The perfect gotcha question for flat-Earthers! If Earth were actually flat, digging a slanted hole would just send you out the bottom of the disc (hope you packed a space suit). But on our spherical planet, a perfectly angled tunnel through Earth's diameter would actually emerge on the opposite side—though you'd need to overcome that pesky molten core and crushing pressure first. The red line in the image shows the hypothetical tunnel path. Next flat Earth meeting challenge: bring a really, really long shovel and let's settle this debate once and for all!
Checkmate, Flat Earthers!
