This may be true for your side of the Atlantic. Here, in the Med region, we like to be approximated by about 72kg of water

:p
That is a horribly un-metric number for BOE calculation. All results can be be scaled for your actual weight.

Using just water is probably a worse error than using 100kg.
 
In another thread on another site there was a rather lengthy debate about this but the consensus was that at saturation the average human has about 1litre of absorbed inert gas.

At 1 bar? If so, at 5 bar would be ~5 L, not that far from by BOE estimate of ~8L.
