This Is The Largest Movable Machine In The World

Behold the largest movable machine in the world: The Overburden Conveyor Bridge F60 is more than half a kilometre long. At over 12,000 tonnes, it’s much larger than the Empire State Building, a Nimitz-class supercarrier or the Bagger 288, the previous record holder.
