17. Gandhi Walked More Than 11 Miles Every Day For 40 Years... Meaning He Could Have Travelled Round The Globe Twice
Gandhi would walk around India in order to preach his word to the masses - and he would cover approximately 11 miles every single day for more than 40 years. To put that into perspective, Gandhi covered the same distance by foot as if he had walked directly in a circle around the world twice - more than 160,000 miles in all.
