With the world's current population how many times could we circle the earth on the equator?

Question

If everyone on the earth lined up side by side, how many times at our current population, could we circle the earth on the equator?

Answer 1

About 100 times.

25000 mile circumference (a little off but it keeps the math simple)
x 5000 bodies widths per mile (a little over a foot per avg body)

= 125,000,000 people for 1 circle

So 8 circles per billion people x 7 billion people = 56 circles.

and let's give everyone some elbow room --> 100 circles.

Answer 2

too many
