Flat-earthers admit defeat after seeing 24-hour Antarctica sun: Sometimes you are wrong

A group of popular flat earth YouTubers have admitted defeat against the “globers” after taking a trip to Antarctica to witness the 24-hour sun.Colorado pastor Will Duffy organized the highly anticipated December 14 trip, dubbed “The Final Experiment”, which brought together four “flat earthers” and four “globe earthers” in an attempt to settle the debate once and for all.Flat earthers have long maintained that Antarctica holds the key to proving the earth is flat.In summer, due to the tilt of the earth, the sun does not set over much of the continent.In the flat earth view of the world, Antarctica is actually an ice wall that encircles the other continents and holds in the oceans.

I honestly believed there was no 24-hour sun, I honestly now believe there is.”The trip had been in the works for three years, after Pastor Duffy first learned on Facebook that some people still believe the earth is flat.No flat eart...
