Elephants in the Sky
According to this nifty article from ABCNews, that little fluffy cumulus cloud that floats so carefree way up high actually weighs about the same as 92 elephants.
Calculated by weighing the water in one cubic meter of cloud, multiplying by the number of meters in a given cloud, and then dividing by the weight of an elephant (say 6 tons).
Now that's math in motion.
