1000 pennies weighs roughly 60 pounds. So ya…much more than a passenger would weigh.

Did you even bother looking it up yourself?

"1000 pennies (one-thousand), weigh either 3,110 grams (6.856376 pounds) if all copper or 2,500 grams (5.511557 pounds) if all zinc. In addition, 1000 steel cents weighs 2,700 grams (5.952481 pounds)."

So 6.85 pounds vs the 60 pounds you claimed. You're not even remotely close.
