heres the full image, nicely showing in tens how small of a difference u should expect.

thats like trying to notice a ~6 meters difference in height over a ~1.6km, ty for the fun topic, will check in in a week or two again to see what else u got in store :thumbsup:

If you actually watch the experiment - the first mountain is 3 miles away the one behind it is another 37 miles away from it - so he is comparing those 2 heights with his line of sight and the earth declination which should be there is is simply not - but not surprised you fail at understanding, a difference of 770 feet is quite noticeable in a mountain that is only 5400 feet and 40 miles away as compared to one that is also 5400 feet and only 3 miles away. The only thing your proving is how you rush to assume things when you dont even understand, but I'm sure this problem has plagued much of your schooling.

also its 6 feet or 72 inches in 3 miles
1066 ft or 800 inches in 40 miles

not 6 m in 1.6 km - do you even know how to read a chart?

ghosts pushing cars up hills?

yep you have finally convinced me that we don't experience a downwards force and that the earth is flat, job well done!
what's next?

Where do you see ghosts in that video? :wacko: If you moronically think dropping stuff proves gravity - then cars rolling uphill disprove it!

Oh they were talking about a legendary battle between an ancient indian chief and an alligator that created a lake. I thought they were going to go on to say there spirits were doing it or something but they never got round to it

Anyhow the one instance were something happens doesn't discredit the other hundreds of billions of times the opposite had happened. "Hume teaches us that no matter how many times you drop a stone and it falls to the floor, you never know what'll happen the next time you drop it. It might fall to the floor, but then again it might float to the ceiling. Past experience never proves the future."
Object can randomly create themselves under quantum physics, maybe it can make people believe random ideas also!

they sure would....if cars could roll uphill without any extra energy required to do so.

thats just the myth, in order to put it on tourist map - ive heard of many places where this happens - as to why it happens, idk - not explained really - the worlds a mysterious place sometimes.
Santa Claus is just a myth - why do people teach it to their kids still - so they can crush their dreams later? So they have room for other fantasies?

or because it's a great tool for getting your child to understand self accountability while also allowing parents a good way to make a child feel punished without hurting them directly.

it also is a long standing tradition regardless of it's authenticity. it's a reason for people to get together and that alone makes it a good thing to perpetuate for most people who aren't anti-social shut ins.

but yea...cause parents like crushing their childrens dreams.

so feeding a child propaganda in order to crush childhood fantasies is something every responsible parent does....... ill let that one sink in.
