How many impossible things, actions, what ever, can you think of?

It's not hard to think of something impossible.

I can do it.CompuChip said:Turning your hand one direction, and the same foot the other (for example, turn your left hand clockwise and your left foot CCW).
Evo said:I can do it.

Playing the sax solo from Gerry Rafferties Baker street while kicking a football up an escalator.
Opening a bag of Doritoes whilst standing in a hammock.
Being right in an argument against an angry woman.
Reading a copy of The Daily Mail without rolling your eyes, regardless of how right or left wing you are.
Unicycling backwards across a tight rope juggling whilst drunk.
Which one ?wolram said:1 out of 6, not bad
Now that's impossible, but not as impossible as teaching a snake to lap dance.Danger said:Teaching a snake to tap-dance.
That is not, strictly speaking, impossible. Very unlikely, I admit it. Unlikely things are easy to imagine :radou said:Wearing your pants on your head and going to take an exam.

RetardedBastard said:You are all very wrong. Everything above that has been listed as being impossible are all actually possible. Literally, in the last 3 minutes, I was able to accomplish all of them.
I think Evo will be the one most eager to hear how you managed to do all those. :tongue2:RetardedBastard said:Everything above that has been listed as being impossible are all actually possible.
I do not think we lack imagination. Combing a hairy sphere flat is definitely impossible, as it is a well defined statement. You will not be able to pull a quark out of an hadron either. Why ? Because it is self-contradictory. There is no lack of imagination in that.ice109 said:it's called imagination folks

Try to find a way out of Godel's theorem if you have so much imagination. Otherwise, it will provide you with yet another impossible thing to do. To prove it is impossible, Godel used a lot of imagination.
"Impossible: Ideas, Actions & More" is a book written by the scientist and author, Stephen Hawking. It explores the concept of impossibility and how it has been challenged and overcome throughout history.
The book covers a wide range of topics including physics, mathematics, philosophy, and history. It also delves into the realms of science fiction and imagination.
The book is written for a general audience, but it may be particularly interesting to those who are curious about the limits of human knowledge and the possibilities of the future.
This book is unique because it combines scientific concepts with philosophical ideas and historical examples to explore the concept of impossibility in a thought-provoking and accessible way.
Readers can expect to gain a deeper understanding of the concept of impossibility and how it has been challenged and overcome throughout history. They will also be encouraged to think about the possibilities of the future and the power of human imagination.
