here is a screen grab

on the video he says that because of perspective you cant see anything on the ground higher than the red line coming out of the dog's eye. so as the ship got closer to the horizon line the top of the ship would rise above the no see line, and would not be visible so the ship would seem to disappear from the top down as more of it rose to the horizon line
