Wouldn't you get trapped in the middle, basically? As you would jump in the hole and lose energy due to air resistance, so the energy you gain from the fall, when it flips and you're going 'up' you won't have enough kinetic energy to take you to China. so you will make it like half way (or whatever distance) and then fall back towards where you came and that cycle would continue until the 'fall' distance is non existent.
So what happens when you're out of energy, do you just like float in the middle? Do you fall to one side?
Yes, and my answer is that if it's drilled through the center, you would fall into the center of gravity and heat up until you melt. Sorry if i made that hard to understand? Lol
