Flat Earth Polaris Angles FAIL the Math — Again

Flat Earthers love to claim that Polaris being visible across different latitudes somehow supports a flat Earth. But when you actually test the angles to Polaris across a flat surface? Surprise: It doesn’t work. At all.

I recreated the experiment with:

A fake Polaris (streetlight)

A protractor set at 50° down to 5°

A 180-foot tape line

And a refusal to accept laziness as an experiment

As expected, the angle drop on a flat topographical plane isn't linear — it ramps, curves, and never levels out, just like the mental gymnastics required to believe this works.

Then I plotted real data from cities like Reykjavik, London, Phoenix, and Aruba using latitude and distance to the North Pole. The result? A near-perfect linear drop, just like you'd expect on a globe.

And guess what? I even recreated the model with a 6.5" globe. Still works.
Scaled it to Earth size? Still works.
Flat Earth? Still broken.

🧠 Want to debunk me? Please. Show your math. Show your test. Otherwise, maybe stop pretending.
