I really liked the way how you depicted the distance in terms of two countries compared to how much we have covered. This really shows that you know people (atleast me) are not good enough in assuming how much we have done.
Maybe because when you fall, the gravity drops you at high speed. Digging down has nothing to do with gravity. When you dig a hole, you're holding the handle. The gravity is keeping you on the ground. But when you fall, the gravity is pulling you down with high force. So that's why.
@@no_one20077 I think he means his own comment! Joking aside, Im guessing he thinks that we have already found all precious metals that there are and therefore cannot find any new! Of course he makes the typical mistake of being an arrogant schmuck who thinks science actually "knows everything". I dont know if there are any other precious metals down there that we dont know of but I know that we will not know until we know! Hmm, come to think of it, both comments are equally "ignorant" actually since both cannot possibly know!
If you dropped a golf ball (for example) down a tunnel that went all the way through the earth, in a straight line, would it slow down as it approached the earth's centre (since beyond that point it would be travelling upwards)? Or would it acquire enough momentum as it fell to carry it through the centre of the earth? At what point would it slow down? And where would it finally come to rest? The earth's centre of gravity is approximately 40 km from the centre of the earth in the direction of the moon. Is this where the ball would eventually come to rest? And would it float in mid air, given that the force (or pull) of gravity would be equal on all sides?
Damn, best comment! I'm thinking after terminal velocity was reached, continuing toward the centre it would actually slow as it approached the center then cruise past, and finally slow to a stop and reverse, like a pendulum untill it finally rested in the middle
@@davalleyguy5020 I remember this question in school. It will maintain terminal velocity until it reaches the core, then it begins to slow down and begin a pendulum past the core. Then eventually coming to a rest.
@@HenryDoohickeyII And without any air resistance or other means of friction, it would speed up until reaching the center (though the *acceleration* would decrease the whole time), at the center it would have its maximum speed, and then it would have precisely enough kinetic energy to travel up the shaft and come to a stop for a moment exactly at the opposite surface point. (Again with more assumptions needed, this time at least of a perfectly round planet.)
Update for if you ever do a V2: the Bingham Canyon open-pit copper mine (2:47) is now more than 1,200m deep, and will reach a depth of more than 1,300m when the century-old mine finally stops production around 2028.

Question definitively not answered.
It’s interesting that there is no access to the sun underground yet it gets hotter the deeper you dig. We’ll never reach the center because it’ll get too hot. I’m sure hell is in the middle 👀

Are you playing on a mod? The max height of a Minecraft World is only 255 Meters in vanilla, but this cave you have found goes down to around 600 meters.
So the centre of the earth is 6000 Celsius, assuming liquid nitrogen (or something better) would work at that point and we could find something that wouldn't melt before we cool it or crack while cooling it, and that we could also drill through the earths crust, then we'd probably have a small chance of getting there....
Kieran Brown but i suppose we could dig to the other side if we have a propulsion really, really, really, really strong, it has to be constant so it can dig through the Earth and resist the immense gravity, which i don't think it would be possible for humans

This is a perfect example of what's wrong with any number of YT videos and countless articles and videos in the media and stories in news operations: What's the deepest hole we can dig? And the video begins with a deluge of trivia that has NOTHING to do with the question posed by the video title. And this goes on for 6+ minutes and that where I say, "Bye bye."
He answers the question in 2 ways explaining that they weren't able to drill deeper because the heat would not allow it, and also giving the full depth of the earths crust. Our current technology won't allow us to drill any deeper. Future technology may allow us to go deeper, but we wont ever get further than the crust.
So you're assuming the Soviet's several decades old drilling tech is the most advanced humanity could manage today in 2017? That's ridiculous. - No the question was never answered.
He also set the premise that if our sole purpose on this planet is to dig as deep as we can how far could we have dug? He didnt aswer it and just put a bunch of random depths that the internet already has thousands of videoes on.
The question you didn’t answer was “how deep would we get if we put our collective minds to it with the technology of today” still, great vid and scary how little we’ve accomplished in this field compared to space travel, for example.
About 2800 km, at that depth there's a temperature of around 3000 Kelvin, so Tungsten could still work to build with, but lower than that and even tungsten melts. (It's not a sharp limit, just an approximation). The theoretical limit is all the way through if we just get rid of that pesky heat melting everything, like let's say we cool the earths core down completely, I mean, what has that hot core ever done for us except create the magnetic field around the earth protecting us from the suns radiation stripping away our atmosphere. Who needs an atmosphere when you have a spaceship! Get rid of it I say! Then finally we can have our hole all the way through an we can drive spaceships through the planet all day without any stupid dirt stopping us! You could possibly build some sort of plasma container around your tunnel by instead of cooling the surrounding magma you super heat it into a plasma and then contain it with a super strong magnetic field, but that would require like... tons of energy, and magnetic fields stronger than anything we can make today.

when i was a little girl, i was told that australia, where my paternal grandma had emigrated, was the exact opposite side of the world to britain, where i live, so i had this daft idea that , if i dug down deep enough, i would come out in australia , so that i could visit my paternal grandma, so i took my little, metal spade out into the garden & started to dig a "tunnel" to australia. i dug a little bit ,every day, eventualy, i had a hole, about 5 inches wide, just deep enough to put my arm in, up to my elbow. at this point ,my mam told me that it wasen't realy possible to dig a hole right through the earth as there would be miles & miles of solid rock in the way that my spade wouldn't be able to dig through. don't kids have funny ideas!

Forwarding that..: And then we would end up at the ice wall.
There is 4 kinds of earthers(I know so far):
1.The Earth is *Round* believer
2.The Earth is *Flat* believer
3.The Earth is *Cube* believer
4.The earth is *invisible bud have gravity and lot stuff*

This is a perfect example of what's wrong with any number of YT videos and countless articles and videos in the media and stories in news operations: What's the deepest hole we can dig? And the video begins with a deluge of trivia that has NOTHING to do with the question posed by the video title. And this goes on for 6+ minutes and that where I say, "Bye bye."
You have learned well, young Paduan.
You didn't answer the question.
Yes he did.
Where did he answer the question?
He answers the question in 2 ways explaining that they weren't able to drill deeper because the heat would not allow it, and also giving the full depth of the earths crust. Our current technology won't allow us to drill any deeper. Future technology may allow us to go deeper, but we wont ever get further than the crust.
So you're assuming the Soviet's several decades old drilling tech is the most advanced humanity could manage today in 2017? That's ridiculous. - No the question was never answered.
He also set the premise that if our sole purpose on this planet is to dig as deep as we can how far could we have dug?
He didnt aswer it and just put a bunch of random depths that the internet already has thousands of videoes on.
I love how Real Life Lore measures distances by how long it would take you to hit the ground.
And uses the unit of an "entire phone call" to emphasize. Lmao terrible reference point
while thinking about what you have done.
how do they know how long it would take a human to hit the ground at that depth? do they just push someone or something
@Russian Occupant I don't know what kind of 8th grade you had, but fucking hell, you had it rough.
I'd love to imagine you fall down into a hole and call an expert of that hole about what to do. Would be quite an akward conversation.
The question you didn’t answer was “how deep would we get if we put our collective minds to it with the technology of today” still, great vid and scary how little we’ve accomplished in this field compared to space travel, for example.
Yeah shit video, i was waiting for his analysis but all i got was facts and figures
I’m very bothered by this..
Glad I’m not the only one.
Poses good question. Doesn’t even attempt to answer that question.
Same, I was really hoping to hear how far we could "dig" not drill.
Yeah....totally wrong title. Misleading.
I don’t think they dig nuclear waste deep enough
It can be much closer to surface without being dangerous. It's buried that deep because of the concern of future humans accidentally mining them out
why? there is provable science to how it decays and reacts with stuff around it. Assuming the disposal is done properly its totally safe.
Nobody:
Minecraft players: PATHETIC
yea that is the problem everyone plays minecraft and saying bad things about it
@Jonathan Stiles yeah but you can dig much farther than 6k blocks (1 block is 1m) horizontally
Thanks for the likes!!
LoL

@@Doc62J you would be lower than a toilet.
@@ibadatsidhu81 huh? Is that a weak attempt at humor?
Holding
but what depth is possible to dig at? you never answered the question, only how far have we so far gone.
Hogan Pope We can digg as deep as we want as long as we have a material that doesn't melt from high temperatures, there's a movie about it
About 2800 km, at that depth there's a temperature of around 3000 Kelvin, so Tungsten could still work to build with, but lower than that and even tungsten melts. (It's not a sharp limit, just an approximation).
The theoretical limit is all the way through if we just get rid of that pesky heat melting everything, like let's say we cool the earths core down completely, I mean, what has that hot core ever done for us except create the magnetic field around the earth protecting us from the suns radiation stripping away our atmosphere. Who needs an atmosphere when you have a spaceship! Get rid of it I say! Then finally we can have our hole all the way through an we can drive spaceships through the planet all day without any stupid dirt stopping us!
You could possibly build some sort of plasma container around your tunnel by instead of cooling the surrounding magma you super heat it into a plasma and then contain it with a super strong magnetic field, but that would require like... tons of energy, and magnetic fields stronger than anything we can make today.
Thank you
If instead of drilling we actually dug a fairly large sized pit we could probably get some ventilation going and use that to cool everything off.
Wow, you actually Pronounced Kiev correctly ! Thank You! 1:23

So did you hit bedrock level yet? 🤔

The Companions were with the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and they heard the sound of falling or bang. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) asked them: "Do you know what that sound is?" They replied: "Allah and His Messenger know best." Then he told them that this is the sound of a stone that was thrown in Hellfire seventy years ago, and it has been descending in Hellfire until now when it hit the bottom of the Hellfire pit. What you heard was the sound of Hellfire making noise when the stone fell inside.

Interesting, but this video gets so wrapped up in its advertisement that it forgets to answer the question in the title.
This needs to be the most popular comment. Either answer the title question, or change the damn title to “What is the deepest hole dug by humans?”
Lmao yes 👏🏻

He did say the temperature got too hot for the drill to operate, and it'll only get hotter from there. At some point the rock becomes molten so it'd be like trying to dig through really hot mud.
Oh the deepest concert ever held happened at 1,410 meters down... ALL MY QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED NOW
Jot Singh 😂😂 right

Bass must have been the deepest bass too :P
when i was a little girl, i was told that australia, where my paternal grandma had emigrated, was the exact opposite side of the world to britain, where i live, so i had this daft idea that , if i dug down deep enough, i would come out in australia , so that i could visit my paternal grandma, so i took my little, metal spade out into the garden & started to dig a "tunnel" to australia. i dug a little bit ,every day, eventualy, i had a hole, about 5 inches wide, just deep enough to put my arm in, up to my elbow. at this point ,my mam told me that it wasen't realy possible to dig a hole right through the earth as there would be miles & miles of solid rock in the way that my spade wouldn't be able to dig through. don't kids have funny ideas!
This is pretty sweet actually.
The worst part is that the opposite of Australia is in the middle of the Atlantic ocean.

@@milliehi9546 yes, i am, though i don't speak the language unfortunately, although i always pride myself on being, at least, able to pronounce all the place names correctly! was it my use of the word " mam" for my mother that gave it away?. i actualy always called both my grandmothers "nain" but i don't use that word on you tube because i think that probably no one outside of wales would know what it meant ! my maternal nain cound speak welsh, fluently, as both her pairents spoke it.

over 12000meters and you still didnt found diamonds,damn this game is tough
At sea level in a normal minecraft world you only need to go about 50 blocks(50 meters) down to hit diamonds. So not to bed tbh.

And at 70,001 meters down, you hit bedrock level.
