1. 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.

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

3. A giant Pacific octopus 30 kg

   It can squeeze its entire body through any gap larger than its beak — the only hard part it owns.

   Apollo crews rode atop a small warship's worth of kerosene, hydrogen, and oxygen — most of it burned within minutes.
