So if you dig a long enough hole, you'll drown before you reach China?I'll let you know when my daughters get there. They've been digging for China for three years at the beach.

Hypothetically, if a hole was dug through the diameter of the world (so from the United States, the hole would open someplace in the southern hemisphere near the Indian Ocean), if a guy jumped in, wouldn't he sort of get stuck in the middle rather than pop out the other end?

I don't think you could find a BOP big enough to contain the pressures. BOP's that size are the mountains that volcanoes form.
To: Jedi Master Pikachu
I never thought of that. I'll have to equip the girls with anti-gravity boots before they jump through their hole.

""It isn't an ocean. [The water] is a very low percentage [of the rock], probably less than 0.1 percent.""
But that didn't stop the author from using "Ocean" in the title.

Well by the time he got to the middle he would of melted away, if that wouldnt have happened gravity would crush him to a pretty small size and then instead of winging it out the other side you would circle endlessly in the center.

You'd need some really lightweight drill rod and would still need a hell of a lot of holdback.

"
Mr. Wysession handled the Flood questions pretty cordially (at least in this article), considering he is probably not a Creationist." I think that his answer indicates that he either is a creationist, or at the least has studied the issue sufficiently to understand all the implications of the question.

And he still calls it "water" Consider the pressure; It can't be vapor, that's for sure.

Remind me again how deep go the continents drifting in plate tectonics. ... Are these 'wet rocks' at the boundaries or interiors of plates?
