Is it possible to make a hole from one side of the earth and come out from the other side?According to one estimate, if you start digging holes from one side of the earth, it will take you 2 billion years to get out of the other side.
But there is a problem. These pictures have the structure of the earth. Where you can see that about 29 percent of the earth is planimetric (flat) land. The rest is lava (Lava or Magma) and the core (Core).

So if you dig straight you will not see the other side of the earth except death.
If you start digging, you will find the world's first lava layer or mantle 100 km below. It is about 2,900 km thick. Made of complete laver. The deeper you dig, the warmer the soil. And you will die before you get to the first part of the mantle. So, no, it is not possible to get out of the other side by making holes in one side of the earth.
