Without looking it up...not sure.
I think it depends on how much 'stuff' they have stored up in there, eh?

It just occurred to me that maybe it's time for me to go lie down...

My head feels like a bowling ball.

"An adult human cadaver head cut off around vertebra C3, with no hair, weighs somewhere between 4.5 and 5 kg, constituting around 8% of the whole body mass."

And Jughead? 8-9% may be too high an estimate!

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Then there's SpongeBob... It's hard to tell where his torso ends and his head begins... But it doesn't weigh much of anything anyway - unless of course he's underwater... but then we're weighing the water and not the head... Can he think without the water in there?  Um... Go soak yer head?

It's far too early for me to be calculating this stuff.  My head's not working yet... Filling it with coffee - Does that count?
