Bro, what?

U on drugs m8?

Right working, wrong answer

For the record: am American; can interpret metric.

1 mile = 5280 feet, 1 kilometer ~ 3280 feet. I know what you're all going to say, "But how many smoot is each?"

So, I know it's better to go the the 1 km side, but if you didn't know, reason this out. One direction is a distance that you can imagine. It's far, but not unreachable. The other direction is a distance you can't understand. It could be just barely out of sight, or it could be the better part of a day. You don't know. It makes more sense to go with the sure thing. I'd bet most Europeans would choose 5 km over 3 miles, even though 3 miles isn't quite as far as 5 km (though it's much closer than 1v1). Simply because when you don't know what's better, the thing you understand is typically a safer bet.
