The Flat Earth movement is quite possibly the dumbest social crusade since the chemtrails conspiracy theory. If you have never heard of the Flat Earth movement, it’s exactly what it sounds like – a group of people who believe our planet is not round. Not to patronize every Flat-Earther out there, but seriously, people?
Time and again, actual science has proven that the Earth is in fact a 3D ball floating around in space. You have to be utterly moronic to think you can fall off the side of the Earth. But alas, these morons exist, and they attempt to spread their stupidity wherever they can.
As this movement has gained momentum over the years, Flat Earthers put bets out to the universe challenging others to convince them the Earth is round. One quite popular YouTuber – Flat Out Hero – recently challenged fellow Internet celeb Wolfie to a Flat Earth duel. Wolfie had to prove to Flat Out Hero that the Earth was round using flight charts. The flight charts entail fancy jargon and scientific know-how, but they essentially depict flight paths to various locations that are equi-distant from each other and utilize only 90-degree turns. If Wolfie – or anyone else – should be successful in their persuasion, Flat Out Hero would pay that individual $100,000.
The result? Wolfie did in fact confirm that the Earth was not flat (obviously). Not only did he use flight charts to make his argument, he completed the task in an actual plane too. So what happened next, you ask? In true Flat-Earther fashion, Flat Out Hero claimed he did not believe Wolfie’s data. He even refused to give the latter his well-deserved prize money.
Take a look at their YouTube beef – we didn’t know something could be simultaneously so entertaining and idiotic.
There are, quite literally, 50 videos of the two going back and forth (though about 47 of those videos are Flat Out Hero). Is it even possible to pick the bigger idiot here? Sure, Wolfie is factually correct, but who would even be dumb enough to waste their time going up against a Flat-Earther?
Regardless, Flat Out Hero is clearly not so heroic. Not only is he entirely wrong in his beliefs about the Earth, but he couldn’t even admit failure and hold up his end of the deal. We bet he doesn’t even have the $100,000 that was promised. Just another day in the life of a Flat-Earther…shady actions and obtuse views. Better luck next time, Wolfie.
