The text states that the human heart beats about 100,000 times a day, pumps roughly 2,000 gallons of blood daily, and over a lifetime, does enough work to lift a battleship out of the water.

Infact verdict: True (91/100).

The claims about the human heart's daily functions are well-supported by multiple sources. The claim that the heart beats about 100,000 times a day is corroborated by several reliable sources, including UnityPoint.org. Similarly, the claim that the heart pumps roughly 2,000 gallons of blood daily is supported by sources like UT Physicians. The claim about the heart's lifetime work lifting a battleship is more metaphorical but is supported by sources like PBS, which discuss the heart's energy output over a lifetime. Overall, the claims are factual and supported by credible evidence.
