Yea, but it doesn't take much altitude to tell the difference particularly if you are near the coast, in my opinion. At 5,000 feet it's pretty obvious you can see things you can't see at sea level in the same location.

Yeah I'm not sure how you would be able to accept some of the basic training concepts either...

Well, there is the whole "do flat earthers REALLY believe the Earth is flat or is it just to prove a point" thing as well.

DO NOT attempt to apply logic nor science to flat earth theories. Just don't. It doesn't work. They have a counter argument for anything you can throw at them.

Dude, have you heard of this thing called "physics?" There is some pretty wild shit there. Makes math look straight forward.

There are some oddities when you apply the math though, like how nothing can be hotter then planck temperature no matter how much more energy you add to the system. I like reading and listening to podcasts about physics and astrophysics, for some reason I enjoy being confused

I'm the same way I love reading (or listening/watching) stuff about physics even if it's way beyond my skill set.
