http://www.snapzu.com/geoleo/how-much-room-the-entire-world-population-would-take-up-if-standing-side-by-side Saw this at another forum and it caught my attention. Pretty crazy how little of us there really are on this planet. Would take 3 hrs to drive around or approx 24 hours to run around it (if running at approx 15km/hr)
If everyone took up 1 square meter like in this estimate, and you put them side by side in a single row, 7 billion people would span 7 billion meters, or 7 million kilometers, and the Earth's equator is 40,000 kilometers, meaning everyone standing side by side would be enough to span the earth 175 times over, or go to the moon and back 9 times over.
