The car in the foreground is a regular Hummer. Yes, really. Image Credit: Instagram / shhamadbinhamdan What do you do when even the Hummer H1 is too small for your needs ? You get a Hummer H1 X3, of course - a gargantuan version of the already notoriously large vehicle that has to be seen to be believed.

Measuring a ridiculous 6.6 meters in height and 14 meters in length, the X3 is one of the largest street-legal vehicles in the world and by far the largest Hummer in existence.

It is owned by Sheikh Hamad bin Hamdan Al Nahyan - one of the world's most eccentric car owners.Textual descriptions of this mammoth car just don't do it justice - check out the photograph above or the video below, there are simply no words to describe how ludicrously huge this car is.

As you can imagine, manoeuvring such a beast is no easy task and nor is powering it - each of the four enormous wheels has its own dedicated industrial diesel engine.

There's also the small matter of road space - the X3 is so large that it takes up both sides of a regular two-lane carriageway, making it a rather impractical way to drive to the local supermarket.

All things considered, it's difficult to believe that this thing even exists at all.
