Do you believe in any of these?

4931

[arista]

Yes James
crazy people

[Niamh.]

None of them really but I suppose the one that I *might* entertain the most of them is probably Trump and him having some sort of dealings at least with the Russians, not sure about him being straight up blackmailed though

I'm not 100% on the moon landing :joker:... And I hadn't heard the Ronaldo one but :think: It sounds plausible? I'd be looking for someone (or a group) who had a lot of money riding on France winning though, rather than France themselves. :hee:

I don’t really believe any of them BUT I think that the moon landing footage might have been faked, like, people are on skype daily on this morning and the quality is ****, but back in 69 we got footage from the moon as clear as that?

[caprimint]

AHHHHHHHHHH

I don't believe any of them

Oh wasn't there something about the Rover disappearing when it should still be visible on the moon as well? Can't say I've really delved into that one too much though

[hijaxers]

What a load of tripe some idiots believe all this unbelievable rubbish.

[GiRTh]

I dont believe any of the listed but here are a couple I believe.

The 2105 San Bernadino shooting was not done by the couple shot and killed at the scene

Game six of the 2002 NBA Western Conference finals between the LA Lakers and the Sacramento Kings was fixed.

i'm inclined to believe that the Russians aided/paid Trump. Trump just isn't the type to be blackmailed as he doesn't give a ****

The moon landing one is plausible, and there was such competition between Russia and America at the time it wouldn't surprise me

[Amy Jade]

Of this list I believe the moon landing was faked, I think America were desperate to be the first and just set it up. I kinda believe a 'monster' was in Loch Ness too but I think it could just be a larger or mutated water dwelling animal rather than a monster.

Another conspiracy theory I believe is Area 51 has proof of aliens. I also believe they run experiments there.
