I am from Denmark, and here we do not use Disneyland as a measurement unit, as this is an imperial unit. We use Legoland, as this is the official SI-unit for measuring airport size.

Just as I was getting used to 'football fields' units, then boom! 2.3 pentagons.

"We've compared them to EASILY RELATABLE references to reveal their actual size." Easily relatable like pentagons and Antonov an-225s.

Singapore Changi might not be the biggest, but it is the best experience I've had in an airport. It's like a tourist destination on its own.

“Size is important but it’s what you do with it” I see you b1m

i'm in awe of all these "take off" and "flight" puns

I grew up near Denver and always thought DIA was a fairly normal aiport. I now realize that it is one of the biggest airports in the world. its absolutely crazy how big it is. over half the flights are in terminals completely separate from the main building. you have to take a train to get there. while not unique to Denver, it still blows my mind. the fact that security is in a massive tent just because we can is rediculous. even outside of the official grounds of the airport there are parking services. private hangars, and tons of other things. its pretty crazy what humans have built just so that we can get from 1 place to another in a few hours.

Not to mention the truly gargantuan network of tunnels that network the entire thing together.

I used to watch a lot of documentaries on Discovery channel back when cable tv was a thing. I gotta say, this video was at that level of quality and production!! Gave me flashbacks of my childhood!! Great job and thank you!!

"We're gonna put these sizes you can't easily comprehend into different units that you definitely can't comprehend"

Please don't send every Brit on holiday at the same time. We don't have enough alcohol for that.

Memphis's Fedex hub is massive it connects our medium sized city to cities like Shanghai, Osaka, Dubai, Paris, Milan, Cologne

I live in ATL and the airport is just as big as our downtown.

[baxterismyyoutubename]

Your voice sounds like so professional and a pleasant to hear for my ears.

[TheLiamster]

1:24 I love how there is a confused John Travolta in the airport.
