You are about 75% water and Xband resonates with the water molecules - so you
will show up as a radar target.


Actually the water frequency is in the K band (24 GHz). Just the opposite, it absorbs
electromagnetic waves. Birds, bees, etc, show up well on many wavelengths, down
to the L Band (1 GHz), and they show up because of their combined mass.
