How many doors can your Passport open (see rankings)

The Passport Index ranks passports from around the world. The list is pretty much as one would expect. The countries whose citizens have the most travel freedom have the highest ranking passports with the U.S. and the U.K. at the top of the list. Those at the bottom are the mostly poor and turmoiled ocuntries such as South Sudan and Palestine. Surprisingly Greece ties with Austria, Malaysia and Canada at number 7 with 140 visa free countries opening their doors to the Greek passport. Here’s the full list:
