| Because it's compressing a thousand layers together to form a single brick the size of a centimeter. Of course it's going to break. |

Also that doesn't explain how it breaks & why it breaks lmao.
I mean not logically but atomically why does it break.

| The layers of paper merge together due to friction/heat or something, leaving no room for any air to pass through it. Every bit of air is rather escaping, or getting trapped inside building up with each press, waiting to escape. |

But why do they merge together only at 7 folds ?

| Imagine the stress on the edges of the paper. It can only get so thin until something makes it explode. |
