And there's nothing there(not hot solid/liquid iron), will I float? Cause of that's the center of gravity. The EXACT earth's center of gravity will make me float cause I'm pulled to every sides and angles.

No, i didn't 'answer my own question FYI'!I just want some 'conformations' here..there's a lot of einsteins here...

Yes you would float, just look at it like a giant spaceship with ultra thick walls.

At the center of the earth the gravity is 0.

U've just answered ur question.
At the center's gravity, u will be pulled to every sides and angles. So those forces cancel one another. No gravity exsists.

Everything is correct except for your use of the term "FLOAT."
Floating is a term that involves the concept of buoyancy.
You are not "floating" ON TOP of something, but you are suspended in an environment where gravitational forces are applied equally in all directions.
"WEIGHTLESS" would be a more appropriate term.

Yes, and your weight will increase in proportion to your distance from the center of the earth (uniform density approximation) until you reach the surface in accordance with Guass's Law.

You said it all.
What you said is completely correct.
You'll be pulled with the same strength to every angle and direction, so every strength will cancel each other off, and you will float.
By the way, Merry Christmas.

Going by the law of physics, I do believe that is true--you WOULD float, and I think you answered your own question here, "Reindeer".

The floating would make it difficult to **** yourself. So you probably wouldn't like it.

yes, but you are also right you would be a tiny spec of burn ash from the molten core you decided to dismiss.
