But how is it relevant to anything?

As long as you arent trying yourself?

Pretty sure @Anette got it already.

```Light curves up in air due to refraction
Up curving arches of light intersect a flat
surface.Straight rays of light do not
intersect a down curving surface.

The Greater the distance,
the more pronounced the arch of light.
The more curved the arch,
the more ground clearance
is required to prevent obstruction.```

I still dont see any relevance to anything.

@Heider are you sure?

Yes 100%

Annette did see it.

But, let me dumb it down for you.

You are comparing Something people does when they want to take their lives to some fantasy fairytale we have been given that we have no way of validating or falsifying.

Sticks and shadows

```HYMN TO "R"
Our Eratosthenes whose sticks measured the heavens,
Hallowed be thy name,
Thy circumference come,
Thy radius be done,
On Earth as it measures in the heavens,
Give us this day our daily shadows,
And forgive us for assuming the distance to the sun,
To give us the globe.
R-men```

How is this anything similar?

I never specified how tall the building is.

And when people want to die, they jump on something solid.

what?

Plus, I asked for you to prove it to me.

Where i live they jump on water.

But ok

I don't believe what others have said.

But still. no relevance to anything

This is nothing similar..

I want you to prove it to me.

I don't believe what others have said.

@Heider I think it’s a troll at this point
It originally began when he tried to argue against science

I want to see it with my own eyes.

So please, prove it.

@Robaticon We are discussing the claimed radius of earth. Not anything people claims. This is just garbage.

```HYMN TO "R"
Our Eratosthenes whose sticks measured the heavens,
Hallowed be thy name,
Thy circumference come,
Thy radius be done,
On Earth as it measures in the heavens,
Give us this day our daily shadows,
And forgive us for assuming the distance to the sun,
To give us the globe.

@Deleted User yeah.

And, @Deleted User, I am trying to make a point.

What point
I still don’t see gas pressure without a container

@Heider oh, but you seem to not believe what others have said (nasa) and experienced (astronauts) because you haven't experienced it for yourself.

what's up

But you do believe that you won't survive a, let's say 5 meter fall in 2 meters of water because others haven't.

Not because you haven't.

Or someone right in front of you hasn't.
