I'm not positive, but I don't think that is how it works. Light speed is constant relative to position. Meaning, if I am in a craft moving at half the speed of light and I turned on my headlights, one may think that the light-beam only moves away from the craft at the OTHER HALF the speed of light, but this isn't so. The light still moves away at 186,000 miles per second.
Light speed is constant relative to position. It is a barrier. I've read on the ultra-dimensional ideas and how they speculate they can possibly fold space this way, but I don't understand it at all. And I really don't think anyone else does either. Unless someone is simply withholding the info.

^^What do you think is made so in that respect by man?
Maybe they are talking about your bowel movements after eating at a bad mexican restaurant.....i know thats almost faster than instant
But seriously....if you were on some sort of craft moving at the speed of light....and you somehow walked at 1mph to the front of the craft...would you be moving 1mph quicker than the speed of light? Sorry im a bit rusty on my physics

I think, if I remember rightly from school, the answer is no, you wouldn't be. But I really can't remember why, just that it has to do with relativity.
No one's anything else can top a still object that's was man-made by a faster speed.

Can I have some of what ever you're smoking?
Speed is measured in units, from Mph to Light years. Your theory states no measurement...I honestly don't know what you're trying to say.

I always figured the speed of thought was based on electrons moving and since they also move at the speed of light, would be equal.

To measure what is faster than light speed, just use your common sense mind. Let your mind be the unit it can be measured in.
From place to place a still object, in of itself, is in it's own place faster than light speed. That is faster than reaching a distance in light speed

Final example to remove any actual doubt, not the fronting, claimed doubt..
The rock, in of itself, remains still. Your shaking cant take that away from the rock if it remains intact the same rock before and during your even shaking it in hand in how it is meant being.

hmmmmm so now if you shake a rock, inside of the rock whilst shaking is going faster than the speed of light?
So why do I not hear any sonic booms when I break the sound barrier? as these are not theories but facts
