A Steam Powered Rocket Sponsored by Research Flat Earth and a Ghost Town

Flat earthers don't believe in gravity .. I found that out (it may of even been Hughes) when FEers claimed the earth was flat because if the earth was curved and planes flew level they would eventually fly out the atmosphere. Apparently FEers claim pilots would to have to keep pushing the nose down when flying to make sure they don't fly out the atmosphere if the earth was round

I already knew FEers were mad but I heard that my suspicions were confirmed

Mad Mike was killed today in his latest rocket launch.

Nothing to do with flat earth but let's not forget, at least for those of old enough to remember, the great American icon Evel Knievel, who also launched himself skyward in a rocket but lived to tell the tale.

Early chute deployment seems to be the problems in both cases? You’d have thunk this genius would have learned from past mistakes, however, the level of intelligence at work here is obvious.


ETA- Best wishes to his family and friends for their loss.
