This video didn't demonstrate anything, there are hills in the distance that obscure the horizon, and it's very easy to find a section of Highway with a slight vertical curvature, and then set the camera to take advantage of this geometry. There is a section of Rt. 30 in Pa. just east of Bedford Pa. that is called "Mile Level". it is certainly one mile of straight road but it is not level, even though those who grew up there will claim that it is actually level for the whole mile. I have driven that section and it clearly raises up at the one end, for about half the distance. You can discount any video that is set on land, as the surface of the Earth is not level and true by any measure.
