• When Young Kids Do Har...
When Young Kids Do Hard Time is a fully produced prison documentary featuring the stories of young kids sentenced to adult prison. Elsewhere on our channel viewers have seen interviews with brothers Blade and Bennie Reed. What people haven't seen is the fully produced documentary on their story, along with a few others featured in this film, When Young Kids Do Hard Time. Throughout the film, viewers get a look at what life is like for young kids who have been sentenced to the adult prison system. In the prison featured in this documentary, Wabash Valley Correctional Facility, all youth under the age of 18 are housed in the Youth Incarcerated as Adults cellblock (YIA). But once a youth turns 18, they are immediately transferred to the adult prison population, either at Wabash or one of the state's other adult prisons.
Stories also include kids who are serving time in the adult prison Segregation cellblock after getting in fights in the YIA cellblock, and interviews with adult prisoners who are serving life sentences who talk about what's still ahead for kids who are staring down decades behind bars.
Note; Blade and Bennie Reed are still incarcerated. Blade was charged with possession of a dangerous device/material which added 2 additional years to his sentence. His projected release date is 2027. Bennie's released date is currently set for 2037.
Adam Contreras was returned to court authority upon release in 2020.
Demonae Lewis was released from prison but rearrested and sentenced to 50 years in prison in 2018 for attempted murder and unlawful firearm possession by a serious felon. His projected release date is 2063.

![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
I was sentenced to 49yrs to life when I was 17. I did 24yrs in adult prison in California. I got out July 2021. Prison changes you., you either learn or get worse. But I do believe most kids that go to prison and spend decades behind them walls are much more mature mentally then your average prisoner. I’m enjoying my life, I love my freedom and enjoy the simple things in life.
Stay positive! Glad you're out and doing well:)
Welcome home brother 🙏
Glad you’re doing well , would love to hear more of you’re story
10 yrs at this place ....suoermax to 4 side back and forth young n wild u already kmow..ya change is real I do real good now ....u have to want it
The system is disproportionately punitive. A 17 year old needs support and guidance, not a 50 year sentence. Anyway, good luck for the future.
Every kid needs a positive And responsible adult in their life
That's not what the party in power thru cheating in this country thinks
"Got locked up when I was 10 got out when I was 11.. never got locked up again until I was 13"..
Wtf🙄🙄
U should not of been a little brat then
In Bolivia?
As a guest that guy is probably always going to be in prison.. he is gay for the stay and doesn’t plan on going anywhere
Him taking accountability for his actions shows he’s grown as a person.
p
Exactly take responsibility for your actions. Thx for truthfulness boy
The brothers are genuinely not bad people
Mischievous at best & slow
Going to rob beer & end up killing someone in a panic
Damn shame
homies hairline got completely pushed all the way back 6:45
@@TheNYCGoldenGlovertf?
I almost felt sorry for the brothers.. until I found out they killed an 87 year old man and slit his wife's throat. They went into someone's home, armed with a gun. I can't sympathize with that. A tough childhood does not warrant murder.
yeah feel bad for the kid tho he was 13 at the time
@@krookedworld oof.. thats touchy. I'd like to think at 13 you know what you're doing. But then again. Only 13... shits sad
I had a tough upbringing and I would like to say I turned out an incredibly empathetic caring person who now works in a Carehome. I’ve never felt the need to do any crimes, it’s their choice they did that and because of that, they pay the consequences
34:30 are they smirking about what they did?
10 year developmentally is plenty old enough to know right from wrong. The youngest in my family at the moment is 2, the next is 7 and a few months. The next is almost 8, if I asked them what would happen if someone ‘cut’ someone’s neck like he did, they would say without having to think “they will di*” I’ve taught thousands of children who have had some awful lives, they still knew right from wrong. In schools children walk around with scissors held safely, they don’t walk around with the blades pointing out. Children know sharp things cause harm.
I was in Johnson county juvenile with the younger brother him and his brother think it's cool what they did for whoever reads this just know that the entire E POD gave him an extremely awful time while he was with us till they moved him to another pod I hope he gets the same or worse in Wabash
The way he called her granny and she said I wish you all the best luck in the world wow that broke me
this is what happens when you scroll on RUclips and now I've ended up here 😂😂😂😂
What's sad is that these kids aren't stupid. They are well spoken, and they have decent heads on their shoulders, at the very least. At the end of the day, it all comes down to who you surround yourself with. They are young enough to understand the impact that these choices will have on their life long-term, thankfully. I hope they learn from their actions and return to society as changed individuals.
Man did you don't understand there life is over if ? If? They get out one will be 70 another almost 50 years old with class a aggravated felony on their record. that mean very limited chance to get job rent a house etc .
@@didrivekopel2511end of a life imprisoned behind bars
They are a product of their environment :( these kids need love and good homes.
Kids that age can understand the impact of what they do on a superficial level but not on a deep level e.g. lasting anguish or affected family members etc.
@@didrivekopel2511 Nonsense. They can become president.
I don’t know about you but I do be watching documentaries while I work just because they calm me down plus I get to learn from other people mistakes, plus I find it interesting to see another perspective of how hard life can be and how blessed I am to have my family and was raised in a better environment that most of these kids.
Yeah ì watch these at work too all the time
Got locked up when I was 14 got out before I turned 15 jail ain't no joke man stay safe and stay out of trouble life's too short
@jayy_tooawww6691 - Simple but true. Appreciate you watching and making this comment.
David I am SO HAPPY For you ❤ and will 🙏 every day for your Happiness. My Son is Innocent but He just got Sentenced to55 years. I am ❤ 💔 broken. He spent time in Juvenile system. Then shot times in Adult correctional system Was doing Great. Even has A CD 💿 READY to release. Reading Your Story I had to reach out To You. PLEASE PLEASE enjoy your freedom.I don't Have Much But her for You.I love my Son And will be here for him.
God I just pray for all the young children in these type of facilities
How sad that the older brother allowed his younger brother to commit such a horrible crime, cutting the throat of an 84 yr old woman while he shot her husband.
I guess there are two different aspects to prison punishment: One is to punish the offender, the second is to keep society safe from them. And I am sorry to say that I would not want murderers near me or my family and friends. 🤔
We live in a sick world
1 murder the other other didn't she survived and to be honest they wanted beer and the old guy shot him was he ment to take another bullet? Without retaliating if anything you blame the country for having firearms in houses this could have ended with losing a beer instead of shooting a kid the the kid reflex back to shooting the old guy the wife cut throat is bad but he was 13 and 30 years. adults who rape and beat the shit out of there wife's don't even get 30 years @@chatita9527
it's sick to think there's a 'soul', which is the source of wicked deeds and must be punished
Even if my child had gone way off the rails and I thought there was no hope, I couldn’t imagine not coming to see my own son in EIGHT YEARS… poor kid has nothing to works towards to get out of the cycle
Hopefully they keep him forever
Im so glad i found these documentaries. Soon i will be volunteering at a Juvenile facility as well as going to school and study criminal justice. I know its definitely not going to be easy but im going into this strong and hard and i pray to God i can make some type of great guidance to these young individuals. Please pray for me yall 🙏🏿
@oliviarodgers8208 - Thank you for watching our videos and sharing your story. You are right -- the work isn't easy but it is so vitally important! Making a difference in the life of a young person is noble work. Best of luck to you as you continue your studies and volunteer efforts. Bravo!
@@CalamariProductionsthank you so much for the encouraging words. God bless you 😊
When the reed brothers met i was cracking up 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The lady officer, he called ‘Granny’, prisons worldwide need more like her, especially youth facilities
FINALLY A WELL THOUGHT INTELLIGENT COMMENT!!!
If Blade gets with the wrong people and gets no help while in prison I can invison him being a monster and never getting out
Good
He will definitely be a target for sex offenders when he goes to adult prison. He's in for a big shock. 😮
So sad, my brother was locked up at thirteen and was transferred to adult prison when he turned old enough, where he spent another few years. He got out a couple times but his freedom didn't last forever. He went on the run and was facing over 15 years. Well they found him overdosed a couple weeks ago.. I just feel like a lot of these kids never really had a chance
@Insightful Entertainment - wow, that is such a sad, sad story. So sorry to hear about your brother. Being locked up at 13 is, in itself, a terrible policy. Kids at that age are far too young to be thrown into that world and be expected to emerge better off. Research proves it. We firmly believe there are much more effective ways to treat kids who have committed offenses than simply throwing them behind bars. We've also learned a lot from the family members of crime victims, many of whom advocate for a different approach when it comes to juvenile subjects. Really appreciate you taking the time to post such a personal comment. It's only by sharing stories like this that people begin to understand the depths of these issues.
@@CalamariProductions thank you
So sorry to hear that!
Blade looks like the Artful Dodger. Cute kid.
stay strong brother 🙏🏾
i feel more sympathy for blade than i do his brother. it was terrible what the brothers did and i'm not trying to make excuses, but the trauma that led to his age regression must have been terrible to live through, and with a drunk brother with irrational thoughts and used his trauma response for his own gain. man that's terrible. i hope when he gets out he finds a proper life for himself, filled with people who don't take advantage of him for acting so much younger by no fault of his own.
They were both kids, stop it, both went through the system and abuse, just because one looks more vulnerable than the other you choose no compassion? All you people on here are conditional with everything, what a great example to these kids today!
As ruff as my life gets I watch this to remind my self someone else has it harder so I appreciate every little thing we take for granted like hot water the privacy of ur shower room ur bed food thank you lord Jesus for everything 🙏🏽
God Bless you and yours ❤️…. I too am here with the same appreciation 🙏…. Merry Christmas
I can relate bro, hang in there,keep working and believing. Wish you a prosperous 2022 man. God Bless and Jesus Loves You🙏🏽❤
you a real one homeboy ⚕️
Real shit💯
Someone else always had it harder
Hell, 6 days in county on traffic violations was enough for me, plus being into WAY more serious things and having buddies gettin locked up for actual stretches was enough for me.
Wow he failed his little brother in the WORST way😞 how you tell a child to cut someone’s throat?
U should see colt now. He’s got a Instagram and RUclips page. He’s fucking jacked. Like Arnold jacked💪🏻
Apparently just like that. They honestly should not be allowed to see each other. They both got life sentences for good reason
@@peytonbrandon6318 really he’s out?? what’s his insta?
@@bubbles4096 lundyxtreme
Yes he did I don't think he would have got in trouble if his brother didn't tell him to do it .They did wrong it was awful what they did . It's 2022 kids keep getting worse .😓
I feel bad for both brothers they had no chances what they did was so wrong at the same time they was misguided kids pray they learned and see freedom 🥀
The grown men in prison act the same as these young kids. Most everyone in there never grown up. They're all like rebellious teens
This is true. They not only did not grow up, they still do not repent for their horrendous crimes they committed and they show no empathy or sadness and sorrow for the suffering they caused their victims.
Don’t agree with prosecuting children as adults period. If a 12 year old commits murder then the adults taking care of them/educating them/protecting them have failed in their responsibility. Where are their prison sentences? All kids have a warped view of reality, and that’s why we don’t let them, vote, drive, have sex etc. The only reason this didn’t happen to you or me is because we had solid adults in our lives.
I know we all have choices & repercussions but man...
Blades story hits my heart.
Why? Do you relate to a killer?
@@SullysSmoking She's trash like the criminals. She's the kind of women who raise these criminals.
Raped and abandoned as a baby..
Mentally slow..
The maturity of a sub 10 year old..
Followed his big brother at 13 to get beer & was drunk...
Good & in better circumstances kind natured..
I've been working with every level of troubled young man there is, and this kid does not belong in prison. I would bet 100% of my experience he should be in psychiatric for a stint then put in a structured work release program
Your instincts are good
@@TheNYCGoldenGlover100% agree 30 years is just bs for blade like bloody hell kids now days shoot or stab people and get less time
I was 16 when I placed in a high security prison in Oklahoma called osp or big Mac... I fell through a loop hole in the system. I was supposed to go into a boot camp but due to my high flight risk they placed me in the walls... I spent almost a year before my lawyer found me and got me transferred out... it's really hard on a young person to be in a place like that... we all make mistakes and shouldn't suffer forever for it... God knows those who are truly sorry...
@benjimandover8072 - Really appreciate you posting your own personal story. You are right -- it can take a long time to see legal movement once you're in the system. A lot of young people don't have lawyers and languish even more. It's a tough place, that's for sure. Thanks again for sharing your story and taking the time to be here with us on our channel.
Did you change? I have a different thought. Suffer for our mistakes and we are less likely to repeat them. You must have done something pretty serious to get prison time. Hope you learned from it.🙏
My brother just got out of prison on a 20 year charge. He was in there since I was 5. I’m 25 now. Crazy man. He was only out of his cell once every other day or some shit.
That young dude is like the prequel to “sling blade”. The similarities are uncanny.
@sint5990 - we've had several people comment the same. It really is surreal.
I've seen that other documentaries where that warden has been in there. And he's really a good caring person. He really cares about all these kids.
@wandamiller4473 - Yes, you're talking about Mike Dempsey. He's a great guy and truly does care about kids. It shows in the work he continues to do as Exec. Director of the Council of Juvenile Justice Administrators. We appreciate you giving him a shout out!
Man I feel so damn bad for the little brother. He was asked to do a terrible thing and I do feel for the old man and his wife but he really needs help he doesn’t need to be locked up around other convicts. They’re the only ppl he has to look up too and a building full of criminals aren’t the best role models
Exactly this. This is what many people don't understand. There are two types of offenders, the leaders and followers. The ones who commit crimes out of selfishness and the ones who do it because they follow the only ones they have to look up to. And the worst thing you can do is to put these kids around more bad examples. You take those same kids who follow, giving them good examples to follow, and they wouldnt be doing crimes. The system should not be so black and white overall. There are so many people who can be rehabilitated and should be. While there are people who are simply bad people who are never going to be safe for society, and those are the ones who should be given the long term and life sentences. But the ones who can be, should be treated differently and rehabilitated instead of punished only.
It breaks my heart for these kids and the families.🙏🙏
It’s there fault
does your heart break for their victims?
These documentaries are fantastic! Very well done! My heart aches for Blade! I would love to listen to his story more!
@wisconsinwendi Z - Thanks for your nice words about our documentaries! Grateful for your viewership. We hope to reinterview Blade sometime in the future. The changes over the years are pretty dramatic. It’s a sad, sad case for everyone involved.
Semper Fi brother.
I had a really rough childhood and life isn't easier as an adult want to be friends?
The 84 year old man was my great uncle
I don't feel sorry for Blade at all. Take him out of the gene pool.
Is this new content?
When was it recorded?
Am hooked already
@d d - This is from our archive, but if you read the description section of the video, you'll see updates on all the kids featured at the bottom of the description. Thanks for being here with us!!
@@CalamariProductions Bennie is scheduled to be released in 2037?
His was reduced?
@@tp8615 He received a 60 year sentence in 2009. Due to Indiana’s sentencing code, you can earn one day credit for one day served. For most felonies, you can earn one day credit for 3 days served, which means you could be released after serving 75 percent of your time. Hope this helps explain a bit better.
Can you add the production dates of your content? It will make it no less amazing, just helps me enjoy it more by knowing when it was happening
This is from awhile ago..these kids are grown adults almost 30 yrs old now
This is an episode of Lockup. This and the other video with this title...
Most of these are hella old
Follow up most are out 15 years later and doing awesome
On their CCTV you can see that it's around October of 2011.
We gotta gi e the 1 kid props for staying out from age 11-13 thats impressive
Kids, life isn't a video game where its game over" do a serious crime , its LIFE OVER
Damn how you get released then go back for 50 YEARS
@Malik - Agree. Crazy.
Except Indiana is a 50/50 earned time, meaning you only do half the years with good behavior
You can tell Blade is messed up! The poor boy looks stuck in time! I hope the best for that boy! I know he done very bad but that boy needs real counseling during his sentence!
He's not messed up from his crime he's just messed up from when his mom used to drink while she was pregnant lol
He's probably brain damaged from in utero alcoholism. He's never going to progress. Take him and the brother out of the gene pool .
I agree...Blade had the mind of a 10 yr old and executive decision making was highly impaired. He was following the direction of his older brother, who, was just pissed that the elderly man shot him first. Blade did commit an egregious act but I feel that he is far less culpable...just a baby. 10 years would have been appropriate. 30 is ridiculous because he won't know how to function when he's released.
The younger brother blade reminds me of Billy Bob Thornton in the movie Sling Blade
He’s autistic for Gods sake a blind man can see that
It’s interesting how these kids try to abide by prisoner rules, but not rules of living in society.
Much, much tougher consequences for violating prison rules.
Society let them down and they switched up!!!
God bless these young boys , something tragic had to have happened to them to magi fessed all this hate and anger in them , I pray they get the best help .❤️🙏🇨🇦
I been in prison on and off sense I was 14 I'm now 35 and finally I'm home free and no paperwork
Very sad to see people in these comments that don’t understand they could’ve been in the same situation if they had a traumatized past, no good role models, and no love at home.
Still can’t release them if it’s not safe for society
Sad and predictable
So what’s your point?
@@Star-qh5wpduh 🙄
Granny is so sweet!
I thought the same thing
You or too 👌
But businesslike.
Prison CAN rehabilitate some inmates....IF they want to be cooperative and absorb the opportunity to makes the right changes.

Good documentary ! Are there going to be anymore updates on Justin ?
I really don't know what you would do with these boys .They killed and almost killed an elderly couple .Sad for all involved .✝️💜☮️

It’s true you can’t blame it on your family but at the same time your upbringing plays a huge role… how can you succeed in life if you have no positive role models
We have a saying here in the UK...Your a product of you're environment. In other words if your around bad people or hard drug's then the sad fact is that you most probably end up in prison at some point, mind you the UK ain't as punitive as the US we don't have that 3 strikes and your lifed off or the death penalty here but our prison's are brutal one of the favourite methods of messing some one up is by boiling suger in the kettle and throwing it at someone it then sticks to your skin burning people and self made shanks then getting plugged in the neck or kidneys some bad shit. 🏴🇬🇧

These kids may be kids, but they’re much more goddamn mature and talk like men more so than a lot of guys and people my age I know. Some of em sound to have good hearts and have taken responsibility for the wrongs they’ve done. What they have done may be terrible and absolutely tragic for the victims families, they at least sound like they’re trying to get their life straight and headed in the right path. Crazy how one mistake like that that took all but a few minutes to take part in could completely change your life or even end it
I’ve been locked up in facility’s housing minors charged as adults. My cell was a kid that had just turned 18, already had been there for 2 years, and serving 35 years
What he did?
From what I could find Aurelious Howard Woods (who I am pretty sure is Aurelious Howard Woods Jr.) has been doing pretty well. He had some charges since, but most of them got dismissed. He did get convicted of drunk driving in 2022, he had 1 year probation which he completed.
@ps474249 - Thanks for watching, and yes, that is the latest update we have too!

I feel so sorry for the younger brother
The one the sliced the 80 yr old woman's throat?
@@kimmccabe1422yes that one!
I would love to follow the brothers' story. That would make a crazy movie
It's a sad story all the way around.
Just got out may 25 I was 16 when I was charged with robbery and battery that gave me 8 years.. you either learn or don't learn from it 💯
Appreciate you telling your own experience @Nash River. Tough lesson to learn but as you say, hopefully it's a lesson that lasts.
That sucks. I'm 17, and couldn't imagine spending my youth in prison. The American system is draconian. In my country, if a 16 or 17-year-old commits a robbery, they will get at most half a year of probation and a small fine. Who the hell puts a kid in a prison for robbery. That's disgusting.
I hope you have a great life now Hun. I wish you loads of luck and lots of happiness. Take care of yourself x
19:56 they are not children, they are young adults, children are 12 years and under. A 15 year old person knows right from wrong, they know fire burns.
The Death Sentence and a swift Execution is for cold blooded murderers, I was shocked to find out that 50% of the people In prison are in for cold blooded murder and the courts have given them playtime/life in prison while the victims worry that the murderer will escape prison and come for them.
He was 13 years old scared and confused and gets told to cut someones throat.. He doesn't deserve 30years, he deserves rehabilitation with love and guidance
your common sense would have the conservative right reeling !
What was he saying to his brother when they were done with their visitation ?
Thank you granny
Yeah good luck
The younger brother is giving me, Sling Blade vibes.
💯
Some Billie Eilish vibes
Look at the eyes of the older brother? Very cold and stoic. He will be paroled one day.
Ya in 45 years - 2066
Probably medicated to the eyeballs
I spent over 3 years in Juvenile Corrections in Virginia. It is not fun and games. So much stuff changes while you are locked up.
fmr police need not be charged for an acquaintance with under 1gm residual meth. The war on drugs is not effective & never worked under Pres Reagan! He traded arms with Central America. DEA is a huge waste o f DOJ $. The Secret Service father of my cousin did far more. I tested & got hired on the the US Marshals list, before a large Illinois police dept hired me & trained me at the Illinois State Police Academy.
For what have you been convicted?
Thank you soo much for all your efforts Calamari. All the excellent changes it presented. Assistance to juveniles. How sad is generational curses. We will be praying more from South Africa 🇿🇦
Yeah because prayer seems to be changing a lot. Best do actual practical solutions in my opinion
Sad your Mother had to see you in prison the last 24 years of her life. Kids stay away from crime. This is hell, being locked up for real. You Cant put a price on your freedom. ✌️
40 years for a first time offender for robbery? WTF?! At 18 years old? That’s at absolute most maybe 5 years, maybe.
That's a draconian sentence. What the hell is wrong with America? If I commit a robbery, I would get half a year of probation and a small fine in my country. That's the correct approach. That's why our crime rates are so low, and our system is humane and working.
@@abcdefg4570 Shorter sentences lead to lower crime rates? That sounds a little odd.

Any update on Blake Reed? I was reading abit about his time at the prison 2010 and it did not sound well
He's scheduled to get released in 2027
A lot of people have horrendous childhoods and are terribly abused, but dont end up murdering an elderly man and cutting his wife's throat. I honestly cant really feel any sympathy for those two kids
You can tell the older brother is evil and twisted, the younger one is kind at heart but just has a lot of issues
Kind heart????? Slit the throat of an elderly woman!!! Insanity - “he has a kind heart”- 🤷🏼♀️
@@lindamccracken8235 agreed. I mean being caught up in the moment is one thing, but to actually go through with it? It's 2 different things. I've been through some major trauma but I never went over the line. I could've but never did

Which one of your videos is Colt's first?
I wanna know what Blade’s IQ was at 13? History of drug addicted parents, abuse, and he seems to be regurgitating what his brother has told him. Does he deserve to be free, NO….but 30 years at 13?!? Yet again, the amazing state of Indiana throwing the keys away with the kids. But just the poor, mentally challenged ones.
@Nrs Jeni - There were many mental health professionals weighing in on Blade's case at the time, and they tended to agree with you. If our memory serves us, he was diagnosed autistic (among other things). Due to this and so many other factors, he has had a very difficult time in prison. We hope to do an update on him in the near future. Thank you for asking and posting.
I know these videos have been up for 2+ years but do yall know that the audio cuts outs for bits in the middle and at the end?
@margaretthym8234 - Apologies for that. There was an issue during upload with music being removed and it left audio gaps. We are working on re-editing and reuploading. Thank you!
a lot of the comments on these videos show just how easily some people can be manipulated.
Not to make light of the situation, but I find it ironic that the kids name is Blade and he used a knife. 😢
Only America would charge a developmentally delayed 13 year old as an adult…. It’s just sickening
Nah, not only america lol. There are much worse places
Yea only in America- lol

Sickening. I'm 17, and couldn't imagine being in prison. Absolutely sickening to throw these boys in prison. 60 years for a robbery gone wrong at 16 years old. If that happened in my country, Finland, they would get a couple of years in prison (at most), and they would spend most of the sentence in an open prison, going to school.
At your age, YOU KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG.. DON'T DO THE CRIME AND YOU WON'T DO THE TIME..
BE PRODUCTIVE, NOT DESTRUCTIVE!
@@savedbyJESUS777 Humans know right from wrong at the age of 11. However, it's the prefrontal lobe, which is responsible for making rational decisions and controlling impulsiveness. The prefrontal lobe doesn't start maturing very much until the age of 18, and isn't matured until a person is 22.
The American system is still stuck in the 1800s; focused on punishment rather than rehabilitation, although it would be in everyone's best interest to rehabilitate such young individuals to become productive members of society, although they made very bad decisions.
Your way of thinking is exactly why the American system sucks.
@@savedbyJESUS777 You sound stupid. My uncles has been in prison majority of his life due to drugs. The system just chews you up then spits you back out. No sympathy.
@@savedbyJESUS777 If we all got what we deserved, every single human would be in hell for eternity.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Finland.... your funny
