This is true I spent a while checking sources to see if flat earth is possible I even went on some flat earther gura channels sadly for some reason what the gura was saying sounded like nonsense to me with really obnoxious music in the background no comments explaining making it really hard to understand from their point of view just not proving their point at all where sphere earth explained things in detail saying what this thing is that and not this instead you know

Technically people are not afraid of vaccines perse, we all witnessed their validity growing up. It's more the concern now that additional vaccines are being introduced that are seemingly unnecessary, outside of the handful of true stories where a child changed dramatically after a vaccination. Skepticism is a primary factor in human evolution. Also knowing that our media IS propaganda, it should be easy to understand the person who is skeptical about putting something into their children that is presented by governments, who themselves are proven to be untrustworthy.

XD I was thinking the same thing when he said the object can't have any surface roughness

So if there's a giant sphere and a laser hits it then there would be a laser at the other side that's weaker and smaller then if you used it to hit another sphere there would be another small laser,theoretically there should be many spheres and many smaller lasers until there is only a laser the size of a single photon that can't refract around another sphere 1: there's no sphere small enough 2: the photon would haft to refract all around the sphere to create the laser. On this. Theasis it's possible that a satalite (astronomy wise,not a satalite like a tv satalite) should be able to create this laser on the other side possibly like there's a hole in the object; imagine how cool that'd look... NASA should use a perfectly round object to orbit earth to see how cool that'd look

True

@Aidan Snyder in what way is it disproven

​@Aidan Snyder I don't want to speak over the real facts because you're biased, but I'll also make the effort to answer respectfully, and I think it's an important point. I don't agree with your "edit", you're saying people can't accept major unanswered questions anymore. However, science does, and religion doesn't. In fact, what did the people when they couldn't find answers? They created gods to explain. Science doesn't claim to know everything and that's exactly why scientific theories exist. A scientific theory is something that is based on facts and observations, you can upgrade it or disprove it when you find new elements. What happened with the evolutionism ? It's is based on millions years of proofs and facts and everything matches perfectly. Every year we add new elements which make it more reliable. What I find fascinating, is that creationists claim to use science to disprove evolutionism, while creationism has absolutely no scientific proof. Stephen Hawking once said: "The Universe doesn't need God to exist"

@Aidan Snyder I have read your entire comment. I'm willing to teach things to uninformed people who want to learn, but not to creationists, because they will never change their mind. Arguing with people who do not want to recognize anything is wasting my time and depressing. Then, as I implied, I see myself as an agnostic, there is absolutely no evidence of the existence of God, and the Universe does not need him to exist, but nobody has a proof of it's non-existence, which is basically impossible to prove. I also remind you that the Bible is not a scientific document, and that is an indisputable fact, there is no debate on it. Since you don't agree, we apparently don't have the same science, or we don't live in the same world. The theologians and the Vatican said that God gave "an impulse" to create the universe, but they agree on the scientific explanations like the Big Bang and the age of our Earth (~4.5 billion years) because they cannot deny it. The Church here in Europe said clearly that we cannot read the Bible and take everything in it litterally. And this time, it's not my opinion... Also, the Earth is'n flat, and it's statistically absolutely impossible that we are "unique" in the Universe. It's just common sense don't you think? Thank you for your respect, and have a good evening.

most people dont really bother with those things they just scratch the eyes and go back to what they were doing :v so if you talk about it they would have no idea wth are u talking about, and even if they do.. i didnt knew it had a name till i saw this video :v

lol i didn't notice that voice crack

And I'm sure this video is coinciding with the several "Blood Moon Eclipses" we've seen recently, where instead of planet earth blocking off all light towards the moon it was instead refracted by the atmosphere creating a red eclipse. Would love a whole video devoted to "floaters" 6:32. I see them looking at my screen so I wonder if focus has anything to do with that.

+fla playa Well, there's nothing wrong with a little "clickbait" science every once in a while. Remember, 90% of science is just screwing around.

Yes. They are especially apparent to people with very high light sensitivity though.

When I first saw those as a kid I thought they were some single cell stuff lol. But while I didn't ask many people, The few I asked said they don't really see anything. I never knew what they were until now.

I thought it where Some sort of bacteria(or small hair/dust) .i asked a doctor What it could be, he looked at me like i was seeing "things" like halucinating. (Shitty doctor perhaps) Now i know. Some science is going on in my eyeball. First time i Hear other people see this to. Nice to know.

Actually those are things floating around in the fluid in your eyes.

@Victor Giaquinto did you really watch the video?

@@Ultiminati Once again, that's not the exact cause of the "eye floaters" Here's a more in-depth video about them kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j5yVktBqzteRZIU.html

Don't know why everyone is slamming on Victor. He's correct. If anyone was paying attention to the video, it's Victor... Eye floaters have nothing to do with the phenomenon portrayed in this video. Eye floaters are caused by tiny flakes of debris in the fluid filling the eye. When starting at a uniform, bright surface (such as a blue sky on a sunny day), the shadows this debris causes are cast on the retina, and the 'floaters' we see are these shadows. In the video, we're just observing a bright spot caused when a coherent light source strikes a round object. Constructive interference causes a bright spot to appear, under a very controlled set of circumstances. Sky-light is not coherent at all, eye floaters are very rarely completely round, or spherical. I'm not saying that an eye floater could never exhibit the effect portrayed in this video, but it's really got very little to do with why we see eye floaters in the first place.

Massimo O'Kissed Hidden Irony ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED!

Men, probably.

You should try to see it

The sun is not a coherent light source so the effect would not occur

Well maybe....u cant see the spot on moon's surface....the poisson spot would be in middle of the shadow of the moon on the earth's surface....and i guess u can't go to the moon to see it. And the possibility is there because moon's diameter, it's distance from earth, and the wavelength of visible ray is satisfies fresnel's number which is needed to be >1 for poisson's spot....

you wouldn;t need to be on the moon to see it, if you where on earth at the bright spot it *should* be as light as day despite being in the moons shadow.

Jordan L ha ha me too

Jordan L You think that's weird try living with a tiny little retinal detachment.
