[pubear1128]

I think that with out youtube we wouldn't be able to view videos like this...

[GmrWeb]

Amazing video! I wish i was there back then to see this for the first time, i hope i will live long enough to at least see man walking on mars

[mrtamnus1]

Absolutely amazing. Humans making their first steps in to the universe. Incredible.

[54Representa]

FAKE!

[Murph1331]

I would give anything to be able to go back in time and sit in front of a television and see this historic event unfold before my very eyes.

[Digaas]

one dislike? wtf?? what's there to dislike? walter cronkite's voice?

[linuxluver]

I watched that at the time. I was 11 years old. It was awesome.

[PPKDude852]

I forgot what's the song they play in this video?

[oddeyed3]

Dear Emma,

I write this so you can see what your birthday means. I remember watching these historic events in 1969. It was truly amazing! I was at the 30th anniversary celebration in 1999 at NASA-JSC and waiting to receive word of your birth. The day was exciting just recalling what it meant -- the joy the world felt. I had no idea that Neil Armstrong would appear and that I would get to shake his hand. Later I heard you had arrived on July 20!

Love & Best Wishes for every day of your life!

[ryanwfrederick]

Every time I see that launch video, with the red U, S, and A going past the camera, I just about lose it. Not just the greatest nation in the world, but the greatest civilization in history.

[fvgdfbdokd]

Neil Armstrong wasn't the first man on the moon. The first man on the moon was Cutler Biggums. You don't know him because he was black. The Negro American Space Society of Astronauts (NASSA) was the first to send a man to the moon.

[jsilence418]

Hey all you dopes that think the 1969 moon landing was real, lol wanna buy the Ben Franklin bridge???

[Stantzs]

Of course 1 in 4 americans say this never happened. I always suspected that a fourth of us were complete retards, but it's sad to have proof.

[jsilence418]

I'll tell you " just what there is to add to that " walter, it's fake !

[Sturmvogel]

@jsilence418 STFU moron.

[jsilence418]

@Sturmvogel Suck my cock shit dick!

[Sturmvogel]

@jsilence418 lol. I bet you believe that missiles hit the WTC too. haha

[jsilence418]

@Sturmvogel You being a chump, will believe anything.

[Sturmvogel]

@jsilence418 Me being a chump? Give me one reason why you think the moon landing is a fake and I'll disprove it 10 times. Go ahead you paranoid dork.

[jsilence418]

@Sturmvogel Glad you admit to being a chump ! what you will do is come up with 10 reasons to convince yourself, which shouldn't be hard, as you are a fucking imbecile.

[RichardMontalban]

@jsilence418 You know the entiree space program is a hoax. Man has never even been to space. The entire thing be a conspirasy and an elaborate hoax. THere have never BEen any space shuttles, ISS or any of that monkey nonsense. I wish tha govermnent would admit there lies. Govrmnt says they sent a man to da moon, but its a lie. Alll space stuff is a lie. People cant breathe in space so it cant be happening.

[jsilence418]

@RichardMontalban Hey you were great on Star trek as khan, but face it Ricardo you are just being silly.

[RichardMontalban]

@jsilence418 Huh? What you talking about?

[jsilence418]

@RichardMontalban The plaaane ! the plaaane ! come now ricardo, man did not walk on the moon, but the U.S. and Russia did achieve space flight at least to Earths' orbit.

[RichardMontalban]

@jsilence418 No they didn't, silly. It's impossible. It's never happened. I can never believe it. There's nothing peeople like yuo can say to make me believe it. Also, I don't get this Ricardo thin.g

[jsilence418]

@RichardMontalban Smile tatoo smile! remember when you used to say that? yes man has been to space ,not the overwhelming space between your ears ricardo, but outer space !

[RichardMontalban]

@jsilence418 What are you talking about mate? You are as craazy as a llooon. Man has beeen to space? Crazy! You are insane... you can't even deefend your argument and say any facts. You sound like all the sheeple that believe that there was a man on the moon. You are stupid. Adn what do you mean "tatoo"? What is that?

[jsilence418]

@RichardMontalban No mr rourke, man wasn't on the moon but he was in space, and still is ! you try to put the onus on me, you must prove man was not in space! were you the latino actor married to Esther Williams? or was it that other guy? Fernando Romero?

[RichardMontalban]

@jsilence418 You're such a blind sheep. First of all, it is impossible to go ot space. People can't breathe in space. Also, their is a llot of radiation that can kill peeple up there. It can't happen.  Also, there is gravityy. Have youu heard of this, or are you to retarded? Gravity will not let us go there. Now... you say US and Russians have gone to space and are still there?... Are you crazy? Prove it. If people can go to space, theen why not go to teh moon. Both are impossible.

[jsilence418]

@RichardMontalban Man must crawl before he can walk Mr rourke! man kind is just beginning to walk as far as deep space technology goes, in the 60's to early 70's ? ha ha not even at the crawling stage, although the Russians were farther ahead than our American cousins, hey Ricardo, did you have an affair with herve villachaize, or what ever his name was?

[jsilence418]

Hey ricky, don't lose that number! if man cannot breathe in space, as you say, then how do you breathe with your head so far up your ass? do you get government funding to explore that far up your ass? when are you coming back ? does this make you an ass tronaut ha ha ha the plaaaaane !

[RichardMontalban]

@jsilence418 Wow! You can't even defend your argument, mate. You Canadians aare crazy. You saay crazy things like the Ammericans and you can't defend your argument. I guess canadians and americans are the same. No wonedr the rest of the worrld hates canada and America so much.

[jsilence418]

@RichardMontalban Actually ricardo a lot of the world is jealous of our enviable way of life, unlike your country where they let you suck off old men to buy bananas for the family ! prove man was not in space ! no never mind it would tax an uneducated mind like yours too much!! I accept the fact you lose.

[RichardMontalban]

@jsilence418 I proved it... but you have not proven man was on the moon. We agree, that never happened... but itt never happenedd because peoplle can't go to space. If they coould they'd be gone to the moon. UYou can't trust the Americans... they liee about everything, including space and teh moon. And the world is not envious of America like you say. People come to New Zealand all teh time. Haven't you seen Loard of the Rings. People loves us. America and Canada is evil and lies.

[RichardMontalban]

@jsilence418 Adn if you say anything bad about NZ again... I will rape yourr mother.

[jsilence418]

@RichardMontalban new zealand?? really ?it's still legal to marry little girls there right ? yuck !  you would love that being a pedophile ! hey you can't be in new zealand, your computer wouldn't work, no one there has electricity! only gas and most of that is anal gas! is there much of an echo up your ass where your head is ? the plaaaane the plaaaane !

[RichardMontalban]

@jsilence418 So, once again, I've won this debaete. It is eazy to beet Canadians in arguments because they are retardded and fuck their sisters in the ass. What a reatarded shiit country you have. All you do is succk America's dick and compliement them on alll of their lies. By the way... I am going to Cannada now to rape your mum's mouth. I have amazing raping skills. Way better tahn your debate skills. You can't even proove that man has never been to teh moon much less go to spase.

[gjc82071]

@RichardMontalban You're great @ spurting out obscene, false, absurd, illogical, bullshit, but do you ever tell the truth & or, say anything that makes sense? Living in your fantasy world, you probably don't realize it, or maybe you just don't care; but in any event...you don't come of as cool, or "witty", or anything like that. In fact, you come of as ignorant, uneducated & illogical. I can't even say crazy...because "crazy" is kinda cool. You're in no way, shape, or form, cool. Just dumb.

[leafsfourever]

@RichardMontalban Wow what an obscene piece of shit you are, enjoy your sense of power as your country goes bankrupt before your eyes, coming from a country full of half whits and inbreeders is your legacy, if you can carry a gun and talk trash then your are a legend in your own mind.

[linuxluver]

@jsilence418 Retardo Montalban isn't typical of people in New Zealand. He has more in common with mentally disturbed people everywhere, though.

[jsilence418]

@linuxluver New Zealand appears to be an awesome spot, feed his kind to the sharks, and it would be perfect there!

[RichardMontalban]

@jsilence418 also, if you cannot proove that poeple have gone to space, how kan you proove they hadnt gone to teh moon. You are a stupid sheep. BAH!

[jsilence418]

@RichardMontalban Let us assume I am a sheep BAAAAAH ! and you are free, what has your freedom gotten you, but a narrow mind and atrocious spelling? If you cannot spell, how do you effectively communicate ?you were pretty hammy in those old Combat episodes back in the 60's ricardo c!!

[daddies100able]

It shows what we can achieve when we all pull together..I remember this as it happened when I was a lad, it never fails to inspire or bring a lump to the throat.

[Etheridge007]

I don't know why, but this made my eyes water. Makes me so patriotic.

[corvettels9]

the ad at the beginning really ruins the video.

[bubblinbrownsugar616]

@corvettels9 Sure as hell does. Do you have an ad blocker on your browser?! I use Firefox and I have an ad blocker from their add ons that I downloaded. Best thing in the world. Seriously.

[corvettels9]

@bubblinbrownsugar616 I use Google Chrome. I'm not sure if it has an ad-blocker--I never checked. I have firefox, but chrome is just so much faster.

[woody2327]

@corvettels9 Thumbs up and agree!

[Spartan038lverr]

I was born too fucking late!!!

[manhbx96]

the best ratings and CBS was the most watched network for these missions

[twistedfuk666]

i wonder if they wrote this script at bohemian grove

[nickalexrock]

USAUSAUSAUSA

[cantstandya2]

Did Cronkite call the moon a planet at 1:10?

[joshatkins94]

cantstandya2 sometimes people call it a planet, Bill Anders (Apollo 8 LMP) did, in the sense that it's another celestial body.

[JacobPhilipRenae]

The woman or man who first steps foot on Mars is going to have to top Armstrong's "one small step" line, and that's not a writing assignment I envy.

[Startrekboy1138]

Only one way the Doubters (not me) will ever realize it's real: Hook up Neil Armstong to a lie detector! :p

[blkntelligent01]

This is a lie... it's faked in Hollywood. If Neil Armstrong was the first man to step on the surface of the moon who filmed it? It was filmed from the out side of the capsule not from the inside of the capsule out. The astronauts just lifted off went into orbit and splash down in the ocean. Another Masonic trick to control what you think... please don't be fooled by these "Lords of Illusions"......

[wahaya2]

@blkntelligent01 Oh. Very. Dear.

I once heard an apt term to describe the mentality of conspiracy theorists - cultural vandalism. Just as a vandal feels the need to scrawl his name on a park wall or wherever, a cultural vandal feels the need to in some way associate himself with some significant event that did not involve him. Thus he will seek to prove that somehow, he has access to knowledge about it that the rest do not. It's fairly pathetic in all honesty.

[jsilence418]

@wahaya2 Aww has some one stepped on your rose colored glasses??

[wahaya2]

@jsilence418 Well, given that that whole era of history is mostly better off forgotten - Vietnam, civil rights issues, etc etc, I choose to enjoy a great technological achievement going on in the midst of that. Not much wrong with that, that I can see.

[sully271]

@blkntelligent01If it is a fake/lie/hoax...how did over 400,000 people keep it secret? Kennedy set the goal in 1961....think NASA might have spent a tiny part of the 8 years since then on how to record it ? Why don't you believe that people can achieve ANYTHING we set our minds to ?

[ejmusk]

chills.

[jfrockon]

ONLY Mr.Cronkite could tell it like it was. RIP Walter.

[ghostman3331]

With oldschool photoshop disney florida faked this video using state of the art theatre props anyone that thinks man actually landed on the moon is a fool and has been duped by man himself man nevr landed on the moon and it is impossible for man to land on the moon actually man shall never land on the moon nor leave outside the van allen belt due to intinse radiation unless great leaps in anti radiation occurs can u live in a microwave oven no.Society For Truth debunks this video as fake SFTWCOV

[TAz69x]

It's so sad that the USA, once the technological and economic powerhouse of the 20th century, has been relegated to ridicule and decline amidst theology and perversion of science amongst the new millennium.

[nodlon20]

Can words really describe the feelings and the emotions of the moment? I don't think they can!

[nodlon20]

Loved it! I was 15 years old when I watched this and it's as fresh in my memory as if it were just yesterday! Beautiful clip with the soundtrack of Apollo 13!!! Beautiful!

[speiss2002]

One reason why some people like to entertain the idea of a conspiracy maybe as Buzz Aldrin put it, "they want to be in on something secret ".How sad for them. I was fortunate to attend a lecture by a member of the Soviet Space Programme,who stated that they were thoroughly convinced the USA had successfully landed men on the moon.If the Soviets had any doubts they would have aired them long ago.

[MrMonkeyman898]

i wonder how those people felt seeing that rocket take off to the moon

[nodlon20]

@MrMonkeyman898 It was incredible, but I only saw it onl TV, but from what I've heard over the years from eyewitness accounts of people right there at the beach, they said the earth was shaking like an earthquake and the sound.....well I can't even imagine how it sounded to them, they probably had to cover their ears! But I will never, ever forget it. It was so beautiful and so exciting!! I was 15 years old and for a teenager, it was a really amazing thing to witness!!

[oscarisback]

Tell those who doubt it.. Tell 'em Our Flag was still there

[kapkoba]

I respected Walter Cronkite until he participated in the charade of America's fake moon landing.

[joshatkins94]

@kapkoba So the 10 crewed Saturn V launches were faked? Was it some kind of hologram, or were the spectators drugged? And did the retroreflectors land themselves on the moon? How about the moon rocks -- are they fake too?

[oscarisback]

If you have doubts that our nation was lying about the lunar landing ,so get a true hard evidence ..or stay silent forever .

And i'm telling you ,like Francis Key said over 200years .. Our Flag was still there

[nodlon20]

@kapkoba OMG! I guess you believe the earth is flat and you will fall off of it if you travel too far by ship?? LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[baldurus1]

Fox "news" take note, this is how you cover news. With integrity and truth.

[nodlon20]

@baldurus1 AMEN to that!

[Whitedevil222]

Walter Cronkite was a REAL journalist. Unlike today. Today's "newscasters" make me sick.

[scottmyers63]

Vivid memories of both the moon landing...and Cronkite's passing a year ago.

[nodlon20]

@scottmyers63 Me too. Seems like a time in our lives was over with when Cronkite passed away. He was so enthusiastic about the space program and it was contagious. I wish our country would get more back to doing things like this again! I feel like we're going backwards!!

[il0vepeewee]

This is so cool its scary. I wana work at NASA ;[

[ctxnews]

i wish cronkite was still here,he was a great journalist,man,and commentator.

[FoulMouthedChick]

Why can't things like this happen more often? A single, breathtaking moment in history, uniting people all across the world, sharing their dreams and hopes for the future. I sincerely hope that mankind will eventually put aside its petty struggles and strive for a better tomorrow together.

[Lafayette320]

Great; Dick Nixon making the most historic telephone call; and Cronkite's narration, "...38 year old American walking on the surface of he moon."

Great moments in history; great days.

[mackieap]

Fantastic, simply fantastic.

[sheerskylane]

just think in 2019 it will be 50 years

[ThrilloVanHouten]

...whoa!

[Rob260259]

@sheerskylane

I hope I'm 60 in 2019...
