God bless you. It is wonderful you posted this for everyone to see. Everybody stay away from Colombia. Count on betrayal and harm.No exceptions.Do not look for love or friendship. That is an illusion. Protect yourself.
Hearing many stories on UA-cam you can tell they are 100% genuine which is why story's like yours are amazing to hear but also scary at the same time. Happy you survived it and you learned valuable lesson which has made you stronger in so many ways.
Yea man I learned a lot and luckily I’m doing alright again but when that happened to me it was definitely a tough time. But tough times don’t last forever
@@Irvingvstheworld I have a Paraguayan girlfriend for the last 4 years would trust my life with her most loyal and loving woman i have ever met, but she tells me Paraguay is far safer than Columbia and that i would have to be very careful in Columbia especially dating women. Never been to either place since we both live in Europe would love to go to South America but these story's open my eyes that if your a western tourist you have a huge target on your back. I speak fluent Spanish but i am white blue eyes so i would not look like a local and be prime target to rob.
Thank you for sharing your story. Headed to meet my wifes family in Colombia in a few weeks. I appreciate hearing the story from a fellow tourist as it really puts the condition in a perpective that i can digest alrhough very scary
Same thing happened to a friend in Russia (robbery). But he met 2 girls, went to a bar with them. After drinks, they told him that he owed a $1,500 tab. Some guys took him (by gun) to an ATM and were only able to get $1250. Close enough. He booked a flight home 2 days later.
Always wanted to go to Columbia so beautiful and different. But im to White and know i would have to fight my way out. Glad your ok. Love to listen to all your guys stories. Thats my way of going especially when guys film and the dangers.
You have a good heart! Don’t worry about the negative Nancys and praise God for delivering you! Now you can share, educate and bless others who don’t know. 🤗🙏✨
I’m the same way about exes and relationships. It’s not toxic. You have to be that way in today’s dating scene, especially if you’re a serious man. I’m the same way.
Bro smart move doing what you were told and staying alive. Also thanks for sharing, now I know to leave the beach early and get back to my Airbnb. Also bro why date a pro when you visit a country full of beautiful women on the regular. But smart to block her on everything. That's the best way to do it
Thanks bro and yea man prostitutes are never the way to go, that’s just the easy way out and the easy route is never the good route. If you’re ever in a robbery situation just do what you’re told, the most important thing is your life. Material things can be replaced
No is not the pro that are a problem, their women are dangerous! You can’t trust anyone and all of them are out to scam you or rob you to get whatever they want from a foreigner! US women are not like this
I had no choice man my airbnb was beachside. And nobody thinks about the danger until it actually happens. People get comfortable and never expect anything to happen to them
😮 damn my guy its good you ok but but dang my G you seem like a smart guy but bruh if going to be alone either find a way to learn how to fight and defend yourself because that's crazy 🙏🏽💯 stay Safe
Fighting in this situation is how people die. There were guns, a taser, four men, all in a foreign environment. Did you fully think through what you said?
Winner of dumbest keyboard warrior comment on internet . You stand Zero chance fighting a robbery in colombia . They wont hesitate to shoot you in the head multiple times . If you manage to escape you better take first flight out . I know someone who had a co worker who was a local that they tried robbing . He managed to take gun away . Before day was over the guy he took gun from returned and left him dead in pool of blood . Shot in head. Not even robbed . Just for resisting . You have 0 clue . Stay in your own hood where you can be strapped . Not gonna win or be strapped in colombia as a foriegner or even a native , only criminals and ppl who are citizens that can prove need to carry can. And yeah they didnt even catch the kid that shot him broad daylight , even if they do he wont do much time if any . Its not the same .
All the people in the comments section talking about they never going to COLOMBIA. I literally just got back from Cartagena. I was staying in Boca Grande and everything went well. He made plenty of mistakes. You're dominican and you don't know how to move around.
Maan,this was a dangerous experience, hopefully you all good,i heard how dangerous Cartagena is, this is very traumatic, i used to work in 2 different hospitals here in Boston!!

You are welcome home safe. We one Hmong cousin in Minnesota, jus die from dating online about three months ago. He went to visit his friend in Columbia and meet the girl the restaurant and couples day he went to visit his dating girl apartment and it's was trap after that His friend reported him was gone. Late couples they him was death by stabbing and shot. To day they elebration his funeral dead right now. T
I think Colombia as a whole is too dangerous right now. Yes there’s cities that seem safe but I just think that as a tourist we’re just always a target no matter where it is. My honest opinion would be wait a year or 2 and see if the danger has slowed down. Right now Colombia is hot when it comes to danger
Bruh..listened to both parts. After all of the near death experiences you had in Columbia, you are still going there to visit some strange chick? How many chances do you think you are granted in life? When does common sense kick in? Seriously??
@@IrvingvstheworldWould you consider flying your girlfriend out to a neutral ground like Panama? She may be cool now, but she could turn if she falls into desperate times.
@Irvingvstheworld 😆 going in 3 weeks 👀 but with guy friends. I usually go alone but I guess I been lucky because I have been out in about at 3am 4am alone
interesting story however a couple of comments. There's NO CONVENIENT STORE on the beach side in BocaGrande; you have to get back to San Martin to find any...Also why didn't you go to the nearby police station in BocaGrande? How come cancelling everything once in your Hotel not mentioned?
Bro yes there is. There called la rebaja, farmatodo, there drugstores/ convenience stores that are open 24/7. My airbnb was beachside so I had no choice to walk beachside until I turn a corner onto the next street over . Get your facts straight before commenting. I didn’t go to the police station because what they took wasn’t that significant and I had a backup phone. I didn’t wanna go to the police and then be worried about them retaliating . I was traveling alone. I took the loss and moved on.
You are very touchy for a UA-camr. You tell a story so that people comment on it and not so that people judge you. No one judges you, least of all me. You are attacked and the first reaction of the most common mortal would have been to go to the authorities to at least report an attack. Furthermore, I live in Cartagena and in Bocagrande and most of those stores are on San Martin not on the beach side. Why would a 24/7 store open on the beach side when after 6 or 7PM there's no one there. Come on man
@@nanou19604 I’m not touchy I just dislike negative comments like yours. My story is real, whether you choose to believe it is on you. If you were in that situation and you chose to go to the cops then that’s on you. I was alone and didn’t want any problems in a foreign country so I chose to take the loss.
@@nanou19604 I never said it was beachside. I said my airbnb is beachside and to walk to the store I need to turn onto the next street. But it’s fine all you’re doing is mixing up my words to try and make it seem like I’m lying. You clearly don’t know anything about Cartagena
@shaunlindsey5132 yea man im glad to be alive and trust me I appreciate every day a lot more . Before this happened I kinda felt immortal but when you come close to death it makes you snap back to reality
Interesting, the picture of this video shows black faces in Colombia with guns. Did you ever mention race? Why were Afro-colombians shown pulling this crap??
I'm calling BS... You do significant traveling and you do your research before hand. So, you decided on an lengthy stay in Cartagena...But, you don't like ladies of the night??? So, why did you go to cartagena?
I did my research about Cartagena in general, nobody tells you the little safety tips. This was back in 2022, back in that time there weren’t much videos about safety. And in no video does anyone tell you you can’t walk along the beach at night. My story isn’t bs
@@LifeAlive86 not everyone is into that bro. I have no problems getting normal girls, why would I go for ladies of the night that been with hundreds of guys? Just so you know, normal Colombian girls are wayyyyyyy better than

You’re welcome and be safe . If you have family here then you should be fine
My Brother who goes out late at night
Let us know how it went......IF you get back ??
Will do
Damn bro. I'm glad you are safe. As always, hard lesson to learn right there.
Thanks bro and yea it’s tough

What city are you going to
@@Irvingvstheworld Santa Marta
I’m not there. I’m in Cucuta. If you decide to come here then you can message me if anything

Thanks and you should still visit Colombia, don’t let all these videos turn you off to coming. There’s still a lot of good here in colombia
Are you pretending to be a victim, huh? It was colonization & imperialism that created these situations-who are the main actors?
Glad you are safe 🙏
Thanks I appreciate the comment
Wow interesting story so far. I’ve been to Medellín n back back soon. I actually want to visit Cucuta at some point
You should come, it’s definitely different and it’s not a tourist town but you’ll feel like you stand out here for sure
@@Irvingvstheworld yea I had that feeling when I was there since I went to more local neighborhoods
Glad you are safe
Thanks 🙏 I appreciate the comment

But you said yourself you guys weren't even dating.
So you expect loyalty when you can't even put the dating title on it?👀
