Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower is a landmark tower in Paris. This record measures its full 330 m height to the top of the antenna installed in 2022, rather than a roof or occupied-floor height.
Eiffel Tower — 330 metre antenna height
The marked height is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.
Human
A defined adult standing 1.75 m tall with a mass of 70 kg. This is a consistent comparison specimen, not a global average or health benchmark.

- Relative size
- Eiffel Tower is larger on this measurement by a factor of about 189.
How to read the visual
The labelled spans and stored measurements determine the scale; unmeasured illustration details do not.
- Human is labelled example; treat the displayed value as a comparison anchor rather than false precision.
