The kinetic force of the cargo ship Dali when it destroyed the Key Bridge in Baltimore was estimated to be between 12 million newtons and upward of 100 million newtons.

the SpaceX Falcon Heavy also exert forces on the scale of tens of millions of newtons during launch. The Falcon Heavy, for example, can produce over 22 million newtons of thrust at liftoff, enabling it to carry heavy payloads into orbit or beyond.
