Hammer and Feather moon hoax video.

This thread is going to be sweet and short, and that's all that is needed.




Why does the feather twitch and move at :20?

Some of you may say it's because of his thumb moving it, that would look like it if that was the case. But, it's not. The feather looks like it's an extension of the thumb. Look at the bottom of the feather at 0:20, you can see the bottom part of the feather re-flexing as it's being pulled by something, it's not his thumb.

Why does the feather bounce at the end when it hits the ground? It jumps at least a few inches before it hits the ground again. Feathers wouldn't do that, but a plastic one would have.

Another thing, if you say a feather and hammer can't hit at the same time on earth, your sadly mistaken. All you would have to do would put a metal rod inside the feather, or create your own *almost* vacuum chamber.

Zoomed in version.

You didn't read anything about what I said about the thumb. His thumb didn't move, it looks like the bottom part of the feather is an extension of his thumb. Look at it again.


The feather jumped a few inches before hitting the ground. Look at it again.

Well, NASA is tried to prove that the feather and hammer would fall at the same time if they were on the moon. I'm trying to prove that you can make a hammer and feather drop at the same time on the earth.

But most importantly, look at 0:20 and watch how the feather moves.

Then look at the end, the feather bounces upwards before hitting the ground.

You never read what I said, read it again and rewatch the video

No it did not, watch it again.

You are just seeing what you want to!

If its fake, somebody should recreate the whole thing EXACTLY how it was done originally.... Then claim its fake....

I've watched this video over and over again. Watched the zoomed in version as well. The thumb, as you can see in the video, looks like the white extension part of the thumb. It's not, because the bottom part of the feather reflexes. A thumb wouldn't do that.

Seeing what I want to see? You don't have to put on your "They live" sunglasses to see it. The feather bounces on the ground and comes back down.

Sorry, but I saw the same thing. Movement in the thumb. And certainly no bouncing feather. Probably trick of the light as the feather touches the ground.

That's what I see in any case.

No, hold the end of a pencil between your thumb and finger, you only have to move your thumb a few mm to have the end of the pencil move cm's. It is called a lever....

no it doesnt.

His thumb never moved. Are you talking about the white part of the feather that reflexes that look like it's the thumb? A thumb can't reflex like that in the first place.

The feather clearly bounces, it's not hard to see.

I don't know how many times I've seen that video, and I still don't see anything odd about it.

At one point he manipulates the feather a little. As far as bouncing, I see no bouncing of the feather either before or after it hits the ground. But that's just a judgment call. That video is so badly pixelated that I don't see how anyone could make that call definitively either way.

I'd be tempted to call bull***t, but that too would just be a judgment call....

I don't know how you guys can't see this.

Look at :37-:39.

His finger did move

There is no "trick of light" because when the feather bounces, you can see the moon's dirt, but when it comes back down, it blocks some of the dirt.

What finger are you talking about? Are you talking about the bottom part of the feather that reflexes? That's not his thumb, and if it was, that's impossible due to the fact that thumbs cant make that motion.

Oh well you cant. The feather has wind resistance. It's why birds have them. A hammer on the other hand, is meant to be wielded.

The way a feather falls is evidence that it is affected by the wind resistance.

If a hammer rocked back and forth as it floated down, not only would acme cartoons be seriously unfunny, but they'd make terrible tools to bang nails into wood with.

the old rubber feather trick

I see no bounce.

Sorry, but even trying to see it, I cannot.

and, well, feathers don't even bounce on earth.

What is the suggestion?
