What does 70 gallons of water look like?

My 9 and half year old son’s immediate reaction, when i told him that he uses 70 gallons of water in a day, was “how much is 70 gallons?” I repeated “70 gallons!”. And he asked me again “How much is 70 gallons?” with an emphasis on “how much”. That’s when I realized that I couldn’t visualize what 70 gallons was either! I was merely repeating some numbers…

Finally after some digging on the internet, I figured out it is “2 bath tub full”… WOW! Imagine that!! Whether we realize or not, on average, we do use (or waste) 2 bath tub full of water every single day..
