They both went in high, that's factually correct, both tried to play the ball at height.  Doku with his foot, Mac Allister with his chest.

That’s one of their favourites that. Along with nonsense about photos not showing any stars and shadows “converging”.  All very easily explained, and explained dozens of times over.

Of course the propogators of these silly theories know perfectly well they’re a load of bunk, but there’s no money in going to conferences talking about the moon landings unless you were someway involved in the Apollo program, or in NASA.  There’s money in going to conspiracy theory conferences and selling books saying it never happened, you might occasionally get yourself on the telly.

I don’t think that’s true. I think Alex Jones knows it’s all shit but having dealt with quite a few of them and their acolytes they actually believe the the landings were faked, 9/11 was an inside job etc.

How can moon landings be real when the moon is only the size of coffee mug?

They use a shrinking ray to get the astronauts and the lunar module small enough to land.

So they have growth ray as well? I have seen Buzz Aldrin and he looks like a normal sized human to me.


I can see a growth ray to be a  revolutionary technology in Men's Health field.

No, they just used the shrinking ray to shrink everything else so Aldrin didn’t look so small.

The only thing that’s still the right size is the shrinking ray itself, which is hidden in Area 51.
Thinking is overrated.
The mind is a tool, it's not meant to be used that much.

No that's wrong. Aldrin may be small but the moon is far away.
