Brilliant, I wonder if it will be shown live, after all, lots of people do enjoy the spectacle of some muppet killing themselves.

 

Perhaps his flight plan should include jumping over a hundred London Buses, at least he would get into the Guinness Book.

I thought it had already been proven to be flat.

That guy who took a spirit level on the plane, and said the bubble should move as the plane went up one side of the globe, and down the other. It didn't, so it must be flat! :thumbs:

Angling is more than just catching fish, if it wasn't it would just be called 'catching'......... John

Could have been a faulty bubble John, they need to be replaced every few years! :-)

A California man intends to launch himself 1,800 feet high

A typical commercial jet cruises at around 28-35,000ft, so one has to ask "what's the point?"

 

To be honest, he'd be better off with geometry than rocket science.

With even a basic grasp of geometry, he'd be able to understand why, the Earth looks flat, with no visibly curved horizon, even from a height of 28-35,000ft above a (roughly) spherical planet with a diameter of 41.804 millionft.

Depends on what your looking from lol

The field across from me has a distinctive curve through the cctv through my vid camera far more ,i presume the atmosfere can do strange things as we see with those huge low down moons and i am sure i saw a picture of an american lake with a curve but that again could be the lens used?

Its not been belived since the bronze age the earth was flat i guess the idea of dropping off the edge was instilled into stories to frighten or deter

Looking at the data from my watch it looks like i am mountain climbing going down the gentle slope to the river and up to the church so in essence even if the earth was flat it cannot be

I suppose its down to where we live and how much horizon you see ,there would be no incling at all unless you lived at the seaside or sat on a mountain

Wait a mo ,the only time a plane isnt flat is takeoff or landing so in flight the bubble will not move as the plane is horizontal or all the passengers would roll to one end .

I wonder what the effect is in direction your going with the planet rotating under you? Mysterious stuff only cider will prove.

I dont know the numbers but if you went to 30,000 feet and waited surely the place your going to would come to you? All you need to do is line up with it

The japs discovered the jet stream and used it later bombing america in ww2 and using this simple evidence if a stream isnt higher one end than the other its a puddle thus proves canals are mongrels ,the earth isnt flat and it also is because puddles exist
