    • @baipattu4972
      @baipattu4972 8 лет назад +8

      The time in your 'time zone' remains the same no matter how tall a building is. The people in the upper floors would experience sunrise and sunset at a different time than people on the ground, but they all still share the same "time zone".

    • @_GatoradeMeBitch
      @_GatoradeMeBitch 8 лет назад +3

      BAI PATTU Yes, though theorically a tall enough building would experience the sunrise and set entirely different from the location of the base of the building, and therefore there could be timezones with height too.

    • @baipattu4972
      @baipattu4972 8 лет назад +5

      +Fuckification Most time zones differ by 30 mins. People at the top of burj khalifa experience sunset 2 mins after people at the base. To experience the sunset 30 mins after the base the building would have to be 15 times its current height. It currently stands at 2722 ft. 15 times that would be 40,830 ft. Commercial airliners cruise at 36,000 ft. LOL

      Why would it? First all flat earthers believe earth is round. Just not a sphere.
      Also if you only need your body size to see two sunsets that proves that it doesn't need to be a globe.
      Two sun sets can be seen on a flat earth.
      It's due to perspective not curvature.
