Could you, on the spot without research give the guy the answer and win a million dollars?  No Internet or calculators.
Would you win a million dollars?
You may choose only one

Absolutely. While I can't accurately do conversions in my head, I'm betting the asshole with the million dollars can't either. That money is mine :cookiemonster:

How precise do we have to be here?  I’m not even sure how much I weigh right now.

If it was in pounds I would be able to say yes. Despite living in Canada I never weigh things in metric.

No need to convert when you're using les Système international 🇫🇷✌️☺️
SI is the abbreviation for the international system of units.
Standardisation helps avoid a lot of issues for engineers.

I would fail for sure.

I might get close if the question was whats your weight/height in pounds/inches.

I'd get the million dollars as long as I can just do it to one or two decimals.

Upon winning, I would offer the person who lost all their money a pint of beer if they could tell me what -40 in Celcius is in Fahrenheit.

I can do anything

At least it made them laugh ,  most of the time

Nope, and not exactly proud of it either.  I totally support the US switching to the metric system.

It says my height in cm on my driver's license so I know that offhand. Kg to pounds I can generally do in my head but pounds to kilos I would need paper for.

Yeah converting kilos to pounds is easy to do in your head. It's the other direction that's tricker.
