This line reminds me of Arabian Nights episodes in which the black obelisk cuts the kingdom of Agraba
One day, the Saudi Crown Prince is chilling, watching a sci-fi flick like 'Black Mirror,' you know, those futuristic cities with all the fancy gadgets and sleek designs. And then, bam! He decides, 'Why not build this for real?' Just like that, an architect's wildest dream becomes his next big project.
Chile… the ghetto
I don’t think anyone with a basic education ever thought this project was possible.
A BUNCH OF RICH MUSLIMS WHICH KEEP THE OIL MONEY AND DO NOT SHARE exempt for eating eating caviar every day and this line looks like when i have crap and wipe my ass
This is like something I’d think up in kindergarten smh what are they doing over there where are the professionals
This is like something I’d think up in kindergarten 😂 what are they doing over there where are the professionals
It is Saudia Arabia,
It's 2 trillion dollars,
It is a line city.
That's why its failing. Self explanatory really.
I don't want to raise any sand,excuse the pun, but is such extravagance condoned by the Koran? I mean, of the millions of Muslims living in poverty, building a project such as this,would be considered sinful?
Now its going to be a mile or less lol big fail
I wonder if even one quarter will be built
I mean, I guess if you have all the money in the world at least for the next 20 years, you might as well.
Bro thinks he’s playing Minecraft
Saudis: thought a line is a shortest distance between two points.
Me: "folds paper", that's where you're wrong kiddo
Horrible idea 😂
WERE ALSO TALKING ABOUT A PEOPLE THAT HAVE SO MUCH MONEY THAT 21 TRIL IS CHUMP CHANGE
Funny how no one has the nerve to tell you that your ideas are idiotic when you're an absolute monarch.
Next up, reallifelore explains why Russia is cold
Their gdp may be small, but their oil industy isnt small
Shocking that a megalomaniac, gaudy, ridiculous project isn't working out. Who could have seen this coming?
4:17 BRAZIL MENTIONED
Too much oil will drive you mad.
ballshitters pardise

So many ideas in the world i like, but egotistical abusive people fuck it up. I like the cybertruck, but they fucked it. I like the Neom projects, but they fucked it.
No cars can’t leave
I wonder if people were crying like this, when the pyramids were built.
"across 170 km in 20min" .. so what if it's 20 min .. or 60 min .. or 2 hours ..
You muppets just gelly that you aren't doing anything amazing. No one is building amazing projects except Saudi's….. Where's your castle building now days?? GONE. You gave up.
Raising gas prices is one of two american cardinal sins.
I swear these countries saw Dubai and said we can do one better. Without realizing it took Dubai 30 years, and it has a ton of problems. This project gives, spoiled rich kid with nothing but yes men around. Having to approve his stupid fantasy and no one can talk logic to him. Since he pretty much kills anyone who tries to tell him. All that money he has thrown could have helped his country so much by now
just jealous
Having Fox news as high factuality should tell y’all enough…
And I don’t trust CNN either. These are purposefully opinion driven news networks to make people fight each each other instead of the ones who actually run the world.
Saudi Arabia is so very desperate that they will sign off any and all ridiculous project.
34:11 who tf thought that key was a good idea, both extremes are essentially the same colour!
Such imagination and ambition! Kinda like a 5 year old kid.
Building a city in the middle of nowhere with no water, no logistics, no infrastructure, no transportation and designed to be an overcrowded bazaar with the estimated cost to be over $220,000 for each resident. On top of that its just a line. Can someone please give the Saudi royal family a copy of SimCity.
Look up "straight line missions". You're welcome. The mission for this would be a 20 minute real time video of a high speed train ride 😂
The "it's like the pyramids" is definitely the line that sold this project to this mini-Pharaoh.
Didn't they already realize this is not gonna happen. The project is still happening but I believe it's going to be 1 mile wide now
They have tried several crazy things that have failed this is just the latest failure. I for one am glad it failed, these environmentalist cities are not anything I want.
Am I the only person who wants this project to succeed? I remember a time where the world who have love this and helped instead hoping for its demise.
Very well broken down. For once I understand exactly whats going on
The worst thing in this situation is , you can’t even have a beer after work.
When they run out of oil they are fuc$ed.
Captain Nemo is like, the F$&K! MBS. Well i guess its better then Saudi Arabia trying to built a Dragon Ball themed park.
What's the point of planning it 170 km long and start building in the middle of the desert ?? Build 5 km first near the gulf and then if its worth it continue further.
And remember, the sudi and usa are buddies……for some fucking reason.
