Ever try it -- pretty tough. Here is a link to an attempt to do so.

The trick is not in choosing a large sheet of paper, but an extremely thin one, almost like a membrane. Each fold makes the thickness double. With 7 folds it becomes 2^7 = 128 times. The edge along which the fold needs to be made becomes progressively thicker

After the fourth or fifth fold, the "performer" states "It's getting hard."


"Growing up my dad was like 'You have a great last name, Galifianakis. Galifianakis...begins with a gal...and ends with a kiss...' I'm like that's great dad, can we get it changed to 'Galifianafuck' please?" -- Zach Galifianakis
