  • It’s been awhile.

    Another phenomenal video.
    ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

    Derek and Ai, You both are a blessing.

    • Stop judging. You don’t know his real story. He could be M.I. in need of a health professional, a vet, who knows.

  • I think his family bought him a one way ticket to paradise so he wouldnt freeze in NY winters.

    This is the result of 30 years of crack and LSD on a daily basis.

  • This is confusing. The interview is long and we have no idea why he ended up on the streets. I think you should break up the video into sections and label them so we can find out why he became homeless.

    • 9:54 He says it all. He HAD a woman who was taking care of her families every need, meaning he was paying for it, and when his money ran out, she left him with nothing and to fend for himself.

  • This guy sounds like a bullshit artist. 2.5 year tourist visa? Cut this faker lose and help honest people

  • That’s sad to die in a foreign country. He needs to be reported to the US EMBASSY so they can look for his family.

  • He is an American problem. Do the right thing. Go to immigration with the video and get him out of the country. He is a danger to the Philippines people. Did you see the children walking bye during the video. You will be doing the right thing.

  • Bro I saw this guy near Fuentes Osmeรฑa Circle when I was there in May. He was clearly a little off his rocker.

    • He doesn’t want to talk about how long he’s been there, probably because he’s over stayed his Visa, and immigration will want him to pay for that over stay, with interest, which he can’t afford. The U.S. Embassy is where he needs to go, they can give him a ticket back to the U.S., which he will have to reimburse them for later.

  • There is a HUGE difference between being accused of something that a person did apposed to something they didn’t. It’s even worse being accused of something that a person didn’t do.

  • I’m at a loss for words. 20 years hiding away is the feeling. Hard to read him. ๐Ÿ™Bless you brother ๐Ÿ™

  • This guy still has his mind, but his brain is another story and is all over the place.

    His personal issues with certain drugs does not allow him to really fit in with the normies. Normies is my term for the regular people, like myself and Yourself, Derek

    With loose help, he will fall again. I see him with borderline schizophrenia.

    • I know “normies”, Kyle. He went full schizophrenia after we backed off. Was shouting a monologue for a good 45 minutes

  • Some times it’s best to just say, dude your fucked and don’t deserve to be helped. If he is as educated as he stated, he should know how to get home. To me, drugs are his vice. Don’t give him anything.

  • he should have social security of some type if he is from Manhattan and immigrated to the Philippines.

  • Yep he was all over the place, Red flags for me too with some of what he said๐Ÿ˜ณ
    It appears heโ€™s a lot fried๐Ÿ˜ข.

    Had he been drinking or under the influence of another substance who knows or just the way his brain is now. (Edit: I watched again, he was sober and also didnโ€™t appear to be under the influence, possibility is because heโ€™s missing teeth)

    Should you decide to approach him again at least with some food, perhaps body wipes etc possibly just record his ranting without the camera, it might help him open up more about his situational circumstances in the Philippines. ๐Ÿซฃ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ
    Nevertheless regardless of his demeanour it was interesting to watch, and possibly someone will actually recognise and know him๐Ÿ‘
    Hang on a minute ๐Ÿซฃ is that a tattoo near his armpit of someone holding his severed head๐Ÿ˜ณ

    • Yes there was all sorts of ” clues ” in here from cocaine addiction , pedophilia , someone pasting his head on to anothers body in photos to get him in trouble etc etc etc Who knows what’s true ?

    • Yeah, I won’t be approaching him again. He wanted me to come back with the camera, but diverted all my questions. He had a schizophrenic episode after we turned the camera off

  • 5 minutes in, and I don’t trust this guy. Like someone else said here, he needs to be escorted to immigration and (hopefully) get help returning home. There’s options for help there. You can’t help everyone. He isn’t “left for dead”, he is avoiding getting jailed or thrown out.

  • Derek you are a Good Listener and have the Patience of Job as even trying to figure out his Real story is going to be difficult. I
    He needs someone to figure out if he is Schizophrenic, or is Bi-polar as he even displays some symptoms of “fastitious disorder” where one makes up stories like a pathological liar as I can see why most Filipinos would avoid him and not sure the US Embassy will have personell to assist him. Hopefully he has some family that can see this video and actually care enough to reach out as sadly he might be a “Lost soul” as trying to have him even declared “Incompetent” is going to be tough. My fear is he will enrage the Wrong Filipino and his life will meet a horrible end. Even involving the Police won’t help as no real facilities, nor does the Embassy have those capabilities and he doesn’t seem to have a “Clear desire” to return to NYC or any part of USA. In his current state which will worsen I Don’t believe there is a “Bernadetta” Filipina Angel out there that would be able to help him; nor do i think you will either sadly as the best is just to check in on him every once in awhile to see if he is surviving and not a Danger to himself or others which may already be so arms length distance is best solution. You are a Very Good person for trying, and only hope someone in his life in US sees this video.

  • One thing about travel: you take yourself with you. If you are a screwup in zone a then you move to zone b, you will still be a screwup. A different zone will not all of a sudden give you good judgement, a sound mind, a sound body, intelligence, etc.

  • Because i watched the Ken Story yesterday its very connecting in the first moments. My tummy told me right away that this dude is a big red flag. He did not answer a single question, tells stories over and over. Maybe because of mental issues which need to be taken care of. I am shure its a good one who met the wrong people, connecting to drugs and since this day his life changed to the bad.

    I still wish him all the best.

    Thanks Derek and Ai for taking us with you.

  • He has a really bad experience overall…. he is also burnout …. I strongly believe that even if he makes it back to USA he will travel somewhere…. including back to the Philippines he doesn’t see his mental illnesses to be part of his problem….and yes? Is very intimidating when someone acts that way… would be interesting if you do a part 2.

  • Alot of rambling ,alot of lies on top of lies he’s like a compulsive liar, the more he talks you realise it’s a lot of females involved he starts with his family members now he abroad and mixed up in paedophile talk, drugs alcohol, claims he has emphysema that put him in ICU yet earlier in the interview he’s seen smoking no cough no breathing trouble I think he’s done something and he’s hiding on the streets no visa so no one can contact him get in hiding he’s poor or not? Oh now drug life certainly becareful he may owe drug dealers and you could end up being held to pay his debt I know it sounds over the top but you never know, at least you feel it, theres something not right maybe one for the authorities don’t let him near your home and keep him away from your lady I’m still not liking that talk concerning the women and his mother poor lady sounds like they were all taking advantage of her what a sad retirement she endured with them, I look forward to your update if you do consider following it up

    • No, unfortunately, no follow up. This man’s situation is beyond my comprehension and I cannot intervene if someone goes out of their way to deceive

  • If doesn’t want your help nothing more you can do but say a prayer for him. You’re a decent man thanks for caring for people God bless you

  • Wow, Derek, even a skilled interviewer would have trouble getting to the heart of the matter with this guy! I believe that the challenge of assisting him might very well be above your pay grade. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผโ™ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

  • You stay safe pls ! That man is full of BS and trouble ! If he wanted to go back to US, the embasdy OR any helporg would help him contact his relatives. NOT give him a phone or flightticket ! He has over stayed his visa big time like so many ! Take care of the Philly kids that really needs it ๐Ÿค— Take care of you and AI …stay safe โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ

    • @@qadventures Too many that should not have gone to Asia from Europe and the US in the first place ! Their VISA is, or at least has been too easy to get. Not like a US or EU visa. Easy life they think ! We cant help everyone…better help the one that wanna get help and get a brighter futureโค๏ธโค๏ธ

  • He said first he haven’t been in any Asian countries besides the Philippines and yet he was in Cambodia?? And then been in PH for 20 years?? What?? This man has a mental issue…

  • The visa comments are nonsense. This is a mental health and addiction issue. He may be a danger to himself or others. His profession is panhandling. Heโ€™d be much better off doing it in America. I just got to the end of the video and you realize all of this.

    • @@qadventures some of your commenters are hyper critical Iโ€™m trying not to be but it would have been a better service to the viewer to clue us in before the end of the video, itโ€™s like a twist in a movie everyone saw coming 2 minutes in ๐Ÿ˜€

  • This guy has never been productive in his entire life. I have no sympathy for him. He is a waste of oxygen.

  • He prefers to be homeless in Ph than in US. In any case, people like him will end up homeless in either country.

  • Derek, you had more than enough patience listening to his ramblings for so long.
    Avoiding answering your questions, speaking a lot of bula bula all the time too.
    You are well clear of him, he’s not your monkey so you did best to walk away.
    I have encountered people who behave very similar to him in my job before, there is just no helping him
    Sorry but I have to be blunt

  • Mental health problem. He needs to be sent home before we see another “Kano” in trouble on the news.

  • QUESTION.
    can he be reported to the USA embassy, or filipino authorities forced detainee and we split the bill to send him back to USA i wouldn’t mind donating for a good cause.
