Ex-Astronaut Accused of Punching Man
BEVERLY HILLS (Reuters) – A man who publicly confronted astronaut Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin over whether he actually went to the Moon said on Tuesday that the Apollo 11 hero almost sent him into space with a punch to the jaw.
Bart Sibrel, an independent filmmaker from Nashville, Tennessee, said he was trying to conduct an ambush interview with Aldrin outside a hotel in Beverly Hills on Monday when the astronaut punched him and ran away.

Once on an airplane, I sat next to a man who (said he) worked for NASA. I asked him if it was just a hoax, the whole landing on the moon thing and he said, “No, it is true, we did land on the moon.” Of course, if he knew, would he tell a stranger on a plane? The man was very friendly and told me that he had studied plane safety and found that instead of flotation devices, airplanes should be equipped with ejector seats. I told him I would feel safer if they were equipped with parachutes.
/Gosh, I just realized this is not the most considerate topic for today. Sorry if I offended anyone./
