The most typical face in the world

The National Geographic Magazine  revealed last year what the most typical person on the planet looks like, as part of their new series which focuses on the human race called ‘Population 7 billion’.


The research found that a 28-year-old Han Chinese male is the world's most typical person  with 9 million around the globe. So ....was learning English the right choice? Shouldn't you be learning Chinese?
Watch this video and check how similar to/different from the most typical person you are. Are you richer? poorer? younger? older?
WATCH AND LISTEN:    The Economist: 7 billion   to know more about this topic

7 billion? Aren't there TOO MANY people on this planet?

The broked link is the one after "...and some music to go with it" from 8 december. I think if you delete it the blog should work again.

Yes, I agree. seeing the ads that pop up in your screens, I also think this '4shared' link is the offending one. OK. I'll try to delete this link now and see what happens. Thanks Jacob!
