Drywall question

How many average-sized people can you tape to the ceiling before it collapses?

Ooof, you hit the flex point between wood and metal but let's go with metal.

Now the real problem is that the span is probably large being at least 100' between walls but not to worry they are engineered to withstand at least three times the weight of the material. You know, in case it gets wet.

You can safely tape one person side by side from wall to wall and then foot to head two deep each way. DO NOT double stack butt to nuts. Don't.
