Size It Up answer: August 19

The five Mixed silhouettes for August 19, with the true sizes. If you have not played yet, this page is a spoiler — play these five first, then come back to argue with the numbers.

This pre-launch puzzle ran from a chimpanzee (1.5 m) to the Sun (1,393,000 km). The widest gap was round 3, Olympic Swimming Pool against Bengal Tiger, at 18×; the closest call was round 1, Hippopotamus against King-size Bed, only 1.7× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.

  1. ROUND 1

    Hippopotamus vs King-size Bed (US)

    King-size Bed · reference · 2.03 m
    Hippopotamus · true length · 3.5 m

    1.7× longer than the king-size bed

    A hippo is about 3.5 m long and weighs as much as a small car.

  2. ROUND 2

    Sun vs Jupiter

    Jupiter · reference · 143,000 km
    Sun · true diameter · 1,393,000 km

    9.7× wider than Jupiter

    The Sun is about 1,392,700 km across — 109 Earths side by side.

  3. ROUND 3

    Olympic Swimming Pool vs Bengal Tiger (Male)

    Bengal Tiger · reference · 2.8 m
    Olympic Swimming Pool · true length · 50 m

    18× longer than the Bengal tiger

    An Olympic pool is 50 m long.

  4. ROUND 4

    Moose (Bull) vs Chimpanzee (arm span)

    Chimpanzee · reference · 1.5 m
    Moose · true length · 2.7 m

    1.8× longer than the chimpanzee

    A bull moose is about 2.7 m long — and stands 2.1 m at the shoulder.

  5. ROUND 5

    Saltwater Crocodile (Male) vs Human (Average Adult)

    Human · reference · 1.71 m
    Saltwater Crocodile · true length · 5 m

    2.9× longer than the human
