What an amazing story. Thank you for this!

This guy doesn't state intricate details but keeps you hooked.

Transporting is a drug in & of itself. Driving home from Colorado to Wisconsin with 100lbs of herb in a Thule rack on the roof & I blow through a stop sign literally right in front of a sheriff. Got home safe somehow after being pseudo-honest (yes I shouldn't be driving I'm exhausted, it was 4am, & the worst was I had just crossed a border), luckily I was sober. Anyway when I got home all my close friends were waiting & started partying & I just sat there stone sober feeling something I've never felt b4. Relief, terror at how close I'd come to ruining my life as I was on scholarships & close to graduating & getting in legal trouble would have lost me all of that, but I was also feeling something else, a kind of buzz no drug has ever given me & I wanted more as the days & weeks past. I started fiending for another run, bigger. As a person who doesn't gamble I should have been happy I was safe but there was this new itch that I scratched for a while until I finally kicked that habit & became an ordinary low rent drug addict. Peace y'all

When telling a story understatement is far more effective than exaggeration. It's usually the main difference between a bullshitter and a raconteur

I'm looking forward to watching David in the Banged Up series after seeing him & hearing his story in this video. What a fascinating & very resourceful chap!

I have seen several of his interviews but this was the best. I would put it down to the quality of the interviewer, who had the perfect balance of intelligent questions and knowing when to be quiet. (quite rare that). Well done.

RIP the ladies lost in the prison fire.

Excellent interviewer.

Some years ago, while assisting my local MP with his constituency correspondence, I worked on David's case which was a request for help to get his passport reinstated. It had been withdrawn for some years as part of a legal judgement and, although the sentence had been completed, the passport service was refusing to issue a new one. His backstory was fascinating so I immediately ordered his book and determined to do what I could to fix the situation because, as far as I was concerned, he had done his time and a deal is a deal so he was within his rights to travel again. I hope that my efforts were successful.

Fascinating.

brilliant

the way David laughs..... i think i like it.... :)

Intelligent and well spoken criminals like David always make me wonder what they could have become if they took a different path in science or media or even politics

That one slap to get them talking joke, brings back memories. My older relatives would rob banks. They said this joke a lot.

I hope this guyy has an audio biography of hs life i would definitely buy it... I love listening to his story and with his voice feels like im in the story with him like im watching it happen as he was telling it...

What a story!!

Can someone please give me a link to the earlier interview with David?

I read this man's book years ago. It is fascinating.

i read warren fellows book (the damage done) if im not mistaken ; he mentioned a guy that was the only escapee, who the prisoners refferred to as "the ghost" as not to feel the stick from guards or blue boys, does anyone know if he was refferring to this very felow? great upload by the way, i didnt want it to end, i could listen to the man all day.

@@samteks125 I was never charged. The Americans wanted me as they believed I was involved in a movement of herbs into there country. At the time there was no extradition treaty. I was charged in Florida under the RICO law. No comparable law in Thailand but why let law and justice get in the way. I fought the extradition, I had a very good honest straight lawyer. The judge said (I can speak Thai) why are you defending this foreigner as the laws don’t apply to him. My lawyer replied that every foreigner should be released as Thai laws don’t apply to them. He was censored and barred from the court room. After 5 years 2 Americans turned up, handcuffed me and physically took me to USA, no official paperwork just a good bit of US rendition. After a year in America being bussed and flown (con air) all over the states I finally got before a judge. A the DEA had used all the evidence on other cases the case was dismissed. Free to go. BUT the immigration arrested me for entering the USA without a passport or visa. 3 months in an immigration detention centre before being kicked out on a BA flight direct to London in an orange prison suit with canvas Chinese slippers on.
