Their are 6.5 billion people in the world right now. The average lifespan is around 50 years. That means the average person lives 18,263 days.
365 days in a year
50 years
365 * 50 = 18,250
50/4 = 12.5 (leap year extra days)
So average lifespan is approx. 18,263 days.
Please remember I'm not trying to be scientific, just trying to get as close as possible. There are a few flaws I already know of. One is that there were less people 50 years ago so not as many are probably dying right now. Another is that with medicine our lifespans will probably continue to increase. However, who's to say a nuclear war won't kill us all anyways? Back to my point.....Going with the 18,263 days average lifespan. Since births are fairly graduate, I hypothesize there are the following number of deaths worldwide per day:
6,500,000,000 people divide by:
18,263 day lifespan
355,911 deaths per day.
Now if we said there was a 75 year average lifespan you would live for
75*365 days =27375 +19 for leapyears = 27394 days
6,500,000,000 people divide by
27394 day lifespan
237,278 deaths per day
Now granted some would argue that all the other deaths remain constant and the 150,000 who died in the Tsunami would add onto the totals I've found. Who are we to guess how many people die on an exact day? For all we know 3x the people could die on Thursday as on Friday. More people die on New Years then other days in some parts of the world. Unless we have accurate numbers of fatalities on the day of the tsunami relative to ever other day it may not have even been that great a tragedy in the worldwide scheme of things.
Go ahead and start your flaming because it won't bring them back and when you die see if anyone outside of your immediate family/ community donates money towards your families hardship- I guess no.
Finally there are approximately 250million people in the US. (My numbers are off and I don't feel like searching, if you wanna waste your time to prove I'm off by 1/5 go ahead).
6,500,000,000
---------------- = 26 or 1/26 of the world's population
250,000,000
In the U.S. people live closer to the 75 year mark so 237,278/26= 9126 people dieing ever day in the US
So basically we have 2 Tsunami's in the US every month. Shouldn't we be worrying about that first?
