The horizon is below the centre point of the fish eye lens and therefore is distorted in the opposite direction to the curve. This is why it looks flat. Balloon footage with fish eye lenses can only prove anything if the horizon crosses the centre point.

You can see that it's a fish eye lens if you watch the rest of the footage...

You can plainly see that the footage is taken with a fisheye lens in the video I posted...

Why don't they just show us photos of the edge of the earth? Oh I know because there are no edges on a sphere.

you are doing good job bro
keep it up

More people are waking up to the globe deception every day, our numbers are growing at an exponential rate, change is coming, tick tock...

hows the noisy neighbours?

not sure what i am lol

very interesting

Great work, always keep informing each other!

cool! Who knows..

I am sorry. But you are totally wrong.
When watching a lunar eclipse. You will see the earth's shadow on the surface of the moon. And guess what. The shadow is round. And that's a great clue that our earth is spherical.

AND since the earth is rotating, and still making this exact same round shadow on the moon, every time. That proves our earth is not just round, but spherical too.

AND if you don't even think the earth is rotating, well. Then you should study Foucault Pendulum

in reply to this you would see a shadow in the shape of a circle because that is the shape of the moon as seen from earth and the size of earths shadow is simply bigger

As a hobby astrologer, I can tell you it is true that the shadow on the moon is constant -- every fucking lunar ecplise. And I have traveled around the world to watch.

And you would have a damn hard time proving the earth is not rotating when taking the Foucault Pendulum into your equastion.

And with the Occam's Razor we can with very good confidence say that the earth is spherical, without even going into space.

Dear Danish man, let go of your non sense.

Because you have forgot 1st grade material

As a hobby astrologer I have researched it for many years.

And let us say for a second the earth is flat; why bother? To me it seems like you are the one open for indoctrination. Exactly.

That must be the most interesting thing , still not considering though

Haha pretty good proof the earth is really flat, will give you a follow! But does gravity exist in your theory?

Hi Lasse, I guess you couldn’t leave the flat earth topic after all :-). As others have pointed out in comments the footage is taken with a lens that has barrel distortion “fish eye” lens. You will have to look at places where the horizon is centre frame for it to be without distortion.

Another way of capturing the curvedness of the horizon is to use a rectilinear lens (no distortion). Using such a lens it is even possible to capture the curvedness from ground on Earth. Here is a link to my findings using a close to rectilinear lens, https://flic.kr/p/WoaBqu. The amount of curve is not more than 3-4 pixels but when scaling the centre part the curve is visible.
