Not condoning the crimes that he committed, but this kid is an absolute legend. The fact that he came from nothing and had the ability to think freely enough to chase such a wild dream and evade so many law enforcement agencies without hurting anyone and teach himself how to fly planes is just down right impressive. gotta respect his skills.
Absolutely !
If I ever get reincarnated, I'm going Colton
Yea
I agree with you
Wid no shoes too :)
hands down best documentary I have ever seen
U need to get out more
@@kells77 if he went out more then how would he watch awesome documentaries?!
@@kells77 watch the casino one
Oh man you need to see a few more documentaries then. This one is really good but never the best. I imagine you’re born after 1990 tho.
Ur mom
They said the whole world heard about this guy. Not me, I’m just now discovering who this dude is.
Think I remember him
Me too
Same, never heard of him
Yep same here and I've been into these stories for years!
Same and i live leas than 30 miles from this lmao
EL Chapo ain't got nothing on this kid he's the smoothest fugitive to ever walk this earth.
To be fair el Chapo's done way more damage lol
i think the most badass part is how he used the rights to this story to pay back everything that he stole. no violence and epic AF .
@Dave Micolichek this is your life, and its ending one minute at a time.
He shot at a deputy's vehicle.
@Dave Micolichek I agree, he shouldn't have done what he did. He should have went down a better route. But how he played his cards life game him, mad respect for that.

I know what you mean! Lol
I think it’s cool that he did all this without physically hurting anyone, I think he was just living freely which is kinda empowering in some way.
Living freely you said?
Did what he had to do. Been there my whole life
I admire his courage in a way. Gutsy dude. And clearly smart. He's one of those guys for whom there is no middle ground, self-made millionaire or...jail. Hopefully when he gets out he can work on that million.
thats why it took more than 2 years to catch him .........u had what wifi lady said
I liked your comment.. And i know exactly what you're sayin...
That mother made me teary eyed. " that's my son, if hes hungry im gonna feed him, regardless if hes on the run"
Your a good mother. A Forgiving mother
A good mother?😂😂😂 she's the reason he got into this whole situation to begin with.
Well we dont know the whole story now do we? All we know is the mother fed her kid
No matter the laws that were broken. She put whatever differences aside against her son. That she had .
And fed him didnt sell her son out an set him up all im saying. Most mothers would have called the authorities..
No, she was a terrible mother! You gotta look into this story more. She's the reason he was always hungry and stole food from the neighbors.
LOUSY Mother ... as parents we are not to just provide for our kids we are to teach them ... she FAILED MISERABLY!!!
You haven't a clue what a good mother is, do society a favor and never have kids.
This kid ain't no ordinary kid.. he is intelligent, tactical and skilful.
CIA should hire him
Cant deny that. Armed forces would have done him good
Alvin he belongs in the army

By far, yours is the best comment on this video. Thumbs up to you. You made my day.
LOL... 🤣
The fact he stole his dog back is the best thing ever
You damn right. The mom was right what's the dog going to do take stand and say ("Yes he did this and that also this plus he did that too!")
I think you should ask the dog. Not a great life.
Hell yeah. You don’t take a man’s dog.
Ok great thank him for everything that we have had for everything and everything is that great and very much appreciated and you have had to do this for a few years so we are really tired 😴 and the park is so much easier than the mail and the money is so bad and that we are really hurting for the last time and that is the way we can make this a big deal for the park so we have to go buy a new one for the park and then we can park in the park and park in the back of the car and we have had the same thing on our own truck 🛻 the car 🚙 the truck 🛻 the cars 🚘 cars 🚘
Don't get me started hahaha 😆
7 years in prison, gets to study what he wants, viral legend, that's a pretty great start imo
i cannot quote this proper, but, give a man 1000 days in solitary confinement he will lose his mind, Give a monk the same and he will thank you. Monks are not gods, or mythical beings. they simply have figured out how to channel whatever energy comes fourth into benefit/lessons/progression, and love. I Love you Au5 and your belief or higher power loves you. Even if you believe in science or nothing ,science loves you for believing in it. nothing respects your form of nothing and nothingness. idfk lol but you get my point.!! live your life, and never let the outcome of something stop you from acheving your goals/dreams!!!!! This may be a mess due to some brews during covid times in central cali but my point which i think you get, is KEEP GOING also i just clicked your youtube page and man thats some good dub. mt eden vibes with some new age synths from fl or maybe ableton massive or sylenth.
Gang gang love love
you know what's sad ? i've seen 13 years for bag of weed
@Dave Micolichek no just different country ... on the other hand i've seen guy that crashed and killed 4 ppl got 4 years the justice system is weird
@@doposud breaking in will give you a few months if you keep doing that it'll accumulate and might be 7-20 years in prison
It's rare for a documentary to have animation..it was a good fit for this type of story
Oh man, what an amazing story.. Glad he never hurt anyone.
Or got hurt...
This was the ground how serios he must be taken under Arrest, only for his safety ! . some People would kill him for Steel a Million Dollar plane &more! , but, man,he have Skills, Amazing jung man!
He was in a halfway house so he would have been out soon so it was kinda dumb for him to go on the run but still cool
tinky007 he didn’t care about the time he wanted to be the best criminal in the world he was also a adrenaline junkie he did it for the rush not the money.
What makes you believe he didn't hurt anyone?
Absolutely legendary.
The kid managed to do all that without hurting anyone.
I hope the future is kind to him.
At first I wasn't going to watch it when I realized it was cartoonized but then it actually turned out to be good!
It took me three days to watch the whole show
Why the hell was he in first gear on the highway?
You’re lame
"If he's flying planes, I'm proud, he would've had to teach himself", Happy Mothers Day Pam, you raised a "by any means", thrive and survivor.
@flaming roch Resistance to tyranny is obediance to God.
You know what's amazing is that this guy trained himself to be a pilot.
Trained himself to make crash landings too! I don't think he ever took off with the same plane after landing lol.
Qqqqqqq++,
Taught himself to fly,
Just not land

"most of us want him dead" the old man says. I think not. But love him or hate him, you can't criticize him for stealing his dog back. That was a move that got me behind him! Ain't nobody gonna turn the tables on the lad.
Btw, fantastic channel.
I think even the crowd didn't agree with him, I don't hear any cheers on that statement, the crowd even said no weren't they ?
Bitter old man.
Crime isn't cool... But damn. Mad respect for his skills. lol
I say the same thing..

@@ryanmeyer6281 Yeeeeeeah light that green magic up!!!
I love this kid (actually he’s now 29) and I’m so happy for him that he got out of prison and now is building his new life💗
Yeah, I know what you mean but people like this kid have no right to live in society and will probably always have it in them to behave criminal. It's not a far stretch for someone like him to murder and the things he did do are bad enough. No one is perfect but c'mon we can't constantly make excuses.
@@Hundert1 I guess you are not a believer that people can change.
@@Hundert1 he has no right to live in society? He paid his debt to society and should no longer be judged for the malfeasance. The only criminal that should be judged for life is a pedophile.
It's in us all to behave this way, we just either have no desire , choose not to or just can't. It's not just in him it's actually in 100% of us. We are all capable of doing what he did. He is the one of a very minority that act on these feelings
@@Hundert1 you are awful, people change and you are wayyy to close minded.
He crash-landed planes and survived.
Survived on a run and learned to fly an airplane by manuals and books.
His love for animals.
He wanted cops to chase him and he wanted to live life dangerously.
He stole money but he never brought anything. He did not even look back to take the money and run.
He sold his life story to 20th-century fox for 1.4 million to pay restitution to his victims.
He did not hurt anyone physically.
He got to study aeronautical engineer after a harder dangerous journey.
His skills in stealing to survive, learning on his own to fly a plane risking his life.
Barefoot survivor
He took the wrong way, But he took the hardest way to achieve his goals with the whole world behind him to kill him and capture him for so long.
We might have hardships in our life But no one can even touch his level 1v1000.
*Over Lvl 9000
He is a survivor and the only reason he survived for this long is because he was never thinking about girls
What a life
He been living the life for sure!
I will try not to exaggerate but he is somewhat a prophet :D
This kids my hero. He could easily have grown up to be a real James bond. One in a billion
until he rips YOU off
Sure, but the issue of "growing up" is the decreasing "medial/moral protection of kids" when constantly running into ambushes and facing guns.
I love the part where her mom was told that his dog would not be released because she was evidence. Mom asks, how can a dog be evidence? She is not gonna stand and talk
Mother was an abusive, drug addict
@@willnill7946 mama was a person. we all have flaws. I thought she came off as loyal to her family.
@@digitalsalsas The mother was a selfish junkie with freedom from law raising a thug
@@Gary109 blaming mama is BETA. so silly to cast stones in a glass house / judgment is just as wrong as being a junkie
@@digitalsalsas you're a junkie arent you?
The craziest part of all of this? He survived 3 damn plane crashes. Lucky kid.
not just luck, he survived because of his flying skills. Not good enough for him to fly properly, but good enough for him to survive the crashes.
crashlandings
They were 'controlled crashes' in the wilderness, since he would not want to land in airports - straight into the authorities.
He's like me in GTA. Great at taking off. Terrible at landing. Lol
@Derek Wilson When your old enough you will still consider his age a kid. Despite what the law says. Don't take everything so literal.
This kid took GTA to a whole another level
But in GTA u kill people, but this guy didn't.
That's for damn sure..
Peter Gillies you choose what to do when playing online at least
Lool I need a manual on this how do I become like him
He is not about GTA. I think he is about Lupin III. No violence involve except for stealing.
Every pilot remembers his first solo. It takes a lot of courage to launch by yourself AFTER many lessons. This kid was incredibly brave.
Or just fearless because like most kids he thought he was invincible
He is a survivor and the only reason he survived for this long is because he was never thinking about girls
Then why did he order porn? 😂
@@comedicsketches Damn, I thought he was gay like half way through, like why wasn't he pulling a Bonnie and Clyde? 😂
True, but marriage can be death, albeit slower.
@Nun Yabiz well he didn't have a dad around so it might even be obvious
@@madwax4771 True
I'm sure he could be the first one to break into area 51 without anyone knowing!
Facts
And him being barefoot, we would be told that it was an alien who came from planet X to rescue his family of Xmen.
Straight out he probably would be the only to have been in and back out of Area 51
#free Colton
They should make a movie about this kid he's a genius in all honesty I tip my hat to them America
He was a genius at escaping! I'm very happy he went on to study bigger and better things.
This kid could easily become one of the greatest minds of our time if he could be rehabilitated and made part of society. What a freaking wizard. Wish I had an opportunity to mentor him
he would wind up mentoring you
Lol
@@jboner11 😂😂😂😂😂😂
He needs a male mentor, not a female one.
My mom always used to say there were cookies missing when she got him. Maybe it was Colton.
Imagine the feeling, the rush that kid felt when that plane took off. Felt entire time I was watching a movie
What a guy, breaks his dog out of jail... There are a lot of dog owners out there that wouldn't even look for their dog if they got loose.
A dog deserves the loyalty they give too us returned from us
That was my favorite part, him getting his dog!!
fax
That’s a very judgemental comment! I know many people with dogs and there’s no way that they would ever leave them lost. It called training! Obviously you know or live in a terrible area with people who are ignorant
Id break my dog out of doggie jail in a heartbeat. Honestly the guy doesn't seem like an innately terrible person just a misguided kid i hope his time in prison helps
Even when Colton broke into houses, he did not even bother to steal footwear. NIKE plans to negotiate a new sneaker brand called 'Coltons". With this TH-cam documentary, those shoes should be a big seller.
I wonder how much farther I’d be in life if I had this kid’s energy 😅
I was thinking the same thing
Or your employer hadn’t used you…
i was glad he only got 7 years man what a run good video
So glad this was in my recommended.
Now this kid could survive a zombie apocalypse.

I remember when this happened. He broke into my father in laws grocery store on Orcas Island and tried to break open an ATM. He ended up cutting himself really bad and bled everywhere. He tried to clean it up by using bleach from the shelf. After all that he stole my brother in laws boat and ditched it in Vancouver. Crazy stuff!

First time I really enjoyed animation in a documentary, really well done ,its a fantastic dynamic animation
I agree, very creative!
Same thoughts here too
i know.this kid is something else.!!
Who else is addicted to these after watching one?
"Lived in a one mile radius from his mom but the police couldnt catch him" 😂
How come His mom Did not know He was a mile away.
Johnathan Goodwin.... Did you not watch the video??? She did know and would occasionally cook him breakfast
He had a run and lived a life that very few people will ever even dream. He is a legend.
Thats exactly what i was thinking
Let's be honest this kid is a damn genius who grew up on the wrong side of the tracks. I respect him, he never hurt anyone. I think that he actually did what a lot of us trapped in the system wish we could do. He lived free.
Um, theft hurts people....imagine some kid crashing your car, then someone else going "at least he never hurt anyone" 🤦♀️
Sitcom Christian ahhh little pufy snowflake
He was mature enough to pay restitution to those he hurt. This kid will do great things with his life if he is given the opportunity. From Bad to good, a good story. A good ending. Thanks for sharing this.
This boy is a genious coz he can fly an airplane just by studying the manuals and how airplanes fly and land.
That's literally how you become a pilot. You have to study the procedures...
A monkey can fly a plane.
Let’s slow down with genius level
You don't need to be a genius just be able to read and apply it
@ but considering the intricacies with piloting, it's impressive that he was able to remember that much and in his first attempt, manage to actually fly the thing. When you first try something, most times, you dont suceed that well
That was so cool he came to the Bahamas stole a plane, ate our famous conch salad, drank our national beer( a kalik) he had the time of his life 🤣😂
@Dave Micolichek everything.
@Dave Micolichek he sold his story for 1.4 million to cover his restitution. He didnt want more because he didnt think it would be right to profit from his wrong doing. At the age he was when this went down it's amazing he was able to achieve as much as he did. And to come out of it with the level of integrity he has is also amazing.
Your choice to not look at the entire picture is moronic of you.
@V P I never mentioned morality, intelligence, or my theory as to why this story was picked up. I'm not understanding where you're coming from.
@P Metz what are you basing your statement on? Clearly not knowledge. I could purchase a small Cessna for $100,000. It's not like the kid was stealing multi million dollar private jets. I wouldn't have made my statement without knowing what I was talking about. I will leave that up to knuckleheads like yourself. You could look into it and come back to say Oh I guess you're right but you wont. So I guess stay stupid, stupid.
@P Metz I posted a link for you.
Legend, shows his charactor as he didet hurt anyone, and when that old lady offered him food and he said he had no money, that shows the kind of heart he has, a crimal would proberly kill the old lady and take everything, his skill set is unreal, needs to be trained by the navy and used properly to protect his contry. mad respect.
a criminal does not have to kill another human being to be considered a crook.
Stealing from others is enough.
He should have put his energy into something positive and worked for it.
@@ttoradell3520 law enforcement shouldn't have spent so much time and money hunting a teenager who was non violent. People were ready to kill this kid when he had no violent tendencies. He did wrong for sure but law enforcement went about this entirely wrong and that's why they ended up looking bad.
@@TheFrogInYourClosetWatchingYou he was arrested and lived to pay for his crimes.
How is that wrong numbskull ?

nah not protect the country..usa doesnt deserve to be protected
um.. but the navy will teach him how to kill....what do you think the army does.... kill
This is one of those times when you find yourself rooting for the "bad guy".
This kid is a legend for stealing his own dog back from the tyrants!
I guarantee if he was black there would be extreme hate comments but because he's white he gets sympathy

Because I'm so familiar his story I just think about all the time that went by that a hour and 20 minute documentary can't even begin to put into detail. He had to have spent months just living in the woods and even with his isolated childhood he still high a very good understanding of technology and the internet. If he had put any effort at all into staying off their radar he would probably still be free. He got bored and needed the thrill of the chase and the feeling of invincibility again and he essentially got himself caught. Probably the most outrageous part of the whole thing.
@@jrstuckey1471 Still has nothing on this Kid. And I'll tell you why. T
They actually didn't really catch him ,he gave himself up
This is a really well made documentary, thoroughly enjoyed it.
He never hurt anyone lmao this kid is a Legend
he was stealing stuff..... well what about he steal your car?
I'm sure the people who owned those planes, and boats would think different.

@@shaunsafety4175 Evade police with it like he did and I would give you my Audi you groupthink ameoba.
@@shaunsafety4175 LMAO
Netflix need s to make a movie on this...... damn
Well at the end it says he gave the rights to Fox on his life story for 1.4 million, which went to victims of his crimes. Netflix would have to buy the rights from Fox.
Speaking of that, I'm gonna have to see if they actually did something with those rights or just sat on it.
I'd rather watch anime
Extremly fake, story telling. You actually believe this kid could out run every police officers car barefoot? Jump fences, run in the woods all barefoot without ever hurting himself? Break into residents, fly a plane, crash it and live perfectly normal, then fly another one and never crash them again? Do you think his dog was just running with him the entire time?
@@BruceWaynesFactory
Yes very true, and I believe you. But what's his reality that you believe in?
@@watan9794 considering his mom even mentioned “people are making up stories of my kid, I know he was staying with friends, not in the woods” then they probably started to think it’s best to run with the idea the media is going to get movies and money out of it.
God Bless Colton. He did not hurt anyone. An amazing kid
The barefoot bandit...crazy like a fox and cooler than Cool Whip placed on top of your favorite pie. Gotta love him.
clearly his mom knows who she raised and she's darn proud of it,all mothers should be that confident in their children
Ya I agree, all moms should encourage their kids to steal
@@samplautz5586 Sarcasm
A brilliant documentary, cleverly made. The dude is a G
If he was black you’d say otherwise
@@willnill7946 If he was black he would be an OG.
They took his dog as "evidence", actually BAIT!!! And kudos for "stealing" your dog back!!! That was a good one 🤑🤑🤑
Honestly one of the best shows I've seen on TH-cam. Thanks.
I love whoever the producer used for the soundtrack, the music is fabulous.
Wonder who did the guitar work @25:somethin
It might be the canadian musicians music. Who knows
May God bless this kid and pray that he finds peace and can sit still one day.
why am i even crying when he got caught? all those years of being alone running at his young age. this should be a movie.😭💔
yeah i would love to see shia labeouf play this kid in a movie
Hell of a story for the grand kids ....😁👏
He needs to settle down and find a wife first
He got caught because he was bored and out of his element 😂
Nah. I think he just wanted some more adrenaline. Maybe he also had mixed feelings about whether he truly wanted to turn himself in but as soon as police came, it probably became instinctual to run and play cat and mouse one last time
He probably got caught because he ran out of places to go. I used to work with a few people who were bounty hunters and a lot of the people they caught they said they caught because the person just got tired of running and looking over their shoulder all the time.
No, he got caught because you can't run forever. Especially not when your continuously commiting crimes and attracting attention lol. Eventually the law will catch up to you if you keep pushing your luck like he did.
@@tempo1889 YES exactlyyy
Awesome story. You could tell he was getting bored by making it easier for them to catch him. Happy to hear he is out of prison and doing well for himself. Imagine a campfire story???
I'm so proud of that kid, a free person, a good person
