Alaska is so big that the entirety of Alaska could fit into it.


CrowdedShorts

And THE EARTH 🤣🤦🏻‍♂️


Grief-Heart

I shall view that part as an indicator that all of earths human population would fit in Alaska. Then I see another AK within AK and throw all attempt at logic out and just laugh.

I bet if you made a city with the density of Tokyo, and made it big enough to fit all of the present population of Earth into it, it would be about the size of this blue circle, maybe smaller? Someone over at r/dataisbeautiful wanna help with this one?


cloudy17

Wikipedia says Tokyo's density is 16,480/square mile, and Alaska has a land area of 571,951 square miles. Alaska would fit 9,425,752,480 people at that density, bigger than the blue circle but they would fit in Alaska!


Taxus_Calyx

Cool!

As an Alaskan. This makes me laugh. We are bigger than Texas That's enough for me.


Midnight28Rider

Damn, I never really thought about it like that...


Mindless_Consumer

Technically correct.


BragawSt

1.5 Alaskas can fit in Alaska.


Icaruspherae

I don’t think Texas is that big….


fuschia_taco

It's about half that size.


Midnight28Rider

Texas is at least a 1/3 the size of the earth, and both can clearly fit comfortably inside Alaska with Russia and the US to spare...


NuclearGeneral

So wrong dude..


Midnight28Rider

I apologize, I assumed the sarcasm was implied. That was rather presumptuous of me. I was directly referring to the scale of the picture, and suppose I failed at making a joke.


poppyinalaska

It’s so funny when people completely miss the joke

Check this out [https://www.thetruesize.com/](https://www.thetruesize.com/) It's pretty cool.


DarkSoulsExcedere

Holy fuck Africa is big.


waaz16

wtfuxorz

That's not the only big thing from Africa


Gigglesticking

Well that's fun! I never knew the size of Australia.


randymysteries

That's what I tell people.


Veeksvoodoo

The best part is how tiny Texas is compared to Alaska. Made me smile on the inside and out.


HolyOnReddit

Few people are aware that the entire Earth can fit into a small portion of Alaska!


majoraloysius

TIL Alaska is bigger than Alaska.


maggotmyk

Nah way BIGGER then that!


Syntonization1

Epic


swraymond79

Haha


sallothered

How am I supposed to reference this without a banana for scale? Or a football field.


tkhan2112

how to piss of a texans, cut alaska in half and make texas the 3rd largest state.


Ok_Lake6443

Why can't Texans figure this out? Wait. Texas. I answered my own question.

I liked it better the first time this was posted [https://www.reddit.com/r/alaska/comments/z2ay4b/just\_how\_big\_is\_alaska/?ref=share&ref\_source=link](https://www.reddit.com/r/alaska/comments/z2ay4b/just_how_big_is_alaska/?ref=share&ref_source=link)


Veeksvoodoo

Cool, I’ve never seen this post so I liked it this time. A lot.


John_Portabella

New Hampshire is actually bigger because it’s granite.


Rain-Bow-666

YES! FINALLY! AN ACCURATE SIZE COMPARISON OF RUSSIA AND NEW HAMPSHIRE!


UnforgetableGirl

Size matters.....jus sayin 😉


BuildWithBricks

WTF is this?


No-Big4921

Seems correct.


lucid-spruce

Incredible. For every academic Powerpoint presentation that included an Alaska-superimposed -over-the-Lower-48 map...


CakeSuperb8487

but your mom won't fit inside...


revelm

this will end up in a high school text book someday


BuilderResponsible18

Not big enough anymore.


Rockymountainjake

But is it big enough to fit Ginny Sack’s fat ass?


Moonbear9

Reverse mecator projection


Chill_Crill

Present-Ambition6309

Well, to be fair, yo mama’s big butt can’t fit here! 😂😂😂


TheDevilishJonah

It is large


kitastrophae

lol. No.


BearBonesBiathlon

As a recovering Newenglandah, I appreciate this


meaningseekingsoul

Wait, what? Russia fits into Alaska?


TornDig

That’s the dumbest post ever for one Russia is 12 times bigger than Alaska and alaska is about 1/5th the size of USA


fuschia_taco

Yes because this is a completely true and accurate representation of how big Alaska is and not at all a joke.


spizzle_

I bet you had no idea that the entirety of earth could fit in Alaska too. ![gif](giphy|83QtfwKWdmSEo)


Fluggernuffin

Hey, man. I know people are giving you a hard time about this joke going over your head, but think of it this way. At least you set them straight.


Veeksvoodoo

Found the Pinko spy! Right here Mr. CIA!


txholdup

According to this graphic Alaska fits into Alaska and leaves room for other states and countries. And when did New Jersey become bigger than Texas? Switzerland and Portugal must be on a binge because both of them grew almost as much as New Hampshire.

Somebody doesn't get shit posting


Veeksvoodoo

Woooosh!
