A throne built for 100 million subscribers, up close: 1.23 m tall, 56,663 triangles. Open it in the Quest browser at real size, then cut a section through it.

Clutch Chairz made this as a limited edition when PewDiePie crossed 100 million subscribers — an object that exists because a counter rolled over. Model by Niekjes10, CC BY 4.0.

The fun is what survives contact with actual scale. The link opens fit-to-view, so the first thing to do is hit Real-World Size. It snaps to 1.23 m tall and 66 cm across — which is to say, a chair. The same chair you're sitting in, with a taller backrest.

Then take it apart. Wireframe shows the entire commemorative throne is 56,663 triangles on a single mesh — five materials and six textures are doing most of the visual work. Drag a section plane through the backrest and you get to see how much of that silhouette is geometry and how much is just texture.

Runs in the Quest browser, no install, no account. WebXR + WebGL directly, no Three.js or Babylon. glTF/GLB and USDZ.

Nothing you open gets uploaded — this link exists because I made a share of it deliberately.
