1. A whole wheel of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese 38 kg

   Italian banks accept aging Parmesan wheels as loan collateral, storing thousands of them in climate-controlled vaults.

   A lion's roar can be heard up to 8 km away, thanks to uniquely flat, square-shaped vocal folds.

3. An adult male African bush elephant 6 t

   The largest land animal walks almost silently — its foot pads expand and absorb sound like cushioned trainers.

   Twice the height of the Statue of Liberty, sword included, she is not anchored to her base — held in place by gravity alone.
