Yes, epic fail. Young Vincent says he is not going to show up again. This is what he wrote me: I left the Apollohoax.garbage forums because everyone there seems to just be very hostile. Bunch of dicks if you ask me. I actually apologized for using the term "propagandist" but they just assault me more. I'm not gonna waste my time with trolls and mental incompetents like them Thank you for your concerns. -Vincent |

He says Young weighed 66lbs and Navy pilot muscles so should have shot off the ground.
Certainly. After all, everyone knows that the F-8 Crusader and F-4 Phantom are powered by the pilot manually flapping the wings with his own arms, and driving the engine turbines by pedaling furiously.
He must have stopped working out by the time I met him in the mid-90s, since while he was obviously in good condition I didn't really notice the Popeye-stoked-on-spinach build.

What a joke. The kid produces a video filled with insults, such as calling his opponents "awesomely stupid," and then he runs home crying to mommy when he gets challenged hard – this after claiming he wanted to hear our counter arguments. What on Earth did he expect to happen? This kid needs to man up and start acting like an adult (his bio says his 21).

Here's a life lesson for you Vincent ... When you speak out on controversial topics, you're going to get challenged and you're going to get challenged hard. It's not personal and it's not mean-spirited. And it's certainly not an insult to challenge your methods and competency as it relates the the topic at hand. It is all part of the process of putting your claims out there to be scrutinized by others. If you come in with guns blazing, you're going to get blow-back, so get use to it. Like the old saying goes, if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.
If you chose not to come back and face your critics, then that's your choice. But if you run back to Youtube and persist in making videos while refusing to answer for them, then that's just cowardly. A man defends what he believes to be true and takes responsibility for his actions when shown to be wrong. He doesn't run away when things start to get difficult. It you want to enter this arena you better man up and be ready to take the heat.

The children go running with their tail between their legs. |

Interesting to note that Vincent actually got quite a polite response here, compared to his words of "Bunch of dicks.. trolls and mental incompetents".
It's also interesting that us mental incompetents pointed out numerous holes in his 'analysis' (term used *very* loosely) and Vincent elected to completely ignore the problems and run for it. Surely he would have gained great respect if he had simply addressed the issues and thereby *proved* the mental incompetence of which he spake.
I've posted a couple of comments to his youtube video. I wonder if they shall remain (took a screen capture..).

I'd like to compliment vincent for the delivery and sound quality of his narrative. Other than that . . .
a big bucket of fail.

Yes, that is Vincent. Or should I say "the young Jarrah"...? |

So does that make Vincent the "great-grandson" of the Apollo Hoax? Jarrah must be worried about the competition from the younger generation.
HBs have gone from first generation to fourth generation in just 40 years (although they are still using the same claims as the first generation).
The HBs are like cell phones or laptops. They are the "latest and greatest" for about two months before something newer comes along and makes them obsolete. And since Jarrah already gives his videos away for free he can't lower his price to remain attractive to the consumer.
Enjoy your obsolescence, Jarrah.
