Jerry Freeman was my substitute teacher back in 1998. He told the entire class about his explorations and adventures, as well as his quest through area 51. He had the whole class intrigued with his story to the point nobody wanted to go to recess when the bell rang. Lol. Jerry is a legend. Glad I was blessed with the opportunity to meet him, better yet have him as a substitute teacher. REST WELL JERRY..
He made it up
@@luckylarry88 nahhhh. Google him.
@@MAEZIJING He told the story a bunch of times, that isn't proof. Where is the actual documentation not random b roll.
@@luckylarry88 he cant prove its real, but you cant prove he is lying either
@@luckylarry88
Here's the thing do we know he's telling the truth? Or lying. Sure opinions are assholes and everyone had one.
But this is ignorance at his finest. Because he is not alive to show proof you are going to essentially be an asshole and force your opinion that you think its fake on this man and confusing it for fact.
Plus you don't have any evidence that he is lying.
Some people would think that he had a death wish. I disagree. He pulled this off because he had a LIFE wish. He lived more in that short trip than most people do in their entire lives.
What he means with the lost 49ers?...only 49ers i know is the football team...

@@goldenrule6182 back in 1849 a group of pioneers set off across the country in horse drawn wagons, horseback, walking, mule, it didn't matter. Yes, 1849. Lol
@@goldenrule6182 in 1848 gold had been discovered at Sutter's Mill, California. Most people left in 1849 to go get rich quick. It was a hard long journey and few got rich. Many lost their lives on the trail and in the mines.
Jerry Freeman was my grandpa and he was truly an iconic figure. He took us hiking all over California. Him and his partner Lee were the first people (at the time) to hike from Death Valley to Mount Whitney. He also found several treasures from the 49ers trek, though some were disputed by other researchers. I feel blessed to have been taken on a few of these adventures as a teenager. RIP papa Jerry 🙏🏼
That's beautiful ❤
Jerry's my mother
@@kcunningham9085 lmao
So Hunter Kowald is your dad?
Freeman was a pioneer himself. I'm sure you have great memories to share.
The government knew Jerry was in there and watched him every step of the way in and out. So now if anyone tries they will have to answer to the government. Jerry fulfilled his goal here on earth and was taken home and that is a class act. Prayers to his family.
I have no doubt they knew he was there!
This is a fictional story. He wouldn't make it past the front road and trucks. They have motion sensors everywhere and cameras. This is a complete lie and only people who have children minds believe this hilarious nonsense.
Hide and Seek on Nightmare setting. He had some gigantic balls to pull that off. What a legend. He won't be forgotten.

Not only was Jerry Freeman a true adventurer, seeker of knowledge, and lover of history, but he also had a beautiful way with words! What a cool dude.😊😊😊

Breaking into Area 51 to steal an archeological artifact is like breaking into Fort Knox to steal a pen.
Some people like a challenge.
Its like catching your missus cheating with another guy in living room and just going to your bed because you are tired, instead of totally smashing other guys face in
Lana!
@@colintosh5417 why would you smash the guys face , when it is YOUR girlfriend that is cheating on you. You just kick her ass out and then get cozy in your bed. And no , your comparison doesnt really fit tbh.
You do both out of sheer masculinity
That's true individual spirit and tenacity in the face of military denial. I salute you Jerry ❤
I read the articles when they were first published and remained intrigued by them years later. Every few months his story would come to mind. His storytelling really gave you a cinematic “you are there” experience. And he saw some really strange things. And he amazingly made it thru without being caught or hurting himself. An amazing man.
This man was like Indiana Jones... He seriously adventured for history, knowledge and the scenery. I am so glad he completed his journey. I would love to hear more stories like this.
No, he did it for clout and attention. If it were just for learning he wouldn't have done all the interviews and stories. He's nothing more than a clout chaser
@@Mjones8383 if you were able to go through what he did and lived to tell... wouldn't you? Especially in such a controversial place. Ofc, if you ask me, I think the guards knew of his whereabouts but left him alone because they knew his intentions and saw he wasn't trying to snoop or be disruptive. He did ask for permission beforehand to come with a team and was denied... but coming alone and venturing...? Maybe they went like "hey, let's see what he's up to and how far he'll go".
37:00 he dresses the part and looks like a knock off I love it
@@m0t0b33 it's possible but imo he was chasing fame. If you're going to break the law the last thing you do is tell people you did it right after doing so.
@@Mjones8383 he's an archeologist, his JOB is to find out about human history and share his findings with the world. nowhere was he bragging about what he did, he even admits what he did wasn't reasonable. and about the law part, did you watch the end of the video at all?
Haha at first I thought he was probably a "pseudo-archeologist" and was gonna go looking for aliens or something, but no! His devotion to archeology and learning, to the point he'd risk his life is undeniablely admirable! RIP Freeman.
There isn't anything admirable about some jackass knowingly probing a military facility. For what? A piece of rottin wood? Lol.
@@alexb7641 he asked nicely first, the air force just didn't want to set the precedent of allowing academics onto the site. I'm more impressed with his desert survival skills, making it a week in the some of the most inhospitable and heavily guarded terrain in the US is no small accomplishment.
@@justindunlap1235 it's not an accomplishment, it's a felony, no doesn't mean yes. If his survival skills are so great why would he drink radioactive water lol. There are layers of stupid that are hard to comprehend behind this.

Jerry Freeman ... what an extraordinary man. What a hero. What a man with conviction. God bless him.
Jerry was a legend! I can't imagine the emotions he must have gone through spending 7 days inside the zone.
Jerry: Can I have restricted access to area 51 for research?
US Air Force: No.
Jerry: That's ok I don't really need permission.
He was really asking as a courtesy 🤣
And he took it personally
They should've executed him. Governments have a right to protect their secrets.
Aunty Lisa?
Jerry: yea.... I was more just letting you know
😂 😂
My husband worked as an electrician and got a job out of state Area 51 in Nev. VERY high security. He had to go through what was called a Q Clearance. Where his whole life up until then was under scrutiny. Everyone that we knew here in California for approximately 10 years were interviewed.How they knew us? Did they know of any illegal activity performed by my husband? Etc. Etc. Once he got the job. He had to wear a special badge that would identify him and also show any radioactive material that may have gotten on or close to him. His job was to stand over holes and drop wires 6 thousand feet into the ground. A few times they had to make sure that certain things were completely covered as he told me about the Russian satellites that would fly over at certain times and how they had the ability to zoom in so well that they could read the words on a match book cover. Those were just the things that he could tell me.The pay was super good for being in 1981-82, but I never liked him working there. Once his work there was done. We moved back to California when I got tired of living in Nevada and missing our families and all the beautiful greenery.
Man, all that interviewing ppl 10 years back and here’s his missus like hey!!!! My man … 😂😂😂
Update: Husband & Wife were Arrested.
Crime: Moving back to California

@Aubries Reviews what are you taking about?
@@OOceaneyess I would assume that since it’s a reply to the original comment, she has a significant other who has high level security clearance somewhere and that’s the things they look at for the persons background
Although it’s 2 years old and I just found this story it was very good I’ve never heard of this topic before thank you for sharing it one big thumbs up ..
dont matter if its 100 years old.. amazing story
@@AndrewLee-iz2ic yes sir
I forgot about Art Bell. I used to love that show. I'd sneak and stay up late in my room listening as a kid.
This is quite possibly the best story of rogue archaeology I've ever heard. RIP Jerry. May you, your work, and your spirit of adventure live on forever in these memories and the tales of those who will follow in your path.
Just dont let the path take you onto the most secretive corner of the earth! LOl
@@inconnu4961 why ? Whats there?
Check out "the smoky god"
No, it buried the lead with entirely too much backstory about some guys who almost died panning for gold. Blah Blah Blah Bl-fugging-Blah. We could find any number of videos pertaining to the Gold Rush of the 1800s. I was seriously left wondering if we'd EVER get to the story about a guy sneaking into Area 51.
@@parker6334 underground civilizations they dont even tell u about. undeground cities. possibly even a hollow earth as Halley theorized but there are undoubtedly SIGNIFICANT interior spaces within the earth even a sub global system linking all continents. politics is a sideshow
This is the pretty much the first time I have heard of someone being so very well prepared (including making sure to let someone know where he was going etc)
mad props to this guy revealing this journey
35:51 he hid his gear and looked again? Glad to see his gear, which he got rid of miles back, caught up to him.
I don’t think he left all his gear, just a lot of it
I could not figure out his cell phone. I mean what did that weigh.
He hid his gear so he can crawl/sneak/stand and appear a smaller target obviously.
I'm 99% sure they knew he was there and just didn't do anything because they knew what his intention was. The reasons they didn't give him (or anyone else) permission is because 1) they didn't want to be responsible for him getting sick and 2) they don't want to admit how dangerous the area actually is. The area around Groom Lake is a cesspool and likely one of the most deadly places on earth.
Mind explaining why those areas are what you say? I’m just a curious man that loves to learn. Anyone is welcome to answer
@@nickspeakstruth133 I'm curious as well
@@mendoblendo321 probably from nuclear tests
He did die shortly after.
Because of the toxic waste. Google how Bill Clinton stopped the lawsuit from employees with a presidential election. The EPA couldn’t do shyt. Many many people died from the toxic waste
I will never understand the over 1,000 “thumbs down”. This was one of the best and well-done “amateur” documentaries I’ve ever watched. I have no credentials to be a judge of that; save for my avid interest in such work. Two thumbs up!
Thank you Katie. 🐺🐺
The thousand thumb downs are the people who worked at Area 51 that week 😂😂
My theory is that a lot of people are hitting thumbs down because they did not believe the story. Or maybe they didn't even watch the video and just wanted to call b*******. I agree with you! This was fabulous, and I am so glad I took the time to watch it. And what an incredible guy that man was!
A lot of people don't understand what the downvote is for and use it as a "don't suggest such things to me, youtube" button.
I feel like a lot of them were people expecting the explorer to be interested in the "aliens/UFO" theories of Area 51. I was too to be honest, but I LOVED this. His story was so amazing! True adventurer right there.
I worked for Hertz heavy equipment in Las Vegas and had to personally deliver a street sweeper to area 50 called the warehouse. I was wearing a polo shirt and slacks and became very worried I had to take a piss really bad and I just pulled over and took a piss in the middle of the desert over by these buildings I seen dudes in Hazmat gear and began to worry if I am being exposed to something. When I delivered the street sweeper to area 50 the people were really weird inside and then when I left I barely had enough gas to get out of there. I don't know what they're doing there but I was as deep as you could be. Area 50 is where all the intake is for equipment and such.
you could have been exposed to alien jizz spores
In what way were they weird?
There was a mine, discovered by a man & woman in the '60s, close to this area. It was taken over by the military when ore was found. The story was in an Argosy or True magazine back then.
He was so courageous, and thankfully, he didn't leave empty-handed. He was lucky to have left with his life. It's really too bad he didn't live that much longer after his trip into area 51.Some people may have thought he was crazy to enter area 51, but I think he was smart, skillful, and had BALLS! 😊
if he had just had a couple hundred naruto runners as a distraction he could have had a lot better time.
That's what you think?
@@astralmindny9055. Yeah
He was killed by the security forces
Lucky to have left with his life. You watch too many moveis hahahahahaha
Not gonna lie, if people can storm the Capital, I have no problem believing someone survive a week in Area 51.
Checkmate.
Right
they had inside peeps
Right
As long as you have a BLM or Antifa patch shit theylle even let you make it your own town for a week.
Damn Courageous Man. It takes a a hell of a man to do something like that. One Hell Of A Man !! I appreciate the strife that the 49er’s experienced there and I also appreciate the wild adventure that he experienced to bring it to the forefront. Yes, Yes, Yes, Hell Yes !!!
he walk in to hell. and it got him
Pearblossom, Jerry was from Pearblossom, Ca. I went to school with his daughters and he was an active leader for our youth group at church.
RIP Jerry, your adventurous spirit is missed
I'm SO sorry for everyone's loss
Sounds like he was an awesome person and his daughters have a great story to pass on to their children, their grand children and so on. They probably have a lot of stories to share. To bad it took over 20 yrs. to be shared. Still a great story and great narrating too!
@@mrsouth-ni3zj Where's your off switch?
Wow, I would've loved to have met him, what an awesome guy!
May he rest in peace ❤ and his amazing story will live forever
Church you say ? Well we have some evidence then that the guy was prone to believe nonsense without sufficient or even any evidence.
Plot Twist: He also left an inscription of his own for future adventurers to find.
Hope he really did that tho because his journey was of worth to be remembered.
I didn't think about that but I pray he did also
How awesome would that be! he so should have!!!!
KILROY WAS HERE ! 😉
He didn’t actually make the journey?
I thought of that during the story. I thought he should put his own information there especially bc it’s even harder to get to now more or less.
I'm guessing that he was the only person that pulled his adventure off and it's so sad 😔 that it may have cost him his life with the water and terrain that he passed through that was probably radioactive and toxic..May he rest in peace and still having fun adventures in Heaven above, may God always bless his friends and family as well ❤
The “truth is out there” is so cliche yet so true. We need more explorers and legends like that man!
Had a neighbor who worked at 51 he is now an alcoholic. And moves from State to state. He had some crazy tales
So please do tell... Lol what field was he at there?
@@JD-Media that was the joke...smh!!
Bob Lazar?
Do tell
Lots of people struggle with schizophrenia...
"I'm not interested in the military. I'm an archaeologist" 😏
😩🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So that's how Freeman got hired at Black Mesa.
Actually not that hard to do. We did it several times as kids and never got caught. We used to go inside the fence area we found these seismic sensors. I had my ham lic, tuned up on there frequently. We would shake the hell out of the sensors and go hide, couple minutes later a couple of white pickup trucks would show up. We never came close to getting caught.
🤣🤣that’s golden
This has to be one of the most awesome stories I have had the privilege to have heard. Hearing this gentleman's quest for information has brought a spark within me that has all but dried up, just as it should others.
I wonder how he got around so easily while clearly having to transport his giant balls. This guy had true dedication and passion for his craft and was willing to do it all to quench his thirst for knowledge, truly inspiring.
There was a military report debunking this story and everything he claimed he did. Not one picture has ever been produced that he said he took. But keep that spark alive brother. Not because of anyone else. But because these days right here right now you will look back on and wish you could have again. You will look back to today and truly understand how good you looked and how much opportunity you had. Exercise, drink water, get your credit cleaned up and work your ass off. But work harder on yourself than you do your job! But while at your job do more than you get paid for. Start your 401k or other retirement account right now! Or increase your contribution percentage… dedicate all your spare time to your big dream and always keep that on the movie screen of your mind. Don’t let petty things annoy you and get you off course. Treat him like a gust of wind and let them pass by… when you start living this way the shit no longer falls out of the sky lands on you. It might take a little bit but just stay on this path with severe resolve. all the best…
The dude deserves a medal..
And a fucking hug Jesus

Jerry lived up to his last name “Freeman”. Unbelievable story. Thanks EWU!
Imagine being Black in the late 1800’s into the 1900’s with that last name.
What I find more interesting than this story is how much power we have allowed our government to have. While I agree that military should have some secrets to protect our nation; it has reached a ridiculous point.. When they started deciding what we can and can't handle or how much "truth" we should know, it crossed a line!! I want to see FULL DISCLOSURE!! Americans should put on their big boy/girl pants and America the F up!
You are right. Folk blindly believe and follow. Govt has many scams going on. DMV being one. Only commercial truck drivers need licenses. It is not required by law for driving in your day to day activities. Speed limits signs are posted for commercial trucks. Look it up.
Come on , you cant believe that. My buddy was killed in Afghanistan serving with the 82nd , he would bring shoes over he collected when he was home in New York. While giving them to children he was ambushed and killed with three other dedicated men in his unit. They all had family / kids and should still be here . Any advantage in war , developed by Americans needs to be protected. For full disclosure read about it yourself..... SGT Mark Palmateer

First time listening/watching your channel. Let me tell you, I enjoyed this story-telling. Am excited to hear more of this, so I Subscribed.
Brave man, not for just going through Area 51 but for chasing after something he wanted to see and find. Maybe he didnt find exactly what he set out to find but thats so cool. I love it he had an adventure.
Layering the 2 stories was an excellent way to tell them. Making these videos is tough and finding the right way to tell a story can make you go insane for real lol
Good job on this one. A++
Honestly tho, I don’t know barely enough about history and even a standalone video on the 49ers would be cool to watch. Nice to learn hadnt even heard of them before :)
I always thought the 49ers were miners.
@@impurr5681 lol you thought they were just a football team? 😆
This guy is brave and adventurous af. I wish I had the courage to go on a trip like that
I’m suprised he was able to walk that far with massive balls of steel
Wish you guys told more stories like this. LOVE ITTTTTT ❤
The man cares more about the archaeological record than national security or personal safety. The man's a hero to american history and culture
Every time I drive from Michigan to Arizona and back I think about the people who settled it and how they could possibly have done it. If you've never seen the obstacles they had to overcome you can't even begin to understand the difficulties and challenges they faced. Just a 20 mi stretch in a valley could take a couple of days or more trying to get through all the washes to find places to cross. Every trip back and forth I'm in awe of the people that made that journey. I'm cruising on a paved highway at 65 mph and some of those valleys seem like it takes forever to get to the other side.
Imagine the guys that cut those highways through the Rockies
I feel like that everytime I travel anywhere bro it's the little things many dont take time to realize we as a people have came a long way 💯
My Great Grandmother was born in a sod house that her parents had to stop and make a long their way, bcuz she was due any day. Thankfully, they was able to finish it and give birth to her inside it & out of the weather. They ended up just settling & working the land there. I was blessed by having her in my life until my teens. I used to love her stories, like only having dirt floors, no indoor anything like water, electricity, etc. , until the main house was built some years later. That was on my mother's side, on my father's side my Great Grandparents pretty much raised me, as I stayed with them on the farm more than not. My Gr8 grandfather built 3 amazing homes & I'm still trying to just rebuild one, ha. I have a ton of his old tools, & it still blows my mind, between his & other's craftsmanship back then using such rudimentary tools. Anyways, Now when I travel, I almost always, think of how hard it was back then & how tough people were. Especially compared to what we currently have going on with society & governments.

Need more stories like this please.
Was stationed at Edwards AFB for 5 years. 2011-2016. Worked F-16s and F-35s. The commander of the base at the time would fly out to Groom Lake once a month in a 16. When I documented those flights in the software, the 3 letter code for Groom Lake was never used. It was known he was flying there but, was never properly documented. Super secret squirrelly stuff lol
This dude deserves so many levels of respect. If I could applaud him today i would even in an empty room and i can only imagine the red tape he had to do.
Exactly right, me too!!
(This is just my own personal belief, I'm not trying to push it on anyone else): Someday, when it's my turn to die, I believe I'll get the chance to meet him in heaven, along with all the other amazing people whose stories have inspired me from the time I was a little girl.
I'm going to applaud him then👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
What an amazing and inspiring guy!
I love this story. Although he died a few years after his adventure (maybe he was targeted after they knew he was there) he hiked longer, harder, and saw things that 95% of people could never see in a lifetime... Such a epic story!👽💜
You mean 99,9% of people...not that many people work at Area 51 lol
Targeted with colon cancer? That wouldn't be very easy
@@alexxander966 Would it? this is area 51 we talking about..
Yes they target people and give them cancers.
He died of prostate cancer. He wasn't "targeted."
There is no way dude survived in Area 51. They know when a mouse farts.
What did he mean by,
"Stones disappeared without a trace."
Did they sink, turn invisible, glow until nothing was left?
I tend to believe they knew he was there. The only reason they didn't go after him, was the fact he attempted to notify higher ups of his archaelogical interests. The fact he did not walk up to any of the security areas, or look into any windows, etc, i believe saved him.
Since he had no interest in their "black ops" work, they left him alone. I believe had he been lurking around any of their ultra security areas, he would have been eradicated.
My thoughts exactly.
It seems obvious that they would have had him under surveillance and as his path matched up with his stated aims he was given a long leash.
and u Know if they woulda got him it would a been all bad.
either dead or locked up for life probly in THEIR jail😮
I crewed on an off road race car in Nevada. So our personal trucks were designed for off road use. We made it to the gates for Area 51 several miles in from Hwy 375. We found ground sensors buried up to 50 feet from the road, and several cameras. Not long after our arrival a white Jeep Cherokee with heavily tinted windows showed up. We hadn't crossed the line but we decided to leave anyway. They definitely knew he was there.
If this is true, he was probably also helped by the fact that it was the '90s, after the Cold War and before 9/11. I can't imagine security letting him get away with it before 1991 or after 2001.
He must of crawled around like a tortoise 🐢.😅
It would be cool if they made a movie about this Freeman’s story
I agree, but it would require an amazing lead actor and screenwriter. Not many would have the skill to do this story justice as a movie. But EWU has done a great job here in this video, so maybe it'll inspire some talented director to take up the challenge. I'd love to see this movie on screen, after the pandemic when our local theaters reopen. . .
This is his story
As long as it's not by Hollywood. He would be a transexual black woman.
@@paula3582 kinda like your mom
Hollywood would change it into a story of him entering the underground base and seeing the aliens.
With all the ground sensors, microphones and cameras and security I find it hard to believe that anyone can get that far in. But it’s a cool story. I’m surprised more people don’t try this.
Moral of the story, be weary of taking short cuts.
It's rare that you find someone who is this passionate and driven to pursue what makes them happy....I'm like that though, and I bet he and I would have been good friends. When I was 18, my parents tricked me into signing a commitment document to a girls' psychiatric rehab ranch in Texas, while I was already committed to a Georgia hospital (I struggled with mental health growing up). We flew to Houston and drove south...when I got there, I swore to my parents I'd get out. I ended up fleeing the property one night, walked all the way to the nearest town, and walked into a truck stop so I could find someone to hitchhike with. I ended up hitchhiking around the country with truckers, experiencing a 70s road life, and even got to drive the truck (not legally of course). I ended up getting paid under the table to drive while he slept. Sometimes you just have to pick the risky route and live the best life. Im glad he found that flame inside of him.
Really awesome story.
Was it blue ridge wilderness program in Georgia? Heartlight in Texas? I went to 3 other therapeutic boarding school in Utah, and two in North Carolina. Totally fine now, but at the time it was brutal. I’m happy for you that you are now well.
I think I just fell in love 😍😂
@@sarac1118 In Georgia it was Ridgeview Institute and in Texas it was an equine ranch called Fulshear. I've been committed 14 times to facilities and that Texas camp was the worst of all of them. They said we would be riding horses...all we did was shovel squat and work around the barn, and they had us shoved into three tiny cabins in the middle of a field. I felt like I was in the movie Holes.
Glad you made it out Alive lol that could of gone wrong!! You could of ended up on cold case files 🤣
Wow I never heard of this man!! I'm glad I came across this documentry... well done good sir !!!! Rest in Peace
Jerry takes being a 49ers fan to a whole new level
I gotta say, that's pretty funny.
Man, what a story and storytelling. Time flew.
Jerry was my local milkman back in 1994, he was such an amazing person- so polite and always on time.
I can't help but wonder if top brass decided to allow Jerry to sneak through under close surveillance to ensure that he did not come too close to anything he shouldn't see. Obviously, even if they wanted him to complete his work, there was no way for them to grant him access, not even temporary, escorted access. Yet, it is hard to believe that a normal civilian without any stealth training would be able to achieve such a feat, but perhaps he did. On some level, it just seems more realistic that they let him while keeping an eye on him 24/7 than a person being successful to infiltrate and wander about such a highly guarded facility, no matter how vast the land was.
Agree. It would make the video clips titled “actual Area 51” make sense, as they don’t if he was not allowed and trying to be being stealthy.
He wasn't a normal civilian. He had survival skills and was experienced in the outdoors. That is more important than stealth training
This is the correct answer.
Exactly. Either the security isn’t as tight as people claim or he was allowed through. No I’m between
@@brianrodriguez6897 Stealth training and wilderness survival go hand in hand together. Look at SEAR training for example
This would be an amazing book, movie, and video game.
Would be pretty much like Half life (1999) turned into a stealth game and without the interdimentional war thing, he already is called Freeman!
disco?
Your right!
The Oregon Trail!! Haha
@@Britni3125 yeah but with ✨aliens✨
crazy how the guy who got deeper than anyone else at area 51 was not interested on area 51 at all
Man congrats on the channel been wild since I’ve been on and channel had blew up that’s awesome 😎
With the countless amount of "conspiracy theorists" in the world that have wished, tried, and failed to sneak into Area 51, I find it hilarious that the one person that was able to accomplish this without being caught by the military(for a whole friggin WEEK, might I add!) was someone that wasn't even interested in looking for proof of alien lifeforms👽😂😂
Of course he would say that
I think that they were aware of his presence the whole time but decided that with the minimal risk and the fact that he checked out as an archeologist and did not pose a direct threat they could control the trespass and still have plausible deniability and maintain their stance if something went wrong.
How do you think he was undetected for a week?
The aliens gave him a holiday on Planet Zoltan.
Yeah, brilliant. I can imagine the conversations when the airforce heard about it; " a what....not even a nutjob? Made my day that!
@@capcompass9298 Zoltan and his bubble-wrapped army got their own PLANET?
Don't get wrong, the other stories are intriguing and catch my attention for hours at a time but THIS is the kind of stuff I absolutely LOVE to watch. It's been two years since this video was made but if you have anymore of these kinds of videos about weird stuff and looking for literal Hogwarts I would absolutely love that 😊
Well the literal Hogwarts would be Oxford University as that"s were it's filmed, but if you want mythical creatures and magic then you may struggle.
@@nealgrimes4382 you definitely can find what you're looking for if you look hard enough
@@nealgrimes4382yes, the muggle struggle is real
Government agent....
This is such a crock of BS!!! I can prove he is lying and so can anyone else that has ever worked at the Nevada Test Site. I worked at the Nevada Test Site for 8 years (1981 T0 1989) and I have never personally seen the entrance to Area 51. First of all, the only way to get to Area 51 is by plane or vehicle once inside the main gates of the test site. The public cannot see area 51 from any public highway. Even the tunnels I worked in were an hours ride from the main entrance. We would leave Las Vegas at 6:00 in the morning in a company vehicle and arrive at the main entrance to the test site at approximately 7:05. We would then go through security get into a government owned vehicle and drive another hour to the tunnels where we would travel another mile under ground to our work alcove. Those who worked at Area 51 would board government aircraft and fly to Area 51. Yes, he made the story up. He may have gotten inside the test site,( which I highly doubt), but he never even saw Area 51, let alone got there. The government lies, yes. But if you were to venture onto the Test site you would be very subject to be shot. The photo you see is for Test Site officials to enter. All others would have to enter through security at the main entrance and no private vehicles were allowed to travel beyond that point. I get so sick of these lies about people who have ventured onto Area 51. Area 51 does exist but it is just one small section of the Nevada Test Site that spans 1,375 square miles and not visible from any public road. 1,375 SQUARE MILES, LET THAT SINK IN AND THIS IS JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF FAKE NEWS. I had close friends that did work at Area 51 and they would not ever discuss any aspect of their duties or what they saw. They had a TOP SECRET CLEARANCE. My clearance was only secret.
Wow, intense story. Very well done adventure and well told and audiovisually made up.
What an interesting story! I was rivetted from start to finish. A truly amazing man
I'm loving this different type of topic for EWU! This video has been great (I'm half way through so far). I'd love more of this type focusing on historical, mysterious events ❤
I respect this Man’s willingness to exhaust all legal efforts. Once he seen that they would never let him in doing it the right way, he took his chances and lived his dream. No one can take that from him. He is an inspiration.
GOD Bless Him & His Family!
I swear make believe
Wow what a guy! He must of been a tough man and what a adventure! I’m wasting my youth I need to go on some sort of expedition! Cool video too as always love all your channels !
Do people really believe this guy snuck in Ariel 51 and was there a whole week without being detected
What a cool story, really got me on edge imagining how nerve wracking and exciting that would be.
I honestly don't believe that he or anyone could just walk in, walk through, and back. All without being detected?
It's very different now due to thermal imaging.
This was several decades ago. Security systems were much less advanced back then, and even a military base where the peak of security technology would be in use wouldn't have the kind of tech we have today.
@@NickC_222 I can picture that. But is there really any evidence that can back his claims. Is it just that old horse shoe? I don't doubt he did it. I just need more proof before I fall in love.
This was in the 90s, it wasn't that long ago. "Several decades" makes it sound like this was the 60s or something. He had a cellphone and was sending text messages. The military had thermal imaging (especially some place like Area 51), non-cooled thermal cameras were already in civilian use. The main difference would be the proliferation of drones. It's a large area and trying to pick out a single person, who is at least attempting to stay somewhat hidden, in an area where let's face it, people are going to get a bit lazy: "like who the f*** is going to be wandering out here?" Nowadays obviously it's more difficult with drones and the like, as well as the societal shift. I'm sure now it's like "dude, people will eat Tide Pods, lick toilet seats, and film themselves trying to jump over cars all for views, we better keep a closer eye out than ever cause who knows what these morons might attempt."
I believe he's telling the TRUTH..he had nothing to gain by lying may GOD rest his soul
It takes a special kind of stupid to try to sneak into a military base in your own county
Brave but stupid 🤨
Jerry started his journey with his middle finger in the air. Came back with 2 thumbs up! Awesome story!
Wow...never knew about any of the history where Area 51 is. So interesting.
Not surprised about what the government is hiding after visiting an old military battery near San Francisco last year. It was really eye opening. I made a video about on my channel.
Thank you for another awesome video.
What battery? Battery Alexander?
@@LD-ds8nn No, Townsley. On the Marin headlands.
Them: “Hey, Jerry! How are we going to convince the public there’s nothing of interest here at Area 51???”
Jerry: “Let’s tell them I snuck into one of the most secure sites on the planet and stayed a week. AND that there’s nothing to see here.”
who's them? I'm confused
@@Gizmo_- slang for Jewish people. Don’t listen to original comment he’s making fun of Jews and Area 51
@@TheAoalec14 that's not what I took from it but certainly says quite a bit about where your at.
@@TheAoalec14 Stop..just stop that cancel culture crap. Obviously that's not what the OP comment is about
@@Gizmo_- The government. Whoever manages over Area 51.
This video is very coincidental for me. In 1998 I was on my own adventure. I was on a cross-country bicycle trip with my girlfriend going from Seattle to Fort Lauderdale. We rode through and camped in Death Valley. We also camped in Roswell and went to the alien museum. I really wanted to ride to area 51 but it was too far off track.
Some serious flaws in this story. One of them being he was an experienced adventurer who didn't calculate how much water he needed and he had no water while being surrounded by cactuses?
This could be an awesome slapstick movie following the officers who were almost definitely monitoring the guy who thought he actually snuck into Area 51, which quickly becomes a tense psychological horror when they're ordered to not intervene as the guy walks across a nuclear testing site and drinks water from a nuclear waste disposal facility.
I’d watch that
Art Bell, I used to live in Vegas and listened to him when he had his show downtown at the old Union Plaza... Before syndication. Those were fun days, good days. I miss those days.
Yep! I use to listen to him up in New York when I worked the midnight shift on wabc am radio but what use up piss me off was there was way to many commercials during coast to coast.
I started listening to Art in Northern California the late 1980s out of Reno and Las Vegas. I was a radio hobo going back to childhood. The radio hobo days are over now. Now we're all internet hobos. Back then, when you called in, your call went through the Union Plaza switchboard.
I had a 72 scamp and it only had an am radio. I listened to him before that but it was way more spooky at night in a 72 Plymouth scamp
@@no_peace nice
What a fabulous adventure. Had me gripped the entire time.
Just want to say I love the narrator. Every time he tells a story it's more intriguing and gives the story more of a goosebump
The narrator is an AI synthetic voice and not real.
Ok
Man I miss Art Bell. He was a true journalist.
Art is still on my friends list on fakebook.
I as well miss him. I feel bad for his new wife and children.
One of the last of a dead breed.
The very best!
Still my fb friend, too.
I moved to NV because of him and learned so much from the man!
Agreed 👍
Almost no journalist left worthy of the name just people expressing opinions.
It's weird how he first mentions he ditched all his gear so he can travel fast n light, but then when he gets " 100 feet away he sprints and jumps with all his gear"? I thought he got rid of his binoculars, phone, sleeping gear and whatever else he said? Little contradicting
Because he's lying
Ya never know with our Jerry.. He's a fukin lunatic...
@@sora2534 you're right, never said all his gear. However, the story did say, his water was depleted, phone was dead and he reluctantly ditched his $200 binoculars, he also ditched his phone, extra canteen, sleeping and cooking gear, extra clothes and provisions to get ready to travel light and fast. Dont get me wrong, I loved the story it had me at attention the whole way, I guess I'm just a realist and always have to debunk shit. Also if he left his phone, someone has to eventually find it, then will charge it, get it unlocked and then figure out who left it. Once that's figured out, theres no doubt in my mind he'd be taken out. Along with his brother. Since he was texting him during the mission. Even if they used coded text, they can see where the cellphone pinged off of which tower. Once they find what towers the brother used they can start narrowing the list down. Also they have the brothers number so they could also just check to see what name is on the phone account. But great story tho,! Very exciting. I think we all enjoy area 51 stories true or not, they all grip my attention senses.
@@Bleu-RosePack they already know who did it. He wrote a book about it. The story even says the airforce said they were disappointed that someone would do that
@@burtknighten1873 oh no shit?? That's pretty dope man, thanks for the info bro! Definitely makes it more intense and interesting
i say well done to the guy.
It's always good to learn and try to save history.
Great story, awesome narration. Thank you. 👍👍
