I mean, the bottom. The trolley simply would stop, get gunked up by all the guts and the sheer amount of bodies so close together. Checkmate tolley.

    How do we know it's an accurate illustration? They might have jacked up the trolley with monster truck wheels or something.

    The illustration can't be accurate - you can't picture an infinite number of people between each pair of people, but the description is clear. The trolly can't progress because it can't get from the first person to the second due to the infinite people between them, and the infinite people between each of those between them, etc.

    Like in the second infinity you can't count to one, you can't count from 0 to 1*10^-1000
