See what the U.S. Government and the military have left hidden at the bottom of Salton Sea and kept secret from the public since before World War II. Continuing after WWII with testing of atomic weapons shapes at the now abandoned Navy test base, up until the late 1980s while the U.S. military continued to test bombs - and continued live fire training at the navy base until the early 1990s. In this video we ask "Why hasn't the United States Military cleaned up the pollution and military hardware that they dumped into Salton Sea for almost 50 years?" - This documentary about Salton Sea also reveals what the U.S. government and military have left at the bottom of Salton Sea, California's largest lake.
Please see the ending-credits for sources of information presented in this Salton Sea documentary.
The views and assumptions expressed in this video are those of the producers and not of the Palm Springs Air Museum or any other organization.

@@redwhitebluefreedomjamesdy8080 He isn't kidding either. There are somethings best left in the past so the burden of that knowledge dies with him. Others, like my friends grandfathers words won't be shared until their deathbeds... He worked in greenland with usaf during the 60s and told us some unbelievable things, I'm not sure if what he said was truth or a narcotic induced delirium of a madman as he died of cancer. Either way his words, the look of fear, sincerity, and relief in his eyes were one of the most haunting memories of my early teens. 30 years later and its still the most mentally damaging thing I think I've had to deal with, especially when I come across things here on YT that mirror things he said triggering those memories. So yeah, be grateful hes a man of duty, honor, and his word. Not to many men like that left.

When the Salton Sea dries up, the radioactive dust from all those munitions will blow off the lake bottom, and follow the prevailing winds into populated areas. That is going to be more than a public relations nightmare. How ironic, that one of the communities on the shores of the Salton Sea is named "Bombay Beach."
@sydneysimon4999
@sydneysimon4999 3 года назад
The dust bowl winds traveled up to 2000 miles. The wind patterns in that region move upwards to the west coast and agricultural central/Bakersfield area. A potential cataclysmic event indeed. If we forget our history we are doomed to repeat it. Stupid beuracdocy stops immediate restoration projects. Many algae and fish are very tolerant and could potentially benefit the water.

While in the US Marine Corps, we used the Salton Sea as a training base back in the early 1980’s, conducting live fire exercises with being attacked by F-14’s and F-16’s dropping CS and CN bombs on top of us. It was a horrible place, flies that covered your face and hands plus the horrible smell of dead fish everywhere. Yet, I remember borrowing fishing from some fisherman to create booby traps with C-Rats cans of Spaghetti and heat tabs against the aggressor forces. Those guys were so angry, coming back from the field all covered in black flies from the exploding Spaghetti cans, lol. Oh, I would never want to ever go there ever again, it was simply Hell on Earth...

The Salton Sea is one of the most beautiful places I have visited. So unfortunate no one wants to take responsibility for it and do what is right. Most of it is a CA State Park, or other state and or federal property. A private property owner would be required to clean up their property. Perhaps, this and the work of others before you will bring this to the surface and they will have do something about it. Imagine all of the ag food that comes out of that area. People are eating it, breathing it, used to swim in it, ate fish from it...

I remember going to the Salton Sea back in the early '60s water skiing at Bombay Beach. Later in the '70s, it all unraveled, and the stench was horrible, dead fish all over the place, and it has been that way since, people had to flee the Sea because the topsoil was so toxic they were told to leave immediately, the wind that carried the dust was toxic and so people left with what they had on their backs and very little possessions. I wonder if the number of birth defects back then resulted from these bombs that were dropped. The gov. doesn't care; they do things like this and are never accountable for their misery on everyone affected.

Recently, state officials urged residents not to drink, swim , boil or come close to contact with the water after they reported finding an outbreak of toxic algae , after a dog swam in the water and died.

My grandfather used to take me camping there at Obsidian Buttes like 5 different trips. I learned how to shoot there. This place sits on an active volcano with boiling mud pits. There are Thermo power plants in the southeast side, and worst of all, sits right next to the San Andreas fault. Nuclear, Faultline, Volcanic activity? Not a great combination.

Many times my father in law tried to get me out there fishing....I’ve always enjoyed Malibu and Santa Monica for fishing never had the chance to go with him to Salton Sea and now I’m glad I didn’t. May he rest in peace and I wonder was his death caused by the fish he consumed from this body of water? Thanks for the info💯🙌🏽

There used to be LOTS and losts of fresh mountain water flow there and south of there, it had so much sea life, and water plain floods even with all the military disgusting waste, and before way before natives would allways fish and hunt agriculture there and south to the gulf. Most of the entire valley sits under sea level

Yeah, it happens, it comes with the job. If your an airforce pilot there is a risk of crashing and never being found again. Bermuda Triangle incident with flight 19 5 planes most likely crash landed in a swamp. History is full of men dying. Like the building of the Hoover Dam when over 96 people were killed.
