      The other thing that really gets me is the gross misunderstanding of gravity and what is "down." Like I've heard the theory that the flat Earth is supposedly accelerating upwards at 9.8 m/s^2 but never what's causing the acceleration, what it's traveling through, how it stays intact, or how any of the sky bodies stay above it. All things to skirt around the simpler observation "gravity pulls towards the center"

      In calculus, you learn that all curves are locally flat. Get a big enough curve and what is considered to be local can be quite large.
      How would flat earthers deal with bits of material that must have very little deviation in thickness? Would they look at it and say it’s good enough because they can’t see any difference in thickness? Out of spec might be microns, you’re not going to see that with the naked eye.

This gentlemen used to be a janitor at a NASA facility, and _he_ says this footage was actually filmed against a blue screen backdrop on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. The container 'ship' is actually a giant rolling cart, pulled by twenty Ford F-150s. The water and clouds are all CGI.

An intense thunderstorm some 60 miles distant was providing an amazing light show after dusk on our way home from a day out. I could not see the base of the storm or cloud to ground lightning. I could only see the top of the storm extending a few fingers above the horizon. additionally, heat lightning is where a thunderstorm is below the horizon and too distant to be heard but its lightning is reflected by high altitude clouds. So it's not really that hard to see the proof yourself.

(I'm not doing the math, but the highest tides in the world, over the length of the canal, would not be much of a flow gradient.)

      Actually there's a great way to catch any of them on that.
      Jesus often confronted the religious zealots of his day about their traditions. He bluntly said they were making the word of god *invalid* by their traditions. Flat earth is found nowhere in the Bible - its a tradition. Easter and Santa Claus are traditions. Burkas are found no where in the Koran. Martyrdom by suicide is flatly rejected by most Muslims as having no basis in the Koran. Most religious traditions have no basis, they are just stuff people started saying or doing.
      So for the Christian zealots who claim tradition throw things like Jesus own words back at them. Both Matthew (15) and Mark (7) recorded it.
      Just be careful the smart ones can twist it.

      You'd also be surprised how little they actually know of some very basic things.
      Classic example is the word "day" in Genesis which they all claim means 24hours. It never did. Its derived from an ancient Hebrew word that means "period of time." It never specifically meant 24hours. So they can't even get the first page right, but will yell and scream at others.

    Let me explain that to you, Sci man Dan: you see, when a ship goes over the Equator, Neptune ties it to a long rope, goes back to the bottom of the ocean and starts spinning it; that's how a ship achieves centrifugal equatorial thrust. Sadly, on quite a few occasions in the Bermuda triangle, the rope did not hold; the poor people on those boats all went into deep space, sometimes knocking planes on their way and pushing them along with them. Of course, there's a chance the dome broke their fall upwards, so they got squashed and then fell right back in the water, where they just sank.

      Scary! Some may have fallen straight into the Sun, with water still sticking to them; they could have gotten the thing extinguished, for Pete's sake! Still some probably went straight through the dome, and then the waters of the Heavens found their own level - level up there is concave, except if you're in Heaven and then it looks convex to you - and then they must have just kept going until they encountered one of those spherical things that have gravity, that God made when he was in the mood for ball donuts instead of pancakes, and finally got squashed.

    An instant before he said "look at the clouds", my exact thought was "well you just need to look at the clouds to realize that the Earth is not flat - or does he think clouds hang lower and eventually fall into the sea towards whatever he thinks the horizon is?"
    Edit: Holy shit, he actually mentions and confidently proceeds to ignore it. Wow.

    Wow - I don't (or didn't) think of myself as particularly intelligent - but I was at Primary school learning about Australia - as I thought about upside down people and it clicked that everyone was the right way up as gravity is towards the centre. I was TEN YEARS OLD!!!!! How can you get to adulthood and not get this!! 😳😳

    Bob’s production quality is really something. Seeing him in the reflection every time the screen goes dark is the funniest thing I’ve seen today
