Neutrinos be like "we're clearly the superior males" as they penetrate everything (except a light year of lead).
Ever since hearing this, I've wondered what would happen if one did have a lightyear of lead. Is it possible to stop a neutrino without destroying it?
What would happen if I collected a bunch of stationary neutrinos in one place? What would they look like? What would they feel like?
Considering they really hate interacting with stuff, they probably wouldn’t feel like anything.

So could I pick up a lump of neutrino matter? Or would they pass right through my fingers even when stationary?
The slower a neutrino goes, the faster it decays. This is because slowing it down makes time dilation less of a factor.
Neurinos are products of space-time dilation?
Not directly. But since fast objects are affected by time dilatation(time is slower for them(at least from our perspective)) they have a longer lifespan(from our point of view).
