Digging A Hole All The Way To China

Well, according to this website, if I went in my backyard and dug a hole, I wouldn't come out in China, but rather in the Indian Ocean.
So, apparently, I've been lied to all these years. Not China at all. I would actually drown. That was probably the plan. Get me to dig a hole all the way to the other side of the Earth. When I got close, the hole would fill with water and I would drown.
Almost got me! Darned clever of you. But, I'm on to your plot!

Burn in Hell!
