I know this is a joke but if anyone is wondering it's because they build those things to go towards the air, otherwise they would be going away from the air and it would be hard to breath. Earth is going away from the air too but luckily it has trees attached to itself that make more air and leave it behind, that's where wind comes from.

Therefore... by the process of elimination, we can tell the Earth is banana shaped.

Im sure going against the force of gravity vs gravity pull to the earth has a lot to do with it too.
