If I could be bothered I'm sure I could find a picture of a jeep in the desert with no visible tyre tracks.

Lunar lift-off boosters > It's on the Moon! you don't need much to overcome the 1.62m/s2 Lunar gravity and the burn time was several minutes to reach the command module orbit & velocity.

Lunar lift-off G force > About 0.5g, similar to any contemporary sports car getting off the start line. The TV camera wasn't very far away (maybe 20metres) from the lander so the launch only 'looks' neck snapping.

I assume you think the Russian, Indian & Chinese space agencies are also actively involved in an ongoing half century cover-up and when they all eventually put boots on the moon it'll also be faked?
