It's true, a glimmer of the proof can be easily grasped. The analogy between the Godel sentence and the Liar's Paradox, "this sentence is false", is not perfect but almost isomorphic. I think this is rather the most curious feature of the theorem, that a 5-year old could understand it, at least a glimmer of it. Now there is a big gap between grasping it somewhat and being able to consider its full ramifications.
