The meaning was that large objects where the primary force acting upon them is gravity will tend towards a round spherical shape. A human is a different story, because we have many other forces acting on us, such as our own actions and growth, that are so much stronger than the gravitational pull we experience. If you put a human in an infinite, emplty vacuum, then we will become dead spheres. However, we don't in any way live ina vacuum.
First of all, you have taken the bait. Second of all, that is wrong. We would not become dead spheres. The lighter gasses that are in our body, such as oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen, would escape and tend toward equilibrium at first. The human body does not have enough gravitational influence compared to the rigidity of bones and tension of muscles to pull itself into a sphere, even in an empty vacuum. Remember, we were built to withstand the gravitational pull of the earth, which is enormous. Our own gravitational influence doesn't even exist in comparison. The average human has a mass of about 50-80 kg. The earth's mass is said to be 5.9722 × 10
24 kg, or 5,972,200,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg. Also, it would not decay, it would remain preserved and freeze. It could float around for a very long time before cosmic radiation disintegrates it into molecules and atoms, given that nothing else happens to it.
