Yes, the earth is spinning on its axis, but all the things on it are moving at the same speed because of earth's gravity.
Since everything is moving, then so are you, so you don't notice it. It is like riding in an accelerating automobile. You feel it because it is gaining speed, but once it reaches a speed and starts moving at a steady rate, say 100 mph., then you no longer feel it. The only way you do feel that is if you watch the scenery shooting past you, but if you cover your eyes, you can't feel a thing. If there weren't gravity, you would be flung off the earth very fast and you would die from such a speed..
So, it is because everything else is moving at that speed, and the earth's rotation is at a constant speed, you don't feel a thing. The earth does wobble, but that is negligible because it takes 50,000 years to complete one wobble, so to us, it is a constant speed.
Take a look for yourself at the article shown at the web site below, and you might understand this a little better.

Your spelling is horrible.
if you mean "turn" by "ture" then i have an answer.
For turning the earth of its own axis you will never turn around, the possibility is of getting hurled by the earth. but we also don't hurled by the earth as well. And that is because of gravity. If you now ask, how?
Then you will have to do a mathematics , the ground, which i don't think you have. If you had that then you would not have asked this question.

You do except your stuck to the earth like glue on a spinning ball so you don't realize it. An observer sitting above the earth at a Pole with a big enough telescope would see you spinning round and round.

why do we not spin and fly off since its spinning so fast!! thats the real question, I think some things that scientist say could possibly full of sh-it!!

This is not an ANTHROPOLOGY question, this is an ASTRONOMY question. Try using spell check and a dictionary.

I could guess what you are trying-for. But I won't.
Seek assistance. Assistance means help.

Why don't we work on spelling before we try to tackle physics?
