Wow what an incredible story. Just how many plane crashes did this kid walk away from? Seems like Colton is smart and driven and that he could make something of himself if he applies himself correctly. Wishing him the best of luck.

The thought of a 16 year old learning to fly a plane with ms flight simulator on a stolen laptop in the woods is comedy gold
MS flight sim is very useful to learn certain aspects of flying.
Ya learning in that way sounds like someone who played COD and thought they were a war vet😂😂
That guy who stole the passenger plane and was doing like barrel rolls and shit also learned from Ms flight simulator lol.
Riley: Who said he learned how to fly on a flight simulator IN THE WOODS? No one.
@@seanw4606 that guy also used that same plane to nose dive and unalive himself

@@shimaphys probably out of panic. if he really wanted to hurt the cops he would´ve shot more than just 1 shot

The fact that he landed all those planes without dying or being critically hurt is insane
I'm sure if you know what you're doing you can mitigate the chances pretty well in the airplanes he actually flew, they didn't look that big.
Like... WHAT
if u think abt it. he grinded plane simulators and read book so he knew positions, tactics and how to land but also, ur in the fucking sky, ofc ur gonna be well protected if crashes were to happend.
Not that amazing really. Most students learning to fly light aircraft are allowed to do their first solo flight after only 5-10 hours of experience. Given that he had done a lot of flight sim he had a pretty good idea of what he needed to do even if he hadn't actually done it before.
His crashes were more bad landings than crashes which is about what I would have expected.
Easy or not, I'm still amazed how he just decided to fly it (and stealing 5 of them) and use his knowledge to just fly, and land.
I was a correctional officer at the prison he was housed at (Stafford Creek). While he was at Stafford Creek he was cell mates with a man who was in his late 80's named John Anderson. Anderson was serving life for multiple bank robberies committed in the late 1960's. Anderson was also an experienced pilot. He kind of took Colton Harris Moore under his wing. I used to hear them talking about planes and seeing Colton's drawings of Cessna and other different airplanes in the day room on a regular basis. I actually added Colton on Facebook in 2016 when I quit working for the department of corrections. Apparently he got out and has been financially successful and also earned his pilots license.
Im glad the kids doing good. I never had any bad interactions with him and he was always really respectful to me as an officer. Some of the older officers at Stafford Creek had issues with him but I think this was more based on the fact that a lot of older CO's are miserable human beings.
Last I heard anything about him was in 2018 when I was following his facebook. Hopefully hes a full time pilot now!
DAMN
Very cool details!
Thanks for sharing this information
Rare happy ending, nice. Thanks for this info, and have a great day!
I was at Stafford it was way better then Monroe WSR thanks for being kind

Everything that kid did was just badass
CPS never fails to live up to their disappointing legacy of ignoring the kids who actually need help and rob children from healthy homes.
Bro was playing GTA 6 in real life
Harris got the early access of GTA 6
So true!
Two years in the system myself
Incredibly sad. One of my friends from high school had a mom & living situation like this. She OD’d and died in front of him before we graduated, CPS had never intervened in any way & didn’t then because he was recently 18. With a rental trailer-home and no way to pay for it, he was instantly homeless.
We all tried as best we could (for 18-20 year olds) to help him out financially & socially, and he actually did surprisingly well for a bit almost saving up to afford his apartment... but then his mom’s genes kicked in.
10 years later, he has full blown schizophrenia, is still homeless, dangerously suspicious of doctors & _anybody_ who tries to help, and is constantly self-medicating with alcohol and other shit.
The mental illness would’ve set in eventually, but I can’t help but believe it was only made quicker by the circumstances & I think a lot about how things could’ve been so different if he truly got the help he needed as a child.

A movie on his life would be fun if they framed it like a "catch me of you can" type comedy or something. I mean The Barefoot Bandit is already such a catchy and perfect title for it lol.
Colton is way above average smart, as a teenager he managed to scape the country two times, play with the cops literally in front of them, managed to learn how to fly planes somewhat successfully and he never had to hurt a single person, which is why his story is so likeable, he is literally a IRL Robinhood. The fact that he did all of this and got a reduced sentence to start his life is probably the most badass story I’ve heard all year.
Bro be playing GTA5
The difference between a Colton and “his friend Harley” couldn’t be more clear. One gets arrested trying steal an 1000lb safe from a church, and the other soars through the skies like an angel spitting on the cop cars below.
was thinking the same, if he had a good life to start with kid might have become a scientist
That's a really stupid comment
Bro wasn't "somewhat successful" at flying, he was flying like a mf'ing G. It was the landing part that was tricky.
This honestly sounds like the police made up a kid to pin a bunch of crimes on and went overboard with it. This actually being real is insane.

@@highestpeeqs9532Bruh again?
Hard to dislike Colton. Smart, resourceful, nonviolent, methodical, came from nothing. If he was raised by a good mother, his odds would have drastically improved.
He needed some love.
Amazing human being, how driven one person can be.
I'm just happy he didn't hurt anyone he mostly didn't steal from anyone who couldn't pay it back and he only stole when needed (mostly)
He just lived life, but as a side note how he got caught was embarrassing
The selfies he took in the woods while actively being hunted by the FBI will forever be iconic. The angles and lighting were magazine-ready.
There’s a critical window between ages 11 and 20 where guidance and good parenting are the difference between two end results while equal in ability, intelligence, potential and courage, but distinct in title: Scholar/Genius or Criminal Mastermind……both of which would be intriguing and amazing in their own regard.
His first conviction for stolen property came at age 12, and by the time he was 13, he had three more. He has been diagnosed with depression, attention deficit disorder and intermittent explosive disorder. Neighbors said they made several calls to Child Protective Services, believing he was neglected or abused. His father, Gordon, used drugs and was in prison while Moore was a toddler. Nah, his life was f'ed from the start.
At least he has an actually quite awesome rap to go to prison for. "What you in for?" "Oh I knocked over five liquor stores, you?" "I stole six airplanes while on the run from the FBI." - Instant respect...
As a young teen 👀
A lot of underdeveloped minds in the pen are gonna see that as a challenger and try to snap his neck
He's still gona have to gang or loose his balloon knot
lol
In my head cannon he finally got the respect from other inmates and didn’t get bullied.
Yo vince i love ur vids and the animation style I could watch these forever keep up the great work ❤️

The kid's crime-filled life is like an action-packed movie.
hence why he wanted to sell the rights to his story
That kid who played young Ryan Reynolds in that Netflix movie should play him in the biopic.
Well just like every 16 year old that goes in juvenile jail
and hopefully this serves a lesson
Really?
You've got to admit. The kid really can adapt and pick up on shit quick. I mean, breaking into that many places and getting away the few times he was caught. Wild.
He would have done great in the military!
Ghetto loser who’s gonna die or end up in jail
I couldn't imagine living on that ever-fluid edge so often. I live my entire life planning and building it to avoid such desperation...Yet he found a way to be so comfortable with it he even liked it.
Big deal. The dumb kid does not deserve to be idolized. Considering his airplane escapades, he doesn't strike me as smart at all. A kid who learns calculus on his own is more deserving, for example.
@@GRAYgausswrd up!
best channel i have ever seen! i listen to it all the time! I love it!
Wow! That was a hell of a story! I'm surprised I haven't heard of this before. I'm gonna talk about him. Yeah, he may not be able to on the books make money but you know he's taking advantage of loopholes and making money from that. He's too much of a character. I love this guy.
This reminds me of the movie with Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks, and is a true story too "" catch me if you can "" is the movie.
this guy actually has my respect he never hurt anyone and it’s crazy how smart he was for how young he was
He hurt plenty of people.
the indomitable human spirit
So if somebody stole your car, your boat, your plane, you wouldn't have any problem with that?
@Glen Turney That's irrelevant to what was said. Obviously theft is bad but it's survivable. He didn't physically batter anyone
@@glenturney4750 that's what insurance is for.
Bro, this kid outsmarted entire governments in multiple countries. You telling me he wasn't hired by any of them? He outsmarted the FBI, homeland security, candian law enforcement, and Bahamas law enforcement. If it wasn't for his ego with the boat, I don't think they would have ever caught him. Though it seems like he has a good life now so that is good.
if it's in someone's blood to outsmart everyone and never surrender it would probably not be a good idea for an intelligence or law enforcement agency to employ him.
sure, he might be experienced and smart and do the job asked of him perfectly, but such agencies rely on a hierarchy to keep their employees in line, and he would certainly not bend to their will. The boundary between someone overstepping their boundaries slightly using creative techniques and someone going rogue at such an agency is up to interpretation.
intelligence and security agencies are massive and complex beasts, and i guess they're full of inefficiencies and dodgy projects some people might find unethical. as someone gains experience they might become disillusioned. "familiarity breeds contempt", and a person like him will act on contempt
@@sheikchilli8670 Bro let's call it how it is. He definitely had a long sit down with multiple higher ups and maybe even helped out with a few operations.
He doesn't have to wear a badge and sit at the lunch table to "work" for the government.
This person was a 16 years old criminal prodigy, at still a very impressionable stage, it would be dumb not to see what he knows, how he would improve security, etc.
@@dylono.t.2509 nah sheik is right. I like Colton, he seems like a cool dude and id love to party with him. but c'mon, criminal prodigy? definitely not. this whole video isnt gassing him up as a genius, its really just showing how inept the police are. aside from avoiding filling his car with gas, most everything he did was just, normal stuff you would do in his situation. he made a lot of mistakes, and caught some lucky breaks. its an incredible story, but he isn't a genius criminal.
and yeah, i dont think any government agency would want to work with him on anything short or long term. youre right he doesnt have to have a permanent position to work for the government, but what do you honestly think he could tell them they couldnt easily learn from watching this video?
i imagine most of what he would say is "convince pilots not to leave the keys to their planes in their planes" and "maybe the same with boats lol".
other than that, there isnt much they can do to prevent another case like his. the rich will continue to leave their vacation homes unattended. improved tracking of stolen cards and identities was something they were working on well before Colton and will continue to improve for as long as identities can be stolen.
so yeah. idk what you think he could have helped with. would love to hear it though, im sure youve got at least one wild idea i havent thought of.
"outsmart"
A murderer hasn't outsmarted the authorities when they kill someone. For the most part they exist to punish those who actually commit a crime. The US has very stringent jurisdiction and bureaucracy especially in fringe edge cases. The fact a 15 year old could exploit this isn't evidence the 15 year old is a super genius, but that things could be improved. He is probably a smart guy, that being said.
@@ronan5228 he did outsmart them up until the end tho
This is by far one of the most interesting stories I’ve ever heard. That is insane.

@@Cartier2ShiestyYou can call it badass, but the kid is risking his life (and more relevantly, his freedom for the rest of his life) because he wants attention (both from the cops and his internet fans.)

The amount of talent this dude actually has is quite crazy. Won’t be surprised if a government agency hired him after his sentence
US gov doesn't look for competency. It wants complacency.
Maybe that is where he's at! being a secret agent of the goverment! I wouldn't be surprised that's the reason he went off grid... which makes his story even more incredible if it's true.

@@PastorWisky thats because you must be ten years old lol
well first you need to make money
The authorities did nothing to help him when he was a child with no resources and literally surviving on his own, but then turned him into a supervillain and spent countless tax dollars to catch him and lock him up. Honestly a lot of people failed Colton and he deserved a lot better his whole life. I do not blame him for turning to robbery and I’m sorry he suffered so much in his young life. I really wished the local authorities would have him helped him when he was being neglected and abused by his alcoholic mother
He was being helped. He ran from that help when he left the unfenced group home. He wanted to live on his terms, that is, until he realizes that it's a dead end street.
As I see it the real scandal is that people have to steal food to not starve. How much lower would crime be if people wouldn't be that desperate.
@@leonfa259 I imagine he'd have more food if his Mom wasn't spending that money on cigarettes and alcohol.

I worked in the prison where he served out his sentence. He was a quiet, nice guy, and we were happy to see him get regular visits from Boeing executives. People like him need redirection, not a prison sentence.
no way :o
@trashbag nothing in his life would have been any different if you had been sending a few hundred bucks per month. The complications in his past go beyond money. And just like everyone else, he can blame his parents for his problems, but then who’s responsible for his successes? And if he can blame his parents, they can blame theirs. And they can blame theirs. We all make decisions based on our own previous experiences. His life seems to be leveling off, and in the end, he’ll wear his past as a point of pride. He’ll be more successful than I am. And I’m sure he’ll deserve it. Hope you’re taking care of yourself.
Cap
@@thesouringgentlemanman had to literally survive on his own... wtf are you talking about. This is not about "blame" its about fault. And was it really his fault he turned out this way? He had no other choice and he began to go down the path of crime.... oh and i also dont feel bad about people losing a 500k boat or plane. I dont think it would hurt them that much if they can afford something like that anyway, compared to someone looking for scraps.
@@evobsm2328 I get it. I understand your point. You can assign fault and blame if you want to. I came from chaos too, and I haven’t found it useful in my life to think that way. I quit working for prisons because I don’t think culpability can be that easily established. I don’t care about the material losses either. If they can afford those toys, they can afford the insurance. But if I’m in a bad spot because of my parents, I’m a victim to them. And there’s no way I could improve if I had to live under that. If bitterness and blame works for you, keep it.

This kid needs a Catch Me If You Can style film adaptation. I'm rooting for him. He deserves support, not punishment.
Can’t wait for a movie like that
Yes! especially since this story is actually real, unlike that one.
Yeah...I almost think this film is about him
This kid needs prison and punishment until he changes his ways and starts working hard at an honest life. His victims are the ones who need support.
If he were black, you’d say he should be locked up forever.
One of the best videos on the internet I’ve watched it 5 different times
Bruh you need to get a life lmao
Damn this guy is a hero, the cops never bat an eye to kids that live in the circumstances that he did with his mum being an alcoholic and being poor. He took it upon himself to not only live life to the fullest but also stick it to the police. I really hope he can benefit from this he is incredibly smart and never had any intention of hurting anyone.
no he's not gonna benefit from it... and how is he a hero? he's a criminal
He is a real life story everyone should hear about. It makes you question who you are when you find yourself loving this character.
i wonder what the stats are on teens rooting for The Joker instead of Batman, or Robert Di Niro instead of Al Pacino in "Heat", or just any other Villan/Anti-Hero.. I find it odd that anyone would NOT cheer for the underdog/outcast-outlaw
Right
I love this dude, having grown up with similar life experiences and troubles. I don't question myself, I know I'm a broken person, and this dude gave the feds what they deserved for fucking over the average working man.
you have to be white first
@@rowankrencik parentings the cause or lack of.
Letting his mom on TV was probably the worst thing they could do. He resents everything she represents. He's an abused and neglected kid who might care about his mother, but who knows she's bad news.
His mom is responsible...she should be in prison instead of him ...
@@Logicalsanetrue didn’t think about this. She kicked him out at 15 and neglected him
@@liyahs1energyso did his father i don’t see people blaming him for abandoning his child and not paying child support
@@shifa444 both parents are at fault but you can’t go to jail for not seeing your kids. You go for abusing them though I thought it was illegal to kick at 15 year old out but I’m also not great with law
@@liyahs1energy but u can go to for not paying for ur child and starving them. he didn’t pay child support.
Love the damn vids bro new sub here
28:00 "he changed his number and he went off of the grid, and nobody knows where he's really at"
**troll face intensifies**
here we go again.
💀
the fact that they could have took him in from the beginning and helped him heal from his family trauma instead of leaving him to suffer and turn to a life of crime to survive really tells you a lot about society
exactly
He did get sympathy and they were helping him but he ran from the law again and doubled down on it.
LOL it is hilarious people trying to make excuses for all the damage he caused and crimes he committed. Whatever happened to personal responsibility? People continually doing what you are doing shows l a lot about society.
@@Ealron356 yeah, I never said anything about feeling sympathy for his continued crime, but he again still could have been helped in the beginning to avoid it all. My point still stands.
@@chriskay1449 We've excused worse, he never killed anyone so I don't think he should face any severe consequences, after all he was just a kid.
A wise person once said: ”All kids deserve parents, but not all parents deserve kids.”
Overused quote. But you poetic as hell.
Wrong poet on wrong video 🤦♀️

If I hear this regurgertated comment again, I'm gonna scream !!!!!!!!!
I love it how having a bad upbringing is enough to make everyone instantly have nothing but sympathy for you. Even if you steal dozens of cars, wreck and destroy others property. THREATEN THEM WITH A GUN when you're about to be caught even though you're in THEIR home taking THEIR things. But yeah, his mom and dad were bad so all of those things are just an innocent kid acting out...
His mona lisa smile ❤❤❤❤❤
He was such a cutie! With a beautiful spirit. Btw what a hilarious narrator you are. Loved every second!!
I love the way you present your videos. so unique.
I hope this guy is fine. He really had a bad childhood.
You should have told the part when he was hiding out with his dog and the cops caught the dog the next night he broke into the kennel and got his dog back this dude is a legend
This guy is from Gta
Definitely a LEGEND
😂😂😂❤
This dude has the closest you can get to plot armor IRL.
6:40 a payday 3 ad appeared and I was dead on the floor laughing
I feel like this kid was the inspiration for the protagonist in the Bully game.
I’m fully convinced that if this kid had any sort of adult guidance growing up he’d have been one of the most successful CIA operatives in history
if theres not much known about him nowadays who knows maybe they hired him because of how skillful he is
What a loss for the world if that happened
Which is kind of funny, as bad parents lead to stealing from the rich and good parents lead to hating the poor
After such shenanigans, I’m guessing he would be if he was trained in CIA considering he actually knew the real life experience of being chased and hiding, so he could use those skills against the criminals and think outside the box.
Well adjusted people dont become spies. You need broken people for espionage
I swear to god nothing gets me more excited than a Vince Vintage upload.

real
No seriously
The barefoot bandit. This kid is a legend where i come from. Its quite literally incredible. This kid has become part of the stories you tell to your kids like tom sawyer.
Wow what an incredible story. Just how many plane crashes did this kid walk away from? Seems like Colton is smart and driven and that he could make something of himself if he applies himself correctly. Wishing him the best of luck.
To be able to say you did all that and managed to live to tell the tale is absolutely wild!
And not hurt anyone too
He really did a pacifist run
@@ultralaki1010I feel like his crime run was specifically for proving that he could. He wanted to show the cops, the government, his friends, EVERYBODY, that he could do it.
be a 😊hero to his grandchildren
I don't think he's allowed to tell the tale but I like the sentiment
@@ultralaki1010His mom is responsible...she should be in prison instead of him ...
I really felt for this guy. I had one of those mothers… life is hard without the right type of parental attention, guidance, or even love.
America has no morals. Single mothers and deadbeat dads are American standards these days. Hence why there are so many degenerates.
too true
l really felt for this guy. l had one of those mothers… life is hard without the right type of parental attention, guidance, or even love.
@@Theunicorn2012??
@@Theunicorn2012 well done you repeated what he said you spastic
Legend has it that Colton has slowed down in his old age and now steals hot air balloons.
I remember this whole thing. It was wild! All over the local news for ever, it seemed.
He's secret service. Skills and balls. No fear and no drugs. Perfect warrior.
It would be a logical choice for him. His skill set is so unusual. To be able to improvise and act under dangerous and high pressure situations are the skills .ost of us don't have. I wish him the best.
Pls delete your comment. It is exposing one of our best agents.
Ay man, stop exposing one of the best agent's we have currently he's gonna leave us if he finds out about this.
i hope not, selling your soul away to the government so you can become a human meat shield doesnt sound like fun
The kid did clean his life up and became a responsible citizen. He showed surprising ethics, given his circumstances.
he was a very smart guy with terrible circumstances.
I mean he made very little mistakes in what he actually did end up doing, besides not paying attention to fuel gages and the gps, also lack of knowledge of maps. If someone else was put in his position, really low chance they would get away with it for as long as he did.
YOOO!! Thanks for the heads up, I'm glad to hear it
Bro had invisible cheats
@@Otgel Oh and crashing the planes. Flying is easy, getting the plane back on the ground is the only hard thing. Dont be impressed by someone who can make a plane fly around, anyone can do that. The landing not so much.
@@BlackLivesMatter1414 I can see that you're only a pilot in video games. Those doors don't open when you have wind passing by at 200 mph.
I've never smiled so much watching a RUclips video.
Probably the best video i have ever seen
"Crime doesn't pay unless you're a politician."
Or a CEO
Or famous enough to have enough RABID fans
The fact he learnt how to fly a fucking plane at ONLY 16 by playing Flight Simulator is incredibly impressive. If only he put his brain to work for good, he would definitely become successful.
It seems his whole life he had to focus on just surviving, some people cant focus on success when they dont have basic needs met
Gotta say he successful make a history of his own n will be remembered and he's name will be inmortal and his story were to last for a long time now, I mean what else could u wish more 🤨success ?And everything just gone after u died
I rather be remembered by living the life he dealt with than to be just successful and died somehow
This story is just unbelievable. What an honor to live in the time of one of the greatest outlaws ever, I think. What a strange thing it is to be able to find someone who I'd consider among the most iconic outlaws on LinkedIn and other websites. This guy's a legend. The Bahamas part is just so iconic, you couldn't have written a better place for him to crash land on and steal boats from if it was from a movie. Love it
When does the movie come out? Vince is exceedingly good at this, I mean WOW. Every plane has keys on seat? I have never heard of any human in history pulling all this off, crazy.
