No wonder that i have a hard time toting my box with 6 gallons of water. That is 50 pounds… and I am just a 76 year old female. Now I feel better, I am not a wimp I guess.
We compassionate bro Darwin awards for this person I appreciate how lucid you are and share it, because People go dumber and dumber (Sorry for my poor English)
I don't recall now who I was talking to, but they were shocked when I told them how much a gallon of water weighed. There's a reason people clean the snow off of roofs in certain parts of the country. I seem to recall that's the reasoning behind A framed houses.
it will be easier to get SI. the metric system. SI a liter is a volume of 10cm^3 a metric ton is 1000 liters, or a cubic meter is 1m^3 so 32 fit *16 fit = 9.75m*4.87m=47.5 if it is filled up to the miter if is deeper let's say 1m 25 cm so 1.25m so 47.5×1.25 = 59.3 cubic meters 59.3m^3 so ALMOST EQUAL 59.3 ≈ 60 tons.
You don’t have to yell, it doesn’t get your point across in fact since there’s so much yelling these days people tune you out to cope- just a suggestion
Youd think itd be ok though seeing as Those roofs have to be able to withstand large amounts of snow on them in the winter.. which often turn to ice. Youd think a foot of snow on top of that roof would far outweigh that swimming pool. But i also dont know sh*t about engineering
Yup! Km a cannabis cultivator & at an old facility we used 40gal rolling trash cans as mobile nutrient containers, they each full weighed 320 pounds. Shits definitely not light! Newbies always push from behind rather than pull & have fun cleaning water off the floor for a good part of the day
Dude you’re being over dramatic, drown in the living room?! They’ll most likely be wash out the window and fall to their death, then their dead body robbed by homeless people, before they’re charged by NYPD for littering for letting their furniture and dead body fly out a window without a permit, then the city will tax all the residents to pay for the cleanup, before suing the landlord over letting this happen, then tear down the building adding to the dead body robbing homeless population, before building a far too expensive new development on the land, that doesn’t have the structural support for a rooftop pool, repeating the cycle, while calling everyone a racist or some kind of phobe!
Yeah, as a gardener who consistently carries water for my plants and for my house, I’ve learned to appreciate how heavy water is, and I can’t even imagine a pool on my roof..Lol
if anyone needs example of building crushing itself down, search Sampoong department store collapse. Not only the building was poorly built, the company thought it would be great to have air conditioner and its coolant liquid that weighs 87 ton.
Out of approx. 550 ish people that were trapped under the rubble, 40 people were rescued, 6 of the bodies were never recovered.
Thats about a 9 on the tension scale Rhub.
Dead right. Crazy what stupid people will do.

A new way to the afterlife.
Sing it Jason
I love how most people forget the basics of physics, and don't acknowledge that water actually has weight
Imperial system is so stupid
Reminds me of the scene in final destination 4 with the bathtub in the hospital.

I'm surprised that they even filled it up…
I think the same thing when I see people plant big ass trees
Person who uses the metric system here… what the hell were all those numbers
I have no idea what he said.
Also I assume those who use freedom will be like “WTF is a kilometre!!!!!!” (Majestic bold eagle screeching in the background)
Dead load is around 45 pounds per square foot. Do the calculation. There she blows.
Please use the metric system like a normal person…
1ltr = 1kg

this sounds like a b movie i know its old but fuck
ok i see what your talk about i was like i big deal bu now
i think about was that a dangeriou you can't get out
and thank you 911 operater
Pounds per gallon…? Americans really are the weirdest species on the planet.
I’ll never know why Americans just say water weighs 1000 kilo for every cubic meter of water. Or 1 kilo each Liter.
“8.34 pounds per gallon” its just 1 kilogram for each Liter.
Here in Brazil we had a similar problem, between an influencer and a engineering company.
It's best I think to remove warning labels and stop telling ppl something Is a bad idea. The human species will only benefit from it.

Sounds fun, can I go to that amusement park m

Our deck collapsed while my husband was filling a small kiddie pool on it
This guy is annoying

How is this not common sense?

That’s big pool. Didn’t know Walmart sold pools that size.
It’s the weight of a tank for comparison.
As a not-american, i thought the screaming bald man said funny words

Lmfao
I feel like at this point, we need IQ tests before people are allowed to buy literally anything

What kind of idiot thought THIS was a good idea? You don't have to be an engineer to know that this is a bad idea.
People are so dumb
Keyword…NEW YORK. Anyone really need me to explain more?
