Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and a Native American

Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were training for their moon mission in the moonlike deserts of the Western United States, where they had an encounter with an old Native American man.

The man asked what they were doing in the desert. They replied that they were going to travel to the moon, and explore it soon. When the old man heard that, he fell silent and pondered for a few moments, then asked the astronauts for a favor.

"What do you want?" the astronauts asked.

"Well, the people of my tribe believe that sacred spirits live on the moon. I was wondering if you could pass a very important message to them." said the old man.

"Well then, what's the message?" said the astronauts.

The man said something in his native language, and asked the astronauts to repeat it over and over again until they had fully memorized it.

"What does it mean?" asked the astronauts.

"Oh, I cannot tell you. It's a sacred secret that only our tribe and the moon spirits are allowed to know." the old man mentions.

When the astronauts returned to base, they searched and searched until they had found someone who could speak the old man's native language, then asked him to translate the secret message. When they repeated what they had memorized, the translator began to laugh out loud. When he calmed down, the astronauts asked him what it meant.

The man explained the sentence they had memorized so cautiously said,

"Don't believe a single word these white men are telling you. They have come to steal your lands.
