Sorry but your video is of several dune buggys traversing through sand. The Moon's dust is much, much smaller than the average grain of sand. It has the texture of talc or fine portland cement and would look more like this in an atmosphere:
The Moon's atmosphere is all but non-existent. However, your video does show the sand forming a parabolic arc as it comes off the tires. As you can see where I have highlighted them with the green indicators:
This can be seen at approximately 0:24 seconds.

Surely you can backpeddle faster than that.
Watching youtube is beyond you? There are hours of footage of astronauts moving and driving around. Dust clouds. Any time you like.

As I said, Apollo likely used sand in their fake footage, too.
Now, you've shown it has the same 'arc' shape, too.
Thanks.

No. I don't consider youtube to be source material when it comes to serious questions about Apollo film footage. In my entire history of ATS I have never referred to youtube as valid source material for analyzing film footage.
Here are some examples of valid source material, but only when the file is streamed from a .gov server.
If you watched some of these early Apollo films you can see how easily it is to edit film footage and audio clips to create a movie with more dramatic effect. These are the same type of propaganda films that were screened to American school kids through out the 1970's and 1980's.
I think the Apollo Defenders have not read any books on propaganda and how it works.

THERE IS A REVEALING DOCUMENTRY THAT TELLS THAT THE ORIGINAL LANDING, WAS ACTUALLY FILMED IN A CLOSED STAGE IN ENGLAND BY THE DIRECTOR OF THE MOVIE "SPACE 2001"
THE ACTORS WERE CIA. ALL SINGLE AND LATER ELIMINATED TO MAINTAIN SECRECY... THE DIRECTOR NEVER LEFT HIS HOME AGAIN UNTIL HIS NATURAL DEATH.. HIS WIFE CONFIRMED THE DOCUMENTRY'S FACTS.
THIS WAS ORDERED BY NIXON AND KISSINGER, AND CARRIED OF BY RUMSFELT AND THE CIA IN CASE THE MOON TV TRANSMISSIONS WERE BAD OR IF THE MISSION WENT BAD THE DEAL WAS TO ACT LIKE THE LANDING WAS MADE AND THE CREW AND SHIP WERE LOST ON RETURNING.
THEY ACTUALLY DID GO TO THE MOON BUT NONE OF THEIR PICTURES OR FILM SURVIVED THE SUN'S LIGHT AND RADIATION EFFECT.

I'd like to ask you what specific issues do you have with the Moon landing that has you questioning it?

I, too, don't trust anything blindly. That's why I believe the Apollo Moon landings were real, and Why I don't trust the Moon Hoax conspiracy.
The facts about the Moon landing are things you can find out for yourself. You can confirm whether or not you should trust something based on basic knowledge, a good scientific understanding, and critical thinking.
To me, when I apply my understanding of science and my critical thinking skills to the evidence put forth by the Hoax believers, I find what they say less trusting than when I apply that same level of scrutiny to the official story. There is just no "meat" in the Hoax theory -- it's just a bunch of scientifically ignorant rhetoric and wild speculation; why would I trust it?

DAMN, you just don't get it do you? LOL!!!
I NEVER said I believe one way or the other. I do NOTnecessarily believe there was a hoax. I simply do not trust the source. I DO ask questions, that is all I have done. Nothing more, nothing less.
WTF. Why do I bother.
Last post to this thread folks, seriously. Don't even bother responding and quoting this post at all.
Stick a fork in me, this thread is done for me.

SadistNocturne We're now making federal parks to "protect" our historical assets on the moon, including the prohibiting of low level flyovers. Why?
Now, please, before the deluge of "well, we've already told you, so here, I'll tell you AGAIN MR. HB", just accept the fact that I simply do not trust an feel that I have good reason not to trust what we are being told about the moon landings. This is based off of probable cause and simple pieces of history that don't really seem to add up logically to me.

(By the way, the exclusion zone for Apollo 11 is smaller than Apollo 17, because the Apollo 11 astronauts did not venture very far from the Lunar Module.)
While all the Apollo sites represent significant historical/heritage value in the material culture, the Apollo 11 and 17 landing sites carry special significance...It is recommended that the sites for Apollo 11 and 17 be treated as unique by prohibiting visits to any part of the site (and) that all vehicles remain beyond the boundaries of the entire site.
“It is recommended that the entire site at Apollo 11 and 17 be restricted from close inspection by visiting robotic systems. The visiting vehicle mobility exclusion boundary will encompass all artifacts (hardware, footprints, etc) for this site.”
The exclusion zone for Apollo 11′s site will result in a keep-out zone of 75 meters from the lunar module descent stage, where as the zone will extend 200-225 meters from the Apollo 17 site.
Source:
However, for the Apollo 12, 14, 15 and 16 sites, more access should be provided to individual components and artifacts, NASA added, allowing for future robotic missions to get within touching distance of Apollo hardware – as much as they won’t be allowed physical contact.
This additional access is shown as buffer zones, with a three meter buffer for descent stages, one meter buffer distance for the Lunar Rovers, experiments, sampling sites and flags, while no restrictions are recommended on the footprints and rover tracks outside the identified keep-out zones.

Geeze, if there was only some way we could use the shape of these arcs, and compare them somehow... If only, the strength of gravity was encoded somehow into their shapes... If only it had already been explained in this thread exactly how to do this....
Ah, well, I guess we'll never know.
Well, you'll never know, apparently.
Because you won't do it.
Even though I explained how.
You people won't do any real science to try to prove your points, is what I'm getting at, in case it's isn't clear.

turbonium1 doesnt understand basic physics.. given that he has enough trouble with basic maths this shouldnt come as a surprise.
must remember according to him you can walk faster on the moon than you can on earth, and by extention you can run faster on the moon than on earth.. even though both instances are governed by gravity.

Same pompous bs act, hoping to avoid the issue.
It won't work, no matter how often you try it.
If you can't address the evidence I've cited, it's worthless..
