Have you seen when Mythbusters busted the myth (does that sentence even make sense?)? I thought it was ridiculous that they used several huge rolls of paper and stuck them together to make one HUGE piece of paper.
On the children’s TV progam “How” they used aluminium foil as the “paper” and squashed it flat in a press after each fold. You can keep folding indefinitely that way.
HA! I got the same idea right after reading the headline.

You can actually do it without unfolding it first, if you have an infinitely large piece of paper!
But then you can only fold it once, and even that takes an infinitely long time!
Damn, I didn’t think of that :/
Maybe you want “Indefinite”.
That way it could be really big, but not infinite.

phffffft! Aluminum foil is not paper! Irrelevant!
Got a link to the 2002 debunking?

Pi gets everywhere.
Great one!
Lies.
If you keep folding and unfolding the paper eventually it’ll tear and so there’s a limit regardless of what you do 🙁
That’s why you need to use the patented _magic_ folding paper mentioned in the comic.
MythBusters busted this myth a while back, but only with an immensely large piece of paper
