  • Length of the Kentucky Derby horse race (2 km)...more would be 40 x Length of an Olympic swimming pool
  • Length of the longest ski jump ever (2015) (251.5 m)...more would be 5 x Length of an Olympic swimming pool
  • Typical flight of a flying fish (50 m)...more would be about as big as Length of an Olympic swimming pool
  • Length of the Blue Whale skeleton in London's Natural History Museum (25.2 m)...more would be 1/2 of Length of an Olympic swimming pool
  • Length of a cricket pitch (20.12 m)...more would be 2/5 of Length of an Olympic swimming pool
  • Length of a T-65 X-Wing starfighter in the Star Wars movies (12.5 m)...more would be 1/4 of Length of an Olympic swimming pool
