unstoppable force
Cannot be halted
An unstoppable force is something that cannot be halted or resisted—momentum so powerful that nothing can stand against it.
The phrase often appears in the philosophical paradox asking what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object.
In practice, it describes overwhelming momentum: The team became an unstoppable force in the playoffs, Technology is an unstoppable force reshaping every industry.
