So...
the guy doesn't believe in science... doesn't believe the world is round...

but he does have enough belief in his steam powered rocket (let that sink in for a moment) that he's gonna strap in and launch.

saturday should be interesting...

lmfao, 1800 ft?

Dude could have saved some money if he just went to southwest.com and hit 30k ft.

I admit, I do kinda want to watch this guy plummet to his doom.

He may be able to prove to himself that the Earth is flat though from 1800 ft... no where near high enough to see anything significant...

Well, even at 30k ft, most flat earthers are still convinced the earth is flat (something about the horizon being at eye level... no **** dumb asses, you see out of your eyes).

Scale matters.

You just can't fix stupid. Unless you strap it to a steam powered rocket and launch it to it's doom. Beer

Look, how hard can it be? It’s not like it’s rocket science...

Oh wait.

So the launch has been delayed for a while. Not really suprising.

I like the way you gently grab the neck, rub the cool dew on your forehead, then gently put the tip in you mouth. Then sip.

Looks like he finally launched... more surprisingly, he lived.

No comment on if he believes the earth is still flat.

He said that the earth is shaped like a frisbee. Will confirm on his next flight.
