I regularly sit on creations out of my daughter's duplo.

Put wheels on it and drive it 18mph we see then.

The base of the Super Awesome Micro Project (a LEGO hotrod built a few years ago, who could travel at 20mph) was pure LEGO; only the four struts connected to the wheels weren't.

Was always curious about that. Got any pictures of the build?

No, sorry.

I've built usable furniture out of Lego, including chairs and I could sit on it just fine. It's incredibly strong if you use it wisely.
