There can only be 2 reasons for his weird behavior, 1: he has taken some medication he shouldn't have taken, or 2: he didn't take some medication he should have taken.
Could certainly be one of these, and/or multiple, but (mostly tbf to others lol) it could also be something more... fundamental-- along the lines of plain ignorance/stupidity/going against 'the establishment'/etc.
Not really. Nobody forced him to try and correct other people. If he wants to try to correct other people when he can't even grasp basic things like what a moon cycle is, then it's on him and I have absolutely no problem laughing at him.
@@twizz420 me either... dude is HILARIOUS! I was talking about the little spelling error by "OP".... as if nobody has ever made an error like that before.
I like his stance on research. Nothing in a book could ever be accurate. However, everything he finds on the internet is %100 percent legit and true as displayed. Classic.
I don't know Dan. He brought alot of good points. He said "goo due reesurch" and also "hmmmm mmm mm dee dee diddle doo look at this!". I think you need to address these points. Otherwise my faith in science will be rocked to its core.
Not wanting to be mean but has anyone have any idea of what country the toothless pirate is from? First I thought a British dialect then German and now I haven't got a clue. Any guesses?
I was literally reading this as he was doing it and now I can't stop laughing 🤣🤣🤣🤣 You know I almost thought you were exaggerating when you wrote that as I started reading it, but no it's pretty much spot on. Timing is everything with comments like this I guess.
I can't help but wondering, whether some flerfers have been converted after watching his videos, and realising how dumb they are, after listening to his rambling
Oh my god, this guy is EXACTLY what I think of in my head when I hear the term "Flat Earther." Toothless, balding, living in an attic with Hello Kitty and Betty Boop kitsch.
This is 7th grade stuff. I know, I taught it. My students grasped that quite quickly. We did do an experiment with a globe, a lamp and a ball for the moon. Why is this so hard for some people?
As a Dutchie I am ashamed that this unemployed specimen makes us look bad. I mean, looks don't tell you everything, but goddamn does it tell you a lot.
@@Warrenm70 Thanks for that. As a Dutchmen myself, I am proud of Floor. Amongst other things the Dutch are famous for, like the Delta plan. But this guy need to take his meds. yes: MeDs, not MeTHs, because it look like he took to much of that already.
Took me all of ten seconds to search, "Why do we not have a lunar eclipse every full moon?" and got the answer that explains his observations. That level of research is too intense for some.
That’s your issue. You’re putting a logical question in the search bar. You have to type “conspiracy theory lunar eclipse SHOULD be every night cycle” to get the right answer, because clearly that’s what this guy did. That or he went to page 4 or 5 in the google search page, which is around where the crazy starts.
Hey now c'mon he's figured out how to press the shutter button and upload the image, his old mum is hopeful that soon he'll be able to tie his own shoe laces like a big boy soon.
How do they think it gets into the books in the first place? People doing their own research, and others doing research on their research to make sure it's up to snuff. It's simple!
No, you're doing the wrong research. You've been listening to all those thousands of experts and scientists with hundreds of years of experiments and scientific knowledge behind them. Instead you should be listening to this shouty crane driver. He knows how it all really works...
I remember a lunar eclipse at the same time Comet Hale Bopp was large in the sky. It was amazingly beautiful and eerie. What made it a bit more memorable was two guys came walking down the street and when we commented to them about how amazing it was, they didn't know what we were talking about till we told them to look up.
The lighter in his hand suggests to me that hitting the bong isn't helping his paranoid mental state either. (Yes a big assumption but i'm running with it, for reasons)
It makes it so difficult to choose who to trust. Dan with his fancy book learning or the toothless man rambling about research? What a strange little man and the toothless guy is even stranger. Kidding! I've been on this earth in the same city for 54 years. There has been a full moon at least once a month but I've only seen a total solar eclipse once (23/10/76 Melbourne). Haha! I've proved the toothless pirate wrong. Not that he'd believe me but c'est la vie 🙂
I feel bad for this man because he genuinely sounds needs help and instead went for the flerfs. The disjointed speech pattern really indicates something similar to a late learner in elementary school and as pointed out, his eyes are really tensing at weird points of time.
@@cl5470 then you say: It might be... Do you have evidence for that? No? So I disregard that claim, for every claim without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
That is how all their models and projections are. they need multiple ones just to explain anything that we can witness on earth. meanwhile with a singular globe we can demonstrate what we see on earth
"I don't understand how something works, therefore it's fake." -Every Flerfer ever. Also, at one point he said I didn't have to go outside to do my research, and then just a few minutes later, said that we should go outside. 😂
People regularly discredit flat earth nonsense because they bend their own truth around a narrative. These people are nuts and should not be believed. What they say makes no sense. With that being said, believing them when they say they have "proof" in the bible also doesn't make sense. Just like any other source they use, they twist the bible into their own narrative. I've been a Christian my entire life, I find science fascinating and as for the Bible, the earth is round. LOL All that just to say, please do not pick and chose when to believe flat earthers. They're always wrong, all the time, about everything.
@C L S The compilation that is the Bible has a dozen or so contributors. It's not intellectually honest to say "a goat herder" wrote the Bible. Furthermore, the Bible has never claimed to be a book of Science so your question is... silly.
Yesterday we got shown the first image of the black hole at the center of our galaxy, Sagittarius A*, a truly historic milestone in Astronomy and an amazing scientific achievement. Then today you present us with the polar opposite of that! Both events validate Albert Einstein! The former in regards to his General Theory Of Relativity, and the latter when he said “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
I'm a test engineer. I do safety and efficacy testing of medical devices. I've done this for 25 years along with design and development. Before that I worked in aerospace and semiconductor equipment. Testing and experimenting are my life's work. Whenever I hear a flat earther say "do your own research" I want to scream at the screen (and often do). To them, "research" means staring at a phenomenon and seeing whatever they expect to see through confirmation bias. Where, I want to ask them, is your test protocol, your negative control, your positive control? Has your protocol been peer reviewed before you start? Is it blinded? Double blinded? What data are you collecting? Using what instruments? Are they calibrated? Are the calibrations traceable? What statistical methods are you using to analyze your data? What limits are you putting on your results? This all takes time. Lots of time. I recently finished testing a batch of laparoscopes (the metal-tubed optics that attach to a camera and let doctors look and operate inside a patient without cutting them open). The tests took over six months, with all the reviews and controls. The report took some time to write and then nearly half a year to be reviewed for medical technique and statistical correctness. Yes, it's incredibly convoluted and time consuming, but it's why we have the safest and most effective medical tools in the world. I have to take my job very seriously. Peoples' lives are at stake. This hangs over me every day leading to considerable performance pressure, but it's also immensely satisfying knowing that everything that goes out the door is the best humanly possible. When I see human detritus like this talk about "research" I can only shake my head and wonder why our society continues to tolerate them. At least we get a funny Sci-Man Dan video out of it.
My dude, flers' head would explode before they finish reading your first paragraph ... They have no clue, that is why they are flers and they said things such as "oNcE tHe TrUfff CoMeS oUt, ScIeNtIsTs WuOlD cOmE tO uS" ... Think if them like children when they are playing "doctor" or "house" and such.
@@pm1660 - Thank you. I just re-read my post (done late last night in the heat of the moment) and, boy, does it sound pompous! I'm usually not that annoying :-)
I’m sorry Dan, I truly feel dumber listening to the grunts and other vocalizations of this flerfer. It was quite painful instead the typical ludicrous “claims” they typically make. Have a wonderful weekend!
Are you gonna be ok Scimandan? We all understand if you need to take some time for yourself after receiving such a logical and well thought out drubbing. Thoughts and prayers
@@pookispalaceoflove6518 I picked up on the "well thought out" bit of the comment... I think an amoeba has thought more than the guy making that response video... lol.
You forgot the /s bit at the end of your comment. Important in this case because without it some might think you really do believe that the ‘drubbing’ was actually logical and well thought out. I’m sure you wouldn’t want anyone thinking that you were that dopey.
After long consideration I chose that pendulum "experiment" as my all-time favorite. OMG! I mean the laser pointer and scanning the sun's temperature were darn good, but the idea that he expected that pendulum to start moving by itself is so funny and sad at the same time that it takes the top prize. Thanks for bringing this "collection" together Mr. Sensible.
This is where I have my reservations. Just like making fun of someone with a disability is wrong, should we be making fun of this clinically insane person?
I just love when they just misunderstand simple things like the difference between moon phases and a lunar eclipse and repeat it happily over and over because they think they really got you there :D
“Go do research instead of only reading.” Ima go get my money back from my grad school - my advisors made me read _hundreds_ of papers before I could even begin to design my study. To think that I could have just “done research.” Wow.
As a new Hollander it was something of a relief to see that the Dutch can produce nutters as well as eminent astronomers, navigators, philosophers, I could go on but hey ya got ta have a yang to your yin😃👍🇦🇺🏴☠️
@@alynch9846 Funny when in most cases debunking is targeting larger names like business startups, prominent people like Elon Musk, etc. We don't know the stability of the person, but we do know they believe in damaging claims that spread too easily when left unchecked. You shouldn't be ridiculed for at least trying to explain things.
Yeah they should get help. Dunno why some people assume that some people can change. Even outside of flat earth, many people have come around on dumb ideas
Hey Dan, the fact that in the southern hemisphere the moon and the stars are "upside down" compared to how we see it in the UK is proof positive that the earth is a sphere. No other shape can explain this and would never happen on a flat earth, where everyone would see the moon the same way up. Surprised this point doesn't come up more often in debunking flat earth content.
I've often thought it would be an interesting demonstration to have people at the same longitude in the northern and southern hemispheres simultaneously photograph the full moon while on a telephone conference call. Then share the photos. How to explain the apparent inversion on a flat earth model?
Not to mention the reversal of apparent rotation between stars in the far northern hemisphere and those in the far southern hemisphere. If you stand in the far north, facing north and look straight up, the stars will appear to rotate counterclockwise, rising to your right and setting to your left. If you do the same thing in the far south facing south, the stars will rise on your left and set on your right, clockwise. This would only be possible on the surface of a spheroid body. Don't get me wrong, though; the stars will still be rising in the east and setting in the west, but the "apparent rotation" will be reversed because your head will be pointing in the opposite direction. This proves quite conclusively that the Earth is a spheroid. 🤣
Oh I'm not sure it's just a case of them being treated as childish, moronic clowns. If it looks like duck and sounds like a duck it's a fair chance that what you have is a duck. I do wish these weirdos would duck off, from time time.
Lunar eclipse, crepuscular rays, even the shape of the Earth, all this confusion boils down to 2D thinking. Literally, it all becomes so much clearer when you consider these things in 3D space
most women have trouble thinking in 3d. have you ever had to move a piece of furniture to a spot your wife was convinced it will fit where you can see just by looking at it there is no way? when a man has that problem you get flat earthers.
Quite a few people are completely incapable of thinking in 3 dimensions. It's a weird mental block honestly, but it does help explain a lot of flat Earthers and their silliness.
I've realised flat earthers say "go do research" as a get out of jail free card. If you ask them a question they don't know the answer to they'll shout "go do your own research!". If you say something they don't agree with they'll shout "go do research!" Amazing
@@richardross1166 often times when a person does "meth" or fully know as Methamphetamine, it hasban effect of deterioration of the upper jaw line beneath the nose. Now I could be wrong and he skipped his dentures, but having the unfortunate experience of being raised by meth users, I do see it easily.
It's laughable that flerfs can't think in 3D. Also ironic to be told by a flerf to do research when they don't do research. Maybe if they did, there'd be fewer flerfs.
I mean, they do do _some_ research. It almost entirely consists of reading conspiracy sites and listening to other flerfs, but hey, it's _something_. :P
@@danielcrawford4141 Old sailors that does like what "shit"? I am an old sailor and I can assure that you will never meet a sailor that believe in the preposterous flat Earth drivel. So please explain Sir.
@@danielcrawford4141 I am old enough to have used Celestial Navigation, before we had GPS. Sailed with my first GPS aboard in 1988. I bloody well know for a fact that planet Earth is a rotating sphere.
As an ex submariner who straddled the creation of GPS before that we used time of rise satellites and radio pos. No seafarer would ever believe flat earth
You know what I always find fascinating is that a lot of flat earthers are religious and constantly hold up the Bible as proof and or evidence of flat earth without question. But a science text books nah. Never believe it. Huh make it make sense lol.
@@Bendigo1 I mean the bible technically leaves open the shape of the earth. A flat earth would also provide an issue for some parts of it. A flood would require a dome, otherwise the water would just go over the icewall and leave the planar earth. And the bible does also say that the sun sets behind the horizon, not that it vanishes into the dark. That is why young earth creationists to accept the earth is round because it fits better with the bible, they still think the earth is only 6000 years old, but it is a sphere at least.
@@rudolfquerstein6710 There are just too many metaphors taken literally and literal meanings taken metaphorically. The Bible is left too open to interpretation to be taken literally. I was raised Christian and still see value in what the Bible teaches, but figured out long ago that I will never take anything in it literally like too many people do. There are too many contradictions and vague meanings behind many writings. The main issue is that it was written by man, and man is flawed, and easily corrupted or manipulative. I think the Bible was written to try to get people to act a certain way and to try to explain the unexplained. I do believe there may have been some things that occurred that even science can not explain and that it is possible that what early civilization saw as Gods or angels could have been either from another planet with or more advanced people from this planet. Either that, or they had some REALLLLY good hallucinogenic "medication" since I can't say the 'd' word without the comment being blocked.
At best, the bible is chock full of stories, several of which contain compelling lessons on virtue and morality. Some of the lessons, on the other hand, are downright hateful, misogynistic, or racist. The bible is certainly not a science book (since absolutely nothing in it is falsifiable) and it's questionable whether it's even a moderately poor history book. Like most "news" these days, the bible has mildly good entertainment value; that's about it.
@@glennpearson9348 I just think too many people interpret it to fit their motives. Instead of taking it for what it is, a book of stories and life lessons. Some of the most evil people I have met claim to be devout Christians and follow the Bible to the letter. The letters seem to mean something different to them...
I actually have to give the guy some credit as those are amazingly high quality pictures for a flerf. Unfortunately, they're so good that they show crater profiles along the edge. If he took more pics weeks later he'd see crater shadows as well. If he thinks pics of the moon equal research, then how does he explain that?
@@drdave8607 I'm rather skeptical of that. I find it hard to believe someone so ignorant being able to capture clear photos/videos of a full moon. I've tried it myself with consumer level camera equipment and it's quite difficult, especially getting the exposure correct.
@@clementj With a tripod and a reasonable zoom/telephoto lens, a modern auto exposure digital camera should find it a piece of cake. I say "modern" and "digital" because the main issue is longish exposures and shake. Current digital cameras can choose a "film speed" (ISO - aka sensitivity of the photo sensor) many times that of ordinary film, and mean you can shoot fast enough to compensate for minor shake. Secondly, you want a zoom/telephoto strong enough to make the moon as much of the frame as possible, so that the whole image is on average as bright as possible, and the autofocus has enough image to set the focus right. And oh, by the way, the exposure setting to get the moon right is about exactly the same exposure setting you need in normal daylight on earth. So if all the settings on the camera are manual, set them the same level as you'd normally take pictures. You'll be within an f-stop or better. My camera is a Sony A6000 4/3 mirrorless digital with extremely fast autofocus, and the "full auto" mode will change ISO (it can go to 43,000), aperture and exposure suitable for the image. With an 800mm manual lens (or with doubler, 1600mm), I just open the lens up wide open, manually focus, and let the camera decide the ISO and exposure time. Takes great photos of the moon even hand-held.
Its so stupid, when they actually question the things we all can see every day, or in the case of a lunar eclipse every 2-3 years (I guess). Oh! At May 16th and November 8th will be the next lunar eclipses. Though watching from Europe, we might not quite see it.
Once again another flerf exposes himself as totally unable to think in 3D. The 5deg tilt seems to be ignored/lost/forgotten/just-to-damn-confusing for them to EVER understand as part of the eclipse cycle.
You can see the flerfer displaying the thing he loves the most: projection. Though I had more questions about the clothes iron altar with the Hello Kitty plushie and the Betty Boop stuff than whatever random BS the guy was saying.
@@DaedalusYoung One thing that I also question from the other video is... How can a guy that believes the earth is flat understand Fusion 360? They don't know how certain tridimensional shapes work.
You can represent a three-dimensional concept on a two-dimensional surface, but it still requires visualization in 3-D, and typically a more complex drawing. Or to paraphrase, "3-D is in the mind of the beholder". 🙂
He's convinced me with his sound and logical, coherent explanation, drawn from his single observation, that Lunar Eclipses don't occur. To me he has also proved that we have One Full Moon A Year.
here is a funny thing: I am interested (weirdly) in ground effect planes, and there are people, who try making them and have youtube-channels. this so far is totally okay. one youtuber made a vehicle and flew it out on open water, a few centimeters above the water level. and after a kilometer or two, his connection started to break. he lifted the plane to 20m height, and the connection was back again. dear flat earthers: explain, why the connection was breaking. we, normal persons, know the answer.
Nice! Great test! I’m a sailor and for the same reasons we calculate how far away the reach of our radio is to get in touch with other ships or ground stations before we can see them in full (hint, it depends how high your and their mast is ;)).
G'day SciManDan, Considering Flat Earthers can't Understand the Solar System in 3D it is no wonder they are totally Bamboozled & can't understand when a 3D Description is transposed to 2D Drawings for a Book. It is the same reason why they can't understand it is impossible to have a 2D photo 'showing the Whole 3D Earth', I seriously had to explain that is Impossible to Gleem because he kept repeating "Why isn't there a Photo of the Whole Globe Earth?"
If you get them to grasp the idea that a 3D object is only visible from one side at a time, they might ask you for a (non-composite) photo of one side of the Earth. When you show them one, they will invariably claim it's fake.
Just in case the Pirate King decides to descend from his throne and read this, there's gonna be a beautiful eclipse this Sunday that I plan on photographing. Maybe he could take his camera out then instead?
This dunce was all over the place!! "Go outside!" "You don't need to go outside!" "Don't trust what you read in a book!" "Do research and proof it to your self!" While trusting everything he reads in the Bibbley being unable to proof anything of it himself! What an eejit!
"Believe everything's that written in a book, boy." Given that this is the guy that seems to believe in the devil, that's quite ironic. I wonder how much of the bible he believes and what parts, if any, he's willing to ignore. Anyone else getting Trevor Phillips vibes off that guy? Like if Trevor was born on the other side of the pond.
Yes, I noticed that. Most flat earthers quite literally believe everything that is written in a book and think it beats all observations and experiments.
Absolutely. He is the prime example of what you think of when thinking of a conspiracy theorist. All he is missing is a tinfoil hat. He looks like a meth addicted alcoholic and feels genuinely mentally ill and acts like it too. And honestly, looks dont tell everything, but looks can tell you some things. And his looks tell me "has a non 0% chance of being highly unstable and dangerous".
I found myself leaning back from my monitor because this guy's extreme close ups had me feeling like he was invading my personal space. Keep hitting them for 6 Dan!
I made the mistake of starting the video in full-screen. I didn't lean back. I jumped back and stifled a scream. For a fraction of a second, I thought he was crawling out of my computer!
It sounded more like my two year old grandson when he’s telling a story. Any word he doesn’t know yet he’ll fill in with a kind of hum. This poor deluded, most likely mentally ill, sod doesn’t speak English very well and fills in the unknown words either with Dutch words pronounced in an English fashion or random noises.
I do love the fact that the pictures of the moon he “took” shows the moons face rotating due to to ……….can anyone guess the answer …. The earth’s rotation something theses flearthers says is Impossible but here we have a clearly mentally troubled person actually providing proof the earth is a globe
I had a break down from work pressure and had to spend a couple of weeks in the mental ward of a local hospital. And none of the people I meet there were as crazy as this guy. He comes across as the sort of guy who should at no time be allowed anywhere near sharp objects.
Seeing the two diagrams together (phases + eclipses) actually helped me today. I knew a lunar eclipse only happened during full moon, but I never really understood why, which is funny since I've read multiple books on astronomy. I love the subject. Just now, it finally clicked. Thanks, Dan!
“Don’t believe everything you read from a book”- Flat Earther. “Why do you believe the earth is flat?” -normal person “the Bible says…” - same flat earther 🤣
@@albertafarmer8638 just look at the waves of the ocean. There you see a lot of bent water. On a globe is nothing upside down. Down is the direction to the middle of the earth. So nothing is upside down. Look at your spirit level, there you see bent water too. Ok back to the video. Here in south of Germany we had a total eclipse of the moon this early in the morning. At 3:32am the moon entered the shadow of the earth. At 5:25am the moon was completely in the shadow. It looked great. Do a research, there are thousand of pictures online from this morning.
Getting into any sort of argument with that cookie would be a difficult challenge….. the glowing red eyes and the atmospheric bong smoke circling around him was truly a magical spectacle… I truly believe he got his valid point across with ease… a true wordsmith of our time. I go now do research 🧐
I can't understand how these people fail to understand. The heliocentric model explains literally *everything* we see. Everything. Not one geocentric/Flat Earth model achieves this (when they even *have* a model).
Most of them are religious fundamentalists who are believing against all the evidence because they believe the heliocentric model is an illusion of the devil. So logic and observation have nothing to do with it.
They don't understand because they are stuck in the mind of a toddler who is throwing a tantrum. I'm absolutely convinced it's a mental problem, like a continuous psychotic break or something. If they'd get help, as in therapy and medication, they might have no problem understanding basic physical laws.
I love how SciManDan makes it seem like finally someone showed him a thing or two during the intros of his vids but at the end he happily hands their asses back to them in a handbasket! 😂
6:13 The fact that someone hast to explain this picture to someone just shows what the mental capacities of flat earthers are. I wonder if it's even worth it to lower yourself onto their level.
The biggest problem I have with flat earthers is not even the fact that they believe that the earth is flat. Everybody can believe something that is objectively wrong, but if you're intellectually honest you'll realize your mistakes. The arrogance of flat earthers is what really makes me angry. They think that they got it all figured out and refuse to listen to reason, even if everything they believe to be true is demonstrably wrong.
This isn't unique to flat earth it infects many aspects of life to day and terrifyingly includes the political sphere as well. Reality denial seems commonplace today. Perhaps it has something to do with an entire generation who got medals for taking part, being told there's no wrong answer, constantly told how good they are regardless of reality
Most flat earthers shouldn't be thinking or deciding things where whether the earth is flat or sphere or a saddle should make any difference. Nor should they travel or reach (through internet) that far either.
@@dumnor since they reject science, they should not be allowed to use anything that is based on the science they reject, which of course would put them into the stoneage. keep banging those rocks together, flattards!

@@Tommyr you pretty much nailed it with a short, pithy comment.
They always tell us to do our own research. But when we go and do that and come to the conclusion that it's a globe, they're still not happy.
How do they think it gets into the books in the first place? People doing their own research, and others doing research on their research to make sure it's up to snuff. It's simple!
No, you're doing the wrong research. You've been listening to all those thousands of experts and scientists with hundreds of years of experiments and scientific knowledge behind them. Instead you should be listening to this shouty crane driver. He knows how it all really works...
They should do some chemisty "research" and experiments. Maybe not, could be fatal for others and themself. :(
I remember a lunar eclipse at the same time Comet Hale Bopp was large in the sky. It was amazingly beautiful and eerie.

I'm a test engineer. I do safety and efficacy testing of medical devices. I've done this for 25 years along with design and development. Before that I worked in aerospace and semiconductor equipment. Testing and experimenting are my life's work. Whenever I hear a flat earther say "do your own research" I want to scream at the screen (and often do). To them, "research" means staring at a phenomenon and seeing whatever they expect to see through confirmation bias. Where, I want to ask them, is your test protocol, your negative control, your positive control? Has your protocol been peer reviewed before you start? Is it blinded? Double blinded? What data are you collecting? Using what instruments? Are they calibrated? Are the calibrations traceable? What statistical methods are you using to analyze your data? What limits are you putting on your results?
This all takes time. Lots of time. I recently finished testing a batch of laparoscopes (the metal-tubed optics that attach to a camera and let doctors look and operate inside a patient without cutting them open). The tests took over six months, with all the reviews and controls. The report took some time to write and then nearly half a year to be reviewed for medical technique and statistical correctness. Yes, it's incredibly convoluted and time consuming, but it's why we have the safest and most effective medical tools in the world.
I have to take my job very seriously. Peoples' lives are at stake. This hangs over me every day leading to considerable performance pressure, but it's also immensely satisfying knowing that everything that goes out the door is the best humanly possible. When I see human detritus like this talk about "research" I can only shake my head and wonder why our society continues to tolerate them. At least we get a funny Sci-Man Dan video out of it.

Hey Dan, the fact that in the southern hemisphere the moon and the stars are "upside down" compared to how we see it in the UK is proof positive that the earth is a sphere. No other shape can explain this and would never happen on a flat earth, where everyone would see the moon the same way up. Surprised this point doesn't come up more often in debunking flat earth content.
I've often thought it would be an interesting demonstration to have people at the same longitude in the northern and southern hemispheres simultaneously photograph the full moon while on a telephone conference call. Then share the photos. How to explain the apparent inversion on a flat earth model?
@@jacksonmacd Good one!
Not to mention the reversal of apparent rotation between stars in the far northern hemisphere and those in the far southern hemisphere.
If you stand in the far north, facing north and look straight up, the stars will appear to rotate counterclockwise, rising to your right and setting to your left. If you do the same thing in the far south facing south, the stars will rise on your left and set on your right, clockwise. This would only be possible on the surface of a spheroid body.
Don't get me wrong, though; the stars will still be rising in the east and setting in the west, but the "apparent rotation" will be reversed because your head will be pointing in the opposite direction. This proves quite conclusively that the Earth is a spheroid. 🤣

@@Bendigo1 I mean the bible technically leaves open the shape of the earth. A flat earth would also provide an issue for some parts of it.

And the bible does also say that the sun sets behind the horizon, not that it vanishes into the dark. That is why young earth creationists to accept the earth is round because it fits better with the bible, they still think the earth is only 6000 years old, but it is a sphere at least.
@@rudolfquerstein6710 There are just too many metaphors taken literally and literal meanings taken metaphorically. The Bible is left too open to interpretation to be taken literally. I was raised Christian and still see value in what the Bible teaches, but figured out long ago that I will never take anything in it literally like too many people do. There are too many contradictions and vague meanings behind many writings.
The main issue is that it was written by man, and man is flawed, and easily corrupted or manipulative. I think the Bible was written to try to get people to act a certain way and to try to explain the unexplained. I do believe there may have been some things that occurred that even science can not explain and that it is possible that what early civilization saw as Gods or angels could have been either from another planet with or more advanced people from this planet. Either that, or they had some REALLLLY good hallucinogenic "medication" since I can't say the 'd' word without the comment being blocked.
At best, the bible is chock full of stories, several of which contain compelling lessons on virtue and morality. Some of the lessons, on the other hand, are downright hateful, misogynistic, or racist. The bible is certainly not a science book (since absolutely nothing in it is falsifiable) and it's questionable whether it's even a moderately poor history book. Like most "news" these days, the bible has mildly good entertainment value; that's about it.
@@glennpearson9348 I just think too many people interpret it to fit their motives. Instead of taking it for what it is, a book of stories and life lessons.

The man takes pictures of the moon, calls it research, and claims hes debunked the globe. Absolutely priceless!
I actually have to give the guy some credit as those are amazingly high quality pictures for a flerf. Unfortunately, they're so good that they show crater profiles along the edge. If he took more pics weeks later he'd see crater shadows as well. If he thinks pics of the moon equal research, then how does he explain that?
@@drdave8607 I'm rather skeptical of that. I find it hard to believe someone so ignorant being able to capture clear photos/videos of a full moon. I've tried it myself with consumer level camera equipment and it's quite difficult, especially getting the exposure correct.
@@drdave8607 I thought the same thing about his photos. I have some excellent moon photos on my channel under the community tab.
@@clementj With a tripod and a reasonable zoom/telephoto lens, a modern auto exposure digital camera should find it a piece of cake.
I say "modern" and "digital" because the main issue is longish exposures and shake. Current digital cameras can choose a "film speed" (ISO - aka sensitivity of the photo sensor) many times that of ordinary film, and mean you can shoot fast enough to compensate for minor shake.
Secondly, you want a zoom/telephoto strong enough to make the moon as much of the frame as possible, so that the whole image is on average as bright as possible, and the autofocus has enough image to set the focus right.
And oh, by the way, the exposure setting to get the moon right is about exactly the same exposure setting you need in normal daylight on earth. So if all the settings on the camera are manual, set them the same level as you'd normally take pictures. You'll be within an f-stop or better.
My camera is a Sony A6000 4/3 mirrorless digital with extremely fast autofocus, and the "full auto" mode will change ISO (it can go to 43,000), aperture and exposure suitable for the image.
With an 800mm manual lens (or with doubler, 1600mm), I just open the lens up wide open, manually focus, and let the camera decide the ISO and exposure time. Takes great photos of the moon even hand-held.
@@clementj with my phone I can take better pictures than that? I have a 100x zoom on my phone
Its so stupid, when they actually question the things we all can see every day, or in the case of a lunar eclipse every 2-3 years (I guess).
Oh! At May 16th and November 8th will be the next lunar eclipses. Though watching from Europe, we might not quite see it.
Once again another flerf exposes himself as totally unable to think in 3D. The 5deg tilt seems to be ignored/lost/forgotten/just-to-damn-confusing for them to EVER understand as part of the eclipse cycle.
"Do your research, don't believe everything you read in a book! Also, the Bible is 100% true because the Bible says it's true."

Ah, I see where he made his mistake:
Picture, 2D. Reality, 3D.
It is a very difficult concept, especially for flat earthers.
You can see the flerfer displaying the thing he loves the most: projection. Though I had more questions about the clothes iron altar with the Hello Kitty plushie and the Betty Boop stuff than whatever random BS the guy was saying.
To be honest, that background aspect of the video made more sense than anything he said.
That's the problem with projection, it makes a 3D Earth-Moon system look flat on a 2D surface and the 5° tilt become invisible.

Considering Flat Earthers can't Understand the Solar System in 3D it is no wonder they are totally Bamboozled & can't understand when a 3D Description is transposed to 2D Drawings for a Book.

If you get them to grasp the idea that a 3D object is only visible from one side at a time, they might ask you for a (non-composite) photo of one side of the Earth. When you show them one, they will invariably claim it's fake.

No no, he has a point. He hummed a song so he has convinced me. Scifi Dan lost.
It sounded more like my two year old grandson when he’s telling a story. Any word he doesn’t know yet he’ll fill in with a kind of hum.
This poor deluded, most likely mentally ill, sod doesn’t speak English very well and fills in the unknown words either with Dutch words pronounced in an English fashion or random noises.
insert "kronk meme he's got a point"
I am defeated! I could not name that tune 😞
Man, The Joker is way more terrifying without his makeup.... who knew 🤷♂️
I do love the fact that the pictures of the moon he “took” shows the moons face rotating due to to ……….can anyone guess the answer …. The earth’s rotation something theses flearthers says is Impossible but here we have a clearly mentally troubled person actually providing proof the earth is a globe
@You're Gonna Hate This Thanks, Boob!
No its the hologram of the moon that gets rotated in the program, duh.
I'm joking if it wasn't obvious. xD
I had a break down from work pressure and had to spend a couple of weeks in the mental ward of a local hospital. And none of the people I meet there were as crazy as this guy. He comes across as the sort of guy who should at no time be allowed anywhere near sharp objects.
or children
The funny thing about this is the only way to understand wtf this guy is talking about is by having ScimanDan explain it!! 🤣🤣🤣
The fact that SciManDan put this entire UA-cam channel together to hide the fact that penguins and koala bears are CGI is hilarious! 🤣
I hope you're being fastetious friend
@@joshuaobryan4896 think about it, what bird walks around wearing a Tuxedo? 🤷♂️
Lets' not get started on the Platypus as well.
@@kevinbrooks9074 You should know birds aren't real, anyone can dress a drone in a tuxedo.
Btw penguins do have knees
I'm positive I've met this guy in Skyrim, just outside Whiterun, trying to sell skooma to everyone.
"If you have coin, Maiq has wares."
Toothless guy with Betty Boop and Hello kitty collections are my go to for Scientific research.
A guy who hasn’t the ability to manage a toothbrush, sits in his bedsit dismissing all the work of eminent scientists and astronomers.
Ahh come on. We’re supposed to be better than this. There are many ways one can lose teeth. That’s like saying he can’t manage a hairbrush.
Another great way to lose your teeth is smoking a shit load of crack.
Lol 😂
Would you look at that, my dog licked my face and woke me up
Now here I am watching a SciManDan video at 2:33 am
Keep up the good work, man
Your dog knew that Dan uploaded. Good doggo :)

Thanks Dan ,for showing me a new member of the muppet show 😉😉
Seeing the two diagrams together (phases + eclipses) actually helped me today. I knew a lunar eclipse only happened during full moon, but I never really understood why, which is funny since I've read multiple books on astronomy. I love the subject. Just now, it finally clicked. Thanks, Dan!
“Don’t believe everything you read from a book”- Flat Earther. “Why do you believe the earth is flat?” -normal person “the Bible says…” - same flat earther 🤣
Please show us a well illustrated model of the globe with real bent water, rocks, sand, upside down buildings, cars et cetera. Greetings from Canada
@@albertafarmer8638 just look at the waves of the ocean. There you see a lot of bent water. On a globe is nothing upside down. Down is the direction to the middle of the earth. So nothing is upside down. Look at your spirit level, there you see bent water too. Ok back to the video. Here in south of Germany we had a total eclipse of the moon this early in the morning. At 3:32am the moon entered the shadow of the earth. At 5:25am the moon was completely in the shadow. It looked great. Do a research, there are thousand of pictures online from this morning.
@@madmikesch2453 I still want to see a working model of the globe.
@@albertafarmer8638 buy a fucking globe, then.
@@albertafarmer8638 No, you don't. You want to feel special and proselytize.
Getting into any sort of argument with that cookie would be a difficult challenge….. the glowing red eyes and the atmospheric bong smoke circling around him was truly a magical spectacle… I truly believe he got his valid point across with ease… a true wordsmith of our time.
I go now do research 🧐
"Go do research!" bellows the drunk that has no idea what research is.
Research is, of course, searching again for the beer bottle you misplaced when you set it down.
"Research" to them means: Watch other UA-cam videos that confirms your world view.
@@40g33k I like my version better =p
Flat earthers normally only ever show pictures of the full moon, because their "model" can't explain the moon for 90%+ of the rest of the time.
Their "model" can't even explain why we only see one face of the moon.
@@JohnSmith-ux3tt can't even explain why there is a moon
Me and my family watched a Lunar Eclipse last night here in Utah. It was beautiful.
I can't understand how these people fail to understand. The heliocentric model explains literally *everything* we see. Everything. Not one geocentric/Flat Earth model achieves this (when they even *have* a model).
the earth wasnt even flat on the geocentric model
Actually NeoTychonian model contain less epicycles than Kepler Copernicus model , Kepler got his data from Tycho's observation anyways
Most of them are religious fundamentalists who are believing against all the evidence because they believe the heliocentric model is an illusion of the devil. So logic and observation have nothing to do with it.
They don't understand because they are stuck in the mind of a toddler who is throwing a tantrum. I'm absolutely convinced it's a mental problem, like a continuous psychotic break or something. If they'd get help, as in therapy and medication, they might have no problem understanding basic physical laws.
I loved everything Professor Dave Explains had to say about that in his "Globebusters debunked" video. I watch that video quite often, it´s so great!
I love how SciManDan makes it seem like finally someone showed him a thing or two during the intros of his vids but at the end he happily hands their asses back to them in a handbasket! 😂
He knows a lot about the baity stuff 😂
Dan is classier than that, he hands them their asses back to them on a silver platter...
Where did you get those emojis?
6:13 The fact that someone hast to explain this picture to someone just shows what the mental capacities of flat earthers are. I wonder if it's even worth it to lower yourself onto their level.
He is ungumfortably close to the camera.
Ain’t that the ‘tooth’? 😁
So that's where every wierdo from a bus station in the 90's went.
XDXDXD appears that way yes. 😂
Going to be a great example of a Lunar eclipse in North America Sunday night.
The biggest problem I have with flat earthers is not even the fact that they believe that the earth is flat. Everybody can believe something that is objectively wrong, but if you're intellectually honest you'll realize your mistakes.
The arrogance of flat earthers is what really makes me angry. They think that they got it all figured out and refuse to listen to reason, even if everything they believe to be true is demonstrably wrong.
This isn't unique to flat earth it infects many aspects of life to day and terrifyingly includes the political sphere as well. Reality denial seems commonplace today. Perhaps it has something to do with an entire generation who got medals for taking part, being told there's no wrong answer, constantly told how good they are regardless of reality
Most flat earthers shouldn't be thinking or deciding things where whether the earth is flat or sphere or a saddle should make any difference. Nor should they travel or reach (through internet) that far either.
@@dumnor since they reject science, they should not be allowed to use anything that is based on the science they reject, which of course would put them into the stoneage. keep banging those rocks together, flattards!
