Dark Mission 1 - NASA Moon Hoax - Analysis of the Lunar PhotographyMay 18, 2012
Part 1: Analysis of the Lunar Photography - This compelling video throws into serious doubt the authenticity of the Apollo missions and features information that challenges the declared abilities of NASA to successfully send a man to the Moon and return him safely to Earth. New evidence clearly suggests that NASA hoaxed pictures allegedly taken on the lunar surface. These findings are supported by analysis and the testimony of experts from a wide variety of scientific disciplines. Note: This was the hardest film for us to post here at UFOTV, as most of us were born around the Apollo era and many of us hold NASA's achievement of landing a Man on the Moon and bringing him safely back, as sacred. But in the interest of remaining neutral and posting all information on controversies in science, regardless of our personal beliefs and those of the management at UFOTV, we bring you what critics have chosen as the greatest filmed investigation on this matter to date. As powerful as the evidence presented in this film and its sister film may seem, we highly recommend that you view our film called "Quantum Hologram & ESP - Astronaut Edgar Mitchell," that sheds light on Edgar Mitchell's experience as the 6th man to walk upon the Moon and his experience aboard Apollo 14 at that time. His experience during this mission as described on this presentation must not be overlooked.

Dad Shoots Laptop: VIDEO HOAX EXPOSEDMay 13, 2012
"Email has been sent." In this video I expose Tommy Jordan's "Facebook Parenting" video as a hoax. The Keith Larson radio show has my video posted on their website. www.wbt.com They have also requested an on-air interview with me concerning Tommy Jordan's hoax video. Also, Tommy Jordan (username "alornmage") has now responded to my video in the comment section below. You'll notice from Tommy's comment that he doesn't attempt to refute my video, but instead, he resorts to personally attacking and slandering me. As I've said before...the bit dog always barks. Tommy, you know your video was a hoax...and you know that I know it. Here's a link to the vet's mobile veterinary practice, which treats large farm animals. www.bearcreekvet.net A link to the vet's spay and neutering clinic. If you click the drop down menu "About Us" and then click "Staff," you'll see Tommy with the title "administrative and technical staff." What that translates to is gopher and answering the phone. If it wasn't for the vet giving him things to do at this clinic, he might have to actually find a steady job. spayneuter.bearcreekvet.net He calls himself an "IT guy," but the vet's clinic lists him as an employee there. If he was in fact an "IT guy," why would he be working as a helper in a vet's office? His "website" for his "book" has a picture of him in a suit and tie attempting to look official and important. His "book" is nothing more than an enlarged pamphlet that he paid to have printed. The ...
