1. A single office staple 33 mg

   Heavier than a grain of rice — staples are solid steel wire, and a standard strip glues 210 of them together.

2. A kiwi fruit 75 g

   Originally China's 'mihoutao', it was rebranded by New Zealand exporters in 1959 after their flightless national bird.

3. An average newborn human baby 3.4 kg

   Newborns arrive with about 300 bones; many fuse over the years down to the adult count of 206.

4. 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.

5. A standard car tire, without the rim 10 kg

   About a quarter of a tire's mass is not rubber at all — it is steel belts and textile cord hidden inside the carcass.

6. ENIAC, the first general-purpose electronic computer 27 t

   Its 17,468 vacuum tubes filled a huge room in 1945. The phone in your pocket is literally billions of times faster.
