The evidence is that the universe will continue to operate naturally whether Hercules held or did't held. The evidence is that there are abstracts tending to the universe (Eternity, Infinity, LT, etc.)
Nothing would have happened if Hercules would have said, ".... it, I'm letting go"
Also the sky could be understood as the atmosphere, not the universe.
Lastly, the universe isn't infinite my friend. There is a finite amount of matter and space. So even if we entertain the notion that hercules held up the universe then it's still not infinite weight.
