Charles Barkley Says Shaq Thinks California Is Farther Away From Atlanta Than The Moon

A couple of days ago, we reported that Shaquille O’Neal thinks that the earth is flat, giving a shockingly stupid statement that did not make sense whatsoever. He said:

“It’s true. The earth is flat. The earth is flat. Yes, it is. Listen, there are three ways to manipulate the mind – what you read, what you see and what you hear. In school, first thing they teach us is, ‘Oh Columbus discovered America’, but when he got there, there were some fair-skinned people with the long hair smoking on the peace pipes. So, what does that tell you? Columbus didn’t discover America. So, listen, I drive from coast to coast, and this shit is flat to me. I’m just saying. I drive from Florida to California all the time, and it’s flat to me. I do not go up and down at a 360 degree angle, and all that stuff about gravity, have you looked outside Atlanta lately and seen all these buildings? You mean to tell me that China is under us? It’s not. The world is flat.”

Now Shaquille O’Neal’s broadcasting colleague Charles Barkley gave us even more proof, that Shaq doesn’t have a single clue about physics and space.

During an appearance on The Rich Eisen Show, Barkley was asked about Shaq’s flat world theory.

Shaq said ‘It’s probably closer to get to the moon than L.A’, and we we’re like ‘why?’. He says ’cause when I step outside [in Atlanta], I can see the moon, but I can’t see California.’ And we’re like ‘what?

 

This is one of the funniest things I’ve heard in a long time. Chuck by the way,’isn’t lying or exaggerating. It is the truth. Check it out.

Oh boy…
