  1. its called GRAVITY


  2. your a r****d

  3. Because of gravity!!

  4. because gravity is acting on you ..... its always an attractive force. Also how do we know that australia is at the bottom or top of the world . Who decides these things?

  5. Although everyone has mentioned gravity, no one has explained to you how it works. You are operating under the assumption that gravity is a force outside the earth. No, it is inside the earth (yes there is gravity with every body that has mass, but we are concerned with the Earth for now). Gravity attracts towards the CENTER of the body. The CENTER of the Earth is 'down' and everything else is up. If you are on Antarctica, you are UP relative to the CENTER of the earth. There is no up, down, left ot right in space.

  6. centrifugal force. gravity.  physics.

  7. Try jumping up really hard.

  8. The World spins, so eventually no matter where you are you will end up in the same place. That is how you stay on the planet... Gravity!!!

  9. ask an australian web site their more into puzzles.

  10. bcuz the worls is round not flat

  11. 1. you haven't reached the edge yet.

    2. gravity

    3. the devil's pull is strong there.

    PICK ONE

  12. gravity

  13. The earth's gravity pulls at you, no matter where you are. You have just the same amou of gravity pulling on you in Australia as you would in alaska.  The earth's core pulls everything on the surface towards it, which is also why the moon rotates around Earth. Earth's gravity pulls it, and you, towards it.

  14. Because Australia in on the top of the world. They just print the maps the wrong way up to make British people feel important.

  15. Because where you go is the same,either up or down

  16. A little thing called gravity !!

  17. have you herd of gravity???

  18. Objects with mass attract each other, that effect is called gravity, the more mass an object has , the more gravity it causes, so earth being the largest object around here, pulls everyone and everything to it self.

    since the moon is smaller it has a smaller gravitational field, so if you jump there, you'll go way more higher then here in earth.

  19. because you can't fall off the world?

  20. The world is round, genius.

  21. im guessing you believe that the world is a rectangle. well its round there's scientific proof. and there's also gravity.

  22. Are you stupid, do you even go to school. Like they learned you cant fell off the world like 5 centuries ago. Im sorry is centuries too big of a word? Ok seriously, gravity pulls you in so you don't fall, thats why you sink when your in water cause if theeres a hole in the world to the middle youd be sucked in and fry up, Thats why.

  23. Gravity, stupid.

    lol

    I guess that's why you asked the question in the first place. (to see what ppl would say)

  24. Maybe you did and just don't know it

  25. because to fall off the world, you'll have to be in antarctica
