Yeah, but this is Europe. I didn't mean it couldn't be built, just that it's unlikely to make it into reality.
We couldn't even get the Krake mouth pushed through. I'm very skeptical that they would spend that much money on something that is basically elaborate structural theming, rather than the actual ride. I'd love to be wrong though
With Krake, that was a totally different, whilst similar concept. The actual mouth JUST covered the clearance needed by the trains, yet, was still close enough for it not to be deemed safe, which to be honest, is pretty ridiculous, if it passes clearance, surely it's safe, right?
This tunnel, is well, a tunnel. Another factor could actually be that this is an invert, you can actually "touch less" or rather, "TRY to touch less" than you could if say, you tried to grab the theming on a normal coaster. The track above you, no way of attempting to grab below you, only 2 riders per car could even attempt to reach out.
Personally, I think they'll be fine.
