"Big as life" nghĩa là gì?

"As big as life" = To như vật thật -> Mô tả một người mà bạn thấy ở một nơi/địa điểm cụ thể và khiến bạn ngạc nhiên/kinh ngạc vô cùng.
Ví dụ
He spoke for 80 minutes with the seal (niêm phong, đánh dấu), big as life, on the wall behind him, but no one noticed (or mentioned) it till way after the event.
There are fewer than 80 southern-resident orcas that visit the waters near Seattle. So there’s a chance, the artist Wyland likes to think, that a pod of whales (một tốp cá voi) will swim past The Edgewater Hotel and see themselves painted on the side, almost as big as life.
I assume this because many of them were flying the Confederate flag (cờ liên minh) and the “Don’t Tread On Me” (đừng giẫm đạp tôi) flag side by side. On the front page of the next edition of The World newspaper from Coos Bay — big as life — was a photo of several dune buggies (xe độc mã đụn cát) in the middle of a race, and all were flying the Confederate flag. In addition, some were flying the “Don’t Tread On Me” flag and one had an upside-down (lật ngược) American Flag (normally signifying a need for help).
