Yeah, that parachute hanging there was the checkered flag for the event.
But, Mad Mike will love on as sort of the George Armstrong Custer of the Flat Earth Society

Flat Earther Busted for Coronavirus Conspiracy Graffiti in Texas
An outspoken Flat Earth enthusiast in Texas is reportedly in hot water with the law after allegedly scrawling messages declaring the coronavirus to be a hoax on the pavement of a Walmart parking lot. Patrick Burke has become something of a local celebrity in the Dallas area over the last few years thanks to his fervent advocacy for the Flat Earth theory, which he promotes by way of numerous statements emblazoned on his car and home. And now, it would seem, the man known by many in the area as 'the Flat Earth guy' has set his sights on what he believes to be another nefarious conspiracy.
According to police, a resident in the city of Denton reported a man writing 'COVID hoax' on the asphalt outside of a Walmart and "being disrespectful to guests and employees." The manager of the store subsequently told investigators that an individual had tagged their parking lot with the phrase on multiple occasions. Identifying the suspect proved to be pretty easy as the perpetrator was reportedly spotted driving a car with messages about the Flat Earth all over it.
Just to be sure, police ran the license plate of the car after it was captured on video by security cameras and determined that, indeed, Flat Earther Patrick Burke was the man behind the coronavirus-related messages. When cops went to his residence, he reportedly asserted that his First Amendment rights allowed him to write the statements on the Walmart parking lot despite it being private property. It would appear that police disagreed with Burke's defense and subsequently issued him a citation for criminal trespassing.

It is often the case that someone who believes in one conspiracy theory believes in all conspiracy theories.

I encountered one earlier in the spring. He looked and acted surprisingly normal, other than trying to spread the flat Earth gospel to random people in a fast food restaurant. Next time I encounter him, I may say to him "Don't you have more important things to do with your time on Earth? It's not unlimited, ya know."

Italian Flat Earthers' Journey to the 'Edge of the World' Goes Wildly Awry
An Italian couple who believe that the Earth is flat wound up on a wild misadventure after they decided to put the theory to the test by embarking on a journey to what they suspect is 'edge of the world.' The incredibly strange saga reportedly unfolded back in April, but was only revealed to the Italian media by authorities this week. It began when the pair broke the country's then-stringent coronavirus travel restrictions and set off in their car towards the coast of Sicily.
Amazingly, when they reached the seaside town of Termini Imerese, the pair sold their car, purchased a boat, and set sail for the island of Lampedusa which, for reasons unexplained, they believe to be the edge of the Flat Earth. Either due to a lack of nautical navigation skills or an ill-conceived travel plan, they ultimately arrived at the island of Ustica, which is located north of Sicily and approximately 225 miles in the opposite direction of where they wanted to go.
According to officials on the island, the two weary travelers were found "tired, thirsty, and risking shipwreck." A doctor who attended to the duo understandably found some amusement in their predicament, noting that "the funny thing is that they oriented themselves with a compass, an instrument that works on the basis of terrestrial magnetism, a principle that they, as Flat Earthers, should refuse." The pair were then taken by escort to the Sicilian capital of Palermo, where they were told to remain in their boat under quarantine for 15 days.
It would seem, however, that their quest to find the edge of the world would not be denied as, incredibly, the couple defied the order and took to the sea once again. This trip did not last as long as their previous excursion as they were intercepted by a harbormaster after only three hours. And, in what must have been a maddening experience for local officials, the pair actually attempted yet another failed escape after that, which led to the Flat Earthers ultimately throwing in the towel on their trip and going home.

Well, there you have it. TPTB are actively trying to prevent seekers from discovering or revealing the truth.

Cute. But maybe North America was (is) to the right (east) of Japan.

As above, so bellow
There are more than 200,000 UFO witness testimonials on the record in US and French databases. There is a large amount of material evidence in a form of radar tracks, microwave burns, metalic samples, ruined wristwatches and electronics, soil imprints etc. All this is supported by modern physics, i.e. General Relativity. Enough for any rational person.
All that leads me to say that people who DON'T BELIEVE IN UFOs are the same as Flat Earthers.

Flat Earther Arrested for Flouting Coronavirus Quarantine Rules in Canada
A Canadian Flat Earth enthusiast has been arrested after flouting the country's pandemic quarantine rules following a trip to the United States. Mak Parhar reportedly journeyed to South Carolina last month to attend Flatoberfest, a convention dedicated to the controversial conspiracy theory that the Earth is not round. Per Canadian international travel restrictions regarding the prevention of the spread of coronavirus, it was required that he self-isolate for two weeks upon his return home to British Colombia.
However, police say, Parhar promptly disregarded the quarantine mandate and "continued leaving his residence." Eventually, authorities began investigating the situation and even issued a ticket to the Flat Earther for disregarding the regulations, but his refusal to self-isolate continued. The situation reached a boiling point this past Sunday when Parhar spoke about his ongoing battle with the authorities at an anti-mask rally in the city of Vancouver, boasted that he would not adhere to the regulations, and declared that "COVID doesn't exist."
Seemingly faced with no other option, cops subsequently arrested Parhar the following day and charged him with three violations of Canada's Quarantine Act. Currently in police custody, the Flat Earther could face fines of up to $300,000 and a possible prison sentence of six months for each charge if convicted. The case is not Parhar's first run-in with the authorities over the coronavirus as his hot yoga studio lost its business license back in April after he repeatedly asserted that the extreme temperatures of his practice were no match for the virus.
