Silicone or saline?

Floating in fresh water or salt water?

Saline implants are heavier than fresh water, neutral in saltwater when you include the silicone sack in the measurement (the saline solution is about 22ppt, vs 32ppt for saltwater).

Now, if the woman were bathing in the upper Chesapeake Bay, where the salinity is around 22 ppt, they would be neutral to a bit heavy.    And in the red sea, with its 44 ppt, they would float.

Silicone implants are denser than the saline, being very similar to fatty tissues, and therefore will have about the same buoyancy characteristics.

So, no.  None of the implants will float anywhere outside the red sea.

Facts only an engineer would care about.   This is the "are you a nerd thread", right?

well thank you! i guess manswers lies! lol

On manswers they said that implants don't float and real breast do float because fat floats.

Disclaimer: I happen to watch this one episode while I was channel surfing.

Uhm, yes they do move, no they don't float.

One tiny correction... you are referring to the Dead Sea at 44+/-ppt.

Manswers did NOT say they float.

I saw that episode last year.  They said that REAL boobs float.  FAKE boobs do not.  It has to do with the fatty tissue inside the breast being heavier/lighter than the water.  Fake boobs are more dense, therefore they sink.

Will it float? Will it blend? typical gameshow/tv show type question.

Then there is the Dead Sea and Great Salt Lake,

"The salinity of Great Salt Lake is highly variable and depends on the lake's level; it ranges from 5 to 27%, or (or 50-270 ppt).[4] For comparison, the average salinity of the world ocean is 3.5% (35 ppt)[23] and 30.4% in the Dead Sea."

Or 'tits ahoy" only a few places in the world.

I think you’ll find that an implant, be it saline, silicone or a mix thereof, will float just as well as a like sized piece of rump roast.

Concrete floats why not silicone

I'm grabbin' JoJo if the ship's sinkin'  .  .  .  whether she floats, or not  .  .  .
