3,872.

A number; and a small one at that compared to all those millions and infinities. However, depending on which way you look at it, that number can seem bigger or smaller than you realise.

For example; if you thought about as 3,872 grains of sand, then the number would seem rather small as these 3,872 would barely fill your palm. Or if you thought about it as 3,872 snowflakes, the concept would be the same.

However, if you thought about it as 3,872 people dead; then suddenly that number is way too big to comprehend...
