I could find no "sinking ship" in the Skunk Bay video. A lot of squashing, stretching, rising, lowering, mirage-ing, distorting.
But no cutting off of the bottom of objects and leaving the tops visible.
Maybe I wasn't looking hard enough due to confirmation bias. Feel free to find a sequence of "sinking" objects to show us.
The Turning Torso is not sinking due to changing atmospheric conditions. It sank as the photographer changed locations. And it sank without the portion that's lost to sight becoming squashed down into some boundary layer of distortion. There's nothing like that in the Skunk Bay video.
Refraction is more than distorting phenomenon like looming, mirage, Fata Morgana, etc. The air can be completely stable and the density gradient completely non-anomalous, and refraction over a sphere will still be manifest.
I thought for sure the sectional features of the Turning Torso would help distinguish curvature as the reason for the hidden portion of the tower and dispel the mixed explanations of "perspective, waves + convergence zone" in flat earth rationale. But obviously not. You see Skunk Bay and believe that that same set of phenomena is at work in the Turning Torso scenario. It's not, but how to get you to accept it.
If you can show me how a static object sinks from view or seems to rise into view as atmospheric conditions change, with the viewer not changing distance or elevation, then I'll buy it. I've tried to find one. Lighthouses. Anchored ships. Mountain ranges. Smokestacks. Forest tree lines. City sky lines. I can find time lapses of them getting squashed and stretched or distorted with mirage. But no "sinking ship" effect.
Find that for me. (Just find a segment in the Skunk Bay video, tell me the time frame and I'll do the rest, producing the video or animated GIF.)
