Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Since flat earther are always looking for simple experiments, this is a very nice one. They obviously don't have the accuracy for that in the video, but this can be used to demonstrate that the earth is not flat. A flat earth would mean that the line to the horizon is always at 0°, so any deviation from that necessarily implies the existence of some curvature.

Horizon still not rising to eye-level I see.
Oh no, my cubit!
