They say it is impossible to fold a piece of paper more than seven times. The MythBusters test this classic myth by creating a massive sheet of paper the size of a football field inside a NASA hangar. When folding by hand fails at the seventh layer due to trapped air, they bring in a heavy-duty steamroller to crush the paper and push past the physical limit. Ultimately, the team manages to fold the giant sheet 11 times, creating 2,000 layers of history and completely busting the myth.
