A Youtuber and his buddy were taken to the Slammer for going near Area 51.

Two Dutch companions said they simply needed a decent take a gander at the baffling Area 51 preceding leaving the US, yet they wound up in a Nevada prison.

The site is close to Area 51, which has been the focal point of paranoid ideas for a considerable length of time claiming the US government keeps proof about outsiders and UFOs there. Somebody as of late made a Facebook occasion page looking for individuals to storm the site this Friday.

In any case, the two men state never intended to take part in that. "We didn't have any intention to storm it because we leave on day before the actual storming dates, and we just wanted... to go there," Sweep revealed to CNN member KTNV. They simply needed to get a decent perspective on it, he said.

At the point when captured September 10, the two men told agents they could peruse, compose and communicate in English and had seen the 'No Trespassing' signs at the passage of the site. Be that as it may, they said they needed to investigate the office, police said.

They have furthermore surrendered the electronic gear found at the hour of their capture, Arabia said.

"It was important to us that these men serve jail time and pay a substantial financial penalty," he said. "We take this crime seriously. And people need to understand that we will not put up with this kind of nonsense."
