Of course, they're wrong. Here, I explain why.

The first 200 of you will get 20% off Brilliant’s annual premium subscription.Flat Earthers obviously deny the heliocentric model of the Solar system. Here's how we know its scale and shape, and how you can verify it using technology from the 16th century... putting you 2000 years ahead of flerfs. Also, we have a look at how the shape of the Solar system is perfectly explained by gravity, and this little thing called Kepler's third law; yet more easily verifiable science that flers have to deny to maintain their delusions.This video was sponsored by Brilliant.My Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/martymer81If you don't like Patreon, you can also make donations to martymer81(at)gmail.com via Paypal!My Twitter: @MartymerM81

Of course, in reality, density (or density differential) alone won't make anything fall.

Measuring the Distances to the Sun and the Moon | FLERFPRATT 6 Martymer 81 2022-12-21 | This time, we take on the flat-earthers' claim that the Sun and the Moon are a mere 3,000 miles away by demonstrating how the parallax method can be used to actually measure the distances to them. Spoiler alert: the flers are wrong by quite a few orders of magnitude. A version of this video was uploaded earlier, but with an error in one of the graphics.

On Flerf Stupidity | FLERFPRATT 3 Martymer 81 2021-12-30 | Flat Earthers tend to respond to accusations of being stupid by saying that it's "globers" who are the stupid ones, since we "blindly accept what we're told." Flerfs are "good skeptics" who are "just questioning," and they think we are calling them stupid for doing so. However, to my knowledge, no one is calling them stupid for asking questions. Even a so-called stupid question like "if the Earth is round, why don't we fall off it?" is a good question if asked with an honest desire to learn, and that's the issue here: flerfs have no honest desire to learn. Therein lies the stupidity.My Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/martymer81 If you don't like Patreon, you can also make donations to martymer81(at)gmail.com via Paypal! My Twitter: @MartymerM81

Electric Gravity: Shockingly Bad Cosmology Martymer 81 2020-07-31 | Time to finally address the electric universe: a pseudoscientific model of cosmology according to which gravity does not exist, and everything we attribute to it is explained as a result of electromagnetic interactions. As I'm sure you'd expect, the only way to make this "work" is to make the explanations unfalsifiable, and to reject mainstream cosmology as a giant conspiracy. The more you know about general relativity and Big Bang cosmology, the more you'll need those facial protection oven mitts. In this video, I take a look at Wallace Thornhill's post on holoscience.com, where he explains why he thinks gravity is an electromagnetic phenomenon, and how he, who has no qualifications relevant to cosmology, can know that all those who do are wrong.
