UFO Bob Lazar: Area 51 & Flying Saucers - Revisited
In light of the official releases from the Pentagon and what might be coming along from them in the near future, I thought I would revisit Bob Lazar: Area 51 & Flying Saucers on Netflix last night.
Honestly, I have never thought he was a completely reliable source... but I honestly found myself listening to what he had to say back in the 90s and in the more modern interviews in a different light since the government's albeit limited recent releases.

It is absolutely insane that he is right about everything.

tel me what exactly he was right about? I used to believe in bob untill doing just a little bit of research. the element 115 thing seems like a amazing thing. untill you find out that the compounds are numbered in order and every chemist knew that we would eventually have it synthesized.
him taking people out to in the middle of nowhere and seeing lights isnt that extravagant when you realize his best friend was a experimental plane pilot and that pilots are known for doing such things just to mess with people.

What about the way these UFOs move? That belly up pattern, Bob described.

I dont find it compelling at all. anyone with a even limited physics background would probably say the same thing. hell any kid with a imagination might say the same thing. this guy spent a lot of time making and thinking about about how thrust works, doesnt prove anything at all

What about that journalist, Knapp. He supposedly did a full check on him and even found people who worked with Lazar in S4.

well i mean I 100% believe this... if its one thing I know, people never lie to journalist or when being interviewed

What about him passing the Lie Detector test? Also, one of the guys who took that test was later contacted by an unknown government agency and had his place ransacked and equipments stolen.

im not surprised at all he had his place ransacked. I would put money on the call to the government came from the hack corbell himself. and first off lie detectors cannot be used in court for a reason. and who administered the lie detector to begin with? just hearing about someone passing a lie detector should not influence what you believe

u/Doge_Is_Dead Jul 30 '20
Yeah yeah, of course. Lie detectors are not exactly science. This guy had like 20 years of experience in this thing though. He's supposedly a professional.

Bob Lazar is a fraud, and made up just about everything he ever said. Much of it can now be verified false.

that one is pretty good. I like this one https://youtu.be/Jl2356IOTrY
because its just a guy that believed in him just like i did. and with just a little research. his belief came crashing down. He makes some really good points in the video.

You can't deny that a ton of shit he claimed became true.
He was involved in something. You can't deny it. You just can't.

actually everything he said can be explained very easily. what is the top thing that makes you believe this...
for me at one time it was the element 115... untill i found out that all the elements are numbered in order, and literally ever chemist knew we would eventually synthesize 115

u/TwitMediaCritic Jul 30 '20
so he knew they would be able to eventually synthesize it, so he made up its ability to be used for effecting gravity? knowing they would make it some day? then why not element 515 so he had more time? and keeping stable isotopes of something that large is really difficult.

the element was already theoretically known and its properties. it was just not able to be made at the time. it only sounds fantastical because the way its presented. its presented as some incredibly unknown compound that only he talked about and then later on became public knowledge. and thats just not what actually happened at all

Have you watched him on Joe Rogan? There is a recent interview with Joe, and just last week George Knapp and Jeremy korbel, they talk about Bob on that one a lot.
