Colin Furze, he’s done some pretty mental things but this might be the craziest. I’m suprised he didn’t chop his own legs off

Here you go Zac, proof...

It’s not a star, it’s a circle. 
 

Scraping the barrel a bit now Zac…

At least he's good comedy value, however shit your day has been you can turn on the news and laugh at his latest pontifications. 

Its that or a v-max or possibly an Indian scout. The first two would undoubtedly be easier to flog on if and when needed. 

When the weather gets a bit better I need to go try them.

I'm a bit bigger than average so it might suit me, but have to admit I've never sat on one...

That looks lovely, I assume by the lack of Costa coffee cups, assorted red bull cans and N2O canisters littered about the place it isn't in the UK. 

I have a hankering for a Triumph Rocket, I need to do the man maths to justify it, and I can just about fit another bike in the garage ...  

Hey Zak ...

Is this witchcraft, or basic physics (which you seem to have slept through at school)... quite obviously it's witchcraft because having shadows going in differing directions from a point light source is impossible.

There is only one light source on the Moon, you may have heard of it, its called the Sun, sunlight can only cast shadows in one direction, there's no arguing that, so why are there shadows going is two directions, simple question, the answer is that there was more than one light source, as there was only one on the Moon that means that the photos were taken in a studio, any questions ?

Hey Zak, you ain’t the dumbest guy in the world, but you better hope he doesn’t die…

How many sources does the light come from in this photo?

Still haven't answered on the lack of tyre marks and how come the astronaut got in front of the cross, it should have been in front of him surely, by the way I like that you support Trump, any mention of him is support because it brings his name to the fore and I'm not talking about golf, there's another oddity, when the astronaut hit the golf ball someone at Houston commented on its slice, you can't slice a ball where there is no atmosphere, same with flags, no air means no flutter.

Is your word salad aimed at me? 
 

Every crackpot argument someone here proves to be rubbish just pushes you back to the web to come up with something else. Do your own research into why whatever you come up with is crap, I would say it’s not my job to educate you but I’m not sure educating you is possible. You are determined to believe this no matter how often you are shown your latest “evidence “ is wrong. 
 

No idea what you are on about with the golf stuff and I’ve never seen a video of the flag flapping, I cannot believe one exists.

Garbage ... 2/10, taken out of context, clearly aimed at the easily led.  

Watch the whole interview where he mentions more about the trip/landing/coming home. In your part clip he is clearly referring to why we haven't been back to the moon in a long while as per the question he was asked by the young girl.  Buzz once actually punched a conspiracy theorist in the chops - wasn't you was it? 

Whole interview - 

How ever many times your flimsy "proofs" are shown to be inaccurate you just go back to the web to look for more rather than actually think about the accuracy of what you post. It's called confirmation bias, look it up. 

Yeah, a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent

That's so ironic it's funny
I list some facts and you say "no", twat

Evidently reading isn’t your strong point. I didn’t respond to any of your “facts” , just your comment to zzzzack, I suggest you go back and read what I posted, preferably with help from an adult.

It's very true zzak, people seem to be oblivious to the facts in front of them
Animal and plant life grew faster than at any other time in Earth's history when CO2 in the atmosphere was 400 times what it is now
We are still technically in an ice age (determined by there being ice on the polar caps), we are in fact on the exit side of the curve right now and the Earth is going to get warmer, no question and now way to stop it, Human's influence will count for absolutely nothing.

The people I worked with at the Woodland Trust came up with a dumb climate change saying "Trees eat carbon for breakfast" to which I responded "so why exactly is it you wish to get rid of carbon?"

No, some people are oblivious to the fact that their argument is incorrect.

Maybe the astronaut wouldn't cook, as nobody has ever been there we'll never know for sure so lets move on to the many anomalies such as where are the tracks from the Rover, the footprints are quite obvious so how did the Rover get to where it was photographed, that's a fair question, also how about  these two  ?

A camera panned upwards to catch Apollo 16’s Lunar Lander lifting off the Moon. Who did the filming?

The powerful booster rocket at the base of the Lunar Lander was fired to slow descent to the moons service. Yet it has left no traces of blasting on the dust underneath. It should have created a small crater, yet the booster looks like it’s never been fired…

Those are just two of many unanswered questions, lets start with who panned the camera during liftoff, that should be an easy one to answer.

 We know the astronaut wouldn’t cook because, well … physics. 
 

A page or two back you posted a few memes on why NASA hadn’t been to the moon, two of them have been easily disproved. Does that not make you question the veracity of the others which are bandied around to support your argument? If further arguments are disproved are you just going to keep trawling the net for more ad infinitum? We could still be having this discussion in 10 years because there are literally millions of “it can’t be true because of xyz” arguments out there. How many crackpot arguments being disproved would it take for you to accept that man has been to the moon?

You can land a spacecraft on the Moon but you can't land people on the Moon, is that to hard for you to understand, daytime temperatures near the lunar equator reach a boiling 250 degrees Fahrenheit (120° C, 400 K), while nighttime temperatures get to a chilly -208 degrees Fahrenheit (-130° C, 140 K). 

There is no atmosphere to provide any protection from the Suns rays, if I put a leg of lamb in a 250f oven its cooked in about 3 hours so any astronauts would be well done after 21 hours, there are many many more anomolies such as who adjusted the camera when the lander took off, did they have a special camera or something ?

Gullible you say, I know who the gullible one is.

 

When I was writing my post above I was wondering if you were serious in your posts or just trying to get a reaction, hence the content, but oh wow, you really do seem to believe it. 

since you have been rattling on about cooking lamb I suggest you do a bit of research about the physics of heat transfer. When you put your dinner in the oven there will be a heater somewhere in there which heats up the air in the oven and fan to circulate it around your leg of lamb. Leg of lamb is in direct contact with hot air and heat transfer occurs by conduction. 

There is no atmosphere on the moon so there is no medium to allow heat transfer by conduction. The ambient temp in space is close to absolute zero. 

When you step out of shadow into sunshine the heat you are feeling is the suns radiation, much like putting your hand under an infra red lamp or those radiant heaters you see outside pubs. Next time you are out for a beer try putting a bit of a Mylar heat blanket between you and the radiant heater. Surprise surprise you will find the heating effect disappears. Anything light coloured or reflective with achieve broadly the same effect. 
 

Space suits contain multiple layers of reflective material just for that purpose, and its occupant will be wearing clothing containing water tubes the circulation of which can be adjusted by the wearer to heat or cool as required. 
 

Have a look at the design of the James Web telescope ( unless you think that is a conspiracy too). For it to function correctly the telescope side needs to be as close to 0 kelvin as possible. The other side which faces the suns radiation is 400k or so. To get from 400k down to 40k or so all you need are 5 layers of very reflective Mylar type material. 
 

Body temp at 37c is 310kelvin.

I took your advice and read up on rebreathers and concede that you may have a point however that's a minor detail in the overall hoax, lets look at the lander, when they got out of the Suns 135C temps to relax did they pull the paper door closed, that's a NASA photo by the way, I know, lets ask the astronauts themselves, they don't appear to be to thrilled except for Buzz,, if I had been to the Moon and someone asked about it I wouldn't shut up, after this Neil Armstrong removed himself from public life.

 

about 400,000 people took part in getting the Apollo program to the moon, so they must all be in on the conspiracy

Japan, China, Russia, India have all had craft orbiting the moon or have landed there so they must be in on it as the USA landing sites are well publicised and it would be obvious if the left over hardware wasn’t there

The US left a laser reflector on the moon which scientists regularly ping as part of experiments, so they must all be in on it

The US ( I think) has a craft in low orbit around the moon at the moment sending back photos so all the people involved in that must be in on it

Amateur star gazers can see the Apollo landing sites with the left over hardware with a reasonably good home telescope and even see the astronaughts  tracks as they wandered about the place, so home astronomers must all be in on it ( plenty of photos taken by various people on the web - but those are all nasa hoaxes too )

…but a bunch of conspiracy nerds all know better based on internet photos and memes…

…there is no limit to what you can persuade the gullible to think with a few memes, as demonstrated by how many witless idiots vote for Trump.

I’d love to spend a few days seeing the Normandy beaches, it’s on my list of things to do, though prob not by bike as the boss will want to take the dog. 
 

if I had my way looking at the Somme battlefields and commonwealth memorials would be a mandatory part of the school curriculum. Too many kids today have no idea what their great grandparents went through and the utter futility of European wars.

I hope not, but look at Finland and Sweden, they are making no bones about getting ready for possible conflict.    The UK, I dunno, doubt it.   Mind you we do have the football Gammons  Send in the Gammons.  

The Finns in particular have always been very conscious of their neighbour to the east. They still have national service and for such a small country they have a very capable military. Once you have done your military service you are rotated back through the system every so often for refresher training. 
 

Finland is one of my favourite places to visit, but for bloody Brexit I would have happily retired there. 

Given the turbulent airflow at the back of the bike as a result of the rider being in front of it I’m surprised it will any effect whatsoever. 
 

Stick it on a road bike with a lardy Sunday morning rider in front of it and it will have less than no effect except on the dealers bank account. 

It will doubtless be illegal here as it’s not propelled by peddles so can’t be classed as an e-bike and we are 10 years behind the rest of the world on e-scooters.  

FTR1200 for me. Although I do also really like the VMax…

Is the tent thing somehow anchored to the deck? I have a cover for my lawn mower ( because the garage is full of toys and there is no room in there any more) but the damn thing blows away in a mild breeze. I’ve had to tie it down in all the shit weather we’ve had recently.
