15 Photos That Give Away the Real Size of Objects Only by Comparison

Most of us have the size of certain things imprinted in our minds. Whether it’s an iPhone or a simple book, it’s hard to imagine these things as either tiny or giant. But the truth is, everything can gain a whole new dimension when compared to something else, like a pencil that’s absolutely huge next to a feather.

Now I’ve Seen Everything selected a few fascinating pics that put the true magnitude of things in perspective.
