Just interested, although like many things where we get so worked up about people having opinions different to our own, it doesn't really matter.
You'd either stop at the south pole or start heading north.

There is a football team here in Madrid called Flat Earth FC, who play in the fourth division. The Flat Earth society oddballs took over a local team when they got promoted from the regional league. Very weird lot and feel sorry for the old team's supporters who have had this put on them!5

If the world was flat, why would it be a secret, what benefit would anyone get from it?

Not that it requires explanation to anybody on here, but it is easy enough for an individual to see the earth is not flat with no equipment so flat earth people are more interesting in terms of how they can believe something so stupid. A bit like Trump supports and the Q movement I suppose.
Granted to see it yourself, you must have a clear view from the seashore or from a boat. If the Earth is round, then objects which travel away from you along the surface of the Earth will disappear from view from the bottom up (which is what they do). If the earth was flat the sea would be level and that wouldn't happen.

I don’t believe anyone really thinks the world is flat (excluding specific religious/cultural situations).1

(This may be the only time that paragraph has been written on a football forum, anywhere).2 -
It's recognised round here, that if you travel north of Norwich, you will fall off the edge of the world. And that if you stand on the top of Suffolk's highest mountain, on a fine day, you actually see the edge of the world. More proof, How about the Worlds End pub in Chelsea?1
