I understood what they mean with this paradox. I saw that there is a difference between my case and the bug-rivet or pole-barn paradoxes. They speak about long pole and a long barne. What if we turn the pole across and it's a 20m pole and the barn has a gate which is 19m wide will the pole pass...

I just red your last replay. I wasn't aware of tha barn - pole paradoxe I think this is the same situation? thank you after all. And sorry for the inadequat replies. hope I can count for your opinion in the future.

I am sorry but I think I am still missunderstood. let's say we have a train or something else moving with 80% of the speed of light, just enough for the space contraction to take effect. I am pretty sure I am facing a paradox here. In the first question i mensioned a detailed experiment...

Thank you for the fast answer! I think, that even if the train does not achieve or exceed c the space contraction will take effect and I really think that this will create different realities for the observer in the train and the one on the top of the tunel. The experiment could be made with a...

question for the Lorentz's space contraction I imagin this thought experiment: a train which travels with the speed of light is trying to enter a tunel which has absolutely the same form and dimmension like the train's shape, as if the the train goes slowly with his regular speed it will enter...
