I finally worked out why LEO is a crane operator. Nobody on the worksite can stand to listen to him so they put him in a box on top of a tower. Happy Birthday, Mate!
It's so weird how, according to Flat Earthers, there's this whole worldwide conspiracy where all the world's most powerful people are apparently incapable of hiring decent CGI artists.
Yep...Professor Dave covers this. They say that the people maintaining the "globe illusion" are both titanically powerful, extremely competent, while simultaneously being completely incompetent. It's kind of funny how the flerfs twist themselves into pretzels with this bit of cognitive dissonance. ua-cam.com/video/7ae_XdFEQDw/v-deo.html
So let me get this straight... flat earthers simultaniously believe, that NASA is capable of releasing perfect CGI overviews over the earth but at the same time incapable of good CGI of space debris or astronauts heads? What?!?
Forget NASA for a second because all you really need to have is common sense. Do you honestly believe we're on a moving, spinning ball corkscrewing through space at 67,000 and 1000 mph respectively? How would GPS work if the Earth is fucking moving? That's where your globe nonsense hits a dead end. You have been brainwashed by the highly controlled debacle of an education system since your were children. When you treat science like a religion listening to your "God" Bill Lie the scLIEnce guy, that's where you start to go on a slippery slope. Unless you round Earthers have been to space and have some authentic pictures of the Earth from hundreds of miles away, people need to shut their mouths with their pseudo science bullshit. You've been conditioned to believe that when you hear the term "flat earther" or "conspiracy theorist" you correlate that to a person that is a basement dweller that has lost their mind and isn't living in reality when it's actually gullible sheep like yourself that need to look in the mirror and see how much you've been hoodwinked. You honestly think we enjoy telling people we've been lied to? You seem to think we have nothing better to do than to make shit up when that's not what we're doing AT ALL. I'm only out for the truth. If I went to space right now and saw a fucking globe corkscrewing through space around the Sun, I will happily concede, because I have an open mind. It's closed minded people that become so adamant and so offended when someone comes along to tell them that they've been lied to their entire lives. I'm sorry to tell you this, but the Earth isn't a spinning testicle corkscrewing through space. Debunkers will also try to apply psychology when attempting to refute "flat earthers" insinuating that we're wrong because we are depressed or unhappy with our lives, so we create this fantasy of lies to make ourselves feel better. That's what these dumb fucks so instead of actually proving the Earth is a spinning ball. They'll just say they read it in a book that the Earth is round lmao. These charlatans crack me up.
Happy birthday to a guy that does a great job that he really shouldn't have too. Love all your work and the common sense. Hope life is treating you well despite the insanity you have to deal with.
a good job entertaining us, because he's preaching to the choir and his arrogance/smugness will never convince those guys of anything. Still leagues better than professor dave, though
It’s not really “smug”. The reason it can come off that way is because of the outlandish stupidity of the subject matter. It’s like arguing with someone who thinks we’re all actually breathing helium and not oxygen. Despite this being demonstrably wrong by a stupid margin.
@@jbirdmax The term "smug" is not dependent on the subject matter. Forgiving him for his smugness do to the subject matter is a more appropriate response.
@Barry Davis Calm down, no need to scream. What you're saying proves my point, that all flat earthers can be described by the phrase "He keeps repeating himself and doesn't understand why he's failing". What you're saying now has been disproven by many scientists and even flat earthers alike. You're imagining the atmosphere as a clearly-defined boundary that ends at a specific point. It's not like that. It has different layers of density that gradually decrease as the pressure lowers. That's why you only get 2/3 the amount of oxygen (I think) on MT. Everest than on the surface of the Earth; there's less atmosphere above it and therefore, there's less pressure and therefore, less oxygen particles. It's not rocket science, you learn it in like 8th grade in my country.
I love/despise how Flat-Earthers try to replicate Celestial level experiments while ignoring that their experiments are ALL already tainted by the fact that they: A) Don't/Can't understand the Massive scale on which Planetary events unfold B) Don't realise that the very gravity they are trying to "dubunk" is working against them C) Flat out lie and make up what they don't understand. I once saw a miniseries of two or three parts, based on the Snow White fairy tale. There's one particular scene where the hero and her father are in a village trying to get answers from a guy and he isn't very helpful due to his lack of intelligence. The father (John Larroquette) gets annoyed and says to his daughter "Let's go honey, this guy's no help; he a complete idiot!" to which the guy replies. "If ONLY!! No, I'm what you'd call a half wit; now my Dad. HE was a real idiot." And he was so proud to be the village idiot. Later on the hero and her father give the village's wishing well it's magic back and people start making wishes again; above all the cheering ONE voice booms out "YES!!! at last I'm a complete IDIOT!!!" Meaning that instead of wishing to be smarter he wished to be dumber - something only a complete idiot would do. Every time a Flat Earther "debunks" the globe with such complete confidence, THAT scene is what I'm always imagining.
Hilarious use of the curve calculator. He actually did use it correctly, and then didn't realise that he'd demonstrated that the earth is curved by exactly the amount stated. All he needed to do was draw another tangent on his earth - from the horizon to the balloon. So yes, Felix's "eye level" at the point above his horizon via a line drawn as indicated is exactly twice the height he is above the surface. If he kept going he might have worked out how the Greeks first determined an approximate size of the earth
@@PaulBrown-uj5le i not heard him mention religion but he does think the ISS is like a scene from blazing saddles and he says there would be poo floating all around the place
Doing the trig to calculate the angle from perfectly horizontal to the horizon you can find that Felix's horizon would be only about 6.3 degrees lower. (Thx to skydnir for spotting an error in my math)
Oh dear, it's Dan birthday AND the 30th episode of Flat Earth Fail Compilation already?! It genuinely feels like it was only yesterday Dan released his first ever Flat Earth debunk! Keep it up sir!
Would be a good supervillain, someone who thinks the government keeps all these secrets like the flat earth and climate change faking and such and so tries to overthrow the government
@@theultimatereductionist7592 Then the Death Star/Starkiller Base would have been a massive disk. What would Obi Wan then say? "That's no disk! It's a space station!"
In that last part where FEO show the Dragon separation he virtually gets EVERYTHING wrong. First it is not the booster which the Dragon separates from, its the SECOND stage. The booster is by the time of this safely back on earth landed on the droneship. Secondly what is separating is not the Dragon crew capsule but the Dragon as a whole, that means the capsule AND the trunk (or service module). Dear or dear, FEO you really need to get your facts straight! Lastly, most of the cameras used in these scenarios have a very wide field of vision which tends to distort perspective but captures a lot more interesting views. So again everyone with on ounce of honesty sees that the piece isn't 'going through' the Dragon but instead just passes in front of the camera and ends up hitting the inside of the second stage frame. But ofc honesty isn't one of FEO's trademarks...
Anything you see floating around a spacecraft has almost certainly come from that spacecraft. Orbital speed is about 25,000 km per hour, so anything coming from outside the spacecraft "system" will probably be moving so fast(relative to the camera), it won't be captured on a single frame of video.
Yeah, I totally agree with you. Spacex adds more cameras and gives us a better view of launch, separation, retrieval of the booster and deployment. They don't have to do this but Elon knows how to put on a good show. They can't help but have some FUD released during these events but at least they occur pretty low and degrade their orbit pretty quickly. I love Spacex launches.
I didn't even notice until now that it's not the booster. I was thinking that the interstage looked a bit weird. Now I know why :D Also the second stage separates from the booster. If that was the booster, we would be able to see the vacuum engine from this camera angle.
@@M4RC90 Yep, the camera is always on the 2nd stage showing whatever is being deployed. Didn't want to go too deep since the crane guy is totally bonkers!
"No one in their right mind would put this out as proof of space debris." Congratulations, LEO. You figured it out. Nobody would release "bad CGI" as proof of anything. If all of this was bad hoaxes as LEO claims, does he honestly think that NASA would release them? Somehow their "CGI" can look better and more seamless than multi-million dollar films, but they make amateur mistakes with cameras and editing. Sure. Totally. Happy Birthday Dan! :D
You have to remember that NASA releases nothing but bad CGI hoaxes. But, as bad and obvious these hoaxes are, only a few borderline illiterate guys on UA-cam are smart enough to see through them!😀
"No one in their right mind would put this out as proof of space debris." - That's right, because it isn't any proof of space debris, nobody ever said that. It's just an engineering camera from SpaceX, that they haven chosen to share with us. We should be glad we're able to see this, because they don't have to share anything.
_"If all of this was bad hoaxes as LEO claims, does he honestly think that NASA would release them?"_ James Champlin. I say the same think about the moon landings. If 'THEY' were able to fake the moon landings, don't you THINK it would have been much easier TO PUT THE FAKE STARS IN the photos and videos.
If there were CGI artists for this, why would they add space debrie? seems like it wouldn't be worth the trouble for a detail that not many people would notice!
What's even more amazing with these misguided fools is that they never explain their reasoning why they claim NASA is faking everything from the moon landings, to the space station etc. What has any scientist or Astronomer working for the space program got to gain from lying to everyone. I can't believe that idiot even got a job working a crane...
The window is way too small to see the curve. In addition the resolution is bad and half of the window is covered. And it's probably a fish-eye lens anyway.
@@M4RC90 Exactly. The window width is probably less than a meter and we can only see what, 1º of horizon. But he think's he's convincing. The poor boy's a clown.
the easiest debunk of flat earth: everywhere, anywhere you are, you can look around yourself and see a circle. never any other shape. so, if you stitch every view together, you get a geodesic, not a sheet.
That's how perspective works... This is irrelevant whether the surface is flat or sphere. On a sphere however, the horizon should be below eye-level which isn't what we observe
@@mahfeww this is because flerfs have zero comprehension of scale. You expect to observe the same thing a giant ten miles tall would see. If you were the size of an atom living on a marble you would think it's flat.
@@Spifflik this fantasy of a perception you believe I have is given to you by trolls like this guy. UA-cam pays these shills to feed you garbage. We actually calculate exactly how reality would be in both scenarios. You guys go with "this sounds right". No. We go with exact only. This scimandan, professor Dave and a few others go about their videos with insults and scaring people out of research. People say that flat earthers learn off of UA-cam, but it is the exact opposite in that you guys find shills like this who propagandize Anti-flat earth as the group to be a part of. There is no need to be insulting or have a negative demeanor to any group of people. That is prejudice and that sort of discrimination is unfortunately encouraged. People want to feel part of a group and these shills intentionally scare you out of true exact study.
Happy birthday Dan! And as for LEO's centrifugal experiment, please somebody remind him to rotate his crane at the same rate as Earth does - 15 degrees per hour. Thanks Bob!
@@sorsimmanis626 That's the idea. If he gets stern talking to from his boss, maybe finally he realizes the fact, that Earth doesn't really rotate with speed as blisteringly fast as he imagines. Cannonball Earth, indeed 🙄
I wonder if LEO can calculate how much the cable deflects outward if he turns at 15 deg/h if the cable is 20 m from the axis of rotation. I guess not, because you need g for that: θ = arctan( (2π/T)^2 • r / g ) = 0.0022 arc seconds where θ = deflection angle outwards, T = 24•3600 s, r = 20 m, g = 9.81 m/s^2
1. Magnets lose magnetism if it's heated up. How ball earth's core is burning several thousand degrees and yet doesn't lose it's magnetism? Globe liars must have a childish answer. 2. No one has circumnavigated the earth towards north or south. 3. If earth goes around the sun, then why do we see same stars for all 12 months? Shouldn't we see different stars on different directions? Globe liars got busted!😁 4. How stars at 4 light years away , 600 light years away, 2000 light years away are moving at the same speed? Where is the parallax? While traveling at 66600 mph why all stars are appearing to be moving at the same speed? 5. If sun is cruising then where is the trail? 6. Why sun heat is scorching 100 times more in the noon than in the morning and evening? Just 6000 km making that huge difference? No way. What a pathetic science. 7. Vacuum insulated cups do not transfer heat, then how the sun transfer its heat through 93 Million miles wide vacuum? 8. Rail roads stretch thousands of kilometers and not curved and it's perfectly flat, so earth cannot be a globe. checkmate. 9. How very large amounts of water stay in the cloud unaffected by gravity? How the cloud act as a giant shower nozzle as if it has perfect holes, and the pattern of rainfall is great multitude of parallel lines thin and thick? Because it's programmed by our creator. If you squeeze a sponge that contains water, then water comes out whole, not like drizzle. 10. How the sun is strong enough to hold Neptune, but not attracting the moon? the moon should be revolving the sun. 11. How air molecules are rubbing against vacuum? That's impossible. 12. How so-called rovers/rockets/probes are having propulsion in vacuum? If space has nothing to push against, then how mission control people are maneuvering probes using thrust? So big bang, solar system, galaxies are LIE , they lied on purpose to hide the true GOD..
Happy birthday, Dan! Just came across your channel recently and it is now one of my favorites. You show knowledge of the subject, intelligence of thought and great humanity in addressing these loons. It is great to know that there is another voice for sanity and truth. I didn't realize that the flat earthers had become so aggressively and arrogantly insane. All of the idiots are buying into what was essentially a bad practical joke. Happy birthday again, Dan. I hope you have many more years of debunking. I'm off to watch more of your videos.
re: the high altitude jump, what LEO needs to be able to imagine is a camera fixed at any angle other than dead-level. He claims the horizon shouldn't be where it is, but at no point does he acknowledge that the camera might be angled down.
I would have to look at the video in closer detail, but I am to lazy to rewind right now. What I want to say is this: I seriously doubt that the visible line is the actual horizon. It is the upper edge of a cloud layer and thus by itself not at sea level but high above the true horizon. Without having done the math I would even claim it is not at horizon distance either.
@SciFi Author B.L. Alley For being "Geocentrists" which i fittingly like to anagram as Egocentrists, im surprised Why, wont they like Earth being the biggest thing in the galaxy or something? Anything more to make them feel like the most special thing in the universe , something god did for us?
Not to mention, he's showing literally a foot-wide gap next to Baumgartner and saying "it's flat". I'm looking at it, thinking, "Lemme load up GIMP and draw out a line - hold mah beer!" Odd he didn't show the horizon when he get ready to leave for the few frames it was at the centre of the and there'd be no barrel distortion. Damn. Now I wanna get a hi-res screen cap of it to debunk with!
Haha, the curve curvature calculator cracked me up, I was absolutely not prepared for such stupidity. And he is so proud of himself while failing to see the obvious x)
The space debris clip just had me laughing thinking of the Father Ted scene with Ted and Dougall, 'Now these are small, but the ones out there are far away.' 🤣
If earth and atmosphere spin 1000 mph in the eastward direction, then flights traveling west, must be having hard time to cruise and will never reach its westward destination. But in real life scenario, flights reach the destinations between A and B at the same duration regardless of the direction. This one fact alone is enough to prove that the earth is NOT a spinning ball, but rather a flat disk.. Globe model is illuminati deception, and it's been busted.. checkmate..
Many happy returns Dan, great work as usual. I'm pretty sure LEO scores the highest of all the flerfs on the Dunning Kruger scale. His sarcastic and patronising tone doesn't help when he's actually debunking himself here! Felix Baumgartner's jump has really nailed LEO and his dumb argument. Thanks Dan!
Congrats mate!! Many, many returns. You've picked a great one to dedicate the fail compilation to. Leo is perhaps the flat earther that scores highest on the Dunning Kruger scale. Very amusing.
Just on a side note, there was a partial lunar eclipse last night… I guess the invisible flying disk was misaligned slightly. Coincidentally, from my location the sun had only just set, and the moon was just rising. It was as if a big thing was creating a shadow on about 99% of the moon.
I mean, I'm going to play Idiots advocate for a moment, Crane operation is a trained skill, and not very academic, so it has little to do with his inability to see that the earth is round.
@@shaneeslick he doesn't operate it. We do it remotely from the comfort of my site cabin. All the lads agreed that we should put him up in the cab 'cos they can't stand him. We all laugh about it, and the thought of him pissing in a lemonade bottle, while making crane noises. - "brrrrum, chugga, chugga, whirrrrr! I'm not entirely sure what's going on!"
Even in the first shot in real time, its clear that the object moved in front of the booster. He really is grasping at straws. Also, I love how he says "the only thing you need to concern yourself with is his head" knowing damn well that ball is way too hard to explain away lol. Happy birthday Dan, I wish you many more years of continued success bringing us entertaing content.
remember, this is the same guy that claimed that nasa were editing the live feed of the ISS, with the amount of videos he's put out he is bound to know how much work goes into editing a video. if nasa has the money and the knowledge to be able to edit live feeds, surely if it was all jst CGI, they would be able to produce something without any mistakes 🤦♂️
My favourite thing about the red bull jump video? I can literally see slight curvature on the horizon. There's a small hump in the middle of the window
Five minutes in, and once again, it sounds like the same old thing: "if I can prove the globe is false, then I can say whatever I want to be true!" That's the most frustrating thing about flat earthers. They're not arguing FOR a flat earth, they're arguing AGAINST a globe. PREDICT AN ECLIPSE
God!!! Yes, this!!!!! is exactly how I feel with conspiracy theorists, they don't care about what they believe in, They just want to be put on a pedestal.
And of course. Demonstrates that he can film directly through the window of the crane he is clearly sitting in. Chooses to film directly through the window of the crane, but then get out of the crane, walk across the construction site, go to the lunch room, upload the footage to his lap top, and then film the footage again with his phone. Which he will need to upload to his computer, again, in order to edit the video together for UA-cam. Fuckin. Quality. Happy Birthday Dan.
What? Why isn’t he just recording the whole thing with his phone? The camera attached to the block is showing on a screen (that leo says he will just use for this test instead of using it to also help him with lifts by making sure he is directly over the lift point or middle of the load) and he is recording that screen and out of the window with his phone. He could then upload it directly, have a computer or tablet with him in the cab or wait until he is home to upload it. Wouldn’t it be unusual for a building site to have onsite free internet for staff use?
@@murph8411 The screen being filmed has carpet and a gyprock wall behind it, and he was talking about eating soup while filming. If he is still in the crane cab, and strictly he could be, then I'm a bit confused as to which carpeted, plaster walled, food stocked room of the cab it is. It looks like he is filming a screen from somewhere larger than a crane cab. I was of course, huffing paint when I said that the vantage point could just be filmed with the phone directly. Unless he has super long arms. I guess he couldn't be bothered getting the crane wifi to feed directly to his phone? But that backdrop is still nonsensical to me.
- Doesn't know how physics work - Doesn't know how angles work - Doesn't know how perspective works - Doesn't believe in gravity - Works as a crane operator Feels dangerous.
For the debris part, if you slow it down like Dan did here, you can see the light reflecting off the little scrap of metal as it passes in FRONT of the Vulcan booster. Only an absolute moron would think it “passed through” the booster. LEO falls into that category. Also sorry it’s late but HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAN!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Every child wonders what the earth is like. Then they learn, see the world as it is and move on. Flat earthers are just like the rest of us. Minus the learning and moving on.
happy birthday dan thank you for your dedication to the channel and bringing us all these great videos showing us the incredible insanity of some people
@@M4RC90 You, undoubtedly, need to be able to understand weight loading and shifting, as that can affect your reach and your safe balance extremities, as well as knowing how wind speed can affect your load (modern cranes come with all kinds of safety features and stops to try and prevent bad use and accidents). I suppose these come under physics but I'm not aware of any kind of physics qualification being a requirement when getting a license.
Flatearther = liar. LEO = flat-earther. Therefore, LEO = liar = lies about everything. Lies about "having a job". Lies about "operating a crane". Nothing wrong with being jobless. No shame in being jobless. Not a jobless person's choice or decision. But, much shame in being unemployable. ALL flatturds are unemployable, useless.
Happy Birthday Dan! On a side note, I need your guys help. I was going through some of the comments on that level earth observer's vids, and I found many of them saying stuff like they would educate their kids on the "real" science. This is very scary! Teaching your kids pseudoscience is bad. Can we do something collectively to ban people like him? This is quite concerning.
It’s always hilarious to me how flat Earthers consistently fail to consider just how massive the Earth truly is. How in god’s name would the right and left ends of the horizon curve downward when the majority of the planet is beneath you? What would they connect to? If you can’t understand what I mean, imagine an ant crawling on a bowling ball. From the ant’s perspective, the horizon is going to be straight in all directions...even if you place the ant 6 inches above the ball. But if you place the ant one meter from the surface of the ball, then the curve of the horizon could be properly distinguished. Use your noggins for something besides a hat rack, people.
Im wishing you the deepest and most sincere Happy Birthday Dan. Your channel has brought me countless laughs over the last year or 2 and i cant thank you enough. Your videos have been a break from the reality of the pandemic and everything else going on. Much, much love Dan and i hope you have the best day. ❤❤ Happy Birthday Dan
I'm rather concerned that they let LEO operate a crane. Someone who doesn't understand basic physics concepts such as gravity shouldn't be anywhere near a job site, let alone a crane.
Happy birthday Dan! Here's for another 39 years of teaching flat earthers how the world works. I would say that is to many years to teach them, but we all know they won't accept being wrong.
Happy Birthday Dan. LEO is a poor sod afraid to show his face and rarely ventures out from the safety of his channel these days. Like most Flatties he fails at Math, scale and Geometry. Every conversation I have had with him results in him running away. The guy is hopeless.
Those cranes scare me enough as it is (one collapsed in Seattle a couple of years ago, plus: acrophobia). I can't imagine spinning one fast enough that centrifugal "force" would be measurable.
Many happy returns of the day Dan! Be blessed. You are one of the good UA-camr who deserves a good amount of complements in everyway. A fan and an admirer from Pakistan!
Congratulations Dan on your birthday. And what a great lucky gift to have a lunar eclipse! Watching the spherical Earth over shadow our spherical Moon was impressive. I never have heard a flat earther explain an eclipse before. I can't wait to hear it.
@@RyllenKriel the weather wasn't the thing that was stopping the most recent one, it was only visible in the US and partially visible in the UK, the moon was also very close to the horizon which made it impossible to see in my area cause there are trees absolutely everywhere
@@JBG-AjaxzeMedia Yeah, I know the UK couldn't see it very well due to the position of the Earth. I was just wishing you good luck on the future weather since we cannot forecast that so far in advance. Cheers!
So what we’ve learned today is; They don’t know how big people are in relation to the globe. And they don’t know what perspective is? Seems about right. No arguments there. Great video.
Happy Birthday Dan. Good to see you've made a mess of LEO, again. I just don't get how these people can see things so differently than they rest of us & continue to make the flimsiest piece of so-called data into evidence. Too much time on their hands.
Happy Birthday Dan, I'm so glad to have been around since you started this channel. You and the other flatard busters have been a huge role in my 7 year sobriety so thank you for that brother. Much love and respect from Indiana, USA.
Ok Dan, its 2:00 am Friday, November 19, 2021. We are in the middle of an almost full lunar eclipse. How do the Flat Earthers explain that one. Stupid math is still stupid math. You can count oranges and complain you don't have enough pieces of pizza to eat.
The moon was due west just before sunrise here (5:20 EST in Ohio) and I thought it was strange that the bottom right quarter was dark (with a curved shadow). It didnt seem normal and it dawned on me this could be a lunar eclipse.
Happy birthday Dan! Yeah LEO should take that video down. He's planning on misusing equipment on an active jobsite and recording while occupying the operator seat. That's considered a safety infraction worthy of termination.
I wonder what technology the soviet special effects department used back in the 80's to fake the MIR-footage. The poor soul who had to render the data in real time using nothing but a pocket calculator - an absolute gemius!
I’ve found 2 things that flat earthers dont seem to understand (they are quite related) 1. The size of the earth (look at literally any visualisation of the earth made by a flat earther) 2. Literally anything regarding rotation
Happy Birthday Dan! That’s pretty cool, my name is also Dan and I turned 39 last May. I know you hear this all the time but your doing great work, I love the channel!
Happy Birthday! Thanks for all the gifts you have given us. The crane operator could do some ball drops to test the rotating earth. A plumb bob would hang straight down, but a dropped ball should land just a bit to the west [no, east], shouldn't it, on a rotating earth. Not enough to see, but he could claim that proves there is no spin. As always, the fact there is an horizon line shows the earth is a globe. A flat earth would just fade out into a distant blur.
@@Robert08010 Yes, I am referring to the Coriolis Effect. A ball that is dropped still has the momentum it started with, but it is actually moving slightly faster than the ground below it. See, it relates to distance from the axis of the earth. The surface of the earth at the equator is moving eastward at about 1,000 miles per hour, due to the earth's rotation. The top of the crane, though, is moving at, say, 1,001 miles per hour, because it is making a bigger circle - speed wildly exaggerated for illustration - as it is further from the axis. Therefore a dropped ball is going to curve as it descends. That is called the Coriolis effect, and that was what I was referring to, yes. And I said "west" earlier, which is backwards.
Happy birthday Dan! A great day to see another flat earth compilation. Didn't realize LEO had that much to fill one video though. Wow no wonder he had a whole episode amazing how wrong he can be.
By 11.40 he's literally said it 3 times, yes, it's below you! Come on LEO, you can do this. And surely, if the earth was flat, wouldn't they see the same horizon? Is there a horizon on a flat earth?
That always makes me laugh. Every time a flat earther talks about the horizon they are acknowledging that the earth is not flat. On a flat earth there can be no horizon. On a flat earth you should be able to stand on the west coast of Ireland and point a decent telescope west and see America yet for some bizarre unexplained reason we can't. Should be pretty simple what with water finding its own level etc.
oh ,their BEST answer is that some BS like "limitations of our eyes" prevents us from seeing very far. to which i retort, "then how come we can see STARS just above the horizon? and don't you keep saying 'earth is flat because WE SEE TOO FAR'?!" ua-cam.com/video/qileP4bAzek/v-deo.html
I was very confused when he was like "the debris flew straight through it!" Then it just was between the capsule and a camera then you pointed out he was trying to imply the object was massive and not part of the mechanism that released the capsule where you see like 7 other objects right after release
As a geologist I’m surprised that nobody has ever asked a flat earther their opinion about PLATE TECTONICS. It would be also interesting to see what they think about the fact the geophysicist can image the entire planet using seismic waves.
@@artgutierrez6568 yeah I know and I don’t hope to change their mind, but it would be fun just to see what they come up with. I would like also to point out that if they don’t accept Plate Tectonics they have to inscribe myself and thousands of others geophysicist and geologists to the conspiracy ranks.
@@lucaskin1 "plate tectonics are fake", "you are indoctrinated", "you are a paid shill", you know... The usual flerf cop-outs when facts and logic slap them in the face.
Wikiquote: Plate tectonics is the "generally accepted" "scientific" "theory" bla bla etc... Another stupid THEORY. Ask me please whats my opinion about this bullshit! I am shure, and i am a geologist in my imagination, i can image the entire planet using seismic waves as flat as it is! You proofed that you are a very special idiot! But follow always ShitmanDan and you are not alone in your round world of stupidity!
Regarding the space debris: If it really was space debris, it would be travelling so fast, you wouldn't be able to see it. Stuff don't really orbit at 5 km/h...
Just by guessing, the actual hieght on the position of felix's balloon in the diagram would be roughly 3k to 4k miles above the surface. When in actuality 38 miles, the height of the jump, would be around the "ankles" on the stick figure.
I finally worked out why LEO is a crane operator. Nobody on the worksite can stand to listen to him so they put him in a box on top of a tower.
Happy Birthday, Mate!
They put him as far away from Earth as possible
@@OrbitalCookie Apparently not far enough yet. But hey, Jeff and Elon are working on that.
Also being a crane driver... he should know all about gravity and how it affects the strain on his lifting gear 🤪

@@StormsparkPegasus Let's not even get into the weird political alliances that would be necessary to pull it off.
So let me get this straight... flat earthers simultaniously believe, that NASA is capable of releasing perfect CGI overviews over the earth but at the same time incapable of good CGI of space debris or astronauts heads? What?!?
Yep.
Seen his newest video?
Forget NASA for a second because all you really need to have is common sense. Do you honestly believe we're on a moving, spinning ball corkscrewing through space at 67,000 and 1000 mph respectively? How would GPS work if the Earth is fucking moving? That's where your globe nonsense hits a dead end.
You have been brainwashed by the highly controlled debacle of an education system since your were children. When you treat science like a religion listening to your "God" Bill Lie the scLIEnce guy, that's where you start to go on a slippery slope. Unless you round Earthers have been to space and have some authentic pictures of the Earth from hundreds of miles away, people need to shut their mouths with their pseudo science bullshit.
You've been conditioned to believe that when you hear the term "flat earther" or "conspiracy theorist" you correlate that to a person that is a basement dweller that has lost their mind and isn't living in reality when it's actually gullible sheep like yourself that need to look in the mirror and see how much you've been hoodwinked. You honestly think we enjoy telling people we've been lied to? You seem to think we have nothing better to do than to make shit up when that's not what we're doing AT ALL.
I'm only out for the truth. If I went to space right now and saw a fucking globe corkscrewing through space around the Sun, I will happily concede, because I have an open mind. It's closed minded people that become so adamant and so offended when someone comes along to tell them that they've been lied to their entire lives. I'm sorry to tell you this, but the Earth isn't a spinning testicle corkscrewing through space.
Debunkers will also try to apply psychology when attempting to refute "flat earthers" insinuating that we're wrong because we are depressed or unhappy with our lives, so we create this fantasy of lies to make ourselves feel better. That's what these dumb fucks so instead of actually proving the Earth is a spinning ball. They'll just say they read it in a book that the Earth is round lmao. These charlatans crack me up.
Classic! Your enemy is simultaneously extremely powerful and extremely weak.
Happy birthday to a guy that does a great job that he really shouldn't have too. Love all your work and the common sense. Hope life is treating you well despite the insanity you have to deal with.

a good job entertaining us, because he's preaching to the choir and his arrogance/smugness will never convince those guys of anything. Still leagues better than professor dave, though
It’s not really “smug”.
The reason it can come off that way is because of the outlandish stupidity of the subject matter.
It’s like arguing with someone who thinks we’re all actually breathing helium and not oxygen. Despite this being demonstrably wrong by a stupid margin.
@@jbirdmax The term "smug" is not dependent on the subject matter. Forgiving him for his smugness do to the subject matter is a more appropriate response.
@@larrote6467 Except it has.
"He keeps repeating himself and doesn't understand why he's failing" Is basically how you can describe any flat earther on the planet.
you've nailed it 👍
That's "science" to them.
Didn't you know? If you repeat something many times, it becomes the truth. This is even happening in the politics.
Insanity*
@Barry Davis Calm down, no need to scream. What you're saying proves my point, that all flat earthers can be described by the phrase "He keeps repeating himself and doesn't understand why he's failing". What you're saying now has been disproven by many scientists and even flat earthers alike. You're imagining the atmosphere as a clearly-defined boundary that ends at a specific point. It's not like that. It has different layers of density that gradually decrease as the pressure lowers. That's why you only get 2/3 the amount of oxygen (I think) on MT. Everest than on the surface of the Earth; there's less atmosphere above it and therefore, there's less pressure and therefore, less oxygen particles. It's not rocket science, you learn it in like 8th grade in my country.
LEO: "I've just had a great idea for a scientific demonstration..."
To everybody on the ground: "RRRUNNN!!!!!"
I love/despise how Flat-Earthers try to replicate Celestial level experiments while ignoring that their experiments are ALL already tainted by the fact that they:
A) Don't/Can't understand the Massive scale on which Planetary events unfold
B) Don't realise that the very gravity they are trying to "dubunk" is working against them
C) Flat out lie and make up what they don't understand.
I once saw a miniseries of two or three parts, based on the Snow White fairy tale. There's one particular scene where the hero and her father are in a village trying to get answers from a guy and he isn't very helpful due to his lack of intelligence. The father (John Larroquette) gets annoyed and says to his daughter "Let's go honey, this guy's no help; he a complete idiot!" to which the guy replies. "If ONLY!! No, I'm what you'd call a half wit; now my Dad. HE was a real idiot." And he was so proud to be the village idiot. Later on the hero and her father give the village's wishing well it's magic back and people start making wishes again; above all the cheering ONE voice booms out "YES!!! at last I'm a complete IDIOT!!!" Meaning that instead of wishing to be smarter he wished to be dumber - something only a complete idiot would do.
Every time a Flat Earther "debunks" the globe with such complete confidence, THAT scene is what I'm always imagining.
Hilarious use of the curve calculator. He actually did use it correctly, and then didn't realise that he'd demonstrated that the earth is curved by exactly the amount stated. All he needed to do was draw another tangent on his earth - from the horizon to the balloon. So yes, Felix's "eye level" at the point above his horizon via a line drawn as indicated is exactly twice the height he is above the surface. If he kept going he might have worked out how the Greeks first determined an approximate size of the earth
So close! xD
If only his judgement wasn't clouded by his beliefs.
He's not another religious lunatic is he?..🤦♂️🙄
@@PaulBrown-uj5le i not heard him mention religion but he does think the ISS is like a scene from blazing saddles and he says there would be poo floating all around the place
@@PaulBrown-uj5le No, LEO's argument is always, "That picture looks funny to me."
Doing the trig to calculate the angle from perfectly horizontal to the horizon you can find that Felix's horizon would be only about 6.3 degrees lower.
(Thx to skydnir for spotting an error in my math)
I laughed so hard when I saw he basically calculated Felix's height and he even repeated it not realizing 😂
Not only that; his horizon lines point into space and not at the horizon and, if made parallel, his line is 127661 feet below ground. Braindead
Oh dear, it's Dan birthday AND the 30th episode of Flat Earth Fail Compilation already?! It genuinely feels like it was only yesterday Dan released his first ever Flat Earth debunk!

Actually makes me believe he’s not in a crane.
Reflections.
In that last part where FEO show the Dragon separation he virtually gets EVERYTHING wrong. First it is not the booster which the Dragon separates from, its the SECOND stage. The booster is by the time of this safely back on earth landed on the droneship.
Secondly what is separating is not the Dragon crew capsule but the Dragon as a whole, that means the capsule AND the trunk (or service module). Dear or dear, FEO you really need to get your facts straight!
Lastly, most of the cameras used in these scenarios have a very wide field of vision which tends to distort perspective but captures a lot more interesting views. So again everyone with on ounce of honesty sees that the piece isn't 'going through' the Dragon but instead just passes in front of the camera and ends up hitting the inside of the second stage frame. But ofc honesty isn't one of FEO's trademarks...
Anything you see floating around a spacecraft has almost certainly come from that spacecraft.
Orbital speed is about 25,000 km per hour, so anything coming from outside the spacecraft "system" will probably be moving so fast(relative to the camera), it won't be captured on a single frame of video.
Not only that, he said that the camera was FROM dragon.. but you can see The trunk of dragon drifting off instead. You can clearly see the fins!
Yeah, I totally agree with you. Spacex adds more cameras and gives us a better view of launch, separation, retrieval of the booster and deployment. They don't have to do this but Elon knows how to put on a good show. They can't help but have some FUD released during these events but at least they occur pretty low and degrade their orbit pretty quickly. I love Spacex launches.
I didn't even notice until now that it's not the booster. I was thinking that the interstage looked a bit weird. Now I know why :D
Also the second stage separates from the booster. If that was the booster, we would be able to see the vacuum engine from this camera angle.
@@M4RC90 Yep, the camera is always on the 2nd stage showing whatever is being deployed. Didn't want to go too deep since the crane guy is totally bonkers!
"No one in their right mind would put this out as proof of space debris." Congratulations, LEO. You figured it out. Nobody would release "bad CGI" as proof of anything. If all of this was bad hoaxes as LEO claims, does he honestly think that NASA would release them? Somehow their "CGI" can look better and more seamless than multi-million dollar films, but they make amateur mistakes with cameras and editing. Sure. Totally.
Happy Birthday Dan! :D
You have to remember that NASA releases nothing but bad CGI hoaxes. But, as bad and obvious these hoaxes are, only a few borderline illiterate guys on UA-cam are smart enough to see through them!😀
"No one in their right mind would put this out as proof of space debris." - That's right, because it isn't any proof of space debris, nobody ever said that. It's just an engineering camera from SpaceX, that they haven chosen to share with us. We should be glad we're able to see this, because they don't have to share anything.
"let's focus on the most irrelevant thing so people see that we don't have a shred of common sense."
_"If all of this was bad hoaxes as LEO claims, does he honestly think that NASA would release them?"_
James Champlin. I say the same think about the moon landings. If 'THEY' were able to fake the moon landings, don't you THINK it would have been much easier TO PUT THE FAKE STARS IN the photos and videos.
If there were CGI artists for this, why would they add space debrie? seems like it wouldn't be worth the trouble for a detail that not many people would notice!
Sorry, can't cope with more than a minute or so of LEO's misplaced condescension. That voice! (Happy birthday BTW). :-)
I read this at first as low earth orbit and was confused why low earth orbit would have misplaced condescension 😂
That and his obsession with calling everything he doesn't like "pantomime"... Ugh
What's even more amazing with these misguided fools is that they never explain their reasoning why they claim NASA is faking everything from the moon landings, to the space station etc. What has any scientist or Astronomer working for the space program got to gain from lying to everyone. I can't believe that idiot even got a job working a crane...
I know his voice is so arrogant and smug, he must be a great laugh....not.
Agreed he's a complete failure
This guy: "an obvious flat horizon."
Everybody else: sees a curved horizon.
I even took a small piece of paper for reference. With it, you can clearly see the faint curve
The window is way too small to see the curve. In addition the resolution is bad and half of the window is covered. And it's probably a fish-eye lens anyway.
@@M4RC90 Exactly. The window width is probably less than a meter and we can only see what, 1º of horizon. But he think's he's convincing.
The poor boy's a clown.
the easiest debunk of flat earth: everywhere, anywhere you are, you can look around yourself and see a circle. never any other shape. so, if you stitch every view together, you get a geodesic, not a sheet.
That's how perspective works... This is irrelevant whether the surface is flat or sphere. On a sphere however, the horizon should be below eye-level which isn't what we observe
@@mahfeww this is because flerfs have zero comprehension of scale. You expect to observe the same thing a giant ten miles tall would see. If you were the size of an atom living on a marble you would think it's flat.

Happy birthday Dan!
And as for LEO's centrifugal experiment, please somebody remind him to rotate his crane at the same rate as Earth does - 15 degrees per hour. Thanks Bob!
With that speed, LEO gets to have many soup breaks before he makes just one rotation.
@@sorsimmanis626 That's the idea. If he gets stern talking to from his boss, maybe finally he realizes the fact, that Earth doesn't really rotate with speed as blisteringly fast as he imagines. Cannonball Earth, indeed 🙄
I wonder if LEO can calculate how much the cable deflects outward if he turns at 15 deg/h if the cable is 20 m from the axis of rotation. I guess not, because you need g for that:
θ = arctan( (2π/T)^2 • r / g ) = 0.0022 arc seconds
where θ = deflection angle outwards, T = 24•3600 s, r = 20 m, g = 9.81 m/s^2
1. Magnets lose magnetism if it's heated up. How ball earth's core is burning several thousand degrees and yet doesn't lose it's magnetism? Globe liars must have a childish answer.
2. No one has circumnavigated the earth towards north or south.
3. If earth goes around the sun, then why do we see same stars for all 12 months? Shouldn't we see different stars on different directions? Globe liars got busted!😁
4. How stars at 4 light years away , 600 light years away, 2000 light years away are moving at the same speed? Where is the parallax? While traveling at 66600 mph why all stars are appearing to be moving at the same speed?
5. If sun is cruising then where is the trail?
6. Why sun heat is scorching 100 times more in the noon than in the morning and evening? Just 6000 km making that huge difference? No way. What a pathetic science.
7. Vacuum insulated cups do not transfer heat, then how the sun transfer its heat through 93 Million miles wide vacuum?
8. Rail roads stretch thousands of kilometers and not curved and it's perfectly flat, so earth cannot be a globe. checkmate.
9. How very large amounts of water stay in the cloud unaffected by gravity? How the cloud act as a giant shower nozzle as if it has perfect holes, and the pattern of rainfall is great multitude of parallel lines thin and thick? Because it's programmed by our creator. If you squeeze a sponge that contains water, then water comes out whole, not like drizzle.
10. How the sun is strong enough to hold Neptune, but not attracting the moon? the moon should be revolving the sun.
11. How air molecules are rubbing against vacuum? That's impossible.
12. How so-called rovers/rockets/probes are having propulsion in vacuum? If space has nothing to push against, then how mission control people are maneuvering probes using thrust?
So big bang, solar system, galaxies are LIE , they lied on purpose to hide the true GOD..

It is great to know that there is another voice for sanity and truth. I didn't realize that the flat earthers had become so aggressively and arrogantly insane.

How would spinning a crane supposed to "annihilate the cannonball earth"?
What seems absurd to me is that someone has given a flat brain access to a crane.
"Globe-Math" - You know, the thing we simple folks call Geometry...
re: the high altitude jump, what LEO needs to be able to imagine is a camera fixed at any angle other than dead-level. He claims the horizon shouldn't be where it is, but at no point does he acknowledge that the camera might be angled down.
He sees that it might fit his narrative and runs with it
I would have to look at the video in closer detail, but I am to lazy to rewind right now. What I want to say is this: I seriously doubt that the visible line is the actual horizon. It is the upper edge of a cloud layer and thus by itself not at sea level but high above the true horizon. Without having done the math I would even claim it is not at horizon distance either.
@SciFi Author B.L. Alley For being "Geocentrists" which i fittingly like to anagram as Egocentrists, im surprised
Why, wont they like Earth being the biggest thing in the galaxy or something? Anything more to make them feel like the most special thing in the universe , something god did for us?
Not to mention, he's showing literally a foot-wide gap next to Baumgartner and saying "it's flat".
I'm looking at it, thinking, "Lemme load up GIMP and draw out a line - hold mah beer!"
Odd he didn't show the horizon when he get ready to leave for the few frames it was at the centre of the and there'd be no barrel distortion.
Damn. Now I wanna get a hi-res screen cap of it to debunk with!
This was my immediate thought too
Haha, the curve curvature calculator cracked me up, I was absolutely not prepared for such stupidity.
And he is so proud of himself while failing to see the obvious x)
That is practically the definition of the Dunning-Kruger syndrome.
The space debris clip just had me laughing thinking of the Father Ted scene with Ted and Dougall, 'Now these are small, but the ones out there are far away.' 🤣
If for nothing else, I give you a thumbs up just for bringing Father Ted into it! ; )
If earth and atmosphere spin 1000 mph in the eastward direction, then flights traveling west, must be having hard time to cruise and will never reach its westward destination. But in real life scenario, flights reach the destinations between A and B at the same duration regardless of the direction. This one fact alone is enough to prove that the earth is NOT a spinning ball, but rather a flat disk.. Globe model is illuminati deception, and it's been busted.. checkmate..
Many happy returns Dan, great work as usual. I'm pretty sure LEO scores the highest of all the flerfs on the Dunning Kruger scale. His sarcastic and patronising tone doesn't help when he's actually debunking himself here! Felix Baumgartner's jump has really nailed LEO and his dumb argument. Thanks Dan!
Congrats mate!! Many, many returns. You've picked a great one to dedicate the fail compilation to. Leo is perhaps the flat earther that scores highest on the Dunning Kruger scale. Very amusing.
Just on a side note, there was a partial lunar eclipse last night… I guess the invisible flying disk was misaligned slightly.
Coincidentally, from my location the sun had only just set, and the moon was just rising. It was as if a big thing was creating a shadow on about 99% of the moon.
Oh they were just changing the bulb in the projector.
Happy birthday Dan! 🎂 LEO is the village idiot that keeps on giving! 😂 How he’s allowed near a crane or any kind of heavy machinery really baffles me!

Five minutes in, and once again, it sounds like the same old thing: "if I can prove the globe is false, then I can say whatever I want to be true!" That's the most frustrating thing about flat earthers. They're not arguing FOR a flat earth, they're arguing AGAINST a globe.
PREDICT AN ECLIPSE
God!!! Yes, this!!!!! is exactly how I feel with conspiracy theorists, they don't care about what they believe in, They just want to be put on a pedestal.
Of course LEO does not have time to do two spins with the crane to simulate Earth rotation while eating soup, it'd take 48 hours!
And of course. Demonstrates that he can film directly through the window of the crane he is clearly sitting in. Chooses to film directly through the window of the crane, but then get out of the crane, walk across the construction site, go to the lunch room, upload the footage to his lap top, and then film the footage again with his phone. Which he will need to upload to his computer, again, in order to edit the video together for UA-cam.
Fuckin. Quality.
Happy Birthday Dan.
What?
Why isn’t he just recording the whole thing with his phone? The camera attached to the block is showing on a screen (that leo says he will just use for this test instead of using it to also help him with lifts by making sure he is directly over the lift point or middle of the load) and he is recording that screen and out of the window with his phone. He could then upload it directly, have a computer or tablet with him in the cab or wait until he is home to upload it.
Wouldn’t it be unusual for a building site to have onsite free internet for staff use?
@@murph8411 The screen being filmed has carpet and a gyprock wall behind it, and he was talking about eating soup while filming. If he is still in the crane cab, and strictly he could be, then I'm a bit confused as to which carpeted, plaster walled, food stocked room of the cab it is. It looks like he is filming a screen from somewhere larger than a crane cab. I was of course, huffing paint when I said that the vantage point could just be filmed with the phone directly. Unless he has super long arms.
I guess he couldn't be bothered getting the crane wifi to feed directly to his phone? But that backdrop is still nonsensical to me.
Flat earthers probably don't trust mirrors either. They're probably like "Who the hell is that? Quit copying me mate!" Then run away
A mate of mine once got so drunk he started a fight with his refection in a pub. Kept shouting "get out my way or I'll deck ya" classic.

Feels dangerous.
Hopefully that is a small crane and he doesn't decide the loads.
For the debris part, if you slow it down like Dan did here, you can see the light reflecting off the little scrap of metal as it passes in FRONT of the Vulcan booster. Only an absolute moron would think it “passed through” the booster. LEO falls into that category.
Also sorry it’s late but HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAN!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

I suppose these come under physics but I'm not aware of any kind of physics qualification being a requirement when getting a license.

On a side note, I need your guys help. I was going through some of the comments on that level earth observer's vids, and I found many of them saying stuff like they would educate their kids on the "real" science. This is very scary! Teaching your kids pseudoscience is bad. Can we do something collectively to ban people like him? This is quite concerning.
It’s always hilarious to me how flat Earthers consistently fail to consider just how massive the Earth truly is. How in god’s name would the right and left ends of the horizon curve downward when the majority of the planet is beneath you? What would they connect to?
If you can’t understand what I mean, imagine an ant crawling on a bowling ball. From the ant’s perspective, the horizon is going to be straight in all directions...even if you place the ant 6 inches above the ball. But if you place the ant one meter from the surface of the ball, then the curve of the horizon could be properly distinguished.

Those cranes scare me enough as it is (one collapsed in Seattle a couple of years ago, plus: acrophobia). I can't imagine spinning one fast enough that centrifugal "force" would be measurable.
Old mate won’t have a job for long if he starts spinning the crane around on company time
If he really was a crane driver there would be no problem in him doing a test rotation at 0.000694rpm or 15 degrees per hour, but Adam is a fraud.
Headlines read: "Man gets arrested for endangering lives by spinning around cranes in centrifugal fashion."
Many happy returns of the day Dan! Be blessed. You are one of the good UA-camr who deserves a good amount of complements in everyway. A fan and an admirer from Pakistan!
Congratulations Dan on your birthday. And what a great lucky gift to have a lunar eclipse! Watching the spherical Earth over shadow our spherical Moon was impressive. I never have heard a flat earther explain an eclipse before. I can't wait to hear it.
it wasn't very visible in the UK, but i was buzzing to find out that the next Lunar eclipse is on my birthday too! 16th May 2022 lmao
@@JBG-AjaxzeMedia Very cool, I hope the weather behaves and you get to see it.
@@RyllenKriel the weather wasn't the thing that was stopping the most recent one, it was only visible in the US and partially visible in the UK, the moon was also very close to the horizon which made it impossible to see in my area cause there are trees absolutely everywhere
@@JBG-AjaxzeMedia Yeah, I know the UK couldn't see it very well due to the position of the Earth. I was just wishing you good luck on the future weather since we cannot forecast that so far in advance. Cheers!
@@RyllenKriel ty :)
“The debris goes through the capsule! OH!!! And ignore the curvature of the Earth. That’s a fisheye lens.” 🤣🤣
So what we’ve learned today is; They don’t know how big people are in relation to the globe. And they don’t know what perspective is? Seems about right. No arguments there.
Great video.
Happy Birthday Dan. Good to see you've made a mess of LEO, again.
I just don't get how these people can see things so differently than they rest of us & continue to make the flimsiest piece of so-called data into evidence.
Too much time on their hands.
They just want to feel super smart and special, bless their little hearts ❤️
Too much time on their hands, and not enough brains in their heads.
Happy birthday Dan. I suggest LEO's employers look at his abilities. Heavy machinery maybe discouraged considering his lack of basic mechanics.
Happy Birthday Dan, I'm so glad to have been around since you started this channel. You and the other flatard busters have been a huge role in my 7 year sobriety so thank you for that brother. Much love and respect from Indiana, USA.
Ok Dan, its 2:00 am Friday, November 19, 2021. We are in the middle of an almost full lunar eclipse. How do the Flat Earthers explain that one. Stupid math is still stupid math. You can count oranges and complain you don't have enough pieces of pizza to eat.
I guess 'They' have put a big Cover over the Moon to keep up the Lie
🌞🌏🌑🥰
Lol you said it better than I did but what really sucks is that I missed it 😭😭🤬
Missed it here in Alabama. But then, there was cloud cover. As usual.
@@shadowhunter0 ,
It's raining here... unless people invent cloud filters...
The moon was due west just before sunrise here (5:20 EST in Ohio) and I thought it was strange that the bottom right quarter was dark (with a curved shadow). It didnt seem normal and it dawned on me this could be a lunar eclipse.
"I'm going to show you some globe mathematics". Proceeds to type numbers into a web-based horizon calculator.
Doesn't count, genius...
Happy Birthday SciMan! I just finished binge-watching every video on your channel! Keep up the good work!
Happy birthday Dan!
Yeah LEO should take that video down. He's planning on misusing equipment on an active jobsite and recording while occupying the operator seat. That's considered a safety infraction worthy of termination.
This man is a running superhero!
So far he’s run 39 times around the sun, and there’s no sign of slowing down! XO
Happy birthday Dan. A whole video of yellow earth observers fails. I'm looking forward to this one
I wonder what technology the soviet special effects department used back in the 80's to fake the MIR-footage.
The poor soul who had to render the data in real time using nothing but a pocket calculator - an absolute gemius!
Alien tech recovered from Tunguska in 1908 did all the rendering.
I am loving when flerfs say things like, destroy, prove, debunk (absolutely), it makes it much more fun when they fall FLAT on their faces.
Level Earth Observer trying to use the Earth Curve Calculator is just hilarious. Pure comedy gold!!
Unfortunately I doubt Leo will ever not be a flat earther due to how smart he thinks he is and doesn't want to listen to anyone/thing else
And calls any knowledge he can't comprehend 'mumbo jumbo'
I’ve found 2 things that flat earthers dont seem to understand (they are quite related)
1. The size of the earth (look at literally any visualisation of the earth made by a flat earther)
2. Literally anything regarding rotation
Well happy birthiversary Dan, ya don't look a day over 35.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣, this is what watching FE Videos does to you
Happy birthday dude! Always loved this channel, it's a real breath of fresh air in the modern world of conspiracy and stupidity.
Happy Birthday Dan! That’s pretty cool, my name is also Dan and I turned 39 last May. I know you hear this all the time but your doing great work, I love the channel!
Love the videos Dan!! I always look forward to Tuesdays and Fridays for the new uploads.
Was this the closest we got to see LEO's face? He tried really hard to hide it in the reflection, almost slipped up.
ps. happy birthday Dan.
Is the first guy a James Bond villain? “And I’m only going to use it for a scientific experiment to annihilate the globe!” 😅🤣
They love talking about CGI without giving an indepth analysis of CG artifacts, errors, etc
And even recreating it themselves
And they don't seem to be bothered by the fact that a P900 and P1000 actually use a kind of CGI technology to produce a picture!
It's apparently so easy to do, but they can't replicate it.
@@M4RC90 flerfers:"flat earth is so obvious"
Also flerfers:"You need to be advanced to understand flat earth, and we are very smart so we do"
Happy Birthday! Thanks for all the gifts you have given us.
The crane operator could do some ball drops to test the rotating earth. A plumb bob would hang straight down, but a dropped ball should land just a bit to the west [no, east], shouldn't it, on a rotating earth. Not enough to see, but he could claim that proves there is no spin.
As always, the fact there is an horizon line shows the earth is a globe. A flat earth would just fade out into a distant blur.
Not sure it would though. A dropped ball still has the same eastward momentum as when it was being held up. Are you looking for Coriolis effect?
@@Robert08010 Yes, I am referring to the Coriolis Effect. A ball that is dropped still has the momentum it started with, but it is actually moving slightly faster than the ground below it.
See, it relates to distance from the axis of the earth. The surface of the earth at the equator is moving eastward at about 1,000 miles per hour, due to the earth's rotation. The top of the crane, though, is moving at, say, 1,001 miles per hour, because it is making a bigger circle - speed wildly exaggerated for illustration - as it is further from the axis.
Therefore a dropped ball is going to curve as it descends. That is called the Coriolis effect, and that was what I was referring to, yes.
And I said "west" earlier, which is backwards.
I think I've got to the point where I'd be happier with just SCD's commentary and all the LEO stuff editied out completely.
Happy birthday Dan! A great day to see another flat earth compilation. Didn't realize LEO had that much to fill one video though. Wow no wonder he had a whole episode amazing how wrong he can be.
Happy birthday Dan! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Imagine failing so much, that you get your own dedicated compilation.
By 11.40 he's literally said it 3 times, yes, it's below you! Come on LEO, you can do this. And surely, if the earth was flat, wouldn't they see the same horizon? Is there a horizon on a flat earth?
That always makes me laugh. Every time a flat earther talks about the horizon they are acknowledging that the earth is not flat. On a flat earth there can be no horizon. On a flat earth you should be able to stand on the west coast of Ireland and point a decent telescope west and see America yet for some bizarre unexplained reason we can't. Should be pretty simple what with water finding its own level etc.
oh ,their BEST answer is that some BS like "limitations of our eyes" prevents us from seeing very far.
to which i retort, "then how come we can see STARS just above the horizon? and don't you keep saying 'earth is flat because WE SEE TOO FAR'?!"

I was very confused when he was like "the debris flew straight through it!" Then it just was between the capsule and a camera then you pointed out he was trying to imply the object was massive and not part of the mechanism that released the capsule where you see like 7 other objects right after release
Happy birthday SciManDan from Colorado!
Congrats Dan! Keep up the good work. Love your videos!
Happy Birthday Dan!!
Thanks a lot for making these amazing vids, I really love your work
As a geologist I’m surprised that nobody has ever asked a flat earther their opinion about PLATE TECTONICS. It would be also interesting to see what they think about the fact the geophysicist can image the entire planet using seismic waves.
Those facts and logic you just stated can be countered by flat Earthers sticking their fingers in their ears and saying "nuh uh!".
@@artgutierrez6568 yeah I know and I don’t hope to change their mind, but it would be fun just to see what they come up with. I would like also to point out that if they don’t accept Plate Tectonics they have to inscribe myself and thousands of others geophysicist and geologists to the conspiracy ranks.
@@lucaskin1 "plate tectonics are fake", "you are indoctrinated", "you are a paid shill", you know... The usual flerf cop-outs when facts and logic slap them in the face.
Wikiquote: Plate tectonics is the "generally accepted" "scientific" "theory" bla bla etc...
Another stupid THEORY. Ask me please whats my opinion about this bullshit!
I am shure, and i am a geologist in my imagination, i can image the entire planet
using seismic waves as flat as it is!
You proofed that you are a very special idiot! But follow always ShitmanDan and you
are not alone in your round world of stupidity!
@@tiloraber627 Are you for real?
Regarding the space debris: If it really was space debris, it would be travelling so fast, you wouldn't be able to see it. Stuff don't really orbit at 5 km/h...
Just by guessing, the actual hieght on the position of felix's balloon in the diagram would be roughly 3k to 4k miles above the surface. When in actuality 38 miles, the height of the jump, would be around the "ankles" on the stick figure.
🤔Scale is not a friend of the FE
0.6 percent of the earth diameter more or less, if you try to draw it at the scale of his earth, it wouldn't even reacht the ankle of the stick figure
Happy birthday Dan.
I Hope everyone else enjoyed that flat earth eclipse the other night.
Yes I enjoyed it. I even saw the shadow of the elephants standing on the back of the turtle that holds up the flat earth.
I love when they make our points for us. He's literally complaining aboit how you can see further if you're higher up
Congratulations LEO! All your hard work has finally paid off and you are getting the recognition you deserve.
Happy birthday Dan! 😀
