3	''[[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQwFuQLnLocj5F7ZcmcuWYQ MetaBallStudios]]'' is a Website/YouTube channel made by Álvaro Gracia Montoya from Spain. The videos consist of 3D animations demonstrating the size differences among various real and fictional animals, buildings, vehicles, and other things. There are also videos using the same method to quantify more abstract concepts like speed and time.
4	----
5	!!Tropes include:
6	* BigApplesauce: New York City is very commonly used as the setting for the size comparison line-ups, likely because it's easy for viewers to visualize the sizes of its many famous buildings.
7	* ExactWords: The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pvp4mifc28s "DRAGONS Size Comparison"]] video features many literal dragons -- and the [=SpaceX=] Dragon spacecraft as a "reference".
8	* FictionScience: The channel is devoted to quantifying physical aspects of fictional stuff such as their size and speed. The creator also attempts to measure the time duration of certain InUniverse events.
9	* FunnyBackgroundEvent: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTPwbVqU6lc "FICTIONAL STARSHIPS Size COMPARISON"]], a Covenant cruiser from ''Franchise/{{Halo}}'' (which is not part of the actual line-up of compared starships) can be seen flying over New York before glassing the city.
10	* HeartbeatSoundtrack: In "[[https://youtu.be/Zb5qTdb6LbM Time In Perspective]]", a heartbeat can be heard as the video arrives at the last unique milestone, "Quantum tunneling could generate new inflationary events, resulting in new Big Bangs."
11	* HumongousMecha: A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-y6kW-m2JSA video]] from April 30, 2022 focuses on the size differences between various fictional mecha.
12	* {{Kaiju}}: Giant monsters are popular choices for the videos. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdkOflblzL4 "(Movie) MONSTERS Size COMPARISON"]] most directly deals with them, but lots of other videos focused on different topics nonetheless feature kaiju as well.
13	* LongList: The videos frequently end with lengthy lists of characters and things that fit with the video topic but which Montoya didn't have the time or resources to render.
14	* OurDragonsAreDifferent: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pvp4mifc28s "DRAGONS Size Comparison"]] compares the sizes of numerous dragons from fiction.
15	* StockScream: In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_BGuMzkiNw RADIOACTIVE DOSE in Perspective]]", the final radiation dose causes the human to be knocked back while letting out a Wilhelm scream.
16	* TimeAbyss: In "[[https://youtu.be/Zb5qTdb6LbM Time In Perspective]]", where one second equals one millimeter, and the age of the universe isn't even the size of a city, there's still several minutes left when the observable universe -- by definition the absolute largest thing that humans can possibly measure to any degree of accuracy -- passes by. The milestones after that have ''absolutely nothing'' to be compared against. Not even each other, as the differences are just that vast.
