    What happens when I create an infinite loop of screenshots?

    Do I create a gravitational singularity which consumes the universe and the end of everything?

    Working from a cafe while waiting for the kids to finish their Spanish lessons and studiously avoiding answering support requests :p

    It will approach very close to but never reach infinity.

    ... at this point I really really want someone to post a photo of someone with their face really close (but not touching) an Infiniti branded car. I would LOL.

    It's a mathematical prediction Simon.
    Did Einstein really experience time dilation?

    You're so lucky we didn't all die just then. I, for one, would have been very cranky.

    It seems the answer would be yes, it would collapse in on itself creating a singularity. As long as the loops have mass, which they do, if you multiply that by an infinite number; eventually the mass would be so great that it would collapse in on itself creating a black hole,at the centre of which would be a singularity of infinitely dense mass.

    The next time I punch someone in the face - I'm going to use this as my defence!

    Judge: 'pinkboy, do you plead guilty to punching that guy in the face'
    pinkboy: 'Your Honour, technically I didn't touch the guy, so I plead not guilty. Check out this youtube clip...'
    Judge: 'Not guilty. You're free to go!'

    But you can never get close to infinity. No matter how far you go, you're still just as far away from infinity as when you started.
