Flat Earth Scaling Test Sinks — Even in a Puddle

Sometimes you don’t need lasers or high-altitude balloons.
Sometimes all it takes is a puddle, a LEGO tower, and a 3D-printed Willis Tower.

I saw a lawn being irrigated and thought — hey, perfect chance to test Flat Earth optics. So I threw together a floating toy ship, two “buildings,” and taped my camera to the waterline.

Here’s what happened:

At water level, the bottom of both towers disappeared

The copper base of the 3D print? Gone.

The red bottom of the LEGO tower? Also gone.

Only the top remains visible, even in calm water.

I even did the math:
📏 Scaled it using a Warren Dunes observation comparison
📷 Observer height = 85 mm
🏙️ Real-world scaling favored flat Earth — and it still failed

If Flat Earth optics worked, this should have shown the entire towers.
Instead, it perfectly matches what we see on a globe: bottom-up disappearance due to line-of-sight obstruction and wave micro-curvature.

And no, the boat didn’t vanish due to the horizon — it just sank.
(Science can’t fix poor naval engineering.)
