the infamous November 1989 segment on Las

Vegas TV station KLAS which revealed the

existence of the clandestine military base.
According to Lazar, the decision to tell people

about Area 51 was primarily a matter of selfIMPORTANT: Some mobile

were in jeopardy, and he had stopped being
brought to Area 51 for work. In turn, he began to
fear that he would be killed in order to maintain the secrecy surrounding UFOs at the
base. As such, Lazar began telling friends about Area 51 and showed them UFO test

flights taking place there so that, should he mysteriously disappear, they would know why.

Regarding theories that Lazar's revelations about Area 51 were part of a

CIA
disinformation plot, he joked that "if that was the case, I'm owed an awful lot of back pay"
and declared that he'd "never participate in something like that." Huff observed that such a
plan seems highly illogical because it would make no sense for the government to suggest

that America possessed alien technology as a means of hiding secrets that would be
much less significant than that. Moreover, the duo noted that, if that was the plan, it was a
massive failure because Lazar's story led to Area 51 drawing global attention and even
caused the USSR to divert its spy satellites in an attempt to observe the location after
the
story went public.

"Even to this day, I still question whether or not it was a good idea to
release the
information," Lazar reflected on his decision to talk about
Area 51 and the aftermath of his
revelations. To that end, he lamented being seen as "Bob the UFO guy" in his professional
life and explained that this stigma is one reason why he has eschewed the ufological

community in the ensuing years since the story first became worldwide news. "At this time
in my life, I'd really prefer people don't believe it," he said about critics who dispute his
story, "because the last thing I want is somebody to verify everything I've been saying and
deal with the deluge of people and problems that would be associated with that."
Ultimately, he mused, "I really don't want this to go any further. It's been a big enough
headache."
