There was a flat-Earther called Mad Mike Hughes who tried to build and launch his own rocket to see the shape of the earth for himself. He died in the attempt.

Before his death i read somewhere that he didn't try to prove the earth is flat, he just funded his hobby with these dumbasses. Not sure tho

I read that somewhere too, but he’s dead all the same

He died doing what he loved and he got other people to pay for it. 64 isn’t old, but it’s more than some people get without doing stupid shit.
