I dispute that statistic, having recently (2 mins ago) consulted 8 people including myself exactly none think the moon landings were faked.

Admittedly the sample size isn't all that big.....

Not a sufficiently big enough sample of people as you say old bean!

The true hoax is that Neil Amstrong was the "first" man on the Moon. The Russians landed before Apollo 11 and their mission malfunctioned, and hence covered up.

Hang about.

The moon was claimed as part of the British Empire under Queen Victoria well over 80 years before those Yankees popped up.

Indeed. Our Rocket was launched 6th October 1829 and arrived 14 October 1829.

What incredibly thick bastards are out there. But we knew that already how stupid people are to ignore the facts.

And all because of the film Capricorn One made some 10 years afterwards about a faked Mars landing.

I bet there are more than 1 in 4 on cuk.......

Some nice pictures there but still not very clear, in hindsight I bet they kick themselves for not gathering moon rock and spelling out "WE WAS ERE" in 100ft letters.
