How Good Is Your Intuition? (Mind-Teaser)

There is a wire, whose length is 10 feet longer than the circumference of the earth at the equator. The wire is formed into a circle, slipped over the earth, and placed at the equator. Assume the equator is also circular and smooth (no mountains or oceans). Can you fit your finger between the wire and the earth?
