    Supposing one decides to walk around the earth on the equator, the top of the person's head would describe a circle whose circumference would be longer than the circle described by his feet.
    How great do you think the difference would be?

    Let us assume that the average hieght of man is 175 cm.Let us take R as the radius of the earth.
    Then we have;
    2*3.14*(R+175)-(2*3.14*R)
    =2*3.14*175
    =1100 cm
    = 11 metres
