What size cube could contain the entire world's population?
#11
2.8 cubic feet per person iirc.
so you'd need a 18,760,000,000 cubic foot box.
2,657.19 x2,657.19x2,657.19
as long as they can pile on top of each other.
If they are all standing on the floor then you need an island just a little bit bigger than the Isle of Wright.

Course organizing this would take forever so you'd need a constantly expanding box.


Hmmm. a half mile x a half mile x a half mile doesn't seem big enough.
