yes it is. Britney Gallivan folded it 12 times in 2002 after coming up with an exact limiting equation.
You can fold a sheet of notebook paper 6 or 7 times but no more.♥adrianna Nicole lockwood wrote this♥
In half each time, is very unlikely.
nope ive tried it :( multiple times....Well, it depends on what you mean. Of course you can fold a piece of paper lots of times. What you can not do is fold a piece of paper in half lots of times.Your typical piece of paper is about 0.1mm thick. Each fold in half doubles the thickness, so by the time you have folded it 7 times it is 2^7*0.1 mm thick, that's 12.8mm, call it 1/2 an inch thick. And by then your piece of paper is rather small. If it started 8 1/2 x 11, it is now 11/8 x 17/8 inches, or about 1 1/2 inches by 2 inches. (ignoring the size of he folds)The next fold would make it 1 inch thick, and the outside of the fold would be a half circle 1/2 inch radius using pi/2 inches of paper, call it 1 1/2 inches. This isn't going to work.
I believe it is 7
The answer is 17.78 I did it on paper but you can also do it on a calculator
Yes. You can. If you fold it, turn 90 degrees and fold it again. I saw it on myth busters. They folded a paper the size of a football field 11 times. with the help from NASA. But with a regular 11x8 paper, i don't think it is possible.

7-8 times
It depends on the context. In general, you can fold a piece of paper in half multiple times, although the number of folds possible is limited by the thickness of the paper and the dexterity of the folder. Mathematically, the maximum number of times a piece of paper can be folded in half is around 7-8 times due to the exponential increase in thickness with each fold.
You can. The present record is 12 times
In half each time, is very unlikely.
When you fold a piece of paper 7 times and then crush it with a hydraulic press, the paper will likely break or tear due to the immense pressure applied by the press. Folding the paper multiple times weakens its structure, making it more susceptible to damage when crushed.
It's physically impossible to fold a piece of paper more than 7 times.
The problem is that after the seventh fold you're dealing with a wad of paper that's a) small and b) thick ... 256 sheets thick, which means making that 8th fold is probably going to require a hydraulic press.
yes if it is not in half, but if you you mean in half, then: A normal piece of paper, no. The width becomes to thick and the length too small. But here are some websites where they get a huge piece of paper so the length doesn't become too small, and they can do it 11 or 12 times: http://pomonahistorical.org/12times.htm http://blogs.howstuffworks.com/2009/07/23/why-cant-you-fold-a-piece-of-paper-more-than-seven-times/
Well, darling, technically you can't fold a piece of paper more than 7-8 times, unless you're a magician or have biceps of steel. The thickness of the paper increases with each fold, making it harder to bend. So, unless you're looking to break a sweat and potentially break the laws of physics, stick to a maximum of 7-8 folds.
In theory, paper can be folded in half more than 7 times, but it becomes increasingly difficult as the number of folds increases. The thickness of the paper and its size are limiting factors that make it practically impossible to fold a standard piece of paper more than 7-8 times.
