When I breathe air, how many other people have inhaled those same air particles before me?

Question

Could I be breathing in air particles that were once breathed by now-dead people? Is it possible that I just breathed in an air particle that once went through the nose of George Washington or Winston Churchill or Marilyn Monroe or Ghandi?"

Answer 1

Yes iam afraid!  But one thing is clear.  The particle you inhaled just before asking this fxxxx question definately wasn't mine.

And I ain't saying anthing about the sewerage water the dirt water which all got heated and wentup as as vapour and condenced as clouds, and poured as rain and collected in catchments, sea, reservoirs, and then turned into potable water.

Relas! the air particles you exhaled (carbondioxide) did get purified and turned into oxygen.  Hence you cannot say the same particles of those which think of.  

And yes, there is all posibility of you inhailing particles of people very close to you physically (being next/opposite/beside you that is).

I am pretty sure that had i breathed the particles of those renowned people you mention, I would have been the Most Intelligent, Most Renowed, Most Polular and Most Handsome Dude of all time!

Ha! for lol.

Have a nice day!
