Best Answer

The closest a person could get is a few miles into the earth, leaving hundreds of thousands of miles between the surface and the core. The crust is about 22miles thick, and as you progress from the surface, heat and pressure increase, thus unprotected a person can only travel so deep across such a length of time before the changes in temp and pressure become dangerous.
