*If I stacked all of my CDs on top of each other the Pile would be over 6 Storeys high

(According to my appalling calculations)
Any comparisons you would like to share?
That's a lot of CD's. How many do you have? I can't seem to get the two measurements to tally. I'd guess from the weight that there'd be ~20,000 but that would be a stack much higher than 6 storeys. - ... and weigh over 2tonnes

Forgotten now 
I think I used 1cm as the height of CDs and about 2.5lbs as the weight.
I'm presuming that I am an idiot and my calculations are horrendously inaccurate


Standard case is 10mm thick, a new, single case is 5 mm thick.....

Very rough calulation:
About 100 Soldiers died in the Afganistan/Iraq conflict this year, which as I'm sure we all agree is a terrible loss to the families concerned and 100 lives too many.
Taking that as average, we would have to have 3 "Gulf war 2"s running side by side every year from the time of Jesus in order to have the same number of casualties as on the FIRST DAY of the Battle of the Somme.
Kinda puts the numbers in perspective.
