The world’s largest flag is big enough to cover three football pitches.

(It measures 1,145 feet by 744 feet, weights 5 tons, and was sewn with 44 miles of thread, breaking the previous Guinness World Record held by Lebanon

It took 200 volunteers to roll it out at an airfield in Clinceni, near Bucharest, Romania but it was too heavy to flutter in the wind, so I’m not sure it can be called a flag really.)
