if you dropped a lightsaber....

I thought this fit more off topic than starwars.

If you dropped a lightsaber at a perfect 90* angle into the ground, it would fall all the way through the earth.

Thoughts? Comments?

I think it would stop becasue the handle is thicker than the laser....

yeah but i think the lazers heat would burn wide enough to fit the handle.

hmmm.....if it did go down wouldnt it stop at the really hard nickel and stuff because in Episode 1 he has to force it in the metal door.....

lightsabers could cut anything accept for another lightsaber...

Wouldnt the handle melt and the power be cut off when it hit lava.

Even if it went through the ground without the hilt stopping it, it wouldn't go all the way through the earth. If you could theoretically drill a hole through the exact center of the planet, it'd be impossible to drop something all the way through to the other side because it would switch directions once it passed the center point.

answer no because it would be forcfilymoved when going therough the earths crust and it reachs lava too 😉

Oh yeah thats a good point but we are talking about light sabers and they have powers....oooOOOOHhhhhhhhhh

ironically it would forever be moviogn too LoL

so it would just go bck and forth.............

Yup 😊 sides the pressure through earths crust would forcifially move it and stop it and the magma will melt or distabilize it 😉

Thats what I said!!!!!

I said Lava would melt it.......

i think most lightsabers are supposed to deactivate when there is nobody touching it

at least thats what ive gathered from the movies-like when obi wan disappeared his saber deactivated right then

ohhhh.........does the lightsaber have a safety switch.. it thinketh it should.......

then this thread is over LoL or.... u cut off your hand and glue it to the saber LoL

though hand weight'd move it LoL

no this thread is not over!!!!!!!!!!

what if you threw a fire-prrof, melt-proof lightsaber at the sun..would it go through?

You guys, you guys! Earth didn't exist a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, so this situation is utterly impossible. 😬

yea it wouldnt have enough force free falling like that... they dont always go directly through things

Hasn't anyone come to the conclusion that as soon as it TOUCHES any lava at all, the saber handle would simply melt?

No handle, no light saber.

And lightsabers tend to switch off, the only person who has shown to keep his saber on was Darth Vader when he threw his saber at Luke - but it still switched off. He probably modified it so that he could throw it, because throwing you're lightsaber is obviously something Jedi's don't do. But as we know, Vader is evil and would want to use such a reckless and dangerous attack.

Also, even if the saber was somehow magically lava resistant (which they aren't, in Attack Of The Clones Anakin's gets wrecked by a machine), it would just stop at the Earths core and not budge.
