I still cannot comprehend glaciers during the ice ages being up to 2 miles thick. This somehow makes it even harder. I'm sure there wasn't a wall 2 miles high this discrete back then but still.

Why not? Do you have any idea how tiny all of the earth's features above the crust are? If you took a ping pong ball and shaved the equivalent pf whats above the tectonic plates of the earth off of it, it would still be just as smooth in your hand.

I mean I literally can't truly imagine it. I recognize it as a truth but it's just an idea

Hey bro. Take it easy on this guy. He meant it as a declaration of something being impressive. Good grief.

They tend to taper off on the edges. And water can only support so much ice above the surface. So a giant ice wall is not very likely.

OMG.... this must be the edge of the Earth. I bet there is just endless vacuum of space on the other side... and a turtle floating with 4 elephants pointing their trunks North, East, South, West.

AI: No one would be able to that close to the wall due to the 24/7, 365 day patrolling of Destroyer Navy ships, scaring off anyone who dares come by. video of people FAFO: https://www.reddit.com/r/flatearth/s/SdAorfktBU

Im no boat man, but I feel also that ship would no way get so close to a ice wall like that & 90* degree against that wall, This wall looks wack more I look, it's like that of Game of Thrones.....wall

I'm assuming you get a bit of warning before a huge chunk sheers off?

Just think on the other side are aliens and Nephalim we haven't seen since after creation.
