TRUTH !!
the gravity on Earth isn't necessarily the same depending on where you are.
Granted, the difference isn't anything comparable to Earth and the Moon, but there are minor changes. For example, you would weigh slightly more on the Earth's poles than the equator, which is caused because of the Earth's constant movement.
However, there are other anomalies such as the Hudson Bay in Canada, in which some areas are seemingly "missing" gravity. This is believed to be the result of convection currents from Earth's mantle or the Earth having a reaction to the pressure of ice that lessens when the ice melts away.
