The Diomede Islands cut that distance in half. I’ve taken Shinkansen 🚅 connecting Kyushu to Honshu Island a dozen times in my lifetime shows that tunnels under the ocean are successful. The depth of the ocean in Japan is between the islands is 120 ft. Between Alaska and Russia at the closest point, it is 206 ft so it is very feasible
There's no way in hell a bridge would work across that body of water, have you ever been there?
52 miles of tunnel to connect Alaska to Russia
52 miles through the roughest water filled with huge ice chunks and tides. There's no way.
