The measured FACTS are:
The measured mean lifetime of a stationary muon is 2.2 μs
The measured mean lifetime of a muon moving at 0.999668⋅c is 85.36 μs.

Do you really not understand how ridiculous it is to claim
that these facts do not exist because you "know" they can't exist?

You don't know the difference between science and religion.

You _believe_ SR is nonsense, and ignore facts to keep your faith.
