I'm serious but I'm still gonna get some jokes in. :rolleyes:



Blatant computer graphics with errors all over the place. Sega Genesis lookin ass graphics and shit. Hollywood does a better job of faking the globe. Nigga I know a bump map when I see one or better yet the absence thereof.

I've yet to see one rocket or weather balloon piece of footage showing a curve or a descending horizon.

so the ones you believe are real and the ones you don't are fake

Gotcha

Hint: You've cited videos from accounts that have also posted videos of earth's curvature, Corky.

Depends on your eye. You can realise the curvature of the Earth by just going to the beach. Last summer I was on a scientific cruise in the Mediterranean. I took two pictures of a distant boat, within an interval of a few seconds: one from the lowest deck of the ship (left image), the other one from our highest observation platform (about 16 m higher; picture on the right):
A distant boat seen from 6 m (left) and from 22 m (right) above the sea surface. This boat was about 30 km apart. My pictures, taken with a 30x optical zoom camera.
The part of the boat that is missing in the left image is hidden by the quasi-spherical shape of the Earth. In fact, if you would know the size of the boat and its distance, we could infer the radius of the Earth. But since we already know this, let's do it the other way around and deduce the distance to which we can see the full boat:

Even though the rotation speed is over 1000mph?

And on a tennis ball all the water drain off :confused:

NASA could take him into space in a shuttle and he’ll say that it was just an advanced flight simulator.

There’s nothing anyone can tell him or that he could see that would change his mind. It’s actually sad if you think about it.

it is actually quite sad. But he so belligerent about it so I'm gon still kick his wheelchair

Okay, Bruh. Get taught. None of that bullshit from YouTube either. Off the cuff. F = MG but F = MA also. This formula is Force = mass times gravity and Force = mass times acceleration

1000 mph means sense for the earth's mass.

Bruh, I want to know who turned him.
:lol2:

Bruh, I'm feeling this tik tok app right, and they have live action cameras around the world. People are outside and it's daylight in Japan. Wouldn't it be dark on flat earth?
Why complicate this especially when do you don't understand grade school fundamentals. THIS IS GRADE SCHOOL SCIENCE.

he does not understand math

It's why he tries to talk his way through this shit

Because he doesn't understand math

Which is lucky for him because there's none to support any of this foolishness anyway so it works out

i have a simple question i don't think has been asked
if the earth is flat and the sun and moon are circling inside a dome over it
where are the other planets and how come they seem to be round and rotate?
also if they are flat why are they oriented so that the appear round from earth

he think they are just small balls of light. Not kidding.

I wonder if he thinks satellites are hoaxes?

@cashwhisperer what's your theory on satellites?

He’s not remedial, he’s actually very intelligent and knows his stuff and also pays attention to detail.

He didn’t post the view at nose or teeth level, he made sure to post the view at “Eye” level so that we’d see his perspective.

Wow.

So every company that has satellite programs in which physical satellites were built and launched, which requires hours to years of work and teams of people to do...
everyone involved in the creation and deployment of tools used to perform whatever science or task these things are designed to do from orbit...

that completed secondary education and probably all hold advanced degrees centered around math that supports global orbital mechanics...

from different nations, many adversarial and with differing to competing to completely opposite motivations...

EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THESE POSITIONS AND INDUSTRIES...

Has been tricked into...what exactly?

Bro. Real shit.

This doesn't sound fucking insane to you?

I'm not yo nig. Even with a picture you can't comprehend it. Do us a favor and just start running until you fall off the flat earth.

I can't even express it in simple terms. Look, we're dealing with high school floaters. Dead ass. Sure, if I didn't math and some physics, I'd be a flat earther, too. I'm telling you this is the best way to screen dates.

Look at all the people who attended that rally in Dallas. We need internet black out days. I swear none of them read books on nothing lately. No books at their cribs.

NASA is not needed to confirm the earth is a sphere. NASA never educated me. Folks get educated first, then get recruited there. Stop the regression, folks.

Nigga

I am not watching no hour and a half video about this bullshit

Give me a condensed version, cliffsnotes, or kiss my ass

I watched a little bit and I saw that it said what I have heard you say about comms data being transmitted through undersea cables. If there's more than that, talk about it muhfucka

Even conditioning answering a direct question with the questioner having to watch a fucking 90 minute video is some obvious bullshit man lol you should feel like an idiot for having to flip through that playbook of evasive maneuvers every fucking time you post man. Don't you realize that's not how you should have to act if you knew what the fuck you were talking about? You can't be that simple or think all of us are that simple.

And I'ma start numbering these so there's a record of how many times you avoid answering the same questions for the 50-11th time

I'll start now and call this the second time you've avoided answering even though it's like the 20th and tried to throw me off by posing yet another question

Gotdamn you are a fucking shameless worm man lol wtf kind of nigga is you

"If you don't watch this hour and a half long video then I'm not talking about it."

Does this nigga think he's fucking slick??

Lmaaao

Nigga just say you can't talk about the shit

I'm Dr Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford. I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me!

Why does the Southern Hemisphere get the best view of the Milky Way?

The first scientific estimates of the Earth’s circumference were made by the Greek mathematician and geographer Eratosthenes in 240 BC. He noted that on the 21st of June that year, in a town called Syene (near modern day Aswan), the reflection of the sun could be seen in a deep well, meaning that it was directly overhead.

But in Alexandria, around 800 kilometres away and almost directly north of Syene, at noon on the same day, the angle of the sun was about seven degrees – or one-50th of a circle.

If the Earth was actually flat, the angle would be identical in both places. “From this, he concluded that the circumference of the Earth must be 50 times the distance between Syene and Alexandria,” Ms Jayasuriya adds. “This gave him a figure that was very close to the actual circumference as we know it now.”

As well as observations of the sun and its shadows, Many scientists throughout history continued to gather observations and evidence that the Earth is spherical including:
  • That we see the top of a ship’s mast coming into port and not the entire ship
  • That all other planets and celestial objects are spheres
  • That during a lunar eclipse, the Earth’s shadow on the moon is curved
So why, despite overwhelming scientific evidence that the Earth is an “oblate spheroid” – a sphere that’s squashed at its poles and swollen at the equator – is the flat-Earth movement gaining traction in the 21st century? Well, in part, according to School of Culture and Communication lecturer Dr Jennifer Beckett, it’s due to a general shift towards populism and a distrust in the views of experts and the mainstream media.

Dr Beckett also notes that the burgeoning movement speaks to how so-called social media “influencers” can now hold more sway than an expert in the field. “That’s often because they tend to be better storytellers,” Dr Beckett says. “And there’s an element of authenticity there – people naively think, ‘Oh, they’re a real person, so it must be true’.”

Nope.

Thats not the horizon his camera is pointing at.

You are using words that you do not understand.

Even words as simple as "horizon", you and the dumb fuck who made this video do not have a fucking clue what you are talking about.
