Size It Up Everyday Objects answer: September 12
The five Everyday Objects silhouettes for September 12, 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.
Day 9 ran from a passport (12.5 cm) to a sofa (2.2 m). The widest gap was round 5, Ceiling Fan against Passport, at 11×; the closest call was round 2, Park Bench against Sofa, only 1.2× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
