Banged up abroad?

jimpump

just been watching a few episodes, would you risk smuggling H,Coke etc. for 100 k quid?

Celly Smunt

been there done that.

now i have a swimming pool.

Saila

yes because after watching that I know no one ever gets caught...easy money!

Latchy

Watched a few episodes in this series and last one and the one about the Irish girl who was banged up abroad was on last week although it seems she had the stuff implanted in her bag .

Answer to question is NO ...never

mackg

No, risking spending your whole life in some pit of a jail in Thailand is not worth it. I assume people that do it are heavily in debt already and have no real choice in the matter. Either that or they have no sense what so ever.

I used to go to Amsterdam regularly & always brought home bags of drugs.

The only time I didn't carry some back, I got stopped by a dude with a sniffer dog & had my bags & myself searched.

Stupid dog.

Banged up.

And then Gang-Banged up.

Nope.

F*ck no.

That programme cracks me up. They are always complete morons on it. And it's always in the dodgiest countries where the sentences are life/ death penalty

I remember one woman who was living it up in Goa, got a bit fond of the charlie and didn't want to go home. She sent the package (i think it was hash) from the exact same post office not once, not twice but three times! And this was in a massive city like Mumbai or New Delhi. Eh love, maybe you should use another post office ffs! Then, when the third package didn't reach its destination in Europe, she called the post office to find out what happened and physically called back in where of course, the drug squad were waiting for her. What a muppet.

Funnier still are the ones who do try it from South America. The prisons are always completely mental.

You clearly stood out and smelt different to the rest of the passengers, probably the only one on board not carrying anything

I know for a fact that several European airports employ sniffer dogs every single time at the 'backstage' of the baggage delivery. Every flight.

Sure it only takes the dog one walk around the luggage belt to find suspicious ones.

So would I do it?

Not using my bag I wouldn't but maybe some training with the goatce guy would allow an alternative vessel to be used.

K?
You wouldn't get 100 grand for smuggling something over.
I've watched the show many times myself. The runner usually gets a few grand alright. But nothing spectacular like 100k.

Both counts no.

Pass.

If you smuggled and got caught, you'd be able to park a bus in your rectum by the time you got out of prison.

As much as I hate to say it, Mythbusters does lie on somethings. Such as this, and when they had Adam drive "drunk" when he had only reached the legal limit and his driving was all over the place. They will try to justify laws and stuff like that.

Azureus

Used to watch it but it was always the same...some idiot seduced by money gets locked up. Moral lesson-dont smuggle drugs.
No ****.

I remember that one.. one of my favourite episodes..

I also love Nothing to Declare.. Anyone see the one where the South African oul lad tries to bring in a load of 'statues' in his luggage.. for a guy who's name he couldn't remember, who he had let pack his bag for him.. LOL.. too funny..

Statues were packed to the gills with coke.. and the paint was still wet on them and everything... The guy was sweating buckets from the get go :pac:

Someone I once knew (not personally, but he lived in the same small town as me) was caught off the coast of Martinique on his yacht with another woman with a ton of cocaine with a value of 42 million Euro - that was 5 months ago and AFAIK they are still in prison in Martinique waiting for their process to begin.

That's one hell of a date.

:eek:

Wow. I can see the temptation. Delivering by a yacht is the way to go. The sea is so open out there and you are incredibly unlucky to get stopped and searched. There's agreement between Britain and Ireland about not stopping anyone by boat. You can get from Antrim to Scotland by boat in just a few hours and I'm sure a lot of people who were involved in the Troubles took advantage of this.

I know people who have sailed yachts back from France, Croatia and Portugal who haven't been stopped. It's a huge potential money earner.

Would prefer to spend 10 years in a foreign prison than stay a few months in MountJoy - listening to Paddy O'Gorman on Pat Kenny ATM.

Was there two weeks ago and they were training them in the main terminal, the security guy was walking around and hiding something and two minutes later the guy with the dog would come, every time he found something the dog would be given a toy...........

Little ****er.............

CuriousOne

Off topic, I know, but, I was is Schiphol one time - absolutely para - and ended up dumping my nose and ear trimmer in case they thought it was a dildo.

I know, crazy!

P.S would have put more comma's in, if I could.

Big fan of the show myself, it's very entertaining to watch.

A lot of times it seems the people have gone too far before they realise they're up ****s creek and can't go back. For example, if a drug dealer puts you up in a 5 star hotel and gives you a huge amount of money to spend during your ''trip'' it would be very difficult to think you won't get your head blown off if you try and do a runner. Not to mention they'd more than likely have someone watching you all the time.

If nothing else hopefully the show will create a bit more awareness and stop people from doing it.

Also, I've never seen an episode of it yet where there's no family/friends involved after he/she is arrested. If you're ever stuck for money or something abroad just phone family/friends, etc. They will help. It's better to make that phone call than spend years fending off Big Mufasa from tearing into you in some hell hole.

I doubt it - they only painted over "death to drug dealers" on the walls of Ninoy Aquino airport fairly recently. If you aren't wedged into a small wire mesh cage with fifty other prisoners being fed scraps by charitable strangers through the slats, you get to go into solitary, which is a concrete coffin without enough room to sit up or stretch your arms out on either side. And forget about air conditioning.

I cannot envision what manner of gobshite would risk that. Suppose I should watch the show to find out.

It's hard to see them putting a foolproof smuggling method on the Discovery Chanel, somehow.

As an aside Schipol Airport uses a sniffer pig to sniff out trouble. Vietnamese, no less.

Did anyone see the fat chick who decided to smuggle a load of coke from Columbia to the US in exchange for 10k so she could get gastric bypass surgery?

Dumbass of the highest order!

Mr. Loverman

I've watched all the episodes. This is what I learnt.

1. When at the airport, DO NOT LOOK NERVOUS. This means take a beta blocker (or Xanax, or whatever) to chemically keep you calm, and be doing something like munching on a croissant and drinking a coke as you go through customs.　Ｍｏｓｔ　ｏｆ　ｔｈｅ　ｐｅｏｐｌｅ　ｇｅｔ　ｃａｕｇｈｔ　ｂｅｃａｕｓｅ　ｔｈｅｙ　ｌｏｏｋ　ｎｅｒｖｏｕｓ　ａｔ　ｔｈｅ　ａｉｒｐｏｒｔ．

2. Wrap the drugs around your body rather than put them in the bag, i.e. remove the x-ray machine risk.

3. Don't do the crime unless you're willing to do the time!

What I find most mad is that the people only get paid about $5k to import the drugs. ＮＯＴ　ＷＯＲＴＨ　ＩＴ！！
