10k? 100k? A million?

I am not talking about calculating with numbers, but rather the point where numbers stop being comprehensible, or “no longer mean anything”.

Try visualizing exactly 10000 apples in your mind.

Edit: What I’ve gathered so far from the answers:

Visualizing: <10

    Try visualizing exactly 10000 apples in your mind.

    Impossible. The first apple inside my head would have killed me already.

    I can visualize 1 apple im my mouth.

    I can visualize 2 apples im my mouth, but with some struggle.

    I cannot visualize 10 or 100 or 10,000 apples im my mouth.

    So my answer is 2. Every human can grasp that number. Above 2, not everybody can.
