Strange Monolith Spotted Outside Las Vegas

Las Vegas got more than hot temps over the weekend. Las Vegas Metro Search and Rescue spotted this mysterious monolith just north of the city in Gass Peak. The Las Vegas Metro Police Department shared a video, writing, "We see a lot of weird things when people go hiking like not being prepared for the weather, not bringing enough water... but check this out!" Inside Edition Digital has more.

My goal in life is to have as much free time as the person/people that did this.

It’s art. An artist goes around putting these things in random places.

[listenup]

Somebody's out there laughing laughing at the ruckus they caused

[Step-go]

oh look mountains in vegas, lets hike the 200 degree weather and not die

Fake, so when a real one shows up we dismiss it.

[spearshaker]

Put a fake one up so nobody cares when the real one shows up.

[abrarmullan]

And there is always someone to notice it middle of nowhere.

Why is this reminding me of that thing from the beginning of 2001 a space odesy

[winstonc]

I find it so cute that people do this for the purpose of amusing the public, and not to mention the public’s reaction to it xD

[kurtkaster]

Why would so many people want to go see a piece of metal left in the desert? Because it's not shaped like a pop can or a wheel?

[easygoing]

You wanna see something alien? Go down to Eagle Pass, TX.

I think this explains why my next door neighbor has like 30 monoliths in his backyard.

[fredericklockard]

Wow. Must be aliens. There’s no way some prankster or YouTuber or whatever could have put it there.

[masterroshi]

Aliens also does welding, you can spot their work, it's very good.

[fransschreuders]

You sound like you're reporting from inside it

[steventrojanowski]

That’s amazing… I’m gunna go take a alien dump now

[ETHAN_YANG_Main]

After this, I bet the world is going to come back popping these

[theclassicunion]

It's like something out of 2001: a space odyssey

[Sxraj]

They’ve returned when we needed them the most 🗿

If Alien's came down and said "TAKE US TO YOUR LEADER" We would have to say "HE WANDERED OFF"
