Pablo Escobar's Final 24 Hours

 00:00:00 - 00:10:00In the YouTube video titled "Pablo Escobar's Final 24 Hours," the last days of notorious drug lord Pablo Escobar are explored. Despite evading capture since 1991, Escobar's final hours were marked by a fatal mistake that led to his downfall. On the eve of his death, Escobar was celebrating his birthday in his self-built prison, La Catedral, but his time there was cut short after he executed two of his henchmen on prison premises. This led to international outrage and the imminent threat of extradition to the U.S.

As the hours ticked down, Escobar became increasingly anxious, knowing that his family was in danger and that the authorities were closing in on him. He sent a message to a radio station in Medellin, expressing his frustration and concern for their safety. In those final moments, Escobar faced the reality of his impending capture and the potential harm to his loved ones.

The video also explores the claims made by individuals close to Escobar regarding his final moments. Escobar's son, Sebastian, believes that his father may have chosen to end his life strategically rather than falling victim to law enforcement. He claims that Escobar had warned him against using the phone and had taught him how to commit suicide if captured. The gunshot wounds on Escobar's body were found in his leg, torso, and right ear, leading Sebastian to believe that his father may have taken his own life. The debate continues as to what actually transpired in those final hours of Pablo Escobar's life.See more00:00:00 In this section of the YouTube video titled "Pablo Escobar's Final 24 Hours," the last days of notorious drug lord Pablo Escobar's life are explored.

Escobar, who had been on the run from law enforcement for years, had made a call to his family, unknowingly alerting the search block to his location. The search block, led by Colonel Hugo Martinez, had been relentlessly pursuing Escobar since its creation in 1986. Escobar had killed many of the Colonel's men and tried to bribe him, but Martinez remained determined.

However, it was a group called Los Pepes, sponsored by the Cali cartel, that had been the most dangerous adversary for Escobar. They had been hunting down his associates and had even destroyed his mother's haciendas and mailed bombs to his close associates. Los Pepes was rumored to be working hand in hand with the search block in the final mission to capture or kill Escobar.

Escobar, now a fugitive with no place to run, had made an incriminating call to his family, and the search block, along with Los Pepes, were closing in on him. It was a father-son standoff, with Martinez's son tracking down Escobar's location, and Escobar communicating with his own son on the phone. When the search block arrived at his location, they found his bodyguard, El Limon, attempting to escape, and he was immediately killed. Escobar, cornered on the rooftop, opened fire on the search block and the Colombian police, but he was killed in the return fire.
