This is a trick of perspective you see just see over water, if the earth is really curving would you see that when the lake water is not present?


Dope. Smoke another one?

How bad is your downs?

Can you work and take care of yourself?

Or do you need someone to do, well everything for you?

How about this pic? It's my own personal pic, I took it myself. (2013 Kilimanjaro summit)


OFC this was BEFORE the earth was flat, since you know, flat earth has only been around for 3 years.

That explains why there is a curve.

I didnt know they let your kind in a plane but it looks like a wide angle lense shot though curved glass showing the circular perspective

Nope was just a normal camera on my phone.

Try again?

Also please take the time to spell check yourself.

-edit

If the lense was curved why does it only effect the horizon?

Camera phones use a wide angle lense, a wide angle lense will affect the entire perspective but you notice it more in the horizon - the more wide angle it is, the more it will curve the horizon

Not mine, also proof?

-edit

BTW the curve snapped a photo of, was visible IRL at the time when I took the photo.

Are the lenses in my eyeballs causing the curve?

i can tell thats a wide angle lense from the angle of view available, as for proof you can try google or ask ask one who knows about photography

Sure you can. :rofl:

Nice dodge potato man.

What about the view, when i saw the curve in REAL time with my own eyeballs, BEFORE and AFTER i snapped that picture?

Was the curve visible through my eyes caused by the curve of the lenses inside my eyeballs?

I was on foot, we climbed to the summit, camped for a night, and climbed back down.

I saw the curve, while my feet were on the ground, from 19000 feet with my naked eyes, and snapped the picture you see above, with my phone.
There is ZERO difference between what I saw with my eyes, and what is in that picture.

I also saw the curve while i was in the plane form NY to Kilimanjaro.

18 hours of near 40000 feet. Lots of curve.

Total trip cost, just under 5grand.

Cost for airplane tickets from NY to Tanzania was about 600$ at the time.

The rest was gear, training, hotel fees, rental car, guide, etc.

i just think its the lense + a view of your circular perspective + your faith we live on a ball

lots of people claim to see the curve in airplanes but you its just the passengers windows - the ones the pilots use are the ones you need to look though
