Unbelievable footage shows Boeing 747-8 and Antonov An-124 side by side in a battle for the title of biggest beast

The Boeing 747-8 and the Antonov An-124 look massive, especially in a side-by-side comparison.

In the clip above, captured by TopFelya at Farnborough International Airshow, we can see the difference between the 76-meter 747-8 and 69-meter An-124.

The 747 is longer, but the An-124 is taller and has a much larger wingspan.
