Space-time is not really 'bending' like we think of it, say like a bamboo plank. The photon follows what is called 'the geodesic'.

It is not really like we see represented with the bowling ball on a trampoline. That's just a representation to help us visualize.

Also the OP's posted 'experiment' is a hoax. Not sure where they got it.

einsteins geodesic is a lot of humbug. pl watch the ark video and gordon novels video posted

It's not Einstein's geodesic and as far as humbug, it's a theory, as opposed to being 'flakey pseudoscience'. HTH
