think about trying to break into these
spots welcome to watchmojo.com and today
we’re counting down our picks for the
top 10 most guarded places on earth for
this list will be ranking the most
heavily guarded and secured spots in the
world
so after 9/11 fort dots went into
serious lockdown
and as you know to this day you can no
longer stand out on the street take
pictures these guys take security very
seriously
we’ll be excluding prisons however as
these places are expected to keep
certain people in and the rest of the
world out this is the most secretive
prison in America no one is allowed
inside and the only pictures we have are
from federal law suits number 10 the
Cheyenne Mountain complex formidable
granite walls housed the Cheyenne
Mountain complex located on the grounds
of the Cheyenne Mountain Air Force
Station in Colorado Springs Colorado
the complex has housed a number of
government organizations over the years
and was previously the home of the u.s.
Canadian aerospace protection project
NORAD and the military organization
United States Northern Command until the
mid 2000s in fact the NORAD USNORTHCOM
alternate command center continues to
operate out of the complex which is
built under 2,000 feet of solid granite
as if that’s not enough to port unwanted
visitors the blast doors are 25 tons and
can withstand nuclear explosions of over
30 megatons in other words it’s pretty
frickin safe number nine the bold lane
car park if you think that a parking
garage doesn’t deserve to be on our list
of most guarded places you haven’t heard
of bold lane car park built in the 1970s
this car park in Derby England had
developed a reputation as a haven for
crime drug abuse and panhandling by the
1990s it was in response to these
accusations that local security experts
decided to rebrand bold Lane as a
state-of-the-art car park bar-coded
tickets are needed to get in and out
while all cars are monitored by moe
cameras and alarms that lock down the
entire complex should even one of them
be disturbed number eight the Granite
Mountain Records fault the Church of
Jesus Christ of latter-day saints owns a
humongous archive of records and history
all housed hundreds of feet inside
Granite Mountain in Little Cottonwood
Canyon Utah the Granite Mountain records
vault possesses a climate-controlled
atmosphere designed to preserve all of
the sensitive paper documents and
microfilm detailing years and years of
genealogical information its protection
is pretty much guaranteed by its
location beneath 600 feet of stone but
if that’s not enough there are a series
of doors weighing between 9 and 14 tons
as well and yes they are designed to
survive a nuclear blast should that ever
occur number 7 the Tumen River just as
the Korean Demilitarized Zone tightly
guards its small border area between
North and South Korea so too does the
Tumen River serve as an intensely
scrutinized gateway between China North
Korea and Russia the reason for the
heightened security along the Tumen
River is due to the fact that many North
Koreans have been caught attempting to
enter China through the rivers rather
shallow waters there are border patrol
guards placed by all three countries
along the Tumen while the river waters
themselves also happen to be highly
polluted this fact goes ignored however
by the desperate few who watch and wait
for a perfect opportunity to make it
across number six the Svalbard global
Seed Vault have you ever wondered
whether or not there’s a fail-safe set
in place should a worldwide famine or
humanitarian disaster occur if so then
count your lucky stars for the small
bard global Seed Vault the purpose of
this vault is to house spare samples of
seeds for the purpose of growing food
should the need arise this fall bard is
located on the remote Norwegian island
of Spitsbergen and is protected by air
locks motion sensors and blast resistant
doors it’s built high above sea level so
rising sea levels won’t impact it and
there’s no known tectonic activity in
the area
all of these security measures are
designed to protect the precious
environmentally controlled cargo within
its walls number five the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York there
are 12 Federal Reserve banks located
within the United States all of which
features some of the most heightened
levels of security time plots in
Kentucky Fort Knox
ha its from tourists the New York branch
of the Federal Reserve is considered to
be first among equals with regards to
its contemporaries and overseas
financial policies and payment systems
for the United States robotics are
utilized within the reserves vaults
while the outside security force is
expertly trained in both hand-to-hand
combat as well as sharp shooting oh and
it’s located 80 feet underground nothing
goes in or out of the Federal Reserve
without prior knowledge and proper
Authority number 4 the Vatican Secret
Archives
if conspiracy theories or Dan Brown
novels have taught us anything it’s that
Vatican City holds more than its fair
share of Secrets I did remind him that
the Vatican is the Vatican a 109 acre
sovereign state in the middle of Rome
surrounded by a 60-foot wall which is
monitored 24/7 with over 200 CCTV
cameras that’s not evil makes it a
challenge much of this information is
housed within the Vatican secret
archives a storage facility that
maintains a veritable cornucopia of
forms Ledger’s and official documents
from the Catholic Church these archives
are set apart from the Vatican Library
and its ownership is passed down from
Pope to Pope access to the archives was
once completely forbidden to the public
but is now open to researchers who can
apply for special permission to enter
and study its contents however according
to the Catholic website crux quote
journalists students and amateur
historians aren’t welcome haven’t been
able to finish part two because I’m not
allowed access to your archives plus
those scholars with the proper
credentials that are admitted must first
pass Swiss Guards and all
we have access to the specific documents
that they had to have asked for in
advance
with all due respect your holiness it’s
the Swiss Guard I think we can handle a
few court jesters with whatever
halbert’s which you realize are just
ceremonial obviously their ceremony
Ilana they were made obsolete by the
octopus number three the White House
sure
critics of White House security may
point to the history of occasional
breaches that have dealt a black eye to
those guarding the home of America’s
commander-in-chief this doesn’t change
the fact that the White House remains
one of the most heavily guarded areas in
the world an iron fence surrounds the
property which is fitted with
bulletproof windows and a Secret Service
detail devoted to protecting the first
family at all costs the air above the
White House is considered permanently
prohibited airspace while roof snipers
and undercover agents are located at
points around the ground making the
president’s home a heavily protected
structure at all times
number two Fort Knox there’s a reason
the old saying goes locked up tighter
than Fort Knox maybe it’s because the
massively thick and blast-resistant
interval to Fort Knox has been said to
contain an insanely complicated locking
system that depends upon a 10-person
team or maybe it’s the fact that the
kentucky location of Fort Knox has
housed both precious documents as well
as the bullion reserve of the United
States Fort Knox is heavily protected at
all times by armed guards making it the
sort of party no one can crash without a
proper invitation before we open the
gates to our number one guarded place
here are a few highly classified
honorable mentions
[Music]
number one area 51 well-documented by
conspiracy nuts and outerspace
aficionados alike area 51 is without a
doubt one of the most guarded places on
earth this subsection of Edwards Air
Force Base in Nevada has special use
airspace and possesses an air of mystery
that has captivated people around the
world take my word for it there’s no
area 51’s listen there’s no recovered
spaceship excuse me mr. president that’s
not entirely accurate motion-triggered
sensors surround the perimeter patrols
of armed guards are constantly surveying
the grounds and protecting it from
outsiders many of whom are desperate to
grab a glimpse of the mythological alien
technology that conspiracy theorists
believe is contained inside experimental
weapons testing has also been rumored to
be one of the top secret programs
existing within area 51 a heavily
protected mystery of u.s. security and
information about which we may never
learn the whole truth do you agree with
our list which area do you feel is the
most guarded in the world when you’re in
the vaults all tips don’t matter
this matter is keeping the seed safe for
more top secret top 10s published every
day be sure to subscribe to

this building into a hangar and steal an
airforce plane
