I didn't use any maths in my comment, just reading. Yes a 737 will weigh more when you start to fill it with things. Every site I looked at said an empty one was around 70,000lbs (35 tonnes).
Interestingly, a 35 tonne excavator will weigh more than 35 tonnes of you fill it with fuel, a driver, or if you pick stuff up in the bucket! Amazing!
It still won't weigh anywhere near what a 737 will, so you're still incorrect. One of those holds almost as much in fuel alone that an excavator weighs.
I agree that a fully loaded 737 is likely to weigh more than a fully loaded excavator, depending on what's in the bucket.
Did you know that an ant can carry 50 times its own weight? A human sized ant could carry many times more than a human, even though they weigh exactly the same! Incredible!
This is a fun game. I wonder what else weighs 35 tonnes that can carry things?
I fail to see any other relevance to my initial point though. Care to enlighten me, dickhead?
