ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“What If?” by Randall Munroe explores a collection of absurd and outlandish hypothetical questions, applying scientific principles to provide detailed, often humorous answers. Munroe tackles bizarre scenarios such as what would happen if everyone on Earth jumped at once, or if a hockey puck traveled at superhuman speeds. The book blends rigorous science with wit, using real-world physics, biology, and other sciences to examine even the most far-fetched ideas. Through these explorations, Munroe invites readers to consider the limits of our understanding and the possibilities within science, while keeping the tone light and engaging.
