Some have also claim that, the most watched event in the world is the FIFA WORLD CUP, most times the opening game or the final, and to date, that is capped at a little over 3 billions viewers,
However, the World population currently stands at 7.9 billion with
Christians – 2.38bn
Muslims – 1. 9bn
Atheists – 1.19bn
Hindus – 1.16bn
Even if every last Christian tuned in, it would still need ALL Muslims, plus almost ALL atheists or Hindus to do the same in order to reach over “5.3 billion people watching”
