How about space?
Take the finite quotient of differences of position and time of
a car and you get an approximation to its current speed. Now let
the difference become /infinitely small/ and you get the exact value
of the current speed of the car in that moment /in the real world/.
Achilles can never overtake the tortoise? Calculate the
/infinite series/ and get the correct answer: Achilles
can overtake the tortoise /in the real world/.
So, infinity is everywhere!
