Why Flerfs Can't Understand Basic Photography

Added: 2026-05-05

[00:00:00]There's some flat earthers I just don't bother keeping an eye on and old Jake bias one of them, but he's gone full flat earth over the Artemis 2 mission.

[00:00:09]So I thought why not? If he's able to say that it's fake, then I should be able to say that he's wrong. Shut up and sit down you big bald [ __ ] Please subscribe. I was only going to say total [ __ ] This rock and roll. Right then, what's he saying?

[00:00:25]So I started sifting through the Artemis 2 footage. Okay. You will not believe what I found. Oh, I won't. You found nothing, but I'm sure you'll have a very different opinion.

[00:00:38]>> Or maybe you will. Me? Get this out.

[00:00:42]Look at this astronaut's hand.

[00:00:45]>> [music] >> Yeah, he's got two of them.

[00:00:48]Did you miss it? Take a closer look. At what? What is going on with this hand?

[00:00:55]He's reaching out and >> looks super swollen. And whoa, what's up with that funky finger movement, man?

[00:01:03]Well, for a start, he's in space. And secondly, what the hell are you on about?

[00:01:12]That does not look natural at all. Oh, and you'd know what natural in space was meant to look like, I assume.

[00:01:23]And holy cow, did that astronaut's pointer finger just magically grow right before our very eyes? Not really.

[00:01:32]Nothing to see here, folks. Exactly. So the Artemis 2 rocket ship bound for the moon took off on April Fool's Day. No, it took off on April the 1st. Grown-ups aren't bothered about April Fool's Day.

[00:01:51]It's just April the 1st. April Fool's Day.

[00:01:57]>> The 1st. Because NASA believes that the general public are a bunch of fools. Or NASA did it deliberately because they think flat-earthers and moon landing deniers are fools. And for the most part, NASA is correct. And just like every rocket ship launch I've ever seen, the rocket begins by going up.

[00:02:21]And then shortly after it's going up Please don't say it crashes into the Bermuda Triangle. I'm sick to death of hearing you all saying that. If what you say is true about rocket launches, there'd be no room for water in the Bermuda Triangle. There'd be so much scrap metal in there. Grow up. You start to see it curve over the earth. You've got it. It's called a gravity turn.

[00:02:50]You start to see it turn sideways.

[00:02:55]That's right. The rockets don't just go up up up up and up until they go to space. No. No. They go up and then they turn sideways. Yeah, because they need to it it Doesn't matter, does it really?

[00:03:09]>> And do you know what happens after the rockets turn sideways? Yeah, they keep making a a circuit of the earth and then they do something which is called a gravity turn and that shoots them out into space. Why? What do you think it does?

[00:03:27]If you guessed that they start going downward back towards the ground Back towards the horizon, you know, because You are correct. In this case, they start going downward towards Please don't say the Bermuda Triangle. the water.

[00:03:47]However, what they tell the public and what their excuse is if you ask why you don't get to see the rocket go to space and why it's coming back down towards the ground Yeah, but it's not an excuse and he's probably going to tell us now the real reason that a gravity turn is part of the Oh, no. Their excuse is that the rocket is going to go around the earth and it's going to have a slingshot effect and it's going to reach escape velocity See, this is what makes flat-earthers even more frustrating than they are just by being flat-earthers. A lot of them, Jake in particular, knows exactly why the rocket takes off, then curves or turns sideways as he called it, because it's following the shape of the planet it just took off from. So why do you feel the need to say otherwise? Is it because you know full well, like every other flat-earther, that the second that rocket gets high enough, the people on board can see that you're well, mankind, because it was live-streamed, can see that you're all morons. going around the earth first and then it's going to go to outer space.

[00:05:07]>> Yes. So you don't get to see the rocket go to outer space. Instead, you get to see a cutaway.

[00:05:14]No, you don't. You get to see a rocket going into outer space. Always a bunch of cutaways during these rocket launches. You never get to see live unedited footage from Yeah, right. I'm Again, this is something else I'm sick of hearing as well. You cannot edit live. It's impractical. The move from camera A to camera B to camera G to camera D, those are called cuts, not edits. Now, you can cut from one camera to another while you're live, which is why NASA do it, but you cannot edit live. It is impossible.

[00:05:56]And then they'll show you like some really terrible quality footage and you have to ask yourself, are we looking at the best footage possible, really? Is this the best camera quality possible in 2026 that we're looking at right now?

[00:06:11]Well, when it comes to space travel, yes, it is. The whole thing was sponsored by Nikon. They provided all the cameras apart from the GoPros, which were specially designed by GoPro to work in space. Oh, but of course, GoPro are probably in on it as well, which is why they do those terrible lenses that make everything look round.

[00:06:34]And flat-earthers think that explains why the earth looks round in Yeah, anyway, moving on. And then finally, they end by showing you an obvious computer graphic.

[00:06:47]Not only do they show you an obvious computer graphic, but they also tell us that it's a computer graphic just so that we've got some idea of what's going on at any given moment when it's physically impossible for them to provide us with filmed footage. Now, it was all live-streamed. Just type it into YouTube. It's there for you to watch.

[00:07:10]But the problem is flat-earthers have already decided that it's fake footage before even looking for it. And this is enough for the sheeple at home to be perfectly convinced that the rocket went to outer space Yeah, but that's the thing, isn't it? It's only flat-earthers that need to be convinced of these things happening. We are the ones who get to enjoy them for what they are, which is an incredible achievement.

[00:07:37]And it's on its way to the moon.

[00:07:41]So once the Artemis 2 crew supposedly left earth and were supposedly on their way to the moon, that's when they supposedly took this photo of the earth from outer space.

[00:07:57]That was a lot of supposedlys and there was nothing supposed about it. The picture was taken. Get over it.

[00:08:03]>> Because it's NASA's claim that the sun It's not NASA's claim. It's physics. If the sun is tucked away behind the earth, then that means we're looking at the dark side of earth and clearly it is not dark. So what's lighting up the earth? Yeah, but if we'd been on board Orion, we would have seen the earth looking dark. We saw that in the video footage, but this photograph was taken on the night side of earth while the sun was hidden behind it. Now, in a normal photo, the earth would indeed look like a black circle, but the astronauts used a camera setting called high ISO. Now, the ISO on my camera right now is set at around 600.

[00:08:50]That photograph, the ISO was set at around 50,000.

[00:08:55]That's right. That is the scientific answer if you look it up that you're going to get. That's their excuse.

[00:09:02]Talking about looking things up on Google as you just said, why is it that when we Google information and then we find various different sources that explain to us why the earth is an oblate spheroid, that's terrible and fake news and not to be believed. But when flat-earthers want to Google something which they think disproves the globe, then suddenly Google is the most trustworthy source on the internet. Just seems like double standards to me.

[00:09:32]>> NASA claims this is the dark side of the earth that we're looking at, but it's being lit up by moonlight.

[00:09:43]Yeah, and moonlight is just reflected sunlight. That's I I don't see why this is so difficult for you to understand.

[00:09:50]Correction, it's not that it's difficult for him to acknowledge, but it's very difficult for him to acknowledge because if he did acknowledge it, he would also be acknowledging the fact that the earth isn't flat. So, I get it. It's fine.

[00:10:05]Well, my question is, since when did moonlight become just about as equally as bright as sunlight? Well, it's it's not, is it? Well, this image from NASA makes it appear as if no place on earth is dark.

[00:10:23]That's right. Darkness does not exist on this earth.

[00:10:28]You don't know how photographs work, Jake. They are with pretty clear.

[00:10:33]According to NASA, so we'll go ahead and call this image number one, and there were three different images that were supposedly taken by the Artemis two crew. So, we're going to compare and contrast the differences in these pictures, and there's some major differences which don't make any sense at all.

[00:10:56]Nothing you've said so far makes any sense.

[00:10:59]And even more confusing, half of the earth is in pitch black darkness.

[00:11:07]So, how come in this image taken by the same crew, the dark side of the earth is pitch black? Right, okay. Was it taken from exactly the same position at precisely the same moment in time?

[00:11:22]Probably not. That's why it looks different. And there's no moonlight lighting up the back of the earth.

[00:11:30]And what exact part of the earth are we looking at in this shot anyway? All I can see is a bunch of clouds and water.

[00:11:41]I don't see a single landmass. I don't see Antarctica. So, all we can see is water and clouds.

[00:11:50]And speaking of clouds Yeah, we'll speak of clouds in just a moment, but you don't seem to understand that different moments in time when captured on film or digitally are going to look different. I again, I I don't know why you're struggling with this.

[00:12:07]Check out this cloud formation right here. It almost looks like some sort of cartoon character with big feet. That's all pareidolia, then. Pareidolia is your explanation.

[00:12:21]Maybe it's just me. Maybe I'm tripping out. Maybe I'm seeing something that isn't really there, but That's exactly what's going on. You're you're looking You're so desperate to be able to prove that the earth is flat, which sadly you never will be able to, that you've gone looking through the Artemis two footage and looking at the photographs, well, in the case of the photographs, probably pixel by pixel, and in the case of the video footage, frame by frame.

[00:12:50]What a sad, lonely life you must lead.

[00:12:53]It looks like they purposely put some sort of character in the clouds here.

[00:12:58]You guys tell me what you think this is in the comments section down below. Can I tell you what I think it is in this video? It's a big, fat nothingburger.

[00:13:08]Oh, but wait, there's more.

[00:13:12]Mhm, right. Now then, so why isn't the earth lit up this time, Jakey boy? They gave us this third image, which has the exact same cloud formations as No, it doesn't. Are you blind?

[00:13:26]>> as image number one. Literally the same cloud >> Ah, image number I so my bad. I thought he was going to say the second image.

[00:13:34]formations. However, this one shows the earth in darkness. So, apparently this side of the earth is dark and is no longer being lit up by moonlight. Or is it that this image is a still from the total eclipse that they witnessed? So, I guess it was being lit up by moonlight earlier, and then later on they took another picture and now it's dark, but it's not pitch black dark. You can still see the outline of the earth, and you can still supposedly see lights coming from the cities, from humanity down below. Right.

[00:14:14]>> However, in the shot where they showed the earth half lit up and half pitch black, you can't see any lights [clears throat] coming from the cities, from humanity down below. Maybe there are no cities from humanity down below in that particular You do realize that they they flew around the earth twice before you know, going to the moon, right?

[00:14:39]And that the earth is a sphere.

[00:14:41]And, you know, when you're in one position, you may be able to see America. When you're in another position on the opposite side of the earth, you may be looking at just water. It Again, this this is not hard to understand.

[00:14:56]So, they're showing us three different versions of earth. One that's completely lit up and there's no such thing as darkness because the earth is being lit up by the sun. No such thing as darkness? Okay, I've never heard that one before. And by the moon. And then another shot where half of the earth is pitch black. And a third picture where it's dark, but it's not pitch black dark. You can still see the outline of the earth. So, what NASA has essentially done here is give you three different versions of the globe model. No, they've given us three different pictures of earth. And if I had to guess, which I don't like doing, I would say that this image above me, number one, and that one over there, number three, were taken during the before and during the total eclipse. That's why the clouds look the same, because it's essentially the same shot with a little bit of time in [snorts] between.

[00:16:00]And you can go ahead and choose which one you'd like to be brainwashed with.

[00:16:07]Do you know I've never heard anybody be so wrong while sounding so supremely confident?

[00:16:15]So, I had the wonderful misfortune of having to sit and watch this Artemis two footage You could have just turned it off. You didn't have to watch it. Did you? Nobody had a gun to your head.

[00:16:28]so I could find some clips to show you guys. And I got to say, most of it is very boring and a waste of time to watch. Well, boring is subjective, you know. If you're not that interested in space and space travel, then yeah, it probably was boring. But, if you're a bit of a space nerd, then, you know, like me, then it was very interesting to watch. Every single second of it. But, I was able to find a few anomalies that I thought were very strange.

[00:17:01]Not as strange as you, pal.

[00:17:05]So, I noticed while the white guy on the left is eating he's chewing in a way that looked very strange. It All right, I've got it. Now the earth is flat because he chews funny. That makes so much more sense than anything else you've said. looked like his chin was changing shape. And it looked almost like he was AI.

[00:17:34]Something about it just didn't look natural.

[00:17:39]>> [laughter] >> Yeah, of course it's AI. It's definitely not frames dropping out because it's being transmitted, you know, a very long way.

[00:17:50]So, I blew it up, looked at it as closely as I could, and this might be evidence, possibly, that you're an idiot? You're probably right for the first time.

[00:18:05]of AI being used.

[00:18:09]>> [laughter] >> I'm not making a new I'm not making a new clip. I like CGI being used as an excuse. And I'm going to be writing a strongly worded letter to Mr. AI about allowing flat earthers to blame him for everything now. Let me know in the comments section down below what you guys think. Is this astronaut's mouth moving weirdly to you? No. The way he takes a bite here.

[00:18:35]The way he chews, the way the chin changes shape.

[00:18:40]Is this guy an absolute spanner or what?

[00:18:44]I don't know, man. Something is not right here. Yeah, it's you, Jake. You are not right in the head.

[00:18:52]Slow the footage down, and we watch it frame by frame. You can clearly see the hand will get all swollen, and then the fingers do something out of this world and totally funky. And then to top it all off, the pointer finger does this.

[00:19:12]Does what? Points? What? Ah, moves. Oh my word. He moved his finger. The earth has got to be flat. are we even looking at? Guys, let me know down below. Is this evidence of AI? No. I'm not an expert. I can't say for sure this is evidence that AI was used to edit this video. But, you can say with confidence that it's all fake.

[00:19:40]How does that work, then? or to make this video. But, maybe one of you guys knows a thing or two. So, let me know down below what you guys think is going on here. Yeah, the problem is, Jake, the people who actually do know a thing or two about space travel, you know, astronauts, NASA people, astrophysicists, you don't believe anything any of them say to you. So, you're asking for advice on a topic while excluding the experts.

[00:20:09]So, what's the point in even asking the question? Do you think they used AI >> No. to edit or to create this video specifically to dupe the public? No.

[00:20:20]I'll see you guys in the next video.

[00:20:23]You won't see me in the next video, and you really don't want to know what I think, unless, of course, I covered it sufficiently in the video. Thank you all so much for watching, and I will see you in the next one. Love you. Bye. THIS IS THE GREATEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE.

[00:20:42]THIS IS AMAZING. WHY DOESN'T THE MOON have any hair?

[00:20:46]Because the eclipse it.
