Alex meets a contract killer in Colombia - Alex James Cocaine Diary - BBC News Investigation

[taza95]

Beretta? who is this fool? doubt this guy even came home in one piece.

[windouse]

HE IS DISGUISED AS A TAXI DRIVER, HE IS NOT A TAXI DRIVER so the number of the cab driver is no use for the colombian police

[jammmon]

this fucking yankee making this videos

stupid tourists

[NationDumb]

is it a Beretta ? ... no its a glock...

brilliant i think we should get the fuck out of here now

LOL

[RPenta]

How much tip did he leave?

[FakePlastickTree]

This would have been way better with Liam Gallagher circa 1996.

[DivideBYZero69]

See my channel for a real Brits view of modern Colombia. It's an amazing country, not without its problems, but then which country isn't?

[andrewcruzera]

Come over to Compton *Shudders*

[andrewcruzera]

Contract killer = someone who kills Contracts not people.

[nolbertok]

O_O Cant believe all this propaganda is such a lie, is like political propaganda, well it is worst, compared they are like Holly people, stupid Jack Ass

[07111980JM]

i bet that jack ass just grabbed the first random taxi driver who started talking shit!

[farco22]

This guy is an emo jack ass! this shit happens everywhere!! And Colombia is the best place on earth!

[gunsnroses0987]

this guy has balls

[StanleyWiddos]

'fuck man' hahahah!

[hdadaniel]

glock 18?

Well, what hes sayong is mostly what we are living here (Juarez, MX)

[nucx0]

Did any one else notice at the beginning he was looking down it looked like he was reading something......hum mm. maybe the piece of shit script ......just sayin

[swed4swed]

fake and gay

[matteoprez]

What a fucking load of crap. Pathetic post-colonialism mentality.

That I have to listen to some British idiot, who had his moment of glory many years ago, and that actually enjoyed large quantities of cocaine back then (and possibly now, too) lknowing absolutely nothing of Colombia, trying to lecture people on something he, again, knows nothing about.

I mean, this idiot actually was one huge cocaine user. Why doesn't he move to Bogotá, lives here 5 years and tells us how is it? Fuck Britons.

[whateverthismeans7]

Every country has its dangerous areas especially in capital cities.

I want to give you a good flogging for posting this ferocious slap in the face piece of bullshit, so called 'documentary'.

Pommy scumbag! Whens the last time you have been to Westminster?, Lambeth? or Burnley? These are in your backyard, yet you travel to a beautiful country full of the most pleasant people you will ever meet and make this shit!

IM GOING TO PRAY EVERY NIGHT THAT I RUN INTO YOU, YOU FUCKIN WORM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Beefer413]

How did the cameraman get in the car faster than Alex? : )

[TheKille22]

this guy is going to get himself killed one day

[xao92k]

0:00 to skip adverts

[gridy999]

hitmen.. there are many in all countries in the world... not just in colombia... Colombia it´s beatiful and you find such a good ambience in the cities of Colombia.. there´s no war on the streets or something... just like in other parts of the world, there´s violence... but not that much as some people think.. in Colombia... you know.. there are dangerous zones... like in USA, England, Germany.. everywhere...

[yvesofzo]

Alex looks quite high himself at the beginning... I wonder if he still uses it

[GhettoBlaster100]

fucking white boy thought a glock was a baretta

[yvesofzo]

@GhettoBlaster100 Not everyone is a gun obsessed American that knows about every single firearm ever made

[FortyYearShock]

For something so candid they sure had amazing camera angles.

[latinvibration]

COLOMBIA IS A BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY I CAN SHOW YOU WHAT COLOMBIA IS

[tabber87]

"I'm discovering that cocaine and violence are inextricable here in Columbia."

HOLY SHIT! INVESTIGATIVE REPORT OF THE CENTURY!!!

[DougglesMagnificent]

@tabber87 haha i noticed that too, but also for the wonky word choice. should have gone with "indivisible" or "inseparable" or at least "inextricable from each other." come correct alex ya myspace haircutass nigga!

[harshLesson]

i think this alex james might have sampled some of colombias purest prior to doing this interview lol his eyelids look like they are being pulled back with strings ahahah

[moOswe]

"Is that a baretta?" I loled.

[DougglesMagnificent]

@moOswe me too! something like that in a sliiiiiiightly different situation could get him killed

[secretagent109]

I HAVE LIVED IN COLOMBIA FOR MANY YEARS I CAN TELL YOU COLOMBIA IS A PARADISE, I LOVE IT

[1991Timmo]

@secretagent109 yeah the crack must be cheap for u u piece of shit crackhead

[HoLOLcaust]

@secretagent109 You won't be saying that when the war breaks out.

[Abasuto]

@secretagent109

By brother's wife is from Colombia. Both her parents and her brother were murdered by drug lords in order to steal their property. There was no offer to leave either, killing them was the first move.

[JUFEMOBE1987]

@secretagent109 gracias por decir eso de mi hermoso pais.

[Triistaann]

@secretagent109 Why is it a paradise in your eyes? Dont know anything about colombia, just wondering :p

[apprentix]

@secretagent109 It could be paradise for some. On the other hand, I left Colombia because it was hell for me. The murder rate in Colombia in 2010 was 38 people per 100,000 inhabitants while in South Africa it was 32 during the same year.

The poor are struggling to eat and do not have Internet access to express their opinions.

[iBeKillinTime]

@latinvibration lol stfu

[SGPDOOLEY]

@latinvibration next time you try to shit-talk another country why don't you use correct grammar? Or at least try to make it readable

[Capuano231]

Alex james is the only one that can rock a emo hair cut and get away with it.

[Mozartrules]

i'm a random wind storm...shakey shakey......i HATE YOUTUBE now!!!!!

[FutureLaugh]

"disguised as a taxi driver" lmao he just took your pasos and gave you the story you wanted gringo

[anticamba77]

[Notespompon]

So fake

[H3nkk]

what a noob

[bettermangdl]

i hate his fucking stupid emo hair !!!

come on Alex keep using Cocaine, you have a big noose and a lot of money dude!!!

[rasb5385]

yes alex, just put on your seatbelt and everything will be ok. lol.

[ivionday]

alex james. what a turd

[jondix1988]

"It causes a lot of bad but also feeds a lot of people including in goverment where it keeps them eployed" He is not saying that.

He is saying that narcotrafic feeds people, people who the goverment gives nothing, not even a bread"

[mzcolombee305]

sin la droga no ayy comida ni plata pa muchos en colombia es triste pero asi son la cosas de la vida.. igual creo que es asi en mucha otros lados del mundo... pero colombia es un pais mu lindo y fuera de eso tabien ay gente buena..

[pjicleanair420]

"is that a barretta?" could it be any more clear that it is a glock

[raptoromilda]

its a glock

[pjicleanair420]

no shit

[MrNEXMOVIE]

Uribe at the same time lead bands of killers

[eldiosdedios]

What the F**k is Uribe going to due? Let the cartels and rebels be the only ones killing. They have to be wiped out somehow.

[alisa192000]

dios santo, pobre alex.

(yo)tenia el corazón en la boca.

[anesthesiuh]

hahahah look how FISHED out your boy looks in the beginning. LOL he's in it for the cheap coke. i heard in medillen or whatever that 7 grams is 40 bux lol holy headache!

[andresparra]

depends on the contact, you could get $2.5USD-$3.5USD per gram pure in Cali.

[looshkin66]

@anesthesiuh

Thats the exact thing i thought......he's high as fuck!

[HuevasSudadas]

i agree. what a puss...............

[HuevasSudadas]

what a fucking idiot. the numbers on the cab are identifing of the cab driver. i live in bogota. this guy may have signed his own death warrant by the colombian police......

[coltsuperocean10]

@HuevasSudadas maybe he had false numbers on the cab!

[phillypimp100]

@HuevasSudadas they said he was disguised as a cab driver.

[TheWolfIsNowOnUt00b]

@HuevasSudadas what a fucking idiot. the numbers on the cab are identifing of the cab driver. i live in bogota. this guy may have signed his own death warrant by the colombian police......

The cab is stolen. He wiped his print and ditched the cab after. Notice how he wore a hat? It was so he'd leave no hairs behind.

[GUEROMEXICANO831]

Pretty soon Alex James will be conducting these interviews in Mexico the way the drug war is going.

[ChaosBombs]

is it berrata? NO a glock! HAHAHA

[djkoopz]

Que man para hablar tan bien y de sicario...

Habla perfecto el HP haha.

[iRepEast]

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!

Alex JAMES= pussy.

[duffyissokwl]

ALEX JAMES!

[MrYourass]

Boooooooooooo!

[birras1060]

Deberían mas bien contar como aquí en ese mismo país de la coca se mueren varios miles de hambre y no por el narcotráfico sino por los recursos que se gastan contra esta lucha, apoyando "documentales" tan pendejos como este que no conocen la profundidad del narcotráfico, de la pobreza que obliga a la gente a esto, de como mejorarlo en vez de traer a un ingles asustado a una ciudad donde la mayoría de las muertes violentas son por pobreza y no por carteles.

[birras1060]

Estos documentales son realmente un asco, esto no es de la manera como ese payaso-periodista lo pinta, aquí no andamos con carros con blindaje, ni siendo vendedores de coca, esto es una farsa.

[posolo4]

PURE LIES, colombianos desertores tetramalparidos, deberian quedarse a vivir aca no saben de lo que se pierden, en fin ustedes son unas basuras traidoras a la patria, DAN VERGUENZA

que viva colombia, no uds

[talos123123]

De que se pierde uno vivendo en colombia... aqui no ha ahbido nunca paz.. solo periodos initerrumpidos de violecia... sera que busca un mejor futuro en otro lugar es ser traidor... o seguir como los cerdos vivendo en el lodo donde estamos consumidos

[paddyirish08]

this guy is a poof

[mcbong10]

i hate being mexican and half columbian..i that country

[mistafear1]

not proud of being colombian...fuk yall....im houston born full blooded colombian..cali...even though we are known for coca its not pretty there is another side 2 our country and 2 fuks like yall we dont need ya..

[Gatamorgana]

it's the same that happens with us italians. People only recognise us as mafiosos, mandolino, pizza and spaghetti.

[SpetSy]

a taxidriver?

[electrodomestico79]

This is the most retarded and fake thing I´ve ever see about my country.

[philou961]

im sure that he paid the guy 300 $ just to play a hitman and that he furnished the gun to the taxi driver :P and if it is real that hitman is really the stupidest one that I haved saw

[crom86]

Loving how the description of the video says Bogatele instead of BOGOTA ha ha ....great research of these reporters ..oh wait...even a 5th grader with an atlas could read the actual name of the city and not make it up ha

[crom86]

ha ha this guy is hilarious !!! ....of all places , he is going to Bogota(the capital) where none of these killings have happened in the last 7 years and regulations such us wearing your motorcycle plate number on your chest and back has reduced the visit of all this paid mercenaries coming to the capital from the surrounding cities ...and look at him so courageous at the front door of the posh hotel he is staying at ha ha.

[crom86]

x D Colombia is a dangerous place with a never ending war u _ u but believe me , Bogota is the one place where none of this happens on the open.....great city full of culture and architecture, and before you think I'm being Bios , let me say Im not proud of being Colombian and that's why I don't live there : )

[badseed136]

"Im not proud of being Colombian and that's why I don't live there" I thought I was the only one like that.

[crom86]

you are not alone mate n _ n

[0517bogota]

I still am living here, but plan to move to spain here as soon as i can..... security is not that good at all, you can be robbed in nearly every place here. I love this country but i hate it's situation, dont call me a traitor just because you dont have a chance of getting out of here.

[badseed136]

El pasaporte colombiano le cierra puertas a uno en cualquier pais decente. POr eso los colombianos se convencen de que es el mejor pais del mundo pues no pueden vivir en ningun otro lugar. En colombia se llevan matando desde la epoca de los indigenas, y no creo que vayan a parar pronto. Nunca ha habido un perido de paz. Ojala pueda mudarse a España y recuerde ser mas agradecido con la tierra que lo recibió que con la que simplemente lo pario. Suerte.

[nicosorio4]

ud de donde? deje de hablar tantas babosadas!, no he tenido ningun problema entrando a otros paises con un pasaporte COLOMBIANO! no hable de cosas q no tiene idea! uno tiene q vivir colombia para saber como de verdad es no viendo un documental tan mk como este!

[badseed136]

Disculpeme su majestad, no quise molestarlo. SOlo pense un comentar sobre MI PROPIA EXPERIENCIA iendo a la 26 a sacar la visa gringa o la 72 con septima a sacar la schengen en la embjada de suecia. O en frente de la hacienda santabarbara a la canadiense quienes nos piden examenes medicos porque como estamos en africa. Tipico colombiano patriota-facista que condena a los que se atreven a criticar esta broma de pais, pero de nada sirve, poque han sido patriotas los que se roban la plata del gov.

[cannoir]

@badseed136

I am LMAO" @ "Disculpeme su majestad" . your post is on point .

[juanov01]

Oiga badseed136, yo no creo en el nacionalismo pendejo que algunos Colombianos suelen compartir. Pero a pesar de eso, la verdad hermano, usted tiene huevo. He leido algunos de sus comentarios, y la verdad usted suena como un acomplejado. Colombia tendra cosas malas, pero es un pais que a pesar de eso, la gente se enammora. Yo fui a medellin hace unos meses, y todos los extranjeros estaban encantados con el pais. Entonces, deje la guenonada, y tenga algo de orgullo.

[Gatamorgana]

well like every town you go

[talos123123]

you are right. I wish I could say the same.

I am despered in this fucking country .

[badseed136]

Hay que ahorrar y estar preparados para hacer 1000 vueltas para que le den a uno una cochina visa pero con esfuerzo y dedicacion se puede.

[EuchridEucrow1]

1:53 - And yet he seems to have no qualms about his livelihood.

[xxxxBootyLoverxxxx]

its all good.

[fationspata]

so badseed how did you get to norway, sailing like a viking?

[saponstruo]

I live in Colombia 20 years ago, and i've never saw or heard about something like this.

[jumpinjoeflash1]

What a twat.He's wired for sure he askes the stupidest questions for sure boarding school twat

[kutasz]

because he`s on coke

[existentialvoid]

on the fense. . .but I like BBC

[jclmrc]

watch la sierra documentary

[LatinKill]

HAHAHAHA this is the cheapest attempt to meet with a contract kileld ive ever seen . No contract killer in Colombia would talk like that, or even go near a BBC journalist.

[reyquezada]

look to the guys eyes he must be really hight in Colombia Cocaine.

[reyquezada]

LOL this is so fake, I am from Colombia and a Colombia Killer will never talk about of what he does and apeir in TV like he did or say who he workig for, lol no truft

[srojo1]

Extremely true! His "patron" would recognize his voice and send someone to kill him for talking too much. A Colombian Killer (Sicario) would never take that chance, unless he is being visited in prison or something.

[King2812]

is that bad over there in columbia? are they ruthless? do mobs and stuff still exist?

[badseed136]

Yes, they do!!! I´m colombian, I live in colombia and I wish I could leave but I can´t cuz my passport closes all doors. Don´t come here!!!! I´ve seen a lot of foreign people in downtown bogota, and believe me, everysingle person here will try to rip them off, and it´s easy to tell whose foreign since most colombians are brown, short and bad looking.

[niels2029]

colombian girls are beautiful

[badseed136]

Not compared to scandinavian women. Not even close. They all look the same, dark hair, dark eyes, brown skin.

[nebyou]

scandanavian woman don't all look the same?

[badseed136]

Nope, there are brunets, blonds, redheads, with blue eyes, green eyes, brown eyes, pale white, tanned. All sizes too and very educated as well. 95% of colombian girls have brown skin, black hair and brown eyes or sometimes greenish brown.

[nebyou]

oh ok, i honestly didn't know. i thought most were blue eyed blond haired

[badseed136]

In Sweden and Finland is that way with both girls and guys but in Norway and Iceland no.

[karloshaman]

tipico colombiano con la mentalidad colonialista de indio inferiorizado. there are bad and good looking like everywhere else you moron, the difference is race, but i gather you're racist cunt.

[BigDan777]

Alex James is obviously fucking wired during the intro. His eyeballs are popping out of his head...

[soupdragon42]

If it's on the BBC, its probably bullshit!

[urbanizassom]

LOL

like wild life programms

[1ngerland]

fail

[Olphus]

Religious people are too funny!!

[BoscoFeltz]

Alex James is such a gimp

[loyallands]

Funny thing is he looks so high on the stuff.

[alejos3883]

TO carlritchie ...dude have u noticed wat u president have done to this country? have u ever think about how some people here help violence increase in colombia.have u ever being in colombia? no..dont take me wrong. but US is a good country but their governmnet sucks well bush n his people do..n just accept that fact..i will not denie colombia sell cocaine ..but just like any other country there is corruption..in US too..in case u havent noticed Bin laden was CIA's pet now is "enemy"? just sayin

[alejos3883]

ok. so a gringo who probably doesnot know colombia just go there and he gets all this shity info from a "taxidriver"?yeah right!! dude who are the gringos or americans to talk when their goverment caused 9/11..when they are the bigest cocaine buyers..when they are way more drugs here than any part of the world..get this into ur fuckin heads gringos "MIND UR FUCKIN BUSINESS" cuz ur fuckin country aint doing that good is it??

[carlritchie]

fuck you. if it werent for the "gringos" u guys would be a fuckin rats nest. jesus christ the cartel stormed your own fuckin senate. and you couldnt do shit about it. motherfuckin spic

[Microbionico]

buuuuuuuuuu

This is not

[Alexmagno777]

this video is just an offence against colombia, whats the fuking problem against that country? does the cocaine problem doesnt happen in the UK? isnt this a real problem in all around the world and not just in colombia? i can tell you, i've seen more drugs here in england more than in colombia, seriously

[Alexmagno777]

this is all fake, do u think that guy would be alive if the driver would know there was a camera in his taxi??? thats all the bullshit that all people understand about colombia. i invite you all people who whatch this video to go to colombia, if you dont want to take the risk to stay there coz is a wonderful country.

[bochalema]

F..  rediculous report.

[palohhinai]

BODOH

[Shonaripa]

It's ColOmbia, with a motherfucking O! The one with U is a place in america. Jesus Motherfucking Christ. And what is Bogatele? You mean the city of Bogotá? Shiiet!

[Itsbluewire]

It should be Colombia not Columbia!!!

[strider4660]

interesting

[liampaulmcguinness]

more sensationalised bbc rubbish. too bad the driver didn't shoot alex with his stupid haircut; it would have been more interesting to watch.

[d0m0x]

baretta? lol he us brit tho. :P

[WESHMAN50s]

its funny how the camera man is already in the car.

[Rdcranno]

The interviewer doesnt know shit. why waste time with an idiot who doesnt know the situation in columbia.

[tomcrammy]

1) dont act gangster and think you know the situation

2) geekdiggy is 30% of the debt worth life in prison/ death?

[geekdiggy]

30%?! holy hell that's a lot. just think if they had to recover a million dollar debt, that's three hundred grand! untaxed!

he was understandably afraid but he didn't have to be. i don't think the killer had any intention of hurting him. you can tell he's gun shy because he got antsy when the guy pulled out his piece. he should've expected that from a man who kills for a living.

[exeHL]

He's acting for the camera.

[ramonsangriento2]

he acctually shat his pant since he was inside the cab and yhea a lit bit of acting but his face was full fear.

[exeHL]

No, I mean the contract killer. How couldn't he pass up an attempt to inflate his ego like that? Plus he gets to scare some nosy journalist.

But yeah, James was probably putting on a bit of a show.
