From cradle to grave

This is Charlotte. 
During her lifetime she’ll achieve some incredible things.

She’ll eat for nearly three and a half years consuming 7,300 eggs and 160 kilos of chocolate. She’ll crawl one hundred and fifty kilometers before she’s two.

From then on, she’ll learn a new word every two hours for the next ten years.

By the time she’s ten, her heart will have beaten 368 million times. She’ll spend a little over twelve years watching TV and two and a half years on the telephone. She’ll grow twenty eight meters of fingernails, and nine hundred and fifty kilometers of hair on her head, and more than two meters up her nose.

By the age of twenty-one, she’ll have breathed over three and a half million balloons of air. She’ll work for a total of just over eight years and she’ll produce 200 billion new red blood cells each and every day. She’ll be able to put a name to 2,000 people. A hundred and fifty of them, she’ll call her friends.

She’ll fall in love twice. If she gets married, she’ll spend £6,809 on her wedding day and there’s a sixty percent chance she’ll stay married to the same person for the rest of her life. She’ll have two children and four grand children and when they grow up, only two of her eight great grand children will remember what her name was.

In Britain, she’s likely to live for seventy-nine years, in France -  eighty-two, in North America - eighty, and in Africa only fifty-five. By that time she will have walked over 22,000 kilometres and talked for twelve years.

It’s an amazing list.
