How far would you go to prove your conspiracy theory is actually real?
One Italian couple decided to go to the end of the world... or so they thought.

The pair both believe the Earth is flat, and were planning to go on a cruise to prove their theory.
According to Vice, the couple sold their car to buy a boat, but it didn't exactly go to plan.
They were planning to navigate from Termini Imerese, a town in northern Sicily, to Lampedusa. All this using a compass, which is ironic given they function on the basis of the Earth's non-flatness but anyway... clearly they ran into some issues because they apparently got lost, and ended up in a small island named Ustica instead.

The couple were reportedly helped by a doctor at the maritime health office. They were then placed in quarantine because, you know, pandemic still going on.
But they were having none of it and tried to tried to escape not once, but twice, before giving up, succumbing to their fate in isolation, and then taking the ferry home.

Oh, those poor people! It might not be nice to laugh, but I can't help it.
