How big is 49 cubic meters?

It's about 1,000,000 times as big as a Golf Ball
The size of a Golf Ball is about 0.0000406843720 cubic meters.
(per R&A-USGA Rules of Golf)
According to the Rules of Golf (as approved by the United States Golf Association and the Rules Committee of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of Saint Andrews), a golf ball must have a volume of at least 0.0000406840 cubic meters. Golf balls are not required to have the familiar dimpled pattern, but the design has been popular since its invention in 1905 because it reduces drag while increasing lift.
It's about 2,000,000 times as big as a Marshmallow
The size of a Marshmallow is about 0.0000300 cubic meters.
A regular marshmallow measures about 0.0000300 cubic meters. In the 1984 movie Ghostbusters, a monster known as the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man was a fictional mascot of a marshmallow company, brought to life by supernatural forces and made gigantic — measuring 34.3 m tall in this form.
It's about 5,000,000 times as big as a Gumball (packed)
The size of a Gumball (packed) is about 0.00001000 cubic meters.
(64% packing density) (commercial-grade vending machine standard size)
The standard size gumball for a commercial grade vending machine has a volume of 0.00000900 cubic meters. Walter Diemer, an accountant at the Fleer Company in Philadelphia, is the man responsible for bubblegum's traditional pink color, as pink was the only food coloring in the company's factory when he made his first successful batch of gum.

It's about 0.00000009 times as big as Sydney Harbour
Flag of Australia
The size of Sydney Harbour is about 562,000,000 cubic meters.
(formally Port Jackson, a.k.a. Sydney Harbor) (Sydney, New South Wales, Australia) (total estuary water volume at high tide)
Lending the term "sydharb" or "sydarb" to comparable quantities of water, Sydney Harbor contains approximately 562,000,000 cubic meters of water. Snapper Island, a onetime naval facility loocated in the Harbour, was transformed by the dredging efforts of the Australian Navy from a 2,360 sq. m (25,400 sq. ft) outcropping to a 16,500 sq. m (178,000 sq. ft) island shaped roughly in the outline of a boat.
It's about 0.00000000001 times as big as an Halley's Comet
The size of an Halley's Comet is about 4,000,000,000,000 cubic meters.
(Comet Halley, officially "1P/Halley") (volume calculated based on 2005 dimensions)
Halley's Comet, the famous comet visible to observers on Earth approximately every 76 years, has a peanut- or potato-shaped nucleus made of rock, dust, ice, and various frozen gasses. The nucleus measures approximately 15 km by 8 km by 8 km, which yields a calculated volume of 4,000,000,000,000 cubic meters. The coma of the Comet — the trail of sublimated gasses that give the Comet its visibility — may be up to 100,000 km in length.
It's about 0.00000000001 times as big as The Grand Canyon
Flag of The US
The size of The Grand Canyon is about 4,170,000,000,000 cubic meters.
(Coconino County and Mohave Counties, Arizona, near Fredonia and Grand Canyon, Arizona)
A dynamic and continuously changing landscape, the Grand Canyon has an approximate volume of 4,170,000,000,000 (4.17 trillion) cu. m. The strata of the rock visible in the Canyon's walls display nearly 2 billion years of geological history.
It's about 0.00000000000002 times as big as The Gulf of Mexico
The size of The Gulf of Mexico is about 2,434,000,000,000,000.00000000000000000000 cubic meters.
(water volume)
The Gulf of Mexico contains 2,434,000,000,000,000.00000000000000000000 cubic meters of water. Every second, the Mississippi River empties 12,000 cubic meters of water into the Gulf.
It's about 0.00000000000000004 times as big as Earth's Oceans
The size of Earth's Oceans is about 1,400,000,000,000,000,000.000000000000000000000 cubic meters.
(Total water volume of Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, Arctic, and Southern Oceans) (estimated)
Over 97% of the Earth's water is found in the planet's five oceans for a total volume of about 1,400,000,000,000,000,000.000000000000000000000 cubic meters. The Pacific Ocean is the largest ocean, covering 165,760,000 sq. km — more than double the area of the Atlantic Ocean at 82,400,000 sq. km.
