Modern international trade is only possible because of our fleets of seafaring cargo ships. And as these gigantic vessels continue to grow to meet the increasing demands of a rapidly globalizing marketplace, so too do their components. Spanning nearly 34 feet in diameter and weighing a stout 113 tons, this massive cargo ship propeller is the largest of its kind (by width, at least) ever built.

They’re undeniably fun, but all remote control toys—particularly those that fly—have one very unfortunate downside in common: they all run out of power too quickly. Whether it’s gas or batteries, they’ll all be grounded before you’re done having fun. But not this tiny flying propeller.
