Is that actually real and not Ai or dated? If so, that is amazing!

Other sources give crowd size estimates that match with this photo

In photos: "Hands Off!" protesters rally against Trump across the U.S (Axios - though not with any high up photos in NYC in particular)

"DC and NYC are well over 100,000 attendees, each."

The total attendance estimate far surpasses the 500,000 RSVPs organizers counted as of Friday night.

By the numbers: More than 1,100 rallies, visibility events and meetings were scheduled in all 50 states as of Wednesday.
