So far, perhaps the primary reason on one gives credence to a hollow planet theory is that, there doesn't seem to be any consensus what is meant by, hollow earth. There's been a dozen different theories as to how a hollow earth is defined. No one seems to place any serious effort as to how a hollow earth might actually be defined. Its easy to discount a hollow earth theory when no serious discussion takes place as to what a hollow earth might actually be.
The hollow precept by itself would apply to all celestial bodies, including stars. It can easily be concluded that stars are hollow. We know this because it would be physically impossible for any star to go nova, if stars were solid. We know this because if a star were solid (gases spread throughout its volume, any massive inward collapse when the star burns out would result in the star spinning. That spinning would slow down the inward collapse, making it impossible for the star to explode (go nova.
It is only if a star is hollow that such an explosion can occur. When a star is hollow, when the star burns out, an inward collapse would not cause rotation. Because rotation would not occur, that is the only condition under which a star can go nova.
Once you accept that explanation, try to define what a hollow earth actually is. One thing a hollow planet is not. A hollow planet is not a hollow sphere covered in the interior by lush vegetation with wild herds of prehistoric animals, along with a central sun in the middle.

Surprisingly recently a group of scientists figured out that actually possibly I didn't read the heart into it but there is a sea that is three times as big as ours and by that I mean that there's a ocean underground miles upon miles underground that holds three times as much water as our normal oceans what is a revelation and also the entire study that came up with the magma he's you know the tectonic plates and the layers of Earth was made in 1906 but the Telex plates one was way older that's some really spooky stuff but to be honest I don't think that our world will be able to be held up by water and if it would be able to then that's going to be some really dense water

This is absolutely deluded interpretation of reality. The author missed many experimental evidence proving that hollow earth is absolutely possible according to laws of physics. This is pretty decently explained in a book that is available on Amazon. Title: Hollow Earth Theory and Gravity Explained as Never Before.
Unfortunately, this book explains Gravity only partly as that isn't the main topic of it. But Gravity is explained in more details and helps to understand the ways how hollow earth would work, with gravity attracting towards the inner side of that outer shell of earth in another book on Amazon. Title: How MAGNETISM, TIDES and GRAVITY Actually Work.

Solubility of dissolved gas decreases as temperature decreases. So, as the temp inside earth falls, these dissolved gases would come out and get entrapped inside as the outer layer of earth has already solidified. The same way Blowholes are produced inside steel as it solidifies from molten state. These entrapped gases would be under pressure due to tremendous gravitational force towards the centre of earth. But the earth crust would not collapse as the gigantic bubbles of entrapped gas would exert outward pressure. The maker of this video is expected to have knowledge of some fundamentals of science.

It would NOT collapse if the spinning centrifugal force exceeded the force of gravity. Yep. That just happened. And if the forces were more or less equal, a planet would form much like Earth with a very likely possibility of said planet being hollow. Hmm. And that's not even including the force of magnetism with the theoretical independent land mass within Earth having possible similar polarities aiding in keeping them separated allowing for voids of unknown sizes and shapes and durations. Fun to think. -

well how about if the gravity goes zero and in one point in starts to grow again. Anyways let apply the formula of flotation. how much you think the earth weighs and apply the formula. or even the ideia that the earth being hollow in its center a mini sun formed with some sort of liquid metal inteligence that moves in perpetuity till it lasts. im trippping but maybe

The earths spin or rotation prevents collapse and also creates gravity on the inside surface the same as the outside its the force of the rotation that creates gravity take a glass of water and spin the water inside it and you'll see what im describing.

there's another similar one, where there's an even smaller earth inside the shell we live in and its own atmosphere and rocky skies with big mountains connecting from the shell and the second earth to support the weight so it doesn't collapse onto itself.

This is such garbage.
Saying the earth would collapse in on itself is idiotic, if that were true, then no struct we have sent out into space would keep it's shape, they'd all be wads o metal and plastic.

Manlte is heavier than the core of earth. That means the centre of gravity of earth is in the mantle not the core. So, the oceans are in the both side of the mantle and if there is water then there is life. -

What I'm thinking is the earth and its layers aren't hollow but the core of the earth is hollow personally I imagine there's a different world deep within the core of the earth not it's outer or inner layers

You forgot one thing, the hollow earth theory poses that there is a sun within the earth and it has its own atmosphere. Should-ve went more into depth in that, that would-ve been an interesting what if

So admiral Bird is a liyer then? The hollow earth don't exactly mean it's all completely hollow but tunnels and entrances I. e through caves! I've found alot of evidence the planet has hollow areas

The most arrogant explanation available. To consider the hollow earth theory you need to research it a bit more because nobody says the earth-s crust is thin. It is in face very very thick

Failed to mention this planet is spinning. Gravity pales in comparison to centripetal force. I just spun round and round and my arms float away from the body. How fast does the Earth turn again?

If a hollow earth realyy would collapse on itself, why dont caves, caverns, and lava tubes that have been been here for thousands of years collapse? I think your logic is a little off

There is no proof either way, earth could be a geod, there's a good chance that massive caves exist, this is probably closer to what is believed to be a hollow earth

Wrong, gravity acts in both directions and is created by the mass. In the case of a hollow earth we will be attracted toward earth not the center.

The earth is a Dyson Sphere. It doesn-t collapse because the central sun resists -gravity- and prevents a collapse.
