Because your question was missing the point and shallow. I am not
standing on my head because I am not standing on my head. :-). Happy now?

In the word of an immortal genius, "I knew this would be an uphill battle."
And for the record, it always is!

No, it is not, it is beyond that. All "gravity" is, is a word. It is
not an explanation, it is not an understanding, or reason, or even,
indeed, a defining of its reality.
It is all about what we perceive.
We are in a matrix, and all fallen man sees are physical things, and you
lot pretend that is all there is, and thus you give your names to those
physical things as explanation. All sown up then? Far from it!
If our eyes were opened and we could see, say radio waves, or gamma
waves, or electricity, or the 'sound' of music, or the true intent of a
man's words (that'll really shock ya), and so on, we would all be blown
away and blown away again.
Same with gravity. If you could see gravity, the last thing you would
be thinking is, "Oh, that is just gravity." It is much more than a
word, it is a power greater than us.

You said we perceive up and down, and, of course, the "duh," because you
are really weally weally clever, and you just know everything, Malte
mate! The point is, why do we perceive up and down if the world we live
in operates in a dimension of neither up nor down?
Think about it.
Anyone can parrot what they have heard and/or been told. Understanding,
though, is another thing.
I like to explain it this way: a car crashes through the front window of
a supermarket. Your level is, and it is clear and evident why there is
a car sitting in the middle of the supermarket (gravity). "It has come
through the damn window," with a "derrrrr" attitude thrown in because
you feel the need, in your insecurity, to assert your tiresome
superiority. But I am not asking "how" (gravity) the car got into the
centre of the supermarket, but "why?"
"Gravity" as an answer is entirely unsatisfactory. Screaming "there is a
car in the middle of the supermarket" or "gravity" is just dumb,
extremely shallow, and leaves a mind in a zombie state, like your video
moron.
In other words, why does "gravity," which knows no up or down, determine
in our perceptions that there is an up and down? What dimension does
"gravity" exist in to have the power to supersede us and overrule our
perception.
It is an entity more powerful than us and our perceptions.
How can I be in space, returning from the moon, aiming to land on the
bottom of the ball (Australia) – from the perspective of space – and yet
appear to land on top of it in our perception?
Are you getting warmer?
The closest I can get for you is what I have already said, "Why do we
perceive up and down if the world we live in operates in a dimension of
neither up nor down?"
> And we're right back where we started.
Yes, because your answer is unsatisfactory, and you know it, and now you
should feel it.
