Hypothetical Question: Falling into a cavern with no bottom?

Question

If you feel into a never-ending cavern or hole, how do you think you would die? Hunger/Thirst, Fear and go psycho from lack of sleep?

Answer 1

That is an interesting question! I think I would probably die of fear... first I would pass out from shock and fear.. and then I would die... I was just thinking about what that would truly mean.. and that would mean that the whole would have to go all the way through the earth to the other side.. so I think maybe you would get pulled back and forth through the hole like you were attached to a spring ... but maybe until you came to rest in the middle? But I'm not sure exactly how that would happen.. I'd have to have someone who knows Physics better than I see what kind of forces would be acting upon you at each time to see what would happen and where you would come to rest... Either way, any of your options are probably good ones for how you would die..
