Syria: Escalating bombardment has cost countless human lives transforming the streets into battlefields. Moving from place to place is a deadly act. Millions have already fled, desperate to survive. But 400,000 people remain trapped in eastern al-Ghouta. There is no way out. The Cave, captions, National Geographic 2020
‘The idea of moving underground was simple. As simple as the death lurking on the surface. The cause of that death is clear and simple too. As simple as the urge to survive. As a doctor I have witnessed many tragedies. So much suffering. So many lies. It made us search for a way to survive. ibid.

‘Let’s keep smiling for the children. That is the least we can do.’ ibid.

There are more rumours about top-secret underground bases than you can shake a banana at. Some of these bases allegedly contain alien beings. Richard D Hall, Richplanet online: underground bases
[He alleges] an underground base at a place called Peasemore. Essentially there are no access points visible at that base. They’re all several miles away at other bases. You’ve got Harwell which is about ten miles north of Peasemore, which is a base that we know of that has underground facilities, there’s Greenham Common that you mentioned, there’s another one – Welford to the south-west; to the north-west you’ve got Watchfield ... Rudloe Manor which is a base west of those bases is connected by some kind of underground tunnel to Boscombe Down which is connected to Porton Down … ibid.
Here’s a summary of likely locations of extraterrestrial underground bases around the world: Alaska, the north Pacific, New Mexico, West Virginia, Puerto Rico, the Gulf of Mexico, Costa Rica, Bolivia, the Uruguayan coast, the mid Pacific, Australia, Antarctic, Soviet Union. ibid.
We know that not far from Washington DC there are major underground facilities. There’s one in Virginia, in the Shenandoah Mountains ... Another command post in Colorado. And I would guess there are probably hundreds of these locations. Professor Allan Lichtman, American University
There’s a huge underground base out there. And that’s where they work with the aliens. As hard as it is to believe it’s true. There are aliens all over the place. John Lear
I killed two of them – yes, they are mortal and they do die ... Our United States Government lied – did not tell us anything – about the alien threat. There’s a war underneath there [the ground] ... Since then, the militaries of the world have been in constant conflict with the outer-space aliens. Philip Schneider, Preparedness Expo 1995, The Man That Killed Two Alien Greys
We came across a guy from Chelmsford called Barry King ... Lisa and Barry were coming up with the same basic data: very simply that in bases in this country in the United Kingdom there is an alarming and horrific set of experiments going on with Greys and Reptilian aliens, with the modification of human beings and the false abduction of human beings known as MILABs (military abductions). Miles Johnston, engineer & researcher & film-maker

Get below three hundred feet and almost all evidence of humanity disappears. No human being has ever been more than two and a half miles below the surface. ibid.
Three thousand miles below: a giant ball of solid metal. This is the inner core of the Earth. It’s almost as big as the moon, and it’s as hot as the surface of the sun. ibid.
Fourteen enormous slabs called tectonic plates. ibid.
There is more water held in underground aquifers like this than in all the lakes and rivers of the world. ibid.
San Francisco and Los Angeles sit on two separate tectonic plates either side of the San Andreas Fault. ibid.
When two tectonic plates collide solid land can buckle upwards. ibid.
If you could drive straight down, into a tunnel bored through the crust of the planet, you’d hit this molten mess in about an hour. It’s called the asthenosphere – a sluggish sea, several hundred miles thick, on which floats the Earth’s cool epidermis – the so-called tectonic plates. Seth Shostak
Earthquakes: The shockwaves of major earth waves radiate through the globe. Scientists have gained a form of X-Ray vision into the heart of the Earth by analyzing the speed at which they travel. And it’s revealed we aren’t simply living on one solid chunk of rock; the earth is made up of different layers. Horizon: The Core, BBC 2011
Bacteria flourish in other extreme environments too, miles underground and under crushing pressures on the ocean floor. Horizon: Curing Alzheimer’s, BBC 2016
I believe that the United Kingdom is one of the most underground places on the planet, and that particularly central Scotland – central Scotland – has got some of the most untalked-about cavern systems on the planet. Andrew Hennessey, author The Mystery of Stargate Edinburgh
According to most archaeologists and scholars Derainkuyu [Turkey] was built around 800 B.C. by the Phrygians ... Others believe it was built by the Hittites, a warrior people mentioned in the Bible who flourished hundreds of years earlier. But could the underground city be even older?

August 5th 2010: The Atacama Desert in northern Chile is shaken by one of the worst accidents in mining history. 33 miners are buried under some 800,000 tons of rock.
