minus-squarekamenLady.linkfedilinkEnglish11•8 months agoThat’s still easy to imagine, compared to the volume of 6000 gummy bears.
minus-square@Paradachshund@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglish7•8 months agoTo be honest with you I’m not really sure how big a single Olympic size swimming pool is either. 😅
minus-squarekamenLady.linkfedilinkEnglish5•edit-28 months agoI just fell into a rabbit hole the size of an Olympic Swimming Pool. Before your comment, i didn’t know this was a thing. TL/DR Length: 50 m (164 ft 1 in) Width: 25 m (82 ft 0 in) That’s the size.
minus-square@AngryCommieKender@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish3•edit-28 months agoUnfortunately, they come in various depths depending on if there is a diving pit or not. Also some of the larger natatoriums will combine up to three of them side by side so they have more lanes. The standard size is 8 lanes IIRC.
