I fully agree that mythbusters was a fraud FatFreddy.
when the astronaut twist the flag pole the flag is given momentum , and the flag is not made of a rigid material so the flags momentum is slowly transfered from the top of the flag to the bottom of the flag.
the flag is not weightless , and since the flags weight is being pulled downwards by the moons gravity the flag appears to wave in the wind.
all that is happening is the flag is given momentum , the flag reacts to that momentum , the flag pendulums , then it comes to a stop because the moons gravity has pulled the flag down as far as it can.
this video shows no proof that the moon landings were faked , it only shows that mythbusting by mythbusters is a myth.
just like the compressed air powered boat , that mythbusters said wouldnt work , even though they installed the nozzle above the bottom of the boat so that it would fail as soon as the boat started moving.
and the boat quickly moved because the air escaping the nozzle was pushing against the water , then the boat just stopped because the nozzle was lifted above the water due to the forward motion of the quickly moving boat that lifted the boat and thus lifted the nozzle out of the water , removing the resistive force supplied by the water , the air just escaped the nozzle and had nothing but air to push against.
anyone who has ever ridden in a boat probably knows that if you look at the the back of a quickly moving boat you can see the water is not touching the back of the boat and the mythbusters placed the nozzle on the back of the boat.
mythbusters was a farce and should be recognized as such and should not be relied on as a source of information.
this is a air vs air reaction by mythbusters.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejEJGNLTo84 the above clyinder would have probably reached over 100 mph if it would not have struck the walls.
but it shows how forcefull a air vs water reaction would be.
fishing boats sit in your yard , and could be compressing air using solar power all week long waiting for you to go fishing in your boat that never needs gassing up.
then while your fishing it is also re-compressing the air
in the cylinders.
