    My mate teaches in a school in Cameroon, and was kind enough to give his kids the morning off to watch the match. As you can see, they weren't too excited or anything!

    Same here. BUT. I seem to remember reading that what we actually watched was a recording of what had happened a few hours previously ie in the middle of the night. I refuse to believe this. It was live.

    It's true, it WAS a recording. I also watched it at school.

    Touchdown was 20:17 GMT 20th July 1969

    You didn't watch it live at school

    That might be a fact but I believed it was live at the time. SO I STILL DO. You'll be telling me Father Christmas isn't real next.

    Of course Father Christmas is real! There's still some people who actually believe Elvis is dead, too!

    Thread diverted to completely obscure subject after 3 comments.. That's got to be a record. Next we'll be hearing that John's Cameroon school post never really happened & was filmed in a completely different location, months previously.. :rolleyes:

    It's true. If you look carefully, those ecstatic school kids are actually CIA imposters.
