    Why don't you travel near the ice wall edge and do one and upload it?

    would need government level money for an expedition like that, go look at the cost to get anywhere near Antarctica, and thats just a cruise

    the average peasant has no hope in hell

    My parents have been there on a cruise and their combined income is less than £70k a year.

    Set the camera off from the cruise boat and you're laughing. Just better hope the undercover cruise ship crew/undercover agents don't push you over the side.

    the average uk salary is about 20k a year, the average antarctic cruise price is about 15k, and how do you get the equipment to get onto the the ice and then survive a suicide mission, it cant be done by an individual who isnt born into wealth

    20k a year? That seems quite low

    its shockingly low, dark days in the "most advanced civilisation in history"

    obviously if you live in london its higher because living costs are ridiculously high so hard to really quantify a true average figure relative to living costs

    Cost? Seriosuly? So you and all the other flat earthers are all part of a group sharing similar beliefs and you could all work together to prove the existence of an ice ring surrounding the edge of a disc shaped planet by doing the balloon camera thing near the edge.........but the only thing holding you back is £15k?<laugh>

    Right I've solved it for you. You just need 1000 of you flat earthers to club together £15 plus the cost of the balloon camera to send one volunteer on the cruise to the Antarctic to launch the balloon, get the footage and blow the whole conspiracy wide open.

    In fact it's so obvious and easy I'm not really sure why you all haven't done that been already??????????

    Or even just one rich flat earther?

    maybe, we are splitting hairs anyway seen as the figure is skewed by the top 1% earnings

    4 in 5 new jobs created are averaging under 16k for 40 hours a week

    how bad must brexit be if people are worried about losing the pile of ****e they are currently served up, irrelevant anyway, wages are going down as is the value of fiat currency, thats a trend you should be more concerned about rather than the non existent rise in "global" temperatures

    Where has the rest of the sun gone?

    Sun.jpg

    If the horizon is just the limit the eye can see at a certain height why can we not see the whole sun if it is all at the same distance and height?

    think of the horzion as the convergence of the upper and lower halves of your sight, the point at which they meet, as an object moves beyond that point, the bottom of the object will vanish first leaving the rest still in the range of the upper half of your sight

    im not reinventing, its how vision works

    as shown below, the lower half appears to rise to the centre(eye level),while the upper half appears to fall to the centre, ie convergence

    this explains the sunrise and sunset, the sun is actually just moving towards us and away from us at a constant height, perspective creates the illusions of rising and setting
