It doesn't matter what else he has to say on the topic. He admits at the beginning of the video that the CO2 leaving the container pushes it. That's all we need to know.
Can someone point me to empirical evidence that the earth is a spinning ball hurdling through space

The flaw is in his understanding of science. He's worried about the heat of the thermosphere? Holy shit that's dumb as hell.
Then list his "thoughts" in the logic as you understand it.
Physics 101 already explains 'thrust' as 'conservation of momentum'. If this guys 'thoughts' aren't consistent with that law, then they are total BS.
lol these are great. Keep them coming. I jumped straight to his balloon experiment. By taping a full sheet of paper to the back of the balloon like that, not only has he greatly increased its mass (remember, F=ma), he also essentially puts a huge parachute at the back of his balloon rocket which he precedes to shoot a bunch of air into. No wonder it doesn't go anywhere. Dude needs to learn not only the Laws of Motion, but the forces of flight.

It's like clubbing baby seals, only the baby seal gets up and asks you to hit it again.
Dear god...how does this guy function on a daily basis? I'm sure this is a waste of time for you BB...but here you go:
And, yes, the rocket fuel will burn in a vacuum because it contains it's own oxidizer. Basic chemistry.
More like stomping on a nasty roach that just refuses to die. Baby seals are cute.
That video is faked - the windows are concave.
Science is reproducible, find me another video reproducing these results.
And LOL at a subpar teacher talking down about a certified engineer.
Didn't watch it, but if the 'paper parachute' deflects the air sideways, instead of behind the balloon, it will eliminate the thrust entirely. If the thrust is deflected equally sideways, the thing won't go anywhere.
Awwwww...going for the ad hominem (look it up) since you've been proven wrong? Pretty sad, BB. I was expecting a cool YouTube response to Mythbusters. If you want reproducible...just play the video 10 or 20 times.
As for your "certified engineer"...this idiot thinks you would feel the heat of the thermosphere. That's so f'n stupid it defies explanation. Maybe he's a "sanitation engineer".
And I'll bet you don't even know WHY it's so dumb. No googling allowed.
The air is pushing on the paper. The paper is therefore pulling backward on the balloon with a force EQUAL TO the force of the air leaving the balloon. Conservation of momentum REQUIRES that the balloon not move. His claim that it proves his point might be the dumbest interpretation of an experiment I've ever seen.
You know why people with a brain know that science as it's practiced these day, the impossible engine that NASA has been working on that defies physics as we know it has passed peer review. How many times has an experiment been run or reproduced to prove this? The whole profession is nothing but a joke these days.
You want reproduced experiments? The Space Shuttle was launched over 130 times between 1981 and 2011. I've seen it happen personally. I'm just ball parking here, but I feel comfortable saying thousands of rockets, which includes both private and government owned have been launched over the last century. If that's not reproducing results then I don't know what is.
Having said that, keep your faux conspiracy beliefs to yourself and keep those crazy videos coming!
We debunked this >15 pages ago, when you refused to take string and track flight times on a globe vs. on your 'flat earth' map. Times didn't add up; at all.
I put lit a rocket in a vacuum once, and the whole vacuum caught fire. My mom was pissed.
I don't believe you actually watched the video. How fake scientistic of you.
I already said I didn't. In the first minute he made assertions so ludicrous that - absent the need for a good laugh - watching the rest would have been intellectually painful. Have you figured out yet why his claims on the thermosphere are so f'n dumb?
No it wasn't and no you didn't. You saw cheap CGI effects produced by NASA. Nothing you thought you saw actually occurred.
I know exactly why you think his claims were dumb, but you don't have any idea what he was talking about because you didn't listen to the whole thing.
How many videos do they have of the space shuttle leaving the atmosphere and entering 'space'? They can't set up a camera facing forward to capture this, not one time?
LOL...he thinks the heat of the thermosphere represents an issue for space travel. WHY is that dumb - and I mean over the top dumb? Explain.
It wasn't about the heat of the thermosphere, it was about the problems you have COOLING things in the thermosphere. Where does all that built up heat go genius? How do you transfer the heat built up in the ISS/space shuttle into the surrounding atmosphere if the gases are so thin? What law of thermodynamics allows for you to dissipate heat in a vacuum. I'll await your answer.
How come when trying to experimentally prove big G is actually a constant, the results are inconsistent? It's kind of important to have the actual gravitational constant if you are going to use it to calculate anything accurately, right?
Interesting, thanks. Now, why don't they ever face a camera towards the front and where were the stars?
OP hasn't said anything correct. Lie
OP wins thread by a landslide. Truth
OP is 2nd best troll in America. Not a troll
Rolling on the floor laughing. It radiates. You think you need an atmosphere for radiation? How the hell do you think the energy to HEAT the thermosphere gets here? I'm seriously baffled that your "engineer" could be so dumb? That's dumber than anything YOU'VE posted. I'm almost surprised that you seem to think he knows what he's talking about.
