      That's the rhetorical trick. Oakley does it well. He asks the question to sound reasonable. Then he waits for the response, and then he cuts them off sounding smarmy and superior. That way the audience thinks he must have a clever point.
      Uuuugh. Some of these cult leaders would just talk incessantly. Non-stop, no pause. The pause and allowing for a response (that you'll interrupt) gives a very important effect. It gives the semblance like its an actual conversation.

    Mythbusters did a wonderful segment about the conservation of momentum. They tested the age-old question of what would happen if you were on a train going the speed of a bullet and then shot a bullet backwards.
    They tested it by making an air cannon that they put on the back of a truck, loaded with a ball and then matched the cannon's muzzle velocity with the vehicle, shooting the ball backwards at the same speed the truck was going forwards.
    The ball dropped straight down, as it was carried forward by the car and backward by the cannon at the exact same speed.

    Hi Dan. The two oil rigs are offshore from the Bifarb construction yard at Methil, on the Fife coast, and are most certainly not miles apart. Rigs are often found in this location after construction, during refurbishment, or being stored due to a downturn in production. They are certainly not operational if that's what Dean is trying to suggest. There is no oil in the Firth of Forth.
    The "mountains" Dean alludes to are in fact the Lammermuir Hills, in East Lothian, and not one of them comes anywhere near qualifying as a mountain. And strangely enough, in Dean's video you can't make out the towns of Port Seton, Cockenzie, and Prestonpans, which stretch along the East Lothian coast, making almost a continual line of buildings. Indeed, you can't even make out the town of Tranent, about 2 miles south of the coast and on a higher elevation.
    I see Dean must have read my previous comments, and for once has included the Isle of May, right at the mouth of the Firth of Forth. Unfortunately for Dean, the image of it has a great deal of refraction, which is why it appears to be floating above the water.

      So while your eyes are incapable of lying to you, your brain makes a convincing argument for what 'should' be there. Just a shame flerf arguments aren't convincing since we have the facts that disprove them.

I grant you that perhaps that particular ship has a different hull design to the others in the video, but it's not like my assumption of similar hull designs of similar ships is any less spurious than his random rangefinding.

    I'm here because last weekend I was at the beach where I saw a guy who had put up banners claiming that the earth is flat, with some diagrams trying to explain why. I had no clue that there was a flat earth community and thought it was a joke. I decided to look this up and was flabbergasted to see that the belief in a flat earth does indeed exist. This led me to this channel and I have been watching SciManDan's videos all week! I've noticed that even after the advances in science and technology, these flat earthers demonstrate such a high level of personal incredulity (a term I have encountered so many times this past week) to conclude that the science cannot possibly be real and offer their own tin foil hat explanations with full-blown confidence. So much respect to SciManDan for stepping in to show the errors of their ways. I have learnt so much too and have a much better understanding of this beautiful globe we live on!

Once an object is detached from the rotating body, angular momentum of the object goes away and it follows a straight line.

    I remember when I was around 8 years old I first learned how conservation of momentum worked (although I didn't know it was called that at the time). While I was riding in an RV or a van going 70mph I tried jumping in the air because I thought I would go flying to the back of the vehicle, which obviously didn't happen. So, I wondered how it was possible to land right in the same place each time even though I was independent of the fast moving vehicle, I thought about it for a while and eventually had a sorta "eureka" moment when I understood why that happened. Anyways, I'm just shocked that someone less than 10 years old can understand how conservation of momentum works on his own but full grown adult flat earthers STILL can't understand it even with all the information they need to know about it being right at their fingertips

    The bit with Nathan Oakley: Both of them were stuck in an Abbot and Costello "Who's on first?" joke. Brownian motion and atoms randomly leaving the Earth's atmosphere are not the same as humans leaving the Earth's atmosphere. Entropy is poorly explained (for example the "order" vs "disorder", glass breaking, etc. analogies are terrible) by scientists and poorly understood by everybody else and abused by Nathan here and Creationists elsewhere. Colloquially speaking "order" can form in the absence of energy, i.e., hexagonal ice crystals, and glass can form naturally in the presence of energy, i.e., obsidian. Entropy should be explained in terms of probabilities, what is more likely given Brownian motion, etc. Also when people talk about entropy of gasses they forget to mention gravity exist which for gasses has the opposite effect of entropy.

    My experience on the water, when you zoom in on the horizon and see 'waves' like those at 8:23 where he's zoomed into a far away island are indication of really bad refraction at the water's surface. You can see this even with just a decent pair of binoculars.

      Hallvard Paulsen - the location of the moon and the sun, inside or outside the container, is wholly dependent on which side of the bed they fall out of. Unless, of course, they live in a car. Then, it is dependent on which side of the car they crawl out of.
      It could also be due to the fact that they forget what lies they told previously.

      It's inside if they're arguing that it has to be close by, but outside if they're arguing that we couldn't have gone there. It's similar to perspective and refraction: two phenomena poorly-understood by flerfs, which behave in whatever way is required to support the claim they're making at the time.
