Cricket hero Andrew 'Freddie' Flintoff is convinced the Earth is FLAT
(or at the very least, turnip-shaped)
'Freddie' said he has become obsessed with a podcast called The Flat
Earthers
Their conspiracy theory claims the spherical Earth was concocted by Disney
It was first speculated by the Greeks and has been accepted as fact for
more than 500 years
But the ex-cricket star says there is 'evidence to suggest the world
isn't round'
By PADDY DINHAM FOR MAILONLINE
Former England cricket star Andrew Flintoff has admitted he is convinced
the world is flat- or at least 'bulbous, like a turnip'.
'Freddie', 39, admitted he has become obsessed with a podcast called
The Flat Earthers.
The show is a genuine conspiracy theory claiming the earth being round
was a lie peddled by Disney - despite the assertion of a spherical
planet having been around since the Ancient Greek era, and having been
the popular belief since Christohper Columbus' famed voyage in 1492.
Speaking on his own podcast, for BBC 5 Live with former Wales footballer
Robbie Savage, Flintoff ignored all satellite photos of Earth to suggest
there was 'evidence to suggest the world wasn't round'.
And the pair are even deliberating a trip to next year's The Flat Earth
International Conference in America.
He said: 'If you’re in a helicopter and you hover why does the Earth not
come to you if it’s round?
'Why, if we’re hurtling through space, why would water stay still? Why
is it not wobbling? Also if you fire a laser about 16 miles, if the
world was curved, you shouldn’t be able to see it but you can.'
He added: 'The middle is the North Pole, around the outside is the South
Pole which is like a big wall of ice.
