He said “physically” which is wrong because Neutronium. What he possibly meant was “practically” in which Osmium would be the only element you can practically fit in the box since it isn’t possible to synthesize neutronium at that amount or handle that much safely.
Apparently neither of you are aware of how dense I am. ;)
Tariffs on neutronium are out of this world though.
If you stuffed that box with neutronium then:
-
Funny event: it’s so dense the Earth itself is basically a thin gas in comparison and it immediately falls through the floor, the ground, and the mantle to oscillate around in the core.
-
Funny other event: It’s so massive it dominates gravity nearby and everything within a couple of meters gets turned into Cool Physics from aggregating onto an incompressible box really fast and hard. Maybe the nearby atmosphere ignites from being compressed into plasma against the box.
-
Real physics step in and the neutronium immediately decompresses and the mass equivalent of an inland ocean in neutrons and angry high-energy high-mass decay products sterilizes everything through to the horizon with a gamma ray burst, also triggering massive seismic events from the blast as well as killing everything on Earth since the atmosphere is now radioactive and a lot thinner
- Sweet
- Also sweet
- Yikes okay don’t try that then. Though I am tempted to observe the cool physics…

It’s because all the packages have the same domestic weight limit.
Seems silly, but makes sense in the context.
This is the case for most “Dumb laws”: there’s an outlier that becomes kinda silly, but it’s not really worth the effort to change.
I saw one “It’s illegal to hunt Blue Whales in Idaho”. Because it’s illegal to hunt endangered species in Idaho, and Blue Whales are endangered, not because legislators were super concerned about saving Idaho’s whale population.
Wait until I fill that box with quark-gluon plasma.
I’ll go one better.
A (non-spinning uncharged) black hole with diameter 1+5/8th inches (so it fits in the box) has a mass of about 2.3 earths.(Near as I can tell QGP filling the whole box is around a ten billionth of that.)
Of course the box would Very quickly no longer be outside the black hole. QGP would also cause the box to no longer be a container in short order. To put it mildly.
It would also reach its destination very quickly. Or rather the other way around. Free delivery.
