That time I saw a guy edit a photo of the moon landing live at a bar in Austin

I was at this dive bar called The Lost Well in Austin last October and some dude pulled out a laptop at 1am. He literally showed me how he could take a NASA moon landing photo and overlay a fake shadow in Photoshop in like 5 minutes. He said the real photos don't have consistent shadows and that's his proof they were staged. I've looked at those photos different ever since. Has anyone else seen someone actually demonstrate photo fakery like that in person?

Did your friend ask the guy why he was faking shadows at a bar at 1am?

@avery_jackson That's basically the same thing I was wondering. If you can fake a shadow in five minutes at a dive bar, that just proves how easy it is to fake anything - not that the originals are fake.

Nah, but that bar story sounds like a perfect example of confirmation bias in ACTION.
