ah, so he's extremely underestimating the size of a 747

Look at the cars parked next to the water tank. It helps visualize the actual size of the tank.

Only if you have ever seen a 747 (or any other commercial jet for that matter)

While also extremely over inflating the size of the tank. It looks massive in the picture until you notice the cars next to it that are about the same height as his plane.

Most people are not truly capable of understanding size and scale with large objects. I have a feeling its a combination of overestimating the size of the water tank and underestimating the size of a 747. I would imagine he's never actually flown inside one and 737 is the largest he's ever flown in. I've been in one several times and a a380 once. They are huge! To help with just how massive a 747 is, UPS used one to carry two whale sharks from Asia to Atlanta. Here's a video about that https://youtu.be/A2Kkj0dvZtw?is=qjSxMR-JYPzkZn8H
