Physics exists outside of humans as does the exactitude of math such that,
for the earth's massenergy, 4D spacetime inrushes at 11km/sec which exactly
counteracts the outward expanding 9.8m/s/s electrostatic molecular forces.

The apple doesn't drop. The apple stays still.
Everything else is moving.

The apple is like a boat in a river.

The boat sits still.
It's the river that moves.

The earth is expanding outward - to meet the apple.
The apple stayed still the whole time. Sigh.

Everything we "think" we know... is wrong.
Entropy is right though. So, we're doomed after all.
