Anyone got anything other than the stupid Cavendish experiment?

Prove gravity is real. Please and thank you.

I was responding to your statement that "Cavendish experiment SHOULD work, but it doesn't"

I thought after viewing the videos you would see that the cavendish experiement does work.

If you are saying it doesn't work. then i am wondering what it is about the videos that you found "not working." It seemed pretty clear that the video set out to accomplish what it was trying to accomplish.

also 2 things

1) proof is an impossible axiom in science you can only disprove something

there will never exist a video that proves something true in science.

2) when you say proves gravity are you talking about the force of gravity? or are you saying gravity, like your hand, does not exist?

i'm just confused because I've never heard anyone deny an experiment was real. reading the comments of the 2 videos i linked to makes me think there is more people who are saying this.

I also see you keep conflating terms. If you are not precise on what you are saying, you won't understand it.

the physicsforums conversation doesn't seem to go anywhere , and neither has this one. It seems like the poster is taking issue with the assumption that lead does not have the same density as the planet.

i think you are having problems with definitions and are not willing to understand the words, and are hoping that there are others out there who can better explain your paradox. but you are the one who is in charge of your thoughts.

gravity is just a label. it exists in the same way your hand exists.

density is a function of mass. saying it can have an affect on gravity while mass can't is a fundamental misunderstanding of what density means. for practical purposes density = mass. You can't have one without the other.

it is not semantics. these are important concepts that one needs to understand first before being able to discuss them.

and you say the cavendish experiment "doesn't work."

I guess I'm confused how watching videos of it. What exactly is not working about the experiment.

Is the only proof of gravity the Cavendish experiment? How come we don't see the effects of this anywhere else in our lives?

I want to see something else!
