Boiling points of alcohol and mercury??

Just use google. I googled boiling point table, and got lots of good hits. Here's one of the boiling point of the elements in the periodic table:

Thx A Lot ..
 
The book claims the answer is that all the magnitudes are the same because "the gravitational force on the penguin is the same". I'm having trouble understanding this. I thought the buoyant force was equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. Weight depends on mass which depends on density. Therefore, due to the differing densities the buoyant force will be different in each case? Is this incorrect?
