The UFO Phenomenon

UFO investigators capture images of Area 51

A new video has been released with never-before-seen footage and pictures of the secretive US base.
Tim Doyle and Tracey Sue of "UFO Seekers" recently ventured out in to the scorching Nevada desert to see if they could catch a glimpse of what is often referred to as the world's most secretive base.

The self-funded enthusiasts filmed their journey as they navigated countless miles of dirt road in an effort to find a good vantage point from which they could see inside the facility.

The mountaintop they finally ended up at, which is approximately 42 miles from the base, is known as Tikaboo Peak. It was so far away that the pictures they took were only possible using a telephoto lens.

The video of their journey, as well as the footage they recorded of the base, can be viewed below.

Well... you are obviously more competent at cars than I am.  Notwithstanding... would you CHOOSE a standard "road" vehicle...and then spend money on putting decals on it.. if you where going to undertake this particular mission ?  anyway...  you are correct to pick me up on this, because the choice of vehicle is irrelevant. Their video is all that matters.

Had to give em the benefit of a doubt, but yeah, I'm 99.99999999% sure you're spot on, mate.

Agreed, I've personally witnessed five UFO's on four occasions. My first thought wasn't aliens, first it was planned, then satellites, then when they zoomed in angles and arches at "impossible" speeds I was sure it was not anything in the public sphere. Could be any number of things but Aliens? I love Ripley and the gang, but no, I have a feeling it's some sort of magnetic or perhaps interdimensional phenomenon. I'm more of an, "I don't know" kinda guy. People who shout UFO before Superman, Bird or Plane irritate the crap outta me.

Other than what seems like several expensive cameras, they make this journey and trek with what seems a poor plan and little else. What if one of them was bitten by a rattlesnake? Why go up there without towing a couple of ATV's that would most certainly get you pretty far up that mountain? Why walk all the way to the peak and then not stay there to see what happens at night, which would likely have the most visual activity. As dramatic as the music is, the actual payoff is anticlimactic. Buildings and roads shown from a great distance. Not worth the 18 minutes. Finally, I will give them credi... [More]

Can't find anything about it being closed, Wiki (below) says it's still publicly assessable and two other vantage points were closed in 1995. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tikaboo_Peak 'Tikaboo Peak is a mountain in Lincoln County, Nevada, United States 26 miles (42 km) to the east of Area 51. It is the closest publicly accessible vantage point with a view of the area. Tikaboo Peak is used because the government closed two closer vantage points to Area 51—Freedom Ridge and White Sides—to public access in 1995, due to the number of people photographing or filming the base from th...

Looks like people here are just mad that they didn't prove any aliens and UFOS in the video. But is this not the clearest images of Area 51 to date?

I would like to think there was something to the alien spacecraft at Area 51 stories... but I can't. All of the people that come forward with fanciful yarns of ETs and their spacecraft being there, like Bob Lazar, aren't at all convincing. Sadly, there's not a shred of evidence to support any of these claims. Lazar's story is so full of holes it would be invisible to the naked eye.
