  • Space Cadets | Would You Believe You Went to Space? These People Did

    Space Cadets | Would You Believe You Went to Space? These People Did
    Feb 11 2025
    Imagine stepping onto a plane, believing you're on your way to a top-secret Russian space training camp. You undergo intense astronaut training, compete for a once-in-a-lifetime chance to go to space, and then… you launch into orbit. Or at least, that’s what you think is happening. In 2005, the UK reality TV show Space Cadets pulled off one of the greatest hoaxes in television history. A group of contestants were led to believe they had spent five days in space when, in reality, they never left the ground.

  • Kony 2012 | How Kony 2012 Took Over the World – And Fell Apart

    Kony 2012 | How Kony 2012 Took Over the World – And Fell Apart
    Feb 4 2025
    In 2012, a short film took over the internet. It was called Kony 2012, and its goal was clear: make the world aware of Joseph Kony, the leader of the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA). The campaign was created by Invisible Children, a nonprofit that wanted to stop Kony and his army from kidnapping children in Uganda. The video quickly became one of the most viral in history, reaching over 100 million views in just a few days. Then, just weeks after the video went viral, the movement collapsed. Jason Russell, the filmmaker behind Kony 2012, suffered a public mental health crisis. A video of him breaking down on a California street spread quickly, intensifying media scrutiny. The “Cover the Night” event, meant to be the campaign’s most significant moment, failed. Fewer people participated than expected, and some took the opportunity to vandalize public spaces instead.
