You’re not wrong, but photographs do not convey just how big ass some of this shit is and how awesome (literally) it can be to experience the scale in person. The first time I saw the Golden Gate Bridge I got it. I had never once in my life up until that point given a single solitary shit about it, but afterward… Wow. And what a monument to man’s ability to throw safety to the wind and build something fucking huge!

Obligatory xkcd.
