      I just asked a person who I regard as fairly typical. He wasn't sure, but I asked him the most famous person he shook hands with. It was Adam Sandler.

      So from there it would go Adam Sandler - Bill Clinton - Boris Yeltsin. From there I'm not sure who Yeltsin knew, but he probably shook hands with at least Gorbachev, who probably met Brezhnev, who met Stalin.

        It's Adam Sandler > Bill Clinton > Queen Elizabeth II > George Marshall > Stalin. Most living world leaders can at least trace back to Stalin through Lizzy.
