You cant really just step in there and walk like you dont give a fuck. That "main gate" is constantly being guarded, both by the guy up there in the car(skip to the end) and alot of cameras around the place. The base is heavily guarded. There is alot of videos to their trip to area 51 and the closest they can get is to the damn sign saying something about no trespassing.

Kinda weird that a thread like this pops out the same day I watched plenty of area 51 videos. :shock:

edit: I did see one video today when one guy almost stood next to the sign, the door on the car that was guarding the road flew up instantly. Was like he was waiting for him to actually pass the sign so he could shoot him or something.

I doubt it has any aliens or anything...well you never know do you? ;P
But its more then likely a top secret testing area for new experimental air craft that the US military is developing...hence why people see lights in the sky and such crap

I hope your kidding.


Ont: I had a teacher who used to be in Air Force for like 10-15 years. When we asked him he said it was just a training area, or something close to that can't remember since its been so long. Don't know how credible he would be though...

I think its 100% for testing new air craft...who knows...maybe some alien craft there did crash and they simple retro-desinged what was left of it.

Keep in mind that the US airforce only disclosed the exsistence of the stealth fighter to the world almost 11 years after it had been in service.

Likewise during ww2 many germany, american and british pilots spotted strange lights above the skies of europe, dubbed "foo fighters" at the time and believe some form of alien intervention its now more accpeted that these so called "foo fighters" were just a highly advanced german experiment into anti-gravity technology.

Yeah, that video is kinda annoying, how ever there is better videos on YT, I just took that one since it was the first on the list when I searched for it. :P

Thats the second stargate from the antartic at area 51, which ended up replacing the one what
was lost at the bottom of the ocean....which was the one at stargate command.
But then the second stargate got blown up...and then the russians found the one on the bottom of the ocean and loaded it back to the US government.... :palm:

Area 51 has been made public to use reverse psychology that it's real, making people believe it's fake while it's 52 you should watch out for.

No aliens. Highly improbable. (I'm not discounting the fact that life - whether simple or complex - can exist outside our Earth but chances of spaceships flying to our planet is very unlikely.)

I'd say DARPA or Lockheed Martin uses it as their playground..but that's just a wild guess.

My Uncle was in the Airforce and said A-51 isn't as big a deal as everyone makes it, but it does have some National Security Type Secrets. Wouldn't elaborate. It's just R&D Imo.

That's what they want him to say and what they want you to think. See the military is genius when it comes to Area 51.

All they had to do was keep everything about it a secret and then the mass public did the rest. Rumors that there are aliens there, speculation, paranoia, etc. It's all manufactured by the public and we all feed off of it.
Speak the truth, even if your voice shakes.
