Odd derivation of the GR gravitational shift formula
The derivation is ultimately an odd mixture
of special relativity with a Newtonian formula!

xxein1: Correct. But it is a velocity, not a speed - despite Wiki.
Imagine shooting off a projectile tangent to the horizon. It would
spend more time in a greater gravitation before it could escape. That
is why the velocity is perpendicular.

I think we are just floating in a sea of uncertainty with the gall to
claim a position within it.
Thank you for your comments.claim a position within it.
They suck big time.
As do yours.

K = mc^2(1/(1-sqrt(v^2/c^2)) - 1) should not be used in
the derivation of the shift.
You are not afraid of contradictions.
