Well, technically, it wouldn't be possible for a chunk of antimatter to be heavier than you.

But yeah, one theory is that if you hold one that's more massive than you are, its repulsion would overpower your attraction, and bang, zoom, straight to the moon!

it should be repelled by moon's gravity back to earth - recursion... =))
Not unless it's in a tube, and it would quickly reach an equilibrium anyway.
Unless he starts using his legs for extra propulsion!
In a vacuum?
Could be against the sides of the tube..
Well played, sir.
Surely there is a reason NASA trains underwater. ;)
