  • I remember my 3rd grade teacher trying to explain to the class that the flag waving was actually a metal flag shaped like it was waving. Even at my young age I could tell that he himself didn't believe that.

  • @MetalGearRexPilot And by the way they say at the end of this video "Until someone can find video of the flag moving without it being manipulated by astronauts, it's busted". Mythbusters obviously didn't do their research well enough. Because there is video of the flag waving a little without the astronauts touching it. But obviously they are not going to put that on t.v.

  • @MetalGearRexPilot People are always trying to make video's explaining why the shadows are going different ways, and why there are no stars in the sky, etc. But nobody is trying to explain the real evidence, and the reason why that is they simply can't. We don't have the technology to send a man to the moon today let alone 40 years ago. You don't need to be a scientist to know the radiation in space. I hope one day we do go to the moon. But we don't have the technology yet.

  • @gxsrbaby 2 things. 1: Are you a physicist, engineer, astronaut, or a sort of interplanetary expert? Any degrees saying you're a well versed expert? You just gonna read what you see on the internet and believe it instantly? 2: Why in the hell does it matter?

  • @wisudiva didn't you just watch this video?

  • They doesn't need to do this actually i mean the gravitation on the moon is practically weaker than my diabetic grandma and lemme tell ya,she can't even walk by herself and when those guys stab the flag because the gravitation on the moon is really weak it take time for something that is moving to stop moving

    i'm not trying to be a wise guy here so whatever

  • @gxsrbaby poop

  • @rich1051414 Just for the sake of argument, let's just pretend the astronauts survived through the heavy radiation, and a miracle happened. There is so much evidence that we didn't land on the moon, that I cannot fit on here. Try to explain why the film did not get damaged between the radiation and the tempature. It was 250 degrees on the moon and film melts at a 150. They must of had one hell of an air conditioner up there.

  • @rich1051414 You do understand there are other sources of radiation other than solar flares, and within the belt there are always a constant level of radiation. I know NASA has an excuse and answere for everything, but with as many people believing we did not land on the moon you would think somebody somewhere would put things like this to the test. But no we get people like Mythbusters trying to explain shadows.
