Interesting fact of the day. As you lift a rock into the air it actually **increases** its overall mass. Though the increase is so small you'd never notice it.

@lucifargundam No, the weight would do the opposite, weight would go down, mass would go up.

Here is a great video explaining it more.

The principle works the same for a spring. Compress the spring and its mass increases!
