Have you heard about a flat earther that launched himself in the sky to prove the earth is flat but he failed?
The homemade rocket crashed.
What is with these flat earthers?

The funny part of that story was, if I remember right, that [i]had[/i] his rocket worked as he had planned, it still wouldn't have gone anywhere near outer space.
It would have gone the height of a really tall building, like a sky scraper, or something close to that at best. That was the extent of the power of his rocket.
So had his great plan of a home made rocket, capable of carrying a man up into sky or space, and back down to earth safely been even realistic, it wouldn't have given him any more of a superior vantage point to gain evidence, than any odd person with a window seat on a commercial airplane. It was the weirdest and most pointless enterprise to risk your life for... but hey, provided some laughs for those watching, and to each his own, I guess. He was not harming anyone else in the process, and at least the spirit of inquiry is something to root for. Maybe. :)
