I've always been curious about this. But I wanted to know for sure. So I did a little research.
First, the shit. Studies show that average weight of a human dump is 123.6 grams, with a standard deviation of 40.2. That's slightly more than four ounces, .27 pounds to be exact. Now, I know we all have our epic five pounders, but those are balanced out enough by the tiny brocolli lean pocket dumps that I feel comfortable using the .27 value as an acceptable average.
Next, the frequency. This varies greatly from person to person, as some regularly defecate multiple times a day, while others shit only 3-4 times a week. I'm about a dump and a half per day person myself, which we'll round to 10 dumps per week.
So each week, I output approximately 2.7 pounds of poop. 2.7 x 52 = 140.4 pounds a year. 140.4 x 26.5 = 3720.6 pounds of shit
Leaving me just a mere 280 pounds away from my two ton goal, which I should hit almost exactly two years from now. Big party at my house to mark the occasion.
How much poop have you produced? Feel free to steal my figures. 5/24/2011 2:14:53 PM |

i would think equal volume of liquid diarrhea and solid dump would find the liquid to weigh more, since the solid would have some air pockets 5/24/2011 2:22:52 PM |

Just did the math. Based on your yearly average. I'm pushing my 3rd ton.

the interesting thing would be to somehow estimate the weight of food you've consumed, less water content, and compare this to your crap total to ballpark your energy conversion efficiency
someone should get on that. i gotta go take a dump. 5/24/2011 4:14:27 PM |

every time jesus stepped on water, it replenished the water of the earth, so you have to factor that in.
