Size It Up answer: October 14
The five Mixed silhouettes for October 14, 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 41 ran from a bucket (36.83 cm) to a Falcon 9 (70 m). The widest gap was round 1, Bucket against Smart Fortwo, at 7.3×; the closest call was round 4, Chichen Itza against Christ the Redeemer, only 1.3× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
