As wdfifteen mentioned there is a whole clip on youtube of that nut stalking Apollo astronauts and harassing them. After a heated debate I believe he did actually get Gene Cernan to swear on the bible.
In any interview I've ever seen of the Apollo astronauts they always seem like calm, level-headed and highly competent individuals, giving detailed descriptions of their missions. The moon-hoax crowd tend to come across like that guy: raving lunatics.

Yea, for the most part the astronauts are very level headed. In the movie Apollo 13 the one fact that really strayed from the reality was the argument and raised voices on board. They added that for dramatic effect. In reality they remained very professional even in the face of a high probability of death.
