    A man who believes Earth is flat, and was ready to launch himself from a rocket in California on Saturday afternoon to prove it, has canceled his plans. At least for now.

    Not having the required federal permits plus mechanical problems with his "motorhome/rocket launcher" forced self-taught rocket scientist "Mad" Mike Hughes to put his experiment on hold.

    The U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) "told me they would not allow me to do the event ... at least not at that location," Hughes said in a YouTube announcement, amid international attention over his plans to launch into the 'atmosflat.'

    "It's been very disappointing," he said.

    He still plans to give it a go, although I don't see how a Wiley E. Coyote type launch will prove flatness of earth.

    Still looking for the pic of W.E. Coyote on a rocket with the "They didn't tell us 'don't try this at home' when I was a kid" caption

    You guys need to see the YouTube “hero” that proved the earth was flat by flying in a plane with a level to show how they didn’t have to tilt down to follow the curve of the earth. That’s proof right there.

    Depends on how big. At a certain point parts don't line up no matter how hard the impact or long pry bar. I've been there done that I needed fall protection, a rigging crew and OSHA 10

    I agree. I thought I was drunk enough to try way back in the day and started kissing a big girl but when I found my arms wouldn't wrap completely around her I suddenly came to my senses and aborted the mission.

    Way back when, me and some buddies were at a party and this one "husky" girl kept hitting on my friend.

    He finally told us "Fat's where it's at" and went off with her.

    He came back later and said "It's a lie! Don't do it!" :D
