A joke event posted on Facebook on June 27 got out of hand when millions of people signed up to \u2018raid Area 51\u2019 to see aliens. And despite being obviously comedic with its description that encouraged participants to \u201cNaruto run\u201d past military bullets, some people actually decided to show up in Nevada on September 20 where the military base is located. During the latest episode of Meme Review, PewDiePie gave his take on the whole event, as he reacted to memes that made fun of the raid and the people that actually turned up to storm the facility. Area 51 raid still \u201can absolute win\u201d After setting the stage by explaining what the event was and the fact that millions of people claimed they were going to attend, the YouTuber said \u201cThis was expectation, and this is reality\u201d as he reacted to the news that only a select few actually showed up Read More: Top 10 PewDiePie Minecraft moments so far &#8211; He then watched the infamous \u2018Naruto runner\u2019 clip which featurs a man who showed up for the raid, and ran behind a news anchor reporting on the scene like the anime character. \u201cWell, what actually happened was one guy\u2026\u201d he started before he broke into laughter, trying to spin the news into a positive event. \u201cNaruto ran in front of a news guy, and I see this as an absolute win!\u201d (Timestamp of 01:05 for mobile viewers.) Despite many memes poking fun of the people that actually showed up in the desert, PewDiePie was a little bit more kind to some of them, when he reacted to a meme that said that anyone who showed up is a \u201cfucking legend\u201d. \u201cI kind of have to agree. Like, well done\u201d Pewds said, admiring those that went to great lengths to keep a ridiculous meme going. \u201cAlthough if you live in Nevada you are not a legend. You\u2019re just a local, let\u2019s get real here.\u201d PewDiePie\u2019s final thoughts on Area 51 raid When another meme pointed out that people shouldn\u2019t be mad that the raid wasn\u2019t successful, the Swede interjected and laughed \u201cWait what did people think a successful raid would be? There wasn\u2019t actually alien girls with alien pussy!\u201d Read More: Who is Amouranth? The risqu\u00e9 Twitch streamer &#8211; The YouTube king then broke down his final thoughts on the Area 51 raid as a meme. \u201cIt definitely helped the fact that it had a deadline. Because all memes are just dead after a week. But thanks to the Facebook event, it had a pretty good longevity. It had a pretty good run. I\u2019m happy with it. There was a good meme for once!\u201d (Timestamp of 01:50 for mobile viewers.) While no aliens were seen, at least no one that showed up the desert managed to get hurt. And as the Swede said, the internet got some funny memes out of it.
