Everything is relative. For example, Shaq might not look tall when he's on camera next to other basketball players and Simone Biles might not seem short when you see her competing against other gymnasts but put them near each other and you'll instantly get an idea of their size.
So to broaden your understanding of the world, we at Bored Panda put together a new list of interesting comparison pictures from all sorts of different areas, including nature, technology, and social issues. It's a series we've been working on for a while too; if you like scrolling through these images, fire up our earlier publications here, here, and here. Maybe you missed some!

I'm very proud of you. That's all I can feel. A lot and a lot of proud.
Before And After Cleft Lip Surgery
YES! Waaaay back, Babies with a cleft lip would most likely die because they were not able to nurse properly
Load More Replies...Just £150 can perform cleft lip surgery for a child in the third world and give them a normal life. Maybe if people thought of this before buying a puppy that will need surgery costing thousand of pounds just to be able to breathe properly...
On the one hand, I completely agree. On the other, buying a child from the third world is not allowed, so a puppy it will be. /jk, jk!
Load More Replies...There are several organizations in the US that provide free cleft lip surgery to children all over the world: Smile Train, Austin Smiles and others.
And other countries have many similar organisations.
Load More Replies...How wonderful! Makes you feel for the people who don't get surgery or lived when none was possible.
Look at that gorgeous little face with perfect little eyelashes!!! 🥰
The results of these surgeries keep getting better as techniques improve. And Wendy Williams can stuff it.
Had to look that one up because I didn't know about it. Looks like she apologized and donated some money so at least something good came out of it. Maybe the people who watch her will take her up on her encouragement to support people born with cleft palate and cleft lip. I can't imagine why in this day and age anybody thinks it's okay to make comments like that in the first place.
Load More Replies...i can relate i have had a cleft surgery too it is trully amazing that one simple surgery can save your life.
This is why I support Smile Train which performs these life changing surgeries in 3rd world countries.
BLESSED ARE the Doctors & Nurses who donate there services where this issue is common. Donate to Doctors Without Boarders!
Beautiful! Not only does it tell an amazing story, it also adds a unique feature that she should love and cherish for the rest of her life!
I read about parents that had to sue their insurance company to get their baby's cleft lip operated on because the company called it "cosmetic surgery."
This is the perfect picture of a miracle. I bless the magic hands who makes this happen.
Oh, that first picture just makes my heart hurt. Thank God for the Doctors.
We are blessed to have the skilled surgeons and medicos who are able to take care of a fault like this in Nature... This little one has been spared and can experience and embrace life to its fullest - I love those large love-filled brown eyes... Babette Hayes
who knows what he will be now, with this life changing operation. so many doctors do this type of surgery for free.
I loved working in reconstructive plastic surgery. It brings such amazing joy when it's completed. It changes lives.
So glad that we can now save so many children from suffering with this.
No, why alter the way God made us? We don't need COVID-vaccines, our bodies are perfect...

For anyone considering this, do a little research before you decide where to donate. Some of the "charities" actually charge really high prices for the people who need them. My family discovered this when my sister developed alopecia universalis that 9 years old.

Women’s Clothing Sizes Are Nonsense. Both Size 32
It is ridiculous and it’s really harmful for your self stem. The other day I saw a L T-shirt that was 1Cm wider than a xxs. Two trousers of the same size, one fit perfectly and the other didn’t pass my tights. I bought in the same store a xxL and a L that were the same size (of a normal L). I felt horrible when I needed a xxL until I measured it with the other shirt I got. It’s horrible for the self steam.

Altenburg, Germany. Before And After The Ongoing Severe Flooding Due To Excessive Rain
So much modern housing is built on ancient flood planes with zero planning during construction for bad weather. England is terrible for it, plus they stopped dredging the rivers on the say so of environmental nut-jobs which really helped flood everywhere

A lot of these have appeared on BP previously, despite the claim in the title.
They recycle quite often. I guess Reddit was a bust this week
Load More Replies...Very much enjoyed this feed. Thanks for sharing. A lot of interesting things to see and learned a lot about things.
The 'hand for scale' thing was funny with the tiny banana but soon became very much overdone.
Your right. As soon as everyone got hands...it got out of hand
Load More Replies...When they say hand for scale, I have huge hands and my girlfriends hand next to mine (for scale lol) her fingers end at my first bend in fingers. She saysvi have shovels not hands
