A Flat Earther Dishes on Why Nobody Falls off the Edge
Even though we’ve got loads of proof that the Earth is round – from telescope observations to space agency pics – there’s still a crowd who swears it’s flat.

So, why hasn’t anyone accidentally stumbled off the edge? Well, according to flat earther Connor Murphy, it’s because there isn’t one.

“It’s not like there’s a cliff you could tumble off,” he explains. “Picture it like this: we’re in a closed system. Water’s above, there’s a firmament or dome, more water below, and we’re just stuck inside. No floating off to explore other galaxies or anything.”

And about Antarctica being the perimeter? Murphy says it’s like hitting a big icy wall. If you somehow bypass that, you’ll just bump into the dome.

Planes and the “Pac-Man Effect”
But what about planes? If the Earth’s flat, shouldn’t they be zooming off the edge? According to flat earther Darren Nesbit, they don’t because of what he calls “the Pac-Man Effect.”

“It’s like in the game,” he says. “When you reach the edge, you’re magically back on the other side.” So, no crashing into domes or anything.

Flat Earth Theories Galore
Flat earthers have a whole menu of theories about our planet, like gravity being a hoax and hidden civilizations lurking within.

But here’s the thing: with all our modern tech and adventurous spirit, wouldn’t someone have tried scaling that ice wall to peek over? Yet, we’re still waiting for that “aha” moment.
