What Happens If You Fall Through The Center Of The Earth

The video explores the hypothetical scenario of falling through a tunnel that passes through the center of the Earth. It discusses the challenges such as extreme heat, pressure, and the Coriolis effect, which make such a journey impossible with current technology. The video also explains the physics of falling in a vacuum tunnel, including the concept of simple harmonic motion, and concludes with the idea of oscillating indefinitely between the tunnel's ends.
