I’ve shot a video of the lake I live nearby. According to the curvature calculation, I shouldn’t be able to see most of the village on the other side (about 20m behind curve of I remember correctly). But still I can see buildings, boats, trees, full windmills.
But when I look in the far distance, I see a windmill’s blades just slicing theough the water / horizon. As if it were built inside the lake.
Real life observations dont match the official curve formula.

Have you seen city or landscapes tilting back as they recede?
Feel the earth move? except for earthquake and xxx.

Yep. Account for the curve of your own eyes on motionless ground.
