40%

my family has this inside joke… when i was little-ish (except i actually probably wasn’t very little at all. it probably happened like several years ago) i said that i had heard somewhere that human heads make up 40% of their body weight.

we joke about this a lot now because, well, it’s completely hilarious. for someone weighing 150 pounds, their head alone would weigh freaking 60 pounds.

so yeah. just thought i’d share that with you. it’s always really funny when it’s brought up in conversation with them.
