Wait, he didn't die on his own terms. He would have wanted to live, but was compelled to suicide. Bet you wouldn't say, Hitler died in his own fucking term 😄
It does make perfect sense. A man like Escobar would not want to risk being killed by his enemies, as this would tarnish his reputation and history would paint him as the loser. And the police would much prefer to take him alive and parade him around, as that would give them far more satisfaction than killing him. He would end it on his own terms before they got the chance so that he could deny them the satisfaction. My best guess is that he probably took a few hits in the initial exchange of gunfire when they breached the door, then once he realized his wounds had made it impossible to escape he made the final decision. And because history is written by the ones who are still alive when the dust settles, the Colombian police found the wound in his ear and in a bid to preserve their ego, told the press that one of their own fired the last shot. Of course they'd want people to think they won a gunfight against the most powerful man on their continent, if people knew the truth then the legend of Escobar would have been made far more influential than it was and it would have certainly been a significant embarrassment for the police.
It doesn’t matter if Pablo committed suicide or was killed by the dozens of armed Colombian soldiers wanting revenge for his atrocities. He was going to die on the rooftop regardless.

My wife lived through those time.. many time he would set up the "coche bomba" or the car bombs, he would detonate those bombs with no regards of the surroundings. he was truly an animal!
What a stupid statement. He couldn't have killed everyone. I survived a horrible war 4 years long and many of my friends died but I lived. What does your comment mean anyways?
theres no way he lived half his life running from the law and yet he forgot that calling his family on the landline would trace him. He did it on purpose because he was running out of options. he knew he was at the end of the road and had to stop running. In fact that phone call was to his family to say goodbye. pretty obvious it was a suicide.
Work sucks. Unless it's something you like... then it's usually fun. Unless you have to do it... then it becomes work. But it's still not as bad as real work. Which sucks.
i have heard of this final showdown, but it varied in some detail. the other version corroborates that his wounds on the rooftop were incapacitating, but not life threatening. the task force knew if he recovered in custody, he would formulate another escape. so they gave him a kill shot in the ear. if he wanted to commit 'suicide by cop," why did he run instead of shooting it out in the room?
Not saying that it happened that way but I would argue there is a diffrence between being in a house that is surrounded by police (he was used to those situations, left his own prison while the army was storming it) and being injured by gunshots on a rooftop with no escape route and no bodyguards. He probably tried his best to get away and when he had the chance to atleast take his own life he went for that option. Also I don't think that him escaping custody would be realistic because they would have extradited him to the US immediately.. I am saying this because that's exactly what they did to the Cali guys a few years after.
thank you everyone for your thoughtful replies. there are 2 versions of Pablo Escobar's death depending on the 2 visions of Pablo Escobar. Escobar is a romantic hero to some. His suicide as his last act seems an honorable way to go, depriving the cops of the last word. the other side sees him as a vicious criminal that eluded and bribed authorities for years while kingpinning a huge lethal drug cartel. this group wanted him dead, thus the kill shot in the ear. it would be easy to prove one story while debunking the other by an autopsy. the distance from the head of the muzzle, muzzle burns and powder stains, the caliber of the bullet and the angle of entry would be conclusive proof one way or the other. Lacking this evidence, the legend of Pablo Escobar continues.
Pablo is a true gangster. He said he would never be taken alive, and he held true to his word. Unlike EVERY OTHER supposed gangster who said the same thing, but when it came down to it, they surrendered.
Gangster who killed innocents child and people who had nothing to do with violence. God knows how many innocent men he had killed who were probably on their first day of duty and wanted to make their nation proud. Still ppl act as if he was a personality to see. He was a rat. A bad animal who didn't deserve to be human. He killed many. And still u write as if he was a sigma. I dont know whats happening to the society.
@@sahilverma4801whoa, calm down. Y you taking it personal. Some people grew up different. I'M OBVIOUSLY BOUT THAT LIFE. Not everyone grows up with a mom and dad, or has structure in there lives to take the right path in life. Some have to fend for themselves early in life when they should be a child, but life ain't so pretty for everyone. U might be one of the fortunate ones, but I wasn't like many others. So these are the types of people some look up to because he came from nothing to a billionaire by ANY MEANS NECESSARY. When u choose to do something in life you GO HARD OR GO HOME.
To be honest here, the chance that a bullet would find its way to his right ear isn't small considering the fact that he was being shot at from multiple angles and by multiple officers at the same time. The fact that he has a bullet wound on the right side of his head is not proof that he killed himself when you consider the situation on the ground. Sure, it is still possible that he did, but at the end of the day, it is not impossible that it was a coincidence that one of the hundreds of bullets that were being shot found its way to his right ear.
Get over it man. He killed himself. He knew his phone was tapped. He also only had one bodyguard with him. Get over it & accept the fact that he killed himself
Pablo Escobar’s right side was facing a brick Wall when he ran out on the rooftop, and the police only had a Line of fire on his left side and from behind, so how Can they hit him in his right Ear no less, with a horizontal entrance wound and the officers where Down on the Ground. Simple bullet ballistics Will tell the story that he killed himself.

Had to stop the video 3/4ths of the way to write this comment. Glad I found your channel, this shit is interesting asf! You make it very suspenseful and entertaining.
I have tons of family that was in Colombia at that time including my mother. I hear them tell stories about how Pablo made Colombia better, never liked his actions but he genuinely cared about his people and that’s something all Colombians respect. Remember, Colombia isn’t anything like the United States on terms of a good economy, good housing, jobs ect ect. Pablo single handedly changed so many lives, for the better and for the worse, but to this day the Colombian people love him and what he did for the Country.
You know, I used to find this sort of stuff fascinating. Now I would be glad if none of it existed and life was more boring. I grew up in a rough NJ neighborhood and later spent 8-years in the Army with 3-deployments (2-Iraq, 1-Afghan). Now all I want to do is live a quiet life and be with and take care of my loved ones.
He didn't make an error, he was talking to his son on a phone he knew they were tracking him whenever he made phone calls, his son said that in multiple interviews. He let himself get caught
Death by cop. He reportedly was obsessed with expanding and taking care of his family at any cost. He was probably in a severe depression and a strong candidate for a midlife crisis.
Truly this men has wasted his life so much. Imagine you live for 44 years, and all you made is chaos, murder, destruction, etc. His live is not worth living. Thank God he lives only for 44 years, otherwise there will be much blood that spilled.
His son went to my school and gave a conference about his life and having a drug lord as a father, it was really interesting getting to know the other side of the story
I heard that when pablo got cornered in the shootout that it was actually a US sniper that took that final shot, probably one of the US agents providing the oversight for that op, even though the US trained and supplied Colombian search teams took pride in claiming the “final blow”
I can’t imagine being a drug lord since having to run away from the cops and having a lot of bodyguards and always having to keep a look out truly scary knowing that any second you could get shot
He didn’t care if he died at that point but he didn’t kill himself. He was depressed af so he just wanted to talk to his family. Purely, he just did not give a shit. He was done with his life.
@@Beamers So insted of killing himself he let someone else kill him for him? I would never take that chance if I was in that situation. You don't know if they torture you first, and doing all kind of shjit. Do it yourself and you know you wont suffer. But what do I know, I've never been in that kind of situation.
@@Beamers but the wound that was the fatal one. Was at the EXACT same spot where he told everyone he would shoot himself. Rather a grave in Colombia then a prison in the US right ?
Coke has tendency to make one's feel that way. Add wealth, contact and a history of _"getting away with a lot of shady shit nobody should"_ and you got one hell of a mental cocktail.
So, first off, Los Pepe wasn't some "rag tag group of civilians", family. They were spearheaded by far-right, US backed (armed, trained, and funded) paramilitary forces. They were basically another army that worked closely with US agents and Escobar's rival cartels. The civilian involvement was more a PR move where they took the real anger of civilians and hid behind it to commit atrocities. The TV show Narcos, and others, BADLY overplayed how much of the cartel, his money, his men, etc, were gone at the end. He was still very rich and powerful when he died. The cartel was massive and while they did put a dent in it, it was far from done. Most went on to continue doing the same thing other another name. What had been compromised beyond repair was his reputation and relationships within the government, police, and military, and without that it was difficult to operate. If he'd had kept a low profile he may still be alive and free today. But his name being known by people in DC was a death sentence. There's also good reason to believe that he gave up his location and told his family things they already knew, making constant phone calls to his son who he previously told "the phone is death" to take the heat off them and kill himself. He was shot in the exact place he taught others to kill themselves to avoid capture. He had been shot in the back and at that point probably knew there was no escape and rather than be captured, humiliated, brutalized and tortured he very well may have shot himself. Many people believe this to be the case, even those very close to the situation on both sides including law enforcement. He swears to never surrender, never be caught, that phones are insafe, and says he'll off himself very specifically, and the day after his birthday he makes a bunch of calls he knows are dangerous to tell his son things he already knows and winds up dead taking the heat off of everyone and everything he knows and cares about. I can't say with certainty either way, but I lean towards him ending his own life once escape proves impossible and the authorities wanted the win for themselves so they fabricated the other story OR a single LEO said they killed him after finding him dead.
There’s actually a documentary talking about this and forensic evidence shows the suicide theory to not be true because if the gun was held to his head gun powder would be all over his face and this was not the case
@@stevemill8959 the truth is that los Pepes were receiving bootleg copies of DEA reports that were passed to them by the Colombian government with the US government looking the other way. The were not funded by the US government, they were funded by the Cali cartel. This groups were initially put together by wealthy farmers from land at the countryside near Medellín. They were legally formed (I even remember an Archbishop having mass and blessing them during the ceremony of creation of the group). They were created to protect those guys from the lefty supported guerrillas. The guys in charge hate the lefties, because they kidnapped their sister. They were also trained by a Israeli mercenary named Yair Klein. After a while, these paramilitary groups became mercenaries offering their services to the party with the best offer ($). Sometimes they were "working" for military intelligence.
@@CarlosVargas-dv6ph what's missing in that almost complete picture is that these paramilitaries did far more than merely "protecting" wealthy landowners and associating themselves with drug cartels. From the 1970s to the 2000s, with government backing and US logistical support and training, they went on a rampage murdering labor union leaders, human rights activists, students, journalists, left-wing politicians, and basically any person deemed a "subversive" who threatens established privileges and the prevailing social order, while slaughtering tens of thousands of poor peasants and villagers in the process.
yes he is a murderer but dont forget all the god things that he did to the Medellín comunity so apart of the bad things that he did he also made good things and all thease commend is writing by a Colombian man that was born in that time and live since his born in Medellín so i know pretty well what i am talking about
@@Mister_coca-xv6go you probably earn more from drugs than your brother's honor, seriously, someone kills your brother and you defend him, you must be taking your own drugs.
I feel he did get killed but the family says he committed suicide to make it appear like he was always in control. They obviously don’t want the “biggest” drug lord to have a legacy of foolishness.
Imagine being one of the biggest drug lords and having government officials in your pocket and still being shot down like this, This game does not end well for people and imagine being at the bottom of the food chain thinking you can’t be touched smh….
He was doing well until he allied with the communists. The US doesnt really give too many fucks about the cartel - hell the US supported RIGHT WING cartels in other south american countries as long as they destabilized and opposed leftist governments. Mind you this during the wider context of the cold war. All the major cartels today, especially the ones in Mexico the United States has a large hand in creating. Pablo's mistake was allying with the wrong people. Otherwise - He could've kept going
It depends how you run your operation. If you stay in the shadows and keep playing smart, it’s definitely possible to be ok. The government can only look away for so long, when everything is in the public eye
The more likely scenario is that Pablo fled through the rooftop hoping to escape but he was wounded and knowing he was going to be captured or killed, he did indeed turn the gun on himself and short himself in the right ear.
Such men are complex..They help and kill ruthlessly in the same life..Kills to keep up their power position and by helping they feel the power magnified I guess..

The first 2 seasons of Narcos were the best.
Rest was boring
I couldn't watch after the two seasons so true!
I agree. The 3rd is slow pain to the audience
Indeed
We feel the same
theres no way he lived half his life running from the law and yet he forgot that calling his family on the landline would trace him. He did it on purpose because he was running out of options. he knew he was at the end of the road and had to stop running. In fact that phone call was to his family to say goodbye. pretty obvious it was a suicide.
i can't even think of how much time and work you put in your videos
Work sucks. Unless it's something you like... then it's usually fun.
Unless you have to do it... then it becomes work. But it's still not as bad as real work. Which sucks.
i have heard of this final showdown, but it varied in some detail. the other version corroborates that his wounds on the rooftop were incapacitating, but not life threatening. the task force knew if he recovered in custody, he would formulate another escape. so they gave him a kill shot in the ear. if he wanted to commit 'suicide by cop," why did he run instead of shooting it out in the room?
Maybe he thought he would be able to escape again
He thought he could escape, when he was incapacitated he knew he wouldn't and killed himself, it's possible but we'll never know for sure.
Not saying that it happened that way but I would argue there is a diffrence between being in a house that is surrounded by police (he was used to those situations, left his own prison while the army was storming it) and being injured by gunshots on a rooftop with no escape route and no bodyguards. He probably tried his best to get away and when he had the chance to atleast take his own life he went for that option.
Also I don't think that him escaping custody would be realistic because they would have extradited him to the US immediately..
I am saying this because that's exactly what they did to the Cali guys a few years after.
they prob killed him because he was a terrorist
thank you everyone for your thoughtful replies. there are 2 versions of Pablo Escobar's death depending on the 2 visions of Pablo Escobar. Escobar is a romantic hero to some. His suicide as his last act seems an honorable way to go, depriving the cops of the last word. the other side sees him as a vicious criminal that eluded and bribed authorities for years while kingpinning a huge lethal drug cartel. this group wanted him dead, thus the kill shot in the ear. it would be easy to prove one story while debunking the other by an autopsy. the distance from the head of the muzzle, muzzle burns and powder stains, the caliber of the bullet and the angle of entry would be conclusive proof one way or the other. Lacking this evidence, the legend of Pablo Escobar continues.
He didn't plan on spending his life in prison and he did it to save his family
Shooting down a plane? Dont think so
People seem to forget that he was a pedo
No, he did it for himself
@@jhonklan3794 Breaking Bad reference?
@@jhonklan3794 He liked it. He was good at it
Pablo is a true gangster. He said he would never be taken alive, and he held true to his word. Unlike EVERY OTHER supposed gangster who said the same thing, but when it came down to it, they surrendered.
You sound like he was your hero 🌝
He's nothing but compost now
Gangster who killed innocents child and people who had nothing to do with violence. God knows how many innocent men he had killed who were probably on their first day of duty and wanted to make their nation proud. Still ppl act as if he was a personality to see. He was a rat. A bad animal who didn't deserve to be human. He killed many. And still u write as if he was a sigma. I dont know whats happening to the society.
@@sahilverma4801whoa, calm down. Y you taking it personal. Some people grew up different. I'M OBVIOUSLY BOUT THAT LIFE. Not everyone grows up with a mom and dad, or has structure in there lives to take the right path in life.

@@istayrite at least do it in a classy way like Putin not this low class person
To be honest here, the chance that a bullet would find its way to his right ear isn't small considering the fact that he was being shot at from multiple angles and by multiple officers at the same time. The fact that he has a bullet wound on the right side of his head is not proof that he killed himself when you consider the situation on the ground. Sure, it is still possible that he did, but at the end of the day, it is not impossible that it was a coincidence that one of the hundreds of bullets that were being shot found its way to his right ear.
Get over it man. He killed himself. He knew his phone was tapped. He also only had one bodyguard with him. Get over it & accept the fact that he killed himself
@@kingpin69 so what if he killed himself or got killed. either way he’s still dead
@@wavyalan4197 it is only for :- he dead by his own terms not others.
Pablo Escobar’s right side was facing a brick Wall when he ran out on the rooftop, and the police only had a Line of fire on his left side and from behind, so how Can they hit him in his right Ear no less, with a horizontal entrance wound and the officers where Down on the Ground. Simple bullet ballistics Will tell the story that he killed himself.

He didn't live and die to get others addicted to some coke, no he fought the wars and pioneered to his last breath.
Really, you have made a meaningless comparison. You equating him with some petty human who harmed others knowingly for his benefit is just not right. King of Macedon, Alexander the Great was a freaking King, not some drug lord. Get your facts correct and try to appreciate the historic personas who shaped our civilization.

He wasn’t thinking. He was tired.
Hello Schawnetta how are you doing today?....he was indeed more than tired
Who cares how he died. The guy was ruthless and took thousands along for the ride.
He showed us just what a human is but with deep desire and fear and cash and lead and kill etc.
I have tons of family that was in Colombia at that time including my mother. I hear them tell stories about how Pablo made Colombia better, never liked his actions but he genuinely cared about his people and that’s something all Colombians respect. Remember, Colombia isn’t anything like the United States on terms of a good economy, good housing, jobs ect ect. Pablo single handedly changed so many lives, for the better and for the worse, but to this day the Colombian people love him and what he did for the Country.
@@AquafalconHD i respect Pablo but he should have planned his ways with better understanding
Colombian people Knowing The value of pablo Escobar. What he did for his people's.
But you still watched the utube video 🤣🤣
I never understand why the US government is so interested in other country's affairs...
Its because Pablo's Market is the united states.
Because Pablo is the competitor of US gov't in coke cartel.
And they're are so much going on in their own .
There was at the moment a “war against drugs” (read foreign drugs) so they wanted him gone because he was winning.
Money is there to be made and gain control. But like you said,most never understand that. Hopefully it changes soon.
You know, I used to find this sort of stuff fascinating. Now I would be glad if none of it existed and life was more boring. I grew up in a rough NJ neighborhood and later spent 8-years in the Army with 3-deployments (2-Iraq, 1-Afghan). Now all I want to do is live a quiet life and be with and take care of my loved ones.
He didn't make an error, he was talking to his son on a phone he knew they were tracking him whenever he made phone calls, his son said that in multiple interviews. He let himself get caught
Death by cop. He reportedly was obsessed with expanding and taking care of his family at any cost. He was probably in a severe depression and a strong candidate for a midlife crisis.

His son went to my school and gave a conference about his life and having a drug lord as a father, it was really interesting getting to know the other side of the story
I heard that when pablo got cornered in the shootout that it was actually a US sniper that took that final shot, probably one of the US agents providing the oversight for that op, even though the US trained and supplied Colombian search teams took pride in claiming the “final blow”

I believe he killed himself. Why call his family when he knew they would find him that? He gave up, and took his life
He didn’t care if he died at that point but he didn’t kill himself. He was depressed af so he just wanted to talk to his family. Purely, he just did not give a shit. He was done with his life.
@@Beamers So insted of killing himself he let someone else kill him for him? I would never take that chance if I was in that situation.

I tend to believe he committed suicide, because why would he make a phone call yet he knew any phone call to his family was being tapped?
So, first off, Los Pepe wasn't some "rag tag group of civilians", family. They were spearheaded by far-right, US backed (armed, trained, and funded) paramilitary forces. They were basically another army that worked closely with US agents and Escobar's rival cartels. The civilian involvement was more a PR move where they took the real anger of civilians and hid behind it to commit atrocities.
The TV show Narcos, and others, BADLY overplayed how much of the cartel, his money, his men, etc, were gone at the end. He was still very rich and powerful when he died. The cartel was massive and while they did put a dent in it, it was far from done. Most went on to continue doing the same thing other another name. What had been compromised beyond repair was his reputation and relationships within the government, police, and military, and without that it was difficult to operate. If he'd had kept a low profile he may still be alive and free today. But his name being known by people in DC was a death sentence.
There's also good reason to believe that he gave up his location and told his family things they already knew, making constant phone calls to his son who he previously told "the phone is death" to take the heat off them and kill himself. He was shot in the exact place he taught others to kill themselves to avoid capture. He had been shot in the back and at that point probably knew there was no escape and rather than be captured, humiliated, brutalized and tortured he very well may have shot himself. Many people believe this to be the case, even those very close to the situation on both sides including law enforcement. He swears to never surrender, never be caught, that phones are insafe, and says he'll off himself very specifically, and the day after his birthday he makes a bunch of calls he knows are dangerous to tell his son things he already knows and winds up dead taking the heat off of everyone and everything he knows and cares about. I can't say with certainty either way, but I lean towards him ending his own life once escape proves impossible and the authorities wanted the win for themselves so they fabricated the other story OR a single LEO said they killed him after finding him dead.
This makes sense. They definitely preferred taking him alive. Extraditing Chapo was huge for the U.S.
There’s actually a documentary talking about this and forensic evidence shows the suicide theory to not be true because if the gun was held to his head gun powder would be all over his face and this was not the case
Wow I didn’t know los Pepe’s worked with us agents.
@@stevemill8959 the truth is that los Pepes were receiving bootleg copies of DEA reports that were passed to them by the Colombian government with the US government looking the other way. The were not funded by the US government, they were funded by the Cali cartel. This groups were initially put together by wealthy farmers from land at the countryside near Medellín. They were legally formed (I even remember an Archbishop having mass and blessing them during the ceremony of creation of the group). They were created to protect those guys from the lefty supported guerrillas. The guys in charge hate the lefties, because they kidnapped their sister. They were also trained by a Israeli mercenary named Yair Klein. After a while, these paramilitary groups became mercenaries offering their services to the party with the best offer ($). Sometimes they were "working" for military intelligence.
@@CarlosVargas-dv6ph what's missing in that almost complete picture is that these paramilitaries did far more than merely "protecting" wealthy landowners and associating themselves with drug cartels. From the 1970s to the 2000s, with government backing and US logistical support and training, they went on a rampage murdering labor union leaders, human rights activists, students, journalists, left-wing politicians, and basically any person deemed a "subversive" who threatens established privileges and the prevailing social order, while slaughtering tens of thousands of poor peasants and villagers in the process.
I don't think it was an error, he knew it was over so he called his son and knew they would find him
Yea he did a lot of shit but his mindset was totally different than most 💯 most people couldn't run an empire like this

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
He was doing well until he allied with the communists. The US doesnt really give too many fucks about the cartel - hell the US supported RIGHT WING cartels in other south american countries as long as they destabilized and opposed leftist governments. Mind you this during the wider context of the cold war. All the major cartels today, especially the ones in Mexico the United States has a large hand in creating. Pablo's mistake was allying with the wrong people. Otherwise - He could've kept going
It depends how you run your operation.
If you stay in the shadows and keep playing smart, it’s definitely possible to be ok.
The government can only look away for so long, when everything is in the public eye
Apt
choose to live and choose to die, what a free man
Bro really just told us the story of Narcos and thought we wouldn’t grab it
The more likely scenario is that Pablo fled through the rooftop hoping to escape but he was wounded and knowing he was going to be captured or killed, he did indeed turn the gun on himself and short himself in the right ear.
Pablo sacrificed himself to protect his family by giving himself. He shot himself in the right ear, that shot wasn't from the search block
Such men are complex..They help and kill ruthlessly in the same life..Kills to keep up their power position and by helping they feel the power magnified I guess..
From a middle class man to the most powerful and wealthy drug lord to ever exist
he wasnt middle class, he was incredibly poor growing up
