If Earth's population was shrunk into a village of just 100 people with all the human ratios existing in the world still remaining - what would this tiny, diverse village look like? That's exactly what Philip M. Harter, a medical doctor at the Stanford University School of Medicine, attempted to figure out. This is what he found.

48 would be male
70 would be non-white
30 would be white
70 would be non-Christian
30 would be Christian
89 would be heterosexual
11 would be homosexual
6 people would possess 59 percent of the entire world's wealth, and all 6 would be from the United States.
50 would live in sub-standard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
1 would be near death
