Respect 😊❤ Bob may have been on the other team, but he at least told some truth. In all ways, he will be missed. My best friend died from the c19 just over a year ago... She was my best friend because she always challenged me, made me think with her perspective, and cherished her for making me improve and think from other views. Bob had his views, and was seemingly nice about it... RIP mate. ❤
Yeah despite his belief, he was still a husband and father (I believe) and probably a good friend to many. Just because he was lost in one relatively small aspect of life doesn’t justify legit hate or anything towards the guy. Plenty of disagreements and attempts to teach, but in the end that doesn’t truly define him. RIP Bob
"They're all CGI images" As an undergraduate, I took hundreds of images of a variety of nebulae using a 36 inch reflector for a final year project. Those images were taken on glass photographic plates (this was long before CCD technology) and those are still in the university archive. Prints were made and were widely available. I still have most of them. Two questions for Santos: 1) How do you use digital CGI technology on an analogue photographic plate?, and 2) How do you do it 20 years before CGI was invented? £10000 for a plausible reply.
I'm taking images with my telescopes every clear night (I have a home observatory). Though I use CCD and CMOS sensors now, they're still photographs. And there's no CGI involved. I'm happy to invite anyone, even flerfers, to come spend a night imaging with me. They can look at the raw images and see for themselves...no CGI. :)
One of my Lab Instructors in college designed and build a tracking system for his Telescope for long exposure photos, he showed us some of his photographs, AMAZING.
They will just say you are a part of the conspiracy or something, and being paid to make this claims. There is a chance you were not aware of this, please report to your closest Illuminati headquarter ;)
I always love how they use Google for answers that indirectly back their claims, but then disregard the answer they get if they ask the shape of Earth.
My favorite "gotcha" for the flat earthers I've encountered is... if "THEY" control everything, then surely "THEY" control Google, don't they? So if you search for something on Google and you like the answer it gives you... well, how do you know _for sure_ that that answer has not been manipulated by "THEM"? After all, if "THEY" are lying to everyone using mainstream stuff like Google, how do you know any of the info "THEY" give us is or isn't a lie?? 9 times out of 10 I'll get absolute silence because flat earthers and other conspiracy theorists don't know how to process the idea that the info they accept as truth may actually be a lie. But hey, I'm only just playing by the rules of the world thar flat Earthers and other conspiracy nuts have built up, lol 😂😂
Yes, obviously (to a flat earther) they are sneaking into your house while you sleep, swapping your pictures with CGI's, all for the purpose of trying to fool everyone the earth is round. They are being paid a lot of money by god knows who to fool the world. First, I laughed at the idea... then I cried when I found out intelligent humans actually believed the Earth is flat. I'm certain ET Life exists, and they are avoiding contact with Humans, for much the same reason we avoid contact with insects.
The smirk on Santos's face when he thinks he's figured something out is PRICELESS 😅 he is literally saying the dumbest sh%* and smirking like he's a genius or something 😂
The stars not getting closer thing just kills me 😂 It's like saying "I'm not aging because no matter how much time passes, my grandma is always older than me." smh
I am not aging, yesterday was only one night sleep away, just like it was years ago... And when I go to sleep again, I will open my eyes tomorrow, also like it was years ago. You see, things do not change a bit .......
@@erikblaas5826 Technically, no one will ever actually see tomorrow; The very instant that tomorrow arrives it becomes today. It doesn't matter how many days you live, you will still never see tomorrow. The speed at which time passes is related to how fast you're moving through space; Unless you leave Earth & move at a different speed, you are stuck at moving through time at 60 seconds per minute. Just as the "goalpost of time" is always in motion, so are the "landmarks of space" also moving.
LOL, I remember as a kid saying to my dad, "When I get older than you..." He then proceeded to explain why that will NEVER happen. I was crushed, BUT, no doubt, it's one of the reasons I never fell for the flat earth hoax. I guess he didn't have a dad to speak the harsh truth to him. LOL
I never ceases to amaze that people as ignorant as Santos are willing to expose their ignorance for the world to laugh at. They really do have no self awareness.
@@Slicerwizardyeah, tbf with the cost of living crisis I've been looking for an insane/ reactionary grift to sign up too. I reckon I could make plenty of wonga selling lies to rubes... My difficulty is finding one which doesn't hurt my soul too much to espouse. Edited for spelling
Remember he is like Christian apologists, he is not trying to convert anyone to his way of thinking, but rather to boost the beliefs of those who already support him. He may appear to be talking to unbelievers, but he is really talking to his followers.
He's back in August, doing lectures in Melbourne at townhalls around the south eastern suburbs! What is worse... is that most of his events have already sold out their tickets! show's the IQ of people living in Dandenong etc.
@@roberts5539 - To be fair, you also have to be pretty monumentally stupid to let yourself be “led astray” by information that defies all logic, reason, and common sense and the belief of which is predicated on the delusion that there has been a global conspiracy going on for hundreds of years involving hundreds of thousand of people (pilots, etc.) who have all somehow managed to keep this secret for their entire lives. Also the people who led him astray are not “lying” since they truly believe what they are saying. Saying something that you believe to be true is not lying. By the way, flat earthers do not believe what they believe because they have been led astray or lied to but rather they have a psychological makeup which compels them to need to belief incredible things which are in direct conflict with what is accepted scientific fact. If they did not have the flat earth thing they would latch onto some other crackpot belief - such as being a holocaust denier. It’s a problem of irrationality and not one of a lack of intellect. In fact some of these people even have reasonably high IQ’s but even very intelligent people will say and do stupid things when they are highly irrational. Of course the people wasting their time arguing against these types have issues of their own. After all, an intelligent and fully rational person is not going to feel the need to enter into a debate with someone who insist that the tooth fairy is real. When someone says something that clearly ridiculous you just humor him and then go about your business. You don’t argue the point.
TEN Rules of flerfing : 1) Strawman the globe model in a desperate bid to manufacture a "gotcha". 2) NEVER, under any circumstances, talk about your positive claim that the earth is FLAT. 3) If pushed to do the above, pretend that you "claim nothing". 4) Learn to articulate the sounds “nu” and “huh” together in quick succession and use it whenever you need to deny reality (i.e, often). 5) Pre-emptively reject the answers to every question you ask. 6) Cherry pick parts of quotes that you think might help you, whilst pretending the rest never happened. 7) Perform a ‘flerf reset’ every morning, conveniently forgetting everything that was said to you the previous day. 8) Ignore the fact that, despite more than 10 years of social media flerfing, flat earth has advanced about as far as an asthmatic Ant with particularly heavy shopping. 9) Lie. 10) Lie more.
"In kindergarten you learn the earth spins at 1350mph at the equator." What kindergarten teaches that?! Clearly he hasn't been to kindergarten yet no wonder he's confused. 🤣
Clearly you missed the first day of Kindergarten, midwest. The spin of the Earth was the first lesson, just before how to become a drag queen and how to vote liberal.
One of the things I learned in kindergarten was how to count to 100. If someone had told me the Earth was spinning at 1,350 mph I would have had no idea what they meant. Such a large number would be beyond my grasp, I would not have known how long a mile was, and I would be vague about the length of an hour. I probably would have understood the Earth was a spinning ball, but (like flat Earthers) I would have asked why we don't fall off it, since I wouldn't have known anything about gravity.
Things I learned today: 1. The Mayans and the Egyptians lived 500,000 years ago, before the emergence of modern homo sapiens, therefore, aliens confirmed, and 2. Santos can't fathom the concept of more than one object moving at the same time. Do you think he also has trouble with simultaneously walking AND chewing gum?
Santos may say that _'Gum = g + u + m, - m = GM, so General Motors has genetically engineered gum to be difficult to chew thus making it impossible to walk while chewing it.'_ Or something.
Wait more than one thing can’t move at a time! This is great! Now I can call is “stuck” and not go to work. Sorry boss there are other cars out today so I cannot drive. Because as we all know, only one thing can move at a time.
Men like Santos are extremely helpful to me. His confidence-to-the-point-of-condescension about verifiably false ideas is such a great reminder that those most willing to make bold assertions about reality - while shaming anyone who disagrees - have long had an incredible influence on human history...and that the scientific method (and normalizing healthy, curious skepticism about others' assertions) is our only chance to know what's true. Thank you for your always-clarifying arrogance, Santos. (And thanks, Dan!)
@@trevormillar1576 Ahahah.... Great ATuin' is floating through empty space in an maybe infinite universe - so this would be much more realistic than what the nowaday flatearther thinks .... if u ask, what is "under the earth", they call you an idiot, but never gave an answer.
I think that sentiment is contributing to why this just won’t go away. In addition to the people getting suckered into believing flat earth, there is a sizeable population of people that love having their intelligence validated by watching someone this stupid.
@@rollingthunder4599 I am a chemical engineer, so i trust these researchers that found out the earth is a sphere. The same way these researchers trust me when I do research at my CO2-recovery-plant at my work.
The density of interstellar gas clouds is several orders of magnitude closer to a vacuum than anything humans have achieved on Earth. Except for inside this man's head, of course.
Any thing going fast enough to rate the mach scale is a big deal in Earth's atmosphere. So using that scale out side our atmosphere still seems like a big deal.
"Let's have a look at what a vacuum is. Says here the Hoover Dust Machine has a sucking power of 1.2. Well outside the force of what any material can withstand."
Santos, like most conspiracy followers, is astoundingly arrogant. They believe that the first idea to wander into their heads is absolutely correct. If it clashes with what everyone else thinks then it is everyone else who is wrong. Santos being wrong is unimaginable.
it pretty much goes to all flat earthers though. Ever interacted with any of them? Can you ever imagine Nathan Thompson saying he's wrong about anything? Seems to be a ego issue they all share where these guys can never be wrong about anything.
@@mattheweagles5123 Yeah it's like a religion. I can kinda understand questioning stuff and having a belief but it's the confidence they're 100% right about whatever the thing they're saying that has surprised me over the last few years.
lazor gyroscope detection a 15 degree drift, oh that cant be right let's put another one in a cylinder 15 degree drift..oh let's pretend we didn't see it..priceless.
A little fun trivia about the sun and Earth's rotation: If you hold out your arm at full length, and bend your hand palm facing you so that your fingers are flush together and parallel with the horizon (or perpendicular to direction of gravity, as it were), each finger marks about 15 minutes of travel for the sun across the sky. So, 4 fingers is an hour, and as you count fingers stacked from horizon to the sun, you can estimate remaining daylight pretty dang well. It's a very, very, very old life hack. I learned it when taking a land navigation course, and it's pretty spot-on. Due to human anatomy/geometry, it doesn't matter much how long your arms are, or the size of your hands, as long as you are reasonably proportionate, the angles scale with each person. I figure I'd share something related to the rotation of the Earth that isn't a bunch of Flat Earth non-sense. Enjoy!
Rest in peace, and a final farewell and thanks, Bob. Though we may have had very different ideas of our place in the world, I can respect someone who was certainly a friend to many, and who certainly wanted to understand his own relationship with the world better. Respect to you, Dan, for never forgetting that you are disagreeing with people at the end of the day.
It would be SO fun to put this guy in an engineering department somewhere - make him design functional machinery, or airplanes, or just about anything.
@@sonystar1727the implication is that he would quickly realize just about every piece of modern technology and infrastructure takes into account the fact the earth is round in its design
My undertanding of math and physics is horrendous. My grades in school were very poor. Yet, I am capable of understanding how things actually work and can see the flaws in everything flat earth related. How hard can it be, when someone like me can understand it? Also, RIP Bob. May your meme never vanish.
This clearly shows that only dxmb and retxrted people can believe this stupid stuff. You and Dan and all his followers are the reason we have this clown world right now, full of braindead people that are full indoctrinated to believe every nonsense and bs. Yall cant even use ur logic or reasoning. Clown World
Einstein didn t have that great grades either,he was maybe just below average in university.He often needed help from better mathematicians like Minkowski.I seem to remember that Max Planck helped him with calculation concerning Mercury s orbital precession(is this correct wording?)which Einstein used as proof for his theory of relativity,as one of them.I am like you,I only had highest grades in all subjects but not maths.My slightly autistic mind made naive mistakes like one that still hurts.In 9th grade maths test I did 5+8=14 and got an 8 instead 9 grade.In Finland we have 4-10 grades.My average was 9.8 mostly due an 8 in maths and only a 9 in German.
props to you dan, It really goes to show that you still care and think of flat earthers as human and not just a bunch of idiots like other debunkers ive seen out there. This is why I love this channel, the smallest gesture of no longer using a clip because of someone's passing shows how much you care. Even if I was a flat earther and didnt like you very much, that type of gesture would honestly raise my respect for you and i hope others see it that way too. You aren't here to insult or degrade anyone and that can't be proven more than by what you just did. Keep being amazing. To Bob, The clip of you saying " A 15 degree per hour drift" is forever burned into my memory and is my own way to remember you by. May you rest in peace
But he does think they're a bunch of idiots. He mocks them every video. He used the insult "tiny, 2D brain" in this very upload. What have you been watching?
I feel sorry for the guy's family but not for the guy himself. I'm sorry but the last thing the world needs right now is more stupid people going around spreading their stupidity.
Surely one of the greatest thinkers in the history of the flat earth community. There has been nobody with such a developed brain since the Ancient Egyptians almost 500,000 years ago
My Grandson who is nearly 3 years old is now quite the chatterer, and although he does jumble words together and uses the wrong words on occasion, he still makes more sense than Santosser.
Santos' production process: 1) Avoid learning at any cost 2) Wait for a vague idea to pop into the void between his ears 3) Put brain on pause, _immediately_ start recording 4) Pick random phrases that he doesn't understand from articles he hasn't read 5) Confidently redefine reality
@@jellslixcy6168 Oh no he doesn't. Not enough to buy even a packet of jelly beans and certainly not enough for a laser gyroscope. On that topic ... inSANeTOSser should get one of those, given its recent results.
I always tel FLERFs that pull out linear velocities to watch the hour hand on a 24-hour clock and advise if they think it’s massively fast or immensely slow. I never get a response.
As a math teacher….I think I know what Santos was like in school. “When will we ever need this?” “Why does any of this matter?” And so, they stop learning, get behind, and apparently, Santos never did quite catch up despite deciding to try to do “science”, but mostly doing it to be anti-authority, because he’s too lost to understand things and thinks he’s being lied to. Sad really, I mean…he wants to know, but everything he does is tainted by his need to reject the established science as mind control or something he feels is sinister, like….religion.🙄
You're saying quite essential things there mate. I remember when I went to school I had this exact "conflict" with myself but even though I thought "well, gotta learn something" and while maturing I got the idea of not just "learning" stuff but getting behind it. I think there is a big difference and that 'abstract' difference is, what flat earthers or "sceptics" often criticize. They often talk about "textbook education" and play down education in general while claiming to "get behind things" yet unfortunately for them the "getting behind" part is substantially dependant on "learning" things in the first place. I often told FAs that being principled isn't a bad thing but if they criticize the principles of others they should acknowledge their own and stop pressing double standards because that is exactly what they themselves don't want to be treated like. Usually when I participate in a debate about things like flat earth I compare this to "making mistakes and learning from them", because it is the exact same process. You can't disprove the basics if you can't get behind it so it's quite necessary to at least understand the basic concept. With that said I don't categorize flat earthers in such a debate principally, I try to get behind their understanding of the world. To be on even grounds I ofc expect them to do the same, otherwise the dialogue is a big waste of time for both parties. Most discussions I had regarding this topic were pretty civil while I always tried to get behind their intentions and - well - sometimes forced myself into the mind of someone with a different perception. Most of these people have abstract and irrational fears, some just feel some sort of disconnection, some have feelings of disgust towards science and many of those might have different reasons - wether they are personal, ideological or based on experience. Why do I explain that? I brought some very interesting perspectives into the lives of others just by being respectful, trying to share their scepticism and trying to even the grounds we're standing on when it comes to that discussion and ultimately I had some of those people acknowledging a globe earth as the only "naturally possible" shape of the earth. I do agree with them that there might be numerous things we as "mere mortals" are not 'obligated' to know but this shouldn't be the reason we stop learning and getting behind things - including the perspective of others - as absurd and clueless it might seem.
Nah, don't be sad. What we see here is just self-imposed intellectual immaturity. No one forced him to be what he is nowadays. This is no reason for sadness, instead it is well deserved!;)
except the reality is 20 years after leaving school, i have forgotten nearly everything i learned in math because i've never needed to use it, the math i learned in grade school gets used all the time, but all that high school stuff should of been optional, even if i did need to use some high school level math on a rare occasion, i whip out my phones calculator a device nearly every human has on them at all times

So just forget Bob ever existed? Ok if people don't use it then Bob is lost forever. Imo that's more sad. It's not like its an insult it's just thanks Bob
He is protected by the human society as a whole, I mean all around the world in our history, many people fought hard for the human survival and progress, which guarantees that even this kind of obtuse human can survive.
Natural selection for humans started failing once we started living in cities and eventually invented things like antibiotics, germ theory, moder medical science, etc. It ensures that even goobers like this guy can survive and pass on their genes. But it also ensures geniuses like Stephen Hawking survive and grace us with their wisdom.
Lower secondary school physics. As a science teacher it was important to have these concepts clarified. Thanks Santos. Bob, although straying on the wrong side of science, always struck me as a nice guy and a good man. RIP Bob.
You don't even need a powerful telescope to see the nebulas that Santos claims are CGI. A 300 - 400 dollar quality amateur telescope is all you need. Yes they will not look as spectacular as images made with giant professional telescopes (for obvious reasons), but you can take great images yourself these days if you learn astrophotography. And if Santos doesnt trust digital cameras he can use regular analogue film cameras too avoid any possible NASA skullduggery.
I got to look through a powerful telescope last year, at a national park. We could see the milky way, craters on the moon, even the blurry glows of other galaxies. But they must have had some supercomputer hidden in the telescope, capable of rendering all that out in real time.
Good on you for respecting Bob, honestly. Despite the disagreements and all, he was a friend and family member to many. Outside of the flat earth stuff he probably was a fine guy. RIP to him and prayers tk his family
But you can't divorce him from the flat earth. He deliberately pushed this rubbish onto poorly educated and mentally unwell people and he did that for attention and/or money. That makes him a scumbag in my book, and his death doesn't change my opinion of him one iota.
As Einstein once said: 'Two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity... and I'm not sure about the universe.' Does Santos have kids? If so they must be so proud of their dad's genius. Some people seriously make you wonder how the human race has managed to survive this long. It's a good job ignorance and utter stupidity are not hereditary... that said, perhaps they are?
Seriously, why do these people pretend to understand maths and science when they regularly demonstrate they understand neither? Why don't they submit papers for peer review if they are so confident in their workings out on a white board?!
Sorry, @SciManDan, I really have to disagree with you! You CAN have a perfect vacuum! I own one! I've had my Henry for about 15 years and it still picks up all the dirt on my carpet... that sounds pretty perfect to me! (RIP Bob!)
That old man cannot realize that the entire mass of the solar system combined is not enough for fill a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of 1 % from the total space occupied by the solar system. If there is one molecule of gas in a container the volume of the molecule is negligible compared to that of the container and we can assume it’s a vacuum, apply the same concept for space
Man, this Santos guy is brilliant. He can count and speak words, sometimes even big words. And he can point at things. And he has a laptop too. What more could you want? This guy is a keeper ladies.
It's not the ladies who shoud be nervous dude, lol. Talking to flat Earthers is like being in prison, don' t bend down, because they're always looking for Uranus, lmao.
RIP Bob, unlike many of your followers you attempted to walk the walk and gave us many a smile along the way. Much respect for Dan for memorialising you this way. We have our memories of the clip and you'll never leave us but this way we can respect the you as a man who shared our time on earth and was willing to experiment to prove his ideas.
Wow, I can't believe I'm so sad about Bob's paasing, not only did I really enjoy the recurring joke, it had tranacended the original joke, and had become its own thing... But more importantly, I'm sad that he died in either ignorance, or before he could stop lying to people if he wasn't really a flat Earther
He reminds me of Rand Paul, a member of Congress in the USA. Rand Paul tried to get approved as an eye doctor but could NOT pass the tests. So Rand Paul went and started his own "agency" to accredit people and claim them to be a "doctor" and passed himself.
I completely understand that there are people in the world with this level of intelligence. I don't understand why they choose to broadcast this to the rest of the world, and I'm flabbergasted that they choose to call other people stupid when said people attempt to educate them.
I don't think these people are stupid in the sense of a cognitive impairment; maybe even the opposite - most of flat earthers seems to be quite intelligent. But they seem to be jealous of people who are in positions of intellectual authority that their desire to tear them down is much stronger than their desire for knowing the truth and that made educating them impossible. When they engage in an argument I feel it's never really about trying to prove their theories or disproof the scientific theory - it's really about proving that the scientists are evil, that they're willingly and knowingly lying to you; or that they're controlled by a bigger force.
Your sarcasm is hilariously misplaced. Flat Earthers don't REALLY believe what they say. They are basically harmless trolls who enjoy "debating" the outlandish theory. SUCKED IN! DUH! LOL
Because the internet gives them a voice they've never had. Stupid people used to have to stand on street corners and risk real physical harm to spout such nonsense. Now-days there is no such threat. Yet.
The thing that always gets me is why people think scientists would put this much effort into “tricking” the world into thinking the earth is round and all the other random conspiracy theories. Like “yes. We’re spending billions of dollars to trick you into thinking we live on a sphere that’s traveling through space.” What would there be to gain from that?
He's 60 years old, yet his mind is like he's 12 years old who believes he has come across a major revelation and needs to share this new found knowledge that he's sure no one has ever thought of.
Full Respect to you Dan for retiring the 15phd, I never knew he had passed away, out with all the flat earth stuff may he may rest in peace, Thanks Bob 🙏🏻💜
THe funniest part of this video was when Santos says "Orbiting our central sun" and I just thought to myself "I have never heard of that in my life." and then it cuts to Dan just saying "never heard of that" and I cracked up.
Mental health services are massively underfunded. I feel sorry for this guy that he'll never be able to appreciate the sheer beauty, perfect symmetry & logic of the universe he lives in. It must be like living in a blacked out & sound-proofed tent at Glastonbury.
My question to these people is always, "Why?" Some conspiracy theories are believable because someone, somewhere stands to gain by perpetuating the conspiracy. Who would, and how would they, gain by faking a spherical earth as opposed to a flat one?
I love how Santos uses Mach (The ratio of the speed of a moving body to the speed of sound) to discuss the speed of objects travelling through the vacuum of space. It is an utterly meaningless concept. If you alter the composition of the medium that sound is radiating through, its speed (and thus its ratio - the Mach number) will also change. For example, sound will travel through nickel about one and a half times faster than it would through brass, and as the speed of sound traveling through the vacuum of space is zero, so too is its Mach number.
Also when the medium is traveling along with you Mach is relative to that medium. Otherwise nobody on the Concord would have been able to talk to anyone sitting in front of them ...
I think Mach numbers technically only apply when the medium is a fluid, but, yeah...using a Mach number to describe the Earth's rotation and/or its velocity through the solar system / galaxy / universe is completely nonsensical.
I spent some time in a calibration lab checking the calibration of aircraft machmeters. We did it with the meter mounted in a vacuum chamber with an external tube supplying simulated pitot probe air pressure. We sucked air out of the vacuum chamber following a chart that gave standard air pressure at various heights. At each specified height we set the pitot pressure to various values to simulate speed through the air at that altitude. It sounds quite complicated but is pretty routine. The reason for doing this was that the speed of sound in the atmosphere changes (slows) with increasing altitude so a standard air speed indicator does not have mach numbers on its dial. If you look at published maximum speeds for aircraft that can exceed the speed of sound it usually includes the fact that the quoted mach numbers are at sea level. Go high enough in the atmosphere and walking pace would be greater than mach 1 (can't think how you would prove this for real though).
The mach numbers he's using aren't meant to actually make sense, it's just a "look at the big numbers!" tactic. His followers don't know what "mach" means (come to think of it, maybe he doesn't, either).
Honestly, I think it scares them too much to think of how small we are and how vast everything else is. It just shuts their brains down, and they latch onto this stuff because it's reassuring. We're safely tucked under a dome and no "space junk" is ever coming to get us.
Yep, in Australian kindergartens as much as parents might like to think their kids are learning quantum physics. it's pretty much finger painting and nap time.
Nap time is really meditation and reflection on what they learned and the finger paints help them with their organic chemistry formulas since their hand dexterity has not developed yet.
This guy has a real preoccupation with “Mach” and the speed of sound, even though sound can’t travel in space. I guess saying 0.0021 times the speed of light wouldn’t have the same dramatic impact
I was driving on the m1 at 3am a while back. There was just me and a car around 100 yards infront of me, they stayed that distance for well over 20 minutes. Turns out they were going the same direction and speed as myself. The whole time I didn't even feel like I was moving (despite doing the speed limit). I can only imagine how confusing this would be to people like Santos.
I honestly feel so bad for this man. Think about his age, his life, the way his mind works. He has achieved nothing. He has actively gone backwards intellectually and brought others with him. That is his life's greatest achievement. He will pass on soon and have given less than nothing back to society and his legacy will be one of failure and humiliation on the internet. That's genuinely sad to me.
actually he has given a valuable gift to society... ever hear of the phrase " dont be an asshole or dont be an idiot"? he has contributed to the world.... "Dont be a Santos"
I often think that too, especially for people who have gone far down the hole. What it must be like to live in a world where you think that stuff is real. What a terrible and wasted life.
He doesn't. Ex-con and serial tax dodger and fine avoider...fled to Mexico and hides out trying to start a woo-woo cult from the gullible fools that pay him $500 to hear one of his seminars.
It's also why in that video with Conspiracy Toonz called 'Santos Bonacci unmasked' he goes full ape swearing and shouting his head off for 10+ minutes...it's worth a watch. He knows full well that when he gets exposed like he does for his nonsense that it hurts his bottom line. He sells seminars to push his woo-woo to gullible idiots and the more people find out about him the chance he loses out on potential marks increases. The guy's a grifter and has been for nearly 20 years...he's also never been smart...in 2015 he was arrested and jailed for, what the papers described as being an 'on the run serial fine dodger'...but that wasn't all. For seven weeks he sent harassing, abusive and threatening letters to the judge. Not most intelligent move ever...and he clearly hasn't got any smarter. He's also now hiding out in Mexico trying to start up a woo-woo cult, probably for easier drug access and/or on the run from the Aussie taxman again.
All of the questions these people have are answered in great detail in the literature, but they just can’t be bothered to look it up and instead remain wishfully ignorant.
The Earth has always been spinning around a pink unicorn. The particles and stars around us are simply dust and glitter flossing from its long silky tale.
RIP Bob. Santos is such a well taught man - basics of elementary school knowledge are just one googling away. Tell the Dinos that "comets in space are just CGI"
In a way, I agree. Does the availability of information and having all this complexity at the tip of your fingers simply overwhelm some people, so they start looking for simpler truths that they can understand and reject all that knowledge that already exists?
It's so adorable when flat earthers apply human-scale to galactic concepts. It's like a preschooler trying to wrap their head around negative numbers.
None of them seem to be able to understand scale in any form.
The difference is that eventually the preschooler figures it out (tho they might not still be a preschooler by the time they do)
And never remotely attempt to validate if they even have a sense of the real scale

I respect your decision to retire the "15 degrees per hour," quote, Dan. Very gentlemanly of you. RIP Bob.
Even in my head, I say to "a 15 degree per hour drift": Thanks Bob, Rest In Peace.
Respect 😊❤ Bob may have been on the other team, but he at least told some truth. In all ways, he will be missed.
My best friend died from the c19 just over a year ago... She was my best friend because she always challenged me, made me think with her perspective, and cherished her for making me improve and think from other views.
Bob had his views, and was seemingly nice about it... RIP mate. ❤
Very nice of you guys
But imagine if he said “Rest in Peace Bob” as the line instead. Would keep it funny and more tasteful ha.
Yeah despite his belief, he was still a husband and father (I believe) and probably a good friend to many. Just because he was lost in one relatively small aspect of life doesn’t justify legit hate or anything towards the guy. Plenty of disagreements and attempts to teach, but in the end that doesn’t truly define him.
RIP Bob
"They're all CGI images"
As an undergraduate, I took hundreds of images of a variety of nebulae using a 36 inch reflector for a final year project. Those images were taken on glass photographic plates (this was long before CCD technology) and those are still in the university archive. Prints were made and were widely available. I still have most of them.
Two questions for Santos:
1) How do you use digital CGI technology on an analogue photographic plate?, and
2) How do you do it 20 years before CGI was invented?
£10000 for a plausible reply.
Oh but they've been hiding CGI tech from us for ages too /s
This right here is a golden comment that shuts down these trolls for good. If only they had any shame!
I'm taking images with my telescopes every clear night (I have a home observatory). Though I use CCD and CMOS sensors now, they're still photographs. And there's no CGI involved. I'm happy to invite anyone, even flerfers, to come spend a night imaging with me. They can look at the raw images and see for themselves...no CGI. :)
One of my Lab Instructors in college designed and build a tracking system for his Telescope for long exposure photos, he showed us some of his photographs, AMAZING.
They will just say you are a part of the conspiracy or something, and being paid to make this claims. There is a chance you were not aware of this, please report to your closest Illuminati headquarter ;)
You have to hand it to Santos. He makes DITRH look well-informed, which is an astonishing achievement.

My favorite "gotcha" for the flat earthers I've encountered is... if "THEY" control everything, then surely "THEY" control Google, don't they? So if you search for something on Google and you like the answer it gives you... well, how do you know _for sure_ that that answer has not been manipulated by "THEM"? After all, if "THEY" are lying to everyone using mainstream stuff like Google, how do you know any of the info "THEY" give us is or isn't a lie??

Yes, obviously (to a flat earther) they are sneaking into your house while you sleep, swapping your pictures with CGI's, all for the purpose of trying to fool everyone the earth is round. They are being paid a lot of money by god knows who to fool the world. First, I laughed at the idea... then I cried when I found out intelligent humans actually believed the Earth is flat. I'm certain ET Life exists, and they are avoiding contact with Humans, for much the same reason we avoid contact with insects.

Also the people who led him astray are not “lying” since they truly believe what they are saying. Saying something that you believe to be true is not lying. By the way, flat earthers do not believe what they believe because they have been led astray or lied to but rather they have a psychological makeup which compels them to need to belief incredible things which are in direct conflict with what is accepted scientific fact. If they did not have the flat earth thing they would latch onto some other crackpot belief - such as being a holocaust denier. It’s a problem of irrationality and not one of a lack of intellect. In fact some of these people even have reasonably high IQ’s but even very intelligent people will say and do stupid things when they are highly irrational. Of course the people wasting their time arguing against these types have issues of their own. After all, an intelligent and fully rational person is not going to feel the need to enter into a debate with someone who insist that the tooth fairy is real. When someone says something that clearly ridiculous you just humor him and then go about your business. You don’t argue the point.

TEN Rules of flerfing :
1) Strawman the globe model in a desperate bid to manufacture a "gotcha".
2) NEVER, under any circumstances, talk about your positive claim that the earth is FLAT.
3) If pushed to do the above, pretend that you "claim nothing".
4) Learn to articulate the sounds “nu” and “huh” together in quick succession and use it whenever you need to deny reality (i.e, often).
5) Pre-emptively reject the answers to every question you ask.
6) Cherry pick parts of quotes that you think might help you, whilst pretending the rest never happened.
7) Perform a ‘flerf reset’ every morning, conveniently forgetting everything that was said to you the previous day.
8) Ignore the fact that, despite more than 10 years of social media flerfing, flat earth has advanced about as far as an asthmatic Ant with particularly heavy shopping.
9) Lie.
10) Lie more.
You forget: If your globetard opponent can produce real evidence - use insults and derogatives to prove him wrong.
I've seen this one in the last video
Aren't you being a little hard on him😂😂😂😂
Gotta lie to flerf!

"In kindergarten you learn the earth spins at 1350mph at the equator."
What kindergarten teaches that?! Clearly he hasn't been to kindergarten yet no wonder he's confused. 🤣
It's not even the right speed.
probably never been to school either, got homeschooled by christian-extremists
Clearly you missed the first day of Kindergarten, midwest. The spin of the Earth was the first lesson, just before how to become a drag queen and how to vote liberal.
Kindergarten teaches in kilometers if at all. Most of the world does, but there is this little village up in the north of France...
One of the things I learned in kindergarten was how to count to 100. If someone had told me the Earth was spinning at 1,350 mph I would have had no idea what they meant. Such a large number would be beyond my grasp, I would not have known how long a mile was, and I would be vague about the length of an hour. I probably would have understood the Earth was a spinning ball, but (like flat Earthers) I would have asked why we don't fall off it, since I wouldn't have known anything about gravity.
Things I learned today: 1. The Mayans and the Egyptians lived 500,000 years ago, before the emergence of modern homo sapiens, therefore, aliens confirmed, and 2. Santos can't fathom the concept of more than one object moving at the same time. Do you think he also has trouble with simultaneously walking AND chewing gum?
Santos may say that _'Gum = g + u + m, - m = GM, so General Motors has genetically engineered gum to be difficult to chew thus making it impossible to walk while chewing it.'_
Or something.
For sure.
SAVAGE. And I love it!
I'm convinced he also doesn't think water is water if there's other things in it, like fish. :P
Wait more than one thing can’t move at a time! This is great! Now I can call is “stuck” and not go to work. Sorry boss there are other cars out today so I cannot drive. Because as we all know, only one thing can move at a time.
Men like Santos are extremely helpful to me. His confidence-to-the-point-of-condescension about verifiably false ideas is such a great reminder that those most willing to make bold assertions about reality - while shaming anyone who disagrees - have long had an incredible influence on human history...and that the scientific method (and normalizing healthy, curious skepticism about others' assertions) is our only chance to know what's true.

A little fun trivia about the sun and Earth's rotation: If you hold out your arm at full length, and bend your hand palm facing you so that your fingers are flush together and parallel with the horizon (or perpendicular to direction of gravity, as it were), each finger marks about 15 minutes of travel for the sun across the sky.
So, 4 fingers is an hour, and as you count fingers stacked from horizon to the sun, you can estimate remaining daylight pretty dang well. It's a very, very, very old life hack. I learned it when taking a land navigation course, and it's pretty spot-on. Due to human anatomy/geometry, it doesn't matter much how long your arms are, or the size of your hands, as long as you are reasonably proportionate, the angles scale with each person.

As a math teacher….I think I know what Santos was like in school. “When will we ever need this?” “Why does any of this matter?” And so, they stop learning, get behind, and apparently, Santos never did quite catch up despite deciding to try to do “science”, but mostly doing it to be anti-authority, because he’s too lost to understand things and thinks he’s being lied to. Sad really, I mean…he wants to know, but everything he does is tainted by his need to reject the established science as mind control or something he feels is sinister, like….religion.🙄
You're saying quite essential things there mate.
I remember when I went to school I had this exact "conflict" with myself but even though I thought "well, gotta learn something" and while maturing I got the idea of not just "learning" stuff but getting behind it. I think there is a big difference and that 'abstract' difference is, what flat earthers or "sceptics" often criticize. They often talk about "textbook education" and play down education in general while claiming to "get behind things" yet unfortunately for them the "getting behind" part is substantially dependant on "learning" things in the first place.
I often told FAs that being principled isn't a bad thing but if they criticize the principles of others they should acknowledge their own and stop pressing double standards because that is exactly what they themselves don't want to be treated like.
Usually when I participate in a debate about things like flat earth I compare this to "making mistakes and learning from them", because it is the exact same process. You can't disprove the basics if you can't get behind it so it's quite necessary to at least understand the basic concept. With that said I don't categorize flat earthers in such a debate principally, I try to get behind their understanding of the world. To be on even grounds I ofc expect them to do the same, otherwise the dialogue is a big waste of time for both parties.
Most discussions I had regarding this topic were pretty civil while I always tried to get behind their intentions and - well - sometimes forced myself into the mind of someone with a different perception. Most of these people have abstract and irrational fears, some just feel some sort of disconnection, some have feelings of disgust towards science and many of those might have different reasons - wether they are personal, ideological or based on experience.
Why do I explain that?
I brought some very interesting perspectives into the lives of others just by being respectful, trying to share their scepticism and trying to even the grounds we're standing on when it comes to that discussion and ultimately I had some of those people acknowledging a globe earth as the only "naturally possible" shape of the earth. I do agree with them that there might be numerous things we as "mere mortals" are not 'obligated' to know but this shouldn't be the reason we stop learning and getting behind things - including the perspective of others - as absurd and clueless it might seem.
Nah, don't be sad.
What we see here is just self-imposed intellectual immaturity. No one forced him to be what he is nowadays.
This is no reason for sadness, instead it is well deserved!;)
except the reality is 20 years after leaving school, i have forgotten nearly everything i learned in math because i've never needed to use it, the math i learned in grade school gets used all the time, but all that high school stuff should of been optional, even if i did need to use some high school level math on a rare occasion, i whip out my phones calculator a device nearly every human has on them at all times
@@mikekilkelly2138but this is not true for everyone! School gives you the tools to do as much as possible in the future! Some works requires advanced math and others not, but it's better to have learnt and forgot, that never learned something!
I see your point. I never met a person like that, but Santos seems to fit my idea of such a person.
I've been a member of your channel for almost 37 months but have been subscribed for longer than that and I've used the 15º per hour emoji more than a few times. I respect your decision to retire it and I too, out of respect for Bob will stop using the emoji. RIP Bob. Thanks Dan.
So just forget Bob ever existed? Ok if people don't use it then Bob is lost forever.
Imo that's more sad. It's not like its an insult it's just thanks Bob
@@thermalrain_yt9725I agree.
Why wouldn't acknowledging that Bob showed experimental observation of rotation... be considered respectful?! 😕
It is a wonder this guy managed to survive for that long... It makes me question the natural selection thing.
Natural selection grinds slowly, but it does 🙂
He is protected by the human society as a whole, I mean all around the world in our history, many people fought hard for the human survival and progress, which guarantees that even this kind of obtuse human can survive.
We're not subject to nature in the same way we used to be so natural selection has no effect on us. Sadly.
Natural selection for humans started failing once we started living in cities and eventually invented things like antibiotics, germ theory, moder medical science, etc.
It ensures that even goobers like this guy can survive and pass on their genes. But it also ensures geniuses like Stephen Hawking survive and grace us with their wisdom.
It’s more baffling that someone thought he was intelligent enough to pay a wage to (presuming he’s held a job his entire life)!
Lower secondary school physics. As a science teacher it was important to have these concepts clarified. Thanks Santos. Bob, although straying on the wrong side of science, always struck me as a nice guy and a good man. RIP Bob.
And of course he just had to make the classic CGI claim... But wait, we didn't have CGI when powerful telescopes were invented.
The NASA and CIA had the technology anyway in the 70's I guess 😂. Because yeah.. those are the only companies that do anything like this 🙈
That's just they want you to think. The Egyptians invented it 380,000 years ago.
@@CD_Character Dang it! That is way before us humans were even a thing, guess they have that covered as well then.
You don't even need a powerful telescope to see the nebulas that Santos claims are CGI. A 300 - 400 dollar quality amateur telescope is all you need. Yes they will not look as spectacular as images made with giant professional telescopes (for obvious reasons), but you can take great images yourself these days if you learn astrophotography. And if Santos doesnt trust digital cameras he can use regular analogue film cameras too avoid any possible NASA skullduggery.
I got to look through a powerful telescope last year, at a national park. We could see the milky way, craters on the moon, even the blurry glows of other galaxies. But they must have had some supercomputer hidden in the telescope, capable of rendering all that out in real time.
Good on you for respecting Bob, honestly. Despite the disagreements and all, he was a friend and family member to many. Outside of the flat earth stuff he probably was a fine guy.
RIP to him and prayers tk his family
Well said. Rest easy, Bob.
But you can't divorce him from the flat earth. He deliberately pushed this rubbish onto poorly educated and mentally unwell people and he did that for attention and/or money. That makes him a scumbag in my book, and his death doesn't change my opinion of him one iota.
As Einstein once said: 'Two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity... and I'm not sure about the universe.'
Does Santos have kids? If so they must be so proud of their dad's genius. Some people seriously make you wonder how the human race has managed to survive this long. It's a good job ignorance and utter stupidity are not hereditary... that said, perhaps they are?
Seriously, why do these people pretend to understand maths and science when they regularly demonstrate they understand neither? Why don't they submit papers for peer review if they are so confident in their workings out on a white board?!
Dunning-Kruger effect.
Awesome job, Dan. And by the way... Thanks Bob. You Will always be remembered for proving earth's rotation 😊
No no no, the instrument he used was biased, paid actor by NASA 😂😂
Sorry, @SciManDan, I really have to disagree with you! You CAN have a perfect vacuum! I own one!
I've had my Henry for about 15 years and it still picks up all the dirt on my carpet... that sounds pretty perfect to me!
(RIP Bob!)
When Santos first mentioned vacuum and turned to the computer, I thought he was going to pull up a Hoover.
That old man cannot realize that the entire mass of the solar system combined is not enough for fill a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of 1 % from the total space occupied by the solar system. If there is one molecule of gas in a container the volume of the molecule is negligible compared to that of the container and we can assume it’s a vacuum, apply the same concept for space
Man, this Santos guy is brilliant. He can count and speak words, sometimes even big words. And he can point at things. And he has a laptop too. What more could you want? This guy is a keeper ladies.
And not only does he count, but he also uses big numbers to go along with those big words. Don't forget that!
To Quote Qui-Gon Jinn: “The ability to speak does not make you intelligent. Now get out of here.”
@@DavidSmith-zc8tklol
It's not the ladies who shoud be nervous dude, lol. Talking to flat Earthers is like being in prison, don' t bend down, because they're always looking for Uranus, lmao.
"This guy is a keeper ladies." Oh please no, we don't need more of his kind! Haha
I like how the dude has all the birthmonth constellations memorized but can barely squeak out a number let alone a coherant thought.
He reads his horoscope every day.
Remove glasses for optimum effect “A space devoid…..of matter”. Place glasses back on face.
I was really skeptical at first, but then he broke out the reading glasses and I was convinced
I thought they were just there for show at first to make himself look smarter 😂
RIP Bob, unlike many of your followers you attempted to walk the walk and gave us many a smile along the way. Much respect for Dan for memorialising you this way. We have our memories of the clip and you'll never leave us but this way we can respect the you as a man who shared our time on earth and was willing to experiment to prove his ideas.
Unfortunately, Bob Knodel was happy to blatantly lie.
@grahvis It was good entertainment tho...
At the very least, he is one of the flat earth classics.
Wow, I can't believe I'm so sad about Bob's paasing, not only did I really enjoy the recurring joke, it had tranacended the original joke, and had become its own thing... But more importantly, I'm sad that he died in either ignorance, or before he could stop lying to people if he wasn't really a flat Earther
The way he describes his presumed evidence is similar to 9th grade students who didn't prepare for their presentation.
Of Mice & Men was a great book about mice and men...
He reminds me of Rand Paul, a member of Congress in the USA. Rand Paul tried to get approved as an eye doctor but could NOT pass the tests. So Rand Paul went and started his own "agency" to accredit people and claim them to be a "doctor" and passed himself.
Oh man, the knowledge of mankind at his fingertips (Google) but no idea how to use it ... flat earthers .😩
To be honest I really was hoping his explanation for vacuum would involve 'a device used to extract dirt from surfaces under suction'
Something like that? ua-cam.com/video/EWQAvMUUJr4/v-deo.html
the hoover hypothesis?
That's just a fear conspiracy by Henry.
Was waiting for that
Me too! 😂
Santos did proof something. He demonstrated Einstein was right, human stupidity is infinite.
I completely understand that there are people in the world with this level of intelligence. I don't understand why they choose to broadcast this to the rest of the world, and I'm flabbergasted that they choose to call other people stupid when said people attempt to educate them.
I don't think these people are stupid in the sense of a cognitive impairment; maybe even the opposite - most of flat earthers seems to be quite intelligent. But they seem to be jealous of people who are in positions of intellectual authority that their desire to tear them down is much stronger than their desire for knowing the truth and that made educating them impossible.
When they engage in an argument I feel it's never really about trying to prove their theories or disproof the scientific theory - it's really about proving that the scientists are evil, that they're willingly and knowingly lying to you; or that they're controlled by a bigger force.
Dunning-Kruger effect
Stupid people aren’t smart enough to know they’re stupid lol.
Your sarcasm is hilariously misplaced. Flat Earthers don't REALLY believe what they say. They are basically harmless trolls who enjoy "debating" the outlandish theory. SUCKED IN! DUH! LOL
Because the internet gives them a voice they've never had.
Stupid people used to have to stand on street corners and
risk real physical harm to spout such nonsense.
Now-days there is no such threat. Yet.
The thing that always gets me is why people think scientists would put this much effort into “tricking” the world into thinking the earth is round and all the other random conspiracy theories. Like “yes. We’re spending billions of dollars to trick you into thinking we live on a sphere that’s traveling through space.” What would there be to gain from that?
Their answer to that is probably something along the lines of "this just proves that whatever they are trying to hide/accomplish is just that huge"
An even harder challenge would be to provide evidence that this man has a brain
Oh, he has a brain…
Sadly, most of it is still in Australia…
Proof of a vacuum right there between his ears!
C'mon guys, he's just a grifter.
Let's keep it scientific. He is breathing and moving so he has a brain. Now, the sane functioning of that brain is another subject.
Yep, send him off to see the Wizard. The most wonderful wizard there ever was…
He's 60 years old, yet his mind is like he's 12 years old who believes he has come across a major revelation and needs to share this new found knowledge that he's sure no one has ever thought of.
That's not a very nice thing to say. After all, it's an insult to all the 12 year olds out there who are more intelligent than this guy.
@@forcewielder2000 bro you've answered to like every comment in a funny way lmao
Yeah bruh, my 9 year old has a much better grasp than he does, that's an insult to 12 year olds.
well ive never thought of this before though. i didnt wanna either
Full Respect to you Dan for retiring the 15phd, I never knew he had passed away, out with all the flat earth stuff may he may rest in peace, Thanks Bob 🙏🏻💜
THe funniest part of this video was when Santos says "Orbiting our central sun" and I just thought to myself "I have never heard of that in my life." and then it cuts to Dan just saying "never heard of that" and I cracked up.
Flat Earthers don't REALLY believe what they say. They are basically harmless trolls who enjoy "debating" the outlandish theory. SUCKED IN! DUH! LOL
Vacuum: a space entirely devoid of matter. So Santos’s brain space could be considered a vacuum??
a perfect one at that
But how can he be so dense then? Mysteries over mysteries.
Mental health services are massively underfunded. I feel sorry for this guy that he'll never be able to appreciate the sheer beauty, perfect symmetry & logic of the universe he lives in. It must be like living in a blacked out & sound-proofed tent at Glastonbury.
Right? We're a natural part of all of this amazingness, and he can't enjoy any of it.
My question to these people is always, "Why?" Some conspiracy theories are believable because someone, somewhere stands to gain by perpetuating the conspiracy. Who would, and how would they, gain by faking a spherical earth as opposed to a flat one?
The fact he gets relativity wrong and doesn't understand it's not just the earth that moves.... WOW
It's like he's on a moving train wondering why he's not catching up to the car in front or pulling away from the car behind
I love how Santos uses Mach (The ratio of the speed of a moving body to the speed of sound) to discuss the speed of objects travelling through the vacuum of space. It is an utterly meaningless concept. If you alter the composition of the medium that sound is radiating through, its speed (and thus its ratio - the Mach number) will also change. For example, sound will travel through nickel about one and a half times faster than it would through brass, and as the speed of sound traveling through the vacuum of space is zero, so too is its Mach number.
Also when the medium is traveling along with you Mach is relative to that medium. Otherwise nobody on the Concord would have been able to talk to anyone sitting in front of them ...
It’s because they can’t see air with their eyes. If they didn’t need to breathe it to stay alive they probably wouldn’t think it is real either.
I think Mach numbers technically only apply when the medium is a fluid, but, yeah...using a Mach number to describe the Earth's rotation and/or its velocity through the solar system / galaxy / universe is completely nonsensical.
I spent some time in a calibration lab checking the calibration of aircraft machmeters. We did it with the meter mounted in a vacuum chamber with an external tube supplying simulated pitot probe air pressure. We sucked air out of the vacuum chamber following a chart that gave standard air pressure at various heights. At each specified height we set the pitot pressure to various values to simulate speed through the air at that altitude. It sounds quite complicated but is pretty routine. The reason for doing this was that the speed of sound in the atmosphere changes (slows) with increasing altitude so a standard air speed indicator does not have mach numbers on its dial. If you look at published maximum speeds for aircraft that can exceed the speed of sound it usually includes the fact that the quoted mach numbers are at sea level. Go high enough in the atmosphere and walking pace would be greater than mach 1 (can't think how you would prove this for real though).
The mach numbers he's using aren't meant to actually make sense, it's just a "look at the big numbers!" tactic.
His followers don't know what "mach" means (come to think of it, maybe he doesn't, either).
Nice bit of respect for those who have passed Dan, there's not enough of that today, RIP and for 1 last time, thanks Bob
Ive just face palmed myself watching this
Santos is the guy that just didn't want to study for the test and tried to wing it
There are no new stars.
- What about the new stars being discovered in nebulae?
CGI!!!!
@@MonkeyJedi99 who thinks there's a CGI computer inside every telescope?
Still can't believe they fail so hard at understanding scale.
Honestly, I think it scares them too much to think of how small we are and how vast everything else is. It just shuts their brains down, and they latch onto this stuff because it's reassuring. We're safely tucked under a dome and no "space junk" is ever coming to get us.
I have a hard time getting my head around the immensness of it all, but at least i can understand that i dont know what i dont know. Unlike santos.
They can't even grok that the Earth rotating once per day is ridiculously slow, so of course we don't feel it.
What else do you expect from a guy who's describing galactic motion in terms of speed of sound.
Yep, in Australian kindergartens as much as parents might like to think their kids are learning quantum physics. it's pretty much finger painting and nap time.
Nap time is really meditation and reflection on what they learned and the finger paints help them with their organic chemistry formulas since their hand dexterity has not developed yet.
Sounds like a typical day for Joe Biden.
This guy has a real preoccupation with “Mach” and the speed of sound, even though sound can’t travel in space. I guess saying 0.0021 times the speed of light wouldn’t have the same dramatic impact
I was driving on the m1 at 3am a while back. There was just me and a car around 100 yards infront of me, they stayed that distance for well over 20 minutes. Turns out they were going the same direction and speed as myself. The whole time I didn't even feel like I was moving (despite doing the speed limit). I can only imagine how confusing this would be to people like Santos.
Did you not notice the trees traveling in the opposite direction? 😂
@@oscargr_ That wasn't trees, it was solidified gas made by CGI.
What a way to start my day. Lying in bed with a cup of tea and shaking my head in disbelief 😂
I honestly feel so bad for this man. Think about his age, his life, the way his mind works. He has achieved nothing. He has actively gone backwards intellectually and brought others with him. That is his life's greatest achievement. He will pass on soon and have given less than nothing back to society and his legacy will be one of failure and humiliation on the internet. That's genuinely sad to me.
actually he has given a valuable gift to society... ever hear of the phrase " dont be an asshole or dont be an idiot"? he has contributed to the world.... "Dont be a Santos"
He was a musician. His work is here and there in the web.
I often think that too, especially for people who have gone far down the hole. What it must be like to live in a world where you think that stuff is real. What a terrible and wasted life.
We can tell our kids "don't be like that guy".
Wow! That photo of the Milky Way with the little yellow circle?
INSANE!!!
How do these ppl function in society?
Bewildering isn't it??!!!! 😊
They don't.
He doesn't. Ex-con and serial tax dodger and fine avoider...fled to Mexico and hides out trying to start a woo-woo cult from the gullible fools that pay him $500 to hear one of his seminars.
It's no wonder that Santos has turned the comments off on his videos with all the gibberish he talks
I said the same about all flat earth videos, it’s almost like they don’t won’t any feedback 😂
They know they'd get decimated.
It's also why in that video with Conspiracy Toonz called 'Santos Bonacci unmasked' he goes full ape swearing and shouting his head off for 10+ minutes...it's worth a watch. He knows full well that when he gets exposed like he does for his nonsense that it hurts his bottom line. He sells seminars to push his woo-woo to gullible idiots and the more people find out about him the chance he loses out on potential marks increases.
The guy's a grifter and has been for nearly 20 years...he's also never been smart...in 2015 he was arrested and jailed for, what the papers described as being an 'on the run serial fine dodger'...but that wasn't all. For seven weeks he sent harassing, abusive and threatening letters to the judge. Not most intelligent move ever...and he clearly hasn't got any smarter.
He's also now hiding out in Mexico trying to start up a woo-woo cult, probably for easier drug access and/or on the run from the Aussie taxman again.

All of the questions these people have are answered in great detail in the literature, but they just can’t be bothered to look it up and instead remain wishfully ignorant.
The Earth has always been spinning around a pink unicorn. The particles and stars around us are simply dust and glitter flossing from its long silky tale.
How can someone not take this guy seriously? I mean, look at all the sophisticated equipment in his lab.
Foil hat on the table 😂
RIP Bob.
Santos is such a well taught man - basics of elementary school knowledge are just one googling away. Tell the Dinos that "comets in space are just CGI"
Watching Santos trying to put together words from a Google search is quite... interesting.
So all the pictures I take of nebulae are actually NASA CGI ? When do they place those pictures in my camera?
internet= lots of informations. this guy= not the mental capacity to cope with it!! History of the modern world....
internet = endless amount of knowledge. This guy = can't even understand 5th grade physics book.
In a way, I agree. Does the availability of information and having all this complexity at the tip of your fingers simply overwhelm some people, so they start looking for simpler truths that they can understand and reject all that knowledge that already exists?
