Throwing a ball up and down in a moving car is proof the car isn't moving.

This happens because the helicopter is within the atmosphere, and the atmosphere is moving horizontally with the Earth's rotation. Factor inertia, lack of external forces, the Coriolis effect, and angular velocity, and perhaps old boy will have a better go next time.

So this guy thinks if he jumps inside a train, he will land in the back of it.

Proof that Earth is a donut.

Mmmm Donuts.

When I am driving down the road going 75 mph and I notice a fly inside the car, and itโs flying around like it would be inside my house, I wonder if that fly is going 75 miles an hour too, cause that would be faster than a cheetahโฆ I think about that a lot. ๐ง

Just try and prove him wrong, you can't. Go ahead. I'll wait.

I think I captured this one from you Alpha. It's my new phone wallpaper. ๐

The atmosphere, including the air in which your helicopter is hovering, rotates with the Earth. It's called entrainment of the atmosphere by the Earth's rotation.
