All of earth's water into a sphere
I found it quite surprising when viewed from this perspective and thought I'd share.
 All the water on Earth would fit into a sphere 860 miles (1,385 km) wide. Image via Jack Cook/WHOI/USGS http://earthsky.org/earth/if-you-mad...ig-would-it-be

If you shipped it to Mars you could make Mars inhabitable.

Looks a little bit like a tit. But it's been a while since I saw a tit.......

Don't forget your fins and a snorkel...
Earth is 7926 miles wide, Mars is 4,217 miles wide.. we may have "some" flooding  I imagine the appearance of Mars would change quite a bit. Maybe something like this...

oh and i thought it would be dificult to contaminate it all
according my studies in high sea if you have a convenience flag as 80% of ships its the law of the stronger or smarter, you can do as you please

Interesting as it is..
It is very misleading.. Comparing surface area to a volume is like comparing percentages to counts.. Sadly both are typically done to either get a rise out of people or emphasize the point (their agenda) they are trying to make.. If they wanted to do a fair and honest job of 'spear' comparisons they should have shown a spear of the ground above sea level (livable area).. Which would have been about 1/4 the size of the water spear.. Better yet, instead of a top down view of the spear, which only masks it size, show how high the spear would reach into the sky.. Where the top of the spear would be at 4540,800.00 FEET Four Thousand, Five Hundred, and Forty point Eight THOUSAND FEET! In short, comparing the volume of water to the volume of the earth is very misleading. It implies that we can make use of (aka live) anywhere 'inside' the earth, where as every drop of water 'inside' that water spear can be made use of. Comparing the surface area of the land to the surface area of the water is a more honest comparison IMHO.

When you say 'spear' do you mean "sphere"? I dont know what you mean by spear, a spear to me is a pointed polearm. Would not a better example therefore be the volume of the water compared to the livable surface area? Hmm livable would discount the Qattara depression, the South Pole and some Mountains...
