GPS working in Antarctica: another Flat Earth claim bites the dust. @DearFrogPrince

Uploaded October 2020 | Updated September 2026, 3 days ago

Well, another Flat Earth claim: this time based on one forum post from 2015.

The post is basically the user saying that his or her Garmin GPS has no coverage after 60 degree south. Apparently this user did some search, but couldn’t find any such device.

From this, our Flat Earther draws the conclusion that there is no GPS coverage in Antarctica: thus, flat earth.

Super easy to debunk; but after that, we will also look at how GPS works; and then check the original video for more stupid claims. Enjoy.

GPS working in Antarctica: another Flat Earth claim bites the dust.

Flat Earth claim: Gravity is Magic; Newton not proven, and gravity explained by density/buoyancy

$Flat Earth and their claim: Science says Earth is Stationary; is it now? Science says its Stationary; Every scientific experiment has proven earth is completely stationary. The sun, moon and stars move around polar centre above us. Followed by research: North Star, Michelson-Morley, Sagnac Experiment and Airys Failure. Well, lets do it. After explaining the image, we will talk about all the experiments Flat-earthers mention, what the experiments were about, what they think it proved, and what it actually proved. Timecode is in this description. Enjoy.

$Did Flat Earth Believer response video prove my math incorrect for the photo of Isle of Man? A milestone for me: I got a response video from Exploring the Plane. Now, I was obviously excited for: well, a challenge. I am a nerd gamer; but what did vex me was that his response video was for my video that: well, in my opinion, my best work when it comes to absolute logic and math; pretty solid, I thought. It is based on this old photo; where you see the Blackpool tower; then Irish sea past that, and mountains from the distant Isle of Man. Exploring the Plane is responding to four such videos. Well, lets see what the video has to say. Spoiler: he didnt refute my math; but refuted refraction. Oh well. Note: sorry if you felt it was click-bait thumbnail. I did leave a hint though.
