You Could Dig Through the Earth? The deepest hole humankind ever dug only got one thousandth of the way through the earth. But what would happen if you kept digging? [S]
You Shrunk the Earth. We find out what would happen if you shrank the earth. You could jump higher and move faster, but you would end up with altitude sickness even at sea level. [S]
You Built the Tallest Building on Earth. We reveal how to create the ultimate in tall buildings by going to the moon and taking inspiration from wedding cakes. [S]
Money Grew on Trees. If you had a tree that could grow money, would that make you rich? Even if you wait 20 years for your tree to grow, you will probably end up no richer than you started. [S]

You Built a Giant Sandcastle. Is it possible to build a sand castle the size of a real castle? We imagine how it could be done, using a pneumatic drill and a huge, solid gold steamroller! [S]
You Walked on Ceilings. We try using a gravity-bending black hole and spinning the earth faster to see if we can make it possible to walk on the ceiling.. [S]
Animals Were Supersized. We look at whether some animals can get gigantic and find out that if you are being chased by a giant snail or a humungous butterfly, then fear not, you must be dreaming. [S]
You Lived on Venus. Venus has acid rain, crushing pressure, and is hotter than an oven, so it might not sound like the ideal place to live. However, up in the clouds it's almost just like home. [S]

You Walked Through Walls. Wouldn't it be cool to be able to walk through walls? From turning into a gas to quantum trickery, we discover why it wouldn't be quite as useful as you'd like. [S]
Earth Ran out of Energy. We try out a crazy idea from science fiction to build a giant sphere around the sun and give us more energy than we'll ever need. [S]

We Got Rid of Bugs. Bugs might be annoying, but we would soon regret it if we got rid of them - all our favourite foods would disappear, and there would be dung everywhere! [S]
