I highly recommend the documentary Behind The Curve. It's both hilarious and frustrating in equal measure, since it charts the antics of the flat earther movement (mostly on America, but these people are all over the globe, sadly).
The hilarious part is how these people keep doing experiments throughout the documentary to prove the world is flat, and their experiments keep coming back showing it's a globe. But they just double down and assume they did something wrong.
It's a fascinating insight into mad delusion, and has some great examples of the Dunning-Kruger effect.
