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

Someone needs to use a tripod, unsteady video = annoying.

Some facts about Area 51:

- Quite a number of people, both professionals and ordinary citizens, believe that UFOs have been spotted and found in Area 51.
- Area 51 is located in a desert in Nevada.
- The region is approximately 90 miles north of Las Vegas.
- Nuclear testing sites are extremely close to this region.
- The United States government studies top secret technology in Area 51.
- In 1989, Bob Lazer said that he worked with an alien spacecraft here.
- The actual area measures six by ten miles.
- There is a large military base in the center of Area 51; however, the government will not release any details about it.
- Other names for this region include Groom Lake, Neverland, Watertown Strip, Paradise Ranch, The Box, and Dreamland.
- In 2005, Microsoft made a shooter game based on Area 51.
- There is extremely tight security in the area.
- Bombing and artillery practice occurred here during World War II.
- It was abandoned after the war until 1955, when Lockheed Martin decide that this spot was perfect for testing the new U2 spy plane.
- People who do not live too far from Area 51 claim that they have seen UFOs at various times.
- It was designed to keep Soviet spies from obtaining any information about the secrets of the United States.
- Some people feel that the government is trying to cover up aliens at Area 51. Others disagree and feel that there is no such activity during in this region.
- Area 51 has several runways.
- Area 51 is not officially called Area 51.
- Uncovering facts about Area 51 is extremely difficult, since only a select number of government officials know exactly what is going on there at any given moment.
- People who know about Area 51 have signed non-disclosure agreements. Those who have signed the agreements and know about the area can face punishment if they reveal anything.
- One rumor that surrounds Area 51 is that trespassers are shot. People will take them away and they might receive a fine. However, they are not shot.

- It is a detachment of Edwards Air Force Base.
- It is part of the Groom Box, which is a 23 by 25.3 mile rectangular area.
- Some of the runways are closed, or at least so people think. As we noted, it can be difficult to truly garner facts about Area 51.
- People think that they have developed time travel devices in Area 51.
- Not only do some think that aliens are at Area 51, but that the government holds meetings with them.

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.

Area 51 is a great diversion from all the other areas where the government keep it's real secrets. Let us all continue to power the hamster wheel

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.
