Mad Mike, the flat earther who wanted to prove his case by launching himself into the atmosphere in a home made rocket is dead...

The home made rocket - essentially a hot water heater with a man inside - was launched from the back of a rickety old truck...immediately after take off, the parachute that is supposed to allow him to safely return to the earths surface detaches and the hot water heater crashes back to the surface of our round planet...

If he didn't procreate, he's definitely a Darwin award winner....

I thought his nickname was Mini Mike? Losing shouldn't be taken so seriously.

Did he at least get high enough to see the roundness before he died?

I first thought Opie found a new drug.

He was prolly looking for CROS... 😟

Hot water heaters always fail eventually.

Well, from his new vantage point...the earth is flat!

Glass half full!!!🍺

Dumb-assery at its finest. Perhaps he was related to FGM?

Pfft... no need for new ones. Just improve upon the old ones.

Irony - the Earth is still not flat, but he is

Ba-dum-bump

I heard they call him Spot....8-[
