Bob Knodel is one of those Flat Earthers. He runs a YouTubechannel dedicated to the theory and is part of the team using a $20,000 lasergyroscope to prove the Earth doesn’t rotate.

However, it does.

Knodel explains:

What we found is, when we turned on that gyroscope, wefound that we were picking up a drift,” Knodel explains. “A 15-degree per hourdrift.

“Now, obviously we were taken aback by that – ‘Wow, that’skind of a problem.’

“We obviously were not willing to accept that, and so westarted looking for easy to disprove it was actually registering the motion ofthe Earth.”

You know what they say: If your experiment proves youwrong, just disregard the results!

“We don’t want to blow this, you know?” Knodel then says toanother Flat Earther. “When you’ve got $20,000 in this freaking gyro.

“If we dumped what we found right now, it would be bad? Itwould be bad.

“What I just told you was confidential.”
