A picture purportedly from Sussex, England has gone viral on social media. The picture, which seems to be a cliff, has a caption that says this the point where the Earth ends, giving a major boost to "flat-earth believers".
The cliff in the picture is covered by clouds and it does seem that there's nothing ahead by looking at the picture. The picture is clicked by .
The picture is from a place called Beachy Head, located in Sussex, England. It is a beach with a cliff near to it, which also means it is not really the end of Earth.
The cliff at Beachy Head is the highest chalk sea cliff in Britain, rising to 162 meters (531 ft) above sea level. The peak allows views of the southeast coast from Dungeness in the east to Selsey Bill in the west.
The place, however, became a hotspot for suicides due to its height and police is usually patrolling in the area now.
