The Antonov An-22 is one of the world’s largest airplanes, and it’s so massive it’s almost scary.
It’s especially scary when it makes the sound you can hear in the video shared by TopFelya.
The ‘problem’ was that the An-22 was struggling to take off in crosswind conditions, which means the plane’s turboprops had to work extra hard, which ultimately led to this hellish sound.
It’s truly impressive, and also a bit eerie – check it out in the clip above!
