Earlier this month, Ryan Nixon started a massive debate on Twitter.
He tweeted: “My mates and I are having the STUPIDEST debate… And I am here for it. Do you think there are more doors or wheels in the world?”
223,347 people responded to the poll, with 46.4% of users claiming there are more doors and the remaining 53.6% claiming there are more wheels.
My mates and I are having the STUPIDEST debate…
And I am here for it.
Do you think there are more doors or wheels in the world?

#TeamWheels have pointed out how many objects have more than one wheel. For example, there are four wheels on a standard car, and two on bikes and wheelchairs.
#TeamDoors’ argument is that there are many doors into different rooms in different buildings, as well as doors on closets, kitchen cabinets and even advent calendars.
While we never know the real answer to this question, it has been very enjoyable reading the tweets about the debate.
Take a look:
the door vs. wheel debate is genuinely making me lose sleep

This whole wheels vs doors debate is throwing me for a loop. What is a wheel? What qualifies as a door? What if this is all a big ploy by the window industry? Do windows count as doors?

Update on Wheels vs Doors debate:
A revolving door is both a wheel and a door.Thank you for your time.

I started this wheel vs door debate on team door but then I remembered some doors are even more wheel than they are door. Not even a competition anymore pic.twitter.com/1jAaEmKBlV

Believe it or not doorknobs are wheels. Wheel is a circular object that revolves on an axle.#wheelvsdoor#teamdoor #teamwheels pic.twitter.com/FHqfosKWK4

I have just discovered the debate on whether there are more wheels in the world vs more doors in the world.
I can never look at a wheel or a door the same. And the fact that we’ll never truly know the answer makes it worse.
My life is in shambles.

Interesting take on the doors vs wheels debate. Hypothetically speaking, doors can be wheels. If you take a door off what its fixated to, leave the hinge on and attach it to an axle you could rotate it quick enough to become a wheel. Therefore, all doors could be wheels. Wheels>>
