After growing very slowly for most of human history, the number of people on Earth has more than doubled in the last 50 years. Where do you fit into this story of human life?

    Oh yeah, I'm the 5,162,836,069th person to be alive./

    It's official, That's now my lucky number.

    I feel like it could be a set of lotto numbers. in some way or form!!

    although, It can't possibly account for people being born on the same time, I could have been born in the morning or at night(It was at night).

    So this calculation is a SHAM!!!!
