    Well, I would first move the empire state building away so that it is right next to the hole.

    Then, I would push off my sister from the empire building so that she lands right into the hole...

    hahaha...

    I'm evil, I know, but I like it that way...

    =)

    If you asked that question about me, though I would probaly choose jump off the empire state building cause I always wanted to fly...

    Empire State Building

    I would rather jump off the empire state building, because in the middle of the earth is VERY hot and has melted liquids.

    whereas the emppire state building when you jump theres just air....

    If I had no choice (and no parachute) I'd jump into the hole. I know exactly what would happen if I jumped off the Empire State Building...a big splat. But who knows what might happen jumping into the middle of the Earth? It would probably just be fiery lava, but you never know. At least there'd be some hope.

    The hole. If you think about gravity, its force is based on the mass between the affected object and the center of mass of the planet emitting the gravitation. So as you approach the center of the Earth, I think technically the force of gravity would slowly weaken, since you'd have a smaller portion of the Earth's mass acting upon you in that direction. So by the time you reach the center, I think you'd slow down and ultimately come to a standstill right in the middle! Well, you'd already have velocity built up, so you'd still be moving at a good clip, but if you could slow yourself down a bit by dragging something along the side or spreading yourself out, the force of gravity woudl steadily weaken to the point where, well before you reach the actual center, you'd be in a state of near-weightlessness!

    I would rather jump off the empire state building because its quicker way to die than falling all the way to the middle of the earth.

    definatly a hole in the earth, the empire state building, i would just end up on the ground...BORING!!! now jumping into the middle of the earth at least i'll see some new sights before i die. and if it were even possible to make it to the center alive, you would probably float there due to gravity, and bounce around. sounds kind of fun to me

    Would I live in either task?

    If I'd die in both, I'd do neither.

    If I had to, I'd jump into a hole leading to the middle of the earth. Sounds more fun.

    A hole to the middle of the Earth. That way I would disintegrate along the way and be echo Friendly.
