Answer: an emperor penguin measures 1.1 m (height), which is 1.1× as big as the reference, an acoustic guitar at 1 m.
The tallest living penguin reaches roughly 1.15 metres.
How people guessed: across 21 runs the typical guess was 1.4 m — 23% too large.
Answer: the Statue of Liberty measures 93 m (height), which is about 1.2× smaller than the reference, a Saturn V rocket at 110.6 m.
The 93 metres include the pedestal and the torch.
How people guessed: across 21 runs the typical guess was 127.2 m — 37% too large. The most common miss is picturing the Statue of Liberty far bigger than a Saturn V rocket really allows.
Answer: a Boeing 747 measures 70.7 m (length / span), which is 1.4× as big as the reference, an Olympic swimming pool at 50 m.
A classic Boeing 747 is roughly 70.7 metres long.
How people guessed: across 21 runs the typical guess was 61.8 m — 13% too small.
Answer: an Argentinosaurus measures 33 m (length / span), which is about 2.1× smaller than the reference, a Boeing 747 at 70.7 m.
Some estimates place this giant at more than 30 metres long.
How people guessed: across 21 runs the typical guess was 49.8 m — 51% too large. The most common miss is picturing an Argentinosaurus far bigger than a Boeing 747 really allows.
Answer: Japan measures 3,000 km (height), which is 1.1× as big as the reference, Greenland at 2,670 km.
Japan’s island arc extends around 3,000 kilometres.
How people guessed: across 21 runs the typical guess was 2,819.7 km — 6% too small.
