How Did a 12-Foot-Tall Silver Monolith End Up in the Desert?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- A helicopter pilot in a remote part of Utah found an inexplicable metal monolith protruding from the ground in the desert. The monolith is estimated at between 10 feet and 12 feet high and appeared to be planted in the ground. It was made from some sort of metal, its shine in sharp contrast to the enormous red rocks which surrounded it. After the pilot found the strange object, Utah’s highway patrol shared images of the monolith in the area on Instagram. But what is the strange sculpture? #InsideEdition
I'm pretty sure whoever made it is getting a kick out of it right now.
Ye you can see the rivets in it
Ya the aliens
Ikr”they finally found it”
Or it’s the person who found it. I gather a helicopter could do the job just fine.
that's right
Once it appears on the moon its over
It's 2020, anything is possible!
Even magic!

It's a save point. Obviously.
No I believe it’s where I died and my loot might be under there, care full with my ‘trap after death’ when you pick it up
Your profile picture matches with your comment perfectly.
@@Rekter Agreed.
Uncharted save point
😆 😆 yep! Good comment.
Someone with a lot of money just laughing at this guy saying this is a alien form of life
😂😂
Elon musk 😂😂
Lol
Can’t wait till i see a youtube video called “we pranked the whole world by placing a solid steel block in the desert!!!??”
lmao yeah that would be epic
it is not even a solid steel block, its 3 pieces of sheetmetal with rivets in it....so its a cheapo "column"...not even a colomn, and deffinitively not a monolith...they could have atleast done it in concreet ;) ...but did not, so its a cheapo distraction
It’s a federal crime to put that there so I don’t think anyone would do it
@@marcelgomesjr.6322 well they left their trash ther metal plates with rivets....to begin with ;)
WATCH IT BE TGFBRO😂🤣
This is probably the most normal thing we seen all year
But it could turn out to be something bigger
Lmao 😂
@@fuertesfj1 Where is the cocainer
🤣🤣This year has never been normal in any way. This fits right in. The dirt around this monolith is solid, which means it could have been here for years, not recently buried.
Yup
Lol 2020 is a year of anything.
Next thing you know a time traveler appears

Nah I'm eating doritos
It was a girl that made it
@@laker4life36 How would you know? It could be a man could be a woman or could be something else, for all you know it could be a chimp? Or it could be aliens

He’s British.....

That looks like a very labor-intensive and expensive prank. Someone is having some fun watching the reactions. Someone with too much money and not enough good sense.
Seems logical
So it was Jake Paul
Someone has a very good sense of humor.
Anybody with any sense would realize it's probably not just a prank. Not saying it's anything paranormal, but I'm sure there is a reason it's there
It was aliens
Answer: Some of those 2001 Odessey fans decided to do this to created mystery
Wym
It's a movie
It’s not the same as the monolith in space odyssey
I was hoping id not have to scroll down very far in the comments to get a Kubrik reference! :).
for the rest
google "Stanley Kubrick 2001 space odyssey," its the first/opening scene of the movie.
the footage of the Utah monolith is very similar.
blame it on the ROnA.

Plot twist: the helicopter crew put it there themselves and made the story up for attention.

@@TheHypnotstCollector You have a very creative mind, but you're wrong. Clearly it was put there by Scientologist.

they saw the leader of the free world and go. ima head out
short answer, someone put it there
long answer, someone put it there
you put it there. i am coming after u
The question everyone wants to know who
Or, and hear me out, rivets occur in nature.
Why though? They said it was remote and bringing a 12 foot beam in the middle of no where is expensive, who ever did this had alot of pocket change.
@@Gekumatz would it really be that expensive? I mean the helicopter pilot found it by accident, another helicopter could have quite easily dropped it off.
Of course “authorities” won’t reveal the location.
It's attached to bidens basement it's the you know thing that he's been talking about .
They should, it’s not like it needs to be a protected Piece, or is Important. Lol, not like people will fly their just to see the piece of Metal
Too late, it’s been found by others now 😂
its aliens
there was a video on tik tok revealing the location

Ok rivet man. . .point to shot of rivots. Rivots omg. Do you know what a rivet is?
@Tom He's not joking. Of course, they could just be screws. And just a tiny bit of research on your part would have found the video that shows close ups and the clearly visible fasteners. Start with the video from ABC News.
Can you LIKE, BASICALLY, LITERALLY prove it?
i dont get it why dont they just open the damn monolith
Looks like rivets to me

Government will take back to a lab and replace it with a replica. After they perform tests on it. Thats exactly what they do with these things. Ancient or not
In the other news channel on youtube said it was because it was federal property and would affect the enviroment
So how they found it

maybe, could be a bunch of people, but that would've been noticed just driving there, plus its remote so its extremely hard to get there, including the fact of its size and weight. I don't know, maybe its something to do with spaceforce, or maybe it rose from the ground, but it looks to clean? even the ground looks untouched.
