This is stupid
If your in a car and throw a ball up it travels with you as it has forward velocity to begin with
don't be stupid
So if you think the air in the Earth is the same as the air in your enclosed car, you are stupid. Why dont you throw that ball up in a convertible and see if you can grab it still?
In this video - the user shows how ships dont actually go over the Curve to the other side - but actually disappear and get smaller and smaller and melt into the the Line of Convergence or the Horizon - where the sky meets the Earth.
Also, i thought this was an interesting comparison - I wonder where he got his inspiration from:

Also in this video - which also shows the sun does not disappear behind the curve, it just gets smaller and smaller - until it disappears into the horizon

Earth is flat, gravity doesn't exist.
