That... was pretty much an exact summation of the video.
 
It doesn't have the same "derp" impact without the WILDLY taken out of context audio and video clips from politicians, scientists and pop culture figures (including cartoons for extra sciency-ness) over top omnious music and popup graphics reminiscent of "Gomer's First VideoToaster Project"... but yeah... that is exactly what seemed to be being implied.

Right on brother,
 
Few others can comprehend the significance of the flat earth revelation and the conspiracy coverup. Maybe Craig...

I took the suggestion from the video and just performed my own experiment to see if the earth revolves. I went outside and carefully observed the stars from east to west. Then I chugged a pint of vodka, smoked a joint and laid down flat on the ground staring up at the night sky with my head pointing north. Lo and behold, after just a few minutes everything started spinning. This is definitive proof that the earth does rotate.    Ain't science grand...............

Savage,
 
All should be honored to have such an objective scientist and gentleman in our midst. I did the same test as you outlined, although took an extra fifth of vodka to replicate your findings. You are right. Everything is spinning. I am humbled.

Revolving earth experiment #2:  If the earth rotates in an easterly direction at approx. 1000 miles per hour and I jump straight up, then remain suspended in the air for approx. one second, I should land slightly west of my jump point (which I locate by drawing an X on my driveway with chalk) because the earth should travel slightly east during the time I am off the ground. How far? 1000mph/60minutes=16.7 miles/60seconds=.28 miles (which is just over 1/4 of a mile.) So I put on my Air Jordans and my high school football helmet, and walked to my chalk X. I took a deep breath, said a small prayer, squatted slightly and jumped straight up as high as my old bones could go. When I returned to earth I looked down between my legs and damned if I didn't see my chalk X in the same spot! My heart and mind immediately filled with doubt and delusion. My conclusion is that I like my first experiment much better, especially the vodka part........................

You forgot to include your easterly momentum of ~1,000 mph, the air density and your aerodynamic drag.

My favorite was the question "So why do you always have 12 hours of daylight at the equator, but north and south of the equator the number varies?"

I see the flaw in this.
 
You're not an airplane.

BTW, the "airplane" video was hill-airy-us.
 
"How does this work?" the guy asks.
 
Maybe if that was where he started from he may have arrived at a more sane conclusion.
