An average person urinate about 200 - 400 ml urine everyday.

Much more than Ehsan estimates. Yes you will have extremes such as in hospital when on certain drugs but the average person would pass 1.5 to 2 litres per 24 hours. Babies of course much less and heavy beer drinkers much more.
For a 'standard' life of 3 score years and ten, that makes 70 years or 25550 days or something like 45 tonnes of urine in their lifetime.
Sounds a lot but that is only a small swimming pool of say 8 m by 4 m by average 1.4 m deep.

Well, first we have to assume some variables, so lets say the average healthy person pees 1L per 24hr which is average, and in the UK, lets look at men, the average age is 70 yrs;
so, 365 days per year X 70 = 25,550 days
then multiply that by 1Litre gives - obviously - 25,550 Litres or to put another spin on it 25.55 metric tons (assuming pee is 1g/cm3)
Thats a lot of piss.

In scientific terms, "a butt-load". You might approximate it by figuring how much the average person drinks in a lifetime, and factor in how much the average person sweats in a lifetime. Other water-loss avenues probably wouldn't exceed your margin of error at that point, so you could probably discount them.

I don't know but it's more than Ehsan R thinks! I was in hospital in August and had to have a catheter in. They kept having o empty my 1500 ml bag every hour otherwise it would overflow and leak all over. Me, personally, I bet I could fill a few stadium sized swimming pools! lol:-D

about 2 pints a day so say if you live for 70yrs it would be about 6387.5 gals (uk)
