Trolls anyone
I'm not trolling at all, you can make money from youtube and some people do. You can gain money by views of your videos if you have videos with enough views (read over a couple hundred thousand views per video).
So no, not trolling, just stating fact. I also stated that the guy doesn't have enough views to make money so again, how was that trolling?
Deny ignorance instead of just calling troll

My apologies for jumping to conclusions by calling you a troll.It was just the lack of comments in regard to Jarrah's video themselves and the points he brings up that got me thinking that way.
Taken back

Ocker, what do you think about the idea that we did go to the moon, and that they edited those pictures or videos to hide something they found there? This isn't what I believe, personally; I have faith, where reason allows, in the honesty of the scientific community, and in its stated goal of advancing Human understanding.
Although individuals can be compromised, bought, manipulated, and fooled, I really can't believe that every scientist that has ever worked for NASA would not only agree to help the Federal government maintain this public charade, but actually do it, forever. Every single one of them would have had to be highly and personally motivated to do so; imagine the money to be made by the first one to come clean with a tell-all book and irrefutable evidence. Three people can keep a secret, if two of them are dead.

I wanted to post saying that I am perfectly aware that these "videos" were made public.
I am waiting on someone to post a link, so that I can begin the conversation about the radiation issue, which is the CORE of my argument.
When one looks at the high def images of the lander on the moon, I implore you to consider the amount of shielding used on the moon lander.
After looking at the hi def images of the incredibly poorly shielded astronauts and lander, one must ask the question.
Why are NASA's scientists so worried about radiation NOW?
They apparently used very little, if any, protection back in the day.
Why not just use more of the same type of protection that we used back then?
THAT WAS USED IN 1968.
Hmmmmmmm........
Maybe it is because we have never been to the moon in the manner that was propagandized to the people in 1968.

Valiant attempt, mate....I look forward to your next.
Unfortunately, we are ( in some instances ) "preaching to the choir" here.
It is sad. Truly.
I actually talked to a Russian friend of mine and her and some of her friends don't believe we actually been to the moon.
She is an Astrophysicist.

Twelve pages ago, I asked the people that believe that we never went to the moon a question: why couldn't we have done so? What prevents us from achieving this using the technology at our disposal?
Nobody even made an attempt at answering my question. This is information that I would really like to have, and it would help me understand this movement a lot better... it might even help the ATS community take your claims more seriously.
If anyone representing this movement could please respond to this post, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

Uh huh....wow....you have actually TALKED to someone, from Russia, who was alive back in the 1960s??

Oh. I see. Well, that's certainly definitive. Have anything else?
She is an Astrophysicist.
Huh? Is that an excuse, or a compliment? Can't tell which.
Ever try exposing her (the "Astrophysicist") to some of the DOZENS (charitably) of books on the topic of the USA space program? OR, the so-called 'space race', as it pertains to the era of the "cold war" paradigm, back then...AND compare it to the actual, factual information that was revealed AFTER the USSR failed, and the full extent of the Soviet "bluff" in space was revealed??
THIS SORT OF information is very, very available, if one just bothers to research into it.
The USSR, in many of their "stunts" as propaganda in the "space race" were, frankly...."stunts".
The USA could NOT reveal that they knew of this deception, because to do so would have revealed their top-secret unmanned satellite program already in place....and other ways of obtaining intel. THIS is fully available, in books and other reference materials, if you bother to search.
USA was WAY, way ahead of the USSR....because USSR was plotting 'stunts', while NASA was following a planned progressive approach.
The actual 'Cosmonauts' of the day applauded the efforts of the Apollo Astronauts...look this up, too. There was envy, there.....
Remember the "historic first" when USSR put the first 'woman' into orbit?
They selected this poor custodian woman, who was NOT trained as a "Cosmonaut", and used her as a propaganda tool. She was TERRIFIED the entire time...BUT, she was compelled to read a scripted speech, whilst on orbit...for the propaganda....
This is not secret, anymore. WAS then, not now.
Go out. Open your eyes, and LEARN!!!!

And yet just above, you refuse to be specific about the 'good' points and the refutations.
Is there not some hypocrisy there? You laud his videos, but when asked to be specific, you decline. Then tell others off for the 'lack of comments'...
FTR, *I* refuted the first video posted in the OP back here:
www.abovetopsecret.com...
How about commenting on my comments?

lack of links or citations
He uses completely inappropriate 'analogies' and 'demonstrations'
JW presents the possible reasons (proposed by another - anyone noticing a pattern here?) for the movement, namely:
1. The astronaut brushed the pole and/or flag.
2. He kicked dirt against the pole
3. His foot 'pushed' a mound of regolith in such a way that it moved the pole
4. The vibration of his boots moved the pole and/or set up a resonance.
5. A static charge effect caused the flag to be attracted and/or repelled
6. There was an emission (eg from a pressure valve) on the astronauts suit or PLSS that impinged on the flag.
you say.... sorry you could not be more WRONG
