Reminds me of the time I got a quiz question wrong; who was the first Man on the Moon.
I wasn't born, but everything I've ever read said it was Neil Armstrong, so that's what I answered.
The idiot quiz master said it was Buzz Aldrin (the second man). In disbelief, I tried to educate them of their error, only for the rest of the room, mainly boomers, to tell me I was wrong. Including one guy in his 80s who said "It was definitely Buzz. I watched it when it happened. I remember it well".
I asked him "who said the famous 'one small step for man'?"
Him: "Ahh yes, Now that was Armstrong."
Me: "Surely Buzz would say those words if he was the first one out. I mean there is literally video of the event. You even watched it live"
Him: "Yes, it's Armstrong in the video. But Buzz was definitely first out. Who do you think was holding the camera?"
Is this satire? The camera was mounted on the outside of the lunar module
