If You Dug A Hole Through the Center of the Earth …

Have you ever heard someone say,

“Are you digging to China?”

This is a stand-by corny one-liner for whenever you approach someone digging a deep hole. #protip

But, would the hole actually take you to China?

I tested (approximately) where I would end up if I dug a hole from my home in Italy to the other side of the earth.

This would be a very bad idea:

So, back to the original question:

Would you end-up in China if you dug a whole all the way through the earth from the United States?

Give a try and find out!

    I’d land in the (Indian) ocean too! Man, it’s like the earth is 70% water or something… ;)
