In the 1937 film, Every Day’s a Holiday, a con artist “sells” the Brooklyn Bridge for $200, but gets run out of town. The quip, “Well, if you believe that, then I’ve got a bridge to sell you!” is not just from the film — it happened in real life, too.

has recently been exposed to several people who claim that viruses do not exist on planet Earth. It is likely a diversionary tactic and an avenue to engage in during Unrestricted Warfare.Another divisive group would be the dreaded Flat Earth Society, a group at least superficially convinced that the earth is flat.

When out to sea, you can’t see skyscrapers. When getting closer, you see their tops only. When getting closer, you see more and more. It even works when viewing the CN Tower in Toronto — from Olcott, New York:
When the object sticks out from the earth by 0.048 miles, then the length of hypotenuse, marked as “c,” becomes 3960.048 and the distance marked as “a” is equal to the square root of that value, squared, minus the “r” value of 3960, squared:
19.5 miles
Flat Earth’ers cannot tell you why you can’t see the bottom 253-feet of the tower though.
