Where are you if you walk a mile in another man's shoes?

A mile from where you started, having stolen someone else's shoes.


If you walked one mile south one mile west and then one mile north and ended up where you started where would be you?

One answer is the equator. It is true to say that you end up on the equator again if you started there. You actually would be on the equator, but you would be 1 mile west of your origonal location on the equator. You ended up where you started - sorta. There are other ideas, however. Let's look. There are two correct answers. One is the North Pole. "North and South" are not "up and down," it is moving toward the respective pole. Therefore, traveling one mile south of the North Pole, traveling any distance west or east, then one mile north, would put you back at the North Pole. The other, less common answer, is that there are an infinite number of places on the Earth, where you would end up at the starting location if you were to travel one mile south, west, then north. And that is anywhere 1.159 miles north of the South Pole. You would travel south for one mile, putting you at .159 miles north of the South Pole. Then traveling one mile west would cause you to make a complete circle around the South Pole, ending where the westward mile started. Then travel one mile north and that would put you back at your original starting point.
