Tunnel of Death (Lefortovo Tunnel, Russia)



The 3,150 m long Lefortovo Tunnel in Russia is the longest 'in-city' tunnel in all of Europe. There is a river running over it and water leaks at some points. When the temperature reaches minus 38 degrees like it did last winter, the road freezes and the result is the attached video taken during a single day with the tunnel camera.

Re: Tunnel of Death (Lefortovo Tunnel, Russia)

I have seen this video before, and after i watched it again just then, i am still amazed by it, can all these crashes happen in a single day? won't they shut down part of the tunnel to clear up the mess?

That's what text says, but I agree it does seem a bit unbelievable. You'd think they'd close the tunnel if there was ice on the road!
