A friend of mine believes that the Earth is flat. I challenged him to prove it by walking off the edge...

He thinks his 360 degree view should be flat on the horizon on a SPHERE!!! I agree it would be on a plane. But this asshole thinks that our view from 2m, which can see about 4 mi of horizon, would be a level one on a land mass that falls off 8” per mile ^2 What a fool. This same calculation he would use to show ships falling offf the edge and out of view Yet, 2 ships at the opposite end of this horizon are fine and can see each other because it’s a flat circle. What a fucking clown acting as an authority on this subject [/quote] I'm sorry to tell you that LHP is right: you don't get it. May be this image will help: https://i813.photobucket.com/albums/zz55/astrobrant2/Disproofs%20of%20Flat%20Earth/Other%20FE%20Claims%20Debunked%20or%20Explained/Curvature%20view_zps0yz8q4b5.png Btw.: LHP is [b]not[/b] a flattard. [/quote] Put a C opposite of B. I can see both, straight line between them, but they can’t see each other? [/quote] B and C each have their own horizon with the same size/radius A has. Explain, why C should see B - or vice versa. And btw.: A can't see B. Your assumption that A can see B just shows that you still don't get it. [/quote] A can’t see B or C but there’s no visible curve between them Glad your drawing can clear that up Yes, I see what you’re trying to convey It’s just more magic and drawings that don’t equate to reality All of these invisible curves. It’s just heliocentrists bastardizing perspective. A sphere has no straight lines [/quote] Unfortunately just looking at a picture (and, may be, reading the text) isn't sufficient. The magic words are: Understanding the picture and the text. Sorry to tell you that you (up to now) fail miserable. [/quote] For once, we agree. Your drawing is insufficient [/quote] Quote where I said that the drawing https://i813.photobucket.com/albums/zz55/astrobrant2/Disproofs%20of%20Flat%20Earth/Other%20FE%20Claims%20Debunked%20or%20Explained/Curvature%20view_zps0yz8q4b5.png is insufficient. .
