It is known that Buzz Aldrin is the second man on the Moon.

It was also told that the competition was not that hard as one has to capture US astronaut Buzz Aldrin eating some fresh produce from Carnarvon in Western Australia.

Even the astronaut praised the bananas he was served. He also said that the bananas were good enough to be sent to space and he thoroughly enjoyed eating them.
