When i was young(when i was in class 8), i had a friend who was a kind of bully but, has a deep love for physics and literally worshiped Albert Einstein. He used to read his biography a lot and from that i came to know about the famous formula E=mc^2. He started bragging about it so i got irritated by it and want to humiliate him by disproving the formula(Yeah i waged a war on Einstein :p) and i was successful (if success meant making your peers believe ;-) ) and here is my proof that contradicts itself. Its a kind of dimensional analysis but i didn't know it was until i was in class 11 (Remember that i was in class 8 and the only unit of energy i know was calories and there was no internet)
I asserted that whenever we multiply length with length (like in area) the m that indicates meter gets multiplied by the other m like in algebra to become m^2. I tested my theory on some of them like volume, area of a circle and they stood this assertion, and when i applied it on Einstein's energy formula it failed(the only unit of energy that i knew was calorie) little did i know that Kgm^2s^-2 is also a unit of energy. But why care when you got what i wanted :p
