here is a new documentary about the faking russians....

Uploaded by UFOTVstudios on Dec 7, 2011

Narrated by Elliott Gould. Includes secret film footage never seen until now. After 15 years of research, filmmakers have discovered brand-new evidence that reveals a scandalous conspiracy surrounding the death of one of the old Soviet Union's most famous cosmonauts, Colonel Vladimir Komarov. When Komarov and the new Soyuz rocket was launched into space on the morning of April 23rd, 1967, his spaceship had catastrophic failures that began almost immediately. His ship lost power on re-entry and Komarov was killed instantly on impact. The Soviet government was not about to admit this failure on the 50th anniversary of the creation of the Soviet Union and covered up the entire incident by saying that Komarov's mission had been a big success, but that he later was killed in a bus crash. Only one man in the entire Soviet Union, Komarov's best friend Yuri Gagarin, was strong enough to force the government to tell the truth about what really happened to Komarov during his space flight. This program includes secret archival footage that has never been seen by the public, until now.

That's the most well known case of the a phantom cosmonaut.

Picture this.

On that same month, NASA was to launch Shepherd as the first amercan in space, but the mission was delayed because of some "small problems". But the next month Russians faked the Gagarin space cruise, while shepherd made the "first American in space" deed a month later.

Several phantom astronauts lost their lives burnt in space. (Space is a furnace ... that's the REAL conspiracy).

Good vid

January 2011

China’s state-run CCTV aired a news story describing air force training exercises. A portion of the video showing an exploding jet plane was taken from the movie “Top Gun”, as seen in this side-by-side comparison.

The BBC reported that one person familiar with CCTV said that this was not the first time movie footage was used in a news report, which is most common in stories about the military, science, and technology. --- Yeah right :badair:

U.S. Army Topples Saddam Hussein's Statue, Pretends it was Iraqis

One of the most memorable images from the invasion of Iraq was the toppling of Saddam Hussein's statue, portrayed by the media as a spontaneous action of celebration by the Iraqi people. Most news outlets used closely cropped photos like the one used by the BBC on the above right.

Images taken from further out however show, show a tiny cluster of Iraqis huddled around the statue in an otherwise empty area. A 2004 Army report revealed that the whole thing was actually orchestrated by the U.S. PSYOP division, who came up with the idea to topple the statue and gathered a bunch of Iraqis together to mislead the media as to what happened.

Wait, they really did find Saddam later, right?

Andy Roddick Too Skinny for Men's Fitness

Hey, the ladies aren't the only ones getting Photoshop boob jobs these days! Look at the pecs on that guy!

In 2007, Men's Fitness ran a feature on how to build big arms. To show off how to build a massive, Arnold Schwarzenegger-esque upper body they used... tennis star Andy Roddick?

This picture was posted by NASA as the Astronomy Picture of the Day in August 2011

With the following caption

Can you find the Summer Triangle? It's not hard to find this famous triangle of stars this time of year from northern locations. Just look straight up after sunset and find three of the brightest stars in the sky that nearly form a triangle. Then compare these stars to sky images like the one shown above, or hold up a smart phone running a good sky labelling application. The three stars that form the vertexes of the Summer Triangle are Vega, Deneb, and Altair. Pictured above is a 360 degree full sky projection framing not only the Summer Triangle but the great arch of our Milky Way Galaxy. The image was taken last week in front of a small river that encircles the historic town of Sant Llorenç de la Muga in Catalonia, northeastern Spain.

In fact it's a poorly photoshopped image representing nerverland
