5:28 'The icy north of the USSR, close to the Antarctic...' someone needs a geography lesson! ;-)

[@vilhelmvilhelm2335]

im guessing he meant the arctic

[@ScrapTechTips]

I picked that up too. he knows something we dont

[@BladeRunner21577]

That train on wheels had a rather more interesting back story than to just be a train where there were no tracks. They used a diesel electric loco because it had a massive generator on it.

[@TLKJOHIO]

BTW: The former Soviet Union is nowhere near the Antarctic which is home to the south pole. Its northern border faces the Arctic.

[@ralfuz777]

I noticed the same thing. Good catch! 😛

[@turblijura]

Exactly! And many people also do not know that Polar bears live only in Arctica (North) and Penguins in Antarctica (South).

[@ohno8569]

@@turblijura your kinda right. But there're penguins in Africa. And people have discovered polar bear/ kodiak hybrids in Canada.

[@paulmarynissen]

turblijura penguins do exist in the northern hemisphere in the wild, they are native to the Galápagos Islands which are in the northern hemisphere.

I like the " train truck " idea funny back in 1996 I took art in school drew cool pictures I was always into the railroads freight trains in Oregon like union Pacific and actually drew one on monster truck tires and called it the " off track "

[@SpawnofChaos]

That's a genius name.

[@wtfisgoingon5188]

Cool stuff. Perhaps you could include a neat piece of history from my home town of Warren NH, USA. Its a Mecury Redstone rocket. It was transported from Florida in the late 60s or early 70s by a fellow who liked the town so much he wanted to give it something unique as a gift. I can remember as a little child in the mid 70s climbing inside it up to the nosecone as a "right of passage". Its still there and is most unusual

I was a bit chuckling when heard circa 5:30 "parts of the USSR close to the ANTARCTIC" maybe did I miss some geography classes????

[@REALRyanCorrado]

You'd be surprised how many people don't realize where the antarctic is, some of them are actually not even that bad at geography, but fail to realize that the arctic and antarctic are on two different sides of the planet :D

Love the quote "the British were involved in the Gulf war" lmfao. The British SAS went in to destroy communication and Sam sites before the Americans went across the bloody desert. Also some 53000 British troops were involved in desert storm along with squadrons of our RAF, so I think we actually played a key part rather than what our American cousins claim.

[@waynerainey2606]

Why do people that talk about flying saucers always bring up the Avro Car? it was nothing more that a horrible (barely) hovercraft. Also the average person of the time would have never seen it. If they would have put a flexible skirt on it, it would have worked a lot better. I spent months working, building and refining a home built one person hovercraft from $3 plans I ordered from the back of popular science in the early 70's and the skirt was the biggest pita

[@GlobeExplore]

Great video.

[@SquishyZoran]

@7:22 I lost it the way you said required!

[@TurtleSauceGaming]

Should've covered the ducks being used as tourist vehicles. Up until like 2010, when the company went bankrupt after a bit of controversy and injured patrons.

[@bobbyt223]

I’m pretty sure you could make a saucer fly just fine if you used mercury in a figure 8 loop and send a current through it. It would provide levitation and then use a combustion engine for propulsion

[@toyotacorolla4268]

A train on wheels 😂😂😂

[@IloveJellow]

well that train vehicle didn't disappear it only evolved if it wasn't for that person creating the base idea we wouldn't have mobile missile platforms like how we have today.

Anyone know what movie is playing at 0:50?

[@tonichecavalari5956]

Of course if one had the funds l think it would be neat to have the " Train-Truck " as a big time Motor home 😎

[@revwroth3698]

All these silly amphibious vehicles and if they'd just put a skirt on the flying saucer they'd have a sweet hovercraft. Hovercraft are still being used and improved.

[@lucianene7741]

That off-road locomotive is one of the stupidest ideas ever. The power/weight ratio required for a train running on smooth tracks using steel wheels is much, much less than that required for a road vehicle using rubber wheels with a lot more rolling resistance, not to mention an off-road vehicle having to overcome unpaved, uneven, muddy or snowy terrain. I'd be surprised if that vehicle could pull its own weight in such environment, nevermind any cargo.

[@joachimhupe4018]

These lokomotives do not really way more than 100 tons. Even if the lokonotive would onely have 4000 hp it would still have a power to weight rathio of 40 hp/T wich is almoast 3 times as mutch as the M4 Sherman tank. So it would have no problemes pulling not onely it self but probably a ton of cargo.

[@lucianene7741]

@Mo no I'm talking power, not torque. Torque can be multiplied via reduction gear, power cannot.

[@lucianene7741]

@Mo no 2000hp/100t is about 20hp/ton. Enough to pull its own weight at a snail's pace, but not much else.
