Do you believe that the earth is flat?

Everyone is no stranger to the "Diping theory". In the past, they thought that it was just satirizing the monopoly of knowledge, or that happy people were working together, but in fact, some people were trying to prove that the earth was flat, even though all kinds of attempts were repeatedly punched in the face.

The documentary Behind The Curve introduces several such supporters of "Diping Theory". For example, the most famous Mark Sargent:

Mark Sargent believes that the reason why people think the earth is a ball is mainly because it is brainwashed by science. When you are young, let you see the globe and show you the space map, you naturally think that the earth is round. But this information is officially monopolized, and you can't verify it yourself without a spaceship.

In the brain construction of modern "Diping theory", the earth is a plane and the sky is like a lid.

The ground will not rotate, the sun and the moon are like a "light bulb", alternating between the sun and the moon, used to illuminate the ground.

The earth is surrounded by glaciers, and the so-called South Pole is a wall of ice more than 60 meters high, which has become a barrier to protect the interior from falling into the universe.

When asked how to prove that the earth is flat, Mark Sargent pointed out a key point, that is, whether the earth's curve exists or not.

For example, he thinks he can see the buildings across the coast from Seattle, but if the earth is round, he should not be able to see it because it is not on a horizontal plane.

Seeing is believing, I was almost convinced by him.

In fact, I am a little familiar with this statement.

Because when I was a child, I encountered a similar problem at school, that is, if I looked at the incoming sailboat at the seaside, I would always see the mast first and then the hull.

But it just proves that the earth is a sphere.

In addition, Mark Sargent will also be surprised by the eclipse, but this is obviously not in line with the "horizon theory" conjecture, so he believes that the eclipse is just a dome display system, including that people can see Jupiter on Earth.

The sky is the dome of Truman World, and the universe is a show.

When he heard the little brother next to him smiled, he probably almost believed it.

In addition to Mark Sargent, many people are looking for strong evidence to support the Diping theory.

Among them, the elder brother named Jeran Campanella appears to be more professional. He thinks that science is the best way to know the truth.

It sounds reasonable to beat science with science. In order to test his idea, he and his partner once did an experiment to test the rotation of the earth.

According to the idea of "Diping Theory", the earth is not only flat but also does not rotate. And if the earth rotates once every 24 hours, that means it rotates 15 degrees an hour:

Then install a gyroscope on the earth, it is supposed to drift.

So testing it with a gyroscope will prove the lie about the earth's rotation.

So they contacted their water friends and bought a more accurate laser gyroscope for testing for $20, 000, which cost about 130000 yuan at the current exchange rate. Interestingly, the experiment went well, and they found that the drift did exist, that is, the sphere was indeed spinning.

At one point, the scene was very awkward, and the elder brother who took part in the experiment recalled it with this expression at that time:

But proponents of the theory of horizon obviously cannot accept this result, so there is a new conjecture that the earth itself does not rotate and that the gyroscope is affected by the sky, that is, the sky is spinning.

So they conducted another isolation test, trying to shield the influence of the sky, and failed. But they still put down their harsh words and said they would continue to try.

The gyroscope could not be detected, and Diping said supporters had moved to a new track and wanted to try the laser.

The experiment was led by brother Jeran Campanella, who planned to test whether the ground was curved on a canal.

In the experimental scenario, the canal is flat and has no slope, and the distance tested is more than 6000 meters. They want to set three poles at this distance, and then send a laser through the three poles to observe the position of the laser on the pole.

According to the assumption of "the theory of horizon", if the ground is flat, then the height of the three points on the pole must be the same.

If the earth is round, then the height should be different.

When the plan was ready, they began to conduct a formal test.

But the experiment was not successful because the beam was so large that a large mass of light would cover the whole target, and there was no difference in position at all.

Fortunately, Jeran has a backup experiment, which changes the test method and uses light to test the horizontal height.

In the experiment, a light source needs to be emitted from one direction, and if it can be received by people at the same height after penetrating two boards, it means that the earth is flat.

However, if it is not received, the light source needs to be raised to the height before it can catch the light, indicating that the earth has a curve.

And the test results went well.

When the light remained in the same position, Jeran did not receive the incoming beam, which made him a little embarrassed.

So Jeran ordered the beam to be raised:

As a result, a beam of light was captured on his machine:

Jeran said: 6.

Dude, are you sure you're not the mole?

After so many efforts, the earth is still round, so is the "Diping theory" self-defeating?

Supporters of the Diping theory have not answered this question, but in fact there is already an answer, that is, the number of people who believe in the "Diping theory" is still increasing.

From sporadic discussions at first, to now they can hold high-profile parties, and even some celebrities have become such clever supporters that tickets for parties with high prices can be snapped up:

Various types of goods emerge as the times require, such as models, clothing, toy props and so on.

It is also more and more like a traffic password on the Internet, maybe it doesn't matter what the earth is like, what is important is that there is an entry point that can be used to doubt everything and to distinguish different people.

So why can't the earth be a loaf of bread?
