The Earth is growing?

Saw this video a long time ago, but just recently watched it again. Could explain some things.


Can it be happening on other planets,


The person who made the video's and narration, Neal Adams.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neal_Adams

Our physics teacher used to tell us that dinosaurs couldn't have existed because their size + weight made it impossible for them to support themselves under Earth's gravity. This is the reason elephants are the largest land animals. Any bigger and they won't be able to stand/move.

I guess a smaller Earth would finally make the dinosaur theory fit then!

That doesn't make a bit of sense. By law of gravity, the closer you are to the center of the mass, the higher the gravity force. i.e. the heavier you will be. A smaller earth makes dinosaurs even heavier.

Even if this theory is true, conservation of mass still needs to be true. (same amount of mass in beginning and end). If it is indeed growing, it needs to be of the same mass, therefor the earth is less dense then before.

Hmmm, conservation of mass is a well researched theory that has to be true. That being said, everyday we learn more and more and expand on such theories. I have gone back and forth on this guys idea that "Earth's growing", and half of it makes sense. It seems logical, but he does not have raw hard data to prove it, or the process in which it happen. If the earth grows how is there,

Mountains - Current well supported idea is 2 tectonic plates colliding and shooting upwards.

Earthquakes - Though we don't know a lot, its still widely accepted that its to plates moving in opposite directions.

ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC

With the hole conservation of mass, maybe when the super dense magma from earth's core rises to the surface, it comes out and solidifyes at half the density of the magma. Think of wood burning to ash, magma turning into rock.

This is too long, sorry.

While this narrator has some interesting ideas, it suggests that plate tectonics play a minimal role. So far, it is proven and widely known that there IS subduction around oceanic trenches. Plates are destroyed and pushed under. Geological scans show a plate being pushed under BC hence the expectation of a earthquake in the near future.

I'm not taking any sides, since both theories have their merits and "holes" that need to be explained.

I wouldn't resist the idea of earth growing... I'd just like to know how it sustains this growth.
