No, I'm not watching your video on anything unless you watch an equally long video from me.

And fine... I'll give you that the drop would be noticeable at 1 mile... I made an assumption without looking it up. You got me there.

But that is not the only problem with your experiment. How many degrees off from true level can your laser be before your experiment is fucked? I looked it up, and it's not much...

Less than 1/1,000th of a degree and that laser is at a completely incorrect height on the other side... Can you build a rig to hold a laser pointer perfectly level to that degree of accuracy?

I looked up the accuracy of the most accurate leveling tool I can find... and it's accurate to 1/30th of a degree.

So you're going to have a really big challenge even proving the laser is actually parallel to the waterline your way.

Talk about overcomplicated...

My way you don't have to keep the laser perfectly parallel. You don't have to measure the height on either side. You just have to establish the light can be seen, even in a quick flash.

Why can't you just prove the laser is visible from a long distance?

According to your position it's still a straight line at 2 miles, 2,000 miles, or 10,000 miles....

It's all a straight line according to you... So the distance shouldn't matter. In your model you should be able to see a laser across oceans.

Hell in your model there should be an edge you can photograph and shut me up once in and for all.

No, I'm not watching your video on anything unless you watch an equally long video from me.

And fine... I'll give you that the drop would be about 6 inches at 1 mile... I made an assumption without looking it up. You got me there.

The fact that your own experiment stops working beyond a certain distance is the proof that you're wrong.

Why can't you just prove the laser is visible from a long distance? If you think your experiment works at 2 miles, but stops working at 200 that proves the earth isn't flat... Because according to your position it's still a straight line at 2 miles, 2,000 miles, or 10,000 miles....

Hint: Cause it's not straight.
