I need to get the exact weight of my left foot from the ankle down. How can I do this? Its urgent. Thanks.

chop it off and weight it, use a hot blade to cauterize the wound instantly and keep the correct amount of blood within the foot.

Your best bet is probably to extrapolate from a volume measurement gotten from dipping in water.

Tourniquet right above where you want to weigh from. Wait until you can't feel your foot, ~2-3 hours. DON'T REMOVE IT. Doing so could be harmful to your health.

Have a hacksaw ready. Saw below the tourniquet. Be sure not to lose too much blood, as it will compromise the accuracy of your measurements. Weigh the foot.

It doesn't get much more precise.

The literature seems to give between 1.3% and 1.4% of your body weight per foot.

too time consuming and messy. thanks anyway.

True, it's not the most efficient method, but there are always tradeoffs if you want the utmost accuracy.

You're welcome anyway though.

I was just taking a bath, and I found an answer. I'll tell you what it is, but first I need to run through the streets naked shouting something. I'm just so excited.

Humans are approximately the same density as water.

Man, I'm glad I've moved past that age when I used to nitpick people's dialects. Being 14 was interesting.
