National Geographic recently sought to determine the characteristics of the most typical human being. Because the world’s largest ethnic group is Han Chinese, males outnumber females, and the world’s average age is 28, this person would have to fulfill all these qualifications. The magazine even took it a step further! Its researchers averaged the faces of 190,000 of the world’s 9-million-plus 28-year-old Han Chinese men.
In addition to age, gender, and ethnicity, this individual would also have a few more typical attributes. He would have to be right-handed and earn less than $12,000 a year. To be totally average, this man would also be required to own a cell phone, but not a bank account, because less than a quarter of the world has one!
More typical facts can be seen in National Geographic’s atypical YouTube video below!
