These things are gigantic. Each blade is approximately 100 yards long. They had to shut down highways just to move the pieces. It's a little un-nerving to be standing below them and hear (and feel) the "WHOOSH, WHOOSH, WHOOSH" as the blades go by. (5 years and 3369 days ago)
100 yards long?! Good god, this is huge! It's sad that there is nothing around it to compare.

Thanks for the comment, Mikaelg. I agree something for scale would have been good (I have some with the windmills towering over full grown trees) but they are cleared about a couple of hundred yards around the base of each one so I couldn't look "up" and get any other objects in at the same time.
