- One standard LEGO brick, on average $0.10
LEGO bricks are molded to a tolerance of four thousandths of a millimeter — and bricks made in 1958 still click with bricks made today.
- An average US movie theater ticket $11
Theaters keep little of this — studios take most of the box office, which is why a bucket of popcorn can cost nearly as much as the seat.
- One M1 Abrams main battle tank $10M
The Abrams runs on a gas turbine — essentially a jet engine — and can burn through roughly four liters of fuel per kilometer.
- Banksy's 'Love is in the Bin,' the painting that shredded itself at auction $25.4M
The hidden shredder jammed halfway, leaving the work half-intact. Three years after the stunt, the 'ruined' piece resold for roughly eighteen times its pre-shred price.
- Stan, one of the most complete T. rex skeletons ever found $31.8M
After the record 2020 sale, Stan's whereabouts were a mystery for years — he eventually surfaced as the future star of a new natural history museum in Abu Dhabi.
- The largest lottery jackpot ever won, a single-ticket Powerball prize $2B
The 2022 winner, a California man, took the lump sum of just under a billion dollars — then made headlines buying multiple mansions.
