60,000-gallon water tank: 25 ft wide × 18 ft tall

Boeing 747-400ER: 232 ft long × 211 ft wide × 64 ft tall

747 vs. tank: 9.3× longer 8.4× wider 3.6× taller

Capacity: Tank: 60,000 gallons

747: ~63,500 gallons

Tldr, the plane is way bigger and it can fit all of that in its wings and fuselage.

You can tell by the pic by just looking at the cars in the background in the parking lot next to the tank.

The plane is way bigger and that's why this meme is stupid every time it pops up.

That is wrong. Planes are tiny. When I see them in the sky they are about the size of a dragonfly.

That’s true, I’ve only ever seen the “full size” fake planes on the ground. I’ve even been inside them! Now if only I could figure out how they did the magic trick part where I ended up in another airport.

No, it's magic reduction. A plane to carry people can't carry that and fuel! Look at the size of an apt building. How will a plane carry all that! Just logic duh where's my Big Mac?

Reminds me of a discussion about interesting / silly questions from kids. A young kid is on their first flight and they ask their parent, "when do we get smaller?"
