      And then it rains and the loss of water is vastly mitigated by any minute losses of water. :P Especially if we consider rainfall in rainforests, tropical ones even more so, and more still if we consider global rainfall. So spilled water from a fairly tiny jug of water isn't gonna do much to put a noticeable dent in the bodies and reserves of water on Earth.

      @@ThePrufessa They found new islands mostly by following seabirds, as they understood that they had to go to land _somewhere_ to nest. And they kept track of places they had already discovered through mapping pf ocean currents and star charts primarily. In the middle of the pacific the night sky is a whole lot brighter and more diverse than near civilization. Making it a lot easier to use as a guide.

    Another comparison is with the highest point on Earth, Mount Everest. Mount Everest is 8 KM tall, and so if you flipped it upside down into the Trench, the Trench will only have 3 KM of space from the tip-top of the great mountain of Mount Everest.

      The Pacific Ocean itself is smaller than the earth. its a part of the earth. even if it did become a planet which it never will it would still be smaller than the earth

    I love the videos. But can you include a conversion for Miles in the videos?

    Sailed from Panama to Indonesia on my own boat... what a trip! 18 months in the South Pacific. Bliss!

    I'm going to be moving to Honolulu and speaking Tongan in a couple months. Thanks for reminding me that I'll be surrounded by nothing but sheer and unimaginable amounts of water😂.

      Hawaii is great to vacation.
      Not to live.
      Stationed at Kaneohe MCB, and Pearl Harbor, for a total of six years.
      Left the Navy (late 2010);
      money dried up, by early 2012.
      Moved back to Georgia.
      Too expensive.

      Are you still in Hawaii or are you back in the Mainland? If you are still in Hawaii I hope your new home is going really well

    Love the video even though I had to keep pausing it every handful of seconds to convert km to miles to understand the measurements.
