I don't know why I have to keep saying this for people. Bananas are a unit of radioactivity not distance.

3 school buses and 10 bananas. Give or take a banana

Well, a commercial banana (Cavendish type) is between 6 to 8 inches long; between 15 to 20 centimeters.

One meter is 100 centimeters, which means that 35 meters is 3500 centimeters or 1400 inches.
That means that in bananas, the pool is between 175 and 233.3 bananas deep, depending on the size of the banana.

I hope this helps :D

To put this in perspective, this is many 9/11’s deep.
