Oh no jjan, tell me it ain't so...

You know the distance formula with latitude and longitude requires trig right? It's not the same one you learn in high school algebra.

It might be approximate over short distances... long distances, it just doesn't work.

But what is beyond the wall of ice that encircles us called Antartica? Since the earth continues horizontally in all directions FOREVER extending radially from the North Pole, there are endless new lands to explore and civilizations to conquer. Why has the government been hiding the truth?

What lay over the wall? Only the fools and Crows know and I'm not too certain the Crows are any wiser.

That's THE BIG COVER UP!!!! There is no South pole. You guys haven't studied their website yet, have you? There is an explanation for everything flat.

I like how the sun and the moon just kinda move in an assuming helical motion above the planet and there's a such thing as a vanishing point... lol wat?

The one I like the most however, is that the flat planet is accelerating(?) upward at 9.8 m/s...

I think they got their units wrong, it's m/s^2. If it was m/s, then you would smash into the planet at a whopping 9.8 m/s no matter what height you jumped off.

Now assuming they did mean 9.8 m/s^2, well, that would be even more silly than the above, as we would be flying upward at an un-computable number which might as well be infinite speed. Not to mention, the planet would have been space dust long before we were on it.

Oh, and that picture of the airplane above the planet and the whole horizon at eye level nonsense... SCALE MATTERS IDIOTS, YOU'RE DIAGRAMS ARE NO WHERE NEAR TO SCALE!

Anyway, it's all laughable. I would love to war it out with one of those numbskulls.

So if one of you idiots read this and want to take me on, feel free to sign up for an account, I'll battle with you.

No, I think he's a true believer. Even if he comes out and says he's not to save face, I don't buy it, it's already out there.

Was just reading about it, apparently it's a millennial movement thing, and a bunch of 20ishes are buying in to it.

You don't flat out say the earth is flat and not believe it, cause something like that will absolutely wreck your credibility for the rest of your life.

Just like he says he believes the Earth is flat, I believe that he believes the Earth is flat ;)

Kid can straight up ball though, so it's ok.

The planet accelerating upward is one explantain of gravity (which does not exist on a globe)......the other (my fav) is that stuff just falls.

I would be interested in seeing their equations for "stuff just falls".
