What is 4 metres long?
Eight objects in the Size It Up measurement set run between 3.2 m (10.5 ft) and 4.75 m (15.58 ft), Andean Condor the shortest and Great White Shark the longest. That is 4 m (13.12 ft) give or take a fifth, and Jabba the Hutt comes closest to it, 2.5% under, with one other inside a tenth of it. Every number here is a length, which is the only reason Andean Condor and Great White Shark can be put in the same row: the drawing below holds them to one scale and one length.

Every length in the table falls between 3.2 m and 4.75 m, Andean Condor through to Great White Shark, and all 8 come from the Size It Up measurement set, one real size and one measured axis per object, last checked in September 2026; where each outline comes from is listed on the sources page.
Where each one falls against 4 m
Andean Condor stops 20% short, at 3.2 m (10.5 ft). No outline here is flatter than Andean Condor: 1.01 m of outline for 3.2 m of length. Hippopotamus falls 13% under the mark at 3.5 m (11.48 ft). White Rhinoceros stops 7.5% short, at 3.7 m (12.14 ft).
At 3.9 m (12.8 ft), Jabba the Hutt is 2.5% below it. No outline here runs deeper than Jabba the Hutt: 2.1 m from top to bottom for 3.9 m of length. Kyogre runs 13% over at 4.5 m (14.76 ft). Land Rover Defender 110 and London Black Cab are all recorded at 4.6 m (15.09 ft), 15% over the mark.
Great White Shark runs 19% over at 4.75 m (15.58 ft).
The gaps inside the band
End to end the page runs from Andean Condor at 3.2 m (10.5 ft) to Great White Shark at 4.75 m (15.58 ft), a spread of 48%. Eight objects carry seven distinct figures between them, so some outlines stand exactly level on the drawing: Land Rover Defender 110 and London Black Cab at 4.6 m. The widest step inside the band is between Jabba the Hutt and Kyogre, 15% apart, and every other neighbour is closer than that.
Kyogre, Land Rover Defender 110 and London Black Cab are the tightest three, held inside 2.2% of each other, which is well below what anyone judges by eye. Four of the eight sit under 4 m and four above it, which is where the dashed marker crosses the drawing, splitting the row in half.
Why they do not look the same size
The drawing above puts all eight outlines on one scale, stacked and aligned on the left, so the only thing separating Andean Condor from Great White Shark is the measurement itself. Jabba the Hutt is 2.08 times as deep as Andean Condor on that drawing, 2.1 m against 1.01 m, while the figures that put them both on this page are 22% apart. That is the whole difficulty with judging size by eye: what fills the frame is the outline of Jabba the Hutt, and what puts it on this page is one length of 3.9 m. Jabba the Hutt and Andean Condor are held to the same scale all the same, the way a drawing has to be built before two sizes can be read off it at once.
What each figure covers
Andean Condor is the odd one out here: its 3.2 m is a wingspan, tip to tip, and not a body measured nose to tail. The figure for Hippopotamus is the one for average male, 3.5 m (11.48 ft). The figure for White Rhinoceros is the one for average male, 3.7 m (12.14 ft).
The figure for Land Rover Defender 110 is the one for classic, long wheelbase, 4.6 m (15.09 ft). The figure for Great White Shark is the one for average female, 4.75 m (15.58 ft). Jabba the Hutt is filed under Star Wars and is the one character on the page, so its 3.9 m comes from what the story fixes rather than from a tape measure.
Kyogre and London Black Cab carry no qualifier in the set, so their figure is the plain one, with nothing narrowed down. Every figure above is a length, Andean Condor and Great White Shark included, and the axis is the first thing to check before two sizes are worth putting side by side.
How often they come up in the game
Between them these eight objects have come up 14 times in the daily game, and White Rhinoceros accounts for 4 of those on its own. Seven of them have been drawn no more than twice in all: Andean Condor, Hippopotamus, London Black Cab, Jabba the Hutt, Kyogre, Land Rover Defender 110 and Great White Shark. Not one of these pairs has ever been drawn in the game, and Land Rover Defender 110 against London Black Cab shows why: both are recorded at 4.6 m, which is a coin toss rather than a question.
