>That picture you reference has already been BTFO, horrendously amateur.

It is a fast and dirty amateur set up, but the fact that you do not understand what it is showing you does not invalidate it.

>Why would they go "around" Antarctica?

Because they want to get from point A to Point B,and safety concerns make flying directly over a poor choice. Alternative factor they may be using -- "Sightseers! Fly with us to get beautiful vies of Antarctica! Sure, we'll charge you lots extra, but rich tourists pat extra for shit all the time." They may use a more subtle sales pitch than mine. Neither of those reasons contradict the fact tat commercial flights over the pole make no economic sense.

>The 24 hour midnight sun doesn't exist in Antarctica, there's a timelapse video of it which is completely fake. Why would they have to fake it I wonder?

You say. I say you are retardedly wrong.

But go look.

I'll wait.

BIf you are standing there, you can look and see for yourself -- does the sun dwindle into the distance and disappear like flatists say it will from any point deep in Antarctica around the summer solstice? Or will it circle low over the horizon,never setting, just like it does in the Northern Hemisphere, deep in the arctic, in the northern summer and as predicted by the globe model to happen in the south as well?

That answers what I was asked about how you'd know where you were.

At this point you move the goalposts again, I guess.
