China Breeds Nuclear Car Eating Monster Bus

If we go by what we see in the movies, it is usually the Japanese, not the Chinese, who breed giant green atomic monsters hell bent on taking over an entire country. But this isn't a movie, and the behemoth we're looking at today isn't a radioactive mutant dinosaur. It also isn't nuclear (I just thought that sounded cool), but China has undoubtedly created a monster -- a giant, car-swallowing people-carrying "green" monster.

Check out this video of the new Chinese straddling bus, set to be unveiled in Bejing's Mentougou district next August:



OK, the video is pretty lame, and the voice over could definitely have used a little spice from those guys over at Most Extreme Action Challenge. And lets face it, I would crap my pants the first time I was biking or driving down the street and that freaking thing passed over my head. Still, it is a pretty cool idea, and if anyone can make it work, it's the Chinese.

I wonder how it would stand up against Mothra...

Oh, China. They have so many people, they have to rely on something like this...it's pretty much a ridiculous-looking monorail.
