Reddit thread on the subreddit r/confidentlyincorrect, where users post examples of people confidently stating incorrect facts. This particular thread features a user claiming that the Earth does not rotate based on a flawed experiment involving a helicopter hovering in place. The users in the comments section then point out the user's error and explain how the helicopter's ability to hover is not evidence against the Earth's rotation. The thread highlights the Dunning-Kruger effect, which suggests that incompetent people tend to overestimate their abilities, and provides a humorous look at the phenomenon.
