Is everything really possible?

The video shows things that seems to be impossible, but as people dedicated themselves to a particular thing, they did what wanted. Obviously, it's not right to believe in everything we see on the Internet, but my opinion about this is simple:

Impossible is nothing.


Ok, maybe something is this video is fake, but human beings just can't do it nowadays, or not? Couldn't us do anything we want? Maybe a proper training helps us. Michael Phelps won 8 gold medals at last Olympic Games. Why? Because he trained for this. Federer won 14 Grand Slams if i'm not mistaken. Who will be the next to have his name fixed in the history for doing something ALMOST impossible??

I'm going to get straight to the point, Is everything really possible?
No it is not.
Can you fly with only the use of your body? No.
Obviously not everything is possible.
This can be proven in so many ways that I can't even take this as a serious debate.
Also the way you typed some of this distracted me like:
"Couldn't us do anything we want?" and "Maybe a proper training helps us."
I'm thinking that maybe you need some grammar training.

Just to start off I would like to say that some people have raw talent for some items that life has to offer. Many people are gifted with different talents such as math, skiing, bowling or soccer. Some of these people in this video did some amazing things but they did things that were possible. People such as Cris Angel do some amazing things and give the people what they want. As much as Angel's audience wants to believe that what he does is real, there is no way possible to do some of those stunts.

Adidas uses the slogan "Impossible is nothing" to try and increase sales. What the slogan does is give people hope that they can be the best and no the things that they could not do by themselves. There are situations that seem impossible but they really aren't. An example would be a math question, it may seem impossible but they are always a solution. This also applies to other situations in the world such as the goal scored by Ronaldo in the video. I have one question for everyone thought? If that kick was impossible than how did he do it? Well the answer is that it in fact was possible but no one ever did it before.

It seems that some people try and amaze us by trying to prove the impossible as possible. Realisticly, all they are doing is making the impossible looking "act", possible.

All in all, of course there are impossible things in the world. Can you not blink forever? As simple as this question is, it is impossible to due.

Logically, not at all. I can't help but be reminded of the paradox of omnipotence (a common argument against the existence of an omnipotent God).

Example:
1. Make or find a rock you can't lift.
2. Lift it.

Although this example may seem absurd with regard to the physical realm (as we know it), logically, one of these criterion will never be met, proving that not everything is possible.

It was proved by physicals that people can cross walls. So, i believe in almost everything.



* And yeah, i need some grannar lessons, it's hard to learn another language, but i'm working hard on it *

I would like some sources for this to see. Also you may be referring to Free Running, but I'm not sure.

Walking on walls isn't everything, What about people breathing under water without any equipment? Just because someone can walk on a wall doesn't mean they can breathe under water.

(It's all good, I am learning Japanese, and yeah I feel your pain, English is the hardest language to learn.)

I think that although there are some limits to this world just based on the fact that our world was formed with laws of nature, (read physics, etc.) the potential of the human mind and body can not even be FATHOMED at such an early stage in Man's age.

There are people like Bruce Lee who pushed the body into a mode of such physical beauty that none thought possible because of his dedication to the martial arts and all things surrounding the controlling of one's body and mind.

Everything might not be possible, but I believe that we still have MILES AND MILES to go before we will ever reach an inkling of true human potential.

PLus the fact we could adapt to become even stonger, don't forget that

 

[KevinM]

Yeah that was like blatantly the whole point of my post.

Great comprehension.

Since time is apparently infinite, and the universe we exist in is possibly just a temporary bubble universe, one of many in the overall multiverse. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaotic_Inflation_theory, throughout time eventually any and everything will happen.


If given enough time, which we do indeed have considering time is infinite; and given enough universes, with each individual one having it's own unique set laws of physics, that of which there can potentially be an infinite amount of since time is infinite; yes it is very possible that everything will happen/has happened.

Since this is your first post, I will give some quarter in my analysis of the thread.

In short: This thread is not a debate, it's a question with a known answer. When making your way to the DH, these kind of threads are something that you want to avoid like the plague. Here is an example of a debate thread that can be responded in a single reply.

As aforementioned by Aqua, all one has to do with this thread is show something that is not possible to do, and it's done. Since that was done, there is nothing else to debate.

Also, please refer to this thread to help hone your debate skills.

Cheers.

I would like some sources for this to see. Also you may be referring to Free Running, but I'm not sure.

I learned this during mu Physics lessons this year, but i just don't rebember well the full explanation. It was in the begining of the year and i don't have the anotations that i was used to studied based on them, but i'm 100% sure it's not Free Running.


Btw, thx for the advice thegreatkazoo.
