Thunderf00t is a jackass, and I haven't seen the specific claims made in his video, but The Boring Company is actually a joke.
The tunnel is completely normal, nothing special about it at all. No magic low cost boring machine or special construction techniques. The Chinese dig them much, much faster for their metro systems.
The idea of using cars instead of trains is also dumb. Worse capacity, a lot more staff because Full Self Driving doesn't work even in a carefully controlled environment with one single file lane of traffic. As a novelty ride it's pretty mediocre.
