There's been a lot of talk about the missing 380 tons of explosives. It's kind of like when people talk about $200 billion going to Iraq... it's such a huge number, that it's near impossible to comprehend. So I decided to find out just how much
is 380 tons:
380 metric tons translates into almost 840 thousand pounds, which equals to...
- 2 1/2 Blue Whales (the largest animal)
- 63 elephants
- 350 average sized cars
- 4200 people at 200lbs
- $410 million in $1 bills
- $8.2 billion in $20 bills
one pound of those explosives can bring down an airplane... they have 840 THOUSAND pounds.
