1. A house dust mite 0.3 mm

   Millions live in the average mattress, feasting on flakes of dead skin, yet they are too small for the naked eye to see.

   Despite being tiny, mustard plants can grow taller than a person, a contrast noted in ancient parables.

3. A honeybee 1.3 cm

   A honeybee beats its wings about 230 times per second, which is what gives it that distinctive buzz.

   The Beetle stayed in production for over 65 years, making it one of the longest-running car designs ever.

5. The Taj Mahal 73 m

   Its white marble appears to change colour through the day, glowing pink at dawn and golden under moonlight.
