According to the speculation of Streetcap1, the man in the astronaut's helmet appeared to be a one with long hair.

The comments on the video show mixed reactions of the viewers.

"Geez. The moon landing was real folks. Unbelievable. Don't you think that a fake photo would have been spotted in the last 37-38 years? Clearly a distorted astronaut. Entertaining though. :)," Eric Kirk stated.

"Pretty earth-shaking for a believer in the landing," said another viewer named Kati Obrien.
