How big was the plane? Can we guesstimate the number of passengers and their luggage?

I made a mistake in my last calculations so here we go again:
So on average there are 35,000 bees in one (1) hive.
A bee can lift about 70% of their body weight
A singular bee weighs 0.00025 of a pound.
So that means a singular bee can lift 0.000175 of a pound.
0.000175 x 35,000 = 6.125 lbs.
A single hive of bees can only lift 6.125 pounds.
A plane is 900,000 pounds.
It would take 146,939 hives to lift a plane
Or 5,142,857,143 bees.
And that doesn't include the people and luggage in the plane.
So I looked at the plane and guesstimated that it was about 900,000 pounds that could carry about 575 passengers.
The average weight of an American is about 180 lbs.
180 x 575 = 103,500 lbs
And the average person takes two suitcases that weigh the average 40 lbs.
575 x 80 = 46,000 lbs
That's an additional 149,500 lbs to the 900,000 that the plane is.
So 1,049,500 lbs.
1,049,500 / 6.125 = 171347
171,347 hives of bees
5,997,142,858 individual bees
so the bee movie

don't know if I'm insane or a genius you guys-

Why not both?

That's a lot of bees, but only 4.13% of the total bees in the U.S. at the time, so out of every 25 bees, one was lifting that plane

Thinking about how badly I want to just dive into a classic, but how tired I've been lately and how I don't have the energy to.

what am I doing with my life?

Now that I think about it, Mr. Beast would be a better contender, he's more liked by the general populace and it'd make a great video

I'm thinking about
Mr. Beest
It'd make great merch, very marketable
Trigger and I guess also tiny spoiler warning because I'm thinking about Midsommar
Threaten him at beepoint
My immediate response to this was "hot"
I'm broken and I blame emi
