Curious, is the sun flat too?
That is an excellent question!
"They" say that they acknowledge that Mars is spherical. I assume the same for the sun... only Earth is "special".

So when a person flies around the world...

You can't actually get a rocket to go there, because in a vacuum, there's nothing for the propellant to push against. The moon landing and Mars probes were faked.
So many unsaved here!
The height he achieved is truly pathetic. Why doesn't he just get a plane ticket? He'd get much higher.

Seems more like trolling to me.Throughout the weekend, multiple competing models of Earth shapes were suggested, including “classic” flat Earth, domes, ice walls, diamonds, puddles with multiple worlds inside, and even the Earth as the inside of a giant cosmic egg. However, the discussion often did not revolve around the models on offer, but on broader issues of attitudes towards existing structures of knowledge, and the institutions that supported and presented these structures.

In the 21st century, we are witnessing another important shift in both power and knowledge due to factors that include the increased public platforms afforded by social media. Knowledge is no longer centrally controlled and—as has been pointed out in the wake of Brexit—the age of the expert may be passing. Now, everybody has the power to create and share content. When Michael Gove, a leading proponent of Brexit, proclaimed: “I think the people of this country have had enough of experts,” it would seem that he, in many ways, meant it.

Again, this theme occurred throughout the weekend. Flat-Earthers were encouraged to trust “poetry, freedom, passion, vividness, creativity, and yearning” over the more clinical regurgitation of established theories and facts. Attendees were told that “hope changes everything,” and warned against blindly trusting what they were told. This is a narrative echoed by some of the celebrities who have used their power to back flat-Earth beliefs, such as the musician B.O.B, who tweeted: “Don’t believe what I say, research what I say.”

Well, he didn't kill himself. Didn't get high enough to see the curvature, though.

Why insist on height to see curvature? Breadth of angle should suffice. I go to the beach many days and most of those days as I visually scan the horizon I become aware of curvature. A combination of height and angle would yield even better results. What bums me is disregard of ships disappearing, hull first, as they move away from the coast.
Yeah, probably already posted.
Mad Mike is dead. Who killed him? No doubt it was all planned by deep state who controls the matrix and didn't want to be exposed.
What do you think a good epitaph might be?
