Since apocryphal means (of a story or statement) of doubtful authenticity, although widely circulated as being true, wouldn't the answer to this question be D?

But we do have most biographers....therefore many people, who could be scholars or even simple neighbors, knew the story and told us over the certurries.
In the end the story was not narrated by unknowns so it can not be labeled as apocryphal.
E is the correct choice

Real ETS GRE problem would never be like this. The author doesn't impose any adjective to the story except that the theory lack of verifiable sources. It is possible that the story confuses him (baffling), make him laugh (humorous), or that he can connect the story with the theory of gravity (comprehensible).
