- StevenRayOrr 14y agoThe real question is if Lego produces more blocks than a brickyard. Or people than a... maternity ward? Nope, you're right. It is kind of silly although maybe Lego somehow uses it as a point of advertising pride.
- femto 14y agoAn interesting list would be tyre manufacturers by total load bearing capacity produced. For example, if a manufacturer makes 500 tyres, each of which can support 1000kg, they get a score of 500 x 1000 = 500000. It'd be a cool list because it might throw up some unexpected results, due to tyres for odd applications.
- blutonium 14y agoThe next three by units (Bridgestone, Michelin, Goodyear) all do commercial/industrial/aviation, I think Goodyear falls out a bit at the top end. 400 tonne trucks use Bridgestone/Michelin, the Airbus A380 uses Bridgestone, for what it's worth. Would be cool to see it ranked like that though.
