minus-squarewieson@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·6 months agoImagine one person holding up a pillar of stone, the base area of the person’s width, and higher then one man. So maybe 50cm X 50cm X 300cm of solid stone. That’s more than double the weight of the person itself, probably more than 5 times.
