if you go up high enough, you will see the curve

We do actually see the curve in the second imagine and we can tell it's not a fish eye

Oh really, April?

rockets don't go straight up for a reason, it's inefficient

Where?

basic optics

the effect on the first image is called fish eye, it creates a distorted view of the bridge

Near the horizon it's not too noticeable the curve is a small curve due to how big the earth is

The first image isn’t fisheye.

it looks flat in the second photo because you're above and the earth is kinda big relative to the bridge

it is though

It’s Soundly’s photograph.

If we can see curve at surface level, we absolutely would see it at higher elevation.

Period.

its an optics distortion

the curve is exaggerated because of the lens the photo was taken with

Sounds like you have a beef with Soundly.

The second photo doesn't have any distortion that I know of

maybe so

It's nothing personal

yeah, the second photo was taken with a different lens

Lenses are werid

But they are great

i'm not a professional photographer but i would believe i have at least some knowledge on how lenses work from my experience

The red bull jump was using a go pro that's not earths curve that's the go pro

Correct.

I have a go pro it does that

again, the redbull jump is a lens effect, the earths curve would not be that round from 128,000ft, and the 10ft photo is basically the same effect as the bridge photo

there is an excellent vsauce video on this somewhere

Soundly is a hardcore glober. And you’re saying his photo is manipulated.

no?

No I'm saying it's distorted by the lens

his photo is by nature what it is, the curve is exaggerated because of the lens he used

Because it never happened and they're lying.

It’s a theory they ever went.

@Deleted User way too many coincidence's in there
