You head over to your friend Jack's. He is a German bodybuilder and weighs an inhuman 375 pounds, even though he's never used steroids. Jack almost never wears a shirt (or, God forbid, pants), preferring to wear shorts out and nothing in ('cept maybe boxers, he says). You still aren't sure why he is your friend (after all, you're only 17 and he's 21), but you get along very well together.
Arriving at his house, you knock on the door. Jack opens it with a big smile.
"Alek! Come in!" he grins, with a thick German accent. He gestures with one massive hand. "I am just finishing ze training of today. Be right with you."
You follow him in and sit down on the couch. You watch in awe as the enormous German lifts fifty pounds in one dismissive lift of his arm. Today (thank heaven), he's wearing a pair of plaid boxers, and his muscles stand out in relief against his fair skin, which he refused to have tanned. To this day he keeps his whole body the shade of white he was when he was six -- a fact that you can tell easily, because he wears almost nothing every day. His abs are little plates on his completely flat stomach, and his pectorals stick out to an inhuman distance from his rib cage. His neck is thicker than his arm, and it's covered in little veins when he lifts something. His head, surprisingly enough, was proportioned well, and it seems to belong in that giant neck. He wore size 20 shoes (when he wore shoes) and had an inseam of 45" (not that that really said anything of what he wore), and there really was no comparing him to others. "Just forget about it," he'd say. "I am not ze biggest, nor de strongest, and zat is enough for me." This simple wisdom, you are sure, is what kept him from insanity all these years. Well, total insanity, anyway.
"So. What are you coming to telling me today?" he asks curiously. "Did you perhaps find an interesting shell?"
"No," you say, "It's a size device."
"Ah. I have been encountered those before. They are being great fun. Could you showing me what this one is doing?"
You aim the ray and press a button.
