4. I'm sure my eyes would pop out

if I saw it in person, lol! Pictures just don't capture large scale very well.

I saw this massive helicopter many years ago lifting a very large AC unit to a tall building here in Houston. My mouth just dropped. I'd never seen a helicopter so massive and I grew up around them. It literally slowed traffic on the highway with watchers. It was an Erickson Sky Crane helicopter:



The pictures I took and the ones on Google (the one I posted) just don't don't show how darn big it was in person.

6. That was in Germany. New Jersey couldn't handle this.

7. Port Newark has some pretty ugly cranes.

Not that big but impressive.
