Six Degrees of Separation

Everything Everywhere Daily: History, Science, Geography & More

You may have noticed, on occasion, that friends you have from totally different parts of your life sometimes know each other. 

It often comes as a surprise, but it actually shouldn’t. It turns out that the world is highly connected via personal relationships. 

In fact, it has been suggested that any two people in the world are only six degrees apart from each other via friends of friends of a friend.

In some special cases, this can actually be measured and can even make for a fun game. 

Learn more about the Six Degrees of Separation theory and its connection to Kevin Bacon on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
