News in a flash—Neil Armstrong was the first man to step foot on the moon and famously left a landmark footprint on its surface. According to reports, he was also the first person to have stepped foot on a light-colored carpet in his parents' bedroom and left a nasty muddy footprint despite his mom's stern and repeated warning. His mom stated that she used to beat the crap out of Neil as a child because he loved to step on everything—couches, cushions, chairs, tables, etc. "That boy steps on anything to leave his marks. He is always the first to step on them things too, so I wasn't surprised at all about the moon thing," his mom recalled.
