London England - Engineers, Volkswagen personnel and bemused passers-by watched open-mouthed as a VW Touareg V10 TDI towed a 155-ton Boeing 747 down the auxiliary runway at Dunsfold airport, 60km south-west of London – not once but seven times.

Granted the Touareg could only pull the 747 at a constant 5 MPH, but still, a stock SUV pulled a 155 ton jet at 5 MPH!

As Jon Stewart would say, "And now, your moment of zen."
