I'm scared.

doubt it.
i have never heard anything about this so called LHC or whatever irl, no-one has ever mentioned it & now people talking about it on here :S
seriously doubt it though
How could this possibly be true, with an article published in thesun but no world debate to stop such a thing? Thesun is so annoying, you should read the times.
:S why would you even consider spending that much on a geek machine when you could just give it to me?
The LHC is real, and there are various countdowns for it. It was supposed to go off about a month ago, then about a week ago.... it keeps getting cancelled or something.
There's about a 1 in 10,000 chance that it will blow up the world I heard.
It wont "blow up" the world. The hadron collider has been around for years now being constructed and different parts tested over and over again. I watched a few shows on it on discovery as I find this stuff interesting and I have to admire the people who made this thing. Its going to show them what happened to the universe millions and perhaps billions of years ago through recreating small black holes which will then be destroyed.
People are saying that creating so many mini black holes will eventually eat our earth from the inside out, but this is not the case as the diameter and width of those being created have already been proven to eat themselves into non-existence in space. I think its a day to celebrate some of the greatest minds in history, its a massive step in world history.
As the above said, it creates small black holes and this week is the launch. We may die, we may not. I am ready to die, are you?
the world could end now? it could end in a few mins? few hours few weeks?
What a reliable source </sarcasm>
with knowledge comes power, right.
barely anyone knows about it, so they think that having black holes inside the earth will be a bad thing. However, the scientists have told us they'll collapse by themseleves. If it wasnt safe do you think theyd go ahead with it anyway?
Great....
Dont want to die virgin pls.
Heard all about this, theres a one in a ridiculous amount of millions that this will kill us. After much research, I'm convinced we're safe. It has been proven to be safe and it will unlock science 'secrets' we never knew before. Don't worry :) Besides, its the sun, hardly reliable.
Edit - The title of the news article is a bit misleading, 'end of the world due in nine days' as if it will 100% happen.
It's more like a 1/50,000,000 chance of the world ending I think, and also the reactions they're forcing actually happen all the time naturally anyway, this is just more controlled
How exciting..
Lol, The Sun.. also look on the right hand side.
It wants us to eat 27 Big mac meals, in 9 days... Lol obviously its a joke.
Its not a joke, its just showing that the sun doesn't believe this crap about it might kill us all, so to the person who said something about thesun, please read the whole page.
The worlds not going to end until about 250 Billion yeas when the Plate Titonics and the sun stop working/burns out.
]It won't blow up the world, it'll nom nom it
I don't think this will happen, if it does, it'll be just before my birthday, the most important day of the year :(
LOLOL we shall see... can they wait and do it on the monday thou, so i can hav my bday weekend in peace?
It could end in 9 days yes, but I'm sure we'll find out in 10 days time.
But the world will definately end in 1 billion years at the maximum, when the sun starts to boil the Earth's oceans.
"The Sun" says it all.
My Physics Teacher was telling me about it earlier this year. It can end the earth but it's highly likely. The people who are against it want it to be 100% safe and do not want a 1 in anything. No way can they stop it from being used now. I highly doubt they'd allow a 4.4 Billion pound project to be finally finished and for then to pull the plug. Their is higher odds of that happening then the LHC destroying the world. Anyway, if it did, we wouldn't know about it so who is their to complain? Probably doing us a favor.

Definately, because The Sun never overexaggurates anything.
There is so many ways we could all die.
Plus if i die i will kill the scientist in hell.
And rapeh all you corpses :)
ill say no.
no.... is all i can sya
i say just do it, and if it ends the world we dont have to blame ourselves we can blame crazy scientists.
oh and plus at least we all finished our summer!!!!!!!
such a crap world anyway what is there to lose? If we all die, we all die :D
Everyone lets post here on the 10th.
Meh, in theory, Hawking radiation will mean the mini black holes will disintegrate far too quickly do do any damage. The chance of it ending the world is as near as makes no difference 0.
Plate Tectonics have nothing to do with the sun?
As some of the plates are "eaten" (burn up under the crust) new plate is made by lava etc.
I wonder what its like having the earth below you being "eaten", and then being "eaten" your self.

Shh, don't spoil their fun.
Doubt it will, if it did I imagine it'd be something like this lol.

Wonder what'd happen when you're inside...
You die when your inside, unless in the black hole there is a sun, an earth, a moon and air.
But I like spoiling their fun! :(
No such thing as black holes, it's a myth.
Precisely, but, if im honest I don't want to find out, but at the same time, I wan't to know about the universe!
Why doesn't air from Earth disperse out into space btw? XD
