Why then, when I asked you to affirm the existence of this objective reality, you denied it? AG* * * *https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HtKe9POc_Q*You don't even understand the things you post...or you're just trolling. Here's a still from that video. Look at the numbers in the box, the entrance and exit numbers from the garage point of view. Back enters at 1.6e-8 and Front exits at 1.8e-8, AFTER the back had entered. So the pole was entirely within the garage, from the garage pov. Now look at the numbers calculated on the upper right. These are the numbers from the cars point of view. Back enters at 3.70e-8 sec and Front exits 8.07e-9 sec. The Front exits BEFORE the back enters. The pole is not entirely within the garage! And then the discrepancy is illustrated by an animation, clearly showing the pole (ladder) doesn't fit in the garage in the frame in which the garage is moving. Yet you write, "*Here's another video which shows the paradox is resolved by demonstrating that the car fits in both frames,". * * **I should have wriiten " ... allegedly resolved ... ". In your opinion, can it be shown the car fits in garage from the car's frame? If not, the paradox is alive and well, and SR is in trouble. AG*
