Don't know the details, but a baseball player was giving an interview, and at the last moment basically blind caught a ball about to wreck the interviewer.

Felix Baumgartner's freefall from the edge of space.

Edit: you asked for stories, read it as videos for some reason

I think most of them will include videos, what with that having been the gold standard of untamperability way back when.

As quality audio was. AI slop is eerily good at nailing the hit-like formula. On the other hand, AI is probably much worse at making realistic real life audio.

Remember that sign language interpreter for Nelson Mandela's funeral?

There was a video of an Howl/Eagle flying off with a baby, it was an hoax but it was watched all around the world

Now something like that would be laugh at and label AI generated

The moon landing already is already a conspiracy theory, so that? Or if reported from reputable sources it might just be the same conspiracy theorists dismissing it.
