You know how fast it looks when someone throws a punch. The average punching speed is about 20 mph. Now, imagine that someone is so big that the length of their arm is 20 miles. If that person throws a 20 mph punch, it’s going to take a whole hour to fully extend their arm. It is still moving the same speed when compared to a normal sized human, but from a distance, it will look very slow.
