Every fact in this book is strange but true, brought to life through clever, easy-to-understand visual comparisons that make sense of things almost too bizarre to be real. Inside It Can’t Be True! 2, a hippo’s mouth turns out to be large enough to swallow a car, a single truck can carry the weight of 90 elephants, and a jellyfish can stretch longer than three blue whales end to end. Did you know all the world’s continents could fit inside the Pacific Ocean, or that every tree on Earth could fill North and South America combined? Fascinating CGI artworks bring concepts like these vividly to life throughout. Readers will also discover how much paper it would take to print out the entire World Wide Web (hint: a stack taller than Earth’s own globe), how much sweat a pair of feet produces in a single day (enough to fill a glass), and plenty more besides, in this collection of weird facts and world records spanning planet Earth and space, animals and plants, people, and technology. If you think it can’t be true, this book is here to prove that it is.
