A car-mad sheikh has built the world's biggest Hummer H1, with stairs, a toilet with a sink and a guest space with a 360-degree view spread out over two storeys.
The behemoth vehicle boasts a height of 21.6ft (6.6m), a length of 46ft (14m) and a width of 20ft (6m), and it is fully drivable.
Dubbed the Hummer H1 X3, the incredible monster truck was commissioned by Sheikh Hamad Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan - also known as Rainbow Sheikh - a billionaire member of the Emirati royal family, and the equivalent of the mayor of Abu-Dhabi
It will take pride of place in his Sharjah Off Road History Museum in the UAE, where the sheikh holds the Guinness World record for largest collection of 4x4 vehicles, at 718 models.
How does the massive X3 compare to a regular Hummer?

Hummer H1

Members of the public were left picking up their jaws from the floor when the X3 was driven to the Sharjah Off Road History Museum on public roads.
A small army of workers helped guide and manoeurve the giant contraption down the long highways of the United Arab Emirates on its journey to the Sharjah Off Road History Museum, which was slow going at a top speed of just 20 mile per hour.
Built on the frame of U.S Army LARC-LX steel-hulled amphibious cargo vehicle, it runs with four diesel engines - one for each wheel.
The museum boast it is 'three times bigger than a normal Hummer H1 by scale and 27 times by volume.'

When you have enough money to do whatever in the hell you want!! I wonder how he gets in and out of the damn thing he must have something like airline stairs!!
With class Mr Leno builds new garage.
Same as an original Hummer, but leaves a bigger mess.
As long as the A-10 maintains altitude and doesn’t crash into it.

Probably not an issue. Any sheikh who can afford one can afford to have someone else change the tires.

I find the standard Hum thing ridiculous, so why not go further out the PATH?
