Is The Earth Flat? (thought experiment)

Why can't it be flat?



I've recently watched some videos about a theory that the earth isn't round and is indeed really flat..

WHAT THE FUCK

The flat-earthers I've been listening to believe the earth is as the picture is above. The north pole is a nice bit of land and ice in the middle, and the south pole is a ring of ice all around the earth keeping the water in.

Gravity doesn't exist, and the world is actually moving upwards which gives us the illusion of weight.

The sun is actually only a thing about 32 miles wide and some thousand of miles up high and circles round the planet.

Daskew have you gone mad?

No I haven't because I don't believe this, but someone HELP ME KNOW FOR SURE THIS IS CRAP PLEASE!

Also makes for a whacky and interesting discussion

People please give me your disproofs of this crazy theory!...

 

According to your logic, moon rotates around earth together with sun.
But when you look on stuff, then sun is seen being not around sun
= by the shits we got with help of rocket theory we approved the earth is circle.
(And btw, when you watch on it from moon, it rotates :C)

 

the most obvious sign of bs is that all the continents are connected lol(except aussland)

 

no they arent anymore than a normal map

 

Well, there are 2 types of maps IRL.
The maps, which try to keep the form right(as circle is turned into the noncircle), and maps, which try to keep the size of land right.
And those maps differ= the earth is something different from the map

 

I don't know what they think about the moon so I'm not sure.

Whats the rocket theory exactly?

Also they claim the NASA footage is faked. Hahah.

 

lel?
Rocket theory is theory about building up rockets, launching rockets, make em circle around earth(and they circle in cricle, and this circle is bigger version of the earth circle, = earth made from circles), and landing of rockets.

Well, send urself in space :C
Then u will see the earth rotate, and u will see its correct form

Did I won?

 

Wait are you telling me North America is attached to the North pole that is attached to Europe?

 

Punk, the amount of ice in the north pole is meant to vary and I think sometimes is it not possible to get to it over ice? I dunno.

Barsuk - If I jump into the air, why don't I land somewhere down the road or w/e if the earth is spinning very fast?

 

A'ight :D
Tis gotta be wallpostcone
When you are on the Earth, you spin together with it at insane speed of 32000KM/hour.
We do not spot this tho, as we'r born in this spinning, and everything around is spinning.
After we jump off the land. we keep the same speed, and as we got 0 resistance(as ever the air is moving together with us at same speed), we get same speed + punny boost from the jumping, which is semt to us as we'r on smth nonrotating.
Same shit about throwing and so on

Fuck everyone who tries to fuck my mind about Earth rotating and being a circle, Im fine at science and same shit

--- Double Post Merged, Nov 14, 2015 ---

Actually, @PUNK123 , everything is connected

Spoiler

As earth at all is a circle of the earth, and got some water ontop of it, everything is connected to each other and forms the planet Earth. Just we see the only parts which are high enough to be not flooded, and we called those the North America and same shit, so basically telling Europe is not connected to USA is uncorrect from the point of the geoology ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

If earth wouldn've being spinning, then there would have been no change of day and night, and in result the Earth would be halfed on 2 half-circles, one will be endless hotness burning everything, other would be cold nightmare

How can they say this effect is real? But at the same time if I jump up, I don't go flying in one direction?

 

As for the pretentious post that everything is connected under the ocean, I meant the continents i know all about tectonic plates, ocean ridges etc and if you zoom out enough everything is connected in 1 way or another.

 

Well if the Earth was flat, you would just fall off the edge at a certain point. But since it is circular you can just travel around and 'round.

 

Actually, when you jump off the earth, you keep the earth speed, so right, you keep on travelling on flying on around 32000KM/h speed for few seconds.

 

Its like a treadmill

 

earth is like earth, but treadmill

 

lol this is such a weird thread I've started heheh

 

thread is like a weird shit, but thread

 

you got dat right m8

Anyway let's end this debate now, it's clearly a stupid theory lol

 

I won.
HA
