Pablo Emilio Escobar Gaviria (December 1, 1949 -- December 2, 1993) was a Colombian drug lord. Often referred to as the "World's Greatest Outlaw", he was perhaps the most elusive cocaine trafficker ever to have lived.[1] He is regarded as the richest and most successful criminal in world history. In 1989, Forbes magazine declared Escobar as the seventh richest man in the world, with an estimated personal fortune of US$ 9 billion.[2] He owned innumerable luxury residences and automobiles and, in 1986, he attempted to enter Colombian politics, even offering to pay off the nation's US$ 10 billion national debt.[3] It is said that Pablo Escobar once burned US$ 2 million in cash just to keep warm while on the run in Colombia.


Pablo Escobar "The People's Drug Lord" video produced by Current TV. This short documentary portrays the duality of Pablo Escobar through the eyes of the people he helped out of poverty and through the eyes of the government who exposed him as a murderous drug lord. Fabio Castillo, a journalist who has been investigating Escobar's life and story for the last thirty years shares his findings in Medellin, Colombia.

  • Si dio casas y todo, pero tambien mato a cientos personas inocentes, que no tenian nada que ver. La gente si es estupida, las "buenas" obras que hizo no era para ayudar a la gente, al final solo le interesaba tener al pueblo de su parte para que no lo delataran o le protegieran.

    Solo hay algo cierto Escobar era muy astuto, compro a los pobres de medellin y aterrorizo al resto del Pais.

  • rip pablo!!

  • ¿Alguien sabe la dirección o ubicación general de "Las Vegas Automóviles", que anteriormente era propiedad del Sr. Rafael Cardona Salazar en Envigado Colombia? me cabe duda de que sigue siendo un concesionario de automóviles, pero sé que él y su secretario, donde disparó a muerte por ametralladoras múltiples más probable es ordenado por el Ochoas.I acaba de terminar de leer un buen libro y me gustaría comprobar que funciona en los mapas de Google.

  • @trousersnake7 HIS GOOD THINGS MAKE THE BAD IRRELEVANT

  • ESCOBAR WAS A GREAT GREAT MAN

  • @sisudo21 You said it yourself with your closing statement, Which therfore makes any "good hearted" things he's done (which were few in comparison to the many terrible things orchestrated by Pablo) completely irrelevant.
