I feel that my rant is even more justified now that it has come to light that Australia Post's CEO is one of the highest paid public "servant" in the world (higher paid than presidents and prime ministers) and definitely the highest paid Post Office CEO in the world.
I don't begrudge people who work hard for their (lots of) money but I see no evidence that this particular CEO is value for money. The only thing I see is cost cutting, job cutting, and service cutting. You might as well hire a man in an oversized suit shaped like scissors and he'll do just as good a job at running the company.

Well, the feathers were still attached to their respective critters, i.e birds, chooks, ducks, geese. The chickens were on rafts and the rafts were held together with lead. There may have been a few cows involved too. Once they were all stuffed into the truck to go to "aunty's farm", the weight of them all, including the rafts, bent the axles. I rest my case.

Unfortunately Tippy you haven't taken into consideration whether the chooks are flying, landing or statically positioned (?)..............
One small fox could make a huge difference in the scheme of things.

They were static as they were all jammed inside the truck. There was no dead space.
Lyndal, I watch it every time it;s on, plus I have it on DVD. It's one of my favourite movies.

Showing working implies numbers, and using the initial premise. Which was yours and didn't mention anything about the feathers being attached to their original owners.

Clearly the feathers
Both were initally weighed on earth
Feathers weight on earth 2 tonnes
Lead weight on earth 30 tonnes
The feathers were loaded on a truck on the Sun Gravity 27.9x Earth effective weight 55.8 tonnes
The Lead were loaded on a truck on Pluto Gravity 0.06x Earth effective weight 1.8 tonnes
The feathers broke the axle just before bursting into flames.
Profanity is no substitute for wit.

CEO has now quit so hopefully Australia Post may get back on Track and start listening to Customers
