Depends on the weight. Check the MythBusters website, they did an experiment on this.

∙ 13y agoOne cubic foot of helium will lift 28.2 grams at sea level: (n cubic feet)(28.2 grams/cubic feet)(1/448 pounds/gram) = n *
.06294 pounds
This is a baseline formula, there are many variables that will affect the lift of helium in air such as air temperature, air pressure and humidity.

∙ 14y agoLet's calculate Density of air at 20 degrees C is 1.204 g/L Density of Helium at 20 degrees C is 0.1786 g/L SO 1 litre of Helium can lift 1.02 g 200lbs= 90,718 grams So it would takes 90,718/1.02 = 88,939 L of Helium So the answer is 89 cubic meters or 3143 cubic feet of helium. The price of crude Helium is $62US a cubic meter so it would take about $5500 of helium.

∙ 14y agoAccording to howstuffworks.com, one cubic foot of helium will lift about 28.2 grams. Figuring 448 grams in a pound, it would take about 15.9 cubic feet of helium to lift one pound.

∙ 13y agoit depends is he/she inhaling it or are balloons tide to the person
Wiki User
∙ 9y agoThe amount of weight that helium can lift depends on a few things. This depends on the amount of helium.

What is the percentage of flesh in the average human body?
The percentage of flesh in the average human body according to my calculations should be 35,74429%
What is human body temprature?
Human body temperature is the measurement of heat in the human body. The average person's body temperature is about 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
About how many cells are in the human body?
The average human body consists of approximately 100,000 billion cells.
What nutrients needed by the human body are NOT organic compounds?
minerals
How much saliva does the average human produce daily?
The average human body produces one quart of saliva per day.
Does a human body float in helium gas?
No, human body doesn't float on helium as it is light.
Why are you running out of helium?
I'm personally not running out of helium. In fact helium is harmful to the human body in large doses. So no helium would not affect me.
How many amino acids are needed in the body?
there are 22 needed in the human body.
Is helium found in the body?
Traces of helium might be found in the body under some circumstances, but as helium is an inert gas, it isn't found in any compounds in the body. Helium certainly isn't necessary for life. The presence of helium in the body may only occur when we breathe some helium and it is taken up in the blood and diffuses into tissues. Even then, the helium exists as single atoms of this noble gas, and it will diffuse out of the body given a chance to do so.
What is the average human body mass?
The average human weight is 70 kilograms.
Compound needed by the human body?
Water
What is the percentage of flesh in the average human body?
The percentage of flesh in the average human body according to my calculations should be 35,74429%
How much oxygen is needed by a human body?
A lot
Is helium bad for your body?
Helium isn't toxic to the body but does deprive it of needed oxygen. By inhaling Helium you are actually pulling oxygen out of the body and can be potentially dangerous if oxygen isn't reintroduced. As the related link states, sucking it in from a Helium balloon won't kill you. You might just get light-headed or pass out (don't hit your head). Inhaling it from a tank or climbing into a giant Helium balloon is extremely dangerous and there are fatal cases.
What are muscles needed for in the human body?
The muscles contract to move parts of the body
Would it be possible to breathe helium instead of oxygen and would it take much alteration to the human body to make this possible?
It is not possible to survive by replacing oxygen with helium. The body cannot use helium for cellular respiration and would very quickly suffocate. The chemical processes involved in cellular respiration would not work with helium, so there is no way to adapt your body to do this.
How many gram of blood in human body?
There are .000373 grams of blood in an average human body.
