I'm not a flatard yet but heading that way. What does this video get wrong.

Also how does the earth transfer its 1000 mph spin up to the atmosphere? As the atmosphere gets thiner and at what point does the vacuum of space start to take effect?

Good explanation I can agree with except for this assertion which I find highly questionable.

Even if you had a bullet with the weight of helium it wouldn't work. Air resistance would have it floating like a soap bubble ten feet from your rifle. To overcome earth's gravity well and enter free fall orbit you must have a given speed regardless of mass.

Air resistance can cause low density objects to hit Terminal Velocity. Even a high mass object that has a shape that impedes air movement can hit terminal velocity. A large block of Styrofoam dropped from a tall building will not reach freefall velocity because it has too much drag as it falls. It won't stay buoyant like a soap bubble, but it also won't fall as quickly as a large rock from dropped the same height. In a vacuum, this is obviously not the case (feather and hammer).
