The guy can build a rocket to prove that the world is flat!

[THECORBYLOON]

He could have gone up in a hot-air balloon to check the curvature of the earth.

[douglas9401]

No, that would only prove that it sags at the edges.

[sanmac]

And that's because the Earth is supported by an elephant standing in the middle and a tortoise at each end.

[THECORBYLOON]

He might have seen the wall of ice that is at the edge of the flat earth, or no, as the case may be...

[THECORBYLOON]

Is the flat earth not round still?

[douglas9401]

Re my previous post, I'm quite round AND sag at the edges so I might have to rethink. :-)

[ToraToraTora]

it's like building a plane to prove you cannot fly!

He has proved:
The earth is hard,
64 is a dangerous age.


(How old are you Shoota?)

Smart + dim?
Good dress sense and not the full shilling, nothing strange about that.

//Following Hughes' death, a public relations representative stated: "We used flat Earth as a PR stunt... Flat Earth allowed us to get so much publicity that we kept going! I know he didn’t believe in flat Earth and it was a schtick."//

[douglas9401]

I suppose it's a bit flatter as a result of his actions.

Sinister happenings here
Of course the earth is flat - otherwise people in Australia would be hanging off it upside down .

The accident was arranged by powers that be to stop this guy exposing the lie that the earth is round , by astronomers , down through the ages

[Spicerack]

D'you get a Valentine this year, shoota?

[ludwig]

No-one really believes the earth is flat. It's just a joke thing, like the Darwin awards.

[Canary42]

He wasn't so smart - the rocket failed.
