The problem lies in what "unstretchable" and "unbendable" means. Its always molecules and your push takes time to reach the other end. You think its instantaneous because you never held such a long stick. The push signal is slower than the light
Speak for yourself! ๐
Is it instantaneous though?
It depends on the person who's holding it and pushing it. For me it takes at least three minutes!
