Technology development is moving at a rapid pace. In the future, they will only accelerate their development, which, of course, will have consequences for all of humanity. However, this, as they say, is a completely different story. 
Technological progress has allowed people to learn how to create complex mechanisms that help in performing difficult and dangerous work. For example, today many of them are indispensable in the mining industry and when transporting large loads. Some machines created to perform such tasks are primarily impressive not so much for their functionality as for their gigantic size. Looking at them, it’s hard to believe that a person could develop and build them.
Below are photos of the most amazing and gigantic cars in the world, the sight of which will surely take your breath away. Go!
NASA crawler transporter 
The crawler conveyor weighs 2,400 tons and consists of a platform on four bogies, each of which is equipped with two tracks. This giant does not move quickly - only 3 km/h (provided there is no load). When loaded, the monster barely accelerates to 1.6 km/h.
The vehicle is designed to transport assembled but not fueled spacecraft to the launch complex 
One of the largest mining dump trucks in the world - Caterpillar 797 
The car is actively used in the mining industry. Designed for transporting coal, ores and other minerals. The baby weighs 623 tons.
BelAZ-75710 is a giant capable of easily transporting 450 tons of cargo 
The global economic crisis pushed Belarusian designers to create a machine that would help increase the profitability of mining. To reduce the cost of transporting cargo, it was necessary to build a dump truck with the highest possible load capacity. This is how BelAZ was born.
This is what a dump truck looks like compared to a regular truck 
The assembly of the giant is not a conveyor belt, but a stationary one, almost manually. It takes two to three months. The development of the machine took record time. It took only two years from the preliminary design to leaving the workshop. The weight of the machine is 840 tons.
The largest hydraulic excavator TEREX RH-400 
The car was created by an American engineering company. Its weight is 1000 tons. Can work in any climatic conditions. At one time, an excavator bucket can scoop up 100 tons of cargo.
Liebherr T-282B mining dump truck 
The car's cabin has a display instead of a traditional instrument panel. The handsome guy weighs 252 tons.
Terex 33-19 Titan - previously considered the largest and most heavy-duty vehicle in the world 
The baby has a mass of 235 tons and a carrying capacity of 350 tons.
You can load a lot of these cars into its body 
LeTourneau L-2350 is one of the heftiest wheel loaders 
The weight of the vehicle is 262 tons. It has its own page in the Guinness Book of Records for its size and carrying capacity.
The D575A-3 Super Dozer is the largest and most powerful crawler tractor in the world, weighing 131 tons 
LR 13000 is the most powerful crane in the world with a maximum lifting capacity of 3000 tons 
Looking at this tap, you feel a little uneasy. Do large objects scare you too? Congratulations, you have encountered megalophobia. This is a condition in which a person is inexplicably afraid of large objects, cars and animals.
Big Mask - the world's largest walking excavator 
Big Mask's weight is about 13 thousand tons.
The volume of its bucket is so large that 12 cars can easily fit in it. 
Bucyrus-Erie 1850-B excavator, nicknamed Big Brutus, used for coal mining 
The car was made in a single copy. Its weight is 5500 tons. Today it is in the West Mineral Museum in Kansas.
And here is Big Brutus in full growth 
Bagger 288 – considered the largest existing machine in the world 
This monster was built by a German company back in 1978 
Today it remains the largest excavator in the world and continues to work in one of the quarries in Germany 
Its weight is approximately 13.5 thousand tons, length - 240 meters, height - 96 meters, and width - 46 meters. The main feature of the machine is its rotor. Its height is equal to an eight-story building. The rotor consists of 18 buckets of 6.6 cubic meters each. The wheel makes 48 revolutions per minute.
