The burden of proof was accepted and has been fulfilled.
The burden of proof therefore lies on the person who refutes the historical and scientific record.
The hoaxists' claims all come down to falsehood and/or scientific illiteracy. I have not seen a single hoax claim that does not. So far the people who say it did not happen. They do not have one shred of proof that they are fake.
