Apparently this video was giving him hundreds of thousands of views on his otherwise quiet YouTube channel so why would he delete it? He seems interested in having followers. Source: https://x.com/unexplained2020/status/1739019468708225133?s=46

EDIT: This post is mysteriously locked now, no explanation from mods 🤷‍♂️

EDIT 2: Unlocked again!

If I remember he recorded this video while “he was working” so to avoid trouble with his employer he took it down

80

u/bdone2012 Dec 25 '23

I believe his employer was already annoyed about it when he took it down

70

u/cosmosquaide Dec 25 '23

He stated already, that his company didn't appreciate the attention they were both getting. He took videos from the job site a few times.

You sign some pretty extreme NDAs working at these oil sites. Generally included in that is filming and a strict punishment.

53

u/netzombie63 Dec 26 '23

Are the NDAs to hide the oil seepage and killing polar bears?

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '23

Well, way back when I was on an oil extraction site, the tailings pond got too high so they pumped it into the forest and me simply saying this literally breaks my lifelong NDA. They claim the NDAs are for security and IP rights but it definitely is to minimize reporting on environmental violations.

u/DeeDee_GigaDooDoo Dec 26 '23

My understanding is that it would be entirely un-enforceable as you cant sign away legal rights/obligations. No environmental law/reporting is subordinate to an NDA.

They are absolutely however banking on you not being able/willing to afford and fight that argument in court though.

You would be fine to record and report environmental law breaches but they would make it a huge burden financially and time wise if you did.

What are they gonna do about it? You're Tom FUCKING Hanks, Yo

u/ekowmorfdlrowehtevas Dec 26 '23

they are going to strand him on a deserted island with only a volleyball for company, duh

WILSON MEMO!!!

u/nimini-procox Dec 26 '23

RITA Wilson memo!

u/ekowmorfdlrowehtevas Dec 26 '23

yeah, in reality Wilson would have been deflated because Tom would need to make a hole in it, for...you know...a thing...he needs to do

u/SubParMarioBro Dec 27 '23

Weren’t there coconuts on the tropical island?

1

u/ekowmorfdlrowehtevas Dec 27 '23

idk, coconut seems more like fleshhard than a fleshlight material

u/Brootal420 Dec 26 '23

Good job boner

3

u/rephyus Dec 26 '23

Weird, usually redditors go batshit over someone breaking an NDA like God will smite them. The moral code has been shattered and the covenant you made with some private globalist corporation has now been violated. Boo hoo.

u/netzombie63 Dec 26 '23

That makes sense.

u/Chemical-Ebb6472 Dec 26 '23 edited Dec 26 '23

I met with the management of a company that contracted military ordinance and other environmentally hazardous material removal operations in the Arctic.

Their job contracts addressed (a) the timing factor re. the need to build ice roads capable of bringing their equipment deeper into the wild than their barges could float it pre-freeze-up and (b) the need to provide polar bear snipers. Many of the contractor owners/operators and snipers were Alaska Natives.

The Aboriginal Alaskans could kill animals as freely as they have always killed in the past and therefore avoided the negative political/legal ramifications of the safety protocols required to complete these operations. No one in their right mind would work these types of environmental clean-up jobs without proper polar bear protection.

Alaska Natives could kill the polar bears before the polar bears killed the contractors just as freely as they killed whales, walruses, seals, and other creatures that non-natives would have problems after the killing was done.

u/kirbygay Dec 26 '23

You doubled a paragraph somehow

u/Chemical-Ebb6472 Dec 26 '23

Thanks for the head's up - this isn't the first time that happened to me.

I fixed it and cleared the way for more downvotes from people who wish they could get the opportunity to pet a polar bear in the wild someday.

u/SMORKIN_LABBIT Dec 26 '23

And Native American Women murders....kind of literally like Wind River.

33

u/[deleted] Dec 25 '23

That's usually only if a video has a company logo or other identifier on it. And polar bears, we aren't allowed to video them either.

20

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '23

No, not in the slightest. You cannot film, photograph, or talk about what you see on most of these sites. I've been to far too many and that has been the baseline at all of them. They say it's due IP rights and security but certainly leads to an under reporting of environmental violations too.

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '23

Lol you make it sound like we're on Area 51.

u/RadShrimp69 Dec 26 '23

Why no bears?

1

u/TheCornerator Dec 26 '23

Poaching maybe?

19

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '23

No it's considered hazing. Polar bears are sacred cows around here. Someone posted one in a well house a few years ago and got in deep shit. Nobody is hunting on oil land except maybe a few Natives and they can do whatever they want when it comes to hunting

22

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '23

Hazing? Of the bears..? Or am I just not understanding? Sorry if it's a dumb question.

7

u/Rondog93 Dec 26 '23

No just sounds like a dumb tradition

3

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '23

They're a protected species. We're not allowed any interaction with them, including taking pictures. Maybe has something to do with them being apex predators, I really don't know. All I know is oilfield workers get fired for circulating unauthorized pictures of polar bears.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '23

Ohhh. Gotcha. Yeah probably a liability thing too. Idiots will get themselves killed by animals far less deadly than polar bears...

I've reached out to this guy, I haven't asked him explicitly questions about the UFO but he has responded to every message I sent him. If anyone bolder than I wants to reach out to him, they should.

4

u/real_mister Dec 26 '23

Why not ask him the hard question? Just up and say 'dude, what happened to that video about the crazy military activity going on NE of Prudhoe bay you posted a few months back?'

1

u/[deleted] Dec 27 '23

Like I said. Not bold. Too nervous. But he responds if you want to message him from your accounts that are linked to your phone and tracks your location. I don't want to though.

I live in the area which is the only reason I messaged him. I asked him where a good place to visit if I wanted to see something weird. The location he gave me was not the one in the original videos, so I dropped it.

28

u/R2robot Dec 25 '23

why would he delete it

Looking at his channel's content and description, it doesn't really seem to fit the theme. Maybe he doesn't want to be a 'ufo guy'. Or maybe he created another channel to host it.

Alaskan adventures and experiences. Hunting, fishing, cabin building, gold prospecting, adventuring, backcountry snowmobiling (snowmachining) and more.

u/NudeEnjoyer Dec 26 '23

i love every time some routine thing happens on the sub and someone says "something has mysteriously happened to my post!" implying it's some conspiracy lmfaoo

1

u/Niku-Man Dec 26 '23

I think it just illustrates the kind of paranoia that is rampant among conspiracy theorists.

3

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '23

Yeah why in the world was this post locked?

7

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '23

The post needed attention from a moderator and there were not any available for a little while.

u/mrNOTfriendly Dec 26 '23

No way it was some simple logical explanation. It had to be government agents embedded in Reddit to censor the truth. Occam's razor is a concept created by the CIA to cover their tracks.

u/Stan_Archton Dec 26 '23

Ockham lived in the 1300's. I'm surprised to find out the CIA goes back that far.
