Anyone else find this interesting? Ive always had a weird fascination with it. For those who dont know what it is, six degrees of separation is the theory that any person on the planet can be connected to any other person on the planet through a chain of acquaintances that has no more than five intermediaries. Its possible, in fact very likely since we all have something in common, that every user on this forum could connect with each other via a short series of mutual real life friends

Obviously most people in Liverpool could have one to the likes of Rooney and Gerrard, one of my mates taught young Wayne in school, so thats an easy one for me, these ones are a bit standard but it will run me > my mate the teacher > Wayne Rooney > all his hangers on > then there mates too

As a more interesting example, my mate Mick, who worked with a lot of people in the music industry is friends with Brian Wilson, so Me > Mick > Brian Wilson > Dennis Wilson > Charles Manson, another example is I used to hang out with a lad called Richard from Bradford, his mum worked with Sonia Sutcliffe, so me > Richard > His mum > Sonia Sutcliffe > Yorkshire Ripper

I became intested in them when Trump became President and some woman put a pic up on social media of him kissing her babys head, and someone pointed out to her Your babys head > Donald Trump > Stormy Daniels > Ron Jeremys penis

There was a website a few years ago about bands and it was crazy they way you could link most major recordings artists one way or another by sometimes only a few links

Just wonder if anyone else finds it interesting.
