My Heart

Will beat 129,306 times, pump 1,896 gallons of blood, and push that blood nearly 15,644 miles throughout my body!



Today, My heart will pump around 1,896 gallons (7,167 liters) of blood
In my lifetime, my heart will pump 1.2 million barrels of blood
(that's the equivalent of 3 supertankers)

My blood travels around 15,644 miles a day (25,171 km)
(roughly halfway around the circumference of the earth)
