Luminaries such as rapper B.o.B and NBA star Kyrie Irving have sprinkled doubt — whether in jest or not — that the Earth is as it appears in pictures. And now a YouGov survey of 8,215 American adults comes out that offers troubling results. The numbers appear to show that only 84 percent of Americans have always believed the Earth is round and had no doubts about it.

A recent poll of over 8000 Americans exposed the weight of flat earth theories. We can see the amazing results by projecting the percentages across the US population of nearly 330 million people. This means that 2% of everyone and 4% of millennials (18-24) don’t agree with what they have been “taught” in schools about the shape of the earth.
