Man... plate tectonics are fucking wild, dog.

If you think that is wild Venus just randomly decides to completely swallow its entire surface every once and a while and the build a new one.

although we have no evidence of it ever happening to earth there is no reason it necessarily couldn't happen one day.

Think about this the earths crust is only 19 miles thick (30km) that is less than I used to drive to work

The Earth's crust is only 1/200 the thickness of the earth, an unknown geologic change could cause the entire surface to reshape over night.
