A whole bunch of pennies.
« on: February 15, 2006, 06:16:30 PM »
Hey ever want to know what a stack of 1 trillion pennies would look like?
well here is your chance.
http://www.kokogiak.com/megapenny/
they use computer simulation to show what a whole bunch of pennies would look like. like 1 billion pennies would look like 5 school busses if stacked correctly. and One quintillion would be a cube measuring 27,300 x 27,300 x 27,300 feet.

just an interesting thing i found.
