Jeran Campanella, one of the leading proponents of the flat earth theory, questioned his controversial idea with a $35,000 (approximately 1.5 million) expedition to Antarctica. Campanella, who hosts the YouTube show “Jeranism” and is the founder of the GlobeBusters channel, observed firsthand the sun setting over Antarctica throughout the summer as part of a mission he called “The Last Experiment.”
“I honestly believed there was no sun 24 hours a day, now I honestly believe there is,” he said in a video he posted on YouTube after watching the sun’s movements.
However, he also made some statements indicating that he did not abandon the theory completely. “This is a single data point and does not prove the whole picture,” he said, stopping short of completely rejecting the flat Earth theory.
