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

Notice no counter argument from u.. There is none... BOOM
Quoting: blue leaf 11852964 How long is a "straightedge" (yes, sometimes orthography matters)? 30 centimetres? May be 50 centimetres? Now tell me: What is the angular size of a straightedge, held at arm length, at the horizon? How many kilometres or what part of the circumference of earth does that represent at the horizon? What's the height of the resulting circular segment? Should you be able to see it? I hope you can do some simple trigonometry (but I guess "no" - otherwise you wouldn't be a flattard). Quoting: Hydra The onus of proof is on you, and use a meter rule as close to you eye as possible, that way you'll take in hundreds of miles. Go!! lol Quoting: blue leaf 11852964 Sorry to tell you that I don't have to prove anything, since I didn't make any claims in my post above. I just asked some questions that, as expected, up to now no flattard has answered. . Quoting: Hydra As thought, nothing, just name calling, flattard lol.. Now Where's that horizon curve for your globe "theory" to work.. c'mon now, no more diversion....
