I just want teleporters, so that I can teleport somewhere high in the sky. Then when I am close to the ground I will teleport back up. I will continue this cycle until gravity accelerates me to the speed of light. That will take around 354 days of continuous free-fall. Then I will collide with the Earth with 3.15x10^18 J of kinetic energy (assuming I'm 70kg, and ignoring Einstein's physics). Consequently I'll have a nice crater named after me
.
Not only is it physically impossible to travel to the speed of light (come on you have done physics), you want to crash into the ground?
