this may not be earth as we know it, but just for comparison the Earth’s radius is about 4,000 miles, so the poor tyke has not even reached the center yet. if he plans on going all the way to New China he still has more than half his journey ahead of him. of course even in an air pocket the pressure far exceeds what it would be on the surface. not wishing any harm on a child i’ll point out that it is surprising his teddy bear hasn’t been squished into a puddle of goo. that and temperatures within the outer core range from 7,200 to 9,000 F …. so the goo would have turned to ash almost instantly.
based on this, clearly the boy did not fall downward as the mysterious information panel here would have us believe. instead when he fell he floated upward very fast onto a moving platform hidden by a cloud — and no one has thought to look for him in that direction. so he’s perfectly safe, as safe as a young boy on a moving platform in the sky could possibly be. it is probably chilly and a bit damp living in a cloud. but he can eat rainbows and never has to go to school again.
