nice question , friend
so , let's start by telling what actually is light's speed .

=> light's speed is the universal speed limit (i.e. nothing that we know can go faster than light)
it's speed is variable in different places but in vacuum or space it's all the same . speed of light in vacuum is 299,768,915 m/s or we approximately calculate it to be 3×10^8 m/s which is really very , very fast

=> now , let us talk about mass , mass is the quantity of matter in an object . it is constant for every object and every object has some mass ; negligible but yes , some mass (except photon that are light carrying particles , their rest mass is zero)
we will talk about that later
we humans have large quantity of matter in us , cell , tissue , bones etc so we have huge mass and we know that mass is directly proportional to force
the higher the mass of an object ,higher will be the force required to bring it into motion
kinetic energy , the energy which an object possess by virtue of its motion is directly proportional to mass , more the mass , more kinetic energy the object will possess.

now , main question , why cannot anything or anyone achieve the speed of light ?

the answer is simple , because of mass
as long as anything has mass it cannot travel at or even near the speed of light because mass requires kinetic energy which has to come from some source , so the mass is a hindrance in traveling at speed of light .
on the other hand , if anything does not possess mass , it simply does not exist (it has nothing in it , so it does not exist) but physicist believe that photons have rest mass zero so it can travel very much at speed of light and carry it

=> the main reason which we can say , E = mC²
where is E is energy required , m is mass and c is speed of light
as told earlier , speed of light is constant , so eventually E is directly proportional to m
more the mass more energy it requires to travel at speed of light

hope this helps

o0O0o: yes these which i want
o0O0o: please can u explain it theorycally
Anonymous: what do u mean ?
Anonymous: i don't get it
o0O0o: can u explain theorycally that no any elements catch the speed of light ?
Anonymous: i can , but i can't do it here

Answer:

you might imagine that you just need to increase the energy applied in order to reach the square of the speed of $300,000 but it turns out that it just is not possible for electrons to move that fast.
