Go outside in the sand. Go to a golf course and get in a sandtrap, I don't care, but make a video of you jumping that DUPLICATES (albeit at a much higher gravity) those effects and THEN you will have proven it.
Until then it's just what I say and what you say.
I've explained the physics of it.
In the November 1967 issue of Science Digest, an article appeared by James R. Berry entitled, "How to Walk on the Moon."1 In it, Berry predicted that men would be able to make 14-foot slow-motionleaps, perform backflips and other gymnastics like professionals, and be able to easily move up ladders and poles with their arms. Another prediction was given in 1969 by the Writers of U.S. News & World Report in U.S. on the Moon: With gravity on the moon only one-sixth as strong as it is on earth, a home-run hitter in a lunar baseball game could drive a ball well over half a mile. A golfer's drive from the tee would sail clear over the horizon.
So you started a whole thread about "I can debunk anything pertaining to the moon landing to being a hoax" to "running is not hopping." Good one. I got some footage coming for YOU.
A standing vertical jump of at least 18 inches on Earth can be accomplished by exerting an upward force of around 500 pounds by a 185-pound person. . Since a jump from a standing vertical position only requires the knees to bend slightly, the spacesuits would not have hampered the astronauts appreciably. The televised pictures of John Young on the Moon indicated that he was able to utilize his arms and legs for jumping in an essentially normal manner. . This means that even with the astronaut gear, Young should have been able to jump over six feet off the ground if the Moon had one-sixth of the Earth's gravity. In actuality, his efforts lifted him at most 18 inches off the ground.
A photo appeared in the December 12, 1969 issue Of Life magazine showing Apollo 12 astronaut Alan Bean carrying a barbell-shaped package of instruments which allegedly weighed 190 Earth pounds. The accompanying statement that it had a Moon weight of only 30 pounds does not seem consistent with the photo which shows a noticeable bow in the approximately 1-inch bar. The movie film of this event is even more revealing. As Bean carried the instrument package across the lunar surface, the bar bent up and down, strained by the heavy burden on each end.

The bar bent up and down because its mass was unaffected by lunar gravity. This means that inertia and momentum remained the same. It was easier to overcome the inertia when lifting it because less force was required due to lessened gravity, but once it was flying upward, the momentum was the same as on Earth. This is what caused the bar to bend, not the "weight" on either end, but the mass.

Why do you think I put "air" in quotes you moron??
...
I was talking about being pulled "on the moon."
