  • Shame on people who think their social status goes much higher, if they have leather wallets, shoes, belts !!!!! and ofcourse who eat animal flesh. Its really shame on such people.

  • I don't agree with this. But the skin industry is a multimillion dollar industry. I love animals as much as any one else i have 2 very nice dogs but I don't agree with peta. They have the right idea about saving the animals but they go about it all wrong. It's a shame.

  • I'm really surprised how many people are so overly concerned by this, most of these people are probably not even vegetarians yet don't know how cruel the animals have been treated that provide their meat, I think this is fine. It sustains the economy and we are given animals to exploit.

  • they should do the same with these bad people doing that with these poor animals. .... poor animals. i dont understand why they do that and i dont understand too why they dont kill the animals before getting their fur. killing animals for fur is bad. these people are bad. but why they dont kill animals BEFORE get the fur? why they let them die so slowly and painfull -.- these people have to die for what they do/did. these bad people deserve no mercy

  • Snakes are FRIENDS not FASHION! People make me sick...

  • Cuando detendremos esta masacre a los seres indefensos, el ser humano es el animal más cuel q existe.

  • это точно . но тогда нужно чтобы он и про мясо коров свиней и кур тоже сказал и чтоб видео было про кур и про коров. чтобы не было избирательности. и мы давайте все перестанем кушать мясо.

  • esto esta horrible!!

  • Joaquin thank you so much for sharing this horror!!! So mean and sad! This practice and all practices of cruelty must stop where are peoples feelings and considerations?

  • Dear God this is soooooo disturbing.... I had to stop watching, what a cruel world we live in.

  • omg

    

  • I can't watch anymore... But I promise to never ever support this cruel practice!

  • WTF is going on in this world ???

  • i think every person that goes to buy shoes made of reptile skin should have to watch this. i'm an AVID horror movie fan and even i had to look away. how can someone watch something like this and still wear skins...it's disgusting...there's not enough room here for me to say how reprehensible these acts are

  • We should knock some sense into these peoples stupid heads! Shameful Acts

  • This is disgusting and I am honestly ashamed to say that I am part of the same race as those people.

  • No skins of INNOCENT reptiles in my wardrobe ❤

  • I like how PETA is content with destroying what is possibly the only source of income for some of these people. Hey PETA while you're busy taking down the skin and fur industry I hope you'll put the same effort and enthusiasm in finding a new source of income for these people.

  • @Jango210 For many people drug selling or human organ selling is only source of income, but that doesn't mean they shoud do what they are doing. However, I agree that the fight for the animal rights would be much more effective if PETA would propose an alternative job for these people.

  • the top of the evolution,...what a shame! the mankind or humans have no right to say they deserve to live! They don't!

  • Horrific, disgraceful, inhumane, sad, upsetting, barbaric, sick, cruel.... the dictionary does not describe enough words for our species and for the way they act to wear animals skin to make a few bucks! The consumers that know of how this happens are just as heartless/soulless as the guys that do this act of cruelty madness!!!

  • Thank You Joaquin- for your compassion and efforts for these innocent creatures. You've and your family have always been this way- even before it was a Hollywood Trend. We love You!!!

  • I am a respactable loyar in the us.This year i had a trip to Mallorca which is in Spain and there i stumbeled across a shop selling WHALE meat and and 100%zebra skin carpet right in the open noone took action.So i managed to sue the shop and get the owner in prison but thats all i can do for now,guvermants need to take action

  • Dude WTF?! At least kill them in an uncruel and painless manner before ripping their soul apart. Holy shit...I'm pissed.

  • but some idots rather show their wealth and position than protecting animals

  • As a snake owner, this video makes me sick. Snakes and many other reptiles are intelligent creatures and obviously Humans lack their intelligence....

  • i dont buy fur or leather or any thing like that, but i still eat meat BUT i only eat organic stuff like grass fed cows and free range chickens with no hormones and nasty stuff like that... i think that its ok to eat meat as long as you know where its coming from and that the animals had a happy life.

  • @sweety3995OS That's good; at least the meat of the animal isn't going to waste.

  • hell isnt in our earths core....its here on land

  • humanity... ha

  • Where's the line with not harming animals?

    I agree that now that we have fur substitutes we should stop wearing furs, but all the same I personally need meat to live a healthy life.

    (I love Joaquin, btw. Didn't watch the vid cause I don't want nightmares.)

  • @FakeApology You can live without meat, look at Liv Tyler for instance, she is a vegan, she is pretty and she is healthy, and so there are millions of vegetarians and vegans. We can substitute meat nowadays too.

    But of course leather and fur is easier to give up than meat, because meat is involved in social matters like birthdays, barbecue's too. But believe me, it's possible. :)

  • people are the real animals.they are just cruel ..i really wish for those who make something horrible like this ,to feel the pain they cause to animals(srry for my english:D)

  • I love you Joaquin.

    DON'T USE OTHER ANIMALS SKIN OR FUR! be comfortable in YOUR own skin.

  • Hey make no mistake! If a snake or alligator ever got the chance, they would eat you and everyone you love! I say slaughter them all and wear their skins as a testament to man's ability to overcome even nature's most vicious and brutal animals.

  • Is Joaquin going to start acting in movies again?

  • why dont they have morals? these people need to be exterminated.

  • Sweden needs a great animal shelter - please take 5 seconds to vote for this idea via ratexla.tumblr.c o m/post/521451583/sweshelter (remove the url spaces...) and you can help make one a reality! Tell all your friends, too! :) Thank you! :D

  • probably one of the most sickening videos i've ever seen. this is truly tragic.

  • OK siriously i have to throw up if i watch this until the end. This video should not be accessible for children!

  • @HarveyMushman85 but children need to know the truth of how fucked up socity is making not accesabel to the mis lying to them. This is wrong and disgusting but its true and its a strong message

  • -wearing cloths made of your own hair, because otherwise your wearing something that effected another being.

    -getting rid of your computers, because the large batteries contain lead and mercury.

    -using only sunlight, because all light bulbs contain mercury.

    -eating pine cones, because its probably the only thing that isn't really effected by harvesting it.

    -not buying ANYTHING, because the monetary used in the world is made of wood pulp, going back to the rain forest.

  • If u all aren't riding bikes, because cars are causing the greenhouse effect.

    -eating 100% natural vegetables, because pesticides are polluting the environment.

    -using paper alternatives, because rain forests are being destroyed.

    -recycling everything you get rid of, including the waste from your body, because our drinking water is less the 1% now. and landfills are over packed and under managed.

    -not procreating, because of the obvious problems of over population.

  • IF the reptile is actually dead (and killed humanely first) it's not as bad. Things die, yes we shouldn't be under the illusion of control that we have but death is going to happen. I dislike that the animals may still be alive when skinned though :S

  • seriously, I HATE PEOPLE.

    why in the HELL would you wear skins and fur?!

    this is so incredibly saddening.

    their skins just get ripped off! it's horrible!

    WHY!! WHY!! whyyyyyyyyyyyy

    ARE PEOPLE SO EVIL!!

    CRYING MY EYES OUT!!

    NOT!!

  • wow that was intense... i feel so bad omg thats horrible.!!! So sad :[ i love snake skin but now im getting the fake ones and telling my mom forget the alligator bags.

  • lol grow up, animals kill each other all the time

    believe it or not, we do not live in the disney universe of happiness and wonderful song and dance, and in the real world, shit dies, all the time

    and not all animals wait until their prey is dead before they start eating

  • @LazyFazyLive LOL I agree with you completly, I just don't think that they need to have them alive while they are skinned. YA!! lol no disney universe for us! Which doesn't mean we kill EVERYTHING O_O but I think the PETA meddles too much , it really just gets annoying.

  • @LazyFazyLive Well that is not the point everyone knows they die but people are killing them before their time is right and they do it by ripping their skin of while their alive or hitting them with a metal bat. Would you rather die when it is your time or be beaten with a bat or abuse so people can use some part of your body for fashoin think about it.

  • @LazyFazyLive animals eat other animals to stay ALIVE. they are carnivores and rely on a meat based diet. they don't do what they're doing for fashion or to show your wealth.

  • So awful, but so important to know.

  • That was pretty intense... but we have to watch these things so we don't get complacent. A big thank you to Mr. Phoenix and to PETA. Please people, no more animal skins and go vegan!

  • There is no excuse in this day and age for people in developed countries to wear or use animal skins, there are masses of beautiful alternatives out there that do not use any animal products.

    Wearing/using animal fur and skins is all ego and showing off, this has got to stop.

    If people didn't buy it then there would be no need for this kind of cruelty.

  • People who wear fur a fucking assholes and deserve to be treated as such, but the people who do that blood thing are just as cancerous to humanity.

  • I'm scared of reptiles but they are beautiful creatures that should be protected and admired.This breaks my heart,how can people be so cruel?And we are wondering why all those disasters are happening,but look what we do to mother earth,look how we treat Gods creations.This world makes me sick!!!

  • oh my god..i clutched my chest all the way!

  • lizards are very intelligent and what they do to them makes me want to slit the peoples necks with a knife a whip their face with a bat. >: (

  • More animal abuse from the East? What a shock that isnt

  • Mankind has been really bad with animals...that's why Mother Nature is so angry with us now...

  • that was difficult to watch

  • I want proof that these aren't just random samples. I mean, it can't ALL be done like this.... right? :'( Either way, I still don't wear skin.

  • Maybe not all.. but probably about 95% since this is the cheapest method. And that's all that matters to these people; money. Also you have to remember the PETA usually investigates the places the generate the majority of products. The ones companies go too more... once again because it's cheap.

  • i'm crying

  • Poor scaley babies...

  • "fur is worn by beautiful animals and ugly people"

  • so who is the real beast now,a human or an animal?

  • I hate PETA with a passion, but I definitely agree with them on this issue.

  • wow....seriously I had no idea, wow I won't be able to sleep...

  • I felt bad rating this 5 stars because when you click it the word awesome appears next to it. That's not exactly the word I'm looking for, but I didn't want to rate it 3 stars either. .

  • I dont understand, this should be world widely banned! Animals are like babies, no matter how old, young, vicious or docile they are.

    We humans, as the most advanced and privileged living beign on eath, have become blind with PRIDE because of it.

    There will be no massive meteorite, there will be no armagedon, there will be no end of the world.

    Human kind will be the one ending with itself, but just leave animals out of it.

  • wasnt he killed by the gladiator???

  • This is terrible. God, I feel sick.

  • I couldn't watch all of this, but I certainly will NEVER buy ANYTHING made from an animal's skin again. I just found lots of good shoes at Payless shoes made from artificial materials.... I will always buy those from now on.

  • 2:20

    =(

  • wow that was awful to watch. I wanted to cry :(

    If you're going to kill something, people shouldn't be so brutal about it. It sickens me people skin these reptiles alive.

    I am definitely going to spread the word about this. People who treat animals this way should get shot in the head.

  • wonderful statement

    /a loving vegetarian

  • Please pass down the vid. Hopefully PPL realize how cruel they are.

  • Please pass down the vid. Hopefully PPL realize how cruel they are.

  • oh my god

  • horrible :-(

  • I can't even watch this. I just listened Joaquim's narration. I can watch all kinds of movies, but not this sort of cruelty

    This video makes me both sad and disgusted by my own kind. I'd find my own fucking planet and move out of this wretched world if i could.

  • @IIVikingII HAHA....you would just spin off into space. I agree with what your saying just the idea of it is absurd

  • ....it looks like it is time to make some lampshades from the human skin from these despicable hunters to see what it feels like...but keep them alive and let them live by that light at night...that beating heart stuff is bloody terrible...no pun intended...just imagine what we as a race will do when we spread across the galaxy...it is too frightening to contemplate....

  • I'm usually just right peta off as a bunch of nut job extremists, but this brought me to tears. There is absolutely no need for the harvesting of animal skins of any kind, especially when the fakes they make these days are so realistic looking. Anyone that can see this and still go out and by an exotic skin, has no heart. So saddening.......and sickening. Poor reptiles :(

  • Its so simple with technology now a days to just use synthectic material as oppose to animal skins, come on people were in the 21st century now!!

  • I really don't give a shit if the people who are doing these cruel thing's to animals have no other way of earning money, in fact I wish that they would starve to death.

    This is so barbaric and awful that it has to stop NOW!!

    Nobody needs to wear real fur or animal skin, there are so many different fake furs and fake animal skin style items that we don't need to kill another single animal.

  • Mi admiración y respeto por vuestra noble lucha en defensa de los maravillo sos animales y la denuncia y condena a los sicópatas/sádicos asesinos que cometen atrocidades brutales contra los inocentes, sensibles y vulnerables seres vivos. SALUD buena vida, suerte y el mejor de los éxitos

  • this is just disgusting and despicable. humans re supposed to be so advanced but really we are mostly cruel and evil creatures, especially to animals. everytime i see things like this i feel terribly sad and i cry and my whole body fills then shakes with hatred towards people ignorant enough to consume these products and those so inhuman and evil to torture these living creatures.

  • Man has dominion in the earth

  • STUPID RICH PEOPLE.

  • Humans create a hell on Earth for animals.

  • why kill the animals.....fucking people who use skin of animal.....

  • Omg, I just cried. :(

  • seriously, I HATE PEOPLE.

    why in the HELL would you wear skins and fur?!

    this is so incredibly saddening.

    their skins just get ripped off! it's horrible!

    )=

  • @kidandkat lol grow up, animals kill each other all the time

    believe it or not, we do not live in the disney universe of happiness and wonderful song and dance, and in the real world, shit dies, all the time

    and not all animals wait until their prey is dead before they start eating

  • @kidandkat mainly for purses. and leatherwear. I dont blame them. but...they should have just one company that distributes the skins

  • @kidandkat It's not people, it'sthe women. Women wear these skins and fur, men don't. You see those models or celebrities like lady gaga who use meat as a clothing. Don't blame the guys for what you women did wrong. Also, ladies handbags they are made up of skins and fur of animal. To those who encourage people 2 go vegetarian, you're an idiot. We've always depend on animals as our food, even during those caveman time. There wasn't a big deal until now, people are just making excuses 2 be nude

  • Animals, all, including humans, may eat other animals. Nevertheless, even when an animal is killed to be eaten, it should NOT die suffering. I think the point is that making animals suffer, for their skin, is just outrageously cruel. May all the spirits of animals who have died suffering rest peacefully. Amen.

  • So sick. Thanks to Perez though for posting this on his blog.

  • people who wear fur and skins are fuck faces.

  • Gah I hate people who wear fur and other animals. Sick bastards deserve to be skinned themselves.

  • i eat meat but thats just not right at all

  • hey doffiie if u eat meat u r eating animals that r swinging around on hooks alive, r being ground up alive, and live in their own feces and urine their whole lives...what is the difference?...u r just as guilty as these people who wear fur and skins...in today's world their r just too many alternatives....unless u r in outback Alabama....try meat substitutes they r not that bad...esp the deli "meats"...

  • fucking motherfuckers!! I would like to do to them what they do with animals!!

  • I dont like snakes at all but seriously I don't usually mind if animals die for our NEEDS but If there is ALTERNATIVES then we should do that. Or if your gonna kill an animal then kill them FAST and PAINLESS this is SO WRONG

  • just like eating meat, the use of skins won't stop. humans have been using skins for protection and warmth before and after modernisation. fashion aside, is anyone prepared to force inuits to freeze to death to protect bears? and who's to say a bear's life is any more or less important than a snake's?

  • Who's to say a bear's life is any more or less important than a human's?

  • how can you compare protection with fashion? I understand humans in the past used animal's skin to protect themselves against the environment, but making a pair of shoes or a stupid bag is SO not the same.

  • i really hate peta, and i know this is the kind of footage they like to use to get people to follow their ideas; but i absolutely abhor the way the skins are harvested. it's so painful and primitive! i thought we were more advanced now.

  • If one eats animals one is contributing to animal abuse. We vote with our $. Using any animal product says, "I DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT ANIMALS AND THEIR SUFFERING! I CARE MORE ABOUT WHAT I LOVE TO EAT OR WEAR!"

    Watch the movie, "FOOD INC." and/or read the book "SKINNY BITCH or SKINNY BASTARD!"

    Now-a-days it's VERY easy to be Vegan!!! And it's getting easier!!!

  • But this has been going on for years!! there should be a law that prohibits wearing animal products ..any animal period. But that ofcourse will increase prices, and people with money will still buy them!..but how can we stop this madness completely? any ideas? com'on lets work together to stop this...and no... boycottin malls and stuff will not help.

  • fascinating

  • only peace and love

  • This is fucked up

  • there's is truly NO excuse for to wear such products.

  • this is so messed up, i eat meat but seriously, thats to much just for an overpriced shoe or belt, plus i'd never wear anything from animal

  • Pain should be avoided.

  • i almost threw up. i am not even a peta fan or a vegetarian, but this is barbaric. there is no excuse for this and i am going to be haunted for a while now. i can't believe they rip their skin off and it takes two days for them to die skinless. if you are going to use an animal (which i think is unavoidable if we are thinking realistically), they should at least be killed in the most humane way possible. this is sick

  • It's VERY easy to live without the use of animals. We have all kinds of fabrics that do no harm to anyone. We have all kinds of food that do no harm to anyone.

    Using animals for human pleasure is mean, very avoidable, easier than one realizes, and does EVERYONE a world of good!!!

  • I fucking hate people. Truly.

  • In the 80s snakeskin was really big to wear, my Mom wore snakeskin shoes, handbags, etc.. I always felt it was wrong. My Mom is an animal activist now. Without watching this video why would you wear reptile/snakeskin? When the imitations look so good? Because you want to feel rich and fab is the only answer. People turn a blind eye and laugh when humans are mutilated like this, these are the same people who wear reptile/snakeskin.

  • We´re going straight to hell.

  • Wow, Joaquin is sane again? Anyway, you think this is bad, in China they skin dogs and cats alive for their fur then throw them into a wheelbarrow where they die a slow agonizing death. They don`t even bother to kill them after skinning them. And if you think I`m making this up, go ahead and Google it. Type in "dogs skinned alive" and you can see a video.

  • stupid moron hip hop industry glamorizes these ugly belts, coats, and bags. Idiots.

  • How can anyone be that heartless?! I can' t even watch this. :'(

  • oh my gosh!! This is so horrific!!

  • Il est comme son frère River, humain.

  • The people buying those bags should be the ones to have their skin pulled off while still alive. Make bags with that and give them to the snakes :p

  • I'm from Mississippi. The accent of the guy speaking while showing the heart is, with 95% certainty, a Louisiana accent.

  • lol more like dead exotic animals!

  • omg this is so sad :(

  • fucking suck mother fucking c*nts

  • OMG ... I cannot believe this... I never liked snakes but seeing any animal suffer like that covered in blood... I just wanna kill the people who are doing this

  • omg, I could only make it 30 secs into this video before I was just crying and I can't even stomach watching the rest, if I ever see anyone I know buying anything made from reptile skin I am going to tell them to watch this video first, so heartbreaking

  • Sarah Palin believes the Earth is 6,000 years old.

    Sarah Palin is on The 'Learning' Channel.

    If you care about animals boycott them through me.

  • Thank you for this eye opening video.

  • fuckin sick barsteds aill torture them beat them and then skink them alive piece of shits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Thank you Joaquin!

  • how can humans be so barbaric?! poor animals. this is terrible :(

  • damn that was gross i never in still wont wear snake skin shoes in all that crap ..thats so sad

  • That was so freakin horrible!!!

  • You guys always have to find the worst thing and post it! This doesn't happen every second of everyday! I mean come on when you walk, ride a bike, or drive ur car ur killing millions of bugs! Why shouldn't I be able to call u guys murders? Stop posting shit cause u think ur gonna save the world! And make it perfect! Ur not!

  • omg I really feel sad, how can people have no hearts.

  • i cant even finish watching this video :( it's absolutely horrible :( those poor animals.....

  • Wow I'm not a reptile fan and this made me cry.

    It is not a NEED to wear skin, only a WANT.

    People need to get their priorities straight.

  • WOW

    sadface.jpg

  • VERY VERY ANGRY ABOUT THIS

  • he looks really old

  • This is horrible.... I'm not buying leather never again

  • the snake head that was moving after it was cut off is creepy as fuck

  • Man, this is tough to watch. People suck.

  • this is why i say FUCK FASHION.

  • thank you for posting this. i won't be buying clothing made from animals again.

  • =( this is insane......

  • it amazes me how vile and repulsive these people are that can do such a horrendous act. Have they no heart? Must not bc that is just the saddest cruelest thing a human can do do a living animal. I don't wear any of that stuff, not even leather. I hope each individual that has ever done that, and ones who sell/wear it suffer from serious physical pain in their life. Please God, make these sadistic acts STOP!!!

  • This is all I think of when i see these idiots wearing snake skin.. or any kind of skin. It's disgusting that they are aloud to do this.. People that do this fuckin suck! I'm not a violent person but when it is to do with these people.. Ugh! :@@

  • death penalty for all those who buy and wear animal skins! That is the only way to stop this shit.

  • Im in tears Im a vegan and always use alternatives and seeing this makes me somewhat proud in my choice

  • God I love this guy xxxx

  • I so wish this was fake/unreal footage, but it is not...

  • this is really sad :((((((

  • this is really sad :((((((

  • I don't care what anyone says. This is just wrong. Anyone that doesn't know that must be mentally ill. And I feel sorry for them. Almost as sorry as I feel for th animals suffering here. Those born without empathy or compassion truly go through life unfeeling and numb to what life is. As I said, I don't care what anyone else says, this is wrong. Only the individual can know this for himself. We are our own judge and jury. Thanks for posting this video.

  • this really gets the point across. I already was more actively checking if the meat that I eat is 'good' and really trying to cut down on leather. But it seems that leather is even incorporated in inexpensive products. I will never ever buy real fur and this video really inspires me to try harder not to buy leather products and cut down on the meat.

  • This is horrific. Awful. I could never wear alligator skin..
