Except you magically assumed the angle is 45 degrees. Yeah, the tangent line is always at 90 to the radius, but the angle the person is looking at depends on their size. As you shrink the person down, the viewing angle will approach 90 as well. In other words, for a very small person on a very large world, the viewing angle to see the horizon will be almost 90 degrees, making the person look straight ahead of them and making the horizon appear to be at eye level. Which, amazingly, is exactly what happens in the real world.


Not magically assumed, he drew a triangle to show how to calculate the distance to the horizon: If the angle at the horizon is always 90° , then in order to view to view it will never equal 90° on ball earth.

Are you blind? Don't you see the triangle to determine the perspective he drew?

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with (at least) two equal sides and one of the angles is shown to be 90° and the 3 angles on the inside of a triangle always add to 180°

This number is what he is saying with this drawing and then he uses the 90° symbol to make you think its correct.

If the angle at the horizon is 90° and the angle to view the horizon is 90° you get a flat line - not a triangle that proves your flawed thinking that a 2 d side view of ball earth can explain a 3 dimensional perspective that is only explainable by referring to the third axis of perspective.

This proves that Heliotards think the Horizon is the curve of the earth and how flawed their logic is, its beyond stupid.

If it was in the Science section, there would be more spam and rage and trolling, people are more prejudice over flat earth than race, sex, and weight combined.

Thank you.

Why do you divide it by two? This implies that the angle at the top of your drawing equals the angle in the middle of the circle. What is that assumption based on?


I'm waiting for a reply to this question still.

The only thing this proves is that you (and probably other flat earthers) lack even a high-school understanding of ... well... pretty much anything. Certainly physics and geometry, at least.
Here, look at the picture below and tell me if the viewing angle is the same for both of these people:


Do you think Person A has the same viewing angle as Person B? And if not, what happens to this viewing angle as the person becomes smaller and smaller relative to the circle?

Actually, he already has one there too. And another in PaRD.

He's desperate to show he's special where other people aren't, and he doesn't care if that "being special" means he should wear a helmet 24 hours a day and keep the windows washed.

thats not true. people just think over it for some time and come to a conclusion.
because it differs with yours, you cannot stop calling others stupid :rolleyes:

a lot of different and intelligent users already posted here, that this is a hoax.

The science section just calls you on your bullshit and lack of evidence. The reason you get so much hatred there is because many people have taken great care to hold your hand and walk you through actual evidence and you respond by calling them an idiot and posting yet another shitty youtube video that also has no evidence.
