In a very real sense, scientists are always trying to prove themselves wrong. That's what it means to form a hypothesis and test it in order to "falsify" a theory. The best way to prove something in science is wrong is to become a real scientist, and investigate the subject you believe has errors using the scientific method yourself. You could also try watching "Mythbusters". Despite being entertainment, they actually do real science every week.
