Size Matters

Biggest, fastest, smallest, oldest, heaviest. . . human beings just have an innate fascination with extremes. Here in the U.S. of A., there's one superlative that matters most: size. We like things big (and we cannot lie). Cars, houses, servings, supermarkets, soda, you name it — we are the world headquarters of "the bigger the better" mindset. As you'll see in this quiz, however, the rest of the world just might be catching on to our point of view. 

Nature Likes Big Too

Of course, some of the most impressively sized things in the world are made by nature, not man. From towering redwoods to colossal sea creatures, the planet is full of staggeringly massive living things. "All creatures great and small" and all that. . . but really, isn't it the "great" ones that really thrill us?

Try this Largest Things on Earth quiz to test your knowledge of some of the biggest structures and beings on the planet!
