| I think we have a winner | ||||||
| add more IRL things like compare it to the size of Poland.
Also more sci fi things would be cool, like warhammer 40k, whatever
| ||||||
| you sir are a nerd. good job!!! | ||||||
| You just took screenshots of merzo.net and made it into a ytmnd. That's a 1 in my book.
BTW, Merzo is NOT a "fantastic website". They got the sizes for the SSD and Death Stars wrong. | ||||||

Wow, a fanboy if there ever was one........ | ||||||
| LOL at DarthWang's comment. pwned. | ||||||
| Cooooooool | ||||||
| 5 cause ya credited that site.
| ||||||
| It would be easier on the eyes if you simply had a note at the bottom indicating the scale. It's hard to maintain a visual reference with the huge black slide coming in every frame. You could also slow it down without making the YTMND longer that way. 5'd for f*cking huge Halo. | ||||||
| Pluto still owns them all. | ||||||
| King Kong looks like Donkey Kong... WHICH MAKES THIS YTMND ALL THE MORE DANGEROUS. Looking at Sean Connery the wrong way dangerous. | ||||||
| I really enjoyed this, watched it a couple of times..... | ||||||
| superbe | ||||||
| 5'd for Ringworld | ||||||
| i wasnt going to vote, but 5'd for darthwang being a douche, also nicely done | ||||||
| Last slide should have a been a "yo mama" | ||||||
| 5'ed for stargate. | ||||||
| too fast, but the music gives this a great mood | ||||||
| looks like we're all still small | ||||||
| 23rd... also staypuft marshmallow man FTW. | ||||||
| Makes me wanna play Katamari Damacy. | ||||||
| what the hell is ringworld | ||||||
| really kinda freaks you out a bit to imagine things so big in RL. music fits the epic feeling. and Halo is rediculously f*cking huge. | ||||||
| Pretty cool. | ||||||
| Should be slower, also win | ||||||
| Awesome!! Some things to add to the website tho - the Sarlacc Pit from ROTJ, the Eye of Doom and maybe some other towers from LOTR (not exactly sci-fi but would be cool to compare size), the spaceship from The Day The Earth Stood Still (classic!!).... also throw in a planet by which to compare the super-size objects, maybe Earth or Mars.... and are the ships from E.T. and Close Encounters of the Third Kind there? If they are I missed 'em, but great work!! | ||||||
| i like it: increase the wait time on the pictures so i can actually get a f*cking glimpse of more than 3 structures | ||||||
| wow interesting! good job! | ||||||
| Neat, but terrible choice of music. | ||||||
| Jeff Russell was a fine reliever for Texas, and an impressive sci-fi nerd. | ||||||
| Insufficient. | ||||||
| Even thought the frames are too fast to read, thoroughly entertaining. | ||||||
| 5'd for Robotech music | ||||||
| star wars ships are 4tw, also, halo | ||||||
| winage | ||||||
| pretty cool, good music... but PLEASE make text slides shorter | ||||||
| hmm others are saying its too fast, maybe im the odd man out | ||||||
| ha, nerd. | ||||||
| -1 because this totally gives an incomprehensable size description of the dyson sphere. The better way would be to compare the death star to some sci fi planetoid, like courisant or something. then put courisant as 1 pixel in comparison with the arc of the dyson sphere on one side of the screen. | ||||||
| I don't get how the shuttle would be as big as an ATAT | ||||||
| Actually its even bigger..that makes no sense. | ||||||
| sufficient | ||||||
| That space slug thing is f*cking HUGE. So is Halo. | ||||||
| Where would Unicron fit in all this? | ||||||
| | ||||||
| 5'd Just for the creepy *ss music. |
+1 | |||||
| Good luck fighting off all the nerds, sir. |
+1 | |||||
| most excellent | ||||||
| 5, -1 for not using CN tower in smaller scale images. us canadians can't make the scale comparisons if we can only reference the empire state building | ||||||
| not to mention you didn't even include unicron... what's wrong with you?? | ||||||
| Would be a lot better if there was more time for those frames. Couldn't read and get a look at them all fast enough. | ||||||
| sweet | ||||||
| Godzilla is that much bigger than the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man? I am skeptical, good sir... | ||||||
| It was cool stuff but the music didn't fit and the clips went by too fast. Give us a chance to soak everything in!!!
But content was cool. | ||||||
| Yow, poor borg-cube, would be painfull to encounter the deathstar for them. | ||||||
| thats a pretty old url and a pretty average YTMND. | ||||||
| I demand the Monolith! | ||||||
| you need a girlfriend. | ||||||
| The monolith can come in almost any size. Just compare TMA-1 (Luna) to TMA-2 (Jupiter) | ||||||
| -1 cuz some of the pictures and text get cut off at the top and bottom, will five if you fix | ||||||
| needs more NEDM and polend... | ||||||
| MOTHA F*CKING RINGWORLD! | ||||||
| 5'd for not forgetting the dyson sphere. Holy crap I'm nerdy | ||||||
| awesome site, and awesome music. is that from the original BT series or one of the many remakes? | ||||||
| God damn. | ||||||
| extreme win | ||||||
| This is America, and we don't use your f*ggy meter/kilometer system. | ||||||
| cool ytmnd. i love ringworld. one of my favorite books. | ||||||
| really cool | ||||||
| ringworld ftw | ||||||
| kickass song | ||||||
| Robotech = teh roxors. You win, super hard | ||||||
| And I was expecting a giant NEDM to appear. | ||||||
| please put in the shot of the LEXX.....please?
:( | ||||||
| Larry Niven. | ||||||
| What's the dyon sphere? That sh*t is huge! | ||||||
| Merzo FTW.
I love that site, it is teh w00tsauce.
Anyway, for the guys bugging him about not including stuff:
HE DIDN'T MAKE MERZO DOT NET F*CKTARDS. | ||||||
| Oh, and I forgot:
YOU WIN FOR MAKING A MERZO SITE | ||||||
| Damn, I keep forgetting to add more stuff in before I click submit:
THE FANBOYS ARE COMING! RUN! RUN! | ||||||
| 3'd for lack of mechs and anime based sci-fi | ||||||
| Argh, I clicked 5, but it says I didn't vote. | ||||||
| Also stay-puft marshmallow man. | ||||||
| HALO IS HUEG, BIGGER THAN DSII?! | ||||||
| 5'd for coolness | ||||||
| You win for including Sulacco and the tanker bug | ||||||
| Nice. Great music too. | ||||||
| 5'd for Dyson Sphere. If the .gif would go a little slower, I would be very grateful. | ||||||
| hurray for sci fi!! | ||||||
| Awesome | ||||||
| I love that website, been to it like a few years ago. Also that music is scary as hell. | ||||||
| Nerds rule. Nice dramatic music too! | ||||||
| 5'd for geeky awesomeness and mighty fine site advertisement. | ||||||
| cool | ||||||
| thank you for making this a site. | ||||||
| +5 for the dyson sphere. pandora's star ftw | ||||||
| If Halo is that big, are there any slides that show the comparative size of the planet Halo orbits? | ||||||
| Mind blowing... only for star trek loving nerds like myself of course. | ||||||
| 5d for spaceships | ||||||
| A good stie but PLEASE slow down the transition speed so people can look at the whole page in less than 3 seconds | ||||||
| i love that site.... visit it often. | ||||||
| my god... thats glorious | ||||||
| s..ss..sss...SUPER STAR DESTROYER O_O | ||||||
| Hohoho. Just make it a bit slower. (Also, wasn't Mon Calamari the planet where Admiral Ackbar was from, rather than his ship?) It's a trap, also c*cks! | ||||||
| 5, would be fav'd if you included all the relatively unknown star destroyers such as the eclipse class and the....damn....s something soverign class?....sh*t im a nerd.... | ||||||
| " Hohoho. Just make it a bit slower. (Also, wasn't Mon Calamari the planet
where Admiral Ackbar was from, rather than his ship?) It's a trap, also
c*cks!" same thing he said and Akbars ship was the "Home One" and in case any of you were wondering i got a life a looong time ago, i just remember too much | ||||||
| Pretty cool, I dig the sound. | ||||||
| OMG!! MY HEAD ASPLODE from all the HUGENESS!!! Also, Nostromo FTW. | ||||||
| why would i care? oh also dont use meters its america just go to larger objects and use miles. | ||||||
| | ||||||
| That was enjoyable | ||||||
| I spent the whole time going "Dyson sphere. WHERE IS THE DYSON SPHERE?!!>!>!>!!>!>@PO!@@! | ||||||
| 5 for epic-ness, +5 for excellent sourcing. You win the internets. | ||||||
| Agree with X605Scorpion about just putting the pixel size at the bottom rather than cutting back and forth. Btw you put a few extra scale slides in near the start. lol
4'ed for the attempt | ||||||
| It's cool... even cooler that you pointed to the site. | ||||||
| sweet | ||||||
