Is The Earth A Flat Round Disc or Is It a Round Spherical Globe?

[DR.WHO]

Are you sure its 8 inch every mile ? and if its refraction why does the object not look curved like a rainbow ? Is it not right to say the horizon is both flat and curved as that fits with the quantum mechanics , a kind of quantised duality. For a second it looks flat than it looks curved than its looks flat haha .. The fact is you can not prove anything unless you dig a hole through it.

Any other observation can be argued till the cows come home .  Dont except anything unless you have permitted your mind to to consider that reality it self is on to the individual of ones own perspective ! The point is that it is more probable that the earth is flat and curved at close to the same time due to the conservation laws that permit a two dimensional universe to exist next to a three dimensional universe.

Remember a two dimensional mind would only see a flat earth ! This concludes that all flat earth people are flat hahahahahah I new these shadow people were real ahahah

But you are defeated by the comments from David Ridlin in your Toronto YouTube clip:

+GARY IS RIGHT! -   "Hence the earth's surface curves at approximately 8 inches per mile. "

You are correct!  But that has nothing to  do with bulge height, as I demonstarted to you several times now-  https://app.box.com/shared/static/ahx720tackf31cfq4fttxhn9g62po3ks.jpg   but you keep ignoring.

The irony is that there are many flat-Earthers attempting to prove flat earth by showing how distant objects are visible over many miles.  And then there are others attempting to prove flat Earth by showing how distant objects are obscured over many miles, and claim it is due to perspective.  But those are contradictory arguments.    If Toronto appears too visible over many miles, then it proves flat earth.  And if Toronto appears too obscured, that also proves flat earth, due to perspective.   Circular sliding confirmation goalposts reasoning bias.

+norskemann1 " Wouldnt the buildings "merge" with the horizon?  Maybe if he zoomed back out a little?"

No.  Changes in magnification only cause your view to appear larger or smaller.  It will not cause more distant objects to seem to slide behind closer objects.  Here are photo examples showing how increased magnification does no change apparent ship height over horizon- https://app.box.com/shared/static/okkxhn8hir9zoy93ylmbfuhl1sgadamh.jpg   Parallax occurs with a physical change in position of the observer or the objects.   For example, even slight changes in altitude of the observer changes how far you can see over the curved horizon- https://app.box.com/shared/static/h0pbihdpy7n5nuvszb9j6qiqbc2795cq.jpg  But there is no physical change in position with magnification.

If anyone insists on believing otherwise, then post your assertion in a photography forum for corroboration.

There's a 26ft. curve over a distance of 39 miles and you're claiming the CN tower is approximately 603ft below sea level.  The most it can be below sea level is 26ft. in a spherical model of the earth.  Try again!

I used to fly airplanes. (Small private aircraft) I have flown in airplanes high enough (commercial airliner) to see the curvature of the earth.  It did not matter if I were going east/west or north/south, you could just make out the slight curvature at the horizon if you looked carefully.  So, do you believe what you read on the internet or your lying eyes?

You looked out of the aircraft through a thick window, which skewed your perspective on the true reality of things.  And you talk about being ignorant of general science principals, lol.  Here's an amateur rocket launch, which uses a non-fish-eye lens, and reaches an amazing height of 120,000 feet showing the earth is flat as a pancake!

Look at the diagram in post #54 and look at the pictures in post #52.  I have seen the image of the Toronto skyline sunken below the horizon myself.  So either the Earth is curved or the sky man-thing likes to play jokes on you and makes temporary giant sinkholes for his amusement.

You are clearly on the side of the lunatic fringe when it comes to this subject.
