This is the full, uncut Admiral Byrd interview that aired on the Longines television program on December 8, 1954 with improved video and audio. Flat Earth revealed?
In this interview, Admiral Byrd has many secrets to tell about Antartica that could be used to support the Flat Earth, the Hollow Earth or the standard spinning ball earth ideas.
One very interesting statement that Byrd makes is: "We’ve found enough coal, within a 180 miles of the South Pole, enough to supply the whole world for quite awhile. There’s evidence of many other minerals, we’re pretty sure there’s oil…there’s evidence of probably uranium there. It’s the most peaceful place in the world, but I don’t think it will be for long."
Now, have you heard anyone else in later years rant and rave about all the abundant resources in Antartica? Just a beautiful, frozen wasteland with some penguins is all we've been shown since. I personally believe they are hiding many, many secrets and I think what he says bolsters the Flat Earth theory. This statement to me indicates the earth is a circle, like a flattened funnel low in the center with ice walls around the perimeter, all contained in the firmament described in the Bible. Listen to this: "At the North Pole there is the center of an ocean 10,000 feet deep. The South Pole, the center of a plateau 10,000 feet high. The Antartica continent is surrounded by a belt of ice, frozen seas, of at least 1200 MILES thick.”
Sounds like to me the North Pole is the center of the circle of the earth with a 10,000 foot deep sea and Antartica is a wall of ice 10,000 feet high and 1200 miles deep containing the world’s oceans. The deepest part of the ocean is not even 7 miles down. An ice wall 1200 miles think sounds sufficient to contain the world’s oceans.
