What math?
I dove into that wormhole a while ago, trolled some tards on IG and ended up being the loser because the lack of brain cells can not be defeated
Why the **** is this even a thing. The earth is round. These people need to keep their stupid ****ing theories to themselves. When you truly prove the earth is flat come forth with your evidence, and not youtube shit which is clickbait.
People really don't want to hear about this trash. It's a waste of time to even have a discussion about. Why do people always want to think they know something no one else knows. You ****ing don't

Why can I see San Antonio mountain in Northern NM from 5 miles north of Saguache, CO? 95 miles.
I can also stand on the east edge of Center, CO on Hwy 112 and see a flashing stop sign at the junction of Hwy 112 and Hwy 17. 12 miles. This should be hidden by 57 feet of curvature.

Partly for fun. I'm not disputing anything you said because I don't have any facts against them. I'm simply asking a simple question from my observations. Can you take five minutes and prove me wrong?
They are currently setting sail for an expedition to the ice wall at the edge of the earth. And dont forget, Australia isnt real.

Assuming this is even valid: How about because the curvature between those two points is less than the overall average?
Here are the numbers you need, and the reason why you can see things beyond what you think you should be able to.

It's easier to post the link than type out the math.

A quote from your article.
"For a person's eyes at a height of 5 feet above the water on the south shore, a streetlight at night on the north shore needs to be up on a nearby hill at least 370 feet above the shore, else it is below the horizon."
This seems exactly like what I'm talking about...
Except for the fact that I can see the stop light and the mountain.
The math and light refraction adds up. We don't live on a tennis ball, we live on a planet.

What do you mean valid? I'm not lying about it. It's an interesting theory that there are flat spots on a ball. I'm not sure if it could be correct or not. If so, a corresponding spot on the ball would have to have more curvature than the average. Right?
So you're saying light can refract more than a mile in the case of me being able to see the mountain from 95 miles away?
I will give you this; the earth has mountains and valleys. The oceans have swells. Not everything is as consistent as a bowling ball. Technically you are placing the earth under a microscope. Once you step back and look at things from a plane, or the space station, the earth is a nice round ball.
The earth is not flat.

Light refraction and humidity can do amazing things.

I don't generally dabble in these conspiracy theories because I'm usually too busy deciding what to have for dinner that night. But this is riveting.
I was squarely in the ball shaped earth theory when first seeing this thread. Then capnkirk52 questioned it and got me thinking. So, I figured why not put this to rest once and for all. I walked outside into the middle of my cul-de-sac and looked around.
Gotta admit, pretty damn flat out there. Even weirder, I looked more or less south and damned if I can't see that same mountain he's talking about. Over 1000 miles away. Never even noticed it before! To be fair, I couldn't see the stoplight. So.....
Chalk this one up to 100% inconclusive.
Oh, in case you're wondering, it's beef tenderloin, onion rings, mushrooms, little potatoes and Caesar salad for tonight's feed.

Laugh if you want. I don't mind. I said I'm not an advocate for either. Just observations.
Interesting...
OK, I'm out. Canadian logic is being used. I have to watch from a distance.

??? You say not an advocate for either. I say 100% inconclusive. I think you'll find if you read the comments again that I'm you biggest (and only) supporter.
You owe me an apology. But now that you have hurt my feelings I don't want it. And you will not be getting an invite for dinner. So don't ask.
