During the feather drop, the actor in the film held the feather so it was pointing straight down, streamlined in its direction of motion, however, the Apollo 16 astronaut held the feather on its side.

@david52875 One of MANY problems with that "experiment."

Something to ponder: why is he wearing a lab coat? There's no danger to his street clothes.

I suspect that Percy's feather and hammer video uses a fake feather. I real feather would flap around as it fell and it certainly wouldn'y bouce on hitting the ground. I think he might have used a metal feather.

@PayasYouListen "I suspect that Percy's feather and hammer video uses a fake feather."

What evidence do you have that it was faked?

"I real feather would flap around as it fell"

Not if there's no air.

"and it certainly wouldn'y bouce on hitting the ground."

Please show your math resulting in a coefficient of restitution between a falcon feather and lunar regolith as being near-zero. Remember to show your work!

@shanedk No I mean Percy's guy in labcoat video uses a fake feather. There is obviously air there as the guy is alive. I think he's lying, using a his own fake because what we see in the NASA footage cannot be reproduced with a real feather on Earth.

Well OK. I admit we can't see labcoat guy's head and he might have some sort of breathing apparatus and he'll be in some sort of vacuum chamber, but that seems a bit of a stretch.

@PayasYouListen "No I mean Percy's guy in labcoat video uses a fake feather."

Oh, I see--my fault for not reading carefully. Yes, I agree the one in the bogus demo is a fake feather. I thought you were talking about the one actually taken on the moon.

man i cant even watch this video to the end. Its not because of the video maker. I m sick to my stomach to listen what these hoaxers say. They dont even deserve a respond of any kind

[AbelMagwitch73]

I am amused how hoaxers can ignore loads of genuine evidence of the moon landings and make wild claims about huge conspiracies on the basis of an odd shadow. I think this video proves that hoaxers are lying and that they know they are. However, I must admit I don't know why.

[TuxedoClam]

@shanedk Because stupid people care more about appearances than about scientific accuracy, and these blathering hoaxtards know how to exploit those people.

[NUTCASE71733]

Hehehe, today at work the footprints and lunar rover were photographed from the moon's orbit via satelite. SUCK IT HOAXTARDS!

[andromidius]

@MWcrazyhorse I dunno, pandering to such 'theories' only invites more spread of misinformation. Which is definately a bad thing! So I think hammering the nail into things like this is still a good idea.

[NUTCASE71733]

now, unless you already did this one (or don't wish to do it) the 9/11 truther nonsense needs to be debunked.

[PayasYouListen]

@shanedk No worries mate. Well done for quick replies though. I just thought that could have been mentioned in the video.
