Flat Earther Just Discovered The Earth Is Not Flat After All.

Fatal crash of flat-earther’s steam-powered rocket caught on video

An effort to prove the earth flat reportedly failed on Saturday.

“A man died in what authorities described as a rocket crash in the desert in Barstow on Saturday afternoon,” KTLA-TV reported Saturday.

“Authorities did not identity the pilot pending positive identification by coroner’s officials. Witnesses and news reports indicted the launch was an event hosted by local daredevil ”Mad Mike Hughes, an amateur rocket builder intent on proving that the Earth is flat,” KTLA reported.

Shocking video from the event showed a rocket launch, with a parachute deployed shortly after launch. The rocket appeared to crash in the desert, launching a plume of dust.

The rocket was reportedly self-made.

Was he attached to the parachute, or the rocket? Then again...doesn't matter. Same result.

How was this supposed to prove that the earth isn't flat?

Wtf did I just watch

Was he in the parachute or the rocket crash at the end?

I'm guessing the rocket. The parachute descent seemed survialable.

The parachute engaged without him and the front end of the rocket landed face first with "rocket man" in it

He also discovered that the earth is hard as fuck.

 

[FLoss]

He can use this video as evidence in the next life

Holy fuck!

 

[g0nbad real bad]

Wtf did I just watch

A spectacular suicide attempt

 

[mcguyver]

Yea.. I would expect someone who believes the earth is flat to strap themselves to a rocket and expect a safe landing.

Its cold in these BGOL streets.

I love how their all quiet when the parachute leaves to buy a pack Of smokes. But scream when rocket man's about to crash. Like they thought it was some space x shit.

The internetz is undefeated...

 

[Nzinga]

Leave the science to the scientists

 

[knightmelodic]

Instead of flying up why wouldn't you just go to the edge of the flat earth and...never mind.

This has got to be the stupidest shit I've ever seen. And no one tried to stop him? Friends? Family? Gubment?

Well, he did sacrifice himself for our entertainment so there's that.

YO this is the comment of the day.

 

[REDLINE]

The Earth is flat in many places and hard, didn’t need a rocket to tell me that.

The parachute was smart, it wanted no parts of that dumb shit.

 

[Dr. Truth]

So he was trying to take a steam rocket to space??? Lmbaoooooo

 

[THE DRIZZY]

He also discovered that the earth is hard as fuck.

And he landed 'flat' on it.

I remember hearing his interview with Rude Jude on Shade45 last year. He was actually funny as hell. He was weird as fuck but funny as hell at the same time. All his launches were funded by his followers. R.i.P. to him. He had me rollin when he was talkin to people calling in.

Don't have surgery with random people in the black market.

And, don't build a man-made rocket and try to fly with no knowledge, how it works.

The world is getting dumber and dumber every single day....

 

[Cannibal]

Geez, if he didn't die in he descent, I bet he wish he did. He was sitting there conscious the entire time probably, maybe, not sure if those g-forces on such a fast take off could kill a man by itself. But when it hit it top arch and was on the way down, "hey i'm not slowing down, hey, hey, I'm not slowing down, HEY, HEY WTF, GOT DAMN SHIT, FUCK. Guys the parachute isn't deploying" "Mike, your parachute is with us buddy and its shredded...you're fucked"

[junyloko]

one thing I learned "The parachute wasn't supposed to come out at take-off" flat earth or not

He just failed to keep the nose up but he did prove that spot he crashed into was flat.

 

[DJCandle]

Respect to the cameraman who didn’t flinch to get the footage. Mans life about to end and he’s thinking ... “DO NOT MOVE THIS CAMERA.”

Professionalism.

 

[TooTrilla]

Surprised he died, didnt look that bad.














Dumb muthafucka.

Nah, there's a crater there

 

[55th View]

The news reported that he did it this way, to get actual pictures of the Earth from above (to prove it was flat).

I have 1 word - DRONE?

Just as effective (more perhaps) and would have been a hell of lot cheaper than building that rocket.

Well he figured out gravity is real.

 

[PJN]

Still trying to figure out how this would have supported his case.
