- World's Largest FREE-FLYING US Flag, Hiding in Plain Sight
There are several US flags that can claim the title of largest, depending on how you describe them.
Fort Lee, New Jersey is home to the world’s largest free-flying American flag. The 450-pound nylon banner is over 60 feet long and 90 feet wide. Each stripe measures about five feet wide and each star is about four feet in diameter.
The flag is unfurled on George Washington Bridge for nine national holidays: Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, as well as on September 11. It takes about 10 minutes for Port Authority workers to remove the flag from its container inside the bridges's east tower.
By the way, the world’s largest flag, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, known as “superflag” measures 505 feet by 225 feet and weighs 3,000 pounds. It takes 500 people to stretch out and hold. Each star is an astonishing 17 feet high. It was been unfurled many times at events like the Super Bowl, and even hung once from the Hover Dam.
Very nice capture and suprise about that bridge. You learn something new every day.
Very cool!!! 👍👍👍 Thanks for sharing Jeff!
@@BuddBieber thanks, brother!
Who would've known...well done, thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
Great job!
Thanks, Ray!
That's an awesome flag. I have to say, I would feel a bit uncomfortable driving below that thing. Imagine that thing falling onto the moving traffic below? Would be chaotic. Thanks for sharing Jeff.
You can't think about what could possibly go wrong. Otherwise you'd never fly a drone!
Great footage. That was a mission!
Thank you, and thanks for the tip as well.
