MrBeast and his crew spend 24 hours camping near Area 51 in Nevada, setting up an RV, joking about the September 20 raid meme, and trying to spot inside the base with a telescope. They encounter sniper-guarded trucks and surveillance equipment while riffing on aliens and climbing a mountain for a better view.
Chapters
We spent 24 hours in the middle of the desert next to Area 51, the most secretive government facility in the country, because we wanted to scope things out before the massive raid on September 20th. But things didn't go so smooth. So we're trying to spend 24 hours in Area 51 and there's a sniper in a truck looking at us. Where's he at, buddy? Where you at, buddy? I found him. So as we stated, this entrance into Area 51 has a creepy white truck with a sniper and no gate, which isn't very appealing. So we're gonna to go to a different side of Area 51, and hopefully there's not a sniper. That line over there is the line we're not allowed to cross. I have an alien here. He said his brothers were in there, but screw your brothers.
Come on, buddy, let's go.
Okay, you have fun chilling.
See you in 6 months and $1,000 later.
This dirt road right here actually leads to the back gate of Area 51, so we're going to give this road a try. It literally goes on forever. How much gas do we have, Connor?
Half a tank.
Don't let us get stranded. Unless we find a UFO, then it's okay. Guys, we have an alien deer! So we're on the border of Area 51 and we can't tell if that's an antelope or an alien that escaped.
It literally looks like an alien.
It is an alien.
He's looking right at us.
Come here, my brother, we'll take you back to Mars.
Dude, look at those surveillance things up there.
Those are turrets.
You guys ready?
Those are turrets.
Oh boy, Big Red's leading the way.
We're literally within 100 We're 100 feet of Area 51 and we see an alien already. Can we go up here? I wanna see my alien friend. He's climbing on top of the RV. Look at Chris.
Chris is like, "I wanna go." You can see the alien butt slowly wandering. That is Area 51.
There's literally a giant artillery cannon over there that could destroy a freaking planet.
Why don't you stay up there with the binoculars?
That would be suspicious as hell.
That would be quite suspicious.
I think we're past that. So this is the back entrance of Area 51. We're really out here. No harm.
We're friendly.
We just came to see our brethren. Can we talk about that gate real quick? Look at that.
Do not go into Area 51. Don't get near Area 51. We're trained professionals.
And alien Scientology.
I watch the History Channel.
What turned the camera? Turn towards me. Oh dude, wait, what? Yeah, so Chris is walking to the right. Let's see if it turns. It just did, bro. They're just like staying on me. They didn't even care for Chris.
Remember, the government does not want to kill us.
Maybe.
That was the most nervous laugh I have ever heard. So that's Area 51. That mountain right there is where all the Naruto runners are gonna get together and storm it.
We are where the Kyles are. The Kyles are gonna berserk right through the middle.
The Kyles are sacrifices.
I'm with the crackheads.
I don't think you can—
Yeah, but the crackheads are over there. The horses are always in the back. So the Kyles proceed from here, the crackheads over there, and then we hit them with the side assault from the Naruto runners.
Did you bring your bed? So that way you can put your bed down and respawn right near here.
That's why we got an RV, man.
Oh, that's right. It's got all the beds in it.
Yeah, so if anything happens, guys, make sure you sleep in the bed so you respawn there.
All right, I'm going to go for my first life.
If you're going to camp, you got to set up a camp. So let's set up a camp.
Hey, Area 51, y'all mind if we camp out over here? I didn't hear no, let's do it. Look over there if we can't camp. Don't point, Jake. Put your hand down.
No fast movements, no pointing.
Chandler, stop moving. They might interpret that as assault. Take your hands out of your pockets. They might think you're—
Put your hands in the air.
We have exactly 30 days until the Naruto runners, all 1.7 million, arrive. And yet I don't see a single soul here.
They're not prepared like us.
I know, we're practicing for the siege.
Yeah, they'd only be worried if we were Kyles. Since we're Naruto runners, they're not worried.
Down there, don't go in.
Landmines here.
Wait, guys, guys, wait, what is that? Is that—
oh wait, who is that?
Oh my God, who's that? Oh boy.
Uh-oh.
Oh boy, Taylor, this is not the time to be texting. Someone's coming for us. Hey, hey, what's going on, man? Just checking out. Do you guys work for the government or are you just checking it out? We're looking for the black mailbox.
Are you guys gonna be Naruto running?
Well, that's the plan on September. So you're just scouting it out? That's why we're here, we're scouting it out. Yeah, I'm not included here. I'm supposed to be sitting in my house in Vegas. They just dragged me all the way here. Since you're up to date on the memes, do you think It's a good idea to have the Naruto runners come from the right side and the left side, or should they all just come down the middle? Let's check it out. This is it.
This is the one. If you go past that stop sign, a bunch of armored cars are going to eventually meet you. I mean, give it a shot if you don't believe us.
Just run. Yeah, come on, man. I'm the guinea pig now.
Just dip in, dip out real quick. 5 seconds.
Guys, we don't have the 1.7 million Naruto runners yet.
We can do it. Just us.
We saw a rainbow and we found an alien on its escape.
It was a double rainbow.
It was huge. It was giant, dude.
This would be a good spot to camp out.
Right here?
Yeah.
No, our friends left us.
Can I keep this?
They didn't even say bye. What the hell? Girls that I didn't learn name of. Can I keep this? I have a number behind my back. It's between 1 and 2. What is it?
It was 2.
You can keep it.
Sweet. Oh yeah, this is a UFO part, guys.
Let's examine it. Do you think it's part of a UFO?
Well, what else would it be a part of? Anything else?
No.
Well, we can't identify it.
And if you throw it in the air, it definitely will be an unidentified flying object. So let's test it. Let's test it. Did you see that on the sonar's face?
Did it hit you in the face, buddy?
Yeah. And I'm probably going to need a tetanus shot now. Can we book me a tetanus shot?
Chandler, I hear they have Band-Aids. Go knock on the door. Okay.
Maybe that's why nobody's ever got in. They've never asked politely.
Yeah, they just run in. Maybe the secret to getting in Area 51 is knocking politely.
Chandler, just go knock on that stop sign. You won't.
That's what I'm about to do. He just told me to.
You won't.
I gotta ask for Band-Aids. Oh, it says 1 year of jail.
The Lord of the Rings eye is staring at you, literally directly at you. I see you. Did you knock? Chandler, stop Fortnite dancing on the government. The all-seeing eye is now pointed at me. Right in the government's face. Take that, Trump.
We setting up the tents or what?
Yeah, let's do it, boys.
Oh, there's a car.
Oh, oh, it's booking too, and it's got LEDs.
Oh my gosh. Oh gosh.
Oh gosh.
There's another car too.
I just got really cold.
Everybody act natural.
Everyone, don't panic. Don't yell.
Why would you yell? Oh, it's a Jeep.
I came inside to hide. Did you come here just for this?
Yeah, I mean, he's got a pretty awesome vehicle. I feel like this and our red Jeep, we could just storm there right now.
Let us know if you get any more information we can use to help spread to the fellow Naruto runners. I've been practicing with my arms back. It's harder than it looks.
You get used to it. You get your center of gravity right, and then you can go as fast as the bullets. We're gonna camp out, so—
oh, thank you!
Now we can see really well. Thank you, government.
I just, I I'd like to see something.
You might be seeing something any second now.
All right, can we leave? That's not a good sound. Oh no, is that it up there or is that a star?
That blinking light, that's actually creepy. All right, let's camp. This is perfect.
Very scary.
This is perfect. They turned on lights for us. This is YouTube friendly.
They turned on lights and they sent a Harrier to come say hi. Well, look, Oh, rabbit! Jake, go catch it! That might be an escaped alien. Bunny, no!
Bunny, is he going in there?
Dude, he's right there.
There's a car, there's a car.
Oh my God, oh, there, there's sirens too.
No, the rabbit's about to cross! Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit, rabbit! If you go any further, you will spend a year in jail.
Do you have so much to live for?
He's literally sitting under it.
September 20th, man, hold off, hold off for the reinforcements, rabbit. Oh, he's going in, he's going in!
Well, if he's okay.
What is that flashing alarm? There's cars and everything moving towards it. Run!
Wow, did you guys hear that? There's a surveillance frog out here.
Can you let me in so I can call my mom, tell her I made it alive?
And he hit the whoa. Hit the whoa in front of Area 51.
Quit dancing on the gov.
You guys seeing stuff? Oh wow, dude, you can actually like see, see. That thing's impressive.
What? Whoa, how, how is this so clear?
Dude, in 5 years they're going to like sell tickets to go look at this crap.
Imagine in like 3,000 years where this is declassified and it's just—
that scared the shit out of me, bro.
That scared the Someone turn on some car lights. Chris, grab me.
There's got to be a reason why they turned them off, right?
I bet they saw the scope.
Oh, they probably saw the scope.
Dude, if I brought my big truck out here—
should I go get it?
It lights everything up. I think that it'd make them worried. It looks like a SWAT truck. All right, yeah, go get it. We'll be waiting here. So we called a high council meeting in the RV real quick.
This guy may or may not want to rob us.
Yes, you invited him.
I did. That was a lapse in judgment. I'm sorry, can't take that back now. We just gotta do it.
We need to make the decision, boys. Do we stay here and potentially all get ex-nade? Chandler, you make the decision.
Let's just—
Chandler, our lives are in your hands. We could go to a nearby mountain. There's one right there. We have a telescope. We can climb the mountain and see if we can telescope in, if that's what you want.
It's not what I want. I want to see some cars pull up and be like, yo, what the fuck are you doing here? And I'm going to be like, Chandler has spoken, we're staying.
Right there is Area 51. As you can see, Chandler, don't point the light at it. Right here is our tents. We're going to spend the night right outside of Area 51. We're going to see if they're sneaking any aliens in and out. We're going to keep you guys updated.
I'm an alien.
I'm not. Maybe.
We brought over a dozen people. They're going to be Did you hear a noise over there? Who's there? You guys know where I can go? It's that way, right there. 10 more steps.
Thanks, dude.
All right, who's that guy? Anyways, we'll let you guys know if we see any aliens. We're gonna be here. We got people patrolling. We're good.
All right, guys, it's nighttime at Area 51. We're camped out here. This is my last message to my family if I don't make it back. I love you. And bye.
Alright guys, I'm heading to bed. Hopefully an alien doesn't eat me tonight. You said an alien?
That's just Chris with fruit fly eyes.
Me and my girl Alienetta, we're about to go to bed. Really tired. Hopefully nobody comes and tries and takes her. There were no cat girls, but I did find me an alien girlfriend, so peace.
Hey guys, I switched shirts. You should go buy it.
Bye.
But anyways, it's 4:30 in the morning and there's actually a mountain over there, and we want to go climb that mountain so we can see what's inside of Area 51. The only thing is this mountain takes forever to climb, so we got to get up really early. It's 4:30 and go climb it now so we have enough time to do it within the 24 hours. Chandler, it's 4:30. Let's go climb the mountain.
Where are we?
Area 51. Oh yeah, okay, let's do it. So they turned the lights back on and they're way brighter now. All right, let's go say goodbye.
Nice.
Oh my God, there's broccoli on the ground. Someone was here.
So as you can see, it's 4:41 in the morning. Right over there is a mountain. We're going to go try to climb the mountain. We have a telescope and want to see if we can see inside. We're going to go do that. Okay.
Ah, alright.
To the mountain. So you see those mountains all the way over there? Yeah. We're going to go climb them and we have a telescope and we're going to see if we can see inside of Area 51. We literally rented an off-roading Jeep. So we could use it to climb up that mountain. So this should be a success.
What a great way to spend your money, just on a Jeep to spy in Area 51.
We're continuing our journey.
Ow!
I hit a tree. Chandler almost lost his head.
Sorry, GoPro.
That's what we're climbing, because if we get up there with the telescope, we can look into Area 51 over there. Your calves may hurt. You want to know what hurts more? Not knowing about the existence of aliens.
I'll just believe whatever the government tells me.
No, we will see the UFOs.
How do I get roped into these things?
Chandler, we will find this UFO. Let's go. Hello, YouTubers. That do this in Minecraft and make more money than we do.
Can we climb this mountain in creative mode? Oh, this is sheer.
This is sheer. Oh, oh Lord.
Oh my goodness gracious.
Do you want to just become Fortnite YouTubers?
Dude, let's just do it. Look, I'm flossing. Beautiful.
Where's Area 51? It's gotta be that way. That way?
Oh! I saw it out of the corner of my eye. I thought it was a snake. We gotta get Madame Theroni up the mountain!
That's a Holes reference.
Are you a meme lord, Chris?
I am very much.
Think of all the gosh darn memes that'll be created when you discover aliens.
Yo, there's a burger up here. It's wrapped in tin foil. It's still good.
Whoa, look at that.
We can see for literal miles. Dude, they're really good at keeping the aliens from us.
As you guys can see, They have a watchtower over there with cameras on it keeping an eye on us. They know we're spying. Means we're in the right spot, boys. You actually see something?
Oh my God, you see it?
That's— we found it.
That's very hard.
Let me see this. Isn't it crazy that all that empty space and all these mountains are here just to shield that one little base? What? What is there? September 20th, we get our answers, boys. And there you have it, guys. That's enough spying on Area 51 for today. I hope you enjoyed, and remember, September 20th.
Mr. B6000, oh, oh. Mr. B6000, oh, oh. Mr. B6000, yeah.
