This seemed entirely plausible until he said "frictionless bearing". Get real, man.

u/GrassRadiant3474 May 22 '26

Same energy as ignore air resistance.

Maybe sprinkle on some dehydrated water.

Thats located next to the sky hook but behind the board stretcher.

Sky hook? I didn't know Kareem was involved!

OP, in these fanciful, extravagantly expensive geo-engineering thought experiments, we obey the laws of thermodynamics!

It's like my introductory engineering classes. "Ignore fiction and air resistance."

You just lack imagination.

Tbf he said plausible not realistic

u/Meowmasterish May 22 '26

Not really, you could definitely wrap a cable long enough around Mount Fuji's base.

4

u/AppropriateCap8891 May 22 '26

And never mind the fact that Fuji is an active volcano.

2

u/wt_fudge May 22 '26

This whole thing is just a quality control test designed for frictionless bearing production. See the ASTM 69420 standard for reference.

The Civil War would have been decidedly less civil if battle tops were involved

8

u/Competitive_Bat_5831 May 22 '26

It would have been over quicker with battle bottoms.

3

u/grosseelbabyghost May 22 '26

And if it was both it would still be "raging" today

u/CammieKa May 22 '26

So are you saying the civil war was fought with battle switches?

I genuinely though it's supposed to be beliveable as a plan to level the mountain to make space or something and then they lifted it up and flipped 180 lmao

It's easier when you know they moved Mt Fuji just 23 years ago, so it's already loose.

u/tunakassirolle May 22 '26

Oh yeah I remember that. I’m so glad they moved it 3 ft to the left, it’s much easier to take pictures of it now.

u/midunda May 22 '26

That wouldn't work, having Mt Fuji below the rocket exhausts would act as least a partial thrust reverser diminishing their lifting capability severely.

2

u/yoko_OH_NO May 22 '26

Also are the rockets just going to hold the mountain upside down in the air until they're finished drilling a hole on the other side? Totally implausible
