The reason no flat-earther will describe what shape they think the Earth actually is, is so that they can always move the goalposts. If they produced a map or a model for their version of the flat-earth, then it could be tested and disproven. But if they don't state their position, then they haven't produced enough information to be definitively debunked and can always accuse scientists of attacking a straw-man instead of 'what they actually believe'

Finally someone is addressing the point I have been wondering for a long time; all the flerfs cry out flatness even from high altitude cameras, but nobody had ever mentioned the assumed endless ice wall at the edges of the visible view.
And you would think that they would try to document the ice wall despite the evil government surveillance near the wall. I often wonder what they actually are trying to accomplish with the crazy mindset. Loonies 😆
How come we can never see that "endless ice wall" from the ISS or any other video made in space? 😂 If you have ever played "Lords of Midnight" or "Doomdark's Revenge" then you'll be able to see an endless ice wall...

Trying to convince a flat earther they're wrong only pushes them deeper into the delusion. The problem is some people just find it impossible to admit that they got something wrong. They would rather double-down on their bias.
Trying to argue with flat earthers is a lost cause. You don't need to waste all that time. Nobody knows that to actually inform a person, you cannot simply refute their points. You need to get them to understand your words in their own context.
The main reason its hard to impossible to convince a flat earther is that they revel in being the victim of a conspiracy since if the majority of the world is working to deceive you, then your not to blame for failing at life :).
I knew a man who was a flat eather briefly, and had a tendency to fall into conspiracy theories. His defense was that it didn’t matter what he said because ‘everyone was gonna say I was wrong anyway.’ These people categorize themselves as separate from everyone else and determine that the world is out to get them. Flat earther conspiracies make them feel smart when they know deep down that they aren’t actually smart, and someone questioning the validity of that knowledge is not only challenging their knowledge, but their ego as well. They’re immature children masquerading as functioning adults.
I used to draw maps using an instrument with aerial stereo photography. It's called photogrammetry. The intsrument had an earth curviture correction when the photographs were taken from very high altitudes. It flattened the edges of the image to represent a true topographic model on the map. If the earth was flat, why do photogrammetric instruments need earth curviture correction?
A Flat Earther would say something to you like, "You didn't do the calculations personally, so you don't actually *know* that the correction is for earth curve. That's just what *they* told you." The person who said this to you would have a high percentage chance of being a Christian, but also have a high percentage chance of somehow thinking this was probably done by the Jews. Seems to be a pretty frequent line of reasoning.
I have sailed to Hawai'i and around the South Pacific using a sextant and sight reduction tables--- I observed Earth being approximately spherical. At no time did I sail into an ice wall. As for eyes having a distance limit, I have seen stars and galaxies many thousands of light years away. Gosh.
@@Globehoax try to navigate using an equidistant azimuthal map and you get lost easily unless you navigate along the meridians only. Such maps, of which Gleasons' is just a special case with the geographic north pole as the center, are good for only one thing: getting directions and distances correct from the center point to any other location on the map. Between any other pair of points not on the same meridian: not so much. So this type of map projection is favored by radio operators, just with their own location in the center instead of the north pole, that gives them easy information on in what direction, and how far away, other radio stations are. PS: have you read Gleasons' book? Earth being flat is not even the most crazy idea he had, unfortunately ... :o
@@Globehoax "Open Gleason flat earth and see the land layout" The land layout is all wrong. All the continents are the wrong shape and in the wrong position. In fact, in the key of the Gleason Map it says that it's a projection of the globe, which is why the land is so distorted. "all navigation is controlled by a globe propaganda machine. " How does the government control something you can do by yourself?
It comes down to "It doesn't agree with my preconceived notion, so it can't exist". When postgalactic noticed the curve after he messed with the image trying to make it agree with his beliefs, (which seems like cheating?) he just chose to ignore it. His response was "I refuse to believe the evidence of my eyes, so it's wrong for some reason I can't articulate". Seems really sad, to me.
Possibly cognitive dissonance? Could be a few other biases too. I think it's worth keeping in mind that all of us can make similar mistakes. Our brains are really bad at this stuff, flat earth is just an extreme example.
It's no point arguing with idiots. You can shoot flatearthers into the orbit and they will either claim, that the windows are TV panels or / and they've been drugged over the air to see things that aren't there.
For most or 'em that's perfect.. But I'd amend it slightly to cover the full spectrum of flattie: "It doesn't agree with my preconceived notion so it must be wrong". This way we accommodate the failed experiments of such flatulents as Bob "15 degrees per hour" Noodle, and Mr "interesting" J'ism, etc, whereby they find post hoc excuses to deny their own results.

@@SyrinxQ72 They have no problem with "infinite ice wall" because that's a valid shape of their REAL belief: Divine Fishbowl.

Been awhile since I saw a "limit if the eye's range" argument. What I've always loved about it is that if it were true, the higher up you get the shorter your view of the ground should be, so lookout towers and crowsnests would actually be WORSE at spotting things.
Because our personal visible-horizon at any given point in time remains fixed, on a Flat-Earth Model that would indeed make Elevation-for-Spotting a Failed Endeavor because at Best absolutely nothing would ever have changed or been more beneficial in that scenario (or else it would've been Made Worse, as you said). Whereas in reality, here on Actual Earth, elevation still doesn't change the fact that our personal visible-horizon stays with fixed with us, But it does allow that visible-horizon to potentially reach its actual practical-maximum by virtue of Looking Over the Curvature.
Yeah, because atmospheric density isn't a thing, or weather, or light reflection/refraction limiting or ability to see past a certain distance or angular size of objects further away. Flat or globe, these same issues are at play.
@@zefferss those are different than the "limit of the eye's range" argument flerfers try to claim, which is that the eye can see an exact distance and no further and thats why we have a horizon.
@@MasamiPhoenix I don't know what the eye sight limitations are exactly, that would have to be demonstrated, I assume there is a limited range of our eye sight, at least when horizon comes into play. Because you can demonstrate horizon absent curvature, it seems to have perhaps something to do with eye sight limitation or adding to that, all of the above I mentioned as well.
You can see the curve, go to the ocean and take a picture of the horizon across as much of the shot as possible. Compress the photo into a vertical strip and you can *clearly* see a curve. Edit: just as demonstrated lol
Agreed. The longest horizon you can see normally shows a curve amounting to about ⅛°. Normally that cannot be detected by the naked eye, but is obvious from a centred photograph with horizontal compression.
Draw a straight horizontal line in photoshop, take a picture of the monitor using a camera, and load the photo in photoshop, now squeeze it into a vertical strip , you have an arc, so does it mean your draw a curve ? 🤣🤣 globe heads, your s t .. pd claim is debunked already. Don't you know that?
If earth is flying at 800,000 kmph, let's say India is flying upwards, then America would be flying downwards, because it's opposite, so after 12 hours India flies downwards and America flies upwards, right?

So sad, billions of people believed on flying ball earth so deep in their every cell, since their childhood, now this sudden truth bothers them deeply, because every brain cell is filled with ball earth, it's the most heart breaking for globers.
Observation was done by Dr John D PhD. 3.5ft view height. Ship at 20.8 miles. Refracted Horizon = 2.47 Refracted Hidden= 191.95 So the horizon can be no further than 2.47 miles "its beyond 20.8 miles, even with refraction you need to account for 191.95ft ?

It is largely because they simply cannot think logically. You can present a simple logical step to them and they just refuse to understand.

Went on a cruise last month and the railing on deck had the same setup as the 2 bars in the video. The distance of the window was longer too. I saw the same thing, a difference in height along the span of the "window". I thought that was pretty cool.
i like this guy, he addresses the flat earthers in their own logic, and he does it politely, and not shouting or calling them names. Good on you, Dave!
he just misunderstand a lots of physics and laws.. in his head, your view is not blocked by the distance and the atmosphere pressure outside..

Elon Musk will not colonize Mars.. let's see who will be right in 10 years.
Not entirely True. Round Earthers also rely on mathematical models and physics that predict where other objects in space will be based on size and shape of other objects in space, as well as observations that show said objects are in fact where they should be... The planet Neptune was actually discovered in 1846 using said methods.
The guy (username Cori?) who did the original observation went to a great deal of effort to ensure: 1. No lens distortion and 2. That the shot was right in the middle of the sensor and 3. That the picture was square on. He spent a winter house-sitting. Some that time was spent debunking the cake and arse party that is flat Earth. This was just one of his observations. He was doing this just as CoolHardLogic was coming to the end of posting his series of videos.
@@ABaumstumpf He'd pretty much had enough with flat earth before his channel disappeared, and there were rumours that he'd been hit with copyright strikes over music he posted. I guess he just moved on to other things.
"You can't assume this with observation alone" is the greatest insult a flerf could use to debunk a test. They themselves ONLY believe in what they can see with their own eyes.
They don't gravity is real. To them, stuff falls down "because it just does, why wouldn't it?," and any attempt to explain why stuff falls down is an overly complicated explanation for something that is common sense.
@@shidqy0003 The guy who is showing the clear curve, but since its still near the midpoint chooses to say his eyes are lying move those bars further out, and the curve becomes not only obvious, but bloody obvious.
I like that you actually add some new arguments to this “debate.” Flat earth era constantly going on about perspective and lens tricks, but it’s so great to have a photography expert debunking the observation and visual arguments of flathearthers. I think this is actually a better approach than trying to debunk their arguments with simple to complex science because the heart of all of their arguments is “I can’t observe it.” Well done
I love Flat Earth's comment (long at the bottom). "No one will go there. It's too cold. This is the size of land Byrd says there is. It's an estimate, and we can't know." I don't know why, but this whole thing made me chuckle. I was waiting for "andthenandthenandthen the atomic space cows launched their attack and Gramma transformed into a sandwich which defeated the evil Broccoli people!" Flat Earth, if you read this, you made my day, thank you.
i love that all the FlatEarther arguments against any evidence boild down to "you see! the Earth is flat because is clearly round & Physics only apply when i say so"
"This test is nonsensical off the gate it's all based off perspective" How flat earthers deemed the earth is flat: hey the horizon _looks_ flat so the earth must be flat
That one guy also showed that he isn't very familiar with photoshop. There are lots of ways to move his little blocks around without changing their height and having to guess if they're in the same space on the left side bar.
The fact that he turned to Photoshop,in itself, shows the absurdity of the lengths such people will go to. But yes, you‘re right. I think he should have started with MS Paint and mastered that first. Or, maybe even get his mum to let him have some plasticine so that he could construct his own model.
@@sando99 I laughed when he moved his little blocks to the left hand edge and the horizon was obviously lower at that end while the steel bars were still parallel and the same distance apart and he uttered some nonsense when he realised he'd just proven the horizon on the photo was curved.
@@ShizukuSeiji Not to mention earlier with the compress horizontal version of the picture that right had set of bars he considered proof the photo had issues, showed a clear curve on the horizon... despite being from his logic straight on the parallel in relation to the bars and the horizon compared to the left hand set of bars Which kinda goes to show you cant tell if something is truly straight over even short distance with the human eye.. despite Flerfs constantly saying it looks flat...
"This test is nonsense. You are just relying on observation..." Wait, aren't we ONLY supposed to rely on our own observation? Now that those observations appear to prove you wrong, we can't even trust that anymore?
Look up Atmospheric Extinction. It's not what it sounds like, it's the degree to which the atmosphere interferes with light propagation. Enough atmosphere can make stars appear dimmer, and that suggests there's an atmospheric limit to how far one can see. But that limit requires atmosphere _all the way_ to the subject. To see the sun we only look through a few miles of atmosphere. On flat earth, your view would become more and more obscured by atmosphere as it approached the horizon because you're looking through _thousands of miles of air,_ something you can't do on a spherical earth. So you cannot have a sharp horizon on a flat earth, instead the horizon becomes the "color of the air" and blends into the sky and ground.
You would also be able to notice this every time you go up in a tall building or an airplane. Whatever is obscuring the extent of your vision that isn't the horizon, should prevent you from seeing as far from higher elevations as you can from ground level because there is more "interfering matter" in the line of sight looking at something any distance away from from any elevation than there would be looking at that same distance from ground level. After a certain height, you would literally just see blurred nothing at the extent of your vision. There are videos of what this would look like taken from the top of Burj Khalifa during a sandstorm and you can see X distance from your eyes, but than its blurred beyond that. This field of vision is, of course, spherical shaped. Everything should look like a less extreme version of this in the flat earth model, but of course it doesn't.
But you forgot about the Flerfdom, "We don't know what the Sun is." "It is a magical spotlight with a magical lamp shade where the visible light just stops."
And the lampshade is somehow invisible and doesn’t change the shape of the sun at any point in the day, and somehow gets obscured by the horizon at night.
I can see the moon when it's on the horizon but I can't see Africa from the UK. Africa's angular size is much larger than that of the moon so it should be highly visible. Globe confirmed 🌎💯
I use Denmark from Northumbria coast as an example, The only thing in the way is earth curvature, Even at 1000 Feet above Sea level no matter how much refraction it remains hidden.
@@dogwalker666 I'll tell you another case, with a closer distance: the island of Majorca is 115 miles away from mainland Spain. It is not a flat island, there is a 4500 ft high mountain range, the Sierra de Tramuntana, directly facing the continent. Yet, Majorca is not visible from sea level at any place from mainland Spain, despite clear and luminous Mediterranean skies. I have asked why to several flerfs, but (as you surely imagine), never got an answer.
One need to remember that the word «horizon» actually mean circle. Then, it's pretty hard to distinguish the curve of a circle when you sit at it's centre.
Thanks, I didn't know that ... though technically, we've dropped the part meaning "circle" in the original Greek: "late Middle English: via Old French from late Latin horizon, from Greek horizōn (kuklos) ‘limiting (circle)’."
Fairly obvious if you go sailing. The horizon, even from the viewpoint formed by a yacht's deck level forms a circle of 360° all around you. Funny that. It's almost as if the surface of the sea was curving away from you...
The fact that we do see a clear horizon is in itself evidence that the earth isn't flat, unless of course the horizon is the actual edge of the world, which I haven't heard any flat earther claim. Yet.
The answer to this is the thing that's been relegated to a future video: perspective. To put it mildly, there is a large category of arguments regarding the difficulties of reconciling what we can and cannot see with a flat earth model. Some of this is due to what's essentially magic (the earth and moon and stars). But a ton of this is handled by what Parallax declared as aspects of Perspective. It would be fair to suggest that Parallax invented a system of how light supposedly works that no optics company would touch with a ten-foot pole. But supposedly this answers all these issues of why you cannot see all the way to the ice wall as well as how you see ships sail over the horizon.
Perspective... Or Flerfspective... They try to use the Rayleigh criterion (and a lower acute angle) as perspective for a reason to why you can't see far, (they also try to use the inverse square law) and want things disappear bottom first. (And if that was true, the black swan wouldn't exist.. an even lower acute angle and you can see further)

I live on an island in the middle of the Pacific. Saipan. My window overlooks the ocean. I also spent a year at sea on a US Navy ship. Ever since I can remember, I have been able to notice a slight curvature when looking out to sea. Also, from Saipan, on a clear day if you are atop Mt. Tapachau, (elevation 1,500 ft) you can see the top of Anatahan Island (elevation 2000 ft), which is about 78 miles away. But you can not see the base of Anatahan, as one would expect.

Another practical observation I noticed this morning that also buggers up the flat earth - looking out over the ocean from a high altitude, clouds also curve over the horizon and disappear below it. How could this happen on a flat earth? Vanishing point sure doesn't explain it.
For me the dumbest one, and maybe that's not true because they are all tremendously stupid, is that they claim the limitations of our vision s due to anything but the horizon, pollution, refraction, whatever it is. If so, Why can I see further from the top of the CN tower than I can from the ground at the edge of Lake Ontario? If the distance I can see is limited by something other than the horizon, why is it not consistent if the weather/pollution conditions are the same in a very localized area.
Fun fact. I went to Hawaii back in 2018, and at one point we went to a seaside cliff (for wedding photos) where there was nothing on the horizon but water. You could clearly see the curvature looking at the horizon. It was slight, sure, but it was there.
The fact that the horizon is equidistant from the camera in all directions from every high altitude camera, no matter where on earth it is launched, proves that we live on a sphere 😐

One of the main problems with the flat earth belief is that nobody knows how a flat earth should appear. They are unable to draw a simple scale map of a flat earth. If such was possible then a working flat earth model might be presented. However, the flat earth community has no interest in drawing such a map.

No matter how hard you try to convince them, they'll still stay the same. What we really need to do is put all of them into their own little spacecraft. Then, while they’re barreling into the sun, they can look behind them and see the true shape of the Earth.
@@StormsparkPegasus indeed, marc sergent (one of the biggest flat earther) was asked if he would accept that the earth was a ball if we could send him in space and he could see it with his own eyes, and he said no, he would never believe it, even if he could see it. This is quit straight forward, only some of them could accept it, those are the ones who are just questioning and have recently been deceived into this belief. Those who stayed for too long are almost impossible to even talk with. But the worst of them are those like Sergent who literally make tons of money and gain a social status and lots of influence thanks to this. I even struggle to believe that the leaders of the flat earth are flat earthers themselves, and not just straight up lair, when you look at how much money they gained thanks to it.

@@colty7764 mostly the problem is that they don’t care about the shape of the earth. The shape of the earth is extremely inconsequential compared to the fact that god exists, they believe that if the earth is flat then god exists, and god *has* to exist.

And they'll be like "hur hur you don't want to debate so that means I'm right," nope it means you believe in something so stupid that I won't waste my time.
I love how all you're doing here is describing an observation that we would see on both a flat and round earth... And flat earthers just can't help but say you're wrong, simply because they can't accept that curvature is a thing.

Or even that flerthers fail to accept, yet no flerfer can agree with another flerfer in every situation. They always change their arguement according to the question asked and use bs theories to explain why Newton's Laws only apply to one part of the "evidence", but not to the rest
It's kinda funny that a lot of these are great arguments that flat earthers could make as an excuse for why there is a visible curve... yet they still prefer to simply argue that the curve itself is fake.
@@fel-is Whether you believe the Earth to be flat, globular, hollow, concave or otherwise, the freedom to independently travel and explore the Earth, from the North Pole to whatever exists South of the South Pole, to any and everywhere else, should be a fundamental and unalienable right. Military vessels near the North Pole and Antarctica have repeatedly barred independent teams of explorers from traveling into these heavily patrolled and restricted waters. The Antarctic Treaty prevents all independent travel South of the 60th degree South latitude, where rebels like Yarle Andehoy and his team have been repeatedly turned around at gunpoint, jailed and fined for daring to attempt. What is so important in Antarctica that 53 of the most powerful countries in the world have agreed to patrol and enforce harsh restrictions and penalties on anyone who attempts to independently explore it? Why has the entire continent of Antarctica and everywhere else on Earth below the 60th South parallel been caged off from us? The only way we can experience Antarctica is by being a government employee and working at one of their bases, or doing one of their overpriced penguin tours along the Antarctic coast. No one, even these very few humans, is granted the freedom to explore the continent, so even they are clueless as to what may exist at the furthest Southern extents of the Earth. The world's governments, militaries, media, schools and literally everyone else except flat earthers claim with conviction and whole-heartedly believe that the South Pole is the Southernmost extent of their globe. And by definition this must be the case because to continue traveling Southwards beyond this Southernmost point is tantamount to traveling Northwards. If the Earth is not a globe, however, and is actually an extended level plane as claimed by flat earthers, continuing to travel South of the South Pole would not and could not bring the traveler back North; on a flat earth, the traveler would instead continue Southwards into unknown Southern territories that don't exist on a globe. If NASA, the world's governments, militaries, media, academia and/or anyone else involved in maintaining the legitimacy of the globe concept truly wanted to shut up flat earthers once and for all, this is how easy it would be. Allow for independent travel South of the South Pole, or livestream a full South to North circumnavigation of the supposed globe starting in Antarctica and traveling South. Show the world's flat earthers that traveling South of the South Pole will somehow bring you North.
How do Flerfs explain that the night sky comprises different constellations in the Northern and Southern hemispheres? For me this is a clinching argument in favour of the Globe model ... but ... those guys just love winging in from unpredictable angles.
Maybe I missed something from postgalactic's debunk video. His red and white blocks showed that the two metal bars were parallel but he then argued that the line between them, the horizon was not parallel to the bars. The horizon on the left hand side was lower. Surely that is the whole point, two parallel bars with a non-parallel horizon, it dips down on the left. He debunks his own argument.
Exactly, the white block was measuring the gap between the bars (confirming they remain parallel with each other) And the red block measured the gap of the horizon between the bars His confirmation bias just steps in to conclude that the horizon not remaining parallel must be due to a fault with the equipment
I love how if the flat earthers were smarter they could have expected a flat earth to have a curve and use it as proof of their idea, but since they have been saying there is no curve for the longest time it shows that they dont even understand their model.

"Have you watched the video? If you don't believe in the solar system, that means you think the sun orbits above the earth. But if that were true, the sun and moon would be visible all the time. Additionally, a small sun wouldn't be able to conduct nuclear fusion, meaning it wouldn't be able to shine light or do anything. The sun and moon would also not be round, as gravity would not be strong enough to make them so. Furthermore, orbits do not work by going around in circles above things. The moon orbits the globe in a circle around it because it is technically falling around the Earth. This occurs because the moon is going fast enough to fall around the Earth, and there is no friction in space to slow it down. But my main point is this: how do solar eclipses work? The only way for that to happen is if the moon and the sun are perfectly aligned across from each other and orbiting at the same speed. This would only work for a specific location on Earth, and it wouldn't be possible for the rest of the planet. Finally, why would the government want to hide the shape of the Earth? It doesn't make sense. Scientists have gone through years of training to study the Earth and its shape, and their findings are widely accepted. I understand that it may be difficult to accept this information, but please consider the evidence and expertise of scientists. Thank you for your time."
That flaterther said a "quick rush to judgment" as if we weren't just staring at two shapes that you learn in kindergarten😂😂 take all the time you need there buddy
They can't even get past the idea that "debunking" a globe doesn't make them correct. There happen to be more than 2 shapes, and the only one they ever prove is a globe.
I spent last week at the Gulf of Mexico. Looking out at the horizon from the balcony of the house (maybe 10 feet up), the horizon was curved. Very slightly so, but it was still visibly curved. This is what I observed, and as we all know, direct observation means everything, right?
You absolutely can't detect the left to right curve of the horizon with your naked eye from 10' above sea level. At that height, the horizon is about 4.18 miles away (without refraction). If we give you a generous index of refraction, the horizon might appear as much as 4.5 miles away. A human's full field of view is a little under 180°. If we give you the full 180° and a distance to the horizon of 4.5 miles, it's pretty simple math to determine how long the horizon is from that elevation is. The distance to the horizon is a radius, and 180° is half a circle, that means you could see 1/2 of the circumference of a circle with a radius of 4.5 miles. C = 2πr; C = 2(3.14)4.5 = 28.27433 miles. But you could only see half of that, so the total length of the horizon you could see in front of you was 14.13717 miles. Earth's surface curves at a rate of 1°/69 miles, so the total amount of left to right curvature was no more than .205°. The human eye is incapable of detecting .205° of curvature over 4 miles away. Period. This claim is as utterly nonsensical as the flerfing morons who claim that the Earth must be stationary because they can't feel its rotation. The Earth is definitely spherical, but making nonsensical claims that are easily disproven doesn't actually do anything but give flerfing morons more examples of "globers" either lying or not understanding "the model."
@@frocat5163 "You absolutely can't detect the left to right curve of the horizon with your naked eye from 10' above sea level" You can - IF you got a reference. Same as you can not detect the sun and the moon being the same angular size unless you either have them right next to each other or something else that you can use as a reference. "so the total amount of left to right curvature was no more than .205°." And human visual acuity is - drumroll - about 1 arc minute - that is 1/60th of a degree that we can see. And that is not even accounting for various effects that can significantly enhance this. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked_eye We are quite good at detecting even the slightest defects if we have something to compare it to. of course the curve is miniscul and without a reference and specifically looking for that you would never notice.

Weird how they think there is a "limit" to one's vision...yet your altitude also affects the "limit". Do they think our eyes abilities are directly linked to how tall you are? Shoot, you'll put all the optometrists out of work if you just give everyone stilts😂
Weird how you don't understand vision limitations at all. If there are no limitations to our vision, why then, can one not see a quarter on the ground from say an airplane and read the year of the quarter on it? "Because it's too small and too far away" Oh, so there are limitations to our vision due to distance and size of objects, got it.
@@zefferss Theres no limitations in terms of distance limitation. Perspective still exists. You can zoom with a camera or telescope. Really tricky without getting taken out of context
I was actually working on a very similar video, but luckily this was different enough. I am focusing on how a flat earth would actually look, no crisp horizon, everywhere you look, the distance would be dark and hazy, as all the atmosphere moisture builds up, clouds build up, and the land masses fade into each other. I think the BEST example I can think of, is like being in Vegas, with the mountains all around creating a weird sensation of like being in a bowl. It is funny how Flat Earthers claim you wouldn't see that stuff, because of "perspective" haha, but perspective REQUIRES a horizon!
And just another point, I have never come across a flattie who actually understands and can illustrate exactly how perspective works. For something that is underpinning their ideology, you would think they would know a bit about it. But no, not in flerfville.
@@JohnSmith-ux3tt They treat "perspective" like a magic word that papers over the difference between what optics tells us to expect on a flat earth and what we actually see; if they actually engaged with an understanding of how perspective works, they couldn't pretend it makes sense as an excuse anymore.

You know I've always said that I don't really care what people choose to believe. It has no bearing on my life.

She went to work for the FBI in Oklahoma City in a time when it was extremely male dominated. She had to move to Dallas for 2 years when Kennedy was assassinated to to work on the investigation. I can't stress enough the hurtles she had to overcome to make that happen just due the total isolation aspect alone. She's almost 90 now and her mind is still pretty sharp but she has a hard time making things make sense sometimes. She got exposed to the whole flat earth idea on the internet in the last couple years and it perfectly demonstrated, to me, when the algorithm keeps feeding you MORE of what you just watched until it appears that everyone must think like that...a type of radicalization almost. In the big picture what does it matter what an old woman thinks? I've know her for 55 years and this particular decline makes me very sad. My mother was never a scientist, but for 85 years she damn well knew what shape the earth was!
The fact that they need a different theory for every observation and the standard model explains all of them should be enough for anyone, but they are flat earthers so the obvious just doesn’t make sense
why would be infinite ice around the earth and yet we still have global worming, and why the sun effect only the ice on the flat earth and not on the edges
The reason no flat-earther will describe what shape they think the Earth actually is, is so that they can always move the goalposts. If they produced a map or a model for their version of the flat-earth, then it could be tested and disproven. But if they don't state their position, then they haven't produced enough information to be definitively debunked and can always accuse scientists of attacking a straw-man instead of 'what they actually believe'
'flat in the gaps'

Don't expect rationality from flerfs. Flat earth is a mental illness mixed with total idiocy.
Trying to convince a flat earther they're wrong only pushes them deeper into the delusion. The problem is some people just find it impossible to admit that they got something wrong. They would rather double-down on their bias.
They dont even dare to comment about your response while the other comments have responses from the flat erthers😂
Trying to argue with flat earthers is a lost cause. You don't need to waste all that time. Nobody knows that to actually inform a person, you cannot simply refute their points. You need to get them to understand your words in their own context.
The main reason its hard to impossible to convince a flat earther is that they revel in being the victim of a conspiracy since if the majority of the world is working to deceive you, then your not to blame for failing at life :).
I knew a man who was a flat eather briefly, and had a tendency to fall into conspiracy theories. His defense was that it didn’t matter what he said because ‘everyone was gonna say I was wrong anyway.’ These people categorize themselves as separate from everyone else and determine that the world is out to get them. Flat earther conspiracies make them feel smart when they know deep down that they aren’t actually smart, and someone questioning the validity of that knowledge is not only challenging their knowledge, but their ego as well. They’re immature children masquerading as functioning adults.

Between any other pair of points not on the same meridian: not so much.
So this type of map projection is favored by radio operators, just with their own location in the center instead of the north pole, that gives them easy information on in what direction, and how far away, other radio stations are.

"all navigation is controlled by a globe propaganda machine. "
How does the government control something you can do by yourself?
It comes down to "It doesn't agree with my preconceived notion, so it can't exist". When postgalactic noticed the curve after he messed with the image trying to make it agree with his beliefs, (which seems like cheating?) he just chose to ignore it. His response was "I refuse to believe the evidence of my eyes, so it's wrong for some reason I can't articulate". Seems really sad, to me.
Possibly cognitive dissonance? Could be a few other biases too. I think it's worth keeping in mind that all of us can make similar mistakes. Our brains are really bad at this stuff, flat earth is just an extreme example.
It's no point arguing with idiots. You can shoot flatearthers into the orbit and they will either claim, that the windows are TV panels or / and they've been drugged over the air to see things that aren't there.

Been awhile since I saw a "limit if the eye's range" argument. What I've always loved about it is that if it were true, the higher up you get the shorter your view of the ground should be, so lookout towers and crowsnests would actually be WORSE at spotting things.
Lol yeah, it would be like playing a game with very low render distance....
Because our personal visible-horizon at any given point in time remains fixed, on a Flat-Earth Model that would indeed make Elevation-for-Spotting a Failed Endeavor because at Best absolutely nothing would ever have changed or been more beneficial in that scenario (or else it would've been Made Worse, as you said). Whereas in reality, here on Actual Earth, elevation still doesn't change the fact that our personal visible-horizon stays with fixed with us, But it does allow that visible-horizon to potentially reach its actual practical-maximum by virtue of Looking Over the Curvature.
Yeah, because atmospheric density isn't a thing, or weather, or light reflection/refraction limiting or ability to see past a certain distance or angular size of objects further away. Flat or globe, these same issues are at play.
@@zefferss those are different than the "limit of the eye's range" argument flerfers try to claim, which is that the eye can see an exact distance and no further and thats why we have a horizon.

Flat earther: If you cant observe it it isnt true. Also flat earthers: Look you can see the curve. Yes but your observations can be wrong.

You can see the curve, go to the ocean and take a picture of the horizon across as much of the shot as possible.

Agreed. The longest horizon you can see normally shows a curve amounting to about ⅛°. Normally that cannot be detected by the naked eye, but is obvious from a centred photograph with horizontal compression.

Not entirely True. Round Earthers also rely on mathematical models and physics that predict where other objects in space will be based on size and shape of other objects in space, as well as observations that show said objects are in fact where they should be... The planet Neptune was actually discovered in 1846 using said methods.

I like that you actually add some new arguments to this “debate.” Flat earth era constantly going on about perspective and lens tricks, but it’s so great to have a photography expert debunking the observation and visual arguments of flathearthers. I think this is actually a better approach than trying to debunk their arguments with simple to complex science because the heart of all of their arguments is “I can’t observe it.” Well done
I love Flat Earth's comment (long at the bottom). "No one will go there. It's too cold. This is the size of land Byrd says there is. It's an estimate, and we can't know."

Look up Atmospheric Extinction. It's not what it sounds like, it's the degree to which the atmosphere interferes with light propagation. Enough atmosphere can make stars appear dimmer, and that suggests there's an atmospheric limit to how far one can see. But that limit requires atmosphere _all the way_ to the subject. To see the sun we only look through a few miles of atmosphere.
On flat earth, your view would become more and more obscured by atmosphere as it approached the horizon because you're looking through _thousands of miles of air,_ something you can't do on a spherical earth. So you cannot have a sharp horizon on a flat earth, instead the horizon becomes the "color of the air" and blends into the sky and ground.
You would also be able to notice this every time you go up in a tall building or an airplane. Whatever is obscuring the extent of your vision that isn't the horizon, should prevent you from seeing as far from higher elevations as you can from ground level because there is more "interfering matter" in the line of sight looking at something any distance away from from any elevation than there would be looking at that same distance from ground level.
After a certain height, you would literally just see blurred nothing at the extent of your vision. There are videos of what this would look like taken from the top of Burj Khalifa during a sandstorm and you can see X distance from your eyes, but than its blurred beyond that. This field of vision is, of course, spherical shaped. Everything should look like a less extreme version of this in the flat earth model, but of course it doesn't.
But you forgot about the Flerfdom, "We don't know what the Sun is." "It is a magical spotlight with a magical lamp shade where the visible light just stops."
And the lampshade is somehow invisible and doesn’t change the shape of the sun at any point in the day, and somehow gets obscured by the horizon at night.
I can see the moon when it's on the horizon but I can't see Africa from the UK. Africa's angular size is much larger than that of the moon so it should be highly visible.
Globe confirmed 🌎💯
In fact, if you go to Gibraltar, you can see Africa from the UK.... Still, yeah, go globe!

That is much better than "because France is in the way" which was an answer from a flerf.

@@dogwalker666 I'll tell you another case, with a closer distance: the island of Majorca is 115 miles away from mainland Spain. It is not a flat island, there is a 4500 ft high mountain range, the Sierra de Tramuntana, directly facing the continent. Yet, Majorca is not visible from sea level at any place from mainland Spain, despite clear and luminous Mediterranean skies.
I have asked why to several flerfs, but (as you surely imagine), never got an answer.
@@betaorionis2164 Funny how they never answer.
One need to remember that the word «horizon» actually mean circle.
Then, it's pretty hard to distinguish the curve of a circle when you sit at it's centre.
Thanks, I didn't know that ... though technically, we've dropped the part meaning "circle" in the original Greek:
"late Middle English: via Old French from late Latin horizon, from Greek horizōn (kuklos) ‘limiting (circle)’."
Fairly obvious if you go sailing. The horizon, even from the viewpoint formed by a yacht's deck level forms a circle of 360° all around you. Funny that. It's almost as if the surface of the sea was curving away from you...
The fact that we do see a clear horizon is in itself evidence that the earth isn't flat,
unless of course the horizon is the actual edge of the world, which I haven't heard any flat earther claim. Yet.
The answer to this is the thing that's been relegated to a future video: perspective.
To put it mildly, there is a large category of arguments regarding the difficulties of reconciling what we can and cannot see with a flat earth model. Some of this is due to what's essentially magic (the earth and moon and stars). But a ton of this is handled by what Parallax declared as aspects of Perspective. It would be fair to suggest that Parallax invented a system of how light supposedly works that no optics company would touch with a ten-foot pole. But supposedly this answers all these issues of why you cannot see all the way to the ice wall as well as how you see ships sail over the horizon.
Perspective... Or Flerfspective...
They try to use the Rayleigh criterion (and a lower acute angle) as perspective for a reason to why you can't see far, (they also try to use the inverse square law) and want things disappear bottom first. (And if that was true, the black swan wouldn't exist.. an even lower acute angle and you can see further)

I live on an island in the middle of the Pacific. Saipan. My window overlooks the ocean. I also spent a year at sea on a US Navy ship. Ever since I can remember, I have been able to notice a slight curvature when looking out to sea. Also, from Saipan, on a clear day if you are atop Mt. Tapachau, (elevation 1,500 ft) you can see the top of Anatahan Island (elevation 2000 ft), which is about 78 miles away. But you can not see the base of Anatahan, as one would expect. The green flash you can see at sunset also proves earth isn't flat.
My office is on the 2nd floor, so the view of the ocean I see daily is elevated. My Flat Earth friends say "NO YOU CAN'T" when I point to the ocean and point out how I can see a curve.

"The test shows that the ocean curves, so this observation is wrong"
Another practical observation I noticed this morning that also buggers up the flat earth - looking out over the ocean from a high altitude, clouds also curve over the horizon and disappear below it. How could this happen on a flat earth? Vanishing point sure doesn't explain it.
For me the dumbest one, and maybe that's not true because they are all tremendously stupid, is that they claim the limitations of our vision s due to anything but the horizon, pollution, refraction, whatever it is. If so, Why can I see further from the top of the CN tower than I can from the ground at the edge of Lake Ontario? If the distance I can see is limited by something other than the horizon, why is it not consistent if the weather/pollution conditions are the same in a very localized area.
Fun fact. I went to Hawaii back in 2018, and at one point we went to a seaside cliff (for wedding photos) where there was nothing on the horizon but water. You could clearly see the curvature looking at the horizon. It was slight, sure, but it was there.

@@the_flat_earth_warriorz He literally shows it in the video. You can see it. Open your eyes, you've literally been duped yourself.
@Ellie Johnson i shot Chicago from 30 miles away missing 600 ft curvature...should only see half the buildings, see the bases ...
@@the_flat_earth_warriorz Cool. Make a video about it, document your process, and upload it.
spheres are scary
I like that this video embodies pure common sense and logic that flerfers still fail to realize lol... others like Sci man Dan sometimes over complicate their responses which obviously no flerfer would comprehend lol with this video, they're just no diputing any info given lol
Or even that flerthers fail to accept, yet no flerfer can agree with another flerfer in every situation. They always change their arguement according to the question asked and use bs theories to explain why Newton's Laws only apply to one part of the "evidence", but not to the rest
Dan definitely does not overcomplicate anything. His videos are the same as these.
It's kinda funny that a lot of these are great arguments that flat earthers could make as an excuse for why there is a visible curve... yet they still prefer to simply argue that the curve itself is fake.
There is no curve on a flat and level surface. Those claiming it is belong to a ment al inst

@@fel-is you need a proof of a real ice? What are you smoking?
@@Globeishoaxx thats clearly not what i asked for lol
@@fel-is Whether you believe the Earth to be flat, globular, hollow, concave or otherwise, the freedom to independently travel and explore the Earth, from the North Pole to whatever exists South of the South Pole, to any and everywhere else, should be a fundamental and unalienable right. Military vessels near the North Pole and Antarctica have repeatedly barred independent teams of explorers from traveling into these heavily patrolled and restricted waters. The Antarctic Treaty prevents all independent travel South of the 60th degree South latitude, where rebels like Yarle Andehoy and his team have been repeatedly turned around at gunpoint, jailed and fined for daring to attempt.
What is so important in Antarctica that 53 of the most powerful countries in the world have agreed to patrol and enforce harsh restrictions and penalties on anyone who attempts to independently explore it?
Why has the entire continent of Antarctica and everywhere else on Earth below the 60th South parallel been caged off from us? The only way we can experience Antarctica is by being a government employee and working at one of their bases, or doing one of their overpriced penguin tours along the Antarctic coast. No one, even these very few humans, is granted the freedom to explore the continent, so even they are clueless as to what may exist at the furthest Southern extents of the Earth.
The world's governments, militaries, media, schools and literally everyone else except flat earthers claim with conviction and whole-heartedly believe that the South Pole is the Southernmost extent of their globe.
And by definition this must be the case because to continue traveling Southwards beyond this
Southernmost point is tantamount to traveling
Northwards. If the Earth is not a globe, however, and is actually an extended level plane as claimed by flat earthers, continuing to travel South of the South Pole would not and could not bring the traveler back North; on a flat earth, the traveler would instead continue Southwards into unknown Southern territories that don't exist on a globe. If NASA, the world's governments, militaries, media, academia and/or anyone else involved in maintaining the legitimacy of the globe concept truly wanted to shut up flat earthers once and for all, this is how easy it would be. Allow for independent travel South of the South Pole, or livestream a full South to North circumnavigation of the supposed globe starting in Antarctica and traveling South. Show the world's flat earthers that traveling South of the South Pole will somehow bring you North.
How do Flerfs explain that the night sky comprises different constellations in the Northern and Southern hemispheres? For me this is a clinching argument in favour of the Globe model ... but ... those guys just love winging in from unpredictable angles.
Maybe I missed something from postgalactic's debunk video. His red and white blocks showed that the two metal bars were parallel but he then argued that the line between them, the horizon was not parallel to the bars. The horizon on the left hand side was lower. Surely that is the whole point, two parallel bars with a non-parallel horizon, it dips down on the left. He debunks his own argument.
Exactly, the white block was measuring the gap between the bars (confirming they remain parallel with each other)
And the red block measured the gap of the horizon between the bars
His confirmation bias just steps in to conclude that the horizon not remaining parallel must be due to a fault with the equipment
I love how if the flat earthers were smarter they could have expected a flat earth to have a curve and use it as proof of their idea, but since they have been saying there is no curve for the longest time it shows that they dont even understand their model.

The "evidence" that the horizon is flat isn't evidence for flat Earth.
If anything it would better support the Earth being slightly concave, since the horizon would have to curve upward to be perfectly level with your eyes.

The Globe observed, demonstrated, measured, recorded, Confirmed.
Flerfs Can't provide a Single experiment, that follows the scientific method, that can be repeated to get the same results, that demonstrates the Earth is flat, Not a globe. Because Flat Earth isn't a Theory, it's a Belief.
It's time you realized you're being conned by Flerfs.
You will ignore All the clear, testable, observable evidence I provided, because you Don't want to know the Truth. You want to protect your Belief based on Faith.
"You got to Lie to Flerf".
You're lying to everyone here, but worse, you're Lying to yourself, and that's the pathetic part...
@@redditsucksyo False. Read the treaty.
Flat Earther: I'm going to prove this wrong by doing an experiment!
Experiment Results: "There's a curve!"
Flat Earther: Well that experiment clearly doesn't work right. Onto the next!
Yea I hate when that happens
'this experiment doesn't produce the results I want therefore it's a bad experiment'
More importantly, if the Earth was flat there wouldn't even _be_ a horizon. Only if you were close enough to the edge to see it.
There is a cool video from salt lakes. After the rain it’s a giant mirror of the sky. You clearly see where they meet
According to "The Flat Earth Theory" people have a default render distance.
We just need to figure out how many chunks is it. 😅
Flat earth is not a theory. It simply means globe is a lie
@@Globeishoaxx No, it's a statement about the shape of the Earth. "flat", and "Earth". It's that fucking simple.
"Have you watched the video? If you don't believe in the solar system, that means you think the sun orbits above the earth. But if that were true, the sun and moon would be visible all the time. Additionally, a small sun wouldn't be able to conduct nuclear fusion, meaning it wouldn't be able to shine light or do anything. The sun and moon would also not be round, as gravity would not be strong enough to make them so.
Furthermore, orbits do not work by going around in circles above things. The moon orbits the globe in a circle around it because it is technically falling around the Earth. This occurs because the moon is going fast enough to fall around the Earth, and there is no friction in space to slow it down.
But my main point is this: how do solar eclipses work? The only way for that to happen is if the moon and the sun are perfectly aligned across from each other and orbiting at the same speed. This would only work for a specific location on Earth, and it wouldn't be possible for the rest of the planet.
Finally, why would the government want to hide the shape of the Earth? It doesn't make sense. Scientists have gone through years of training to study the Earth and its shape, and their findings are widely accepted. I understand that it may be difficult to accept this information, but please consider the evidence and expertise of scientists. Thank you for your time."
@@thefilthyegg397who are you talking to?
@@Globehoax YOU, you deleted your comment, just read my comment and form an opinion and stop being so stubborn. I tried to be nice in the comment.
That flaterther said a "quick rush to judgment" as if we weren't just staring at two shapes that you learn in kindergarten😂😂 take all the time you need there buddy
How can people think the earth is flat. It is not even level. Surely mountains are the clue.
Al Murray.
Means it’s not a globe.
@@GlobeishoaxxIt is a globe. You have no proof otherwise.
They can't even get past the idea that "debunking" a globe doesn't make them correct. There happen to be more than 2 shapes, and the only one they ever prove is a globe.
I spent last week at the Gulf of Mexico. Looking out at the horizon from the balcony of the house (maybe 10 feet up), the horizon was curved. Very slightly so, but it was still visibly curved. This is what I observed, and as we all know, direct observation means everything, right?
You absolutely can't detect the left to right curve of the horizon with your naked eye from 10' above sea level. At that height, the horizon is about 4.18 miles away (without refraction). If we give you a generous index of refraction, the horizon might appear as much as 4.5 miles away. A human's full field of view is a little under 180°. If we give you the full 180° and a distance to the horizon of 4.5 miles, it's pretty simple math to determine how long the horizon is from that elevation is. The distance to the horizon is a radius, and 180° is half a circle, that means you could see 1/2 of the circumference of a circle with a radius of 4.5 miles. C = 2πr; C = 2(3.14)4.5 = 28.27433 miles. But you could only see half of that, so the total length of the horizon you could see in front of you was 14.13717 miles. Earth's surface curves at a rate of 1°/69 miles, so the total amount of left to right curvature was no more than .205°. The human eye is incapable of detecting .205° of curvature over 4 miles away. Period. This claim is as utterly nonsensical as the flerfing morons who claim that the Earth must be stationary because they can't feel its rotation.
The Earth is definitely spherical, but making nonsensical claims that are easily disproven doesn't actually do anything but give flerfing morons more examples of "globers" either lying or not understanding "the model."
@@frocat5163 "You absolutely can't detect the left to right curve of the horizon with your naked eye from 10' above sea level"
You can - IF you got a reference.
Same as you can not detect the sun and the moon being the same angular size unless you either have them right next to each other or something else that you can use as a reference.
"so the total amount of left to right curvature was no more than .205°."
And human visual acuity is - drumroll - about 1 arc minute - that is 1/60th of a degree that we can see. And that is not even accounting for various effects that can significantly enhance this. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked_eye
We are quite good at detecting even the slightest defects if we have something to compare it to.
of course the curve is miniscul and without a reference and specifically looking for that you would never notice.
Nonono, it has to be repeatable, and you’re not there anymore so you can’t repeat, checkmate you disflatearther
(Still got some interpunction, will never learn to write in proper flatearthian)
Flerfs: "you're just a mason paid by NASA"
False. You did not see the horizon curve
Weird how they think there is a "limit" to one's vision...yet your altitude also affects the "limit". Do they think our eyes abilities are directly linked to how tall you are? Shoot, you'll put all the optometrists out of work if you just give everyone stilts😂
Weird how you don't understand vision limitations at all. If there are no limitations to our vision, why then, can one not see a quarter on the ground from say an airplane and read the year of the quarter on it? "Because it's too small and too far away" Oh, so there are limitations to our vision due to distance and size of objects, got it.
@@zefferss Theres no limitations in terms of distance limitation. Perspective still exists. You can zoom with a camera or telescope. Really tricky without getting taken out of context
I was actually working on a very similar video, but luckily this was different enough. I am focusing on how a flat earth would actually look, no crisp horizon, everywhere you look, the distance would be dark and hazy, as all the atmosphere moisture builds up, clouds build up, and the land masses fade into each other. I think the BEST example I can think of, is like being in Vegas, with the mountains all around creating a weird sensation of like being in a bowl. It is funny how Flat Earthers claim you wouldn't see that stuff, because of "perspective" haha, but perspective REQUIRES a horizon!
The presence of a clear horizon line is, indeed, evidence of a curve.
And just another point, I have never come across a flattie who actually understands and can illustrate exactly how perspective works. For something that is underpinning their ideology, you would think they would know a bit about it. But no, not in flerfville.
@@JohnSmith-ux3tt They treat "perspective" like a magic word that papers over the difference between what optics tells us to expect on a flat earth and what we actually see; if they actually engaged with an understanding of how perspective works, they couldn't pretend it makes sense as an excuse anymore.
I’ve stood on a high peak, and I saw a curve. I’ve stood on the East coast and watched the Sunrise, and on the West coast and seen the sunset. In both cases I saw the curve. I saw the curve from a helicopter when I was high above Niagara Falls with the doors open, and there was nothing to interfere. They whole idea is so nonsensical. I can take telescope and zoom in on rings of Saturn.
Saturn is very close. Solar system is a myth. Horizontal curve is just a limitation of your observation. Earth is freaking huge, fool
@@GlobeishoaxxSays the fool who thinks a globe denier is different to a flat earther.

You know I've always said that I don't really care what people choose to believe. It has no bearing on my life. BUT, my mother, who pulled her self up from poor, old world, almost dust bowl level, country, sharecropper, in 1940s/50s Oklahoma, to be the first of the family to go to college and the first to go to the "big city" to be a working woman. She went to work for the FBI in Oklahoma City in a time when it was extremely male dominated. She had to move to Dallas for 2 years when Kennedy was assassinated to to work on the investigation. I can't stress enough the hurtles she had to overcome to make that happen just due the total isolation aspect alone. She's almost 90 now and her mind is still pretty sharp but she has a hard time making things make sense sometimes. She got exposed to the whole flat earth idea on the internet in the last couple years and it perfectly demonstrated, to me, when the algorithm keeps feeding you MORE of what you just watched until it appears that everyone must think like that...a type of radicalization almost. In the big picture what does it matter what an old woman thinks? I've know her for 55 years and this particular decline makes me very sad. My mother was never a scientist, but for 85 years she damn well knew what shape the earth was!
The fact that they need a different theory for every observation and the standard model explains all of them should be enough for anyone, but they are flat earthers so the obvious just doesn’t make sense
Does small and local sun make sense?
@@Globehoax We can measure the distance to the sun and find that it is at 150 million km, so no, a small and local sun does not make sense.
