About project Mohole:
From Trivia of the documentary "The Core (2002)"

In the film, it is stated that the deepest hole ever dug was 7 miles deep. This is an actual fact: the shaft in question is the Kola Superdeep Borehole, a Russian project.
7 US miles = 11km. The diametre of the Eaarth is 6367km in Montréal (6378km at equator).
So drilling 11km down is only 0.1% of the distance to the centre of the Earth.
