This photo might highlight two women having fun at the beach.



But on more insightful look, it shows the stack difference between two races, two religions and raises more questions than it answers.

A world apart indeed.

The first US citizens to invade the Moon.


How could you be so alone in such a place?


Everyone knows Neil Armstrong, no one knows his partner who allowed him to go forward so he can take the photos, if not this images would not be available.

He wasn't alone., Buzz Aldrin Landed with him. so they were two.
the third astronaut was orbiting, and waiting for them to finish the mission and dock with him in their Apollo module for the return flight.

So to everyone this is the picture of a skydiver smiling to the photographer just before a jump. But There is something no-one except the skydiver, Stephen Hidler knows, he had cut the fibre holding his parachute in an attempted suicide. Interviewees had it that, Hidler was a man who would have loved to die a fascinating death.


He plummeted 13,000 feet to his death.

There is a possibility he could have survived it(just like the baby that was caught by onlookers at the London Grenfell Fire Outbreak).I was only hoping it to be so. There was no need for the insults


Grenfell tower was a mere 20 floor.


Baby was thrown from nothing higher than the 11th floor..

Baby was caught by onlookers.



World Trade Center was the tallest at it's time. 110 floors


Have you seen an image of the size of the plane on impact with the building?


The plane hit the building at worse the 50th floor.



Most people who jumped where stuck above the impact zone, 51st floor and above.


That means the Falling Man would have jumped from, lowest possible, the 20th floor.



My lady, if you saw on Wikipedia that an human or superhuman jumped from the 11th storey of a building and lived on, won't you get a cane, hunt down the editor and flog the bullocks out of him.



Let me put it more politely, my lady, accept cerebrum.



Would appreciate more questions on any misconception.

The boy was a victim of a terror attack, a bombing precisely. Unfortunately, he didn't survive.

To me it is fake.


Like you said...to you.

Russia does not believe Bashir Assad's airstrikes kills mainly civilians (item 2 on ur list) or that he is using chemical weapons too.

Conspiracy theorists swear that the lunar landings were fake (item 13 on ur list).

Iran officially does not believe that Jews suffered genocide (item 15 on ur list).

What of our own Chibok girls abduction?

What should be done each time some people refuse to believe certain events? Break their heads

To each man their own opinions/beliefs jare. I ain't even debating such beliefs with anybody.

No he didn't. He would have been world-famous if he did. He remains unknown officially.

Although researchers with the aid of video scrutiny, believe he worked as a chef in a restaurant located in the building (can't remember it's name). His family confirms this too.

The Space Shuttle disaster was an accident that killed all crew members, just seconds into the launch. It was well documented on video, and was a result of human error.


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Shuttle_Challenger_disaster



Pic 1: Very happy crew members board the Ill-fated shuttle.



Pic 2: The shuttle explodes seconds into the launch killing all on board.


Pic 3: The disbelief on the faces from the control room, plus the icicles on the launch tower. NASA was warned about extreme unfavourable weather.
There were two shuttle disasters. THE CHALLENGER and THE COLUMBIA.

I know you are talking about THE COLUMBIA here.

A photo showing three Bali United footballers celebrating a victory on Sunday(June 6,.2017) in Bali is a beautiful statement about multiculturalism and tolerance on the Island of the Gods. While Bali is predominantly Hindu, the island is home to Christian, Buddhist, and Muslim minorities.

The football players were not directed to pose in prayer, but just found themselves spontaneously celebrating in the way they best knew how, says the Bali United coach, Widodo C. Putro.

Ngurah Nanak, a Hindu, stands tall, touching his hands together to his head, Yabes Roni, a Christian, kneels and clasps his hands together, while Miftahul Hamdi, a Muslim, bows his head to the ground


Three Religions, One Team.

Our terrible ability to capture tragic moments in Nigeria is the reason we aren't so sharp historically..I'm sure if we could capture moments..Nigeria would have like 2,000 pictures that are tragic..The day Tafawa Balewa was murdered in cold blood,How about the day Muritala was murdered..The moment MKO gave up the ghost,What did he say?..What of the day Kudirat was murdered?..The day Okparaji died?.The Nyanya Bombing nko?..

TAFAWA BALEWA wasn't murdered in cold blood, he died of likely asthma attack after he was abducted... Ekotie Eboh lying by he's side was riddled with bullets and he's corpse was already swollen... Balewas corpse was intact, fresh and no gunshots wounds.

****************
That been said We can still make amends..Like we can capture the moment Saraki would finally be caught by God?..Or the day Obasanjo would cry for all his atrocities..Or the look on Babangida's face when he stares death in the eye..Or Rev King's last words..Or Shekau's final moments...

You got knocked the **** out.


Mohammed Ali vs Sonny Liston



One of the greatest upsets in the world of sports. Liston was the most intimidating fighter of his day, and considered by some, at the time of the Clay fight, to be among the best heavyweights of all time. Many were reluctant to meet him in the ring. Henry Cooper , the British champion, said he would be interested in a title fight if Clay won, but he was not going to get in the ring with Liston. Cooper's manager, Jim Wicks, said, "We don't even want to meet Liston walking down the same street."
By this time Clay had not changed his name to Ali.



The match was very controversial, when Ali knocked him hit he taunted him by saying," get up and fight ". If you look closely at the picture, you will see the shock on the faces of the spectators. Most notably, if you look through the legs of Ali you will see a man with his mouth wide open.

Match fixing at it's peak... Ali didn't even touch him. Sonny had to remit funds to the Mafia that finally killed him.

A gas chamber is an airtight room that is filled with poisonous gases, to kill people by extreme reaction. The Auschwitz concentration camp was a network of German Nazi concentration camps and extermination camps built and operated by the Third Reich in Polish areas annexed by Nazi Germany during World War II.



This was one of the many human experiments carried out by the Nazi regime. People, literally Jews, would claw at the walls, due to the reaction these gases cause to the nervous systems. Hope something this barbaric never surface again.
more barbaric things have happened one of which was the Rwanda genocide where more than 1million people were killed and the world did not hear of it until 100 days after because Kurt cobain body was found the day the genocide started after he had committed suicide, people were killed with matchetes and big sticks by repeated hacking or beating to death gas chamber would have been a more peaceful death + the deaths from the genocide was 3 times more than that of this Nazi and in the memorial hall number2 they put the pics of all the kids who died it was something like - gina (number112 i.e. 112th person named gina) age 6 favorite person: mom loves her dolls mode of death: matcheted to death john (40 i.e. 40th person named john) age 11 favourite person brother loves reading mode of death beating to death with a stick... it went on and on

Wow, the Rwandan Genocide was heavy but the MAXIMUM number of people that could have died is 1,000,000. And they were deliberately killed.




But nothing beats the Holocaust, the MINIMUM number of Jews killed was 6,000,000. Most of whom were not deliberately killed, experiments were carried out on most. Like trying to create conjoined twins, eye transplant, how long can you survive underwater, how long can you survive in the presence of some poisonous gases.



The Rwandan genocide lasted 4 months, while the Holocaust lasted 292 months, over 12 years.

Mafia killed him?..Well I heard a different version..I read Liston was threatened by Black Moslems then..Whom at that time turned their backs on Malcom X and killed him..Liston didn't want to be the next victim hence the surrender through the phantom punch..History has it that those at ringside saw Liston's eyes moving left to right for more than 10secs.

I meant on asking the average Citizen "Who were the first peeps to step on the moon?". Everyone would chant Armstrong, while Aldrin will be oblivious to most.


Even schools rarely teach about him. In other words, Armstrong, surveyed the moon on his own.
