Fill a cylindrical pool (a pool with vertical sides) with water and measure the level of water in it. Sumberge the human body and measure the level of water.

Volume of body = increase in volume in pool

= area of cross section of pool * increase in height of water.

The pool need not be cylindrical, but being so makes the calculations simpler.
