Yes. That is why the southern states of the US are so low-lying. Pretty soon they will sink into the sea.

It is assumed that if the weight of a human be is about 500 pounds which is three time the average ,would it change the way the earth rotates(or Fall) around the Sun.
So for a population of 6000 million people that would mean that the earth would have an aditional weight of one trillion kilograms.This is minute compared to 5.8 x10^24 kilogram of the Earth mass.Would affect the orbit by only a neglible increment.
The Earth's mass increases a lot faster than that due to cosmic mass absorption.
Theoretically any increase of mass on earth would cause an expansion of the earth's Orbit causing time to dilate( the year would be longer)
The same cenario holds true for Galaxies.

Any person (or animal or plant or...) is made of elements that were already on Earth. Our body makes more body mass by absorbing matter from food which eventually comes from plants, which are made by taking elements from the soil and, using energy from the Sun (via chlorophyll), are made into molecules which we can use to grow.
Therefore, the total mass of "Earth + everyone" stays the same, regardless of our weight.
However, if we all grow too fat for our health, our outlook may fall (but not Earth).

What? No unless everyone came to the same side of the earth and we all jumped at once. The Earth might move a tiny fraction.

1 stone = 14 pounds 30 stone would be 420 pounds. the human race would die off before that ever happened. But assuming we could all live at that weight, NO.. the earth would not fall anywhere.

Where would it fall --to--? And what would measuring the mass of 30 rocks have to do with it? âº

We are falling from the creation of the earth ....The point is we dont know where we r falling coz the things near us are also fallling with us..SUN ,MOON ,PLANETS... are falling away from the center of the MILKYWAY galaxy ...and all the galaxies are falling away from the center of the UNiverse....so we are falling as i am typing and still it will fall when u read..

Fall where?
There is no gravity source under us that we would fall onto. We are spinning in space

Yea, if the earth was flat.
