@@roquefortfiles - He agreed to an interview with a guy who knew nothing about flying, nothing about being a pilot, nothing about aviation or risk / reward decision making in aviation. Neal was very smart. Probably a 140-150 IQ. That is why he picked this guy to give the interview to. Every pilot in the world would have jumped at the chance to interview Neal. Neal did not want that. He had a message to send to the world, and needed a non aviation guy as the conduit. I consider this interview a confession, based on what he said. Dr. Werhner von Braun was more blatant. Neal was far more subtle. He camouflaged it well to the non pilot world. He died soon after this.
I was a 13-year-old in Korea when Apollo 11 landed on the moon. I wanted to immigrate to the U.S. and join the Airforce academy to pursue my goal of becoming an astronaut. My dream didn't work, but I enjoy all these beautiful interviews and documentaries that any emperor or king cannot imagine in old age. I am blessed to be born in this time of the human era.

And this was just a year before Mr Armstrong passed away. What a privilege to have a chat with the great man whose name will be spoken for thousands of years.
@@coryleblanc I worked for some years with a ground station engineer whose station was one of the network used on Apollo 14-17. He was my mentor for years and everything he said I listened to. There is no doubt that the A14-A17 astronauts were on the lunar surface; listening to live voice data coming straight off the antenna, does not lie. Or perhaps you think my friend did? Or I am as well?
What a great interview!!. I was born in April 1957, and was allowed to stay up all night here in the uk(Birmingham), to watch the moon landing live on my parents tv. Very exciting, we could hardly believe what we were seeing, hoping that all would be well and thrilled when all three astronauts made it safely home to earth, still to this day an emotionally charged memory. The thing that this film finally made clear to me was, as I have always wondered how Neil managed to fly the eagle down to the surface, hopping over that large crater, (when the picture we had was so fuzzy from the camera they had looking out the window), the view he had was so much better as the film shows. Even so to make it down with so little fuel and time to spare, showed that Neil and Buzz Aldrin were indeed, both made of the 'right stuff !!. They will never be forgotten, thank you, what courage, and what great pioneers.
A great interview but Neil Armstrong was furious that this was released because it wasn't supposed to be released. The man that gave the interview gave him his word that it would not be put on the internet or any other public forum
Heck of an interview. So glad these interviews are captured so future generations don’t forget heroes like Neil and everyone who part of the space race 👍🏻
For all to take into consideration: The first airplane didn't fly. The first ship didn't float. The first car didn't work........etc etc Yet we are supposed to believe that the first voyage to the moon: Successfully left the earths orbit on the first try. Penetrated the Van Allen radiation belts on the first try. Orbited the moon on the first try. Successfully launched a lunar lander, and landed on the moon on the first try. Successfully re-launched the lunar lander off of the moon......., on the first try. Linked the two crafts, in lunar orbit, on the first try. Made a successful return voyage from the moon........ on the first try. Landed safely back on earth.......... on the first try. That's a lot of firsts!!! The first of ANYTHING never works. But I don't know.
I didn't plan to spend 49 minutes on TH-cam. But this interview was just unbelievably interesting! Special congratulations to the interviewer. He knows so much about Armstrong and admires him so much. It must have been quite an honor to have interviewed him so well just months before Armstrong died.
49 Minutes?!? You mean all this time I could have watched the American Hero Megan Thee Stallion and instead I watch this rocketman? How stupid of me! I am living! Repent before is too late!🤣
You can do double mba but listening to such a intelligent, kind and humble person is the limelight. I have the opportunity to posses the original 1969 nasa photos of Neil and Buzz. With stamp of 16 July launch day and original signatures ( they did three versions : a stamp, robotic arm and the real one). Neil definitely is in my top ten. Caesar of course takes the first spot. Top guy Neil at 15 he constructed a wind tunnel in his parents basement. Top guy. Allways cool. Escapes three times death. But he did it ! First man.
Oh you forgot delusional, liar ...God knows your lies and one day he will have to stand before God in shame and admit his lies how embarrassing.... if only someone could video tape it the look on his face would be priceless lol ten billion views on TH-cam
It's so nice to watch an interviewer that's happy to let the interviewee talk. Without feeling the need to jump in to prove how smart they are, or show how much they know.
@@Rickswars It sure seems that way. Nobody wants to bother acknowledging them. They all immediately resort to insults. Some of these comments are just pathetic.
A most honorable man. One of the finest pilots of all time, proven *through trial, and as the next two comments state, a Hero and a class act. A huge, enormous LIKE! Thank you, Alex Malley, for producing this most personal interview. This is a person I miss.
I have always felt that Neil Armstrong was one of the most modest men on this planet and this interview paints that picture perfectly. Such greatness with so many milestones and achievements in his life & where death lurked around so many corners and yet never a line was shot. Neil Armstrong,the first man on the moon. I think only he and perhaps no other could brush over that fact like it wasn't important. Respect to those who go where angels fear to tread.
Such a shame Neil passed away so soon after this was filmed. I feel Neil had so much more to offer seeing that in his later life he was just starting to feel more comfortable speaking about his historical past. A true gentleman and no better man could have been chosen to take that historical first step. I was born in 1965, but i wish i had been born 10 years earlier so that i would now have much clearer memories of those glory days.
@Stephen Docherty You are the gullible bastard that wants to be part of the "elite" group that knows the secret. The secret is you all are simply weak minded dumb asses that are easily fooled with some asinine statements that are based on absolutely nothing but utter bull shit. Go get a life and maybe an education.
@Stephen Docherty Now I'm beginning to understand deniers since they have never accomplished much in their lives they can't accept others . I feel sorry for you having such low-self-esteem.
In 1994, Neil Armstrong sent me a photo of himself with an inscription in response to my letter to him. I wrote that I was very interested in the Apollo program and that I had articles from Soviet newspapers of that time about all the flights of the Apollo ships and Apollo 11 in particular. I was always struck by the disbelief of some people in flights to the Moon and especially residents of the United States. A wonderful interview, unfortunately one of the last. Sincerely from Saint-Petersburg, Russia.
@@billyryalls7851 You have accurately identified such comments as ignorance. Even the information of the Soviet press of that great time, which can be viewed on my channel, cannot convince such ignorant people. By the way, there are such in Russia. With respect to you.
I was suffering on my parents couch with tonsillitis and my dad came in and woke me up, told me to watch the TV and to remember watching it. You couldn't see the image well but it was Neil Armstrong and the first step on the moon. This man this very humble man did what no man before him had done. He was such a humble and honest man who could keep his life fairly unencumbered. He was and is one of the people I looked up to then and still do today. I miss having this man still alive he had so much knowledge to give back to us, hopefully he had a chance in those years since to give that knowledge back. God bless you Neil, I can only hope he would approve of what we are doing at NASA now. Hope I live long enough to see man on Mars. The moon first then Mars. Keep looking to the stars all.
Thank you for this . So sad he didn't get to celebrate its 50th anniversary along side with Buzz and Michael. What an incredible achievement that I have never forgotten.
The most enjoyable and delightful interview I’ve ever watched with Neil Armstrong. Alex Malley set pleasant atmosphere and held a relaxed and humble demeanor with Neil... such a wonderful change from most other interviewers. Neil Armstrong held the position for me as the one person I put at the very top of a list of those I want to meet before I depart. Thank you Alex for a great interview.
Tralee in Ireland were marking an anniversary of the moon landings, and the town council wanted to mark the occasion in some way. Someone suggested "Why dont we ask Neil Armstrong to come?". Everyone laughed, understandably. But someone sent the request for him to open the local museum. And he actually came.
Did he explain how the BIG BATTERIES kept them cool in +260F heat and kept them warm in -260 F cold on the moon? Or did he talk about bonding with his pals.
Excellent interview. Neil was a first class pilot, engineer, and, it turns out, a first class human being too. Rare to see such a combination in pilots.
Neil Armstrong had the right stuff to handle any situation surrounding this epic mission. All the Apollo astronauts were highly fit and ready, but Buzz and Neil were the first to land on the moon. These two have always shown remarkable ability and coolness. This interview is the best one ever of Neil.
Just watched this. Wow!. He is my all time hero. Sadly missed. We could all do with his wisdom just now. He oozes humility and compassion as a human being. A very, very special man indeed.
Lately I'm so fascinated by this milestone event. What an amazing accomplishment. Hearing Neil Armstrong speak and explain all those details is truly inspirational. What a Gentleman he was. A true hero he was, as well as the team and all those that came before him that allowed this mission to be possible.
I sat with him at Lunch at the Aerospace Medicine Conference in Atlanta in 2012. Amazingly when we sat down he rose up and walked around the table to introduce himself. I am rarely at a loss for words but that was one of them. I weakly said I don't think you need to introduce yourself (with a smile on my face). He stayed around for pictures with everyone. He had a lovely moment with Chuck Berry, MD who was the Flight Surgeon for Apollo 13 and is depicted in the movie. After that luncheon meeting and sitting with him if I had died that day I would have gone to my grave a contented man. All of us who worked with Space Shuttle operations were crushed at his unexpected death after surgery.
funny that story because neil himself was once lost for words when he was asked to swear by almighty god on the bible that he had set foot on the moon !!! wonder why ?
@@thundercuntinashoefullofpiss He was at a loss because he knew that the god-myth is the real hoax but didn't know how to express that to idiots that think putting your hand on a book of myths trumps science.
This man is the coolest guy that's ever lived. Collected and down to earth, a humble genius who understood profoundly the poetry and beauty of his epic achievement. A true legend and an extraordinary man. The humankind owns him so much.
The BEST Armstrong interview I have ever watched. Reminds me so much of my grandpa. The, “I was just doing my job” generation when I was actually saving the world. So hesitant to talk about themselves. And just like my grandpa, opening up more & more later in life. If was still around today, I’m sure we’d know many more stories. It shows you everything about the character of the astronauts, that they took something to represent the killed Russian astronauts up to leave on the moon as well. They respected them as colleagues.
Here are the EXACT words of NASA Engineer Kelly Smith, talking about the manned spacecraft Orion, that is set to launch in the next few years . " As we get further away from earth, ( traveling at 17,000 mph), we will pass through the Van Allen Belts, an area of dangerous radiation, radiation like this can harm the guidance systems , onboard computers, or other electronics on Orion. Naturally, we have to pass through this dangerous zone twice, once up and once back. But Orion has protection, shielding will be put to the test, as the vehicle cuts through the waves of radiation, sensors aboard will record radiation levels for scientists to study. We must solve these CHALLENGES , BEFORE we send people through this region of space. " There is your proof the Apollo moon landing missions are how do you say - FAKE NEWS.
@@maxsmith695 Literally no proof at all. That’s the problem with these conspiracy wackos. They take a few things, blow them out of proportion, and it allows them to pretend the whole thing never happened. Rather than looking at the mountains of evidence that exist, they go out of their way to make these wacko assertions. Could it remotely be that they are testing a new spacecraft, with new equipment, and new mission parameters? It’s a different NASA now, they are not allowed for political and societal reasons to be as bold as they were when this was first done in the late 60s, so there’s a lot more involved now with ramping up to these missions. And since they haven’t done this in 50 years, they want to make sure they get it right before putting billions of dollars and human lives at risk. Too logical for your kind.
@@maxsmith695 it’s a complex band aid. I don’t think it had anything to do with radiation, as much as losing people to problems and deaths with the program, like Korolev. And did you mean old or older, speaking of edits?
@@maxsmith695 hey retard, you do know that the appollo spacecraft went through the belt at incredible speed, right? that means they weren't in the belt for more than 15 minutes. sure, if you spend loads of time in the belt, you would most certainly feel the effects both on you and your craft, but not for such a short amount of time. but keep spouting your bullshit theories.
@@TheJTD1982 Well I am glad you are satisfied. Me I am just glad he didn't take his whole story to the grave. But I have no doubt we never got a huge number of details. Those stories were meant to be told to the people who paid for his joyride.
@@ynkybomber - Every pilot in the world would have loved to have done this. Neal picked a non pilot. He was a very smart man. Why pick a non pilot ? Those folks do not understand the lingo or issues of flying. True. But if you have to ask, you clearly do not understand what you are listening to. This narrative is as close to a confession as this genius could cobble together. I think he makes the point in a subtle manner and with the thinest level of transparency to the acute listener.

as a kid of the sixties , i was fascinated with the space program in general and of course the Apollo missions to the moon were the icing on the cake. Neil certainly was a personal hero of mine and he and the entire program inspired me into a career in aviation. i never achieved the lofty goal to become an astronaut, but i did retire in 2016 after 40 years as an airline pilot, having flown for such airlines as Eastern and PanAm. I retired from Southwest. Neil and his compatriots and the entire space program were decisive for me in choosing the career that i did. I always will be thankful for the example these fine men set to a young man like myself in those days.
oh, yeah. i get all kinds of inspiration from Apollo and the others. a lot of people do. it turns out that's one of the most wonderful side-effects of the space race-generations inspired to become pilots, engineers, physicists, etc.
A truly fine yet humble man. We see and applaud the so called 'celebrities' of today who are famouse for being famous and nothing else. Here we have a true hero of the modern age. I feel truly priviledged to have witnessed the whole thing as a young boy and my adimration for those men has never diminished over the years.
ic08jy700 This comment exactly expresses my feelings. I was 23 when Apollo 11 landed on the moon and my admiration for the astronauts (and all the others involved) has never deminished. This is the most important milestone in human history up to now and I'm proud to have witnessed it.

He doesn't seem to have a millimetre of ego, as many would expect from a person who has done something so monumental. Instead, he is so accessible and so humble. Amazing man.
@@josedacunhafilho Please don't encourage them. The irony is this person probably has no issue in believing the Nazis relocated to the moon following World War 2. I can promise you this person also believes that the Kennedy assassination was a cover-up, that 9/11 was an inside job and Elvis isn't really dead. Oh, and I imagine this person is also staunchly anti-vaccination...
I remember it well... about 15 minutes after they touched down, I went outside the house to see or hear if there was any neighborhood activity... ABSOLUTELY dead quiet, not a person or car to be seen. Very transformative moment in America's history. Neil Armstrong: A class act that many could do well to attempt to emulate!
Was coming back from the beach just north of Boston. We were listening on the radio. Every single car on a major Boston highway pulled over and just listened to the radio.
@@Patsy_Parisi Awesome man. Even watching the 50th-anniversary film sent a chill down my spine when he says those words. I can't imagine what it must have been like at the time. Especially with the soundtrack back then!
What an absolutely first rate interview by Alex Malley. He got every detail, tone and register from historical to emotional right on the mark with one of the most admirable, humble and accomplished persons in history. An outstanding job.
A wonderful interview from a wonderful human being. I felt that the interviewer was very keen and respectfully cautious with his questions to Mr Armstrong. The ending was a real treat. Such a gracious smile of appreciation from Neil. You could tell that he had a pleasant time. I tip my cap to the interview - and Godspeed Neil Armstrong.
@Bevvie Bevvie Will you dumb fucks just shut the hell up? There are countless measures of evidence recorded. There are PHOTOS of the mans footsteps on the moon. Good grief
I was on a ten mile jog when my iphone told me that Armstrong had just died. I immediately stopped my run, sat down on that lonely road and cried my eyes out. He was my hero.
Wonderful interview. Mr. Armstrong is the epitome of what it meant to be "American" and what leadership and courage look like. God's speed Neil. God's speed.
What a fantastic interview, conducted with such respect and integrity. It resulted in the most detailed and thorough account I have ever heard from the man himself.
Jet 82 The interviewer did do his respectful best to present this interviewee’s assertions regarding a fantastical voyage to a yet unproven landing on a celestial body untouched by earthbound actors.
briandenley Mr. Armstrong most assuredly qualifies as a jerk. Hell, his his-tory has you calling someone a slanderous name. Someone you’ve never seen, and what’s more has never lied to you. Armstrong yanked your chain and jacked-up your god-given reasoning ability for decades.... and Terry Winter is where your frustrations are vented? Get a hold of yourself, Mr. Denley.... your travels to know truth are awaiting your inquiry.
Toberr Drawforc you are technologically challenged. Not out fault. You cannot present a single item that cannot easily be refuted with facts. Again, not our fault. On what basis can you attack a brave man with many achievements? What have you ever accomplished?
briandenley Mr. Denley, I lay no blame at you or whomever “our” may be. I can slander this man’s existence due to his choosing a life of proven deception. As to whether I have irrefutable facts for you, the answer benefits no man other than myself. You are responsible for proving the the things you wish to know. You are entitled to believe anything you like. You are not perpetuating innumerable falsehoods to the masses. Cheers.
This was one of best videos I've ever seen on Neil Armstrong!!! One for the ages!!! He was a classic!!! I wish I had met him... But now I have....Thank you for your service to this country!!! THE FUTURE BELONGS TO THE BRAVE!!!🇺🇸
This video is so well done with the interview and it actually ended up very sadly his last which makes this history that will outlive us for all of future.. I cannot imagine how many emotions were with you that day and then now! This really made me very emotional and very overwhelming that I am actually blessed to have been alive with this humble wonderful human being was alive! I am a Paramedic and a Former Fire Chief, and deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan during the war years and feel that I still need to reach for every single second of every day I am alive to live up to the blessing I have received! I have and continue to see the most extreme levels of disgusting human actions towards others, our home and life in general to the most extreme best humans can do for eachother, our earthly home and life in general! If I can just save one life, I may have saved an entire future nation or people in a thousand years and more by my actions right this moment! This is someone I look up too and try to stay humble as he has in my life and work!
That man is everything we should strive for.. Amazing fella. God rest you Neil. For a fleeting moment you made us on people through your heart and achievements
Neil is a true hero for the human race. His achievements, his skill, courage, and humbleness in the face of such a profound life is legendary. I hope future generations keep recognizing and taking inspiration from this extraordinary man for millennia to come. Godspeed! ✊🏼
He was the first man on the moon, not a small thing is it, I mean..he done so much more that virtually anybody has done ever! Yet he’s so humble, polite and well spoken. What a man. May he rest in peace.
I totally agree with you, buddy, as Neil Armstrong was an eminent figure of the last 50 o/a 60 yrs with a lot of guts and determination to whatever he had been into. I certainly think that Neil , took his righteous place among the stars, where he belonged at the very first place...

A true hero of my youth. I was 9 when my parents got me out of bed to witness history. It is something I will never forget to my dying day. RIP, Mr. Armstrong.
Clarity of thought continued with Armstrong well into his later years! What terrific blow-by-blow and coherent answers to these questions! He really comes across as a "problem solver."
He seemed to have been a lovely person, very humble. Rest in peace Neil Armstrong. If only he had seen things are picking up again with NASA and spaceX

That interview was great! Thank you very much for posting it here. I was 9 years old when they landed on the moon and I was riveted to the TV set . I was sitting on the floor on the carpet close to the screen so I would not miss anything. Neil Armstrong is such a Legend and by being seen so rarely, it makes the Legend even larger than life. Such a humble man. Thanks again.
Great interview. Listening to Neil narrate his landing over those simultaneous video clips, taken decades apart and showing the same lunar crater features, was surreal and unbelievably fascinating. Thanks SO much for including those moments as a part of this interview. Just tremendous!
Dearest Slaribartfast -- Although I recognize the lateness of my reply, I offer my appreciation of your making available to the public your conversation with the honorable Mr. Armstrong. His heroism has provided to me and to my regiment inspiration as we continue our battle with the pesky confederates. -- Andrew.
It was pure luck that I found this interview on the internet in August 2012 and downloaded it. It was taken down some time later from where I found it, and I forgot about it. Years later I found it again on my harddrive, and after realizing it was nowhere on TH-cam or any other place in the web, I decided to publish it. I never thought it would get as many views as it did.
38 years old when he commanded the Apollo 11 mission and walked on the moon. He ejected from a Lunar Excursion Module simulator roughly two seconds before it crashed, nearly parachuted into flames from the crash of LEM simulator, went back to his office and returned to work. I've read a dozen books about Neil Armstrong... and in each one it becomes even more clear what a remarkably cool, calm, level-headed and unflappable man he was. Extraordinary guy and of a kind we won't see again for a long, long time.
@J Calhoun A robot can also put a reflector on the moon.... there are people getting healed in the name of Jesus, but noone believes it although hundreds of thousands testimony, yet all believe in science, just because of the label "science". Maybe they landed on the moon, maybe not. I'm not sure, I don't trust that easily anymore.
@@Spiritcrown No you moron, they accept it because of evidence. Something your book of fairy tales lacks and something your charlatan faith healers also lack.
@Terry Winter Why? because he gave you answers that don't support your little narrative? Exactly what was bullshit about his answers? From what I can see, absolutely nothing. The fact that you lack the education or intellect to understand the implications of his comments doesn't invalidate them. But true to form, like all flat earthers, conspiracy theorists and religious nut jobs you resort to name calling when frustrated. You're the only pathetic one here. Before you start crying that he started it, let me remind you that you called an international icon, "a lying asshole" with absolutely no evidence apart from your conspiracy theory.
Fantastic interview with one of my childhood hero's. Neil Armstrong has left us all a huge legacy not only with what he and his comrades achieved but with how he lived his life.
Such an amazing interview. Neil Armstrong was one of the most wonderful examples of our species. He epitomised everything that was great about the human race.
He's been such an inspiration to the people of earth. The amazing realisation of what people CAN DO, if they have the confidence & courage to try it, is astonishing to me. Apollo was right on the ragged edge of possibility & engineering. That's probably why it's taking so long to find that courage again. But some humans can do it, they really can. This human proved it. The amazing Neil Armstrong.
I think about people who are Godsent to the world we live in. Neil Armstrong is without question, One of those people. The bravery involved sitting on top of the Saturn V Rocket when launched is almost as magnificent as the actual landing! Thank you Mr Armstrong. Don't forget the thousands of others that made it all possible.
Unbelievable that people can deny this ever happened. The greatest engineering feat in human history and something that should make you proud not only to be American but a human being. One of the things we lost from Nasa budget cuts was curiosity and wonder of the public. We need to continue this discovery and keep reaching further.
The sad thing is it's mainly Americans that believe it was fake. The rest of the world isn't that dumb. There's a reason the entire world believe knows how stupid Americans are and saying the moon landings never happened is an example. But don't worry about the rest of the world. We're fully aware this happened.
@@Anyonewhos i'm not sure what led you to believe that mainly Americans are deniers. i know it's not a representative sample, but in these You Tube comments, there are a whole lot of folks who apparently write English as a second language.

@@nigelwilliams9307 So you think we are capable of making a suspension bridge, nuclear missiles, sky scrapers, F22 Raptors, Floating cities called aircraft carriers. 100s of thousands of plane flights a day.

You accepted something that was fed to you and only showing specific things that confirm your beliefs. All of this is easily debunked and explained. It was seen by hundreds of thousands of people from multiple states, tracked by radios all over the world and I have been a part of bouncing lasers off the reflectors that were placed there. Tin foil? You think that was the structure? Have you looked why that was there or what is does? The lunar lander was a strong amazing design. You can see the building of it and the engineering blueprints. It seems you just saw what you wanted to see and turned off any skepticism or critical thinking. I understand I fell for that BS too. It feels good thinking you know more or are not being a sheep. It's just not the case my friend.

And almost everything since is recording of the broadcast just described. Pictures you see aren’t originals. They’re copies of copies. Because the originals were lost. Also not disputed by NASA. Tragic how possibly mankind’s greatest achievement has no original footage left. Which you can look up on NASA and other government websites.

Neil Armstrong was a gentleman in every possible way. Took everything he ever did with humility and little fanfare. I wish there were more like him today.
Probably humankind’s greatest technological achievement. You have to applaud the brilliance of NASA and the supporting folk in MIT and other institutions. An amazing interview for such an icon and hero. I feel privileged to be able to watch this. Thank you!
Sadly everyone will remember Neil Armstrong as the first man on the moon while buzz Aldrin landed at the same time as him. And to top all that Michael Collins didn't even get to go on the moon!!
@@forgeskygaming3355 I agree with the sentiment to an extent. I think most people know Buzz Aldrin but few can name Michael Collins. But it must have taken some brass balls to step out first. Wasn't it like 20 minutes before Buzz joined him?

Read the comments. U can tell they were lying.
I think that is the key with Neil. Approach the interview with respect.
@@roquefortfiles - He agreed to an interview with a guy who knew nothing about flying, nothing about being a pilot, nothing about aviation or risk / reward decision making in aviation.
Neal was very smart. Probably a 140-150 IQ.
That is why he picked this guy to give the interview to.
Every pilot in the world would have jumped at the chance to interview Neal.
Neal did not want that.
He had a message to send to the world, and needed a non aviation guy as the conduit.
I consider this interview a confession, based on what he said. Dr. Werhner von Braun was more blatant. Neal was far more subtle.
He camouflaged it well to the non pilot world. He died soon after this.
@@maxsmith695 ??? Camouflaged what??? I have no idea what you're talking about.

What a great interview!!. I was born in April 1957, and was allowed to stay up all night here in the uk(Birmingham), to watch the moon landing live on my parents tv. Very exciting, we could hardly believe what we were seeing, hoping that all would be well and thrilled when all three astronauts made it safely home to earth, still to this day an emotionally charged memory. The thing that this film finally made clear to me was, as I have always wondered how Neil managed to fly the eagle down to the surface, hopping over that large crater, (when the picture we had was so fuzzy from the camera they had looking out the window), the view he had was so much better as the film shows. Even so to make it down with so little fuel and time to spare, showed that Neil and Buzz Aldrin were indeed, both made of the 'right stuff !!. They will never be forgotten, thank you, what courage, and what great pioneers.
Not many believed it no 😂
Class of '56 London, snap 😆 🤣
A great interview but Neil Armstrong was furious that this was released because it wasn't supposed to be released. The man that gave the interview gave him his word that it would not be put on the internet or any other public forum
What an honour it must of been to shake the hand of a great and humble man, our leaders could learn a lot from his generation
Heck of an interview. So glad these interviews are captured so future generations don’t forget heroes like Neil and everyone who part of the space race 👍🏻
Neil was very angry that this interview was released
For all to take into consideration:
The first airplane didn't fly.
The first ship didn't float.
The first car didn't work........etc etc
Yet we are supposed to believe that the first voyage to the moon:
Successfully left the earths orbit on the first try.
Penetrated the Van Allen radiation belts on the first try.
Orbited the moon on the first try.
Successfully launched a lunar lander, and landed on the moon on the first try.
Successfully re-launched the lunar lander off of the moon......., on the first try.
Linked the two crafts, in lunar orbit, on the first try.
Made a successful return voyage from the moon........ on the first try.
Landed safely back on earth.......... on the first try.

A huge, enormous LIKE! Thank you, Alex Malley, for producing this most personal interview. This is a person I miss.
I have always felt that Neil Armstrong was one of the most modest men on this planet and this interview paints that picture perfectly.
Such greatness with so many milestones and achievements in his life & where death lurked around so many corners and yet never a line was shot.
Neil Armstrong,the first man on the moon.
I think only he and perhaps no other could brush over that fact like it wasn't important.
Respect to those who go where angels fear to tread.
Such a shame Neil passed away so soon after this was filmed. I feel Neil had so much more to offer seeing that in his later life he was just starting to feel more comfortable speaking about his historical past. A true gentleman and no better man could have been chosen to take that historical first step. I was born in 1965, but i wish i had been born 10 years earlier so that i would now have much clearer memories of those glory days.
I too wish I had been born early enough to have followed the earliest years of the space program (both and manned and un-manned).
I was born in 57 so from about 66 have good memories of the lead up flights, the effort, the drama, and the incredible quality of the people involved.

In 1994, Neil Armstrong sent me a photo of himself with an inscription in response to my letter to him. I wrote that I was very interested in the Apollo program and that I had articles from Soviet newspapers of that time about all the flights of the Apollo ships and Apollo 11 in particular. I was always struck by the disbelief of some people in flights to the Moon and especially residents of the United States. A wonderful interview, unfortunately one of the last.

You couldn't see the image well but it was Neil Armstrong and the first step on the moon. This man this very humble man did what no man before him had done. He was such a humble and honest man who could keep his life fairly unencumbered. He was and is one of the people I looked up to then and still do today. I miss having this man still alive he had so much knowledge to give back to us, hopefully he had a chance in those years since to give that knowledge back. God bless you Neil, I can only hope he would approve of what we are doing at NASA now. Hope I live long enough to see man on Mars. The moon first then Mars. Keep looking to the stars all.
Classy Man and American Icon

I sat with him at Lunch at the Aerospace Medicine Conference in Atlanta in 2012. Amazingly when we sat down he rose up and walked around the table to introduce himself. I am rarely at a loss for words but that was one of them. I weakly said I don't think you need to introduce yourself (with a smile on my face). He stayed around for pictures with everyone. He had a lovely moment with Chuck Berry, MD who was the Flight Surgeon for Apollo 13 and is depicted in the movie. After that luncheon meeting and sitting with him if I had died that day I would have gone to my grave a contented man. All of us who worked with Space Shuttle operations were crushed at his unexpected death after surgery.

So hesitant to talk about themselves. And just like my grandpa, opening up more & more later in life. If was still around today, I’m sure we’d know many more stories.
It shows you everything about the character of the astronauts, that they took something to represent the killed Russian astronauts up to leave on the moon as well. They respected them as colleagues.

The only interview you have ever seen with him...
Here are the EXACT words of NASA Engineer Kelly Smith, talking about the manned spacecraft Orion, that is set to launch in the next few years . " As we get further away from earth, ( traveling at 17,000 mph), we will pass through the Van Allen Belts, an area of dangerous radiation, radiation like this can harm the guidance systems , onboard computers, or other electronics on Orion. Naturally, we have to pass through this dangerous zone twice, once up and once back. But Orion has protection, shielding will be put to the test, as the vehicle cuts through the waves of radiation, sensors aboard will record radiation levels for scientists to study. We must solve these CHALLENGES , BEFORE we send people through this region of space. "
There is your proof the Apollo moon landing missions are how do you say - FAKE NEWS.
@@maxsmith695 Literally no proof at all. That’s the problem with these conspiracy wackos. They take a few things, blow them out of proportion, and it allows them to pretend the whole thing never happened. Rather than looking at the mountains of evidence that exist, they go out of their way to make these wacko assertions. Could it remotely be that they are testing a new spacecraft, with new equipment, and new mission parameters? It’s a different NASA now, they are not allowed for political and societal reasons to be as bold as they were when this was first done in the late 60s, so there’s a lot more involved now with ramping up to these missions. And since they haven’t done this in 50 years, they want to make sure they get it right before putting billions of dollars and human lives at risk. Too logical for your kind.

as a kid of the sixties , i was fascinated with the space program in general and of course the Apollo missions to the moon were the icing on the cake.

I retired from Southwest. Neil and his compatriots and the entire space program were decisive for me in choosing the career that i did. I always will be thankful for the example these fine men set to a young man like myself in those days.

Neil is a true hero for the human race. His achievements, his skill, courage, and humbleness in the face of such a profound life is legendary. I hope future generations keep recognizing and taking inspiration from this extraordinary man for millennia to come. Godspeed! ✊🏼
He was the first man on the moon, not a small thing is it, I mean..he done so much more that virtually anybody has done ever! Yet he’s so humble, polite and well spoken. What a man.
May he rest in peace.
I totally agree with you, buddy, as Neil Armstrong was an eminent figure of the last 50 o/a 60 yrs with a lot of guts and determination to whatever he had been into. I certainly think that Neil , took his righteous place among the stars, where he belonged at the very first place...
@Stephen Docherty Hahaha. Look everybody, the famous internet troll has visited us yet again. SO nice.
@@Fastbikkel lol ur funny, look up buzz aldrin admitting to a girl they never went to the moon
@@DiceDecides Oh boy. If he indeed admit that, for some weird reason, he can be proven wrong.
I wish you all the best in life, i really do.

😮Wow!! Thank you for
sharing this. Fascinating to hear Neil Armstrongs commentary while viewing the footage. I became filled with emotions.❤
Outstanding Interview by an Outstanding Reporter! And Mr. Amstrong humbleness and Humilliaty shows all of us...that being Humble is the way to be!!!! God Bless....
A true hero of my youth. I was 9 when my parents got me out of bed to witness history. It is something I will never forget to my dying day. RIP, Mr. Armstrong.
Totally agree with you Preacher, they just don't make legends of that character anymore.
Something the world will sorely miss.
He was an actor a fake, the moon landing is utter nonsense.

An excellent interview. Journalists need to take some lessons from the interviewer. Knowledgeable, engaged. Top notch.
The world needs more men like Neil Armstrong… what a outstanding man!
Clarity of thought continued with Armstrong well into his later years! What terrific blow-by-blow and coherent answers to these questions! He really comes across as a "problem solver."
He seemed to have been a lovely person, very humble. Rest in peace Neil Armstrong.
If only he had seen things are picking up again with NASA and spaceX

Amazing interview. Thanks for all you have done for us Neil and may rest in peace like you came in peace.
What an amazing, soft spoken and humble man. Love you, Neil! Thank you for years of inspiration. Rest In Peace.
That interview was great! Thank you very much for posting it here. I was 9 years old when they landed on the moon and I was riveted to the TV set . I was sitting on the floor on the carpet close to the screen so I would not miss anything. Neil Armstrong is such a Legend and by being seen so rarely, it makes the Legend even larger than life. Such a humble man. Thanks again.
Sat on the floor watching black and white screen? ME TOO!
Is big foot real? Saw him on the TV also.
I'm so thankful to have found this interview. He's so humble that its hard to know him. He's such a nice guy.
@alpha beta OK, if you say so.
Thank you for posting this. It is great to see my childhood hero talk about his life and not just apollo.
Great interview. Listening to Neil narrate his landing over those simultaneous video clips, taken decades apart and showing the same lunar crater features, was surreal and unbelievably fascinating. Thanks SO much for including those moments as a part of this interview. Just tremendous!
As an American, thank you for taking care of our American Treasure while he was visiting your great nation!
Great Interview and an Ever Greater Man...Courageous, Humble and Genuine...Not enough of that around today :)
Dearest Slaribartfast -- Although I recognize the lateness of my reply, I offer my appreciation of your making available to the public your conversation with the honorable Mr. Armstrong. His heroism has provided to me and to my regiment inspiration as we continue our battle with the pesky confederates. -- Andrew.

Funny!!!! 👍
It was pure luck that I found this interview on the internet in August 2012 and downloaded it. It was taken down some time later from where I found it, and I forgot about it. Years later I found it again on my harddrive, and after realizing it was nowhere on TH-cam or any other place in the web, I decided to publish it. I never thought it would get as many views as it did.
38 years old when he commanded the Apollo 11 mission and walked on the moon. He ejected from a Lunar Excursion Module simulator roughly two seconds before it crashed, nearly parachuted into flames from the crash of LEM simulator, went back to his office and returned to work. I've read a dozen books about Neil Armstrong... and in each one it becomes even more clear what a remarkably cool, calm, level-headed and unflappable man he was. Extraordinary guy and of a kind we won't see again for a long, long time.
Exactly right !
I had the chance to meet and shake Neil’s hand once following a USO tour he was on. A very profound moment in my life I will never forget.
Falcon View Imagery I envy you. What a privilege you’ve had!
@J Calhoun A robot can also put a reflector on the moon.... there are people getting healed in the name of Jesus, but noone believes it although hundreds of thousands testimony, yet all believe in science, just because of the label "science". Maybe they landed on the moon, maybe not. I'm not sure, I don't trust that easily anymore.
@@Spiritcrown No you moron, they accept it because of evidence. Something your book of fairy tales lacks and something your charlatan faith healers also lack.
@Terry Winter Why? because he gave you answers that don't support your little narrative? Exactly what was bullshit about his answers? From what I can see, absolutely nothing. The fact that you lack the education or intellect to understand the implications of his comments doesn't invalidate them. But true to form, like all flat earthers, conspiracy theorists and religious nut jobs you resort to name calling when frustrated. You're the only pathetic one here. Before you start crying that he started it, let me remind you that you called an international icon, "a lying asshole" with absolutely no evidence apart from your conspiracy theory.
Neil Armstrong, a great achiever yet so humble and unassuming. Excellent interview of the great man.
Wow that was a amazing interview with the man I equal with my own Father. Neil Armstrong you were and still are my Hero
Great interview of a great man, carried out by an interviewer who demonstrated sensitivity and respectfulness throughout.
Fantastic interview with one of my childhood hero's. Neil Armstrong has left us all a huge legacy not only with what he and his comrades achieved but with how he lived his life.
Such an amazing interview. Neil Armstrong was one of the most wonderful examples of our species. He epitomised everything that was great about the human race.
Excellent! Has been a man I have admired my entire life, always wanted to meet him. I thoroughly enjoyed the interview!
He's been such an inspiration to the people of earth. The amazing realisation of what people CAN DO, if they have the confidence & courage to try it, is astonishing to me.
Apollo was right on the ragged edge of possibility & engineering. That's probably why it's taking so long to find that courage again. But some humans can do it, they really can. This human proved it. The amazing Neil Armstrong.
I think about people who are Godsent to the world we live in. Neil Armstrong is without question, One of those people. The bravery involved sitting on top of the Saturn V Rocket when launched is almost as magnificent as the actual landing! Thank you Mr Armstrong. Don't forget the thousands of others that made it all possible.
This is a treasure trove interview! It should be mandatory viewing in Jr. High Science classes!
Rodger Lee science is based of facts and since no ones ever stepped foot on the moon then that wouldn’t be a fact now would it?

Unbelievable that people can deny this ever happened. The greatest engineering feat in human history and something that should make you proud not only to be American but a human being. One of the things we lost from Nasa budget cuts was curiosity and wonder of the public. We need to continue this discovery and keep reaching further.
The sad thing is it's mainly Americans that believe it was fake. The rest of the world isn't that dumb. There's a reason the entire world believe knows how stupid Americans are and saying the moon landings never happened is an example. But don't worry about the rest of the world. We're fully aware this happened.

Hardly the greatest feat of engineering. I'd put the Golden Gate bridge and the WTC far higher than a silly spacecraft made of tin foil that never left the film set.
@@nigelwilliams9307 So you think we are capable of making a suspension bridge, nuclear missiles, sky scrapers, F22 Raptors, Floating cities called aircraft carriers. 100s of thousands of plane flights a day. We are capable of all of this but can't get men to the moon? You fell for the fake moon landing nonsense without seriously looking into it. You accepted something that was fed to you and only showing specific things that confirm your beliefs. All of this is easily debunked and explained. It was seen by hundreds of thousands of people from multiple states, tracked by radios all over the world and I have been a part of bouncing lasers off the reflectors that were placed there. Tin foil? You think that was the structure? Have you looked why that was there or what is does? The lunar lander was a strong amazing design. You can see the building of it and the engineering blueprints. It seems you just saw what you wanted to see and turned off any skepticism or critical thinking. I understand I fell for that BS too. It feels good thinking you know more or are not being a sheep. It's just not the case my friend.
A very modest yet determined and talented man. Pity he passed away soon after this was recorded but he leaves an amazing legacy for future humans to follow.
I wish Neil was still around for the 50th Anniversary of Apollo 11.

An excellent interview with one of the most interesting men of the century.
Such a privilege to watch this:
I was 14 when Apollo 11 went on the Moon mission. I was obsessed with all things Space-related. Currently reading "First Man", a fantastic, detailed book which gives you to understand that Neil Armstrong and his fellow Astronauts were the best and bravest that America could produce.

@@primus7776if you look into it, what was televised in 1969 was from a recording played on a projector they then recorded. NASA doesn’t dispute that. It was for “security reasons” allegedly.
And almost everything since is recording of the broadcast just described.
Pictures you see aren’t originals. They’re copies of copies. Because the originals were lost. Also not disputed by NASA.
Tragic how possibly mankind’s greatest achievement has no original footage left.
Which you can look up on NASA and other government websites.
