How are specific gravity/density values arranged in Nebuchadnezzar's statue?
In Nebuchadnezzar's statue, the specific gravity or density is arranged with the heaviest at the top. Gold has the highest specific gravity of all the elements, and the values descend through silver, brass, and iron until the iron-and-clay feet, which have the lowest.
Les teaches that if you have any concept of science or mathematics, you immediately see that the specific gravity, the density, is heaviest at the top of the image. The head of gold has the highest specific gravity of any of these elements, and then you get down to the iron and clay that has the lowest. This order runs from the gold head, to the silver chest, the brass belly, the iron legs, and finally the feet made of a mixture of iron and clay. Les points out that as far as engineering is concerned, this makes the image top heavy, with no stability to it whatsoever.
