Good catch! By that point in the story I was already skimming from knowing the absolute bullshit he was pushing before.

They're not supposed to be true. If you go on the subreddit they have a rule to make sure they're fake stories

Obviously he was pulling shit out of his ass, that's the point or /r/nosleep. They're stories.

Note, I do believe that area 51 is basically a distraction, but what is said above is just fucking bullshit filled jargon.

It was actually a bit believable and very different from the usual nosleep, right up till hive 4 talk.

My disbelief climbed steadily then at hive 4 it shot through the roof. The whole thing is a little over done. Too many black helicopters.

The part about the radiation is just dumb though. Planes expose to radiation because of high altitude. Otherwise there is no radiation.

That's where the story lost credibility with me. No medical professional would subject someone to "routine" CT with such frequency 1/2

9 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

and without specific indications. The amount of ionizing radiation to which one would be exposed in a single CT maxes him out for a year2/3

especially given the amount of background radiation the author claims in this fictional facility.

A quick Google search shows that there is no recommended limit for ct scans and they produce less than 20-70 mGy each far below the 1/2
