It seems like this old myth has had a minor resurgence recently, though a few details have changed. It’s like finding people who still believe the earth is flat. Here’s a site I was directed to by a friend of mine who, unfortunately, believes in this newer idea of the hollow earth. http://www.v-j-enterprises.com/janhol.html If you search “hollow earth” on google you’ll find that there are a lot of sites dedicated to this psuedoscience.

Well, there is definitely some hollow space here, but I have a hunch it’s not in the Earth…..

Cute, though, the seriousness of it all.

I believe in a flat, hollow Earth.  I believe there’s a storage space down there where extra trees and clouds and clams are stored until needed.  Since the Earth is flat the hollow is only about five and a half feet high, so watch your head.

It’s not like people didn’t try to get there in the past, but unfortunately it gets quite hot at even the lower levels of a mine. And cold at the poles. Too bad, would be a nice impulse for the touristic industry.

But as always, several inconsistencies in a theory like this.

I love trees and clouds and clams!

Where can I gain entry?

I think the entrance is supposed to be at the North Pole, Dan.

Well, a hollow Earth would make it a much lighter load for those poor elephants to support.

I wrote an article for Muse Magazine a few years back about Hollow Earth theories. I’m also probably one of the few people in the world to have visited the Hollow Earth Memorial in Hamilton, Ohio.

That’s great! I had no idea the detrimental robots thing was connected to hollow earth. Lol I watched this weird foreign horror movie that was about it. It makes a lot more sense to me now. Marebito is the name. You can get it from netflix. It’s pretty cool if you like Japanese horror movies.
