HAIR-RAISING footage shows adventure bikers held at gunpoint by guards near the Area 51 site.

“Aggressive” armed gunmen confront the motorcyclists when they get too close to the infamous military base....

The Sun don't half enjoy it's purple prose.

Hair raising? Perfectly normal response in my opinion. Stop them, check them out, tell them to piss off.  :shrug:

I'm actually surprised the guards let them leave with the gopros they were wearing. Almost like they wanted the footage to come out...

..kind of a... hey, don't forget we are still here folks, it is getting lonely out here in the desert.

I think it would be funny to get as close as they allow and open a lemonade stand.

Again, pretty standard.

They simply couldn't have recorded anything more exciting than dust and rocks, so why go to all the hassle of taking away the bikers toys and causing a huge fuss? It's not like the riders were inside the perimeter.

National secrets, they way they're supposed to (to be contrasted with a certain individual who basically served up national secrets to the Russians on her roll-your-own mail server).

Had the same reaction as all of you. It's just DM typically exaggerating nothing into something.

BTW, the same or more would happen to these gits if they tried to 'sneak in the back door' of any government installation or base, anywhere. Especially if it is an airfield.

The "story" and every thing about it is total nonsense.

I've seen more than this on any highway just for getting pulled over for speeding.

If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Very true.  The shock isn't that they were handled in this way, the shock would be if they weren't.

When I was in Grad School in Grand Forks, there were a couple of guys who had been drinking a little and decided they wanted to see a missile silo up close. The choppers set down, security team got out and those boys had a very bad weekend answering questions...

It happened every three or four years, and about the time the story faded some other idiot(s) would try it.

If you're security, and you get a rep for being a little bit of a badass, it keeps the lightweights away.

They do this here at the INL. Get on any of their designated territory and they will remove you. Everyone living around here knows this. Back when I was an engineering student we went on a tour of the LOFT (Loss Of Fluid Test) facility. They had a running reactor. It had view ports in the top. You could stand on it and gaze down into that amazing blue 'ell.
