Holy crap..

So does that mean like both the sender and the receiving has to have that fibre-optic connection for it to reach that kinda speed?

Yeah, whatever server you're connected to would have to be able to push that much bandwidth.

Also keep in mind geography. The US COULD be a lot faster, had the telecom companies not squandered their tax breaks for R&D, but it's a hell of a lot harder to roll out stuff to our rural people.
