Estimate the buoyant force that air exerts on you. (To do this, you can estimate your volume by knowing your weight and by assuming that your weight density is a bit less than that of water.) Assume that your weight is a about 1200N.

Fb=volume*density air
= 1200N/densitywater * density air
= 1200N*density air/density water

density water= 1e3kg/m^3
density air= about 1.225 kg/m3

Fb=1200N*(1.224/1e3)=1.2*1.224 N
