#2

If the Earth stopped spinning suddenly, the atmosphere would still be in motion with the Earth's original 1100 mile per hour rotation speed at the equator.

#3

All of the land masses would be scoured clean of anything not attached to bedrock.

#4

Earth's magnetic field would cease to exist and we would be dosed with deadly

#5

In other words: at the moment of sudden stop everyone standing at the equator would suddenly find themselves travelling at 1.4 times the speed of sound relative to the now-still surface...at least until they hit something.

#6

The Mega-Continent at the equator and the two oceans around the poles

#7

Much of the atmosphere would be boiled off. A fireball would expand outward destroying material in it's path and polluting the rest of the atmosphere.

Those things would probably kill all life and level everything on the Earth's surface! It would be much worse than the extinction event that may have contributed to dinosaur extinction.

#8

We'd all be dead. THE END !!!
