| Is it impossible to fold a piece of paper more than 7 times? Nicholas says he can! (Let's see.......) |
 | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  |
| Nicholas set off with a huge piece of drafting paper, it was . First he folded it in half and then in half again. We discovered early on that if you continue to fold it this way, you can only get the paper to fold 6 times. |
| He continued to fold and fold over and over until he finally had to really put muscle into it and used his entire body weight to make the folds. |
| At fold number 6, he couldn't fold it anymore. So, I said, lets try folding it not on itself each time, but lengthwise onto it's self. |
| So as you can see in the above photo, folding the paper end over end we were able to fold it seven times, but no more! |
