Man to Prove Earth is Flat...
...in his own homemade rocket.
I predict a most magnificent fail. But, if he does manage to survive his trip, I look forward to reading about his reaction.

If he does not, as the article cites him as saying, believe in science; then how exactly did he create a rocket-powered craft? Unicorn farts?

Those are known to be high in anti-matter... if they could find a way to safely bring the Unicorn farts and Narwhal dorsal fins to a 1.2748:1 ratio without throwing the Yeti wishes out sync, it just might be possible.Mikey wrote:If he does not, as the article cites him as saying, believe in science; then how exactly did he create a rocket-powered craft?

Just one problem with that... Narwhals don't have dorsal fins. Just a series of bumps along their tails.Bryan Moore wrote:Those are known to be high in anti-matter... if they could find a way to safely bring the Unicorn farts and Narwhal dorsal fins to a 1.2748:1 ratio without throwing the Yeti wishes out sync, it just might be possible.Mikey wrote:If he does not, as the article cites him as saying, believe in science; then how exactly did he create a rocket-powered craft?

Yes, because that's the issue with synchronizing the Yeti wishes.Varthikes wrote:Just one problem with that... Narwhals don't have dorsal fins.

So has he killed launched himself yet?

Re: Man to Prove Earth is Flat...
He failed.
He still lives, but he failed to launch. The reasons seem to vary. The above article mentions technical problems. Another article mentions he's trying to raise more money for other necessary equipment--like a space suit.
In the meantime, he's going to be suing some government officials for unknown reasons. Maybe he's blaming his technical problems on a government conspiracy?

Failed? How extraordinary!
I'm guessing he's suing because Trump stuck a potato up his exhaust. That's an old trick.

Re: Man to Prove Earth is Flat...
Wait... a homemade rocket, built by a guy who doesn’t believe in science, failed? Next I suppose you’ll want me to believe that the Pope is Catholic.
