Do your legs carry you towards the direction you wish to travel? Or do your legs rorate the earth in the opposite direction?

Dont think of the latter as applying to everyone, just YOU, this guy reading this right now just you. does the earth rotate cus you rolled it backwards walking to the fridge?

If a person could actually rotate the earth the size of a step with each step, chaos would ensue...you're always moving the earth a little bit, but it's not causing it to rotate that much.

So technically you cant move if a person was walking the same speed as you in an opposite direction

Because my legs aren't strong enough to move 5.972e24 kg of Earth with one step. I've got my limits, too.
