Calc Faron does a shit job (Legend of Zelda)

Calculations
Faron is a water dragon anointed by the goddess Hylia to protect the Faron Wood province...and she fucking floods it. A+ job.

She decides to test Link fucking twice after he was hand picked by Hylia herself because Faron doesn't believe he's hero material yet (this being after she was fucked up by Ghirahim...who Link combats several times throughout the game, even without the Master Sword). When he passes her second test, she decides to dump all the water elsewhere.

Faron floods the entirety of the woods except for the temple, but I figure what I have here, as well as the fact that I will calc it as a dome, will more than account for the topography. Hell, almost all of the ground south of the tree is less elevated than the tree is. Plus, it's just easier for me to make sense of it all this way.

That 86 pixel stretch of the Sand Sea is about 404.734km.

(404734/86)187=880061.14m

(404734/86)59.17=278466.4m

The red line is the smallest distance from the tree, our reference point, to the edge of the water. I will be using this for KE of CoM.

That opening is about the height of the water line. It's also a little less than twice Link's size, so about 3 meters.

(3/7)208=89.143m

Calcing as a dome (the volume of an ellipsoid divided by two)...

v=((4/3)pi*a^2*b)/2
v=((4/3)pi*(880061.14/2)^2*89.143)/2
v=36150271002828.21m^3

36150271002828.21*1000=36150271002828210kg

Now using the red line for movement in our time-frame of about 13 seconds...

278466.4/13=21420.5m/s

KE=.5mv^2
KE=.5(36150271002828210)21420.5^2
KE=8293555774192238730804626.25J

or about 2 petatons.
