Insane ‘Tube Transport’ Will Zip You From New York to L.A. In 45 Minutes

This ridiculous video envisions a hypothetical future much like the television show Futurama, in which humanity's main method of travel is via super-fast transport tubes.

Using these tubes, patented by the folks at ET3, you could hypothetically travel around the entire world in six hours. Six hours! Now all they need is money to build these things. Kickstarter, anyone?
