  1. No you were right.

  2. These were filmed while ago all at once.

  3. Because it is fake.

  4. Those are seperate forces. The spinning causes centrifugal (or centripital, I never remember which) force where mass tries to keep moving in a straight line which points outwards. The spinning of the Earth has nothing to do gravity, the enormous mass is. Gravity is caused by mass warping space. The usual visualisation is of a ball in the centre of a trampoline. The ball is Earth (or whatever celestial body), the fabric is space (but 2D instead of 3D), and the bending towards the ball is gravity.

  5. The force pushing outward (centrifugal or centripital, never remember which) is enough to break it.

  6. Watching Dan's expression progress... Perfection.

  7. That CRT TV is very loud.

  8. It is spinning the entire time, but slows/stops/reverses because it syncs with the framerate.

  9. He actually did that years ago.

  10. It's applied outward on all sides as centrifugal/centripital (one of those, I don't remember) force causing a split at the weakest part.

  11. Probably because he used the sound of props

  12. No. Terminal velocity is the maximum speed something can have when falling. That was the apple syncing with the frame rate, spinning one rotation for each frame (and increasing).

  13. It's faked :I
