5) As high as a 23 storey skyscraper? 70m?
I have calcualted approx it comes to 132 m for a 80 gram paper, but i have done it very very roughly, your idea of 70 m looks okay.

Depends on the kind of paper. The paper that bibles are bound with is very thin. The paper that some kids books are bound with is very thick.
I have a novel that is about 1000 pages. It is about 1.5 inches high, with the thinnish paper it is composed of. Times a thousand, that is 1500 inches, which is 125 feet exactly. That is about 38.1 meters, halfway between 4 and 5. With slightly thicker paper, it would be 5, and with thinner, it would be 4.

The answer is about #5 above, but depends on the thickness of the pages. The book I measured would have yielded about 55 meters.

Invalid question. One must take into account the thickness of the paper.
