light reading

recently ive been thinking about some of the more light hearted sides of the systems we take for granted so for anyone bothering to read this (both of you) i have an idea, one of the fundments of physics is that nothing moves faster than the speed of light, it is a constant and to go faster would require an infinate amount of energy to accelerate any mass above 0. Are shadows faster than light? They get everywhere before light. they have a mass of 0 but clearly exist and as such do not require an infinate source of energy to make them go faster than light. They are a sum total of nothing but an infinate amount of nothing compared to a restricted amount and speed of light. So the question then is...
Is nothing faster than something?
