Imagine if our reality is not a 'universe' but that this "Earth" itself is the undeniable floor of the reality and that reality actually is fundamentally ice.
Gravity is just a given. What's deep deep down below could easily be what we say is 'empty space above' and is not worth digging into.
Just imagine, just for one second, that the North Pole is the centre of our world and for whatever reason there's a section of the ice-scape that has been carved out here... perhaps to experiment something socially, who knows.
Now imagine that Antarctica is the outer edge of this world and that really Antarctica extends to the rest of reality in a 360 degree rotation of endless possible directions. The North Pole is different magnetically to the south pole as this power is unique to ice and in the end we are doomed to be frozen over (this part is even true in round earth theory).
The original humans, among them a few, realised that the secret to immortality lied in the consumption of the North Pole's water/ice. They also realised that they can only maintain power over the rest if they designed a world model that would make everyone feel there'd be absolutely no point in moving to the center of either pole (I think they found a couple of other 'worlds' on their adventures in what they call the Dinosaur times where there was much less ice and more chaos).
So, there came another issue... Humans were starting to melt the ice caps... This is EXTREMELY BAD for their ability to keep us as farm animals. They are essentially what folklore calls vampires. Vampires are real. The North pole ice/water grants them super strength, speed, intelligence and a lust to abuse us lesser beings over and over again. The more you drink, the paler you get (Obama extremely pale for a black guy, white people run the world etc). So... why not ingeniously combine the invented globe Earth model with the notion of global warming and blame a REAL WAY TO BREAK FREE OF THIS FARM (the greenhouse effect which would melt the fences of our life as cattle slowly) and then to come up with some mumbo jumbo about why the world warming is a bad thing.
The truth of the matter is, even if there are aliens (AKA Werewolves/Hybrids/Shapeshifters/Psychic Telekinetic controlling Telepaths... Idk) that are even superior to the 'superior humans (AKA Vampires)' there seems to be some link between us breaking out of the ice via the 'south way', or rather reaching the centre of the 'north way' and becoming strong as them and us being a threat to them in some shape or form.
Essentially, the flat earth theory is that the ice is the key to reality and the entire globe earth model and everything that is going along with it is a way of keeping us tame.

"and why would "hiding flat earth" be a thing astronauts needed to do? is there any benefit from faking space videos? "
A pretty good paycheck?

Even mainstream media is hinting it...

" and nothing is physically stopping you filming and surpassing this "ice wall"?"

" i understand you're not claiming to actually believe the flat earth theory, but you "understand" it."
Maybe you have me confused.
have you not considered the factual evidence of the opposing side? "
Yes, for about 3 years now it only strengthens my belief system.
"what makes you understand something that is only believed by like, i don't know the actual number but a very small % of population"

the wall you speak of. the edge, is certainly the less confusing part (no really it is, the north pole's secret is the ultimate thing to find out, escaping the earth and ripping a hole in the hunger-games style fabric will only anger the gods/aliens/demons and not be how we outplay and negotiate with them).
The edge of the earth is invisible. why? The sky isn't the real sky. What you see above you and beyond land-based things is a screen like a cinema screen but of a somewhat curved sense. It can fake being more curved than it really is and even fake being the edge of land at time (at the sides that curve down). It is so advanced it can alter what you see relative even the the guy standing next to you (this is not what Erfisflat says, this is me, I am more hardcore about this now).
The beings that made this puzzle are not inherently evil. They probably are quite unemotional overall and very objective and fair in judgement. The Greek or Norse kind of philosophy with many god-beings hidden in the north pole where we'll never get tot hem is much closer to the reality (or maybe just outside the 'screen' that you call the sky'). There is a recurring theme in all religions, even Buddhism that has no god. The creator and supreme force(s) in reality are all 'above' 'up' they are 'in a place you only get to go when you show them respect and perseverance'. The evil beings are always 'down, under, where you never want to go or end up'. It's easy to assume this is up past the sky or down in the 'hot core' of the Earth but no. it is what happens if you are able to scratch the edge of the dome. The actual edge will appear as an endless thing. It's possible it even has capacity to stretch as you walk into it and possible it even ENDLESSLY stretches until the gods approve you to see what's beyond. On the other hand, the north pole is the 'inner circle' where the 'eye' (by the way, depending on your country and time of night when it's a full moon it may appear upside down or to the right or left but the eye of Horus, as in the Illuminati's all-seeing eye is literally what the grey on the moon is, seriously look at it on a clear full-moon night and swivel your head. Photos on medium quality cameras like smartphones can't show the shining of the eye's white well, the actual eye symbol only shows by purely seeing hte real shine.
The edge isn't something you even want to find. The key to heaven, paradise or a better parallel universe is in the north pole's core.

Pic Gaspard is photographed some 276 miles away from Pic de Finestrelles. Using the earth curve calculator with an observer height of 9,272 feet, which is the highest point on Finestrelles, an object 12,730 feet high and 276 miles away should be 3,270 feet below the horizon, impossibly out of view on the ball earth theory.

This is true and I am quite sure the group coming up with the round earth theory we're not original humans but genuinely curious scientists/philosophers.
The issue is that the group of real beings on control (inhabiting the north pole) started to see a benefit in their theory. Even when everyone believed the Earth was flat, noone had the tech or guts to bother with the icy terrain if the poles to get to the middle. As tech improved, mysteriously immediately the poles became places where the true center began to require special scientific research permissions to ever film or get to.
For some irony, you need to think how the term planet came about. What is a plane? It's a flat, levelled part of reality.

But what has this got to do with anything?
Greek mythology is an archaic pseudo-theory, based on ignorance.
Previously, I was just pointing out your incorrect assertion that the words planet and plane shared the same root meaning.
As for the flat Earth.

The center of the north pole (that is real so I don't quote it) is where the way to win the game is found. Perhaps we go to the next level, perhaps we die anyway but have our names at the top of some leaderboard (us the player, not us the game character) or perhaps we become ultra powerful and end up doomed to join the illuminati and deceive the rest.
The key part of why it matters is that unlike other flat earthers or your average conspiracy theorist, I believe that there is actually a physical destination to win... To upgrade... To make it all matter (your life). If you don't make it to the "holy Mecca" (the real Mecca is center of north pole) then you don't make it to paradise.

This always gets ignored by you guys.
Here do this test at home but make sure you have a clear view.
Best o, experiment 3. Watch the sunset lying down
As detailed by the folks at MinutePhysics, the horizon is one of the easiest ways to validate the Earth’s curvature. As the sun dips behind the horizon, it slips from your view in a bottom-up direction. If you watch the sunset while lying on your back, and then hop up as the last rays disappear, then you should be able to see the sunset again.
The same pattern applies to ships as they sail away — their hulls disappear from the bottom up. As MinutePhysics points out, if the Earth didn’t curve and the horizon didn’t exist, when you looked at Chicago from across Lake Michigan, you’d be able to see the Rocky Mountains.
These prove Earth's curvature:
1. Look at eclipses
Every once in a while, the Earth passes between the Moon and the Sun, creating a phenomenon known as the Lunar Eclipse.
The Earth casts a shadow on the Moon as it passes through so if you look closely enough (a decent telescope should do it), you might be able to see a shaded arc. It’s always an arc and never a square or a rectangle.
2. Send a camera into space
Companies like Sent Into Space have special balloon kits that allow you to send whatever you like into space and back. Look at this, a guy sent a camera to space and the Earth is round: https://www.geek.com/geek-cetera/homemade-spacecraft-reaches-100000-ft-films-the-whole-way-1287792/.
3. Watch the sun go over the horizon while lying down, then quickly stand up
If you watch the sunset lying down, you’ll find it disappears in the horizon. But if you stand up, you should still be able to see the sun as it sets on the distant horizon.
And if you happen to be at the ocean looking at ships, they will appear to emerge from the ocean – in a bottom-up direction. This is possible only because the ocean follows the curvature of the Earth and gradually drops from our line of sight.
If the earth was flat the water would stay at the same level.
4. The stars
If you go to a different part of the world, you’ll notice the constellations there are completely different.
A phenomenon first observed by Aristotle many, many years ago when he was returning from Egypt, the premise is the further you go away from the equator the further known constellations go towards the horizon.
This phenomenon can only be explained by a round surface.
Aristotle also concluded the Earth wasn’t very large because a small change in the distance makes a huge difference in terms of what we see in the night sky.
In the flat Earth model, you could not see the same constellations and stars in S.A. and Africa (or S.A. and Australia or Africa and Australia) (the two will both be night) because you would only be able to see the front. Also, the stars that are only able to see in the Northern Hemisphere would be visible in the South.
Globe:
Flat:
5. Time zones
Our planet is divided into 24 time zones, this is taking into account the position of the Sun and the Earth's rotation. The Sun isn’t visible to everyone at the same time.
But that wouldn’t be the case if the Earth was flat. If the Sun shone directionally on a flat Earth, we would be able to see at all times.
So basically, the only way these timezones can happen is if the world is spherical.
We have time zones because when the Sun is illuminating one side of the spherical Earth, the other side is dark.
This can only be explained if the world is round, and rotating around its own axis. At a certain point when the sun is shining on one part of the Earth, the opposite side is dark, and vice versa. That allows for time differences and time zones, specifically ones that are larger than 12 hours.
Another point concerning time zones, the sun, and Earth: If the sun was a “spotlight” (very directionally located so that light only shines on a specific location) and the world was flat, we would see the sun even if it didn’t shine on top of us (as you can see in the drawing below). Similarly, you can see the light coming out of a spotlight on a stage in the theater, even though you—the crowd—are sitting in the dark. The only way to create two distinctly separate time zones, where there is complete darkness in one while there’s light in the other as if the world is spherical.
Before I get into it, I want to say two things, on the top of the Burj Kalfa the sun sets 2 minutes later than the bottom. Also, if you do not have a model, you can not know if the flat Earth explains what happens.
I guess I will start and since you guys did not debunk these yet I will repost them.
There are so many more ways you can prove to yourself the Earth is round. You can see more things the higher up you are. Long suspension bridges’ towers slope slightly away from one another to account for the curvature of the Earth. Every other planet is a spinning sphere. Satellites exist (as proven by the existence of your iPhone), and obey rules that only work if they’re orbiting around Earth. We’ve taken many, many pictures of Earth. Buy a weather balloon and strap a camera to it.
Satellites have to exist for the internet to work. The TV would not be here without relativity which involves gravity. The ISS exists because you can clearly see it if it goes above your location. You can easily watch the youtube live stream from the ISS.
Hurricanes, cyclones, and typhoons are all the same thing: Spinning masses of air sucking moisture from the ocean, dumping it back on us and destroying things in their path. A hurricane is just a giant wind drain—a low-pressure center with winds flushing into it. The wind always blows counter-clockwise inwards in Northern Hemisphere hurricanes—check out this picture of Hurricane Katrina and the United States. Notice the direction the wind is traveling with a compass, depending on where the Hurricane is.
However, in the Southern Hemisphere, the wind travels the opposite direction. Here’s a picture of Hurricane Catarina, a very rare Southern Hemisphere Atlantic Hurricane:
Notice that Catarina is very clearly spinning in the opposite direction. That’s because of the Coriolis effect—the wind changes direction as the planet spins. If the Earth wasn’t spinning, the wind should blow straight into the middle of the hurricane from all directions. But the Earth spins faster at the equator than at the poles, because our planet’s midsection has the furthest distance to travel with each rotation. Winds traveling northwards or southwards curve as they travel from slower spinning to faster spinning regions of the planet. The wind carves the opposite direction based on whether you are above or below the equator since the Earth’s rotation gets slower on alternate sides.
You can recreate this by spinning a basketball on your finger, and moving a marker from the bottom up or the top down—notice what the line looks like above and below the middle of the ball.
Okay, let’s try to explain all that with a flat Earth. If Earth was a giant spinning plate with the North Pole at its center, all hurricanes should spin in the same direction and should have a much more spiral shape the further south (i.e., away from the center) you head. You could maybe slow down the spins further from the center of the spinning plate, but then you should see the continents ripping apart from the different speeds. It just doesn’t make any sense.
Look at this, a guy sent a camera to space and the Earth is round: https://www.geek.com/geek-cetera/homemade-spacecraft-reaches-100000-ft-films-the-whole-way-1287792/.
The video proves why the Coriolis effect is real and is dictated by hemisphere. The important parts are from 1:44-5:35. It has a controlled experiment. In the end, it explains why there is a difference between hemispheres. It works because it does. To understand this, think of a pool at the geographic poles. It is stationary relative to Earth, but every sidereal day, it is actually completing one full rotation. The part further away from the pole and closer to the equator move faster because it has to complete a larger movement in the same amount of time (that is why rockets are launched closer to the equator. When the plug is pulled (part of the experiment) everything is moving toward the drain in the middle. The far side is faster so it gets ahead while the slower part is too slow so it lags behind.
Edit: The video was a picture by accident because I copied and pasted my arguments. Here is the video:
What about these then,
The critical point here is disappearing OVER the horizon, not disappearing simply because they are small boats that are too small to see. Also, what about the majority of observations? This video claims it is not visible, but

Shows curve because you can the wake of the boat.

What is this supposed to mean to me? The video does not show how it moves across the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. It does not explain why we can't see the sun at all times. It does not explain why/how a flat Earth map makes Antartica have daylight for days on end.
