00:00Drones. They deliver our pizza. They give divorced dads something to do with their kids
00:06on weekends. And now they make us shut down our Air Force bases!
00:11So the mystery drones in the Northeast continue.
00:14Oh, I'm so obsessed.
00:16We got some audio from Ohio Wright Patterson Air Force Base in which they had to close
00:21the airfield for about an hour because of heavy drone activitia. Or activia. Activia?
00:27No, activia is for bowels.
00:30Thinking means activity, but activia can help keep you regular, yes.
00:34Regardless, the Air Force base was shut down for four hours because they spotted UASs,
00:40aka Unmanned Aircraft Systems.
00:44Use extreme caution for heavy UAS movement on the base. Security forces is handling the
00:50situation. Patterson Class Delta is now closed for heavy UAS activity.
00:54Now they're in Ohio?
00:55Huh?
00:56They were New Jersey, now Ohio?
00:58This is really scary.
00:59I mean, they're clearly, they're becoming a menace.
01:01You can do really dangerous things with drones.
01:03True, but we don't know where the drones come from, so let's not start screaming it's the
01:08government or whatever.
01:09It's gotta be the government.
01:10It's gotta be the government!
01:11That's definitely what it is.
01:12Come on!
01:13It's gotta be the government.
01:14In any case, at least we're pretty sure these drones are man-made.
01:16So we don't think that they're aliens.
01:19Now nobody's saying aliens this time.
01:20I don't think aliens are, I'm from New Jersey, you don't fly from like light years away to
01:25go to New Jersey, so.
01:26Right.
01:27You do if you want the best pizza this side of the GW Bridge.
01:32My world!
01:33So, thanks drones, you utterly terrify us.
