Of course we are talking about approximations here. But to your question: No, because the asumptions don`t apply exactly, but they in some situations apply approximately on earth.

If you get up and go for a walk you will be younger than the 'you' who decided instead to just sit in one place. Not much younger, but younger.

No, your proper time is of course different then and that is solely because you _felt more acceralation_.

The OP's one line proses no longer attract attention, so he is elaborating a little more than usual. Dont be fooled, he is just here to make reactions and tease his willie. Never reply to him. > All the important stuff in the twin paradox happens when the twin in > the spacecraft feels acceleration (it has to turn at some point if it > comes back to earth).

Moreover, there are variants of the twin paradox which do not involve any accelerations whatsoever yet still arrive at the same "twin paradox" conclusion. |
