There are folks on this very forum, longtime FReepers, who hold with this belief.

(Later, after Charades and more drinks, we’re going to have a contest to see who can best channel Hank Johnson.)

Well many believe this, why I don’t know..photos from space station disagree..

What if the earth were tubular man, like totally....

Obama should never have brought it up. I wouldn't have started looking into it otherwise.

When you can explain to me how things that should be impossible are possible then you'll bring me back to believing we live on a ball.

UNBELEIVABLE HORIZONS
Strait of Dover does NOT show any Earth curvature (but should!)

Flat Earth 31.63 miles..Undeniable Proof
FLAT EARTH - JUST WATCH THIS (in silent awe)

Show me...and no fish eye lens videos, please.

Tell me not to believe what I see with my own eyes.

No...no...there's no firmament.
Star Trek-like invisible shield found thousands of miles above EarthThe team originally thought the highly charged electrons, which are looping around Earth at more than 100,000 miles per second, would slowly drift downward into the upper atmosphere and gradually be wiped out by interactions with air molecules. But the impenetrable barrier seen by the twin Van Allen belt spacecraft stops the electrons before they get that far, said Baker.

Scientists Discover Star Trek Style Invisible "Shield" Thousands Of Miles Above Earth

“It’s almost like these electrons are running into a glass wall in space,” lead author Professor Daniel Baker said in a news-release. “Somewhat like the shields created by force fields on Star Trek that were used to repel alien weapons, we are seeing an invisible shield blocking these electrons. It’s an extremely puzzling phenomenon.”
An impenetrable barrier to ultrarelativistic electrons in the Van Allen radiation beltsRather, we suggest that exceptionally slow natural inward radial diffusion combined with weak, but persistent, wave–particle pitch angle scattering deep inside the Earth’s plasmasphere can combine to create an almost impenetrable barrier through which the most energetic Van Allen belt electrons cannot migrate.

Oh, wait...
