Water is a heavy entity. We have this special machine that makes "Nanopure" water, which is ultra-filtered to be extra extra clean. The machine works really slow, though. To fill up this big jug (it turns out, it's a Nalgene brand jug..the same brand as those quality water jugs people usually carry around), it takes about 15 minutes. And when that jug is full, it can take about 25 liters of water. For those of you not familiar with the metric system, 15 liters is about 6 gallons of water. Each gallon of water weighs 8.33 pounds. If you do the math, you'll see that the jug ends up holding about 50 pounds of water. One could get a pretty decent work-out just by transporting jugs of water.
