What's supposed to be on the flip side?

 

If you travel south in a straight line from Tierra del Fuego - either tracing the journey on a globe or making the journey in real life - you cross the Antarctic and then find yourself heading north, somewhere near Australia.

 

What's supposed to happen if you make that journey on a flat Earth?

Opinion mate. Piri reis map for instance from the 1500's shows a perfect representation of the Antarctic coastline which is today hidden under ice. May be a hoax but it is interesting.
