If we consider the Earth as a FLAT plane and want to create a deceptive map that represents a globe, a commonly used technique is the azimuthal equidistant projection. This projection preserves accurate distances from a central point and projects the Earth's surface onto a flat plane. And it is100% possible. -- To create a deceptive globe map using the azimuthal equidistant projection, follow these steps: 1. Select a central point: Determine the point on the Earth's surface that will be the center of your map. This could be a specific location or a point of interest. 2. Place the globe on the flat plane: Position the globe on the flat plane with the chosen central point aligned with the center of the flat map. 3. Draw concentric circles: Draw concentric circles around the central point on the flat plane. Each circle represents a specific distance from the center and can be used to represent latitude lines. 4. Divide the circles into sections: Divide the circles into equal sections to represent longitude lines. The number of sections will depend on the level of detail you want to include. 5. Project the points: Take points on the globe's surface and project them onto the corresponding positions on the flat map. This projection should maintain the correct distances and directions from the central point. 6. Connect the projected points: Connect the projected points with lines to represent coastlines, borders, or any other features you want to include. So which version to believe now.. Flat or Globe? Or both are deceptive models! Hmmm!
@@infernogaming4671 Never be so confident. Confidence is like believe or disbelieve without knowledge, not good. I can provide you with an example that maintains accurate distances while still being visually deceptive. 😉 Here's an approach you can try: 1. Select a specific area: Choose a small region on the map that you want to represent deceptively. 2. Use an equal-area projection: Select an equal-area projection such as the Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area Projection or the Eckert IV Projection. These projections preserve the relative sizes of areas accurately, minimizing size distortions. 3. Adjust the shapes: Manipulate the shapes of land masses within the chosen region to create a visually deceptive effect. For example, you can stretch or compress certain areas to create the desired visual impact. 4. Preserve distances: While adjusting the shapes, ensure that the distances within the chosen region remain accurate. This can be achieved by maintaining consistent distances between key landmarks or reference points.
TEN Rules of flerfing : 1) Strawman the globe model in a desperate bid to manufacture a "gotcha". 2) NEVER, under any circumstances, talk about your positive claim that the earth is FLAT. 3) If pushed to do the above, pretend that you "claim nothing". 4) Learn to articulate the sounds “nu” and “huh” together in quick succession and use it whenever you need to deny reality (i.e, often). 5) Pre-emptively reject the answers to every question you ask. 6) Cherry pick parts of quotes that you think might help you, whilst pretending the rest never happened. 7) Perform a ‘flerf reset’ every morning, conveniently forgetting everything that was said to you the previous day. 8) Ignore the fact that, despite more than 10 years of social media flerfing, flat earth has advanced about as far as an asthmatic Ant with particularly heavy shopping. 9) Lie. 10) Lie more.
9) Say the earth is chasing the sun and the earth is spinning so fast at 1,000 mph chasing the sun at 66,666 mph rocketing through the galaxy at 500,000 mph while forgetting earth spins 15 degrees per hour and the earth orbits the sun less than 1 degree per day and the solar system takes 230 million+ years to orbit the milky way galaxy ONCE Edit: yes i took the assuming part out cuz i felt it wasnt needed. Edit 2: There was this flerfer i debated on my channel(deleted comments now due to circular reasoning and getting nowhere) T B. When i said that stars rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and rotate clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere, he said i was begging the question by saying hemisphere. And he thinks i think stars rotate west to east in the southern hemisphere. That guy is so lost…

@@vz7042 The flat map doesn't preserve distances. Look up flight times(and distances) between australia and south africa, or between south america and south africa. They are much smaller on a globe than in your wrong flat plane. This is assuming the central point is the North Pole, but it is true for any considered point.
@@vz7042 "5. Project the points: Take points on the globe's surface and project them onto the corresponding positions on the flat map.

Or both are deceptive models!" Globe: It. Just. Works!
@@carldawes4156 AE projection preserves azimuth and distance _from the centre._ If you choose the right spot in Spain as the centre, you can get North Island, New Zealand, wrapped all the way around the outside. I have that map, with a caption that "New Zealand is an energy field, created by all living things. It surroudns us, it penetrates us and it binds the galaxy together." I also have a zipped folder of AE maps with 333 km radii covering most of the land on Earth, linked in a video description. Video is called "Build your own flat Earth map," or something like that. The small areas shown on each map are pretty good matches for reality, as long as you don't mind dot cities and the simplified polygonal coastlines. I've been able to stick a whole line of them together into a pretty good map of the Greenwich Meridian from north of Scotland to south of Benin. Mapping the Pacific coast of the USA or the Tropic of Cancer would work alright, too, but any attempt to combine all the maps for Europe or Africa or Brazil or the contiguous 48 States or Alaska or China or Australia or India, let alone the whole Earth, requires a curved surface to line features up.

I think you meant 'wraps' not 'warps' because that would work. One thing to remember is there are no 'edges; where you depict them is arbitrary, it's just continuous. I found it can be a lot easier to sometimes just stop trying to visualize it and just think of it as how all the points are connected.
I met my first flat earther 2 days ago in the gym, and after I asked him why can't you see North Star from southern hemisphere, he just walked away and i burst into laughter, he doesn't come to the gym anymore.
I like to throw a curve ball at them. Instead of the popular map of the Flat Earth with the north pole in the center, tell them Antarctica is in the center. They hate this because it kills their model while being every bit as plausible as the one they prefer. If they argue, demand that they prove you wrong. They don't have any arguments aimed at disproving an alternate version of the Flat Earth. This model puts North America and Russia on the outer rim. Just as they're waffling trying to shut you up, explain that's why the USA and Russia have such large navies. To keep people away from the edge of the world. And they have plenty of nukes to stop anyone who tries. This is why the arms race. It was always a scam to keep people ignorant.
It's actually a brilliant thought that after over a hundred years of flat earth research, they're now finally ready to admit that the world curves. But only in one direction. Maybe a hundred years from now they'll take the next step, and evolve their theory to the point where the flat earth model is just a sphere. I bet they'll still be insisting that gravity isn't real.
Well, that's the whole point! In the flat earth world, there is no gravity. The whole world just sucks! That's what keeps everything firmly planted on the ground! 🤣😂
"This cylinder model is obviously wrong. Instead, I propose the obvious solution that anyone who does their own research would agree with. It's like a cylinder, except that the top and bottom are sorta pinched together to a point...and the equator sorta bulges out from the cylinder. This model explains all observations and is really just a flat plane that is sorta shaped similarly to an oblate spheroid in 4 dimensions!"
It's not only physics they don't understand, they already fail at totally basic geometry. As the point about the visibilitiy of Polaris and Sigma Octantis shows. That point alone essentially kills _every_ flat earth model.

It's absolutely stunning how flerfs can more easily believe an infinite flat endless loop fOuRtH diMeNsiOnAL scroll Earth than the (almost) spherical model that works in every way explaining every observable celestial phenomenon.
It's a mental illness. They know inside the earth is round. They feel special in their group when their IDEA is respected by others with the same illness. It's basically a place where life's losers can come tother and prop each other up against the people who fit in and are successful
Isn't it true that most of their models accept that celestial bodies as spheres but for some reason the Earth is the only one that's flat?!? Also, isn't the intersection of two cylinders just a sphere?
The second model is hilarious to me, since it is like they are almost there. Now they just need to figure out the north to south problem and come full circle to realize it was a globe the whole time
Okay, Dave, *here's* a working flat earth model! You just take that cylinder and close it off at the top and bottom - shrinking the distances more and more towards each end (pole) to correct for the Mercator projection. It's important that the scrunching together of the top & bottom (North & South Poles) be done so that the sides meet at those two points smoothly, sp it's flat where they meet. As a rule of thumb, keep the distance to the center of the cylinder (at a point halfway between North and South Poles) equal (±0.001%) at all points on the surface. And voilà: a working flat earth model! Of course, it's only flat, roughly, on small scales (distances under a kilometer), but it does explain *all* the phenomena you've described in your videos!
"What? It does not look like a globe at all! It's, um, an infinitely wrapping flat Earth model, like a combination of two perpendicular cylinders! Yes, there's a slight curve... I mean, not a curve, it's, uh, bending, yes, it's a bend. Not a curve. A bend. Totally different. Definitely not a globe though, nuh-uh!"
Flat earthers: "Im gonna make a perfect flat earth model that proves my point" (Draws swastika) "I just dont understand how they dont take us seriously"

Hyperborean Flat earthers are the best tbh, because they don't try to explain shit with god or convoluted pseudoscience, they just go "yeah, nazi aryan magic bitch"
That is assuming they behave a brain to speak. Though recent empirical evidence points to this not being possible, as easy math and geometry seems to be a problem even crows can solve
I gotta give them that, flerfs are a very creative bunch. The first model would be very interesting to explore in a game setting, or perhaps as the base world of a TTRPG campaign. Also, the 4D model was so close to getting the right answer. When you factor in the travel patterns North-South together with the East-West, you get the general topology of something that is uniformly round, also known as a sphere. A globe, if you will
Bro it’s not even a sphere or globe lmao according to your cult leaders in modern astronomy and nasa ….is a pear or a oblate spheroid Don’t know how it can be a pear and oblate spheroid …but that what world renowned astronomers Neil said the earth shape is ….all these years down in class rooms with perfectly round sphere globes and I find out in 2018 on ajoe Rogan short that it’s not a sphere or soccer ball shaped it’s tangerine shaped lol….somebody lying …sorry if alotta y’all to gullible and within your ego to see it …think a bit something ain’t true one way or another
As a fun literature exercise, we should all create our own fictional world ! The 4D model works, if you change from a cylinder to a sphere, and then you can drop a dimension, to simplify it. That "flat earth" model works ... oh.
Simple solution for the 4-D cylinder model: Pinch off the ends of the cylinder so that they form smooth arcs. You put Polaris way out in hyperspace and the Southern Cross way out in subspace. Voila. Problem solved. In fact... you don't even need four dimensions. You can safely eliminate one. But what to call this model? I mean, what do you call a 3-D shape that's round in every direction?
Or even simpler, use what physicist say: a 3-D shape (like a sphere). But it is big enough that for small objects at the surface (like people), you can use a 2-D shape (like a flat surface) that will be accurate enough for measurements small compared to the radius of curvature. (When distances get larger, those 2-D predictions will become increasingly inaccurate.)
I like how the flat earthers tried to come up with a model for flat earth, but to fix every issue they just ended up creating a flat plan that just magically behaves like a globe instead of an actual globe. W
Videos like this showcase one of the biggest hurdles with trying to debate a Flat Earther (beyond the fact that their ignorance far exceeds the patience anyone has): The entire community cannot agree on one model, so before you can even begin talking to someone you have to first establish what "their version" of the model looks and behaves like (lest you be branded intellectually dishonest or accused of strawmanning), which in itself automatically disproves the concept as a whole but obviously they won't listen to that.
Not helped by the way they just spout nonsense that is not even wrong. 2+2= 5, can be shown to be wrong. 2+2= a bag of potatoes is another matter entirely.
I remember reading about how children, during the first few months of development, are not able to understand that an object can still exist, even when it's out of view. This is why babies often cry when a parent walks out of the room, because in their minds, they think that the parent has stopped existing until they walk back into view. Although the specifics may be different, this same general and basic level of comprehension of the world and universe around us is very much like that of a flat earther.
"Is THIS your Flat Earth Model?"; "No, that is ridiculous"; "What about THIS one?"; "HAHAHA!! Preposterous!"; "This one?"; "Not even CLOSE!!; - its so easy to be a flat earther, YOU guys do all the work and i just sit back denying everything. No effort needed...
I've said this in response to "Why are there no stars in the Apollo Moon pictures", but it applies here too. That is, if you took a camera that had manual settings, and put those settings where they need to be for daytime pictures (like they would have done on the bright surface of the Moon), and then took a picture of the sky on the darkest nights full of stars that you can see with your naked eye, the ppicture you end up with would have no stars in it -- or possibly only a couple of the brightest -- even though the sky was full of stars when you looked with your eyes.
I always get a kick out of flerfs coming up with all sorts of models that don't work when you examine them more closely, and that disagree and contradict each other. Some of them talk about everything being geocentric, but then they want to ignore what one of the biggest advocates of geocentrism, Ptolemy, stated about the earth. Here is a translation of what Ptolemy thousands of years ago stated about the earth (and you'll see why they want to ignore it): 4. That Also the Earth, Taken as A Whole, is Sensibly Spherical Now, that also the earth taken as a whole is sensibly spherical, we could most likely think out in this way. For again it is possible to see that the sun and moon and the other stars do not rise and set at the same time for every observer on the earth, but always earlier for those living towards the orient and later for those living towards the occident. For we find that the phenomena of eclipses taking place at the same time, especially those of the moon, are not recorded at the same hours for everyone―that is, relatively to equal intervals of time from noon; but we always find later hours recorded for observers towards the orient than for those towards the occident. And since the differences in the hours is found to be proportional to the distances between the places, one would reasonably suppose the surface of the earth spherical, with the result that the general uniformity of curvature would assure every part's covering those following it proportionately. But this would not happen if the figure were any other, as can be seen from the following considerations. For, if it were concave, the rising stars would appear first to people towards the occident; and if it were flat, the stars would rise and set for all people together and at the same time; and if it were a pyramid, a cube, or any other polygonal figure, they would again appear at the same time for all observers on the same straight line. But none of these things appears to happen. It is further clear that it could not be cylindrical with the curved surface turned to the risings and settings and the plane bases to the poles of the universe, which some think more plausible. For then never would any of the stars be always visible to any of the inhabitants of the curved surface, but either all the stars would both rise and set for observers or the same stars for an equal distance from either of the poles would always be invisible to all observers. Yet the more we advance towards the north pole, the more the southern stars are hidden and the northern stars appear. So it is clear that here the curvature of the earth covering parts uniformly in oblique directions proves its spherical form on every side. Again, whenever we sail towards mountains or any high places from whatever angle and in whatever direction, we see their bulk little by little increasing as if they were arising from the sea, whereas before they seemed submerged because of the curvature of the water's surface. (Ptolemy, Almagest, Book 1, chapter 4.)
It's because Flat Earthers don't actually care about facts. Facts are subservient to what they see as "Truth" AKA the Bibical creation story. To them, facts and mathematics are simply things that can be manipulated, used, fabricated, and thrown away without a second thought. The end justifies the means. Which is why you never encounter honest Flat Earthers, why they seem so impervious to reason, and why they will happily use syncretic beliefs (ancient aliens, pseudo-ancient religions, etc.) that further their agenda. They're also obsessed with Armageddon. The Flat Earth movement is effectively a Doomsday cult.
well, obviously the automatic return teleporter at the northern and southern rim are programmed to return you to a different point on the northern and southern rim. and there is a spacewarp system in place that allows planes to fly faster the further north or south they are, so the great circle takes advantage of that. and the star dome to the north and south are rotating in different directions, and have cutoff baffles to prevent them being visible from the other side of the equator. I know it takes a lot of work to make a system like that, but it's important to be able to maintain the fiction the earth is an oblate spheroid rotating with a 15 degree per hour drift (RIP Bob)
I watched videos like this all the time, and argued with a lot of flat earthers around 2017.

There are only three real points of videos like this one: 1 - diving into some minute detail of science to explain a phenomenon flerthers show a particular lack of understanding about. 2 - money from merch, ad deals, patreon etc. 3 - making fun of flerthers.

There are videos like that. There's a Frenchman who explains how time zones are designed to hide the flat earth. He's sailed around the world and set speed records. What you'll find is globe believers are a religion and they use the same circular reasoning, appeal to authority, and ad ignorantiam logical fallacies.
The 4d model is basically right. It just needs two minor corrections: First, it's not in some inaccessible fourth dimension. We can clearly move around the earth. Whatever dimensions the earth curves through are the same ones we're walking through. It's in conventional 3d space. Second, the fact that crossing the north pole on one side brings you to the north pole on the other and same for the south pole can easily be explained by shrinking the circles at the ends of the cylinder to a point. The cylinder in four dimensions is almost right, but it's actually a sphere in three dimensions.
Its so hilarious how they struggle to find something that fits their insane lunatic toughts.... in stead of just accepting they were wrong and others are not😂😂
Yes, all you need is a model of the Earth that acts as a cylinder East to West, AND North to South, simultaneously. Better throw in NE to SW, and SE to NW as well just to be safe. Following this example will give you a 100% accurate map that violates NONE of the common problems. The best part is you don't even need 4 dimensions! Only 3!

It'd be funny to see Southern-Hemisphere flat-earthers put together a 'flat-earth-model' where the South pole is in the center. It'd make sense, too, just given the circumstances of the situation.

Yeah, I was thinking about the cylindrical model in that video with the guy claiming the Mercator map had accurate distances. Of course, the another issue of the Mercator map is that it doesn't allow for continuous travel. So I figured, to get that, you have to make it cylindrical. At least, E/W. Still doesn't account for N/S. Of course, if you now curve in in the N/S direction to handle that, you'd have a good working model. And a sphere. Consider how loopy flerfers need to be if you have to propose that the world is 4 dimensional to stick to your flat earth model. Darn, you are almost there! I've always said, the surface of the earth is flat ... in spherical geometry. That's basically the guy is doing with his cylindrical model (sorry, 4D model)
It's hilarious that the guy first claims that there is no measurable curvature and then goes on to invent a model in which the Earth _has_ a curvature - if only in the E/W direction.
@@bjornfeuerbacher5514 He's not claiming that it has curvature, if I'm understanding correctly. He's comparing his explanation to a cylinder because that's how it behaves, but it isn't actually curved. It's still completely flat and when you reach the edge you're teleported to the other side like it's a game of Pac-Man.
@@bjornfeuerbacher5514 But...but...but...it's not really curvature because it's four dimensions!!!! I don't have to add geometry on to the things they don't understand, because I never thought they understood geometry in the first place.
On the first model, what about there being a HUGE hole rather than greenland and the arctic etc? Seems someone could have easily filmed it if it existed.
On the 2nd model a set of people on a North/South line would all have parallel verticals. Thus they would simultaneously see the Moon with the same bit on top. Instead in reality they see the Moon rotated depending on latitude demonstrating vertical diverges.
My favourite model of the Earth is the *Torus* ; there are impassable barriers of storm and ice on the upper and lower "rims". This explains the positive curvature of the "Earth", and why spherical trigonometry works (i.e. all triangles have sum above π radians). We are stuck at the "outer", positive curvature, area. But that's only half the picture. Beyond the barriers lie the *NEGATIVE* curvature areas, where the Geometry becomes Hyperbolic. There, any triangle has angle sum less than π radians and our perception of reality breaks down. It's where our hyperbolic geometry counterparts live... 😂🤣
This was a good laugh. Especially since we always complain that flerfs can’t think in 3D, then they completely bugger up 4D just for good measure!! Great stuff Dave 😎👍
This shows why Occam's Razor is a thing. The lengths that people go to in creating a "model" for a flat earth. The simpler explanation - heliocentric model with a round earth and planets - is the correct one for so, so, so many reasons.
The 2nd model is salvageable if instead of a cylinder in 4 dimensions, it is a sphere in 4 dimensions. Now you just have to swap the 4th and 3th dimensions to get back to the correct spherical model we all know and love.
I'm not sure what's more impressive, that Dave understands this tripe enough to debunk it, or that he can keep a straight face the whole time... is there a blooper reel where he just keeps laughing uncontrollably every time he has to say "the black sun" like it's a real thing?
How can a Flat-Earther explain how their South Pole (or the complete Outer Rim Ice-Ring as they often call it) remains in Total Daylight for at least 11 weeks-a-year and the North Pole (or Central Hub) remains in Total Darkness during the same period - and vice versa, 6 months later.… And why can't the star Polaris be viewed in Australia or NZ - or The Southern Cross viewed in the UK....

My job requires me to post notices on the front door of houses. Some of the other guys send back pictures that are rejected because the front porch shades the image of the notice on bright sunny days. They have tried manipulating the setting on the camera, but there is a much simpler method. If the house is centered in the photo, it will include the sky and it will show clouds at the expense of making the shadows darker. If the camera is tilted down a bit to exclude the sky, the grass and the front door with the notice are completely visible. This is the same concept as the disappearing stars. If the camera is set to capture the Earth or Moon, the background stars aren't putting out enough light to be captured. Unlike Apollo 12's camera which got fried when pointed at the Sun, modern cameras can take videos of welding without frying them.

2:20 It is actually quite possible that his use of the swastika was not intended to have anything to do with the Nazi party at all, but actually was based on its (much more ancient) spiritual meaning in Hinduism, Buddhism, and other Indian religions. This (religious) swastika has often been associated with the north pole and/or the universe in general, so it would potentially actually make some sense here, if they were trying to represent some "grand spiritual meaning" to everything, etc.
Nope, the black sun is a symbol (the same one showed in the video) based on a mosaic that the head of the SS, Heinrich Himmler, built in a German castle during the war. Later, a former SS officer invented the concept of the "black sun" based on this mosaic. It has been used as a nazi symbol in place of the swastika as the black sun is less well known. Also, the swastika drawn in the video is the nazi version, which is the inverted religious swastika. That dude's just a nazi.
i feel like ive seen it said before but some of these flat earth models make GREAT fantasy worlds. ive been toying around with one thats a flat and infinite world for a TTRPG setting
The best thing ever would be for a Flat Earther who is skilled in 3D software to try and devise a model of the Flat Earth that solves all of the issues a Flat Earth would have and then the final model turns out to be a sphere. I can't begin to express how much joy a video like that would give me.
The second model is almost correct - 10:30 "3 dimensions folded into the 4th dimension", but inscientific in that it is too complicated. (Occam's razor) I applied sophisticated mathematical methods to project the flat (2-dimensional) surface of Earth into the 3rd dimension. Thus I obtained a model I subjected to various physical tests applying rigorous mathematics. My model of a (local) flat earth surface passed all these tests (astronomical, physical etc.). Unfortunately, most Flat Earthers are not yet ready for this model.
Fun Fakt about the second model: wenn you travel North to south and cross over the "pole" left and right become inverted. In college we actually built an actual computer model of this.
So my right hand becomes my left and vice versa? Weird! It seems more like east and west appear different to us. You don't actually need to cross the poles for this, just stand facing north (or south) and turn through 180 degrees, voila!
Left and right is realitiv directions ,there are actually places where people dont refer to left and right in there language, instead n s e w. When we agree on which side on the road you drive on , we also need to agree on that the front direction is the reference direction. On a ship starboard and portside is always referred To the direction forward. To facilitate a commen reference for observations you then use the ship as a compass, this to be able to swiftly report observations from the lookout (traditionally stationed on the bow )to the helmsman/ bridge (Trad in the aft) The colours of ship channel markings, follow the jalla a or jalla b standard. These standards regulate if red marker is portside or starboard. Depending on if you sail to a port our from port. So this right left ting is a bit confusing, and people may very well give false directions. and need to clarify (your /mine left/right. In absolut coordinate system like. N E + w S Or degrees 0- 360 (or 0- 300) There are no need to specify. "To my south " Or "my 165°"

While watching the video, a rather interesting thought came to my mind: what is the moon for the inhabitants of the flat earth? In our spherical world where there is space and stuff, the moon is just a piece of rock that the planet is holding on to by gravity. In the world of flat earth above us, for some reason, 2 celestial objects are spinning: the sun and the moon. The sun has meaning, at least it shines. But what is the moon doing here? And where did the sun and moon come from? So many questions...
A popular theory is that the Moon is a self luminous holographic projection that emits cold light that actually makes anything it strikes colder. Seriously.
oh, i've asked EVERY flat-earther i've encountered, "WHY would the sun and moon move in circles and not fly off the edge and never return?" only ONE ever answered, and his answer as "goddoesit"!
@@ImieNazwiskoOK Some *lights* in the sky move in funny ways. There's a great fraction of flerfs who claim that those aren't "celestial bodies", but just some lights ("illuminaries") somehow being pinned to a dome (some come up with "personal domes" to circumvent the obvious problems that come with the idea of a dome or "celestial sphere" - they hate to use the term "sphere", for obvious reasons … 😂). They have no answers for anything.
TBH the BEST "map" I saw was that the one where the northern hemisphere took the full top of the plate, the equator would be the edge, and the southern would be the full bottom of the plate with both the polar regions being in the middle of the plate faces. The plate would still have the continents that wrap around due to being at the equator would still do that... The sun would rotate around the plate at roughly a 23 degree tilt. Of course this is best viewed when the plate is blown up with air from one of the poles....
As one of my university professors would say regularly "All models are wrong. Some are useful." I personally find the globe model to be very useful for predicting times, seasons, weather, my route to work, etc. I'd like to know what the flat-earth model would be useful for.

I genuinely feel like that first video was a literal troll. It's so dumb that I can't fathom anyone being able to believe it, and I see people believing some stupid things.
Back when I was a kid in the 90s playing JRPGs on the SNES, I was fascinated by the geometry of the square world map that connects both north to south and east to west. It seems so similar to what happens on the real earth, but it's also so different. For a while kid me thought of it as still a sphere, with one pole in the center of the map, and the other in the center of one of the edges. But that doesn't work. The classic JRPG map is, in fact, a torus (sort of). Think of yourself on the surface of a donut. If you walk around the circumference, you will eventually come back to where you started. And the same is true for walking perpendicular to that direction. The problem is, as usual, projection. The "inner" surface (adjacent to the hole) has much less surface area than the outer surface. And you don't change speed as you move around the map, so we can be certain that there really is no projection error in the map we see. So we have to take that torus, and squash it until it's a ribbon that is infinitely thin. Now our inner and outer diameter are equal, eliminating the projection error. Of course now the world is truly two dimensional, which is incompatible with the general observations made in the games. Even if the game is presented in two dimensions, the world is clearly three dimensions as characters routinely do things like wear clothes, eat and move over things. You see, it's easy to come up with a model if you just ignore some observations. Ignore the consistent distances and a torus works fine. Ignore the need for a third dimension and a ribbon works fine. Ignore the southern hemisphere and flat earth....no, wait it still doesn't work. But it is at least somewhat less _obviously_ stupid.
Great video. Just one tiny gripe I have with it. If you loop both vertically and horizontally on a rectangular map you get a torus and not a sphere. For the sphere the top and bottom edges should behave as points.
I had to stop the video a little over one minute in to say that the plug for the sponsor of the video, AtlasVPN, was one of the smoothest ones I have seen in any RUclipsr's video :-)

Got to give them credit for actually putting in the thought and effort to create these models/maps, and giving an actual explanation.

"No, we totally do have a correct model!" Then the two show 2 different answers. I mean yeah, that's what we mean by "not having a unified model" . It's not that they don't have a model, period. It's that none of them have a single model they all agree with. Why? Because every single flat earth model has huge flaws on it that can only be ignored by those who are too embarassed to admit they believed some top-class nonsense. A reminder to any such person reading this: It really is not a big deal to admit you're wrong or that you have been mislead. Doing that makes anyone a boring every-person like most people. It's the continued insistence that it's all fake, combined with how much flat earthers have to break their backs trying to keep together their flimsy theories that makes them an endless source of entertainment and mockery.
"the sun and moon is just an illusion clearly, it appears in your eye but it's not real, that's why noone has ever been able to go there also planes aren't real, ships aren't real, stars aren't real, and if you think you're real but you disagree with any of the above then you're not real" I think that's pretty much how the argument would go

If we consider the Earth as a FLAT plane and want to create a deceptive map that represents a globe, a commonly used technique is the azimuthal equidistant projection. This projection preserves accurate distances from a central point and projects the Earth's surface onto a flat plane. And it is100% possible.
-- To create a deceptive globe map using the azimuthal equidistant projection, follow these steps:
1. Select a central point: Determine the point on the Earth's surface that will be the center of your map. This could be a specific location or a point of interest.
2. Place the globe on the flat plane: Position the globe on the flat plane with the chosen central point aligned with the center of the flat map.
3. Draw concentric circles: Draw concentric circles around the central point on the flat plane. Each circle represents a specific distance from the center and can be used to represent latitude lines.
4. Divide the circles into sections: Divide the circles into equal sections to represent longitude lines. The number of sections will depend on the level of detail you want to include.
5. Project the points: Take points on the globe's surface and project them onto the corresponding positions on the flat map. This projection should maintain the correct distances and directions from the central point.
6. Connect the projected points: Connect the projected points with lines to represent coastlines, borders, or any other features you want to include.
So which version to believe now.. Flat or Globe? Or both are deceptive models! Hmmm!

@@vz7042Flat Earth maps *do not* preserve distances. Only globe does.
@@infernogaming4671 Never be so confident. Confidence is like believe or disbelieve without knowledge, not good.
I can provide you with an example that maintains accurate distances while still being visually deceptive. 😉
Here's an approach you can try:
1. Select a specific area: Choose a small region on the map that you want to represent deceptively.
2. Use an equal-area projection: Select an equal-area projection such as the Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area Projection or the Eckert IV Projection. These projections preserve the relative sizes of areas accurately, minimizing size distortions.
3. Adjust the shapes: Manipulate the shapes of land masses within the chosen region to create a visually deceptive effect. For example, you can stretch or compress certain areas to create the desired visual impact.
4. Preserve distances: While adjusting the shapes, ensure that the distances within the chosen region remain accurate. This can be achieved by maintaining consistent distances between key landmarks or reference points.
Only flatearthers are able to present a "working" model that works even less than any non-woking models.

TEN Rules of flerfing :
1) Strawman the globe model in a desperate bid to manufacture a "gotcha".
2) NEVER, under any circumstances, talk about your positive claim that the earth is FLAT.
3) If pushed to do the above, pretend that you "claim nothing".
4) Learn to articulate the sounds “nu” and “huh” together in quick succession and use it whenever you need to deny reality (i.e, often).
5) Pre-emptively reject the answers to every question you ask.
6) Cherry pick parts of quotes that you think might help you, whilst pretending the rest never happened.
7) Perform a ‘flerf reset’ every morning, conveniently forgetting everything that was said to you the previous day.
8) Ignore the fact that, despite more than 10 years of social media flerfing, flat earth has advanced about as far as an asthmatic Ant with particularly heavy shopping.
9) Lie.

If they argue, demand that they prove you wrong. They don't have any arguments aimed at disproving an alternate version of the Flat Earth.
This model puts North America and Russia on the outer rim. Just as they're waffling trying to shut you up, explain that's why the USA and Russia have such large navies. To keep people away from the edge of the world. And they have plenty of nukes to stop anyone who tries. This is why the arms race. It was always a scam to keep people ignorant.
It's actually a brilliant thought that after over a hundred years of flat earth research, they're now finally ready to admit that the world curves. But only in one direction. Maybe a hundred years from now they'll take the next step, and evolve their theory to the point where the flat earth model is just a sphere. I bet they'll still be insisting that gravity isn't real.

Okay, Dave, *here's* a working flat earth model!
You just take that cylinder and close it off at the top and bottom - shrinking the distances more and more towards each end (pole) to correct for the Mercator projection.
It's important that the scrunching together of the top & bottom (North & South Poles) be done so that the sides meet at those two points smoothly, sp it's flat where they meet.
As a rule of thumb, keep the distance to the center of the cylinder (at a point halfway between North and South Poles) equal (±0.001%) at all points on the surface.
And voilà: a working flat earth model!
Of course, it's only flat, roughly, on small scales (distances under a kilometer), but it does explain *all* the phenomena you've described in your videos!

I gotta give them that, flerfs are a very creative bunch. The first model would be very interesting to explore in a game setting, or perhaps as the base world of a TTRPG campaign. Also, the 4D model was so close to getting the right answer. When you factor in the travel patterns North-South together with the East-West, you get the general topology of something that is uniformly round, also known as a sphere. A globe, if you will
But not a spinning ball, that would be dumb to say, of course 😂

The 4D model works, if you change from a cylinder to a sphere, and then you can drop a dimension, to simplify it. That "flat earth" model works ... oh.
Simple solution for the 4-D cylinder model: Pinch off the ends of the cylinder so that they form smooth arcs. You put Polaris way out in hyperspace and the Southern Cross way out in subspace. Voila. Problem solved. In fact... you don't even need four dimensions. You can safely eliminate one. But what to call this model? I mean, what do you call a 3-D shape that's round in every direction?
Don't tell me, don't tell me, don't tell me...a sphere? 😁
Or even simpler, use what physicist say: a 3-D shape (like a sphere).
But it is big enough that for small objects at the surface (like people), you can use a 2-D shape (like a flat surface) that will be accurate enough for measurements small compared to the radius of curvature.
(When distances get larger, those 2-D predictions will become increasingly inaccurate.)

Videos like this showcase one of the biggest hurdles with trying to debate a Flat Earther (beyond the fact that their ignorance far exceeds the patience anyone has):
The entire community cannot agree on one model, so before you can even begin talking to someone you have to first establish what "their version" of the model looks and behaves like (lest you be branded intellectually dishonest or accused of strawmanning), which in itself automatically disproves the concept as a whole but obviously they won't listen to that.
Not helped by the way they just spout nonsense that is not even wrong. 2+2= 5, can be shown to be wrong. 2+2= a bag of potatoes is another matter entirely.
It's best not to debate them in the first place . . . just mock and belittle them.
I remember reading about how children, during the first few months of development, are not able to understand that an object can still exist, even when it's out of view. This is why babies often cry when a parent walks out of the room, because in their minds, they think that the parent has stopped existing until they walk back into view. Although the specifics may be different, this same general and basic level of comprehension of the world and universe around us is very much like that of a flat earther.

For again it is possible to see that the sun and moon and the other stars do not rise and set at the same time for every observer on the earth, but always earlier for those living towards the orient and later for those living towards the occident. For we find that the phenomena of eclipses taking place at the same time, especially those of the moon, are not recorded at the same hours for everyone―that is, relatively to equal intervals of time from noon; but we always find later hours recorded for observers towards the orient than for those towards the occident. And since the differences in the hours is found to be proportional to the distances between the places, one would reasonably suppose the surface of the earth spherical, with the result that the general uniformity of curvature would assure every part's covering those following it proportionately. But this would not happen if the figure were any other, as can be seen from the following considerations.
For, if it were concave, the rising stars would appear first to people towards the occident; and if it were flat, the stars would rise and set for all people together and at the same time; and if it were a pyramid, a cube, or any other polygonal figure, they would again appear at the same time for all observers on the same straight line. But none of these things appears to happen. It is further clear that it could not be cylindrical with the curved surface turned to the risings and settings and the plane bases to the poles of the universe, which some think more plausible. For then never would any of the stars be always visible to any of the inhabitants of the curved surface, but either all the stars would both rise and set for observers or the same stars for an equal distance from either of the poles would always be invisible to all observers. Yet the more we advance towards the north pole, the more the southern stars are hidden and the northern stars appear. So it is clear that here the curvature of the earth covering parts uniformly in oblique directions proves its spherical form on every side. Again, whenever we sail towards mountains or any high places from whatever angle and in whatever direction, we see their bulk little by little increasing as if they were arising from the sea, whereas before they seemed submerged because of the curvature of the water's surface.

It's because Flat Earthers don't actually care about facts. Facts are subservient to what they see as "Truth" AKA the Bibical creation story. To them, facts and mathematics are simply things that can be manipulated, used, fabricated, and thrown away without a second thought. The end justifies the means. Which is why you never encounter honest Flat Earthers, why they seem so impervious to reason, and why they will happily use syncretic beliefs (ancient aliens, pseudo-ancient religions, etc.) that further their agenda. They're also obsessed with Armageddon. The Flat Earth movement is effectively a Doomsday cult.
If you examine their model at all it fails.

well, obviously the automatic return teleporter at the northern and southern rim are programmed to return you to a different point on the northern and southern rim. and there is a spacewarp system in place that allows planes to fly faster the further north or south they are, so the great circle takes advantage of that. and the star dome to the north and south are rotating in different directions, and have cutoff baffles to prevent them being visible from the other side of the equator. I know it takes a lot of work to make a system like that, but it's important to be able to maintain the fiction the earth is an oblate spheroid rotating with a 15 degree per hour drift (RIP Bob)

The 4d model is basically right. It just needs two minor corrections:
First, it's not in some inaccessible fourth dimension. We can clearly move around the earth. Whatever dimensions the earth curves through are the same ones we're walking through. It's in conventional 3d space.
Second, the fact that crossing the north pole on one side brings you to the north pole on the other and same for the south pole can easily be explained by shrinking the circles at the ends of the cylinder to a point.
The cylinder in four dimensions is almost right, but it's actually a sphere in three dimensions.
Its so hilarious how they struggle to find something that fits their insane lunatic toughts.... in stead of just accepting they were wrong and others are not😂😂
Yes, all you need is a model of the Earth that acts as a cylinder East to West, AND North to South, simultaneously. Better throw in NE to SW, and SE to NW as well just to be safe.
Following this example will give you a 100% accurate map that violates NONE of the common problems. The best part is you don't even need 4 dimensions!

Yeah, I was thinking about the cylindrical model in that video with the guy claiming the Mercator map had accurate distances. Of course, the another issue of the Mercator map is that it doesn't allow for continuous travel. So I figured, to get that, you have to make it cylindrical. At least, E/W. Still doesn't account for N/S. Of course, if you now curve in in the N/S direction to handle that, you'd have a good working model. And a sphere.
Consider how loopy flerfers need to be if you have to propose that the world is 4 dimensional to stick to your flat earth model. Darn, you are almost there! I've always said, the surface of the earth is flat ... in spherical geometry. That's basically the guy is doing with his cylindrical model (sorry, 4D model)
It's hilarious that the guy first claims that there is no measurable curvature and then goes on to invent a model in which the Earth _has_ a curvature - if only in the E/W direction.
@@bjornfeuerbacher5514 He's not claiming that it has curvature, if I'm understanding correctly. He's comparing his explanation to a cylinder because that's how it behaves, but it isn't actually curved. It's still completely flat and when you reach the edge you're teleported to the other side like it's a game of Pac-Man.
@@randomnpc445 He might as well take the extra step and claim it's flat in 3d, but a sphere in 4d.
@@bjornfeuerbacher5514 But...but...but...it's not really curvature because it's four dimensions!!!!
I don't have to add geometry on to the things they don't understand, because I never thought they understood geometry in the first place.
Well, the curve in the spacetime is 4 dimensional. It is the cause of gravity and the shape of the earth.
On the first model, what about there being a HUGE hole rather than greenland and the arctic etc? Seems someone could have easily filmed it if it existed.
On the 2nd model a set of people on a North/South line would all have parallel verticals. Thus they would simultaneously see the Moon with the same bit on top. Instead in reality they see the Moon rotated depending on latitude demonstrating vertical diverges.
They'll probably say there's a huge army stationed around it to keep people from getting close enough to see it.
Model?
They don't even have a freaking map of the planet, how are they going to test a "model"?
My favourite model of the Earth is the *Torus* ; there are impassable barriers of storm and ice on the upper and lower "rims". This explains the positive curvature of the "Earth", and why spherical trigonometry works (i.e. all triangles have sum above π radians). We are stuck at the "outer", positive curvature, area. But that's only half the picture. Beyond the barriers lie the *NEGATIVE* curvature areas, where the Geometry becomes Hyperbolic. There, any triangle has angle sum less than π radians and our perception of reality breaks down. It's where our hyperbolic geometry counterparts live...

This shows why Occam's Razor is a thing. The lengths that people go to in creating a "model" for a flat earth. The simpler explanation - heliocentric model with a round earth and planets - is the correct one for so, so, so many reasons.
How do you get through an episode without even a hint of a giggle?
Leave about 3 weeks gap before filming 😂
Hard drugs?
The simple reason as to why there isnt a flat earth map, is because the earth is a globe.
The 2nd model is salvageable if instead of a cylinder in 4 dimensions, it is a sphere in 4 dimensions. Now you just have to swap the 4th and 3th dimensions to get back to the correct spherical model we all know and love.
I'm not sure what's more impressive, that Dave understands this tripe enough to debunk it, or that he can keep a straight face the whole time...

My job requires me to post notices on the front door of houses. Some of the other guys send back pictures that are rejected because the front porch shades the image of the notice on bright sunny days. They have tried manipulating the setting on the camera, but there is a much simpler method. If the house is centered in the photo, it will include the sky and it will show clouds at the expense of making the shadows darker. If the camera is tilted down a bit to exclude the sky, the grass and the front door with the notice are completely visible.
This is the same concept as the disappearing stars. If the camera is set to capture the Earth or Moon, the background stars aren't putting out enough light to be captured.
Unlike Apollo 12's camera which got fried when pointed at the Sun, modern cameras can take videos of welding without frying them.

2:20 It is actually quite possible that his use of the swastika was not intended to have anything to do with the Nazi party at all, but actually was based on its (much more ancient) spiritual meaning in Hinduism, Buddhism, and other Indian religions. This (religious) swastika has often been associated with the north pole and/or the universe in general, so it would potentially actually make some sense here, if they were trying to represent some "grand spiritual meaning" to everything, etc.
Nope, the black sun is a symbol (the same one showed in the video) based on a mosaic that the head of the SS, Heinrich Himmler, built in a German castle during the war. Later, a former SS officer invented the concept of the "black sun" based on this mosaic. It has been used as a nazi symbol in place of the swastika as the black sun is less well known. Also, the swastika drawn in the video is the nazi version, which is the inverted religious swastika. That dude's just a nazi.

The best thing ever would be for a Flat Earther who is skilled in 3D software to try and devise a model of the Flat Earth that solves all of the issues a Flat Earth would have and then the final model turns out to be a sphere. I can't begin to express how much joy a video like that would give me.
The second model is almost correct - 10:30 "3 dimensions folded into the 4th dimension", but inscientific in that it is too complicated. (Occam's razor)
I applied sophisticated mathematical methods to project the flat (2-dimensional) surface of Earth into the 3rd dimension. Thus I obtained a model I subjected to various physical tests applying rigorous mathematics.
My model of a (local) flat earth surface passed all these tests (astronomical, physical etc.).
Unfortunately, most Flat Earthers are not yet ready for this model.
To the untrained eye, I'm sure it looks like a sphere. But that's just an illusion, right? Excellent work.
How does Dave have the mental capacity to bring down his mind to the low level of processing that these guys have? Phenomenal
Fun Fakt about the second model: wenn you travel North to south and cross over the "pole" left and right become inverted.
In college we actually built an actual computer model of this.
So my right hand becomes my left and vice versa? Weird! It seems more like east and west appear different to us. You don't actually need to cross the poles for this, just stand facing north (or south) and turn through 180 degrees, voila!
Left and right is realitiv directions ,there are actually places where people dont refer to left and right in there language, instead n s e w.
When we agree on which side on the road you drive on , we also need to agree on that the front direction is the reference direction. On a ship starboard and portside is always referred
To the direction forward.
To facilitate a commen reference for observations you then use the ship as a compass, this to be able to swiftly report observations from the lookout (traditionally stationed on the bow )to the helmsman/ bridge (Trad in the aft)
The colours of ship channel markings, follow the jalla a or jalla b standard. These standards regulate if red marker is portside or starboard. Depending on if you sail to a port our from port.
So this right left ting is a bit confusing, and people may very well give false directions. and need to clarify (your /mine left/right. In absolut coordinate system like.

E + w
S
Or degrees 0- 360 (or 0- 300)
There are no need to specify.

While watching the video, a rather interesting thought came to my mind: what is the moon for the inhabitants of the flat earth?
In our spherical world where there is space and stuff, the moon is just a piece of rock that the planet is holding on to by gravity.
In the world of flat earth above us, for some reason, 2 celestial objects are spinning: the sun and the moon. The sun has meaning, at least it shines. But what is the moon doing here? And where did the sun and moon come from?
So many questions...
A popular theory is that the Moon is a self luminous holographic projection that emits cold light that actually makes anything it strikes colder.
Seriously.
oh, i've asked EVERY flat-earther i've encountered, "WHY would the sun and moon move in circles and not fly off the edge and never return?"
only ONE ever answered, and his answer as "goddoesit"!
Also some stars move in funny ways and are called planets
@@ImieNazwiskoOK Some *lights* in the sky move in funny ways. There's a great fraction of flerfs who claim that those aren't "celestial bodies", but just some lights ("illuminaries") somehow being pinned to a dome (some come up with "personal domes" to circumvent the obvious problems that come with the idea of a dome or "celestial sphere" - they hate to use the term "sphere", for obvious reasons … 😂). They have no answers for anything.
The second Model is a overcomplicated version of a sphere that doesn't want to be a sphere and doesn't work with observations
So, the more the flerfs try to have a model of earth, the more problems they encounter. It's as if the earth isn't flat, strange, innit?
TBH the BEST "map" I saw was that the one where the northern hemisphere took the full top of the plate, the equator would be the edge, and the southern would be the full bottom of the plate with both the polar regions being in the middle of the plate faces. The plate would still have the continents that wrap around due to being at the equator would still do that... The sun would rotate around the plate at roughly a 23 degree tilt. Of course this is best viewed when the plate is blown up with air from one of the poles....
As one of my university professors would say regularly "All models are wrong. Some are useful."
I personally find the globe model to be very useful for predicting times, seasons, weather, my route to work, etc. I'd like to know what the flat-earth model would be useful for.

Back when I was a kid in the 90s playing JRPGs on the SNES, I was fascinated by the geometry of the square world map that connects both north to south and east to west. It seems so similar to what happens on the real earth, but it's also so different. For a while kid me thought of it as still a sphere, with one pole in the center of the map, and the other in the center of one of the edges. But that doesn't work.
The classic JRPG map is, in fact, a torus (sort of). Think of yourself on the surface of a donut. If you walk around the circumference, you will eventually come back to where you started. And the same is true for walking perpendicular to that direction. The problem is, as usual, projection. The "inner" surface (adjacent to the hole) has much less surface area than the outer surface. And you don't change speed as you move around the map, so we can be certain that there really is no projection error in the map we see.
So we have to take that torus, and squash it until it's a ribbon that is infinitely thin. Now our inner and outer diameter are equal, eliminating the projection error. Of course now the world is truly two dimensional, which is incompatible with the general observations made in the games. Even if the game is presented in two dimensions, the world is clearly three dimensions as characters routinely do things like wear clothes, eat and move over things.
You see, it's easy to come up with a model if you just ignore some observations. Ignore the consistent distances and a torus works fine. Ignore the need for a third dimension and a ribbon works fine. Ignore the southern hemisphere and flat earth....no, wait it still doesn't work. But it is at least somewhat less _obviously_ stupid.

Where's the edge? Seems like that would be an easy way to prove all us rounders wrong lol.
Great video. Just one tiny gripe I have with it. If you loop both vertically and horizontally on a rectangular map you get a torus and not a sphere. For the sphere the top and bottom edges should behave as points.
