Elon Musk’s The Boring Company has proposed a $20 billion transatlantic tunnel connecting 

 New York and
London, utilizing Hyperloop technology to achieve travel times of under an hour.

In a shocking (but not entirely surprising) move, Elon Musk has weighed in on the global transportation problem. The tech billionaire, known for his cryptic tweets and controversial opinions, has proposed a $20 billion tunnel connecting New York and London.

“Traffic is too slow!” Musk tweeted. “We need something faster, more efficient, and less expensive.”

Of course, Musk didn’t stop there. He also proposed using Hyperloop technology, a vacuum tube transportation system, to achieve travel times of under an hour. “You could have breakfast in New York and dinner in London,” Musk said.

The reaction on social media was mixed. Some praised Musk for “thinking big,” while others criticized him for coming up with “impractical” and “expensive” ideas.

“Elon Musk should focus on building electric cars and rockets instead of meddling in issues he doesn’t understand,” one Twitter user wrote.

“I don’t think an undersea tunnel is a good idea,” another wrote. “It’s too dangerous.”

It’s unclear at this point whether Musk’s proposal will be implemented. However, one thing is certain: it has sparked a fierce debate on the issue.

And in a related development, Musk also announced that he is developing a new type of submarine that can travel through tunnels. “It’s called ‘The Boring Submarine,’” Musk tweeted. “And it’s available tomorrow.”
