If you were to dig a hole from Indonesia to the other side of the Earth, where would you go?

Answer 1

Assuming that if it was possible, and you went in a straight line, you would end up in northern Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia, or somewhere close. It all depends on where you start digging in Indonesia.

Answer 2

You can find any place on earth and it will give you the antipode, the point on Earth exactly opposite to a given location.

Let's see.. for Indonesia which is a pretty big place (I don't know exactly where you are) it could range from Venezuela to French Guiana to the Northern part of Brazil in South America. I think if you do it yourself, you can get a more exact location.

If you can't run the program, I made a screenshot for you where I just picked the middle of indonesia.

Answer 3

If you managed to avoid the crushing atmospheric pressure, you would fall into the lava at the core. This is assuming you were not hauled off and put in an institution before you made it 20 feet. If it were possible to actually tunnel all the way, it would be hard to predict the other end because you would not know exactly what angle you actually were digging at.

Answer 4

Roughly Venezuela, depending on exactly where you started digging. Indonesia is a big country.

Answer 5

Not going to happen because as hot as the earths core is you would be dead. But say just for fun you did there couldn't really be a definite answer because your path wouldn't be straight.

Answer 6

No where. You'd die from the heat of the Earth's core. But good try!

Answer 7

the core of the earth. You don't want to do that.

the other side of the earth
