Did man 500 years ago think that he could communicate instantly with another human on the opposite side of the planet (cellphone/internet)? ( Actually, 500 years ago they were just figuring out that the world wasn't flat.)
The spurt of knowledge and technology that has occurred in the last millennium shows that humankind can and will achieve things in the future that we in the present can only dream of.
Impossible? For us perhaps, but humanity is advancing, believe it or not.

Airplanes and cellphones don't bend the rules of physics as we know it, and yes I'd say we have 10,000 times the knowledge of physics than we did 500 years ago.
I'm saying, I don't believe it's possible for a human to survive the force that would be generated traveling at those speeds. I don't doubt the technology might one day be invented.
