Queen Elizabeth II of England is a direct descendant of the Prophet Mohammed.

And:

Julius Caesar; Cleopatra; the Norse God Woden/Odin; the Egyptian Goddess Isis; the Roman Goddess Venus; and Gengis Khan...
 
Mathematically, everyone alive now shares a common ancestor less than a millennium ago. And some old-timers were pretty prolific. I read that some huge percentage of Chinese have Genghis Khan is their ancestry. And Ben Franklin was "the father of his country," literally. Even more offspring than some corrupt modern fertility doctors.

Heinlein wrote of an iguana bragging that his grandfather was a T.Rex. Delusions of adequacy among genealogy fans, hey?
