Did you ever do anything where you actually ever have a moment where you were actually scared?
00:00:04.660
Like, holy shit, we got to be careful with this.
00:00:10.820
I mean, personally, probably getting arrested by Border Patrol.
00:00:22.040
Okay, so the video is called Border Patrol Arrest.
00:00:24.520
So let me first, before you watch this, let me tell you the purpose.
00:00:26.400
This is when the border was wide open and there was a big, you know, migrant crisis happening.
00:00:30.780
So I wanted to see what it was like on the Mexican side as far as the final step of actually meeting up with a coyote who was connected to the cartel and crossing the border, specifically over the river, because I wanted to get in the water as opposed to be in the hot desert.
00:00:44.400
I didn't actually, I didn't realize that we were going to cross the river until we got there.
00:00:48.980
But then I kind of put two and two together, and there was a guy that was collecting tacks with a machete that he was, like, hitting against this tree in the distance.
00:00:59.220
I'm looking at America like, oh, home free, finally.
00:01:05.200
I get to the American side, and I think that I'm good to go.
00:01:11.680
Like, even if you're an American citizen, you can't just hop your own border.
00:01:18.220
So I walk up, and then I get up, and then the Border Patrol agent is like, you know, stand up.
00:01:27.340
And he's like, you know, you just, it's a felony, right?
00:01:30.660
He's like, you have to go through a port of entry.
00:01:37.580
So he took me to a processing center for migrants.
00:01:41.460
And, yeah, it was like hundreds of them wearing space blankets in this freezing room.
00:01:46.320
Did you record it, or they didn't let you record it?
00:01:47.580
I couldn't record this, so we had a designer do like a 3D animation rendering of it.
00:01:52.240
So I go into the room after being processed, and like all the migrants, like it was the
00:01:56.320
worst day of their life, obviously, because they've just gotten caught trying to come
00:01:59.440
Rob, we can hear the audio if you want to mute it, because we hear it.
00:02:01.360
But it made their life, seeing a white guy walk into the holding tank.
00:02:06.140
All these guys were having the worst day, and they just stand up, they're just laughing.
00:02:11.440
Do you have the clip of Speaking to the Coyotes?
00:02:19.960
Well, I would say around the seven-minute mark.
00:02:26.140
So that's the Coyote who I blurred out, and he was-
00:02:29.860
Go back a little bit, because he starts talking.
00:03:01.700
But I didn't realize up until this point that we were actually going to cross the river ourselves.
00:03:05.900
I was expecting just like a tour of their route.
00:03:21.640
This was not discussed, but I wasn't sure what to do.
00:03:40.700
At this point, it became quite obvious that I was in far too deep.
00:03:54.240
The coyote told me that after crossing the river, we had to walk from Eagle Pass to Uvalde, Texas,
00:04:03.040
According to Apple Maps, it said it would take over 24 hours.
00:04:09.400
Looking back, I would have asked to turn around, but we were in far too deep.
00:04:13.200
And while they're being pretty cool, you never know when a switch could flip or something.
00:04:16.680
Abruptly, the younger coyote asked me to duck down because a border patrol boat was speeding by.
00:04:51.320
The thing is, I don't really feel anxiety until like I'm looking at the footage.
00:04:55.480
In the moment, I wasn't nervous, but watching this now, I'm nervous because I realized this is like a bad idea.
00:05:02.260
I'm about to cross the border and get arrested by border patrol.
00:05:04.520
Go to the border patrol part when he's talking.
00:05:06.780
Do you record when you're talking to border patrol?
00:05:49.160
Border patrol had been watching us the entire time since we entered the forest.
00:05:54.920
And set up the English on the American side to apprehend us.
00:06:02.760
Immediately, my coyotes jumped back into the water, swimming back to Mexico.
00:06:36.220
Honestly, this is pretty much a commercial for the US border patrol.
00:06:38.960
Dude, this is like, these guys are great shooters, literally.
00:06:42.880
He's holding it like at a perfect eye level here or hip level.
00:06:45.280
And we're sitting in the back of the car there.
00:07:01.940
Well, I went to a processing center and they just helped me.
00:07:04.140
This is the one you were with a couple hundred other guys that got caught as well?
00:07:06.720
And then they put me in a solitary confinement cell for like three days.
00:07:09.800
Did somebody say like, what the, what were you thinking?
00:07:11.660
Yeah, they understood, but like the immigration court system was so bloated because of the
00:07:16.340
crisis that I couldn't get heard by a judge for like three days.
00:07:19.320
As soon as she heard that I was an American citizen, they just gave me a $10,000 fine and
00:07:25.320
So you didn't pay the $5,000 to the coyote, but you paid the $10,000 to the government.
00:07:43.140
They were supposed to help me get into the U.S.
00:07:51.260
You want things to get done and then I'll pay you.
00:07:56.460
It was the most depressing place I've ever seen in my life.
00:07:58.740
Just seeing like little kids covered in water from the Rio Grande with sticks in their hair,
00:08:02.820
crying hysterically with their moms as they're being, you know, detained by border patrol
00:08:07.460
and put into freezing rooms where they're just screaming all night.
00:08:11.160
And in my cell, they had a TV and the movie The Matrix was playing and it was, but it
00:08:19.040
So it was like play special features and it was the same song over and over again.
00:08:22.000
And I finally got the jailer to change it to a different movie.
00:08:24.720
And they played the movie Marley and Me, the Owen Wilson film about the dog who passes
00:08:30.360
So I had to watch Marley and Me for three fucking days, which is like, at least it's a decent
00:08:42.140
And so I get out and my mom calls me and she was like, you're taking years off my life.
00:08:47.760
