Curiosidades (20) - Quantos humanos já morreram no mundo?

Muitos historiadores trabalharam a fim de calcular quantos Homo sapiens já passaram pelo planeta. Baseando-se no período de seu aparecimento na Terra - de 50.000 a 100.000 anos atrás - e na quantidade de homens que habitaram diferentes regiões durante toda a História, os estudiosos chegaram a números que variam de 34 a 105 bilhões de habitantes. A imprecisão se deve à escassez ou total ausência de registros e documentos em alguns períodos. Atualmente, vivem no planeta cerca de 6 bilhões de pessoas.

    2011 BRASIL GP: NEW DOMINANT 1-2 FOR RED BULL, WEBBER AHEAD OF VETTEL

    Go, go, go Red Bull!!!
    Red Bull absolutely dominated the Interlagos race. Mark Webber took his first win of the season at the Brazilian Grand Prix as team-mate Sebastian Vettel struggled to second with a race-long gearbox problem.

    Vettel lead at the start, and Webber fending off the cars behind for second despite a slightly slower getaway.Vettel soon opened up a stable three-second gap to Webber, as the Red Bull duo left the rest in their wake at a rate sometimes up to one second per lap.

    But from the early laps Vettel was receiving radio messages warning him to short-shift to nurse a developing gearbox problem, his pace slowed enough for Webber to sweep into the lead on lap 29.While the Australian went on to take his first win since the 2010 Hungarian GP, Vettel still had enough pace to hang on for second.
