taanegl,

Falsifiably so.

metaStatic,

so better science than most of modern physics

BloodSlut,

but imagine how fuckin cool it would be if they were

Klear, (edited )

Sadly it’s the other way around. Tree stumps are nothing but small rock formations. How disappointing.

EllyEinhorn,

It wood be really cool.

Shdwdrgn,

Wow does anyone know where that first picture comes from? That mountain range looks like someone just jammed a bunch of glass shards into the ground!

Flokman,

Pretty sure that’s the Cerro Torre in Patagonia :D

archaeoraptor,

Looks like Cerro Torre. That specific image appears to be a mirrored version of a photo from an Outside article that features Cerro Torre.

Shdwdrgn,

Thanks for the link and an interesting article!

Those giant trees had to be cut because the earth was risking turning upside down from the weight.

RePsyche,

Flat Earth has entered the chat. :-D

ArmoredThirteen,

Considering the giant trees is part of flat earth yeah it was in here the whole time

averyminya,

Wow, that’s awesome. I’ve been thinking a lot about the scale of the universe and how cyclical it is.

Take a scaled out view of our solar system and then compare it to a molecules composition (the atom or group of atoms surrounded by protons and neutrons) and the similarities are just uncanny.

Like this image, what’s to say that we aren’t just part of a molecule making up the chemical composition of something far larger than ourselves. An ant has no concept of the vast empty space between the United States and Europe, we know that is the case between solar systems but our actual understanding of our relationship in space is limited.

P.S. look at the patterns of discharge of electricity in wood/paper/stone and then look at the patterns of the Grand Canyon. They’re the same! And the Grand Canyon is the only formation we have that exhibits this quality, which makes it extra interesting.

DroneRights,

Nah, the planetary model of the atom is outdated. The quantum model doesn’t look very much like a solar system.

Not even a little bit, really. Quantum mechanics is in fact almost nothing like what school taught me.

PrincessLeiasCat,

I’m obviously not getting this one lol

Decoy321,

No need to overthink a meme, but here’s my guess.

They’re correlating the shapes of the objects, implying some causation.

There isn’t.

PrincessLeiasCat,

Ahh okay, that makes more sense. Thanks!

lugal,

Just be happy that you don’t get it. There are flat earthers out there who will say it unironically. Not sure if it’s only flat earthers but I think so. It really is wild

Slovene,

Are you stumped?

PrincessLeiasCat,

You could say that my formations have been rocked.

Batman,

My dataset says there is a one to one relationship between mountains and stumps (n=3). Infinite-Power.jpg.gif

Jode,

Behold, Erdtree

Plateaus are stumps of mountains.

I have three words if you love laughing at idiots like this: Mud. Fossil. University.

Enjoy.

robotopera,

Holy shit that’s a deep library. I’m going in

davidalso,

That’s fun.

robotopera,

Giant earth theory is wild. I followed a guy on Reddit who had some absolutely insane videos “teaching” the subject. He also thought multiplication was a lie because if you do 5x5 by counting your fingers 5 times you still only have 5 fingers.

DragonTypeWyvern, (edited )

I’d say he’s trolling but Terryology is apparently serious so anything goes, some people will gaslight themselves into anything.

Or maybe he’s just amazing at the bit. He is an actor…

robotopera,

If he was an actor he was performing for an insanely small audience. This guy was legit some of his videos were years old with less than 10 views.

Something_Complex, (edited )

In every dumb movement you have the tucker carlsons that say shit they don’t belive in, the trumps completely demented even lower iq and truly believe those things they say. And who ever the hell are the monkeys that whatch it.

Theharpyeagle,

But like… so what? What does this add to the flat earth “theory”? Like, okay there were really, really big trees once. Now what?

I know I’m looking for logic where it doesn’t exist, but this really baffles me.

robotopera,

I’ll see if his YouTube channel is still up so you can get the crazy sauce straight from the tap. Be warned, it is difficult to find a cohesive thought let alone any logic.

Daft_ish,

Can you imagine the size of the chain saw!!?

PainInTheAES,

Is a quasar not just a giant chain saw? Are spiral galaxies not just giant sawblades? It’s giant trees all the way down, baby. Checkmate, Arborists.

DroneRights,

Mariner: why do all caves look the same?

Rutherford and Tendi: cause they’re all formed by… SOLUBLE MINERALS!

xantoxis, (edited )

Ah yes, all natural phenomena including checks notes the one where someone cut down a tree with a saw

Maybe someone cut down that mountain with a really big saw?
