The problem is when the idea comes and some follow you can’t stop it.

Tourism can be a profitable industry- in destination locations with access to easy travel for large number of populations...like many European cities, Vegas, Orlando, Carribean resorts, etc. To be a primary industry- you need lots of cheap labor, great weather, and the corresponding housing and transportation needed for the working folks. Easy flights, trains etc. to get there- like Vegas- cheap flights all day long and lots of reasonably close by high population cities. None of these criterium seem to be in place for these projects. They are assuming that extremely wealthy peoples will flock there- well there isn't enough extremely wealthy people to fulfill this, especially if middle east tycoons oil money dries up over the next 40 years- which it likely will- that is why they are seeking diversity of income sources. Diversity of income would be other industries- like manufacturing, technology, health care, agricultural, finance/banking, etc. And let's be honest- lots of people vacation for the sights, but many also want some sins, like alcohol, partying, gambling, bikini clad beaches, chasing woman- or men- which is not really something you're going to find much of in the middle east. Weather and safety- political safety- are also considerations for non-middle east tourists. I don't see this ending well, but fun to watch.
When i think of vacation destinations, Saudi Arabia is always top of the list ... Pretty sure said no one ever. The ultra wealthy may go a time or two because they've exhausted other places, but thats about it.
There`s no point @ all to go to a country like Saudi arabia there`s nothing there, the people are stuck up & stupid. countries like Brazil Colombia would be a much better choice.
Dude that is one of the most asinine comments I have ever seen. Literally millions and millions of people visit Saudi Arabia every single year for the hajj. For Muslims around the world who have not made the trip, you bet your ass it is at the VER Y top of the list. Do your research.
At least the Saudis and the Emirates are thinking big and bold. What people may not be taking into account is that these wealthy countries will outlast other countries that will fail because their old infrastructure will not survive the climate changes.
Just no. They're building megaprojects for the rich, not to survive climate change. They're just mega rich and want to flex their wealth in the face of the rest of the world, forgetting that this is not sustainable. Oil won't last forever and so won't their money.
So rich women and even not so rich women want to vacation in a place where they are treated as property. Go ahead and go with just your hair/head uncovered! much less consume a mixed drink in a bikini. Yeah, real vacation in a medieval religious fanatic hell hole.

@jerrynadler2883 And all we have seen from the West is War here, War there. What we ABSOLUTELY don't need is WW3, but here we are in the brink of it and your griping with this? This is the least of our worries and every penny that don't go to War is good in my books. BTW, real cities as what? These 15 minute cities? SA have a more thriving middle class than most of Europe, these they are shrinking at alarmingly rates. This is not even in the top 100 of SA worst worries whit what is going on.
If they are going to build The Line at all (which they really should not if they were sensible) they should fully construct about 100-200 meters of it, move people in to live and see if it is even remotely workable in real life...and not just in idealized rendered graphical images.

Really sad that KSA chose to pursue these glass box vanity projects instead of building vernacular style buildings, or expanding nuclear-powered water desalination, or anything else worthwhile.

Ecological impact on the plants and animals in the deserted? All the rain Forrest will be gone I guess. 🙄😂😂😂 They are building it on the foot of the mountain, nothing is going to be lost.
Since there won't be any cars allowed in the line, it makes me wonder what will happen if a fire breaks out in one of the buildings. It seems that they haven't given this disaster scenario any thought and if a fire did break out, it seems that it would simple spread quickly and a great tragedy would occur. Any thoughts on this?
It’s gonna be all steel and concrete. Fire can’t spread from unit to unit. And I’m sure at a bare minimum there will be some basic fire suppression system in place that will help suppress any fires in any isolated unit.
Good sentence. These projects also remind me of the story of Tower of Babylon. And peaceful as I am, I don't think there is a bad evil plan behind such projects, it's the monetary system that somehow rewards these grazy useless projects.
Somehow I don't think transportation is their goal. I think control is the prize. What do you think they'd do if you started disobeying them? Who controls the doors, the power, the transportation, the money, the stores, the hospitals? Is that something you want to live in?
@@did_I_hurt_you_feefees I'm saying that they're just building it for incredibly quick transit as a tourist attraction, not as a city. After that, the city would be constructed beside it.
The 'Line', is situated on a continental fault line between two tectonic plates, you can see the fault line running the length of the Red sea, an earthquake could potentially undo all of it sending a tsunami up the length of the construction with no place to go for millions of people, remember the narrower the space the higher the wave depending on the severity of the quake and water displacement. The gulf of Aqaba is also a fault line that runs through to the dead sea etc.
The 9 million people living in The Line - what will they do? It is located in a very remote desert, with currently hardly any economic activity. And why wasn't it built closer to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia's largest city, a few hundred km further south on the red sea?
As ridiculous as these projects are and especially The Line, its still immensely impressive just the work theyve been able to do the past year, looking on sattelite images, i currently can measure a total of 153km which has almost been completely excavated. Such distance is just absolutely insane.

Spending extra money to integrate into mountains in remote areas, and building buildings that have extra structurally non useable areas makes perfect sense in saving the planet. Rich people are such hypocrites.
The problem is when the idea comes and some follow you can’t stop it.
I was sitting in bathroom thinking what it will be if I say I can be a “fully workable” woman and my girlfriend could be “fully workable” man in five years saying she can breed me and I can have a child because of super great technology that will be able to produce human intimate parts. How does it feel when small group will be attracted to this with such a nice words and tone? It is just an example but believe me or not it started from saying that we are dying because of heat and pollution. Many people have no idea why the hell they say about it getting even more money than before by saying that.
And as in mass scale you will say idea to people with having some respect around you built earlier you will face approbation from others. That’s how it works.

The catch is that there's a really tiny chance of 100% that none of these projects will be finished. Ever.
I have a friend who's always working on six or seven projects at the same time ...over the years I have yet to see him finish anything.
Guilty
Most tourists will never be able to afford the price level needed to get these projects off the ground.
And that is the injustice.
and the tourists that can afford it do not want to go to saudi arabia.

Tourism can be a profitable industry- in destination locations with access to easy travel for large number of populations...like many European cities, Vegas, Orlando, Carribean resorts, etc. To be a primary industry- you need lots of cheap labor, great weather, and the corresponding housing and transportation needed for the working folks. Easy flights, trains etc. to get there- like Vegas- cheap flights all day long and lots of reasonably close by high population cities. None of these criterium seem to be in place for these projects. They are assuming that extremely wealthy peoples will flock there- well there isn't enough extremely wealthy people to fulfill this, especially if middle east tycoons oil money dries up over the next 40 years- which it likely will- that is why they are seeking diversity of income sources. Diversity of income would be other industries- like manufacturing, technology, health care, agricultural, finance/banking, etc. And let's be honest- lots of people vacation for the sights, but many also want some sins, like alcohol, partying, gambling, bikini clad beaches, chasing woman- or men- which is not really something you're going to find much of in the middle east. Weather and safety- political safety- are also considerations for non-middle east tourists. I don't see this ending well, but fun to watch.
Oh no, they wouldn't want to invest in industry and manufacturing. Too much hard work. Arabs are known to be very shy of hard work .
I still don't get what the con game is with The Line. A 500m skyscraper 160km long is impossible.
They care so massively about how they look and fail to realize what matters is how they act.
The Linet is the epitome of the saying "more money than brains". A bad idea for a number of reasons.
When i think of vacation destinations, Saudi Arabia is always top of the list ... Pretty sure said no one ever. The ultra wealthy may go a time or two because they've exhausted other places, but thats about it.

Man this is some super villain stuff. I feel for whoever they trick into moving into these slave pens
If they are going to build The Line at all (which they really should not if they were sensible) they should fully construct about 100-200 meters of it, move people in to live and see if it is even remotely workable in real life...and not just in idealized rendered graphical images.

1) Get cancelled and nobody will ever live on it
2) Get completed, but the mega-rich won't want to live in it, so it gets abandoned, then it attracts homeless people and poor people.

Really sad that KSA chose to pursue these glass box vanity projects instead of building vernacular style buildings, or expanding nuclear-powered water desalination, or anything else worthwhile.
These projects all look like English 'Folies' (folie à deux) where a wealthy person meets an architect that has great wondrous ideas but little sense of the practical world. Noam, where will the water be piped from and waste sent? The transport to/from airports, delivery of thousands of tons of food each day...? Will every one travel by PT, and fast train? What is the advantage of putting living space in a straight line, when every civilization has always spread out in a plain (two dimensions not one dimension).
Yep ..but follies were generally quite small building projects 🤷
The self-centered cultural bias of the super wealthy around the world is so skewed from reality that it's somewhat amusing how blind they are when conceiving of these kinds of multi-billion projects. No useful research performed. The whole thing is just ego.

Since there won't be any cars allowed in the line, it makes me wonder what will happen if a fire breaks out in one of the buildings.

I agree- that makes me anxious just thinking about it.

Somehow I don't think transportation is their goal. I think control is the prize. What do you think they'd do if you started disobeying them? Who controls the doors, the power, the transportation, the money, the stores, the hospitals? Is that something you want to live in?
@@did_I_hurt_you_feefees I'm saying that they're just building it for incredibly quick transit as a tourist attraction, not as a city. After that, the city would be constructed beside it.
The 'Line', is situated on a continental fault line between two tectonic plates, you can see the fault line running the length of the Red sea, an earthquake could potentially undo all of it sending a tsunami up the length of the construction with no place to go for millions of people, remember the narrower the space the higher the wave depending on the severity of the quake and water displacement. The gulf of Aqaba is also a fault line that runs through to the dead sea etc.
The 9 million people living in The Line - what will they do? It is located in a very remote desert, with currently hardly any economic activity. And why wasn't it built closer to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia's largest city, a few hundred km further south on the red sea?
Maybe its just the future prison for all the uncompliants left after others were died.
