TRUMP 2024 TO SAVE AMERICA
Brazilian police more concerned with making the country look better instead of stopping actual crime LMFAO.
Chief of police lied to pin a crime on a dude because he made the country "look bad".
Welcome to my country.
Yes, it's pathetic.
@@eduardoearturmoreiragood women tho no? 😂
@@Movato no.
Swiss police is no better. Other countries neither. It's disgunsting.
Wait, so Lochte actually did get held up?! How am I just now now hearing about this in 2024? Media did that man dirty.
Never believe what the media says.
Yeah, that's completely different from how I remember it going down. That's crazy, how much the media twisted his story.
He wasn't held up. Armed security guards demanded they pay for the sign, and nowhere in this video is it confirmed that their wallets were taken
That literally sounds like the definition of being detained lol getting "held up" is exactly what happened
That’s why I sometimes think news channels are no different from gossip channels. Yes , Locte acted stupid and wanted to flex the gun point for wtv reason …but this doesn’t excuse the fabricated facts from the authorities reported by news channels. He did not deserve to get his entire reputation ruined like that imo .
Patrick doesn't remind us to drink water anymore, I've been dehydrated for months now
Real
Drink water
Usually my que to drink my beer 🥺
😢
this video sounds like ai
This is so sad. A politician can compulsively lie on a daily basis for a living, but a drunken athlete gets one detail wrong when recollecting a stressful event and the entire media decides to make an example out of him.
Yup.. pretty much what the media does with anything sadly
I always say..we hold athletes to higher standards than politicians
This is pre Trump
@@joshgordon8369Reagan walked so trump could run
@@CNYKnifeNutso Biden could full on sprint full speed with his families corruption.
this is the goofiest way to have ur career ended. yea he might if drunkenly lied but I don’t see it being that big of a deal honestly
it was barely a lie too
His mom screwed him over, and she refuses, to this day, to apologize to her son.
even tho your right but i can see how it might of been a big deal to ppl of Brazil overall. Theit country already looks bad in the media because Cartels and Cooked cops... then 2016 was the Trump year so America was becoming super open about the racism here at the time also big hate on immigrants and any non white race was growing... combine with Lochte being the exact image of what ppl outside of America picture as American saying he was robbed. All that combined made it auto target time for Lochte. It was just bad timing for all those events... there was no way they was gonna not ruin his whole career.
he didn't "drunkenly lie" though. He doubled down while sober. And it is a lie to omit the part of the story that could explain the "robbers" behavior: aka being shown the damaged sign. But he relied on his credibility being an athlete and being a "good" white guy who isn't a thug unlike brazilians
@@VerticalSpectaclewhat are you talking about? when he talked about it the second time is when he stated that they just pointed a gun at him and not directly at his head, which was the truthful version. stop spewing lies.
The fact that news channels were trying to call this 28+ year old a “kid” is hilarious
More so based on his actions.. that of a spoiled child.
Sorry if that's a good example of a "man" to you ... Hahaha
i mean he's a kid in a adult body so they're somewhat right tho
Still not as crazy as knocking over a sign in a third world sh*t hole and ending your career 😂
That’s called white privilege
"The gun was not held against his head but rather pointed at his chest?" - Well this changes everything!
Exactly he’s a liar and can’t nothing be trusted that comes out his mouth 😂
@@user-vl3op8jo9obro looking down the barrel of a gun it’s Extremely hard to tell if it’s pointed at your chest/neck/head . Unless it’s right next to your head when your looking down the barrel it
Could be st uour chest or hesd
You could EASILY think it was at your head but it’s really at your upper chest . Either way he was probably terrifyed and didn’t have the best memory of it especially while drinking
@@user-vl3op8jo9o not really, its been stated in the video hes heavily intoxicated
and even then you can't tell if its pointing at your head from a distance but even then why would he just lie about that? you do realize being shot in the chest can be as fatal as being shot in the head right?
he got some parts incorrect probably because he was heavily intoxicated and the only one that truly lied was the chief of police
@@user-vl3op8jo9o Looks like you couldn't detect the sarcasm from the OP. If it's pointed at your head or your chest, you're equally as screwed 😂😂
Whether it was at his head or chest, at close range or head... they held him at gun point over a sign and lied!
Thats how they do it in Brazil!
He didnt get "held up" He was "held accountable" for breaking a sign. I dont know how you watched that video and didnt understand the point of the story but he was being a drunk, obnoxious American tourist and was breaking things for fun and a bunch of Brazilian gas station SECURITY GUARDS held him accountable and made him pay for the damages. I wish we did this in teh US but if you are still confused, in Brazil they point a gun at you when you break their shit. He wasn't a completely innocent person who was "robbed", he broke their shit and they pulled a gun on him and made him pay for it. Then he lied about it and acted like he was completely innocent and "robbed". I'm sure those SECURITY GUARDS were sick and tired of drunk Americans' bullshit. Jesus Christ get some education.
and then he got robbed again by that pr company, they didn't do anything for him
"Over a sign"? Clearly you haven't been to a 3rd world country. They had to do that before he fled the scene, and the victim would take the financial loss.
You sound so privleged.
@@user-cw4bu6bv9byou wouldn’t like it if an American cop held someone from your country at gun point so don’t be a hypocrite.
@@nitely2345 Lollllll, dont tell me youre from america saying this! how the police in your contry approach a suspect?
That’s what I like about Patrick . One week he can go from hip hop drama to sports drama the following week or any other unrelated subject while keeping us invested .
I like to mix it up otherwise I get bored lol. I haven't had much luck in the sports world, hopefully this video does well
🤞
AND NEVER report ANYTHING of substance along the way...
@@PatrickCcare you a hotty with a body or a cutie with a booty
Keep going with the sports s***Bro it's a nice diversification@@PatrickCc
@@barackobama9343I literally just learned Ryan Lochte wasn’t a liar gtfoh
Being drunk in a foreign country is so dangerous. There will be always some people just waiting to have reason to rip them off. Being hold at gunpoint and yelled at in a foreign langauge is crazy.
Nah not any country just Brazil
its made worse that when he went through this terrifying situations, he didn't get help, he was called racist for experiencing danger in a dangerous country. Stereotypes aren't true. Reputations are. And unfortunately Brazil has a reputation not a stereotype.
@@stellviahohenheim Brazil isn't the most dangerous for this kind of thing
@@noellefritz5678it’s not even a reputation it’s just the truth. Why can’t people just accept reality when it isn’t convenient for their political narratives. Brazil, Venezuela, Mexico? All gang ruled countries. How do I know this? I am from there!
@@noellefritz5678it isn’t even a reputation it’s just the truth. People don’t wanna accept reality when it goes against their political narrative but it simply is what it is.
His poor mom must feel so guilty too, she thought she was just venting to a man on the bus about something scary that happened to her kid and everything imploded from there.
Never tell your mom anything, they can’t handle it, too emotional. I would say same applies to your father.
Just keep things to yourself.
People will feed on the weak, and in this case, his mother was weak and expressed her feelings.
You have a public figure as a son, keep your mouth shut.
Stay in your lane. Know your place.
@@SunnyM360My kids can tell me things but no way I'd tell my parents anything.
Imagine having a family member who can't shut up about personal stuff when talking to strangers.
this was blown way out of proportion. at this point, you just gotta feel bad for the guy.
He peed outside and knocked over a sign cause he was drunk, I'd like to hear of some athlete's career being stolen over less 😂
@@NarutoLichtYeah.. honestly he really didn’t do anything lmao. Guess people were right.. Brazil sucks lmao.
So to summarise:
- Swimmer gets drunk, pulls down a sign from a wall.
- Armed men see this and pull their guns on him and his friends, and demand money.
- He then gives an interview whilst still drunk and didn't get the facts 100% accurate.
- He later admits to the vandalism and says that the gun wasn't to his head.
- But him and his friends were STILL held at gunpoint until they gave over money to random men.
So what should the punishment be? 🤔
1. Be made to pay for the damage and issue a public apology?
2. Be arrested and sentenced for the vandalism?
3. Loose all of your sponsorships, your career, and be vilified for being held at gunpoint until you gave over yours and your friends money to random men.
This is crazy.
Yah it doesn't make any sense.
@@Hinodei It's absolutely ridiculous isn't it?
He was super cancelled before cancel culture was common
“Armed men”=off duty PD. Expect the same if a foreign athlete was busted in the US destroying properties.
Moral of the story is never apologize, I think he would have been able to save his public image
I couldn't agree more.
Ever since it was a kid i always thought public/forced apologies are utterly worthless. What's the point in making someone apologize for something when they obviously don't mean it? It's always only to try get the heat off themselves but in a case like this he made himself look guilty.
The reality is if he did not “apologize” he would have been banned for life instead a year.
A messed with powerful peoples high level geopolitical by accident.
What is that last sentence even supposed to mean?@@AL-lh2ht
Moral of the story is to never visit Brazil.
A lie can make it around the world before the truth can get its shoes tied
I know that’s right.
My mum loves saying this
This paired with how outraged everyone was when Phelps got caught hitting a bong at a party makes feel so bad for these athletes. The pressure they're under to be inhumanly perfect in immense.
I can understand the bong thing, drugs, legal or not are a very contentious topic.
@@poppythedogofwonders but they are fine with cigs and alcohol, all stupid people
@@poppythedogofwonderspeople just need to learn to mind their business.
@poppythedogofwonders so alcohol is ok? Weed has basically only bad effects for an athlete
The Olympic committee should look after their athletes properly and do their own investigations instead of what happened here
The Olympic Commitee? Thats an international organization. How about the country whose colors he wore and medals he won for? The Country whose honor he defended and brought her pride? It's embarrasing how a man who won so many medals for a country gets forgotten by it in the time of need.
What a shame for an olympic hero to be let down by his own people, by his own country.
Given how absolutely corrupt The Olympics are, no the fuck they should not do anything of the sort.
@@robotube7361wdym this country actively targets white men merely because of of their skin color not matching their agenda
Dude admitted to lying in front of the press, nobody can help him if he doesn't help himself
@@stellviahohenheim he admitted to over reacting . Big difference. The medias agenda lied and smeared his name. It takes a blind fool to think different
Jimmy Feigen became an injury attorney and represented my sister in a dog bite case. He really wanted to learn the law after getting kicked out of Rio LOL
Thats actually really cool. Crazy how “bad things” in life can change your path immensely. Even cooler he made it into a positive and found something he enjoyed learning about, then something he does for a living probably a good one too.
That's awesome! I swam with Jimmy at San Antonio Wave back in the day! He was a bit younger and we were never close because of the age Difference but I was friends with his older sister, Annie, and pretty well acquainted with the middle sister, Lynn! Crazy to see how amazing he became!
Lol I was in a car accident with him back in 2018 and he lied to help his then gf and now wife getting out of the trouble. So I guess depending on which side he's on.
@@chikonan93 At the expense of you or someone else? Or to get her out of paying for something that would have been covered by insurance otherwise? Because I don't really see some light insurance fraud to help a family member out as being a big deal. Even the most straight laced people I know have done stuff like that before. Although if it was to put someone else at fault, then that's a really shitty move for sure.
@@gluehuff43 It was at the expense of someone else. After the insurance hired 2 independent 3rd party experts to recreate the scene, they all concluded that it was her who caused the whole chain of accident. Keep in mind these were 2 separate independent 3rd party experts that would need to answer in front of the judge, not the insurance's benefit.
I understand if it was just 2 of them and they would want lighter the issue, but not when it affected others.
Wow I remember when this happened and not a single network reported on the truth. I remember every story saying he was drunk, vandalized the bathroom and lied about being held at gun point. Such a shame he lost so much
I was overseas at the time and I remember the exact same thing being reported by American news channels.
His only mistake was trying to make up a story and then apologizing.
NEVER APOLOGIZE.
His PR team really ruined his career ig, now that I think about it. Even if he wanted to apologize, he only needed to do so for knocking off the sign and peeing outside, bc that's all he did lol
This is something not talked about but a while back, 6 Navy seals admitted to murders they didn’t commit and got locked up for ungodly amounts of time.
Recently in the internet, someone named GeorgeNotFound apologized for something that is genuinely not too bad
as a brazilian, i clicked on this video with my own preconceptions formed from the articles i read when this was all happening. i never really thought about this situation again so i had no idea of the all ryan went through as a result of this. thank you for talking about this. i hope he is well
Patrick tries his hardest to sympathize with the white man.
He still lied. lying on a country about an event that never actually happened.
And somehow wee are supposed to feel bad for the aftermath that happened after?
He isn’t, the media and the corrupt brazillian government destroyed his life.
Sorry your country is like this 😢.
Sorry tourist think they can come drunk and fuck thing's up and then play the victim
You should be ashamed of your horrible country and the awful people in it
What a circus of a situation
The one headline ‘liar, liar, speedo on fire’ 🤣
I caught that too whoever wrote that got a great sense of humor 😂😂😂😂
@@njva18 bahaha I kno I loved it
Since when could dishwashers speak? 🤔
@@StevenHawkingsSpitrag bruh what 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
@@njva18 you’d understand if you possessed basic reading comprehension, but I understand education isn’t really part of your culture so I’ll let it slide this time.
That footage towards the end where he looked like he was about to cry almost made me cry. You can tell when he said he sometimes thinks it'd be better if he went to sleep and never woke up would be better for everyone else. He wasn't saying it as a way to garner sympathy. He actually meant it. He was so broken, so tired of everything going wrong, and tired of feeling like he let everyone down. He felt like he let down his family, his country, and other swimmers... He just looked like he was over all of it. I also remember back when it was being reported. First, that he had been held up, then that he was lying, and basically nothing really after that. I don't remember anything coming out after that which was unfortunate. He had been labeled a liar by the world's media. All because he embellished part of the story while he was still under the influence and had been up for over 24 hours. Poor guy. Glad his GF (now wife) stood by him and saw the positive in him. He has a beautiful family and it seems like life is much better now.
Dude was an arrogant douche. He completely left out the fact he ripped down that sign and was pissing all over the place. So while technically his lie wasnt that bad, he left out the most important parts of the story to make himself seem innocent. He also acted like he 100% was robbed by random thugs, when im sure the security had badges and uniforms. But yea, it still seemed like a shakedown
No evidence of him specifically ripping down the sign, also they had to use the bathroom which was locked.
@@kingcharles520 he admitted to ripping down the sign later
@@jimbojones9118 "left out the most important parts of the story"? Lmao. Because being held at gunpoint by people shouting at you and taking your money isnt the most important part right? 🤡
Fun fact: ALL of Michael Phelps’ world records have been broken, but Lochte’s 200 im record still stands. GOAT!
Who broke Phelps 400m individual relay?
i didn’t know that! i remember Phelps being such a HUUGE deal back then w all them records lol
All of his individual records were broken. He still has 2 world records tho. The 4x100 and the 4x200 freestyle
@@BlyGuyLeón Marchland in Japan last year
He still holds world record for most olympic medals won
This story just shows that when the spotlight is on u everything you do is x1000, the amount of people that have destroyed a sign and just had to deal with average consequences versus this is crazy media ran with it like a wild fire
Literally insane, but you could argue it's not times x1000 when the spotlight is on you, think of how many pro athletes are respected and funded despite doing things like drunk driving, the Olympics are just dicks :(

Poor Ryan. This video legit makes me feel terrible for him. Seems the punishment outweighed the crime.
As a lifelong fan of the guy, yeah, it was definitely injustice to a swimming legend. I am surprised nobody offered him apologies atleast. Sad
You mess up one time and people want you to off yourself. Don't give them that satisfaction. Yet another banger video from Patrick. 👌🏾
He barely messed up too 😢 out of all celebrity "bad actions" I've heard of, this is by far the most tame 😂
I was a swimmer my whole life and got to meet Ryan Lochte a couple times. He was also super nice and treated all the younger swimmers great
Its baffling the US Olympic team believed an obviously fabricated story by a notoriously corrupt government... in a country where paying your way out of police interaction is the norm. The sign wasn't broken. They nocked a paper/cardboard sign out of a metal frame. Metal frame was intact and the cardboard/plastic-board sign could be put back in... he was robbed at gun point.
Man. This was sadder than I thought it would be. What a huge blow up over basically nothing. I can't imagine how he feels
The mother could learn not to overshare
Exactly this lol
It was still his fault for being drunk, but the response was definitely NOT proportional, I blame the media-demons thirsty for clicks on ANY story, no matter how uninteresting :/
@@NarutoLichtNo it’s the media’s fault for over sensationalizing a stupid story that no one would care about if it wasn’t lochte
His dad was known as an abusive jerk.
His Safesport case was closed when he retired. Nothing conclusive that he was cleared just that he retired at approximately the same time his interim suspension was lifted. Rumor was it was about abusive conduct towards his swimmer(s).
I watched the whole ad before I realized it was an ad. 10/10
We definitely need a follow up video about swimmers being able to use Apple Vision Pro while racing.
I thought that said "0/10"
Guess ur just slow
895 MILLION on security??? Is that what you meant to say? That sounds unbelievable.
it sounds unbelievable, but its true. Well at least that's what was reported...........
There were whole Ghettos bulldozed for security reasons. So costs are adding up, also theres probably a huge sum lost due to corruption.
Corruption in Brazil is a whole mafia, there are too many politicians and most of them are corrupt. They can't even go to jail while in an active mandate by law because politicians themselves create absurd laws like that.
That’s with 400 million going to the gangs so they don’t run up on tourists during it
The olyimpixs is huge man. There’s things going on all over the place . Combined with the fact RIO is already dangerous , im surprised it didn’t cost more. If it was in the USA and they had to pay American police wages it would be wayyyy more .
All because his mom told the reporter about it. Even the dude himself didn't see it as a big deal till the reporter went out of his way to ask him for detail.
Still waiting for Diddy Video. Stop being Scared😂

GREAT JOB on involving the add with the story, because I usually fast forward through it, you did a great job on that.
a whole country fucked his career up only because he wanted to sound cool in found of the cameras...
I mean, he kinda went against Brazil’s campaign to make Rio seem like a safer place lol
@@a_hernandez HE WAS HELD AT GUNPOINTB THOUGHSO HE LIED ABOUT IT BEING AT HIS HEAD WHEN IT WAS IN HIS GENERAL DIRECTION BIG WOOP
No, HE fucked his own career with his mouth infront of a camera.
He buckled very quickly without a fight, why? dude probably never been bullied his entire life
He wasn't trying to be cool for the cameras, he was portraying himself as a victim of crime in the country when actually he was the perpetrator of drunken vandalism. It further made him look like a coward when he fled the country before Brazilian authorities could stop him, and even worse, abandoned his teammates there.
If Lochte was so innocent, why did the police stop him from leaving? It's because they didn't want him to flee the scene of the vandalism that was caused. In those countries, people flee and avoid any type of trial, and the victim has to take the loss.
Yes, it was just a sign and the police exaggerated that the bathroom was damaged, but the tone Lochte set in the first interviews was him being a victim which undoubtedly irked the Brazilian authorities when that was far from the truth, and they retaliated by adding and fabricating the bathroom vandalism.
When will people learn that the worst things you can do is apologize. Don’t accept defeat.
I actually grew up with one of the 4 swimmers involved. We were on the same swim team, and I always looked up to him because of his insane work ethic and drive. He was also a lovely person, and went out of his way to mentor younger swimmers. This scandal ruined his life and the swimming career he dedicated his entire life to. I haven’t seen him in years, but my heart goes out to him.
This is easily one of the best channels on RUclips.

Great video Patrick. I never knew a lot of this information.

The news first broke out about the "robbery," I remember thinking, "There's something not adding up here."
It’s was a robbery no quotes needed lol. That country is a dump and a security guard isn’t buying a new sign with the money he took a gunpoint 😂
you were wrong
They u for sharing this story Patrick I never knew about this god bless this man
I am so glad you're covering this. I never knew he was actually held at gunpoint! There's people who have done way worse and still have careers. It's ridiculous his ended over this.
I loved that "Kim, i got robbed too 😉😉" meme lol
There's an interview he made some days before the trials for Tokyo 2021; turns out some time after the Rio fiasco, he had a HUGE fallout with his mom cause she was super controlling and she actually stole some money from him. Not only that, he realized she had been planting ideas on his head to provoke a rift between him and his dad. A real piece of work that woman. Plus he admited while he was at his worst he became addicted to painkillers. It's sad cause in the interview you can see that left him some damage. Dude was never the sharpest tool in the shed but now he seems too slow
Rio proved themselves to be exactly what they were trying to disprove 😂 🤦♀️
Honestly, thanks for covering this, I always thought he was truly a D-bag with no defense but didn’t know what he did wasn’t that bad
Same, I had no idea his "crime" was so tame, definitely the most nothing-burger pro athlete trouble I've heard of
This is sad and just reinforces my reasons for never trusting what’s said in the media.
Things like this happen every time here in Puerto Rico with tourists. I used to work in a Hotel and an one guy even called me the "S" slur one time and he didn't know i knew English.
You’re so good at your videos bro and your voice is sharp 💯
I remember this story, it’s the reason why I don’t wanna go to Brazil or South America at all reall, I believed it him bc we all knew Brazil wasn’t the best country, and the footage to me was proof, idk why ppl thought it was a lie, the security footage explained it all to me
I'd be surprised if even 1 person goes for that news pitch 😂
Really cool story thanks for the video. So happy to hear he happily became a family man and they lasted through everything!
I hate people who are so happy to cancel someone, ruin their life, rejoice in their downfall and the forget about them, and move on
The media in a nutshell, clicks are $'s lol
*Cancel. And it depends, it's justified if the person is genuinely shitty and doesn't deserve what they have in the first place. Some people only learn by it being made clear that others will not tolerate the shit they're doing and getting slapped savagely.
@@poppythedogofwonders tru, "canceling" is as old as humans are. But the internet indeed makes it easier in some ways to do so
They really pulled up at his dancing gig like what?? Lmao.. homie wasn’t even in the wrong.
Why didn’t the other swimmers back him up? They seemed to just let him fumble the bag on his own
This is a good case study for why, when you strike it big, you should continue to live below your means and immediately start saving/investing. A lesson too many people learn too late.
I appreciate you and the work that you do…
