Everything is relative. For example, Shaq might not look tall when he's on camera next to other basketball players and Simone Biles might not seem short when you see her competing against other gymnasts but put them near each other and you'll instantly get an idea of their size.
So to broaden your understanding of the world, we at Bored Panda put together a new list of interesting comparison pictures from all sorts of different areas, including nature, technology, and social issues. It's a series we've been working on for a while too; if you like scrolling through these images, fire up our earlier publications here, here, and here. Maybe you missed some!

After Growing My Hair Out For Nearly 3 Years, I Finally Decided To Cut And Donate It This Month
For anyone considering this, do a little research before you decide where to donate. Some of the "charities" actually charge really high prices for the people who need them. My family discovered this when my sister developed alopecia universalis that 9 years old.

Men's Beach-Handball Teams Uniform vs. The Women's Uniform
It's absolutely disgusting that the female handball team were fined for wearing similar to the men's instead of their usual bikini style clothes. The committee in charge of those rules should be ashamed of themselves.

Daughter’s Science Experiment. The Plants Hear Her Voice Recorded On A Loop. The One On The Far Left Hears Mean Comments, The One On The Far Right Hears Loving Comments
My goal this year is to speak life.
The plant on the right gets substantially more sunlight than the plant on the left with the shadow of the shed but sure. (That being said, research does show that the gentle vibrations of normal, calm voices can stimulate plant growth. Google it.)
This Massive Bald Eagle Feather I Found
Genuine question: seeing as they are a protected species and the feathers have cultural significance, would that person be allowed to keep that feather?

Women’s Clothing Sizes Are Nonsense. Both Size 32
It is ridiculous and it’s really harmful for your self stem. The other day I saw a L T-shirt that was 1Cm wider than a xxs. Two trousers of the same size, one fit perfectly and the other didn’t pass my tights. I bought in the same store a xxL and a L that were the same size (of a normal L). I felt horrible when I needed a xxL until I measured it with the other shirt I got. It’s horrible for the self steam.

A lot of these have appeared on BP previously, despite the claim in the title.
They recycle quite often. I guess Reddit was a bust this week
Load More Replies...Very much enjoyed this feed. Thanks for sharing. A lot of interesting things to see and learned a lot about things.
The 'hand for scale' thing was funny with the tiny banana but soon became very much overdone.
Your right. As soon as everyone got hands...it got out of hand
Load More Replies...When they say hand for scale, I have huge hands and my girlfriends hand next to mine (for scale lol) her fingers end at my first bend in fingers. She saysvi have shovels not hands
