Answer: an American school bus measures 10.7 m (length / span), which is about 1.1× smaller than the reference, a Tyrannosaurus rex at 12.3 m.
A full-size American school bus is commonly around 10.7 metres long.
Common miss: players tend to inflate an American school bus when it sits beside a Tyrannosaurus rex — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: a cruiser motorcycle measures 2.2 m (length / span), which is 1.1× as big as the reference, a queen bed at 2 m.
Cruisers are long and low — the raked front fork accounts for most of the extra length over a sport bike.
Common miss: players tend to compress a cruiser motorcycle when it sits beside a queen bed — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: the RMS Titanic measures 269 m (length / span), which is about 1.1× smaller than the reference, a container ship at 300 m.
Titanic was about 269 metres long — shorter than many modern container ships.
Common miss: players tend to inflate the RMS Titanic when it sits beside a container ship — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: a container ship measures 300 m (length / span), which is 1.1× as big as the reference, the RMS Titanic at 269 m.
A large container ship is almost three football fields long.
Common miss: players tend to compress a container ship when it sits beside the RMS Titanic — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: an American pickup truck measures 5.9 m (length / span), which is 1.2× as big as the reference, a farm tractor at 5 m.
A full-size pickup can be nearly six metres long.
Common miss: players tend to compress an American pickup truck when it sits beside a farm tractor — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
