It's called the Paris Gun. I watched a special about artillery with my bro on the discovery channel a couple of weeks ago.

Dora (Gutav) and the Paris Gun are not the same thing.

The ~~Germans~~ ~~national socialists~~ Monsters from the hells of WWII made a cannon munted on 2 sets of track which took hell to make,took like 500 men to use,wasted resources,and I don't think it was used either.Bottom line,that most likely is real.
