Has anyone seen Behind the Curve? Most of these flat earth people seem to possess some level of critical thinking, just... not enough. That, or their pride or obstinacy get in the way. At the end of the documentary, a team of flat-earthers perform an actual, well thought out experiment. It's... well, just watch.

Best part? Immediately after this, they discard the results of the experiment saying the premise was faulty. Somehow.

Oh my bad, I thought it was the laser gyroscope experiment, performed by the late Bob Knodel.
