The former Volkswagen CEO Piech drove cross country Wolfsburg to Hamburg in that car in 2002

Volkswagen already released a car couple of years ago for mass production with an automatic engine shutoff and restart when stopping for more then 3secs.
It's the Lupo 3L with 78 miles per gallon or 2.9 liters per 100 km

How come most US-Americans have such an speedo aversion. Homophobia? I would say that speedos are very normal beach clothing at european beaches worn by heterosexuals.
Those basketball pants, preferred in the US, are rare.
Anyhow, I felt quite uncomfortable on my frist day playing beach volleyball in Galveston, TX in my normal european outfit... :)

Alannah Full Ack. Incredible comments on YoutTube.

By the way, thats an railroad tanker from Eva Eisenbahn Verkehrsgesellschaft AG ( railroad traffic corporation ) from Germany. It is used to transport crude and heavy fuel oil from northern german oilfields and refineries.

No heat >50°C involved here.

Nope, the pressure was maximum arround 1000 hPa, as this max you can achieve outside ( vaccum to normal every day air pressure ).
They forgot to ventilate the tank when letting the liquid out of it so the normal athmpsphere pressure crushed the tank.
