    Important stuff how much do you poo?

    Scientists uncover how much the average person poos in their life | Daily Mail Online

    How much do people poo in their lives? Scientists provide a comprehensive breakdown and the results will surprise you!
    Average woman living to 81 will produce an astonishing 25,920lbs (11,757kg)
    Due to men typically dying at 76, they create less at around 24,320lbs (11,030kg)
    Over a year, the average adult's stool production weighs more than a panda
    In a day, adults create 14oz (400g), which adds up to 6lbs (2.8kg) in a week
    Human stool production occurs at a rate of approximately 2cm every second
    2cm a second eek
    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

    So 1.728km a day... seems extreme. I guess it gets compacted or something.
    Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

      Compaction seems vaguely plausible, though i'm more convinced that it's just not true at all. However if true, that compaction process could be broken in some of our posters which is why they're so full of tulip?

        These figures are for the USA, I think the average Brit would be a lot less. Having used a variety of portable toilets camping, I would calculate the weight should be less than half. Poo is mainly water, if it decomposes, it goes to virtually nothing.

        I will take my pop to Waitrose and weight it.

          2cm a second. What a load of tulip.

          Though it only specifies length not circumference. Worry about it if you ever tulip in 1 dimension, you'll be able to propel yourself by holding it in for a few minutes to up the boost.

            If I truly pooped that much, why do I have such a fat arse?

              Depends what food and beer Ive had the previous day. With plenty of fruit, good cask ale and a not so good curry, I can have a good evacuation of my bowels and fill the bog with a good few litres. Other times I might have a bit of difficulty squeezing a small stool out in 48 hours.

                After careful measurement...

                I can confirm that when I took the "medicine" to empty my bowels ready for my latest Bowel cancer operation I lost almost 3kg from taking the prep to the final escape of noxious gas. Then they cancelled the operation...

                  3kg.

                  Find any toys you lost as a kid?
