How much does a million dollars in one hundred dollar bills weigh?

One time on active duty I served as an army paymaster to pay the troops in cash. I counted out over a million in twenties. That took about four hours. It took up a lot of bulk, if not weight. A million in hundreds would be about one fifth as much weight and bulk. Make sense? A million in hundreds I'm guessing is about one of those lawyer briefcases that expand slightly. FULL. Maybe....one of those overseas pilot briefcases that opens from overlapping flaps in the top of the case. Know the one I'm speaking of?
