Bankok Hilton: The Terrible Bangkok Hilton
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 чер 2024
- Drug trafficking and drug smuggling are always a bad idea.
But getting involved in the drug trade in Thailand is the worst possible idea you could ever have. Even the tiniest amount of illegal substances found on your person or luggage may get you in deep trouble with law enforcement. And if you are found guilty of drug-related charges, you will be sentenced to years, if not decades, of harsh prison.
Your likely destination: Bang Kwang Central Prison, better known as “The Bangkok Hilton”.

The thought of being in this prison and basically a lot of foreign prisons is truly terrifying, I know the central American ones are really awful 😱
Don't mess around in foreign countries.
Gah dam these KEEPS sponsorships must be paying off! I swear in the last video his head was clean as a _Whistle_ *(BA DA BUM BUM TSS!)*
The description of the prison has given me a stomach ache 🤢🤢🤢🤢
Get a prescription from the prison doctor.
Loving those videos, Karl. :D Your tangents and side comments remain highly enjoyable!
"Slightly less aerodynamic" 😂
With countries like this you need to be really careful that your personal medication doesn't run afoul of the law.
At this point I'd even say, just... Don't go in any other country if you're on medication at all. It just takes one mistake, or one person who doesn't like you, and you're stuck in prison for who knows how long.
As a long time subscriber, I really enjoyed this video! Great pacing and the right amount of humor at the right times. Well done!
I first learned of this prison from American Dad... Didn't know it was a real place. They depicted it much nicer than what reality shows, however.
Love your content karl! Please do Agincourt 😊😊😊😊😊
Is it just me, or does "have the day you deserve" sound like a threat?
Well, it depends on what kind of day you deserve now, does it? ;)
Amazing work as always karl! Suggestion: Westminster Abby
Absolutely loving you Karl! Love your presenting style! Keep it up mate! 👍🏻
Thanks so much!
More top shelf quality content from Karl Massivewood 😊😊😊
I’ve seen enough Banged Up Abroad episodes to know Thai prisons aren’t much fun.
I always thought that people caught with drugs were idiots. Until I visited Mexico and was hanging out on a quiet beach in the evening. Some police with guns approached and demanded money. We asked why, they said because we had drugs. We said no we didn’t and they pointed their guns at us and told us that we would have drugs on us if we didn’t give them money. Bit of an eye opener!
great piece
Less aerodynamic is mad 😂
Thank you.
Great video, Karl!
This video along with 2 books has made me add Thailand to my list of places never to visit.
It's just not worth the risk.
It is a super safe country to visit. You will never feel threatened anywhere. (except the roads - they are dangerous). Don't do drugs.
@@philread7668 I enjoy weed too much to risk going I'm afraid.
new video yay
Rumour has it Bruce Mercer is now living in a multi floor mansion in Phuket with a 6 figure pension 🤔
Any one else get hotel adverts while watching this video?.
Sounds like a great vacation trip. Where can I book my stay?

It's taken a few videos... But I'm rather taking a like to you Mr. Smallwood
The way Karl's face fell at the name of the current ruler of Thailand 😭 you did it and it was good congratulations 🎉
I'd love to see more geographics on Thailand to be honest. My heart longs to go back. Too poor.
Dental nurse _Judith Payne?_ "♪There's a little black spot on the sun today."
You may find yourself in a bit of a sticky wicket!
I've read a lot of books about this hellish place & not one has mentioned getting veg with their rice , more like an Inedible fish head broth with balls of rock hard dirty rice.
it aught to be noted in regards to mercers opinions on the place, the deplorable state of Australian detention centres.
That's the first thing I questioned when hearing the praise: Just how bad ARE Australian prisons??
@sujimtangerines the prisons are about average. not great but not the worst. the detention centres break several un laws and stuff
Has there ever been a riot at this place? It seems like the kind of place where a prison riot would be very likely.
Vajiralongkorn for some reason makes me want to listen to Freak on a Leash
Smallwood, bangkok 😂🤭 so unfortunate
LOL. a little on the nose.
😝😂
This episode reminded me of the movie Brokedown Palace... sad movie.
It also reminded me of the Sheriff in the Amazon tv show "Wayne"😂 When he fights the evil step dad. He takes off his shirt and shoes, and was all tatted down with Thai prison tatts. And proceeds to explain to this guy how he learned Mui Thai in prison, in his many fights to the death... he then commences to fukin evil step dad up. 😂
Is Simon okay? Does anyone know? No updates or what??!
he left the channel, they did an explainer a few weeks ago on the biographics channel
What?!?! Say it ain’t so!!
He left this show, because of some behind the scènes issues.
Nothing bad, just the old channel owner died and the new owner (his daughter) was trying to keep it going bit was depressed.
@Lord_Foxy13 pretty good summary
I bet he got caught up with drugs
Where the fuck is Simon?
I saw on a different video filmed inside of the prison that the Americans only do 7 years I believe and then get sent back to the states. Not sure how true this is.
This reminds me of Rikki Oh.
Nice one Karl (except for the Moo-ay thigh, It is pronounced Tai. Like the country; Thailand). Well done on the king's name. Damn near perfect. I live here for a good while now. Do not mess with drugs kids.
Lovely place sounds a right blast
Dude, WE HAVE THE SAME LAST NAME!
Okay so from what I know from when I went to Thailand, always have bribe money. Keep an extra $400 American on you. Somehow. Bribes ain't cheap but Thai jail is scary
While I have no interest in ever visiting Thailand, and no interest in using or trafficking in illegal drugs, this should offend the conscience of anyone who views this.
Long story short, don't visit any country that brutalizes its prisoners.
If you're American - Hypocrisy alert!
Leathal injection is more humane? Not everyone will agree.
Re your presenting style, you're quite eloquent, but it would be a good idea not to use glottal-stops. They really are downmarket!
Typo in the title guys.
I about to say whats he doing here
where the hell is the bald guy
I miss that bald head
It's a wig
bring simon back!!
Who r u ? Where is the other guy ?
He left the channel, they explained it a couple months ago on the TopTenz channel in a video titled "Its all my fault"
Simon left this show, because of some behind the scènes issues.
Nothing bad, just the old channel owner died and the new owner (his daughter) was trying to keep it going bit was understandably depressed.
Karl is really cool, he used to write for TopTenz
50 cent, and many others have 9+ holes, id rather neither, since you could survive either and have to live with that, at least in theory the machine guns should be faster, and cooler for sure
Wheres Simon in this video? Hes most likley is rotting away at the “bangkok hilton” as we speak, ironic becuz its the namesake of this video.
Thi Bats or Bart?
Would that make you a Smallhost?
13:20 you sit on a chair reading from a screen into a camera xD barely a job bud
I suggest that you shave your head bald, grow a beard, put glass on and a more formal casual suit than a coconut shirt 🙃
Simon come back 😢
Please go away or keep your negative comments to yourself.
Where is Simon?
He left the channel, they explained it a couple months ago on the TopTenz channel in a video titled "Its all my fault"
Danny escaped and locked him in the basement
Who? Never heard of him
I love muy thigh
I don't get it, this video it's like we should sympathize with whose prisoners. They are in there for a reason. This how prison should look like, not like those in for example in Sweden.
The purpose of prisons is to house and rehabilitate. Rehabilitation means less chance of the crime being committed again
Still no Simon? Still no view then 👋
He left the channel, they explained it a couple months ago on the TopTenz channel in a video titled "Its all my fault"
Simon is not coming back despite your whinging
@Jezus42 I genuinely don't care about who the host is. However the cult of Simon worship is irrelevant to me. I watch some of his other channels, not all.
I prefer good content in an interesting format. Karl currently does a good job.
How do you suggest Dimon and you "steal the channel?"
@Jezus42 So why are you still here commenting if you hate it so much?
Bored, trolling or just nothing else in your life?
If they delete all the negative comments why are yours still here?
Simon is NOT coming back. So build a bridge and get over it!
@Jezus42 What is the point? Simon is not coming back. Your trolling in the comments actually helps the channels' algorithms, making it more popular.
You know you have a lot of channels when one can go to 10%-20% of it's normal views and still put out content. This one will be unsubscribed from until Simon comes back, sorry

@@caleba9648oh they did? Usually interim means temporary. Guess it's a permenant unsub
I really like this, and I'm a big Simon fan, Karl is different, but give him a chance. I like him. He has worked with Simon, and he left on good terms. The owner died, and the daughter needed time to get over this and couldn't keep up with the channels. So give it a shot you can like Karl and still love our Simon. And now, when people ask where he is, I tell them Danny escaped and locked him in the basement and were planning a rescue now 😂
Simon is not coming back. Karl has been presenting for the last 2-3 months now.
I did give him a chance, and after 5 minutes, the voice got on my nerves. He isn't calm and soothing, he doesn't speak clear words. If I liked him. I'd follow his actual channels
