<p>I got this idea from another forum.</p>
<p>Well, would ya?</p>
<p>did you get this idea from another forum?</p>
<p>your question has been answered ;)</p>
<p>My friends and I tried back in 1st grade during recess. We dug like a foot with rocks and our hands. We thought after a mile we would jump on a slide and it would take us to China. Good times.</p>
<p>yeah i see kids trying to do it all the time with plastic shovels from dollar store.</p>
<p>pretty sure i thought i could do it too…</p>
<p>I was too cynical of a child to ever believe things like that.</p>
<p>…I still am.</p>
<p>Why is the goal always to reach China?</p>
<p>I don’t think I really knew what China was when I was digging. I just went along with my big brother’s plans…</p>
<p>China is the EXACT place on the opposite side of the world.</p>
<p>I was kinda disappointed when I found out it wasn’t…</p>
<p>You would have to live in Argentina for that to work.</p>
<p>I tried when I was a kid. Then I got really disapointed when I found out that I would die once I reached the mantle. They do a great job of killing a kid’s dreams.</p>
<p>I grew up in Korea. So we always knew that walking to China was a lot faster.</p>
<p>That was in a commercial that featured a vacuum too. How far do you have to dig to reach water? Does it depend on the sea level? Geography majors help me out hea!</p>
<p>
Ditto .</p>
<p>Oh wow, I always did that. I remember realizing that I’d have to get through the super hot core of the earth. It didn’t faze me much.</p>
<p>hum, i wonder why the kids in CHINA never had an idea such as digging a hole to America. i think we preferred air travel as a much more practical solution :P</p>
<p>China? That’s ballin’.</p>
<p>To fly to India from Houston, why do planes travel east than west. Isn’t travelling west a shorter route or do they travel east for refueling purposes?</p>
<p>how does this thread have 17 replies?</p>
<p>it’s sheer brilliance perhaps?</p>
