* DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: Max encounters this problem twice with being big. The first time, when he tries to catch the ball while he is bigger than Ord, the ball lands near him and he has trouble seeing it because it is so tiny, and as a result he squishes it. The second time, when he grows even bigger than Mungus the Giant, he tries to put away the bats, only to accidentally break them. This is what causes him to realize that being big isn't as good as it may seem at first and makes him want to return to his normal size.
