Having watched a C-5 Galaxy fly low overhead before, I can only imagine how ridiculous this thing must look during take off. "When pigs can fly."

I never get tired of watching this video of an Il-76 transport plane taking off in Australia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLxEHIbHUlY

It's a beautiful hippo flying; pig is not a big enough comparison. Hard to imagine this thing can fly at all.
