Known for adhering to the “flat earth” theory, Youtuber Jeran Campanella admitted to having done He had to see it with his own eyes to renounce the myth of the flat earth as reported by Le Figaro. Jeran Campanella, an American YouTuber with 164,000 subscribers, was convinced that the earth was flat and embarked on an expedition to the South Pole to prove it.
The $35,000 trip is a collaborative project called “The Final Experiment,” aiming to bring together adherents of the flat earth theory and those who believe the earth is round.
To verify this, the various participants went to Antarctica. During the austral summer, the sun shines continuously for 24 hours in the sky, thus refuting the thesis of adherents to the flat earth theory.
“Sometimes we make mistakes in life“
On site, Jeran Campanella could only observe the phenomenon called “the midnight sun”, during which the sun does not set in Antarctica during this period. “The sun is doing exactly what these guys said, as far as circling around the southern continent,” he told his followers live. This observation refutes the thesis of the “Antarctic wall” defended by adherents of the flat earth thesis.
Stating that he has changed his opinion on the question, the YouTuber calls on his subscribers to accept that the movements of the sun do indeed correspond to those put forward by scientists before his expedition. “I realize I’m going to be called a charlatan just for saying that, and you know what, if you’re a charlatan to be honest, then be one,” the YouTuber said moments after changing his mind . If the idea of a spherical Earth is accepted by some, let us remember that in the United States, the theory of the “flat Earth” is shared by 16% of the population. In France, 12% think that the earth is flat.
