"purveyor of fine manures" I gotta try and remember that one.🤣
You know the origin of the word "Disco", don't you? Just look at the famous poster of John Travolta posing for _Saturday Night Fever_ and imagine him saying "Dis go here, an' dis go dere!"
Let's look at these supposed "disco ball reflected lights":
1. They rise and set above/below the horizon
2. They rise and set at different angles above/below the horizon depending on your latitude. For instance, at the North Pole, they never rise or set above/below the horizon, at the Equator they rise and set perpendicular to the horizon and at the South Pole, they never rise or set above/below the horizon.
3. In the Northern Hemisphere, they rotate in a counter-clockwise direction and in the Southern Hemisphere, they rotate in a clockwise direction.
Wow! These disco ball reflected lights will really warp your mind!
Interesting that the flerf featured in the video uses a disco ball...a 'globe like' object to "model" a "flat" earth. Cognitive dissonance at its best!
Thinking the world is flat is like thinking Grease is a documentary.
No, "Space Quest" was a documentary. Get your facts straight.

"You spin me right round..." wait! did we get to the bottom of what was spinning?
A couple of other points he overlooked...
1 - Polaris isn't a single star, it's a triple star system which looks like a single star to the naked eye. A decent telescope will separate them, and the same applies to lots of other stars.
2 - The stars aren't "fixed". There are several distinct and measurable movements - stellar parallax, stellar aberration and proper motion - which need to be explained.
If you want to do flashbacks, may I suggest a revisit of Mage 2? I think that should be revisited at least once a year.
It WAS such a biggie. It was worth mentioning twice.
I like the red dwarf reference

(It's a Science Fiction movie, after all!)
Look Who’s Flerfing Now!
My head hurts, and not just from the face palm.
Even Pablo left.
There's weird and then there's this.
Great video 👍
So he believes that a the stars are globes, but the earth is flat?
I have to laugh, he says the magnetic North Pole but, where’s the South Pole on a flat earth??…all magnets have north and south poles…..perhaps the earth isn’t flat after all me thinks 🤣😂🥴
So, the light source to illuminate the mirror ball would need to be flat, like the Earth, emitting light intermittently to make the stars flash and twinkle... Sort of like a floor with a grid of lighted tiles in bright colors... I'm sure we can DISCOver the answer! 🕺💃
I love how you include all the H²G² references in your videos all the time.
Well, that was.....hm, how should I put it.... Disco-ntinued
Someone named Dave….allegedly said, “hold my recycled beer”.
Technically he didn't say "dance floor" I think he said "Dan's floor".
True and it may be covered with soil and salty fluids...
As flerfers go, this guy wasnt even trying. I have no idea of what hes even trying to imagine.
You just have to wonder how high these guys were....
05:25 That's very generous to call his brain farting actual ideas.
Saturday Flat Never
John Travollta flies aeroplanes. He KNOWS that the Earth isn't flat, even when he's dancing to disco.
I was thinking the exact same thing. 😂
@@gezzarandom Two for two, then.
It is very hard to point out to many flat earthers, where they go wrong. The reason being they don't even get as far as being wrong.
This palm I just got to my face felt a wholeta better after seeing someones dancing with the stars, literally. I mean apparently. With the stars or in the stars.. who knows.
You should be dancing!!!!! 🎵🎵🎶🎶🎵🎵🎶🎶
Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive!
I can never hear Stayin' Alive without thinking of the scene in Airplane with it in.
You and Blue Marble have got to stop making Flerfs think it is a challenge to be the dumbest!
It is. It's called THE TOP LEFT.😂
The only reason that Polaris is sitting up there in the first place is because it was nailed there!
A nit pick:. As of last year the N magnetic pole was only 216 NM from the geographic pole. It'moving very quickly currently.
"It'moving"? Just saying.
From what I can see the magnetic north pole is drifting towards Russia, passing close to the rotational polar axis. It's a Ruskie plot to steal our magnetic north pole I tells ya! 😉
"One does feel a churl coming on." My favorite quote since the first time I heard it quite awhole back. 😄😁🙂❤❤👏🏼👏🏼🖖🏼🙂
Purveyor of fine manures? Would that be male bovine feces?
Oh, and I love that special paper, AND you do a fine Travolta, Mr. S!
Thank you!!!
Hmm, stars are light spots on a dome? I can work with that. Celestial navigation includes a nice formula of distance from GP = Zenith angle times 60 Nautical Miles. That has the implication that if you are 60 NM from the GP of a star it is at a zenith angle of 1 degree. At the GP it has a zenith angle of 0 degrees. That gives us two angles and 1 side of a right angle triangle! The height of EVERY celestial object used by Celestial Navigation is therefore about 3438 NM or 6367 km or 3956 standard miles. The town of Ushuaia in Argentina is 54.8019 S or 8,688 NM or 16,090 km or 9,998 standard miles from the North Pole. So the flat Earth is at least 20,000 standard miles across, and at every point over that huge expanse the stars, Sun & Moon are at a constant height. That sounds more like a ceiling than a dome to me. A circle on a flat ceiling looks like an ellipse when seen from the side, yet celestial pole centered star trails are always circles no matter where you capture them. So no ceiling and the Earth is NOT flat.
Having modelled a flat Earth with distortion for Zenith angle x 60NM to work I found to my horror that the view did not look massively distorted from reality in the Northern hemisphere. There are distortions but they didn't look that obvious. After much double checking I realised I had missed something important. The days were noticeably shorter. On the Equator at the Equinox they would get just 8 hours! At the Equinox my location would be short by 1 hour 20 minutes from the about 12 hours we get in reality.
The Southern hemisphere screwed up my view calculations as the results looked stupid. Still day length can be calculated as the Sun will be at the horizon when 5400 NM away -- 90 x 60 = 5400. So with location and Sun distances from the North pole the day length can be calculated with the help of a triangle calculator to get the location - North Pole - Sun angle. Sydney at 33 S on the Equinox would get a paltry 6 hours 15 minutes. McMurdo in Antarctica would get a tiny 2 hours 50 minutes. The December solstice doesn't help any. Sydney would get just 5 hours 56 minutes instead of the more than 14 hours I have witnessed.
The end was the best watching Mr and Mrs S bust some moves :)
That's a new one... we live on a dance floor... lol
So, that’s what the “special paper” is for? Boy, have I been using it wrong! 😬
As Jesse peterson says “Amazing!”
Why did the Maker of the Flat Earth bother to make the stars move? Why did it even make the stars appear? What are the stars for? (Obviously, so that humans could use them and lots of math to navigate poorly for about 200 years. (Stationary stars would be really easy to navigate by.))
Why did the Flat-Earth Maker make the Sun move? Why not just switch it off at night? Why not make it always day time? (Obviously, so humans could see the stars to navigate by.)
Seriously, a stationary sun, a fixed moon, and a scattering of daylight stars on the dome, and navigation would be a doddle.
As I said elsewhere, I am convinced a potato has more intelligence than a flat earther.
Thanks for the flashback and your notes on special paper.
Hi Judy! Amazing notepaper... perforated both ends!
Crispy little chuff nugget? You got a sub for that!
You got the moves.
Thanks for that.

If that's Mrs Sensible in that last bit, well, all I can say is congratulations!
My eldest daughter at her wedding!
@@MrSensibleHistoric Well then, given the only information I have about her, which is what I see in the video, she seems lovely.
Thank you.

Can't you see we need a hand.

Naming your flat earth theory after John Travolta, is maybe not the wisest move since he is a qualified pilot who knows the earth is a globe. 😂
2:42 there was one word that sums this fool up........"california", after hearing that i switched off.
The magnetic North Pole moves around in relation to the geographical or "true" North Pole. That's why there's magnetic variation, which you need to take into account if you want to take accurate compass bearings. The magnetic variation changes not only over time but also according to where you are on the earth. At the moment it's quite small, in some places so small that you can ignore it for many practical purposes. But 50 years ago it was very significant, so you have to make sure you have up to date information.
Polaris is not "fixed", it moves (as we see it) in a small circle around the "true" or geographical North Pole.
So that's two "Norths" we have -"true" North and magnetic North. They are not the same. But when you are working with maps, there's a third North. It's called grid North, the direction to which the Northern ends of the map's grid lines point. Why is that not the same as "true" North? Oh ... umm ... could it possibly have something to do with the fact that a map is a flat, 2D, projection of a not-flat, 3D, earth? Hmmm...
I learned all this in geography when I was 11. Here's a simple explanation for kids. No, I was never in the Scouts (YUK! Grrr!), but at least they do teach some useful things. The problem with them is all the god n' queen stuff, for which I have no time at all. But for land skills, navigation and map reading they have it right here, and neither god nor the queen get a mention..

You can dance if you want to...
No filament
I want to hear Donna Summer now! Disco on!
Me too!
So... you're saying that SkyDaddy made the Flat Earth while ‘Manhattan Skyline’ was on?
So after falling out of my chair three time before I got t the end of this one, oh by the way Nice moves there in the end clip Sir! I went into the garage and looked at the ancient disco ball that for some damn reason I have and thought about what this nut case said, and walked away laughing again. Peace
😁👍🙄
are you already back from your trip? i thought you were gonna come back on saturday?
Leave tomorrow, Saturday and back Sunday.
Am I going deaf I could swear he said filament
🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺😱🌎😂
2:51 well, you can't deny that it is a sphere, and it is shiny. :-)
5:19 i'm a bit rusty, so help me out here. did Z or trillian say that? it was Z, wasn't it?
7:39 LOL!
Zaphod!
I’m sorry, Mr. S. I know you’ve tried hard. You really have. But you still haven’t been able to top the “Moon is giant wolf’s chewie” theory. This one comes relatively close; but it just doesn’t compare.
And if the stars are “Fixed,” how are they rotating? “Fixed” and “Rotating” are two different things...very different. “Fixed,” means “Not moving.” “Rotating,” means moving in a circular motion. They can’t do both. I’m sorry; but it just can’t.
lol
Sure we've seen the firmament! It's that blue thing we call the sky! Why else would it be blue?
😂
Yes I have heard this as an actual argument by flatties 😂
🤦♂️
Wait, wait, wait. I thought I knew all the gay subspecies. And now I find out there is a gay flat earther. That must be the rarest of them all. Probably also a Trump supporter.
EISF is a moron.
Very high iq expert smart flerfs........

You are so full of crap . Ball Earthers have no explanation for this simple demonstration showing how absurd the Ball Earth is.
