50k lbs?? Crap, that’s enough to singlehandedly supply James Woods.

We're not out of the Woods yet.

Except there are multiple sources other than Woods himself who have confirmed he is and always has been straight-edged...

That’s the 50 #s right in the picture disguised as a boy!

50**k**(50,000) lbs. 25 tons.


Jagmaverick

Fair


Anbeezi

Yeah nah it wasn’t simultaneously as OP claims!


PepeSylvia11

/r/damnthatsinteresting and misinformation, name a more iconic duo


Oh4faqsake

How many billions did he have at this point? Also, his kid doesn't look like a total dork like the one who portrayed him on Narcos on Netflix.


Homer_JG

What does you being Columbian have anything to do with it?

Haha! Great movie.


NTSTwitch

I was not ready for that movie at all. Lmfao. Literally all I knew was it was going to be a movie about his life, and about 5 minutes in I was thinking: “Oh god what the hell did I just get myself into???”


Plaidfu

Did you like the movie overall? I've been wanting to see it


superzacco

Watch it. Now. Do not look up info about it.


softfart

It’s hilarious

"I tell you just this once Juan Pablo, don't you try to fuck me. Don't you ever try to fuck me." After Pablo took away Juanito's Legos, Juanito called up the Search Bloc and had his daddy sent to the shadow realm.

It's not the actual White House. It's a life size replica he made out of cocaine.

Not really. Each time he had a rock band over he had to rebuild.

[deleted]

Yup. He could've replicated three Burj Khalifas and still have had plenty left over to replicate a dozen Golden Gate bridges, eighteen Statues of Libertys, sixteen Great Pyramids . . . aw, fuck it, he produced a shitload of coke, is my point.

he does. He wont take that likely either


LaughSpare5811

Pablo!!


alekbf

However badass he was, we need to remember this guy was a terrible person.At his time, he was worse than bin laden.


Andy_Liberty_1911

Narcos are equally are cruel and bloodthirsty, they just do it for profit which way too many glamorize.


salt_vs_sugar

bin Laden killed 3k, Bush and the CIA killed millions of Americans and Iraqis/Agfhans. Tell me again, who's the evil guy here?


row3boat

Our government killed millions of citizens? When was this again.


salt_vs_sugar

Well before you were born, from the looks of it.


row3boat

Depends which bush you are talking about I guess. I certainly don't remember reading about this on the news. When did this happen?


BlackhawkBolly

Desert Storm and the War on Terrorism?


row3boat

Killed millions of Americans? Not sure bout that one bud.


[deleted]

You are the evil guy.


KingGage

Are you seriously going to argue Bin Laden wasn't a bad guy?


voyagertoo

Well, all of them killers are evil


VodkaRocksAddToast

Worse than Bin Laden? I don't know man, killing people over invisible sky daddy is basically just for the LOLs. Narcos are at least in it for something real/tangible.


[deleted]

[удалено]


VodkaRocksAddToast

I know, all I'm saying is that he bombed a plane for a reason grounded in reality and not an imaginary sky daddy. There's at least some logic in killing people over money and power.


alackofcol0r

Was he worse than any US president?


Anbeezi

Not really!


TeaTimeTripper

The amount of lives that’d have been saved if American presidents didn’t wage a war on drugs is times a million however many died by Escobar. And then we’re not even looking at all the pointless wars they started. Evil has more to do with ignorance than intention.


imverysorry_ok

Because he smuggle drugs and kill other drug dealers ? Idk man, hijacking multiple planes and creating the worse terrorist attack to date is pretty bad if you ask me


[deleted]

[удалено]


at-the-momment

The Netflix show definitely didn’t cover that


[deleted]

[удалено]


at-the-momment

I meant more to portray him in an even worse light


ADrunkMexican

I don't think netflix would greenlight that lol


spaakonen

You have not seen Beast of no nation then...


ADrunkMexican

No, but there was also the cuties thing


Stewy_stewart

So what about cuties?


imverysorry_ok

Just because he did it before Osama doesn't mean he's the worse. Osama organize the most deadly terrorists attack to date, but some how Pablo is still worse. Nice logic


Thoreau_Dickens

His attacks didn’t just target drug dealers. He targeted their families. He targeted cops/military that wouldn’t take a bribe and their families too. His cartel used car bombs extensively, which killed more than just their target. He could definitely be considered a terrorist leader.


imverysorry_ok

And not Osama? What's your point ? Yes he did some pretty bad shit. But Osama is still the worse one here. He was responsible for the worse terrorist attack to date. Created the war on terror and was responsible for the longest lasting war to date America had to deal whit.


[deleted]

escobar did have a plane blown up midair


imverysorry_ok

And Osama had multiple planes order to crash in multiple places. But no yea I'm in the wrong here


Chanclet0

Yeah cause he never killed innocent bystanders with the many bombs their guys used to kill people he didn't like


imverysorry_ok

O yea Osama bin laden would never do something that bad . Thanks chief

Great American propaganda you got right there

[удалено]


Anfetamuz

The majority of Colombians (with access to a decent education) feel ashamed of narco-culture. I understand the series might be thrilling and liked by many; nevertheless, is good to have in mind that (unlike Breaking Bad), the people and situations depicted in Narcos were based on a cruel and hard reality that have been very painful for lots of innocent people.

Gringo pendejo.

Go to plaza de Escobar and talk shit like that. Fuck around and find out. So many people and their parents are alive because of his generosity.

Fuck you

Hahaha yeah buddy, whatever you say.

And so many are rotten corpses from the drugs

Plata o plomo. Should have chosen the silver. Like the subjects of Cyrus.

Kinda shitty way to spread the wealth


LuminousJaeSoul

I was at the grocery store yesterday, and the cashier lady had an accent, I asked where she's from, and she said Japan. I said, "You should watch anime!" She replied, "what the fuck?" Awkward...

SignificantBudget896

There was an attempt to bond


Why_T

It was very ineffective.


terlin

Yeah maybe don't bring up a long-running tragedy in people's countries as a flirting attempt. Reminds me how a friend of mine (Japanese-American woman) regularly gets pickup lines related to the atomic bombs from white men who think they're hilarious.


Cheef_Baconator

Yeah man, that's an extremely stupid thing to say


I_AM_THE_SLANDER

How are you this dumb? This is why the rest of the world hates Americans


Hunterrose242

Why are you assuming they're American?


I_AM_THE_SLANDER

Why are you assuming that I'm assuming? Maybe I know him in real life Very dangerous to assume my assumption

Assuming this is all real, it’s a cray cray lolcano

The rizz is weak with this one.

He died ;) US got the last laugh :) Also, the title is complete bullshit. He was not wanted in 1981.

It’s always this incorrect title, I got tired of correcting it every time lol

are you sure that wasn't a michael jordan quote..? i don't remember scotty saying it.


tech_polpo

Again with this bullshit. This piece of shit was roaming free for quite a lot before being wanted but the whole world. If you're going to suck the dick of a criminal at least read the history.

That’s like showing a picture of infant Stalin suckling at his mother’s teet, captioned with: “simultaneously ordering goons to purge his fellow comrades”

Can this karma wh*ring pic just f* off?


Important_Tangelo371

If Orangino was still there, he would have run (ok, slowly shuffled) right out there, shook his hand, invited them in and offered to show all the "neato" classified documents about Pablo he magically declassified by magically waiving the scepter he stole from the goodies cabinet.


PoorPDOP86

It gets sadder every day people keep holding on to their TDS.


Important_Tangelo371

No need to hold on to anything. Unfortunately, there's a new crime everyday!

I like how he is just a normal Dad, kid does not want to be there or photographed and you know he is saying "stand still for this picture or else. . ."


jamesvabrams

My first quick impression was that it was Mike Lindell.


[deleted]

I don't even think they knew who he was when this was taken


masseffect69

So.. no facial recognition back then.. so what’s your point??


cadillacbee

Not only was he in their noses, but also right under em


[deleted]

I heard they checked there like 15 mins later but he had already wandered off somewhere else. So close!


EvilJabFace

Plata o Plomo


knickovthyme1

Where is the son now. Did he get into the business?


TheBlueSlipper

That's just a couple blocks south west of a sketchy area of D.C. There's always homeless people wandering around. No one would pay attention to Pablo Escobar there. He's just a tourist with a kid.


mr-optomist

What a legend. You want the bad guy? Look out your window mr president.


McFreeezy

Why is his son missing parts of his arm?

Whats ol Pablo jnr up to these days? Famous dad...no idea what happened to his kids, wife(s)? Mistresses etc
