    You know, I knew that but couldn’t figure out what the opposite of weight was for some reason. Thanks for the extra learning!

    Fun fact: Coffins experience this force too, and during flooding can rise up out of the ground

      Ah, that explains why my grandpa was buried in a lead coffin.
      He lost a lot of weight right before he died, so he was too light!
