Phillip Is Absolutely Baffled by the Men Who Believe the Earth Is Flat | This Morning

Gary Heather, Darren Nesbit and Martin Kenny are part of ‘The Flat Earthers’ who come from all ‘four corners’ of the globe even claiming that gravity is fake and The Moon Landing of 1969 was a hoax. So are their ideas ‘from another planet’ or have we all been conned by science?

I was also sceptical for the first 6 months. Just like him.
But when I turned 7 months old I understood.

‘Didn’t do the whole lake because it is massive’ mate what about the whole earth? Hahaha

[GAWYHAWA]

Heres the thing. They dont believe the Earth is flat. They believe they're smarter or more perceptive then the 99.9% they referred to. It's narcissism, not stupidity. The topic is irrelevant.

The irony is busting my ribs!

IF THE EARTH WAS FLAT CATS WOULD HAVE KNOCKED EVERYTHING OFF BY NOW

When I was 8 years old, I was confused about how the seasons worked. I thought the earth would need to wobble back and forth for them to work. My dad, who was a chemist, used an orange and rotated it at an angle around a lightbulb to show how a tilted Earth would have the North Pole facing away from the sun in the winter and towards the sun in the summer. He also demonstrated how, from our perspective, the sun would set at different latitudes throughout the year because the Earth is curved. Even at 8 years old, his demonstration made perfect sense to me. I wish someone would show flat earthers what my dad showed me and have them explain how it wouldn't work based on our observations of where the sun rises and sets throughout the year, and why the North Pole experiences 24-hour daylight in the summer and 24-hour darkness in the winter.

It's fascinating to watch three men not know what something is but know for certain what it's NOT.

Aeroplanes flying upside down. 😂😂😂😂😂 how do these grown men not understand basic physics.

The thing is, _why_ would people spend hundreds of billions of dollars to lie about the shape of the Earth? What do they gain from it? The amount of time, effort, coordination, cooperation, money, and resources it would take to keep up such a massive charade for so long would be downright impossible, and definitely impractical.

This bald guy claims that gravity is just an effect not a force, then proceeds to say that things accelerate to the ground...does he not get that any acceleration requires a force? Its really mind boggling

[tonya]

This what happens when your brain goes flat.

[Amager-dogx]

They should be allowed to call their guests morons

[seasonedbeefs]

The bro thinks people walk upside down on the southern hemisphere 😂😂

[Tall-Cool-Drink]

Do these flat earthers realize how enormous the earth is compared to humans?

[crustydownunder]

I can't watch this! I feel so embarrassed that these grown men can be so blindly ignorant.

[brianfreeman]

It's over 2, 200 years since a gentleman called Eratosthenes worked out the truth. TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED YEARS !!!

I think videos like these are very important and people should watch them. The general public has an erroneous view of what idiots look and sound like. They mostly look and sound like ordinary people with fully functioning cognitive abilities. They don't normally present themselves as over-the-top fools. Of course most of the things these three gentlemen are saying are absolutely bonkers and devoid of all rationality but not in the most stereotypical way.
