Netflix’s collection from Trainwreck delves into some genuinely peculiar events, such as Balloon Boy, The Real Project X, and PI Moms, and now it’s narrating the tale of “the most remarkable piece of internet lore.
Wrapping up its series, “Trainwreck: Storm Area 51” is a freshly released documentary delving into the absurd incident that garnered global interest back in 2019.
In the trailer, the organizer admits, “I didn’t realize where it would lead,” but found the concept amusingly intriguing from the start.
Initially intended as a joke, the idea quickly escalated into something unmanageable. Thus, you might wonder if people actually rushed to Area 51. Keep reading to discover the truth.
What is Area 51?
The Area 51 you know is a top-secret military base run by the United States Air Force, nestled in the desert landscapes of Nevada. Over the years, it’s fueled plenty of intrigue surrounding unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and alleged advanced alien technology.
In 1955, the facility was set up with the purpose of aiding in the progression of the Lockheed U-2 aircraft, eventually evolving into a site where many of the most sophisticated and clandestine American aircraft were developed and tested, as per Space.com’s account.
Did people really ‘storm’ Area 51?
Back in 2019, I helped organize a Facebook event named “Storm Area 51, They Can’t Stop All of Us,” which was initiated by a young man named Matty Roberts at the time. The aim was to gather people interested in exploring the mysteries of Area 51, with the hope of uncovering evidence of extraterrestrial life.
Approximately two million individuals indicated their intent to attend, an event which subsequently garnered global interest, since Facebook users were invited to mimic the iconic “naruto dash” towards the venue.
“They can’t stop all of us,” the event description read.
As a movie buff penning my thoughts, I recall the intriguing news tidbit about a Facebook-fueled uproar urging a mass storming of Area 51. At that time, an Air Force representative filled me in on their awareness of this event, as shared with NPR.
The Nevada Test and Training Range offers a versatile, authentic, and multi-dimensional environment for testing and refining tactics, plus it serves as a venue for sophisticated military training aligned with U.S. national goals. Unauthorized intrusion into this space is strongly advised against.
As a dedicated movie buff, I was left in awe when only about 150 individuals turned up for the event, and not a single soul managed to breach the base’s gates. Quite an intriguing turn of events!
