If you yelled for over 8 and a half years, you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee

The amount of sunlight reaching the earth's surface is 6,000 times the amount of energy used by all human beings worldwide. The total amount of fossil fuel used by humans since the start of civilization is equivalent to less than 30 days of sunshine.

In that sentence, there is an implied subject of "you" with the result being "(you) go."

If the sun were to burn out, it would take about 8.15 minutes for anyone on earth to feel/see the affect.

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the average U.S. woman is 5' 3.7 (162 centimeters) tall and weighs 152 pounds (69 kilograms). The average U.S. male stands 5' 9.1 tall and weighs 180 pounds

Im 5'11" @ 150lbs so I'm taller than the average male height.

Ya, but without the actual subject in the sentence i'm pretty sure it's still just a fragment rather than a complete sentence. 'I go' would make it a tie for shortest.

It is. It's not a great sentence, but it's a complete one. Subject-predicate.
I looked it up, and i think Lightfoot is right. 'Go!' is a command, and the 'you' can be implied. Just like 'Stop!'

If you're on a bridge and there's a lion on one side and a bear on the other, which would you shoot first?
