Dog et spørgsmål: hvorfor i København? Kunne dette ikke netop være en smart måde at få arbejdspladser til udkantsdanmark?
Men godt arbejde drenge!
If one watch Emilia van Hauen's video about the Danish culture, it is easy to understand why your audience did not give you the standing ovation you truly deserved. Although your project may seem unattainable and irrelevant, it encompasses the very innovation we need in this ... forsaken country.
I'll certainly do my little part in spreading this video and hopefully attract some reaction from near and far.
See you at the top !

Another idea - that I personally really loved! - was to turn it into a Formula One track.
Think it's a fabulous idea, and finally we know what to use Amager for! =D
I propose we start getting the funds on kickstarter.com immediately, shouldn't take that long.
@all comments.. Thank you so much - we are really overhvelmed by all the positive respons!
You made me think om how to contribute to innovative thinking like is. I want to contribute to creating meaningfull solutions and monuments for future generations.
Thanks again!!

Jeg har dog en lidt anden indgangsvinkel til muligheden. Jeg har nemlig i flere år arbejdet for regeringerne i Abu Dhabi og Dubai, b.la. som kommunikations rådgiver på projekter som disse.
Dubai har i dag store problemer. De ville sætte et stort mærke på verdens kortet ved at bygge de største, dyreste og mest anderledes ting de kunne. De var et nemt (men dyrt) PR stunt, og i et par år gik det OK. Det gik faktisk OK indtil verden så at alt der var bygget var falsk, fordi ideen bag projekterne ikke havde noget med Dubai, dets kultur og dets folk at gøre.
København har historie for at bygge projekter der netop er støbt omkring ting der passer til vores kultur. Dette gælder Den Sorte Diamand, Operahuset og Skuespiller Huset. Vi har også en masse natur, men bjerge er ikke en del af den.
Selv om ideen med bjerget indeholder en masse interessant aspekter, så er grundlaget for ideen… et bjerg i Danmark. Falsk. Derfor vil det være meget svært at få folk til at tro på det. Jeg tror at det altid ville blive set som underholdning, i stedet for noget andet.
Måske kunne alle de fede tanker, ideer og beregninger bag netop denne ide blive flyttet en smule, til noget der havde en større sammenhæng med Danmark, som vi kender det?
Så slip I bare hestene løs og lav et kæmpe-bjerg !!!! Men placér det på Fyn,- der er skisne i Svanninge Bakker.
Det eneste jeg virkelig godt kunne tænke mig at vide var hvad sådan et bjerg skal bygges af. Man kan vel ikke bare stable jord og grus op i de mængder uden at det bare splatter ud...og mig bekendt er det heller ikke muligt at bygge stålskeletter så høje uden at de bryder sammen under egenvægten?
As said on the video Denmark is the world flattest country along with The Netherlands. Everything here is flat; the Round Tower is just 35 metres tall, the little mermaid is actually microscopic and even the language is so flat that the French writer Louis-Ferdinand Céline called it "the ugliest of the all". We, the Danes, do know that.
That is why such an idea is so radical and - to us - extremely visionary. Here is something non-flat. Something out of box of being Danish. Something non-inbetween.
But what do everyone else think? I mean, there are mountains mostly everywhere else. Is this just another fucking mountain or what? Why will the mountain attract foreigners? What kind of attractions can this mountain give, that other mountains can't?
And BTW build it on Saltholm!
It is thinking like this that will bring us to the next level.
Why is this not on TED.com yet? The whole world should hear these guys. I very much agree with one of the comments above. This is exactly what TED's all about.
: )
Jeg synes netop det her er essensen i Ted. Det er idéen i sig selv, der er bærende. Jeg var helt revet med, og synes præsentationen var fuldstændig vidunderlig. Det er imponerende, at de to fyre bare kan stille sig op, og forklare noget så utænkeligt og gøre det så forståeligt på bare 15 minutter.
@stif skov mortensen (30.november): nonono, you get it wrong! We will not place the mountain in the outskirts of denmark. We will USE the outskirts of dk for the mountain. I mean, use Lolland-Falster, why not? We get rid of a totally useless area of dk, while making it possible to ski (yippie!!) in Brondby (which we will get rid of as well. BONUS!). Alternatively we can move Hallandsaasen over from Sweden. Hypothetically this could cause disturbances in the neighbourly relations, but well, that's not really certain, and after all it would be a small price to pay compared to the increase in dk's value as a brand. Should we choose to play it save there is always afrika, where no one would worry about a 50 sqm, 3.5km deep whole in the ground.
No matter how we get the raw material, it will be awesome to have a construction site expanding all over Sjaelland, and sporting 7 nuclear power plants built to fuel the projekt. This way we will both get us some of the disaster tourist, who would have otherwise gone to Chernobyl or Bangladesh, plus the wellness crowd. The latter party will come to treat their skin in Issefjorden, which will become the worlds largest saltwater mudpool. Genuine jacuzzi effect will come later, after about a hundred years of building, when the earth quakes start to kick in.
Geez! When do we begin!

- If you dont start building soon - I will :P
No seriously, please start up some "fond-raising" or the like soon, people from the whole world would support this! And by the way, it would create huge amounts of job opportunities for a series of different people! - Is there some kind of newsletter or the like on this idea?
I am danish living in Berlin and one of the ideas of changing Tempelhof was a 1km mountain. Not far from, where I live. They had different pictures of the mountains and the view over Berlin from the mountain. Also picture of a skiresort and how the nature on the mountain could look like. It looked beautiful and I liked the idea and it seemed realitive realistic.
In Berlin there are many hills (around 100m) made from stuff from the 2. world war (the women build them) and the hills make a wonderful edition to a relative flat city. The mountain in Berlin will not be build, because it would be too expensive (i guess), so they chose another idea.
This 3.5km mountain covering 55km, how stupid is that!? Just outside Copenhagen as the presentation showed!? 55 km would cover Amager a big part of Øresund and Malmö..........I guess it is just a PR stunt, trying to be famous, a philosofic thought, a comercial for a novel, but nothing to do with reality.
And the "amazing" comments are just dreams.
Energi-plus? Nej da.
Oplægsholderen regner selv i "opportunity cost" når han snakker om central park i NY". Så vær venlig også at regn dette med i omkostningerne udover blot konstruktionen selv.
Det er utroligt, at folk stadig ikke forstår, at jo mere vi modarbejder naturen, jo mere belaster vi den og dermed os selv.
Nyt forslag: Plant kæmpemæssige red woods eller andre træsorter i det påtænkte område. Bæredygtig skovdrift vil så kunne sikre en CO2-neutral energiproduktion, ændrede økologiske forhold og meget andet. Plus at resten af verden ville se os som fremsynede naturvenlige fremfor snotdumme.....
