Why is pi so big?

Is it? It's only a little over 3; I have 10 fingers and that is about 3 times bigger than pi, and 20 fingers and toes which is about 6 times bigger than pi. Or are you referring to the fact that pi has infinitely many decimal places? It's not alone in that as 1/3, 1/6, 1/7, 1/9, 1/11, 1/13, 22/7 all have an infinite number of decimal places. pi is an irrational number which means that it has an infinite number of decimal places and cannot be represented as a fraction. It is also a transcendental number.
