YouTubers Who Tried Outsmarting Police

[00:00] What if I told you some of your favorite YouTubers almost outsmarted the police, to another who crashed a plane for views and almost got away with it, First,

[00:15] whose dangerous actions led him to being arrested. Wake your ass up! When someone's passed out like this,

[00:28] Where do you live? And he's still legally responsible for anything he says, There are rare cases where someone is so impaired they can't understand anything,

[00:45] So how did you get over here? He should be invoking his right to remain silent. Rescue to come check you out?

[00:57] You don't have no weapons, anything on you? Officers allow Pat to warm up in the back of the cruiser while his Letting him into the cruiser just to warm up doesn't mean he's under arrest.

[01:12] I should be wary of? Do you mind if I search your bag real quick? Big mistake!

[01:26] Now they have probable cause to detain him and continue their investigation. And they're literally weighing the stuff on the spot, weed

[01:40] It's not, it's not a regular legal in this state he doesn't have any prescription. They're asking him

[01:54] Have you been smoking as well? You don't smoke, but you have -- in your possession? You'll have to ask to my lawyer, I guess.

[02:09] sounds close, you should be clear: "I want a lawyer and I choose to remain silent," and charged with the crime of possession.

[02:24] Just put your arms like you're praying. Oh! Oh, no, no, no! When you pull away like that, officers treat it as resisting,

[02:39] Kilo 261 fighting one! Stop resisting! okay? I said we're good already!

[02:51] Why do you keep saying stop? When I said good? Said we're good, buddy. I said I'm good. Hey, you're about to get tased!

[03:04] It looks like they've secured him. because it was a small possession charge, a permanent criminal record.

[03:18] which is really good, and I hope he stays on that path. who tried illegally sneaking a painting past French police! And just 20 meters away,

[03:34] maximum security art gallery. like what Niko's doing here, it's sometimes called false insertion. but it can get you arrested just as fast as if you stole something.

[03:48] So entering the gallery, before you even scan your tickets, That looks like a scanner, similar to the ones airport security uses, If you have a suspicious package, you aren't getting in, so whatever -

[04:03] in every room, there's one room that I would almost definitely be invisible in. And this is one of the hardest rooms in the world to pull something off like this.

[04:20] The second you attach anything to a museum surface, which is highly illegal. The linework's actually really good. I'm impressed!

[04:34] the next creator wasn't so lucky. Take your hands out your pockets. He buys different types of cars and then stress-tests them in

[04:46] But this doesn't look like one of his normal videos. He doesn't know what he's getting arrested for yet. they need to confirm the person isn't carrying anything that could harm them.

[05:02] This is a criminal summons. A criminal summons is basically an order from a judge telling you to show up It's like being formally invited to court under threat of arrest if you ignore it.

[05:16] What is this for? Normally, for a tax issue, you'd first get a letter in the mail, Then you'd have to go to court, and if you don't, then you'd be arrested.

[05:30] Means there's more going on here. Sheriff's department has this Whistlin Diesel, or whatever your company is called.

[05:45] Oh, so the other stuff? Both WhistlinDiesel and his business one for him personally and one for the company.

[05:57] I'm tightening them, Officers are trained to make sure you can't slip out of handcuffs, It's uncomfortable, but it's standard procedure.

[06:10] This is county. Not sure what this is for, but they say it's tax evasion. Now, this is a problem.

[06:22] So while he's bleeped out specifics in this video, Remember, anything you say can be used against you! So I'm looking up the current case,

[06:36] He says he bought a Ferrari F8 worth around $400,000, instead of where he lives, which is Tennessee. charge sales tax on vehicles.

[06:50] qualification for the amount of time that that vehicle would be in is that sales tax isn't about time; it's about use.

[07:02] the state can then treat that as a taxable event. It was, was it ever used in Tennessee? If the answer is more than a few days, Tennessee can try to claim taxes.

[07:15] This case is ongoing, so we'll have to see how it turns out, Now, this next one is different but the entire CIA.

[07:29] It's October 2015, a cool autumn day, and the director of the CIA receives a strange call from an unknown number. John Brennan. Guess who owns your phone now?

[07:43] So first, this is harassing a government official. So this is going to be treated as a serious federal cybercrime. It was easy, bro.

[07:57] Your phone number, your address, So in the US, even if information is publicly listed, you're creeping into extortion territory.

[08:11] The caller is revealed to be a 15-year-old boy in England. But this wasn't the beginning. One of Cracker's first targets was the then US Director of National Intelligence,

[08:25] and even parts of his address were so easy to find that Cracker accessed There's a lot of this information doesn't come from being hacked.

[08:40] a profile that anyone can buy. Alongside their automated data removals, with their custom data removal tool, and their experts will contact those sites directly to get

[08:55] grant permission for them to work on your behalf, Cracker posts screenshots online, Another teen, named Default

[09:09] they form a loose group coordinating from bedrooms in different countries. Once you have a group working together toward an illegal outcome,

[09:21] step it up, flooding Brennan's home line, his cell, even calling his family. claiming to be a field technician working on Brennan's connection.

[09:33] He provides a fake employee ID, one he invents on the spot. This is social engineering. you're not entitled to. And legally,

[09:48] criminal impersonation. With access to Brennan's private email, Cracker downloads sensitive files, He uploads a 47-page security clearance form to WikiLeaks,

[10:02] Leaking that is almost certainly distributing national defense information. The kind of charge you get for stealing a country's secrets. The group goes further, breaking into DOJ databases,

[10:15] and leaking the personal data of thousands of agents. This is high-level security crime now. And in the early morning hours, the FBI raids Default's home,

[10:32] while the British police simultaneously storm Cracker's house. They grab every storage device within reach: hard drives, Anything that can hold data gets taken.

[10:47] So if you want to protect yourself while supporting the channel, and get 60% off an annual plan. So Cracker was the first minor in UK history imprisoned for hacking.

[11:04] the maximum allowed under UK law. He was in his early 20s plus over $140,000 in restitution! Unbelievable.

[11:17] It is clear these creators put real thought into what they wanted to pull off. All right, we challenge you all to a duel! This is going to end badly, isn't it?

[11:31] Go. He's just intentionally trying to piss off the cops. Ignoring that can turn into resisting an officer really fast.

[11:45] And he just ignored the order again. the officer has more justification to detain or arrest him. He's just not listening to any of their orders.

[12:01] He blocked the road and ignored repeated commands. That carries up to one year in county jail, He's facing seven years!

[12:16] So there must be more to this. I got him. Back up! No, back up!

[12:28] Just major disrespect to the cops here, which isn't gonna It looks like they found an orange pill So now it's not just about blocking the road.

[12:41] didn't have a prescription for. So legally, he's looking at up to five years on the felony drug charge and up to one year each But those are just some maximums on paper, not what most people actually get.

[12:55] that gives his lawyer a strong way to attack the felony charge. My guess is he'll probably get probation and fined since he there's more on my Mike Off The Record YouTube channel.

[13:11] It's clear that Jack's choices came from sheer ignorance. I'm just going to be bringing in all my guys, I'm from corporate, I told you so.

[13:26] using a fake corporate title to get access to somewhere you're not I'm calling in my guys and they're going to be working on all these cars! All right, let's see.

[13:39] workers to be there. Come on, come on, come on! Come on! What the heck?

[13:54] They're screaming, This is a pre-planned prank Bringing a crowd into a business and pretending they work there is criminal

[14:08] They can't work on the cars because of this prank. I can't do cheaper than a thousand for the catalytic, Arizona's laws on criminal impersonation basically say you're breaking

[14:24] He did this the moment he said he was from corporate and used that And since that part of the law is a felony, too. As of right now,

[14:38] He's out on bail while it moves through the courts, two counts of criminal impersonation, five counts of disorderly conduct,

[14:50] all of which could carry a maximum sentence of just under 10 years in prison. the next one has already been sentenced for what he did.

[15:04] What's going on here? This plane's looking weird.

[15:16] Is that the propeller stopped moving? got an engine out!

[15:32] In an actual engine failure, pilots run checklists, communicate, He does none of that. Pilots in the United States have a duty to avoid putting

[15:45] Shutting an engine down is sometimes part of the training process, could be grounds for an FAA investigation. Why does he have a selfie stick if this is an emergency?

[16:00] Looks like this plane is going to crash... Oh!! Investigators rely on the wreckage to understand what went wrong. it shifts the whole case from an accident to a deliberate act,

[16:16] So giving them a made-up explanation is not just dishonest, and hides what really happened. step-by-step breakdown of intent.

[16:30] The same footage that got him views turns into evidence against him. the next creator is facing up to 24 years in a prison far from home. Here we go, Chat!

[16:49] I have a very important question for you. Mhm. Can I shove this up here?

[17:02] Can I put this in you? It's a video game... Mario Kart But walking up to an officer and messing with them like this is not good content.

[17:18] you can even criticize the police, But in a country like the Philippines, they do not play around with disrespect toward public officials.

[17:30] What's he doing now? But that's the least of his worries right now. He's... literally taking the cop's bike.

[17:43] The cop doesn't want to do anything, he's like... This is not a prank anymore. even if you're joking, the law calls that theft.

[17:56] Their courts treat that like you took property. the country is a theme park. I want you to... chase me.

[18:10] Can I have a hug? Why is he messing with this guy so much? Okay. Look at that.

[18:23] Security, co Can I give you a kiss? No, I have a question for you.

[18:36] Are you kidding me? Yet again, he's taking property that isn't his, the term they often use is "unjust vexation".

[18:52] trouble or embarrassment. They can also charge you with "alarm and scandal" for disrupting the public. I'm the new general in town!

[19:09] You say, keep it, speed run. Jail time. I'm sorry. Can I change? Sir, listen to me.

[19:22] Test mic. Is it gonna get worse? They won't recognize me.

[19:38] This is straight up theft. and the fact that he's running away with it Now, now Vitaly's been arrested.

[19:54] And this is a televised event about his arrest. This is the worst thing you can do! Judges notice that. which made this so much worse for Vitaly.

[20:09] no respect for the court, and no remorse! There's already a problem with YouTubers flying into these countries, Countries in Asia are tired of it.

[20:24] so they crack down hard. to set an example with Vitaly. Wow. He has

[20:38] It looks like he's, he's been on that show, Survivor. he's facing multiple criminal charges in the Philippines that could add up to a theoretical maximum of about 24 years if you stack them all together.

[20:50] He posted bail on the criminal cases, but immigration immediately detained him. If you like this video, check out "Crimes YouTubers Were Saved From."
