Do you or your friend even know what the bernoulli principle is?

If it's crap, we're all in a lot of trouble every time we board a plane.

If it is a principle, theory, or whatever, in order to be scientifically valid, it has to be falsifiable. That means that there must be an experiment that, if done, would prove the idea false, or not. If the experiment did not prove Bernoulli's Principle false, then the principle would stand until an experiment were done to prove it false. So your task is to devise an experiment involving your friend and a rapid flow of water past an opening. The design of the experiment should be that if Bernoulli's principle is crap, your friend will survive. If the principle is not proven false, then your friend will perish. Then the principle will stand until you meet a new friend.

I cannot find the meaning of crap.
It is the principle to write the first letter of the name of a great person with capital letter.
Laws of Physics can be minimized to few basic principles and the whole Physics is based on those principles.
The principle of conservation of energy is one such principle.
Any theory should pass the test of the principle of conservation of energy.
‘Bernoulli’s principle’ is the principle of conservation of energy applied to fluids in motion.
If it is a crap the whole Physics is a crap.
I end this with this note that “I cannot find the meaning of cramp”.

Bernoulli's equation only applies to steady, incompressible, frictionless flow along a single streamline with no shaft work and no heat transfer between the start and end points. So it's crap for a lot of situations. But engineers use it every day to get inexact, but reasonable solutions to real problems.

Your friend has crap for brains. Anything that moves through a fluid will be experience this effect is some way.

Does your freind actually have any basis for this claim? Some how I doubt it.
Considering the fact that its employed in carburators, atomizers, aspirations, and has many other practical applications, the answer is no, it is definitely not crap.

Absolutly not. Mechanical physics can not operate without it. Planes would not be able to fly, hydraulics systems unable to work, and heaven knows what else!

Nope. Your friend should write up his proof and send it into a physics journal. I'm sure they'd be glad to hear it.

Your friend needs to learn some physics and mechanics.
