An unlikely American duo join forces with Russian and Korean visionaries in their quest to link the United States and Russia via the Bering Strait.
They're the 'Odd Couple' of the new millennium: George Koumal and Joseph Henri. This unlikely American duo are joining forces with an eclectic ensemble of Korean and Russian visionaries in their quest to link Russia and the United States across the Bering Strait. The 85 kilometer tunnel and intercontinental railway would drastically shorten transport times between Asia and North America, connect the continents with fibre-optic cables, power lines and gas pipelines, and provide vital infrastructure for tapping the Arctic's vast natural resources. But the challenges are daunting: ongoing economic and political tensions, 5000 kilometers of missing tracks, and an $85 billion price tag. To name but a few.
During their nearly three decades of ceaseless lobbying, George and Joe have won over high-ranking members of the US Congress, Russian Duma, and South Korean government and industry for their multi-national, intercontinental railway. Convinced that 'The Project' - as they affectionately call it - is the solution to the world's economic, environmental and socio-political woes, the dynamic duo vow to continue their efforts until their utopian vision becomes reality.

George Koumal, 80, a retired tunnel and mining engineer, passed away Saturday, April 16, 2022 with his family by his side. Born and educated in the Czech Republic, with his late wife, and our beloved mother, Alena, he immigrated to New Jersey in 1969. With two suitcases in hand, he and mom embarked on pursuing the meaning of America through hard work, becoming naturalized citizens, and providing for the next generation. He worked on large-scale mining projects throughout the US, Europe and Africa, also obtaining several mining related US patents. In 1992, he founded and served as chairman of the Interhemispheric Bering Strait Tunnel and Railroad Group (IBSTRG) to explore and advance the possibilities of connecting North America and Asia via a railroad tunnel beneath the Bering Strait.
