Why it worked

The video uses a simple, visual demonstration to present a controversial and attention-grabbing idea (flat earth theory). The unexpected outcome of the experiment, combined with the creator's enthusiastic delivery and use of emojis, likely contributed to its virality.

Summary

The creator demonstrates a 'flat earth' theory by showing that water poured on a plate stays put, while water poured on a ball falls off. This is presented as 'proof' that the Earth is flat.
