its because there is gravity. :) Gravity pulls us and other things down.. because of that, we don't live upside down.

Because the pull of gravity is towards the center of the earth, and every surface area, as you travel it around the globe, curves around the center, so gravity will always pull DOWN, in relation to where you stand, no matter where you stand.
Thus, if you were to drill a hole striaght through the center of the earth, as you drilled deeper and deeper, and eventually passed the center, somehow withstanding the enormous heat and pressure, the loose objects in your machine that you are using to travel, would eventually slip to the other side of it. You would start drilling downward, and once passing the center, you would be drilling upward, literally, with the gravity involved. Once in the center of the earth, every direction is "up".

lol people DO live upsidedown when compared to you, what keeps them from actually being upside down is gravity and the earth being on its axle the world is always moving, in fact you could be upside down right now and not even know it lol

Id like to discuss top and bottom with anyone here concerning the way the earth rotates.
Just who gets to decide which way is left or right in outer space?? or up or down??

plenty of people live upsidedown in relation to you. it's like saying there's no up in space. it's all relative to you.

Some do but thanks to gravity they do not know it. But I do think some of us are more effected by it than others. ha ha.
