Tried to explain to my daughter how if you had infinitely thin paper and infinitely many folds, you could cut the Koch snowflake with a single cut. Inspired by the Jan. 6 entry of @evelynjlamb’s page-a-day calendar.pic.twitter.com/a4Aa7A8EFV

have you tried really cheap tin foil? that's what i used to test the "you can't fold a piece of paper in half eight times" thing.
And how many folds did you get?
According to the formula, both the thickness and length requirements for n folds increase exponentially. It seems you're better off just getting a (much) bigger piece of paper, and even then don't expect more than one or two extra folds.pic.twitter.com/qVtnPKjssr
Shuldn't "infinitely thin" be the same as "infinitesimally thick", which is what you meant? Likewise, "infinitesimally thin" should be "infinitely thick", which really isn't. Well, if usage were logical, anyway.
Of course the image itself was made with vector lines. So a finite number of folds would suffice to get to the same level of approximation.
