Adam and 2nd impact

[GiZMO]

2nd impact was caused by trying to shrink Adam to an embryO?

If this is right, they tried to shrink adam into an embryo why?

And also, why exactly did it cause a massive explosion


( i heard things from other threads that he was shrunk to cause less damage even though it didnt work , but my question is how did they know he would explode, and why would they mess with it in the first place )

i guess to advance in technology
you will have to mess around with new stuff

but i'm not sure if they really knew it would explode

They were trying to take out his s2 organ...

or maybe also so that they could put him somewhere "safe" so an angel wouldn't return to him and wipe out humanity

or to make humanity a god, or to destroy everything...

and they knew it was going to explode, atleast the "higher ups" did. That's why Gendo left 1 day before it happend

I thought they tried to make a copy of him or something and he got angry about it and threw the tantrum that was the 2nd Impact

humans found Adam and tried to capture it. Adam went berserk (how would u feel if some little kid like creatures like rabbits tried to make u hostage and experiment on you? in Adam's point of view he should be angry) and actually blasted half the world for that. that's second impact. while this impact he used so much energy that he shrunk back to his embryo form. This concludes Gugueater's theory of Second Impact.
