By weight · Order from lightest to heaviest.

1. A black garden ant worker 1.5 mg

   Ants can carry 10 to 50 times their own body weight — the square-cube law makes tiny bodies absurdly strong for their size.

2. An average adult domestic cat 4.2 kg

   Cats purr at frequencies between 25 and 150 Hz — a range some studies suggest can promote bone and tissue healing.

3. The FIFA World Cup Trophy 6.2 kg

   Winners only keep a gold-plated replica; the 18-karat original stays with FIFA and gets each champion engraved on its base.

4. The Statue of Liberty 204 t

   Her copper skin is only about as thick as two pennies; the green color is a patina that took roughly 30 years to develop.

5. A fully loaded Triple-E class container ship 250K t

   It hauls around 18,000 containers with a crew of only about 22 — fewer people than a fast-food restaurant shift.

6. The Great Pyramid of Giza 5.8M t

   Roughly 2.3 million stone blocks were stacked over about 20 years — averaging a block placed every few minutes of every workday.
