No Need to go to Space, One Selfie Photo of a Climber at the Peak of Mount Everest Breaks the Flat Earth Theory

One Selfie Photo of a Climber at the Summit of Mount Everest Breaks the Flat Earth Theory

"Flat Earth Theory"

Dream - One of the conspiracy theories that most disturbs the common sense of some people is that the Earth is flat, not round.

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any HTML tags: "Flat Earth theory is still defended by some people despite being debunked through outer space exploration."

However, to prove that the Earth is round, there is no need to send humans to the moon or Mars. It is not necessary to go to outer space, a selfie photo taken from the top of Mount Everest proves that the Earth is round.

As known, Mount Everest is the highest mountain on Earth's surface. Due to its height, Mount Everest always attracts climbers to conquer its peak.

Apart from its phenomenal peak, Mount Everest also offers the best natural scenery for climbers.

So it's no wonder that Mount Everest always becomes a spot for climbers to capture their achievements in conquering it.

However, who would have thought, a selfie photo of a climber on Mount Everest uploaded on the Unilad website actually contains scientific value about the shape of the Earth. The selfie photo shared through the social media platform Reddit is clear enough to show that the Earth is round.

Proof that the Earth is round

Seen in the photo, the curved shape of the Earth is visible in the background of the selfie object without having to use a fish eye lens.

"Checkmate Flat Earth Society"

The photo uploader then mocked flat Earth believers in his post who still do not believe that the shape of the Earth is round. "Checkmate, flat Earth people," said the photo uploader in his post.

The user's Reddit post has received various comments supporting the fact that the Earth is round. However, there is one comment that caught attention. This particular comment actually highlights the condition at the peak of Mount Everest.

"Why does the top of Everest look like a garbage dump?" expressed the comment on the post on Reddit.

In the selfie photo, it is indeed visible a piece of fabric or a stack of colorful items behind the hiker. According to the information, the fabric and stack of items belong to the hikers and were not brought down.

The following 'Bahasa' text translated to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The trash is left to pile up on the top of Mount Everest, which is quite disturbing to the scenery."

National Geographic once referred to Mount Everest as the highest garbage dump in the world.

The unpleasant term is given because of the amount of trash that hikers do not bring down again.

To clean up the trash on the top of Mount Everest quickly and briefly is not an easy task. Besides the location being quite difficult to reach, the number of climbers queuing towards the summit of Mount Everest can reach up to 500 people per day.
