.....Immense Troll Tower to Move & Conquer! No it's not something from the "World of Warcraft", it's an offshore oil rig, but a mind-numbingly huge one - in 1996 the Troll A platform set the Guinness World Record for 'largest offshore gas platform'.
It stands almost 500 meters tall and weighs 656,000 tons - it's one of the biggest man-made objects ever towed (it has now been dwarfed by Texaco's Petronius platform which is "arguably" the tallest structure in the world.)
.....
656,000 tons soit prés de 80 fois le poids de la tour Eiffel !!
