    A fascinating video has taken social media platform Twitter (now known as X) by storm, showcasing a colossal Hummer H1 'X3,' purportedly three times larger than a regular SUV. The footage captures the awe-inspiring moment when a group of people assists the driver in maneuvering the massive vehicle on a road flanked by police cars with sirens blaring nearby. The Hummer H1 'X3' is reportedly owned by Sheikh Hamad bin Hamdan al Nahyan, a prominent member of the ruling royal family in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

    As disclosed in a South China Morning Post (SCMP) article from November of the preceding year, the extravagant automobile forms a part of the Sheikh's extraordinary car collection. Sheikh Hamad, a billionaire with a staggering net worth exceeding $20 billion, is renowned for his unwavering passion for cars, amassing a vast array of rare and eccentric automotive wonders that include some holding esteemed world records.

    The viral video has garnered an astounding 19 million views and more than 58,000 likes. Astonished viewers took to the comment section to express their admiration and curiosity. One user quipped, "Do they need to close the road every time he takes a drive? Quite convenient!" while another tweeted, "Where can I get my hands on one of these marvels?" A third user playfully dubbed the colossal vehicle as "Humzilla."

    Sheikh Hamad's car collection extends across four impressive museums, sprawled across the UAE, Morocco, and beyond. The media worldwide often splashes headlines about this remarkable collection and its owner, the 74-year-old Sheikh.


    One remarkable highlight from the Sheikh's history with automobiles, as reported by Business Insider, dates back to the early 1990s when he famously requested Mercedes to create an entire fleet of S-classes, each finished in every hue of the rainbow, as a wedding gift.

    The viral video, capturing the awe-inspiring Hummer H1 'X3,' provides a glimpse into the opulent world of Sheikh Hamad bin Hamdan al Nahyan's incredible car collection. With his boundless wealth and passion for automobiles, the Sheikh continues to captivate the world with his automotive extravagance and larger-than-life persona.
