Anybody know if I can download this with Dezoomify or something?

I doubt you want to. Its probably at least a terabyte.

I doubt the one that they display in their website is a terabyte, because that would require a ton of traffic just to get the render in the browser for each visitor they get.

(I'm sure that isn't the full resolution one, but it still looks pretty good)
