The guy would have enough force to break past the source but the pull would mean he would slingshot back and forth until he stopped altogether.
Johanson said:I asked my science teacher this exact question in year 7, he said you would sort of go up and down at the center until you stopped due to air resistance. (I used to be such a clever little boy, ah well )
But if you did dig a hole straight through the middle, would that not mess up the whole Earth's gravity in any way?
The Daleks tried to extract the core of the planet, does that count?MookJong said:Has anyone here actually tried this before?

will your eyes roll though? are you there? is that what's created that effect?Amleto said:if there is a hole in the 'centre' of the earth, and you are in it, you wont experience any gravitational net force. you wont get crushed , you wont get torn apart

Zip said:Or would you just get crash or torn about from both forces pushing an pulling each way?
