Notes[]
Avengers: Infinity War[]
- Used the Marvel Wiki for the population of Zen Whoberi, then divided it in half for the minimum.
- Used World Population History for Earth's population on April 23, 2018 (3,792,095,656), then divided it in half.
- At one point in the film, Dr. Strange uses his powers to check all 14,000,605 possible timelines to see how many they succeed in defeating Thanos, with the answer being only one. During the events of End Game it's shown that all timelines are simultaneous, meaning Thanos succeeded in 14,000,604 timelines resulting in 53,091,629,609,776,224 deaths across all the different versions of Earth.
