What would happen if everyone in the world started jumping at the same time and the same pace?

Question

i heard that at the lsu stadium measured a 2.0 earth quake due to all 100,000 people in the stadium jumping to the song "jump around" by house of pain during the 4th quarter.

so what would happen if everyone on the planet started jumping at the same time and at the same pace?

Answer 1

that would be ******* sick.

sounds so awsome.

we should try it.

:D.

but probably nothing would happen.

well i dunno.

Answer 2

nothing whatsoever would happen.

Try comparing the mass of the earth with the mass of all the people on it. The latter is very tiny compared to the former. Like a mosquito landing on the QEII.

Answer 3

The earth world be jumping back at us. Newtons third law!

But nothing we could register or even measure for that matter
