It’s a little hot down there.
They’re working on it though.

We can't even get very deep before it is too hot and all modern equipment fails.

This got a chuckle out of me.
Well done.

When I was a kid. Then about 5 feet down I started to hit water and my Dad was pissed at me and my brothers.

Y'all are killing me 
Is this a boy right of passage?? I still remember the arse beating I got for trying.
Parents just don't respect the scientific process
I'm still laughing

I'm no scientist but how could the center of the earth, which is just short of 25k miles in circumference, be only 4k miles to the center? Wouldn't the center be 12k miles or so deep?
25k = 3.14 * diameter
Diameter = 8k
Radius (distance to center) = diameter/2
Radius = 8k/2
Radius = 4k

I tried at 3 or 4 years old.

Once you'd get to a certain point ( not even close to the center, btw ) the temperature and pressure would be too high.
I'm no physicist but what happens when high pressure meets a hole?

That’s a conspiracy. “Big utilities” just doesn’t want you to find the treasures.

You can't bc the Earth is flat. You'll just fall once you break through.

Aaron Eckhart did it that one time

I was pretty sure at one point during basic training while on our final bivouac that our drill sergeant intended for us to dig to the center of the earth.

No, but I’ve got a hole in my heart that goes all the way to China.
