What the fuck is this thing?

Looks like something out of a Fianl Fantasy game or something.

1. Strip-mining machine. Some of them are even bigger.

Google "Big Muskie" sometime.

[XemaSab]

3. What part of the mining operation

is that critter involved in? Removal of overburden?

[Richard Steele]

5. That would be my guess.

Removing stuff underneath the overburden is usually
handled by smaller machines, because they want a little more
precision once they hit the valuable material.

That one is an East German machine called the Bagger 288;
I found a HUGE pic which shows off its size abit better:

10. Good grief!

I've never seen THAT on Monster Machines on Discovery!

12. unlaunched Reagen star wars doom machine.

Cost three trillion and abandoned..... another Halliburton B&R project.

[WhollyHeretic]

6. I think I need one for my workshop

[havocmom]

7. And we all want a tour of your workshop

Must be impressive

[Lorien]

8. That is one scary machine

Mankind is always finding bigger and better ways to destoy the planet. :-(

[Spacemom]

9. I'm not sure

but it looks like it should belong to this guy. :scared:

[Benfea]

11. Shh! Don't tell anyone!

That particular machine is integral to my sinister plot to replace the world's left shoes with slabs of tuna fish.

I really wish you hadn't posted that picture. Now I have to kill you.

[WCGreen]

13. It's the Green Giants Can opener.....

[AtomicKitten]

14. It's what Lewis Black calls a big f***ing thing.

If you build it, they will come.

[Atmashine]

15. I want one.

You have no chance to survive make your time.

[4morewars]

17. Someone set us up the bomb.

All your base are belong to us !

[LynzM]

16. That thing is pretty unfathomably huge

I cannot believe that something that huge moves, too :scared:

[Robb]

18. Feh.

I mean it's nice and all, but I thought it'd be bigger, mm? :D

[Atmashine]

19. I wonder what it sounds like.

Does it have an 'on' button or use keys?

[fknobbit]

20. Runs on D cells

Not included and sounds like a vibrator.

[11 Bravo]

21. Rush Limbaugh's handy-dandy anal cyst remover.

Once Vietnam was over, he didn't need that convenient little cyst anymore.
