What would you weigh on CoRoT-8 b?

Q: What would you weigh on CoRoT-8 b?

CoRoT-8 b has no solid surface. At its cloud tops gravity pulls 1.71 times as hard as Earth's, so a 150 lb person would weigh about 257 lb there.

CoRoT-8 b’s surface gravity is 1.71× Earth’s, so you would weigh about 71% more than you weigh on Earth.

EXCLUDEDCALCULATEDCoRoT-8 b has no solid surface, so its gravity is the pull at the cloud tops, and it is excluded from surface-gravity rankings.

World	Gravity	You’d weigh
The Moon	0.17×	24.8 lb
Mars	0.38×	56.7 lb
Earth	1.00×	150 lb
CoRoT-8 b	1.71×	257 lb
Jupiter	2.53×	379 lb

For scale: among worlds with solid ground and a mass and size that agree, the gentlest gravity is Charon at 0.03×, and the most crushing is Kepler-123 b at 6.40×.
