unfathomably
Past all comprehension
Unfathomably means in a way that cannot be understood or measured.
The word derives from fathom, a unit of depth for water, so unfathomably suggests something too deep to plumb: The universe is unfathomably vast.
It often intensifies adjectives of scale or complexity: unfathomably rich, unfathomably cruel, unfathomably stupid.
