    It is possible in theory to back up the internet but with todays technology you would need a very large period of time and a massive storage capacity.

    If you had a T3 connection (which is feasible) then there's still gonna be more data added every second than you can download every second. Thus, unless people stopped putting info up, you'd not be able to download it, unless you could get a faster connection.
    On a given day or given circumstance, you think you have a limit.
    And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit and you think "Ok, this is the limit".
    As soon as you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further.
    With your mind power, your determination, your instinct and the experience as well, you can fly very high.

    At the time of this post, Google can search 4,285,199,774 web pages.

    Imagine 1 byte of each web page - that's 4,285,199,774 bytes
    = 4,712,109 kb
    = 4,601 Mb
    = 4.5 Gb
    That means that to store one simple byte of every web page searched by Google, 4.5Gb is needed.

    Now most sites are easily above 100kb, others use 100kb per image so can go up to 10Mb at least.

    100kb * 4.5Gb/avg. byte = 4,500 Terabytes

    Good luck
