Ryan Newman is the rare NASCAR driver who has a college degree, having earned a B.S. from Purdue in vehicle structure engineering in 2001. But perhaps he had a radical history teacher at that institution, because Newman doesn't believe Neil Armstrong ever stepped foot on the Moon.

Said Newman of the original Moon landing, to the Greensboro News-Record:

"I'm pretty sure it was fake. I watched the documentary on it, and it's pretty easy to believe. The flag was standing straight out when there's no wind up there. When they step on the surface, there should have been a big cloud because there's no atmosphere."

In fairness to Newman, there are many people who agree with him.
