In Russia all things are bigger!!! That rocket still ain't got shite on the old SeaDragon which was designed to be launched at sea using the water as the launch pad. Nothing man made could have ever sustained the power it could produce. It was designed to put over 1,000.000lbs into space.
All of this was thought up, and tested in the 50s and 60s. Be rest assured there has been so much innovation , shite we don't know about, that unless it's an end game type of situation, we may never see the results of any of it..
