Reply to comment by fox-mcleod in Eli5....can you dig a well anywhere and hit water...and how did the early ranchers in the West know where to dig for water. Especially in the really dry areas? by pinkshrinkrn

And if you dig deep enough you can jump in the hole and the momentum will carry you into the air in China, then you fall back though over and over again until someone slides a trampoline over the hole when you pop out

Flat earthers hate this trick!

Oh, it's flat. China and Australia are on the other side

Technically you would not pop out the other end. You would have just enough momentum to barely reach that point, even less due to air resistance, so you would need something to grab you out.
