What would if feel like gravitationally at the center of the Earth?

Asked by LostInParadise (31914points) July 18th, 2011

This is just a thought experiment. I know that it is very hot at the core. The net gravitation would be zero, but there is a gravitational pull in all directions. Would it feel like being torn apart? How strong would the force be in a given direction? I did a Google search on this, but all I can find is that the net force is zero.
