the fact that they do fake-police tests on their own gang is soo risky, but also shows how seriously they take loyalty
I didn't get that. So the gangs made fake police to intimidate their employees? For what?
@kelina aaa One-sided loyalty.

I start sweating whenever I cross a border, and I'm not even smuggling anything. I can't imagine the stress if I had 150kgs of hard drugs in the car.
Right!?!?
@@Tricklarock I got stopped at the Swiss border on my motorbike a few years back. Border control checked my bags and everything. They did NOT check under my motorbike seat. Which is weird, because there was nothing there.
I would bet they probably take small doses of sedatives to relax.
@@Thebluesky0311 oh, Valium or Xans are a must when, ummm, uh... crossing borders.
Imagine that that is worth over 1.5 milion dollars
Reading between the lines I think this guy took a deal for no jail time in exchange for information. Which explains his paranoia about the gang catching up to him.
wow we've got a real detective here
I would rather live a simple life than looking over my shoulder in fear every day
They’ll find him eventually. I lived close to a very “bougie” city in the DFW area. We had a guy get shot dead in the middle of the town shopping square, middle of the day, people EVERYWHERE. He was with his wife and young kids. While they were putting all their shopping bags in their SUV, 2 masked men drove up, calmly walked up to him, and shot him. Witnesses said they were in and out like that. They still don’t know who did it and probably never will. Turns out, the guy that was shot used to be a cartel lawyer and then turned on them. He and his family were living under new identities and the mfs still found him.

Real talk from this man. There is nothing glamorous about being a drug trafficker. You're going to ruin your life.
Thats the only truth he told,all the rest is a lie and besides of that...that line he just took from someone else that you gone ruin your life...
@@high5compliments45 how do you know it's a lie? I've seen and heard the about the same story from other drug traffickers
That's only if you get caught.
I wouldn't mind getting sentenced to prison. if I'm in prison then I can kill pedos and murderers and stuff that are there.
@Brian Peppers heroin is a retirement drug, cocaine is a wagie drug.
Unless your a guy at the very top than 9 times out of 10 your gonna get done. And those guys at the top are police commissioners, army generals, politicians, pharmacuetical companies. They are the real pushers with power

Great job once again vice, you need to make these longer! this was intense, you guys seems to really capture that feeling as if someone is telling you directly the story.
someone was directly telling the story
@@njwtube I mean directly speaking to you in person.
👍👍👍
they can't force these people to do long interviews
Same problem as any dealer , no exit strategy , no end date . You're just thinking about the money and what will happen if you get caught .
with all that easy money pouring in and no career/trade it’s hard to leave that dangerous game….
That's the psychology of the manipulation game, you're nothing more than a pawn, for a pawn that represents a circle of shadow investors from different states.
Nacho Varga
Part of the problem is, when you start you say you will quit when you have a certain amount of euros saved up in cash under your bed. But at that point once you have it saved up, you are making thousands every day which makes it hard to quit. You tell yourself "well, at this point I'm making the same amount in one week that used to take me a full year to earn before. I have been doing this so long, I have never been caught the risk is worth it. It's small risk anyway, or else I would have been caught already." Also you learn from your past mistakes, learn how to handle everything with less risk and you start to think you have been doing it for so long that you have it figured out by now. It's seriously very hard to quit when you can just "make one last flip for an easy 10k" etc.
Yeah but its 2023 and only cash, you cant put it in your bank. Only thing you can do with cash is party and hookers
Work so hard and take so much risk to get that money just to blow it all away in one night out? Yep, that sounds like most of the dealers I've known.
🍏🍏C I A is still apparently profiting off the international trade. Their nurturing of specific cartels has been virtually out in the open.
I have been around drugs my whole life. My dad sold my whole life then I did for almost three decades. I know two real drug dealers,not nickel and dimers, that made it out with their money. One is still rolling with a sports book but left the dope alone.The other is living off his houses,trucking business and apartment buildings he bought with his dope money that he laundered through his landscaping company and house cleaning businesses. Even he did five years on a second degree murder. I do know a bunch of small time people that make a few extra bucks selling to friends that made it. It almost always ends bad.
@@terryt2728 Drug dealing is a victimless crime. it only becomes bad when they cut the substance with fentanyl.
I think they should just legalize everything for recreational use. that way we wouldn't be funding terrorists and the Cartels.
In what world is driving a few hundred miles hard work? High risk? Yup. Hard work? Hardly.
@@MS-tc2fs Go away trollface
I was trafficking in my early 20s and it was just like 4-6 Kilos or 15 pounds of weed and got away quite fair without a prison sentence and without snitching on my friends, but it still cost me a few years of my youth since I was not allowed to leave the country for 3 years.
I know it sounds cheesy but please be aware that drug trafficking gives you only a short satisfaction, the first 2 rides are fun but after that you get paranoid and believe me, in the end it’s not worth all the stress for cash only , stay safe ☝🏻

They’re probably fake man, why would they do this interview 😂 can’t understand why
@@cianelliot1183 probably they are actors, but the story could be real. It would be too dangerous for people even to speak considering that somebody could recognize them for the skin color or their accent, the way they dress etc
200 kilo for 20k euro sound like a pretty bad deal when you risk 10-12 years of your life

he was most definitely exaggerating
I was offered a muling job when I lived in Guatemala back in 2000. I was offered $5000 USD. I told the guy no way I'll do it and he punched me in the face so hard it left a mark for a week.

Good plan bro. You seem to have moved country? That’s the best thing to do.
5k USD is really nothing to us here in Europe. Obviously I’d be happy to receive 5K but that kind of money isn’t life changing. I bought my first car at 17 years old for €4.3k (which is $5k)

20 thousand euros is nothing compared to the profit they made at your risk.
legalize cocaine and heroin for recreational use
Exactly! That is why if you are dumb enough to risk your life for this, it HAS to be worth it. You need to be making at least $100,000 for EACH trip, have a figure in mind, and when you reach that exact figure then QUIT, but that's if you can! Of course anybody with a strategy like this would never be recruited, cos you are playing them at their own game.
"Only cash" well, I've never heard of a drug dealer handing out paychecks.

If we didn’t have so many American drug addicts those dealers would be out of business. The problem is the American addicts who are the customers. No customers no business. But Americans who use drugs are too addicted or stupid to know this and to stop. Drug addiction is just as addictive as our natural sins against God.
I love your episodes

Thanks buddy x
I wonder how vice found this person because I don’t see how anyone in their right mind would reach out and go on what’s basically national tv and tell so much of his former life especially if he knows they will kill him if they catch him.

If you get caught in Finland for drugs, you don’t get 15 years. You get that for double or triple homicide… ”Life sentence” is approximately that. The longest consecutive time anyone has ever done in jail in Finland, is 25 years. 25. Let that sink in.

He blew his cover to cartels by confessing that the dealer guy was always named "Jerry".... Now his former dealer friends will know about this..
The guy ain’t even telling the truth
That could of be a different name to the actual name used.
@@AshtonAU but they'll know because this guy is an ex smuggler..and don't work for them anymore and they also know that name "Jerry" was a thing when he used to work with them....
@@lakhanyadav9 Yes but what if "Jerry" was a replacement name...so not the actual one he used. It probably depends on how many ex smugglers there are, but I'm sure "jerry" wasn't the real name, or if it was, he's silly for using it, when he could (and probably did) say any name isntead.
Everyone saying that's not his name,
I think that's sort of the joke

exactly bro. also, from the netherlands to spain or germany or italy is not really that long of a drive....but all the way to finland?

It's surreal to me that I know one person who was involved in this and maybe still is. He gave me access to one of the best secret social networks. It was able to get me anything I wanted with a single message, dropped off by a different friendly normal guy every time.

I don’t think I’ll ever understand why people do such things. I know it’s a lot of money, but freedom and living without fear is so much better.
its simple, you cant afford freedom and life without money. Ever seen africa?
Well for alot of people, with no money, and nothing to really live for, freedom is not worth so much. Then all of a sudden, making hundreds of thousand in a few days can feel like it's worth the risk.
When he said that he was smiling when they caught him with just weed - he probably meant that they caught him on a minor offense and he decided to cut a deal with (Dutch?) police. That is why he can't go back to the Netherlands

Here in America the word for a drug smuggler is called a ‘Mule’ . These mules which is pretty much the same name for a donkey for those who might not know. These mules typically smuggle gigantic loads of meth , coke, fetynal , for the Mexican cartels across the border and d as I needless to say how great the risks are in this business regardless of where you live !
fetynal sounds awesome, is it a new substance?
Welp, let's hope he doesn't disappear after this
