"What is the Liquid sidechain? It looks like a private blockchain,

but claims to have some degree of decentralization."

"If it does work, what does it mean...

for the Bitcoin community and other sidechain projects, public or private?"

First of all, Liquid is a product name. It is the creation of a company called Blockstream,

which has a number of projects in the Bitcoin space; they also hire and pay a few developers to work on...

the Bitcoin protocol and the Bitcoin Core client.

Blockstream announced [this sidechain] a long time ago, probably two or three years ago.

They have hired some of the developers who came up with the initial idea of a sidechain.

A sidechain is a separate blockchain with a two-way peg, whereby you can move [value] from Bitcoin's chain...

to this other blockchain, use it [there for some purpose], and then move it back.

In the case of Liquid, it is the first sidechain implementation by Blockstream and has been...

in beta stage or trial stage for more than a year now.

Liquid is intended to be a backend exchange-to- exchange pipeline for bitcoin transfers, so that...

bitcoin can move very fluidly between exchanges without needing on-chain transactions.

The idea being, you have exchanges around the world who must withdraw and deposit...

bitcoin to addresses that belong to other exchanges.

Every time they do a withdrawal or deposit, they are not only using up space on the Bitcoin blockchain,

but they also need to pay fees.

Liquid is essentially payment channels with exchanges that allow them to move money...

between themselves directly, like a SWIFT network.

Liquid uses a federated signing model. It is not a mined chain, but a signed chain.

It uses a proof-of-authority [consensus algorithm]; there are some privileged nodes within the system...

that vet and manage the consensus rules of the sidechain.

They secure that blockchain by taking turns signing blocks.

There is a degree of [distribution] compared to a centralized provider like SWIFT, but there is not...

the degree of decentralization you have in a completely open blockchain with a proof-of-work algorithm.

On the Liquid sidechain, you are actually moving Liquid BTC around, which is a one-to-one equivalent of bitcoin.

You are locking up one bitcoin on the Bitcoin blockchain, and that becomes one Liquid BTC that can move...

on the Liquid sidechain, presumably at faster speeds and lower transaction costs,

without burdening the Bitcoin blockchain.

At any point in time, you can move one Liquid BTC back to one bitcoin, at a one-to-one exchange rate.

That is the basic idea. This is not for end-users and consumers; although there has been discussion...

about opening it up to others, this is something for exchanges to manage large flows of bitcoin...

between themselves, in a network that is off-chain and a commercial product.

It has fees, but as far as I understand the fees are for the providers of the security on this system.

"Does the Bitcoin Liquid sidechain compete with XRP / Ripple [in terms of] use case?"

Does the Liquid sidechain created by Blockstream compete with XRP / Ripple [in terms of] use case?

I don't think so. Ripple has a different model in its consensus layer, as well as...

how the currency is used within the network.

I think the people who are interested in XRP are not interested in Bitcoin, even through a sidechain.

There is a spectrum of applications here, from payment channels and atomic swaps with...

[decentralized] Lightning Network, to a [distributed proof-of-authority] sidechain like Liquid, to XRP / Ripple.

There is some overlap in those applications, but I don't think the overlap is enough and...

I think they differentiate enough that they don't directly compete.

"Do sidechains inherit any of the security properties of the main blockchain they are connected to,

or are they completely independent?"

"If not, how can we trust them?" That is a great question, Frank.

It depends on the implementation of the sidechain.

A sidechain is simply another blockchain that has a way to transfer value from another blockchain.

You have to block chains that are operating in parallel, side-by-side.

In fact, you can't really say one is a sidechain of the other, any more than the other is a sidechain.

They are both "sidechains" to each other.

They are both blockchains with mechanisms for cross- blockchain transfers, atomic swaps, and pegging...

which allow you to move value from one to the other.

But that doesn't mean they are not independent blockchains.

The question is, what are the consensus rules by which the blockchain is secured?

A sidechain is a blockchain with consensus rules.

Maybe it runs with proof-of-work (mining), proof-of-stake, or federated proof-of-authority signing.

Whatever the case may be, it will have the security characteristics those consensus mechanisms bring.

If two proof-of-work blockchains with substantial hashing power were made sidechains of each other,

they would have different characteristics than if you connect a proof-of-work blockchain like Bitcoin,

with a lot of hashing power, to a sidechain that has [less hashpower] or a different consensus mechanism.

"How can we trust them?"

You can trust them if you understand the security model and think it is strong enough,

but they don't really inherit the security of the other chain.

There are some exceptions to that with merged mining, where both chains mine together,

but those exceptions don't change the rule.

"Why have sidechains been overshadowed by other crypto projects like Ethereum for smart contracts...

and security tokens?"

Well, we haven't really seen a successful and popular implementation of sidechains [yet].

Sidechains were proposed four or five years ago, but [the deployment of] the underlying requirements...

that make sidechains possible have only recently entered into the various blockchains.

Only two have launched so far, that I know of: Rootstock and Liquid (just this week).

Other than that, we haven't seen broad use. Both of those are still in beta stage.

That is why sidechains are not yet, or may never be, as popular as separate blockchains bootstrapped...

with their own consensus layer, and operating with their own security.

I hope that answers your question.

Grown-ish 2x09 Sneak Peek #2 "Body Count" (HD) - Duration: 0:52.

But anyway, what's your stand on hot dogs?

Do you find them, like, appetizers or finger foods?

You call them a sandwich, not a sandwich? It is a piece of meat between two buns—

Alright, dude! Enough with the hot dogs, okay?

I'm sorry I've been avoiding you lately.

It's just that when Luca caught us, it freaked me out.

That could have been Zoey, and you know that would have been a nightmare.

So, I just figured it would just be best to just stop before anything big happens.

You know, be— beyond us making out.

Yes. I get it, I get it. Okay?

We're good. We're just friends who made out.

No big deal.

Right.

Right! So, let's get some food as friends.

Hot dogs?

Yeah! Yeah. Cause friends— friends eat.

Friends eat. Pals eat. Buddies eat.

Friends eat all the time!

Let's do it, friend.

First Look: Prodigy D1 Max Distance Driver | Disc Review - Duration: 2:59.

- What's up guys?

This is Will Schusterick,

three time United States Disc Golf Champion.

I'm here to bring you the brand new D1 Max,

which is the newest Distance Driver from Prodigy Disc.

The D1 Max is a compliment to the original release

of the D1, and I'm here with two young and up

and coming disc golfers that are now on the tournament team,

to give you an inside look at the D1 Max.

- Hey what's up guys?

My name is Harper Thompson.

I'm 15 years old and I'm from Nashville, Tennessee.

The D1 Max when compared

to the original D1 goes slightly further,

and has a more neutral flightpath.

When the D1 wants to finish weighs to the left,

this disc wants to finish just slightly less left,

and just wants to stay straighter.

It flips up earlier in the flight path compared

to the D1 as well.

It's very reliable in all wind conditions.

It has a smaller rim and a very smooth,

clean release out of my hand.

The top is slightly flatter than the D1.

The D1 max, with its higher speed and added glide makes

it better for all skill levels for a consistent,

overstable long range distance driver.

- What's up guys?

I'm Alden Harris from Woodstock, Georgia.

I'm a Pro level player, and this the D1 Max.

Compared to the original D1, the D1 Max has a softer finish,

has more speed, more glide, which allows it to go farther.

My initial thoughts with the D1 Max's feel

is the lower profile and the smoother top allows

for a clean release when I'm going for a max power shot.

- The D1 Max feels great in your hand,

which is going to give you confidence

on your long range overstable drives.

Thanks for watching the first look of the D1 Max

with Alden Harris and Harper Thompson,

and we'll see you out on the course.

How to Ask for LinkedIn Recommendations - Duration: 5:03.

Hi, I'm Jeri Walker, Career & Job Search Strategist and Founder of Your Best Designed Career

and in this video I'm going to show you how to request a LinkedIn recommendation

so that you can get instant social proof and increase your credibility on LinkedIn.

And be sure to stay to the end of this video because I'm going to share a resource with

you that will help you in your career.

One of the things that will persuade people to do business with you or hire you is if

someone else recommends you.

Just as celebrities may endorse a specific product to influence you to buy it, having

a third party recommendation on your LinkedIn profile is a really effective way to gain

credibility and social proof.

It's important as you move through your career to ask for these recommendations.

You can ask your manager, your colleague, your direct reports, or even a customer.

And don't wait until you are job searching to ask for these.

If you've just completed a big project, that's the time to ask for the recommendations.

Now I do suggest that before you send somebody a recommendation request, give them a head's

up just with a quick conversation.

Let them know that you are going to send them a recommendation request on LinkedIn so that

they'll know what to look for.

Now, let me show you how to do it.

Okay I'm at my profile now and you will need to be connected to the person that you

are asking a recommendation from so I'm going to ask Julie.

Now once you're on that person's profile you click this More button and then you have

the Request a Recommendation option.

And you're going to have all kinds of choices here as to how you're connected to this

person how you know this person.

So let's just say that we were in the same group.

And then I'm just going to pick this employer and then click Next.

Alright, you're given this default message but you really want to try and personalize

this so that you've got a little bit of direction you can give them some direction

as to really what you want them to talk about.

So I'm just putting here can you discuss the time that I helped you with the specific

account or project.

That way they can really have some guidance.

And then click send.

Then if I check my messaging I can see the sent message to Julie that is requesting the

recommendation.

Now if we go to the other side what Julie is going to see when she goes to her messaging

is this message from me asking her to write the Recommendation.

So what she will do is go into this message and click on this link.

And then she can click on this write a recommendation option.

And she'll just type in her recommendation right here.

Here's your recommendation.

And she'll click send.

And then I receive a message again back in my inbox that tells me that she's sent me

a recommendation so I can click on this link and it's going to allow me to preview it.

Now you have the options here to ask for a revision but it's not something I recommend,

if somebody's taken the time to give you a recommendation you should probably accept

it unless they are way off base.

So generally you're going to click on this add to profile option which I'm not going

to do right now so let's just dismiss this.

And that's how easy it is to ask for a recommendation.

Now you know how to request a recommendation on LinkedIn but do you know what the other

important pieces of your LinkedIn profile are?

Get my LinkedIn Checklist to be sure that your profile is set up so you can increase

your career opportunities.

I've dropped the link for that right below.

If you like this video, please give it a like below, and share it with somebody that you

know who may need this help.

And for more career and job search advice, subscribe to my channel and be sure to hit

the bell to be notified.

I post video every Tuesday.

Okay, go get those recommendations.

I'll see you next time.

Happily Married and Over Sharing - Duration: 8:32.

(funky upbeat music)

Kimberly Alavera.

Good morning.

Is this your lawyer?

My husband. Oh, your husband?

Okay, why don't you guys get two seperate mics, okay,

I know you're a very close family,

you wanna stay close together, right.

Alright, now I'm gonna take a guess,

you were driving the vehicle?

She was.

Inspector Quinn, I started off wrong.

You allow her to use the vehicle occasionally?

Sometimes. Yeah?

When she's good.

And I'm always good. Pretty fancy SUV.

Let's see, you're charged with parking

in a prohibited area on Fifth Street?

Yes, my grandmother-- I mean,

I know why you're here incidentally.

I don't know why either. I know why you're here,

you're here to pay. Just to protect.

Yeah, to pay, yeah. To pay, yeah,

that's why you're here.

Who's gonna pay, you or him?

He is. He is?

She does the crime and I pay for it.

That's why she's completely relaxed,

she don't care. That was the arrangement.

Right?

That's the benefits of being married.

How many children do you have?

We have two now. Yeah,

well you're charged with parking in a prohibited area.

Yes. On Fifth Street,

that's up near Miriam Hospital.

What do you wanna tell me about it?

Well, it was a very busy day that day.

I was actually following my mother,

because I didn't know how to get to the hospital.

Oh, now you're throwing your mother under the bus.

I know, I have to, because it's part of,

I don't understand why I got the ticket,

Alright. nobody else did.

Alright.

But my grandmother had been admitted the night before,

so I was going to help my mother out.

So I followed her into two parking lots,

there was no place to park, valet was out in the street,

so we parked on this street I followed her to.

We parked there, there was a delivery truck in front of us,

we went in, she asked the valet

if it was okay to be parked there, he said it was okay

as long as it was less than two hours.

So I made sure it was less than two hours,

but when I came out, I had a ticket,

her car was still there, she did not have a ticket.

Well, I have a photograph of the area

and a photograph of your car

and it is a delivery truck in front of you.

Yeah, I think it was only within 10 minutes

I got that ticket, according to the stamp that was on it,

the time stamp.

And next to the delivery truck is a pole with signs on it,

which are not visible in the photograph.

So what do you think, Inspector Quinn?

Your Honor, the signs on the pole

say no parking any time.

Deliveries between eight and four.

Does it really?

Your Honor, there's no way I could have read that sign.

The photo the city provided, your Honor,

does not allow me the ability to read the times on the sign.

Yeah, okay.

Okay, so you followed your mother to the hospital,

because your grandmother was in the hospital, right?

You asked the valet, where can I park?

He says, park over there.

You said to him, are you sure?

He says sure I'm sure, he don't care.

Right. He don't care,

he thinks I'm gonna get rid of her, right?

I got other stuff to do, park anywhere you want.

And then you drag your husband into court.

Yeah, he wanted to come.

You guys get along pretty good, are you recently married?

No, 37 years. How many?

37.

37 years?

I feel your pain, same thing.

Hey, it's been good so far.

I'm gonna ask you a question.

Okay.

This is a family joke

and I will explain it after I finish, okay.

How many years have you been happily married?

You don't have to answer.

30. You don't have to answer.

Well, it's like up and down.

It's up and down, it's like this?

Peaks and valleys?

Yeah. Okay,

that's life, life is peaks and valleys.

But my wife and I have been married 50 years

and every time we meet people, God bless you.

I'll introduce people and I'll say, introduce them,

they'll say, oh, how long you been married?

I say we've been happily married for five years

and they say, oh, is this your second or third wife?

No, no, no, no, no.

Inspector Quinn, who is the prosecuting officer

said he can't read the sign,

so if he can't read the sign, the city can't prove its case,

if the city can't prove its case,

the matter's gonna be dismissed.

You just saved 30 bucks.

Thank you, I appreciate it. Take her to breakfast.

Now go for the $100 breakfast.

Thank you. Thank you.

Alright. Have a good day.

Bernadette Ortese.

Okay, Bernadette, you're charged

with loud music coming from your home

at 3:30 in the morning.

Was you having a party?

I was having a get together.

What was the occasion?

Just celebrating.

Bunch of friends?

Just a little get together, people were--

How many people were in the house?

12 or so.

Well, you have two choices,

you can plead guilty today and I'll impose a fine,

or you can come back and have a trial.

Is there anything you wanna tell me about it?

It was just a simple, we was drinking, I got drunk,

I blacked out, don't remember much of it.

You blacked out? Yeah,

I don't remember the cops coming and stuff.

But did you-- I was really drunk.

Did you speak to the police when they came?

If I did, I don't remember.

Oh, you don't remember what you said?

'Cause there's a police report on this

and I'm not gonna read the police report, okay.

I'm sure you probably said, listen, sir, I'm sorry,

you know, we're just having some friends getting together

and I realize, officer, you have a tough job

and please show us some mercy,

I think that's what you said

to the police officer, right?

I hope so. Something like that.

What do you think, Inspector Quinn, is that what she said?

I've yet to read that report, it sounds like--

We're not reading the report,

we're not gonna do that to her.

The operation of that report, I've yet to read that.

She comes across, she's very honest,

she's had too much to drink,

I have some friends, the cops came,

maybe I said some stuff that was inappropriate,

but that's not really me.

Right.

Is that what you wanted to say?

Perfect as on point. Alright.

Now what are you really thinking?

I was wondering what I really said.

Well, there's a $500 fine here,

so how do you plead, guilty or not guilty?

I would say guilty with an explanation,

which I just gave, so. Yeah.

I don't know, Inspector Quinn, I think we have to fine her,

but I just dropped one of the zeros,

so it's gonna cost you $50.

Thank you.

I just thought you dropped the zero

after the decimal point.

Now there were 13 people at the party, right?

Yeah. Alright.

We was all just having fun. Alright.

It got out of hand, I guess,

'cause after a few drinks. I think you better

call them up and tell them.

I'm gonna start charging $25 a head or something.

It's a $50 fine, right, so call 'em up

and tell 'em to go $4 each,

they all have to participate in the fine, right.

Yes. Okay, good luck to you.

Thank you.

When you come to court,

you are required to tell the truth,

the whole truth and nothing but the truth,

but nowhere do we ask that you overshare.

I was eight months' pregnant and I had to pee.

Yeah, I was over my girlfriend's house.

Can I just add my, some surgery, my fingers amputated.

While we appreciate Miss Ortese's honesty,

when she admitted that she got blackout drunk,

she could have simply said that she was over served,

a phrase that I'm occasionally required to employ.

Hey, it happens.

Happy birthday, Bernadette

and next year, might I recommend

water, wine, water, wine and you'll be fine.

Jussie Smollett EXPOSES the Media and Hollywood - Duration: 12:20.

Hi everyone I hope you're all well. So unless you have been on a total hiatus

from the internet you will have heard about Jussie Smollett and his fake hate

crime. Just a quick recap it was reported on January 29th that the gay, black, Empire

actor had been attacked by two masked men who's he said he believed were white

at 2:00 a.m. in the morning on the streets of Chicago.

He said they poured bleach on him and tied a rope around his neck and yelled

"this is MAGA country". There was however no CCTV footage of the incident despite

the fact it happened in an area with allegedly a lot of cameras. Anyway since

then two Nigerian brothers have been arrested who were known to Jussie and

they admitted to police that Jussie paid them to stage the attack and that they'd

even had a rehearsal for it a couple of days before the incident. So long story

short the police have now said in light of the new evidence that the trajectory

of the investigation has changed and that they want to call Jussie in again

for further questioning. So while it may all be true, Jesse may not be lying, it

may in fact be a real hate crime - which is why I'm not a hundred percent calling

it either way in case I am wrong - it does look an awful lot like he faked it. Now

anyone with a brain would have told you that there was plenty of reasonable

doubt about this issue right from the get-go.

However the mainstream media and Hollywood elites bought the story like

you'd buy a $2.00 sundae. Tweet after tweet from journalists from 'reputable'

legacy media organizations voiced their disgust not to mention the outpouring of

celebrity support for Jussie and unquestioning condemnation of Trump

supporters and now that it's all started falling apart most of these same people

these big professionals and formerly trusted public figures are silent. No

retraction, no apology, nothing. The casual nonpartisan observer will look at this

situation and despair at the state of the press and at these highly

influential public figures. They will wonder how and why on earth it has got

to this point. But fear not there is a reason to explain why journalists and

celebrities have reached peak hysteria. You see Hollywood and the media are

afflicted with a disease it's a virus, it's highly

contagious and at this point in time there is no cure.

It turns the most seemingly credible of people into blithering idiots and causes

them to propagate the fakest of news. I'm talking of course about Trump

Derangement Syndrome. Trump Derangement Syndrome or TDS is a disease in four

stages and is characterized by a desperate need to protect your worldview

by any means necessary. It is coupled with a chronic fear of being wrong and

an inability to grasp the reality that Donald Trump is in fact President of the

United States of America. Symptoms of the disease were first observed on November

9th 2016 and it has been getting progressively worse. *Steven Colbert* - I don't think I'm

gonna sit down actually I don't think I could sit down right now. How did our

politics get so poisonous. *Miley Cyrus* - I still think that in her lifetime she deserves

to be the first female president that's what makes me so sad. - Miley Cyrus uploads that

grief-stricken video while Lady Gaga posts a picture of her protesting with

the caption I want to live in a country of kindness. Katy Perry goes off in a

series of enraged tweets saying the revolution is coming. Practically all of

Hollywood has something to say on social media about last night's results and the

overwhelming majority of it is negative.

however the core trigger for the infection among public figures is that

after eight years of progressive narrative under their angel Obama

Hollywood and the media are no longer getting their way. And for a group of

people so chronically spoiled by existing in a bubble of money, adoration

and lack of consequences not getting your way can have a profound

psychological effect amounting to the Twitter and media version of this.

After the 2016 election loss, liberal elites were so

colossally embarrassed and shocked that they'd got it so wrong that they went

into a sort of panic. However rather than taking a step back, admitting they were

wrong and attempting to atone for their stupidity and closed-mindedness they did

the opposite they doubled down, determined to maintain what they

considered the appropriate societal narrative. However rather than come

across as erudite in their commentary they came across as hilarious.

Nevertheless their TDS at the time was only in stage one - that is denial but

defiant. So rather than succumb to despair Hollywood and the media were

able to take a deep breath, straighten their shoulders and comfort themselves

with the assumption that sooner or later - probably sooner - Trump would be impeached.

So rather than admitting they lost the election because Hillary Clinton was a

really bad candidate, they insisted they lost because Russia. Yep according to the

media in Hollywood, Russia must have colluded with Trump in order to tamper

with the election that's the only reason he could have won surely that would be

found out soon enough, Trump would be bumped and they could go back to getting

their way all the time. That or Trump would have dodgy tax

returns or he'd commit atrocities in office that would get him sent to prison

or he'd be decided to be so psychologically unstable that he could

justifiably be impeached as unfit to govern. However none of that happened. No

immediate proof of a Russian collusion turned up and their expectation the

Trump would turn out to be a fascist dictator who would destroy America's

economy and that his supporters would turn out to universally be bigoted thugs

who delighted in bashing up minorities women simply didn't happen Trump

supporters were not continually rioting in the street. The only remote bit of

success the media in Hollywood had in penning Trump supporters as violent

white supremacists was the Unite The Right rally in Charlottesville in 2017.

However even that narrative fell through when it came to light that the only

reason the event got violent was because far-left Antifa showed up with the

intent of making a scene and also conservatives and Trump supporters

condemned the rally participants on mass. And so despite all their efforts Trump

was still not impeached. They were still not getting their way and so they

entered stage two of TDS - ticking off Republicans. The Hollywood and the media

started to work within the trump presidency to intimidate and irritate

Republicans as much as possible for example the Brett Kavanaugh fiasco. As

soon as Trump announced Brett Kavanaugh's nomination for Supreme Court

Justice the media and Hollywood tried everything to smear him and to bully

Republicans into getting rid of him. Led by the Democrats themselves they said he

was a misogynist and that he was evil and that people would die if he was

appointed. They said that he was anti-women's rights and would make abortion

illegal so women would have to go back to coat hangers. But still these attempts

failed and we all know what happened next.

Nevertheless Brett Kavanaugh was still appointed. Trump did not cave to their

bullying and intimidation tactics and once again they did not get their way.

Now this failure was a colossal slap in the face the media and Hollywood elites

had thrown everything and the book at destroying Brett Kavanaugh and it hadn't

worked. They were so sure that this time definitely they were going to win which

would pave the way back to their old life of always getting what they want.

Sadly this triggered stage three of TDS - The Salem Witch trials. *The Simpsons* there is still a

witch among us. Let us throw open the floor to a wild accusations. I accuse

goody Flanders. I accuse goody bad wife. We killed her on Sunday there

must be someone here we can accuse. - Just like when the people of Salem were

rounding up so-called witches in the 1600s based, on nothing so too are the

media and Hollywood nowadays when it comes to so-called

racists. We saw the first whiff of this recently with the Covington boys. Now

you've got to remember here that the media and Hollywood hate Trump's

supporters almost as much as they hate the man himself you show them a MAGA

hat and it's like they need a flu shot. The effect on them is so visceral. Trump

supporters are a direct affront to their original belief that Trump had hardly

any fans and was going to be crushed by Hillary. They also hate the fact that

Trump supporters are actually not all bigoted, straight, white men. As such

liberal elites in the media and in Hollywood will jump at any chance to

attempt to assert the Trump supporters are as they had originally assumed. White

male and racists. The Covington narrative based on this out of context footage was

just too delicious to pass up. You had white teenage boys wearing MAGA hats

from an all-boys Catholic school attending a March for Life rally

appearing to taught a Native American elder while he was singing a tribal song.

It was a Trump haters absolute dream come true. And so considering the

advanced stages of TDS these elites are currently in they, bypass professionalism,

logic, reservation and common sense and piled on these children as if they were

murderers. It was astounding and even when that narrative fell apart

spectacularly the media and Hollywood either swept it under the rug or doubled

down so desperate were they to be right, to have their worldview once again

confirmed and to regain the moral high ground it's really quite pathetic. And

that brings us back to the present and to Jussie Smollett. Another irresistible

narrative, lack of a suspect and corroborating evidence be damned. So if

you've been wondering why the commentariat seems to have been getting worse and

worse it all boils down to these advanced stages of Trump Derangement

Syndrome and the fact that they haven't managed to impeach Trump. They are

spoiled brats throwing a collective years-long

tantrum simply because they're not getting their way. Now as for what the

inevitable stage 4 of TDS will bring I don't know but I do know that I am

really, really not looking forward to it. If you like that video please remember

How Did El Chapo Escape Prison? - Duration: 5:22.

El Chapo's escape from prison was branded the jailbreak of the millennium.

He was the most powerful drug trafficker in the world, and was being held at a top security

prison in mexico, but that wasn't enough to stop el chapo from breaking out.

Chapo had friends in high places, and an army of people helping him escape.

So how did El Chapo escape from prison?

That's the question we're asking today on life's biggest questions.

Hello and welcome back to life's biggest questions, the channe that asks the fundamental

questions of life, and occasionally answers them too.

I'm charlotte dobre, hit that subscribe for more daily questions that will have you

asking more questions, and be sure to stick around until the end of the video where we

respond to some of your comments.

The drug kingpin, Joaquin guzman, aka El Chapo has actually escaped from prison twice.

June 10th, 1993, mexico announces that they have captured El Chapo in Guatemala.

He was sentenced to 20 years.

But while he was in prison, it was almost as if he was never captured in the first place.

According to actor Robert Saviano, el chapo continued to manage his affairs from prison

with scarcely a hitch.

In fact, he was using the prison as his new base of operations.

Then after a few years, in 2001, Guzman broke out of a top security jail, Puente Grande.

He supposedly escaped in a laundry truck, but apparently this might have been a myth.

El Chapo was the most powerful man in mexico.

He was also one of the richest, which meant he could buy pretty much anyone's loyalty,

and that included officials at the jail.

According to a book by Anabel Hernandez, Guzman held Christmas parties with his extended family

within the jail for several days.

The first time, Guzman actually escaped wearing a police uniform, escorted by a policeman.

He bribed guards.

The day before, the Mexican minister of justice went to the jail to react to the break out,

which is another way of saying he knew that el chapo was going to break out of prison.

He was captured again in Mazatlan on February 22nd, 2014.

One would think that after a jailbreak like that, there was no way the Mexican government

would allow el chapo to escape again.

This time, they placed him in mexico's top security prison, Altiplano Federal Penetentiary.

But again, Mexico's top security prison was no match for the cunning and resourceful

El Chapo Guzman.

He escaped, a second time, on july 15th, 2015.

Coincidentally, or maybe not, Altiplano prison looks identical to the first prison el chapo

escaped from.

El chapo waited patiently for a little over a year while at Altiplanto.

He was well behaved, and his prison cell was monitored 24/7.

But this was just a front.

There was an elaborate plan unfolding literally beneath el chapo's feet.

A prison guard gave him his daily medicine, and then somewhere in the span of 50 minutes,

el chapo was not visible on the video camera system.

At around 8:52 pm on July 15th, an alert was sent out, and guards went to his cell to find

a small opening in Guzman's bathroom.

A security camera that was inside El Chapo's cell revealed that he climbed down a hole

that was created in his shower.

The hole was two by two feet, and it led to an extremely intricate, extremely long tunnel.

At one mile in length, the tunnel had lighting, ventilation and a motorcycle was placed on

rails.

El chapo got onto the bike and sped along the length of the tunnel.

At the end of the tunnel, there was a construction site.

The tunnel went upward, el chapo climbed a ladder and found himself in a home that had

a small exit in the floor.

El chapo was then free, and in the neighbourhood of Santa Juanita.

So how did all of this go unnoticed?

His cell only had one security camera, and the escape hole was planned for the area of

el chapo's cell was right in the camera's blind spot.

And lets not forget the bribes.

There had to be some collusion of prison guards and officials for this escape to take place,

and go unnoticed.

The prime suspect in the investigation of the escape was Damaso Lopez, who was believed

to have provided blue prints of the prison before quitting his job at Puente Grande.

Again, I will remind you that both of the prisons chapo escaped from were shockingly

similar in layout.

Construction on the escape compound began after February 2014.

Satellite images show that after February 2015, the site was complete.

Workers took the dirt from the tunnel and spread it around the construction site.

Huge piles of dirt would definitely draw attention, so the workers sprinkled the dirt around on

the ground.

The escape house didn't raise suspicion because it was on a construction site.

Normally gas would have been requested for such a house, but because it was under construction,

it wasn't unusual.

Its estimated that the cost of the escape, including bribes and construction was around

50 million dollars.

Well there you have it.

Definitely an interesting topic, and we hope that this video has inspired you to look into

it further on your own.

For now, I'm going to wrap up this video with some featured comments from my last video,

what if the library of Alexandria was never destroyed.

Cinyx GP – finally a question that's actually a life's biggest question.

I detect a little bit of sass.

Git Gud – most of the information got taken to the Vatican and is hidden away.

I actually heard about this and was thinking it would be a good topic for a future video,

what do you think?

The immortal super being – what if we got a message from the Andromeda system saying,

we are coming for you?

I would be a little scared but also please take me away, I don't want to live in the

milky way anymore.

DJ jokeez – see if Rebecca would go on a date with me charlotte she's pretty cute.

I'll definitely ask her for you.

Thank you for tuning in to life's biggest questions.

To go on an LBQ binge,

Top 5 Horror Movies That Were Almost Too Real - Duration: 9:57.

Now, one of the reasons that we are captivated by horror cinema - is for the incredible display

of creative talent from special effects artists and visual designers that somehow manage to

capture the physical form of nightmarish monsters and gruesome creations, breathing life into

an idea from a script all the way to the silver screen.

Sometimes though, their creative talent is a little too real - and historically, in some

cases any way, it's left audiences a little -- too shocked, to say the least.

And horror cinema - particularly grindhouse and splatter horror - sometimes just so happens

to BE a little -- too - real.

Well, let's take a look shall we?

Hello horror fans, and once again welcome back to the scariest channel on YouTube, Top

5 Scary Videos.

As per usual, I'll be your horror host Jack Finch - as today, we circumvent the BBFC - and

take a look at the Top 5 Horror Movies That Were Almost Too Real.

Roll the clip.

For the curious amongst you, that clip was from 1987's Evil Dead 2 - and in no way

is it tied to this list, I just love it and thought it was rather fitting.

So in the immortal words of Ash Williams.

Let's go.

Kicking off at Number 5 - A Lizard in a Woman's Skin, 1971

For those of you that don't know, giallo cinema was a very specific style of Italian

horror, particularly tied to the mid-to-late 1960s, which often employed murder mystery

tropes with dramatic suspense building, peaked with bursts of slasher violence and fantasy

eroticisim.

It's not for everyone, but it had a massive impact on later American slasher horror - and

perhaps one of the most intriguing examples of giallo cinema is 1971's A Lizard in a

Woman's Skin, directed and written by Lucio Fulci.

Well, as chance would have it - legendary special effects artist Carlo Rambaldi was

actually tied to this film before his work on Steven Spielberg's E.T - and his eye for

visual nasties was so convincing that it actually landed the director in an Italian criminal

court.

During the events of the film, the lead character Carol finds herself wrapped up in a LSD-fuelled

crime story involving murderous dreams and mind bending altercations - and at one point

finds herself confronted with four vivisected dogs, their chests open and their hearts still

being.

The physical effects were so convincing that the courts charged Lucio Fulci with animal

cruelty, and the director faced a two-year prison sentence.

In the end, Carlo Rambaldi had to present the animatronic creations in front of a court

- where the charges were eventually dropped.

Now, that's a close call.

Coming in at Number 4 - Guinea Pig: Flowers of Flesh and Blood, 1985

Perhaps one of the most controversial depictions of horror cinema in the whole of Japanese

history, if not the rest of the world.

The Guinea Pig films are a series of six Japanese horror films from the early 1980s and 90s

- based off of the filmmaker, Hideshi Hino's, own horror manga series of a similar nature

- that depicts incredibly graphic and grotesque Japanese body horror and violence.

Now listen, this style of horror cinema isn't really for me - but fringe filmmaking has

often pushed the boundaries, so that the mainstream can further develop the genre as a whole.

But, on the flip side - Hideshi Hino's work had a pretty rough time, to say the least

- and the filmmaker had to constantly prove that no one was actually hurt or murdered

during production.

Well, in a bizarre turn of events - that involved Charlie Sheen of all people - it had The Guinea

Pig series being investigated by the FBI.

In 1991, actor Charlie Sheen was given a copy of the second film in the series, Flowers

of Flesh and Blood - and after watching it, Sheen mistook it for a genuine snuff film

- claiming that the graphic depictions on screen were so lifelike that there was no

way special effects could have pulled it off.

He was so convinced that he contacted the FBI to report it, only to find that they were

in fact already investigating the filmmakers - who were then summoned to a Japanese court

to prove that the special effects were fake.

Must have been all of that Tiger Blood.

Swinging in at Number 3 - August Underground, 2001

Alright - let's not beat around the bush.

This film isn't for me, and after speaking to a few of you in the comment section a few

months back - it's not for most people, really.

Although, there is something to be said about director Fred Vogel's audacity to make this

film - and the fact that August Underground was even made is worthy of a commendation.

Vogel intended to make the most messed up film he possibly could - and he did exactly

that.

Written, directed and produced by Fred Vogel, with a writing credit going to his offscreen

supporting actor Allen Peters - August Underground depicts the exploits of a serial killer named

Peter Mountain while being filmed by his unseen accomplice.

The thing is though, Fred Vogel's sadistic cinematic interpretation was a little too

real for some.

While travelling to Canada to attend the Rue Morgue Festival of Fear in Toronto - Vogel

was arrested at the airport - pending charges of transporting obscene materials into Canada

- after copies of August Underground and its sequels were found by customs officials that

he intended to sell at the convention.

Vogel was held for roughly ten hours in customs prison, while his films were sent to Ottawa

for analysis.

Eventually, he was released without charge - and ultimately, Vogel probably got the reaction

that he'd been hoping for all along.

Next up at Number 2 - Snuff, 1976

And

much like August Underground, the creators of Snuff actually made this film with the

intention of convincing people that it was real - in what proved to be one of the most

calamitous and opportunistic turn of events in horror history.

In 1971 - notorious Grindhouse husband and wife duo Michael and Roberta Findlay, had

made a low-budget exploitation film known as Slaughter, filmed in Argentina on a budget

of 30 thousand dollars.

And well, obviously - it was terrible - and suffered a string of limited releases - until

it was picked up by Allan Shackleton, an independent low budget film distributor, where he kept

it in his archive for four years.

Until 1976 - when the urban legend of snuff cinema was at its highest peak, and Shackleton

figured he could cash in.

He retitled it Snuff, as well as refilming the ending - this time depicting what appeared

to be a real murder after the filmmakers had supposedly finished rolling.

The audience saw the crew members brutally murder the films lead actress before cutting

to black and removing the films credits.

To add insult, it was also marketed with the tagline - The Film that could only be made

in South America -- where life is cheap.

And well, it worked.

The public genuinely believed that it was a snuff movie, and contained video evidence

of a murder.

So much so, that Shackleton and crew were investigated by the District Attorney of New

York - who wasn't appeased until he actually saw the lead actress alive and well.

Obviously, she was - but still.

I'd consider that a pretty close call.

And finally - at our Number 1 spot - Cannibal Holocaust, 1980

And it has to be really.

Perhaps the most notorious exploitation film of all time, that eventually saw the films

creator, Ruggero Deodato, charged with multiple counts of murder after it's release in 1980.

Cannibal Holocaust is a title synonymous with exactly how far filmmakers can push the boundaries

of cinematic violence and depravity - but in the end, has proved to be a retrospection

of the ethics of journalism, the exploitation of developing countries - and the nature of

an expansive society versus indigenous peoples.

Also noted as one of the most important found footage films of all time, Cannibal Holocaust

depicts a multi-layered narrative, initially focusing on a team of film crew members who

go missing in an area of the Amazon rainforest known as the Green Inferno - a title later

used by Eli Roth in his own homage to Deodato's work.

After its release, the world was so shocked by the depiction of graphic violence that

the vast majority of the public were convinced it was real, exacerbated by a rumour that

several actors had indeed been killed on camera while filming.

Of course, Deodato was eventually cleared of all charges after the film's actors finally

appeared in a television interview - but the legacy of Cannibal Holocaust lived on.

Well, unfortunately folks, I hope that you've enjoyed this list - but that's all we've

got time for in today's video - why don't you let us know your thoughts in the comment

section down below.

Before we depart, let's read out some of your more creative comments from over the

past few days.

First up, Catharina_ell says -- I've seen Lucy's Instagram story - and I have to say,

you sing good!

-- Well, Catharina, all I can say is I'm glad that Instagram stories are only temporary!

Hey, also, what can I say.

Karaoke is serious business.

Go big, or go home - or sing Bring me to Life by Evanescence like my girl Rebecca Felgate.

Next up, Daniel norse Northey says -- Jack you could narrate anything, your awesome mate

-- Well Daniel norse Northey, that's incredibly kind of you pal - and I'm glad that you've

said that because I was actually planning on reading out an anthology series of Ikea's

best instruction manuals, and you've just give me the confidence to carry it out.

Just kidding.

Well on that note, cheers for sticking around all the way until the end.
