Jerry Clark+FollowThis Chopper Can Move a Mammoth (Literally)Did you know there’s a helicopter out there that can haul more than 20 cars at once? The Mil Mi-26 is basically the moving truck of the skies, used for everything from rescuing people to airlifting woolly mammoths (yes, really). Its superpower? Lifting 44,000 lbs—think earthmovers, emergency gear, or even an entire party bus.
