Can Mushroom Weight 4 Times More Than Your Head? (PHOTOS)

One of the biggest mushroom in the world, agargantuan fungus weighing more than 33 pounds and measuring 36 inches in diameter was recently discovered in Puxiong, a town in China's Yunnan province.

The mushroom has more than 100 caps attached to a thick stem and is gray in color. It's still unclear at this point what type of mushroom it is - or if it's poisonous. <>Although some locals believe the fungus might warrant a visit from Guinness World Records, the world's largest living organism is actually a fungus in Oregon's Malheur National Forest that's roughly 2,400 years old and spread out over 2,200 acres.That's a tough act to follow.

For comparison's sake, the average human head weighs eight pounds and measures 21.6 inches in diameter. Get a closer look at it in the photos below.
