  • I get really irritated when National Geo only puts on part of an episode. Makes me NOT want to watch any NG.

  • Please read it. With all the sincerity, humility and respect the event made Gracia Burham served both Christian and Muslim while we are busy giving our excuses, while we are giving up hope, while we are cursing others, while we are saying stuff we shouldn't say, while we are discriminating other people of a different religion or faith, while we are busy doing things that is not in accordance to the teaching of The Holy Bible or The Holy Quran. The movie was based on Gracia's book.

  • To All:

    I was part of the movie we did it with NatGeo. I am very grateful. I am not posting it to argue. I am posting it so people will know. The movie was based on Gracia's book.

  • @QuantumQuacks

    Dude, USA has been training the philippines soldiers.

  • Wow, I've been on vacation to the Philippines allot of times and never had a problem cuz everyone knew my grandpa was a judge of the supreme court of the Philippines.

  • what the hell is that thing on that guys arm at 0:58..

  • What happened?

  • I was so sad when Martin died in the rescue operation. Perhaps the outcome would be much better if the US NAVY SEALS did the rescue because they are better equip, out special forces is good but just not well equipped, they don't even have bulletproof vest. =(

  • How the fuck you guys know is muslim..

    you guys dont have the proove that they muslim..

    1.proove i have that they are Cristian because most of them are philipines

    ....and please dont be racism ,,,

    is just might be a theory...

  • @orgemaggi

    It might of been near the mountains or somewhere in Mindanao you fuckin' faggot, there are literally hundreds and thousdands of Islamic filipinos

  • @orgemaggi

    the fact is, they are muslim terrorist that came from the southern part of the Philippines, which are usually muslims. North and Center of the Philippines are Christian-based. Back then, Spaniards was only able to hold Luzon (North) and Vizayas (Center). Mindanao (South) remains like other countries like Malaysia and Indonesia.

  • @orgemaggi i lived here my whole life every 1 knows the abu sayp are muslim theyre open about it its not racism its fact

  • hahaha stubborn pig she got a nice whack on the head!

  • muslim pigs?

  • how about yous all SHUT IT!

  • why do you always blame the muslims as terriost and say their names always come up as the attacks you can be wrong i mean an american could of been a terriost or a saubi arbiain or iranian or from any country the first thing when u talk about a muslim would be bomb or terriost WRONG maybe they are but their probaly not so think before you say something about race.

  • @hmj786 your'e so right! first of all nobody knows what country they are from, the second is that many americans are rasists. it's so wrong when you blame somebody or some other race as terrorist group.

  • ino rite i mean even an american white person could be a terriost

  • @hmj786 but they are tried in U.S. Fedreal court because your a US citizen. underwear bomber was not a US citizen, but he got tried in the US federal court...

  • @rockaboy3000 na man its the muslims it always is.... those bastards

  • Why these muslim terrorists groups are creating unrest situations in every country. What do they want. Why do they indulge in these sort of activities. It is the muslims who are in large numbers in every country and their names are involved in every scam, scandal, terrorism etc. etc.,

    Can't they leave this world alone in peace?

    They are alarmingly over-grown and still growing which is not good for the world.

  • this is sad how people here are jumping to conclusions so quickly. agreeing with previous comments, there is homocide in every country, but not all of these homocides are documented like this one. just because people have put up one video of this happening in the phillipines doesn't mean that the country is not safe. its like saying that air travel must be really REALLY dangerous cos you watched one episode of air crash investigation. every day i see that people have been murdered in the US

  • why would anyone want to vacation at some loser country? This video along with the "colombia death trap" just tells us not to visit those poor countries. Just save up and visit Florida or Disneyland.

  • its amazing how you could just speak about another country like that. are u uneducated?

  • It's true, just google up the top homicide rates, missing person's...etc stuff. Those countries has the highest crime and missing persons rates, I'm not lying. Quit being so naive, read up on the facts.

  • yes thats true but dont say loser country cause - saying its a loser country you are talknig about the whole country wich in my opinion is really wrong. its better just to say that its got higher homicide rating etc

  • Well, if a country can't even control/manage the society and the safety of the people then it failed. Aka. loser. If a citizen or tourist can't even feel safe and be safe, then they live there....

  • and you dont think our goverment is trying to sort it out?

    and should i say america is a loser country aswell? ... because of the gangs etc in there? there are some places in america where i woulnd't even walk - i duno maybe ill get mug by retarded gang members?

    every country has its downside. erm you know exactly what hapened to these 2 foreigner? didnt u realise our goverment was trying to do what they can to help them be set free?

  • Yeah, that's why you should go to Canada.

  • but then its too cold btw lets leave this arguement

  • haha I live in Canada now. Its very safe

  • ummm you obviously have never been to a "loser" country idiot, if you have money its the best place to be but if you're poor then it sucks, i live in america why the fuck would i want to take a vacation in america if i live there and its not so great here we're the number 1 hated country in the world, dont get me wrong i love it here but EVERYONE needs a vacation away from here sometime dickhead

  • Agreed

  • not really, you could go to europe (france, UK, germany..), there's lots to see. Or even Japan, anywhere is better than those countries. Vacation to the US is only great for shopping, cuz they have lots of big names. Japan have big names too. Yes, I don't like americans too.

  • @cosmosvision never come to the UK its a shithole

  • She's not very bright if she suddenly decides to act stubborn when being taken hostage. Kinda comes off as an idiot when she thinks she can change the situation by acting stubborn to a hostage-taker

  • wtf happend to the rest?? ROFL

  • Many of the women were raped and forced into marriage and then many others died or were executed, it's not really funny at all. They have a book too by the way.

  • Ah fuck! Where's the rest of it!?

  • i know . . . . >:(

  • holy shit

  • ur a fuckin idiot dont u see the episodes from mexico and brazil

  • and you're a dick head and can only see past your own rectum.

  • I think he has a lovely rectum.

  • i think your a fucking retard who needs a goddamn life

  • @mahuda78

    

  • Oh really? Because muslims and Islam are soooo tolerant towards other cultures and their media is not at all biased...

  • yes exactly...you got it perfectly

  • Well, this did happen and the fact that Islam's leaders have participated and done these sorts of things for a longtime kinda helps prove the point. Not all Muslims are bad, just a good portion of them are (most of the muslims outside the western world).

  • what ever makes you sleep at night

  • i find it so sad what the muslems do to people that dont believe in there religion.... WTF i dont get it why did they attack them?? "ROFL"

  • tangna wla ng tourista ppnta stin bansa wah ..

  • 2:12 "u know what u needa get shorts on we didnt have cloths on" wow... REAL nice lady cuz we REALLY needed to know that -_-' *sarcasm sarcasm*

  • douchebag I thought this was the whole thing!

  • actualy this abusayaf people are illegal imigrants from indonesia and recruited muslims from the philippines..

  • the thoughtless comments here are overwhelming!

  • Peace to the southern Philippines...

  • what happened was that the couple and other tourist were captured by the abu sayyaf a islamic group of phillipinos who want to create an islamic country so they held these tourist for ransom and the philipine army comes to try to rescue them but then the abu sayyaf started to protect them and then the leader suliman called the government for a 1 mill ransom or else they would kill 1 of the couple then the army attacks again and the husband gets killed in the end 11 people were killed

  • Islamic group? Perhaps she should have stayed undressed then...

  • does anyone know where i can watch the whole episode?

    i dont have the national geographic channel in my TV

  • you should buy it it is really good

  • You can watch full episodes of this on hulu (dot com)

  • guys, just so you know... everything, or mostly everything you see on this channel are mostly previews for the shows. If you read the description it gives you a link to the website description and tells you when its going to be airing on TV. That means we are always left wanting more :(

  • philippines is the perfect vacation spot. most filipinos speak english or at least understand it. its cheap and its truly a beautiful place, but these fucking rebels make it look bad and philippines lose tourism which can help out with the economy.

  • @BBGenelie

    Fuckin faggots.

  • @BBGenelie philippines is a beautiful country ( I been there twice) but it can also be very dangerous depending what part of philippines you go to and what kind of lifestyle you choose to emerge yourself into.

  • ihave been there

  • where the fuck is the rest of the story mannn..

  • OMG thats just plain scary!

  • I am so not smuggling drugs into another country. NO WAI! With drugs, you're dealing with some pretty shady people.

  • another muslim assholes. Tell me another time this religion is peaceful! EVERYWHERE it's the same- muslims cause anarchy. look at these... muslims!!

  • they use the ir religion to excuse their terrorist behaviour. muslim people are good and live in peace. it´s just like mexican drugdealers...they are all catholic, they pray and trust their lives to god and the virgen de guadalupe before they go out and execute people. not all cahtolics are criminals neither.-

  • MILF is the name of these terrorist ( not to be confused with the porn kind) and has been terrorising the Philippines for a long time. Mindanao would be a great place if these terrorist groups were gone, I had never been to Mindanao because these MILF assholes are always kidnapping people for money.

  • I remember seeing this episode on television...I almost didn't watch it, considering I was channel-surfing at the time.

    I did, though, and I thought it was very touching, as well as inspiring.

  • I refuse to buy NG's dvd to find out.. so I'm thankful that someone here already told us the ending.

    However.. if the chicks' husband dies (the lady tellin the story) then WhyTF is she smilin while tellin the story???

    That's what's really botherin me here..

    Not that you asked..

    But..

    ah hell.. hahaha

  • shit!!!

  • isn't there a part 2? :(

  • wth are they terrorists or something and why wasn't there a ending i want to know the endingggggg

  • The ending wuz martin got killed when the philippine military threw a Grenade and exploded on martins back when they were sleeping.. But the girl (idk the name) survived and got saved.. Sad Ending :(.. Abu Sayaff Gtfo Philippines I hope you die :DD!

  • dude it's like... 18 against 4 or 5.

    On the boat; push them off. My god. I would do it. Maybe, depends.

    Xp

  • it is 18 against 4 or 5 but you got to think you're pretty much defenseless those guys have the weapons that can blow your head off while you only got your hands and feet to defend yourself.

  • this is scary! its things like this make me not want 2 travel w/out knowing anybody 4rm that country

  • Well what happened 2 em, or is it a secret

  • wtf?

  • i saw this before. For any1 who wants to no the show is on the national geographic channel and is called locked up abroad

  • ha that is the ultimate cock block.

  • hahaha "ultimate cock block" thats some funny shit

  • martin died when the philippine militaries tried to rescue them. those where abusayaf (terorist and against philippine government).

    the best thing is wife survived and forgave all the people who did this to her husband and to her.

  • Damn. That's one forgiving wife.

  • part 2?

  • Everyone before you past judgement on anyone or anything read the book, it's called "In the Presence of my Enemy"

  • i sent nat geo a message.

    He will not reply.

    That means he is like a robot.

    it's his website

  • aeonflux67 is right. But how about HUMAN RIGHTS?

    You may have never heard of military officers doing just as you've suggested and they were court martialled... I suggest it not to be a military or government action... it's should be more on civilian action... think of olutanga island where there are no large military outposts, but civilians resist against any insurgent activities...with butcher knife in the right hand and sticks in the left, extremists stayed away.

  • I would have liked to see what happened afterwards.. Where's the 2nd part?

  • i think in description

  • that could happen to you if your traveling in the south (mindanao) , abu sayyaf really hates you

  • ok if some 1 was yelling at me and pointing an assault rifle in my face i wouldnt give a shit ig i had anything on i would just get up and follow his orders and prolly try to hypnotize him wit my boobies lol jk bout the last part

  • omg wat happened and why

  • typical muslims

  • lol sarcasm i assume.

  • lol.

  • This was always in the news before and i also saw a book about this in the bookstore.. i remember that there were a lot of mediamen flocked in Manila, Philippines when Gracia Burnham, sitting on her wheelchair, arrived..

    Her face here in the documntary really changed since the way i used to watch her in philippine news before..

  • god damn, what was the motive? how did they get away?

  • to bad they aren't all dead

  • the dude gets shot, and another 3 people, and she gets dumped off with a rope tied on her hands, and she untangles herself, and she swims back, and everyone else was put on another boat with undercover cops, and brought them all back.

  • thanks for the F-ing cliff hanger NG...you suck! lol

  • Its true what one of the comment said why travel outside the united state american are not wanted in any other place because of what they have done stay out of other country and stay in the united state its not worth dying to go to a beautiful place

  • god just watching this video makes me think how terrible it must be to be married...to have to wake up to the same woman over and over and just look at how feminized this poor man is..."I LOVE YOU" I LOV EYOU TOO" god it makes me sick ill never get married

  • Stupid bitch. Lots of money to spend at a resort in a country with immense poverty, and an active rebel movement.

    I am a rich American, I can't understand what they could possibly want with me!

    They want to buy more ammunition for the weapons your government already sold them ya dumb c***.

  • yea isnt that great?

  • Isn't it amazing how much so many other countries hate America?

  • when china is the dominant world power everyone will hate china

  • I suppose so, but do you think it will be China that will dominate the world?

  • well considering that it would take all over their annual 8% growth in GDP just to repair the huge amount of enviornmental problems they have, I dont think it will be soon. I have heard things and watched a few docs on it but thats all I can say really. Only Im sure America is pretty much finished (the golden age is over). Who knows if I knew more then id share but im as clueless as the next man

  • Yes, I agree with you about America's being over, most of the BIG-BIG civilizations last about only two-hundred years, or so I am told, our time is up. But China... it is home to so many slaves, I'm trying to figure how it can dominate... But what you said does make sense.

  • Dominant power with the cheap plastic toys? Please, give me a break.

  • im thumbing this comment up

  • who the faggot are you man?

  • Here's what I think, if you are Chinese and you were offended by my comment, then good you cheap ass commie; otherwise, fuck off. I wasn't bashing your Philipino ass or country.

  • another piece dedicated to discouraging americans to travel....and all the better, who needs to get out of the us anyway? We have every fucken thing e need right here at home!! Plus you dont have to worry about feeling guilty forbeing in a poor country and you can just chill with other americans! CYnical? You decide.

  • Not cynical. I'd say shortsighted. This planet is a wonderful place. It is people that make it into a living hell. I am sure you agree on that one. Yet not all places are dangerous because of these moron dictators.

  • well, with all those wars the usa is hosting,

    i can't imagine iraq or afghan ppz who don't wanna go and kill usa ppz =p

    but these guys probably went for the money, it could have been a coincidence that they were americain...... it could have been any race...

    who cares, they got money, and the theifs need it so they rob =[

  • what is this show called

  • You're the biggest retard

  • lol :/ read the description part

  • is this i survived

  • when a terrorist has a gun to your back why the hell would you slow down when hes yelling out "GO FASTER"?

  • Because Americans are toughies.

  • Tough... stupid ... what's the difference? ;)

  • If you google national geographic and search locked up abroad then scan through the shows, you will find it. Unfortunately, Martin and three others were killed. It's amazing how strong she is but I know why, they were missionaries, therefore she was comforted by her lost by God.

  • AHH wheres the rest???

  • faker999 that would be cool but its pretty stupid to say lol

  • i admire her 4 not running, she was brave. How did it end???

  • How did it end? The girl should`ve just went. Either go outside naked or die. So stupid. She was wearing underwear.

  • stupid terrorist -_-'

    they think they can get away with anything but they can't bc they're retarded and should not exist

  • i thinks those where the abusayap

    im not sure

    abusayap is a terrorist in the phillipine

    i think i saw this in the news

    a fillipino new

    i think what happened in the end is that the guy gets killed

    im not sure if this the right srry

    so yeah

    srry if im wrong

  • whats next? need to know how end it up

  • Looks terrifying. But I wish they had cast Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz as the couple. Can you imagine that?! Would've RAWKED.

  • Lmao.xD

  • it's very immature to base your entire view of a country in only one person/group! besides the hostage takers were muslims and terrorists. can you tell all of them are filipnos?

  • of all the places in the world... philippine? na-uh!!!!

  • so iraq is much better to you?

  • no. iraq, phil, and afghanistan are the same

  • stupid jerk! bleeehhh!!! go to HELL, your home. so stupid. nye-nye-nyenyeye!!

  • just so you know mr666, phillipines is a nice. Those people who took hostages are people who have nothing to do with the government. Just like it is here in the U.S. Have you ever been to L.A. or Compton? The people who do bad things are everywhere, in every state in every city.Stop judging people you havent even met and belittling countries you havent even been to. whats to stop gang members, kkk, crooked police, or even strangers from taking you as hostage? Everyplace has its flaws.

  • Oh hell no they aren't. Just what have you been learning in school?

  • what do you mean damn ass...

  • be nice 666judge.  play nice mr. 666judge.

  • what a dumb ass... dont you even know that phillipins is a great vacationing place¿¿¿¿ fuking ingnorant.

  • this epsidoe was fucking sad as hell..this lady didn't deserve this

  • Where is this?

  • Are you awake or just listening to the video?

  • Haha, my bad. I was only listening so I didn't see the part where they see the Philippines.

  • Muslim terrorist in the true nature of islam; spread hate, death and destruction on everything and anybody that's not a muslim.

  • Yes you are right, got to say some more so these people will understand the true meaning of Islam.

  • Theres no continuation! ARRRRRRRRRRRR!! :( I wanted to see the rest! what the heck! is there anorther part to this on here?

  • why doesnt this show the ending?
