This video you've linked is embarrassing, imo

Literally the first frame, showing the horizon rising to meet eye level at 127,523 feet
From 0:04 to 0:20 you get a great look at it
Did you spend any time looking around the internet to verify the claim in this shit tier video you've linked?
the horizon rises to eye height IRL whether youre at 5 feet high or 100k feet high. If your looking though a lense and trying to measure your eye height (or level), to the horizon as "level" - your guilty of a depth levelling fallacy while not accounting for in Camera refraction Atmospheric diffraction, and the fact that the horizon is the optical edge of your ability to perceive diffraction as per Raleigh's criteria. But thanks for the shit tier comment, please derp some more plz, its very funny.
