How Drug Trafficking Actually Works — From Heroin to Cocaine | How Crime Works Marathon

The first guy is like the opposite of Walter he started dealing drugs and ended up a scholar and a teacher lol

Perhaps the best straight on no bullshit documentary on drug smuggling ever. No "moral pose" struck. Excellent.

You can tell the first gentleman is extremely smart and is very comfortable with speaking. No pauses, no um's - just clear and concise sentences. Would love to hear more stories from him.

The first guy is absolutely bang on about addiction. The idea of abstinence is absurd. You do NOT have to be ready to quit forever to start moving forward and getting to a place where you do want to quit. When you're in active addiction, thats your life. When you quit, you try to abstain forever, you sit facing your empty life with the weight on your shoulders and then the relapse comes, with shame and self hatred by the bucket load. We need to be encouraging and showing people how they can start building lives first, before they even think about the quitting process. We need to be giving people lives that they want to live, not throwing them sober and sore back into the life they run from.

The second guy could've legit be narrating a BBC documentary about heroin and then at the end say "... so that's how I was dealing heroin" and blow everyone's mind watching.

I had NO idea..... I clicked on this out of curiosity, and figured I would only last 5 minutes at most. I was transfixed. I've heard about all of this for decades, but have never actually seen it. Really enjoyed this.

As someone who has no street smarts, and has never done drugs, the second guy is fascinating to me. A whole other world.

As an addict myself, actively from age 16 to 35, now being 40; this is by far the most accurate, best told, informational documentary on drug smuggling I have ever seen. I can say first hand that the meth, cocain, and heroin stories are as truthful as they come. It is wild to watch today vs. the years of my most active addictions. A HUGE thank you to all of those who took the time and had the courage to make this film. You have no idea how truly inspirational you will be. I pray this video reaches 10 million or more.

The third guy: we used to hide the cocaine in tents. The ad that pops up on my youtube right then: are you looking for a new tent?

That first dude was absolutely awe-inspiring and I really didn’t see the comeback story happening there. I got sober in August 14, 2019. I relapsed recently and I’m struggling again but this dude just revitalized my jolt. I feel that same enthusiasm and electric energy for recovery. I also believe my life’s purpose is to help others be saved the way I was.

People say that Youtube is a pointless cesspit, but these How To tutorials could be a godsend for impoverished but ambitious people trying to get into the industry. Nicely done.

As an ex heroin addict, everything the second guy said is 100% true- including the fact that most overdoses attributed to heroin occur when alcohol and benzos are on board, not heroin alone.

The third guy was smuggling cocaine around the world but got ptsd from prison in Ecuador, that prison must be mean crazy

The fact that we get such detailed and thoughtful insight into this otherwise completely obscured world is really amazing. This is the type of content that really makes the internet a better more impactful place, and I appreciate yall time and effort that went into this.

Youtube recommended this to me, and my God is it better than any Netflix documentary I’ve watched!

started smoking since my teenage. Got addicted to cocaine. Also suffered severe depression and mental illness. It's just amazing how psilocybin mushrooms treatment actually saved my life. 3 years clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms

It's incredibly impactful to see the undercover cop's deep regret in realising that his incredible achievement and sacrifice had amounted to virtually nothing.

The best description I've heard on the behavior of addiction is- "It waits."

Good job blurring out the drugs. Seeing white powder definitely would have harmed me, and I'm so happy and grateful that you protected me from that fate.

started doing drugs since my teenage. Got addicted to heroin for over 16 years. Heroin addiction actually destroyed my life. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
