From that site: "There was a kerfuffle in January about a burger-eating competition that invited contestants to plough through a giant burger that may or may not have weighed the same as David Hasselhoff's head. After contestants complained that the burger was probably much bigger than the Hoff's noggin, the organisers wrote a letter to Hasselhoff asking him to get his head weighed to settle the issue. According to the article: "The weighing process will either employ volumetrics (submersion in water) or require Hasselhoff to lie on a table with his head extended over the edge onto a scale."
I'd pay to see that.
I think our technique is pretty accurate though - "according to the Department of Anatomy & Histology, University of Sydney, an adult human cadaver head cut off at vertebra C3, with no hair, weighs between 4.5 and 5 kg (between 9.9 and 10.23 pounds)".

So whichever weighing method we use Paul is still way above anything that is considered 'normal' in the head weight world
