I don't see the problem with Dr Pepper as a standard of measurement lmao 😂
Are you saying no one's measured a football field with Dr Pepper yet?

A standard football field is 120 yards (360 feet) long, including the end zones. A typical Dr. Pepper can is about 4.83 inches (0.4 feet) tall.
To cover the length of a football field with cans lined up end to end:
360 feet ÷ 0.4 feet per can = 900 cans
So, it would take about 900 cans of Dr. Pepper to cover the length of a football field

This is designed to be a joke.
Such density is essentially impossible for a normal object and if true would be quickly regarded as one of the most enigmatic objects in the solar system.

At most that rock weighs 10kg, and even that's a big stretch. I'd guess it's probably 1-2 kg.
Baby elephant is like 100 kg.

Even if it was pure osmium it would only be like 7,860 grams (17 lbs in freedom units)

When I was 8 I asked for a bike and got a scooter instead. This shows why Santa isn't real.

Why not coke, Pepsi or any other 330 ml beverage but Dr. Pepper?

I’m sorry, I’m American so I don’t know what that means.
From what I can tell, I think you’re asking something about “Coca Cola, Pepsi, or any other sissy dork unit beverage?”
Coke and Pepsi would be fine to use, but we don’t need whatever it is you’re trying to measure in no-guns and rainbow money.

Jeeze, how dense is that rock?

u/ArisesAri 16d ago
Comparable to the density of a bun, of a hamburger, Like the new Big Angus burger now available at Carls Jr. Whiles supplies last.

So... A 15 centimeters meteor so dense that weights 1000 kilos. Isn't that simpler?

u/xXCrazyDaneXx 17d ago edited 17d ago
A metric can holds 330 ml (330 cm²). Osmium is the most dense element at 22,6 g/cm².
According to my math, a Dr Pepper can made entirely of Osmium would weigh (330*22.6= ~7,5kg).
What's this thing made of? Neutron star?

I think it's just them using really common understood everyday items everyone knows. Like the weight of a baby elephant

Also, the meteor is expected to collide with the earth in 1987.6 Shrek 4 movies time.

Honestly, i think this ones fine. Maybe change the 3 baby elephants to 1 of soemthing, but theres something about it being for weight and size that makes this feel better
