Dude got some balls of steel to attempt Fyre Fest all over again right after being released from prison
Are you single?
Why stop scamming when the punishment for it isn't so bad.
That's why people like him, Logan Paul and crypto king are still active and scamming with no consequences on sight.
And I know the people who are stupid enough to buy into those scams are idiots but still, evil people should be punished for their crimes.
I'd call it stupid! 😂😂😂
yep
He got a slap on the wrist and made millions. Let's be honest if you had no scruples you would too.
Scammers keep scamming….. it’s actually kind of impressive, his ability to ‘suffer’ the consequences of his actions and not learn a single lesson from it
Yes kind of like my cat.
Well look at Jordan Belfort, Trump, etc. People make a pretty good living out of being professional scumbags.
I guess he messes the pen with the foot long black dudes.
Perhaps the punishments are not harsh enough to warrant a complete repenting 🤔But since the Biden administration lives off glorifying these kind of felon behaviours, while freeing or protecting criminals from ever hit the gaol, what one could expect 😸
@@colonelhstinkmeaner8547😂😂😂
If they literally named it “Dumpster Fyre 2.0” imagine how much more trusting people would be. Truth in advertising. 😂
Lmao
More like how dumb would they be.
lol and I thought I had an original coment 🥺😭 lol
Literally.
“Did we not learn anything from last time?!” Literally my thoughts when I saw these articles lmao always glad to hear someone with a clear head and common sense, thank you Brett!!!
agree
Literally.
I gasped and go "they did not"
We did
He didn’t lol
The term "Fool me twice, shame on me." comes to mind.
He is trying to scam more money out of people. Whoever falls for this scam again deserves what they get.
Like the saying, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."
Lol they fucked around and find out consequences
As a person who was born in the Caribbean Islands and was adopted from a orphanage in port au Prince Haiti and want to go back visit the beautiful island and the locals and see the culture i missed and pissed 😤 me of that the influencers are so annoying and disrespectful and I honestly don’t feel bad for fool who got scammed
They deserved it the first time they bought tickets to "Fyre Fest"
He already was fooling those idiots after the fire festival😂😂😂
After this goes belly up, i want a judge to say to everyone clamoring for refunds: "No! The second one is on you, you should have known better. No refunds!" 🤣
Where My Rent
The president of the Bahamas said he's not coming back.
He really said “the first time was so nice, I HAD to do it twice.”
Im so happy Fyre 2.0 is happening. That means that Internet Historian will surely be blessing us with another one of his epic videos about it in the future.
Hahaha true 😂
I think it’s stupid that people want to attend just to even see “what happens” this man doesn’t deserve a single dime. You are all giving him exactly what he wants.
exactly
Average American intelligence.
Those who don't study history are doomed to try to create the same failed festival again
Yep 😂
exactly
Netflix had a documentary: FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened.
They were promised gourmet cooking and wooden thatched huts. They lived in emergency tents and got styrofoam containers with cheese-buns in them!
Yes I saw it ! Send later they even got locked in the airport when they tried to leave it must have been horrific...
Omg. I need to find it and watch it. I just saw the trailer. It looks like a bomb documentary. Thanks for the recommendation
I love how he's like but this time I can actually do all that stuff and make a island music festival with models and big Time stars
I imagine something like burning man meets Coachella and I can't wait to see it fail
I watched the Hulu documentary. It made me want to hear Billy and his lawyers' side of the story. I remember the doc featuring everyone who worked for him throwing him under the bus while making themselves look completely innocent. I find it hard to believe that Billy made every decision in a vacuum without anyone else's input. It was an interesting documentary except it made everyone else involved look like they had no control over anything happening and had nothing to do with the festival's failure.
American Greed did a show on this too. They interviewed Bahamian construction workers who put in 16-hour days trying to build the place from nothing.
I *almost* pitied them for never getting paid, until they described Billy F showing them (fake) bank statements with promises to make payroll ... later.
They should've walked off the job and called a lawyer.
If he TRULY spent 6 months in solitary confinement, that WOULD make him crazy.
Yup, it makes almost everyone crack and they lose their minds.
He did lose his mind
I had to checked it. It is legal on USA torture people like that? 0_o
Isn’t solitary confinement supposed to be for violent or dangerous people? That line was the big red flag for me
@@natepultorakmusic928 I was thinking the same thing. How could this dude have ended up in the worst of the worst place you can be in prison for 6 months? Seems unlikely.
This guy is nothing but trouble. My thoughts to the people from the Bahamas who were scammed by him. He needs to pay them back now.
yep
If insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results, then the people who bought tickets to the first Fyre Festival and Fyre Festival 2.0 are insane.
Lol
I'd be highly interested in that list. Help us out, Snowden.
When the first Fyre the promoters said the people would live like PABLO ESCOBAR, he neglected to say that it was the part of Pablo's life when he was on the run before being unalived by the police 😂😂😂
This is what happens when you never tell your kid, “No!”.
Internet Historian, eat your heart out!!!
To me He explained it wayyyy better than Netflix 😂 (even though I haven’t watched the Netflix documentary).
One of my favorite videos haha.
I like your pfp 😂
Can't wait for a new upload.
The main guy’s title on Google is “Fraudster” 😂
It’s no surprising he can trick people again. We live in a world where people eat detergent pods for fun, and they can’t decide on what a boy or girl is🤦♂️
agree about the detergent pods not the boy or girl thing
It is a sad world. The truest pill is the black pill. People don’t like to hear it, but that’s reality.
I agree on both
I watched the Netflix documentary. It looked absolutely insane. I can’t believe it’s happening again.
that day of Fyre Festival was the best day of that year for those that were on twitter laughing at the situation
Hi Brett. I’ve been binge-watching your channel whilst recovering from a major operation, and your well-researched and balanced commentary is a breath of fresh air. Such a wise head on young shoulders - I'm learning a lot and you’ve restored my faith in the next generation. Thank you. Shame I can’t get Ruff Greens in Germany though…
I hope you recover well🤍
Thank you 🙏@@alissakain9302
I remember at some point in the documentary they said he had already committed fraud before (something related to a credit card or payment company or something similar), and he was using the money earnt with Fyre to pay back the people that were suing him for that first fraud.
I think he is going to do the same and use this third fraud to pay back for Fyre "1.0" (2nd fraud)
No way i believe hes sold out. That's a tactic to make ppl think it's a good idea to buy tickets because "everyone else is doing it".
And if that island is letting him come play them again then it's on them this time
Exactly. It’s a very specific scarcity tactic. Like what are the odds 69000 people are on a wait list or that he likes the number 69 and made up the number? He is simply trying to print money by selling merch or non refundable tickets. Same tactic as before.
Basically, they sold out (10 tickets he bought himself), so he can sell merchandise... and get his name out. never trust a sociopath. I hope all those scammed do recover all their money back from this hustler.
One of the traits of a psychopath is that they do not change their ways when punished. It just doesn't phase them at all. He spent his 7 months in solitary confinement writing his Mein Kompf.
And some people are going to fall for it again.
I knew I saw you somewhere😂 I just saw your comment on the Sambucha short.
@@AdamPruett I comment on a bunch of em, which one?
@@macngeeseyt6029the one he posted a few minutes ago.
Brett: “I wouldn’t touch Billy McFarland with a ten foot pole!” 😮
Also Brett: “I signed up for Fyre Festival 2.0. Who knows, maybe I’ll get a return on my investment!” 😂😊
😆🇭🇹 my butt would chill on beach with my Panama Fedora and drink a lemonade in Dominican republic and Haiti where I’m from
I think she was being sarcastic. It’s clear she doesn’t buy it. She just wants to be the fly on the wall for the sh*tshow.
Anyone who invests in this second scam deserves to lose their money.
I like to think that if I was trying to scam people for a second time I would at least not call it by the same name. "Hey, remember SCAM? I'm bringing you SCAM 2!"
Fyre Festival 2: This time it REALLY won't happen!
When I heard that tickets were sold out, I literally remarked about how good Natural Selection is.
I will say, if you’re looking for a Fyre Festival doc, I recommend the Hulu one, not the Netflix one. Hulu doc has less conflicts of interests in it regarding who produced it so it’s a more honest light, but Netflix one is still really good.
That is the equivalent, of if someone tried to reboot the Woodstock festivals like they tried to do in 2019........
Fyre Fest the Musical, bought tickets, and never happened but got cheese toast instead 😂😂😂
There’s two types of crazy failed entrepreneurs. The dude who can sell a pencil that doesn’t have lead to someone who can’t even write. Then the dude who’s so obsessed on every detail that they never sell. Currently learning how to be more like that guy.
I've got to be honest, I liked Brett's old curtain and lighting much better. I still see some of the same lighting, but it was still better on the eyes before. The stripes on this curtain are sort of fighting with Brett's complexion, whereas the old one complemented it beautifully. Also, that is the only reference to "The Master of Disguise" I have seen in over 10 years!
Fyre Fest is up there with Dashcon and Rainfurrest with how infamous it is.
As P.T. Barnum said, "There's a sucker born every day."
You've got the gist of it, but Mr. Barnum actually said; "every *minute*."
😒
"Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me" that quote deserves to be on his merch 😅
You are the queen of thumbnails. You’re actually brilliant. Inspiring.
BRETT SLAYS LIKE ALWAYS💗
nah she does not always slay
@@TeenageDirtbag8 EXCUSE ME!?!
"sold out?" Okay. Getting on a "waitlist?" Okay. Do scammers really change their spots? No, not really. It sounds, to me, like ol' Billy is just trying to do the same things again to try and pay back the original creditors.
Honestly, I never heard of him before this video, so why would I even bother with what he tries to do?
Love your videos Brett
I have met people like this, sociopathic narcissists who compulsively lie. Once you know what they are avoid them like the plague.
They better have Blink 182 actually show up and perform this time around
We live in an era where checks, direct deposits, and cards are the way to go when moving money to other acc. Whenever an ad shows a stack of hard cash, you know it's a scam.
social media is a grifter's paradise
Trying to organize a large-scale music festival on a remote island without having previous experience organizing festivals was like trying to climb Mt. Everest when you've never even scaled a hill. In shorts and sandals.
He was asked about whether he would serve cheese sandwiches and he replied that he doesn't get to make any decisions. He's just selling the rights to the hype, it doesn't seem like he's going to be involved in actually managing or creating the festival or the musical.
There's a hiking trail in Virginia called Crabtree Falls. It's a huge cascading waterfall. The falls themselves are blocked off from the trail, but people still hop the barricades and hang out on the slippery rocks.
Well, I went there one time and there was a bit of a line to get into the parking lot. It turns out some people had hopped the barricade and slipped, falling quite a ways and severely injuring themselves -- emergency services had to shut down the trail for a bit to peel them off the rocks.
Well, once that was all over we walked the trail, and what did we see? More people doing yoga past the barricades on the waterfall. When I mentioned that not 20 minutes before someone had slipped and suffered severe injury, they laughed jovially and kept on going.
All this is to say that some people are mentally deficient beyond all comprehension. Some of those people are also rich. They were probably *stuck on the desert island* in the first Fyre festival, yet they're the first in line for the second one. After a certain point you just have to cut the umbilical chord. Make them wire you a million dollars before you'll send food and water the next time they screw up.
Also around the same time Hulu released a documentary which actually features Billy on camera called "Fyre Fraud" and it's equally hilarious as it shows some unique insider perspectives.
He and Elizabeth Holmes would have been the perfect power/scammer couple!
I think he should have legally been required to tattoo "Liar" on his forehead and release his "waiting" list to expose his BS and anyone willing to fall for this stupidity for a collective naming and shaming.
Once a scammer always a scammer.😂
I live in the Bahamas, and this is a mess.
Didn’t the SEC say couldn’t be in charge of anything ever again? That means he’s using someone else to do this all through
How is doing the exact same scam instantly on release NOT instantly violate his parole?????
If anyone wants to see a great summary of what happened with the first fyre fest, internet Historian! He has an amazing video on it, super funny! How editing is insane too.
Love internet Historian he's awesome. I've been a huge fan for years
Brett is literally the only person in the world with reason. I love her videos.
Try Misha Petrov...far more real.
not sure about that but he is right on this thing
BRUH THEY DOING IT AGAIN 💀
PYRT Billy
Iron *pyrite* (a.k.a. _fool's gold)_
Why give this man your money... again?
This is basically a case of people getting their ego artificially inflated to the point they think they know and are an expert on everything. Dude was around a bunch of "influencers" probably had a big following of his own. So he came up with an awesome idea. Problem is he didn't know wtf he was doing, hired a bunch of unprofessional people, he had no idea how to manage anything and there was failure at every level.
This sounds like the end of Project X, where the guy responsible for ruining an entire neighborhood with a house party just says he's throwing another one🤣
This is the example of why sending people to prison doesn’t fix the behavior you sent them to prison to get.
Giving “We’ll give you part of Czechoslovakia but no more military actions” vibes
Masks. Lockdowns. Fyre festival. Holy fuck it’s 2020 all over again 😱
Okay I was in a psychiatric hospital with the dude who did a three-month stint in solitary... No way that guy did anytime in solitary. I mean unless it was solely to protect him because he's so wealthy or something.
You know it's not a wise idea when they start out with, "this all started after my 7th month stint in solitary"
He either said it wrong and only spent 7 months in. Or he said it correctly and that was only his 7th month in and doesn't want you to actually know how long he was in there.
I didn't know this even happened in the first place. Majority of the time I was always told never go to music festivals that promise big things. Local festivals that have been around for years and expect the average person to pay less than 50$ to see multiple bands tend to be legit.
I can't wait to see Internet Historian's video on this inevitable disaster.
People do not only take photos from train crashes, they PAY to be in one 🤦♀️
He definitely didnt spend 6 months in solitary and still get out before his sentence was over. You dont get out early unless you have good behavior in custody.
Well yeah he had good behaviour. He's a white collar scammer, he's not going to shiv someone for their potatoes. White collar criminals always get off early because of good behaviour.😂
Brett's arms are literally butter. I literally love her. Literally. 💗💗💗
Internet Historian was the best coverage of the first one.
Maybe he just really misses prison and wants to return as soon as possible. If that's the case.. solid plan doing this again.
hey Brett, you are perfect for the role of snow white.
Yup, she is. Ben Shapiro is the perfect Prince Charming
They even showed us the documentary at school back then (in the Netherlands might I add) we were all so quiet afterwards cause it was such a crazy story 😅🤣
The guy kinda reminds you of hunter or brandon himself. An aimless felon that just keeps coning and victimizing willing fools knowing that they will never be held accountable.
7:03 "wrecked havoc" should be "wreaked havoc" (rhymes with REEK).
Whoever buys these tickets deserves what is coming
Ja Rule being involved in the first Fyre festival should have been enough of a warning that this was a scam.
She’s going for journalism
So, a quick look at the scam site that is selling the tickets(Posh) reveals that the fine print literally says that there's no event.
Brett is a fire festival fan confirmed
At this point, everyone that got a ticket and goes and they have a horrible experience again they deserve to get mocked and don't deserve their money back at all.
Brett trying to go there makes me feel kinda weirded out
Even if this time its legit, I wouldnt want to give a fellon like him any money
I really enjoy the fact that Brett is saying all these things like will people be crazy enough to buy tickets or will be con these suckers again and she follows up with I’m on the wait list to go
Brett is gonna be the documenter
If he is really trying to make amends then I support him. He seems weird, but if he's trying to raise money so that he can refund the fake tickets OR so he can put on the show for real this time for those who already bought the fake tickets then I think thats a good thing. He has to do something to help the people he's harmed and if his name can still raise money I say go for it.
Cant wait for the Internet Historian video on the second one!
Hmm…I’d like to see proof that there are actual people who have “tickets”.
Even Sam Bankmann Fried seems like sympathetic lamb next to this Mc Farland guy😂
Between Billy Eichner, Billy Porter and now Billy McFarland.. I think it's safe to say that Billy is the male (for the former two "male") equivalent of the female name Joy.
Sorry to the based Billys out there, but just go by Bill or William from now on.
This is the only definition of "insanity" that I will accept anymore, thank you Far Cry.
Brett Cooper might actually be the most captivating human that has ever existed.
nah
If it means another hilarious documentary like the documentaries on the first one, I can't wait.
Those local workers were completely exploited after were worked into the ground, never paid, disgusting.
If billy didn’t spend and planned the event better. Would we be saying the same thing now ?
It sounds like a new version of Woodstock
Aww, c'mon Brett. You're not trusting him! You're walking into his bullsh*t with eyes wide open! XDD It's like opening a glitter bomb on purpose.
I am getting Psych vibes from him making a business called Pyrt hahah basically tell everyone your plan so they won’t think it’s true 😂
