I was in Peace Corps for two years in West Africa and those idiots in Story #3 had me facepalming during the entire thing. "Gee, why did this bad scenario keep happening to us after we consistently ignored all safety warnings by the locals and kept getting ourselves into stupid and dangerous situations?" It's a mystery, all right, OP!
Another word of advice that I'm not seeing from anybody else here in the comments is: if you can, bring something with you for defense and CARRY IT WITH YOU as much as you can. Just last month I traveled by myself for the very first time to LA, but unfortunately LA has its fair share of crimes due to its immense size. I was not going to take any chances on this trip, especially since this was my first time traveling and flying by myself, so I made sure to grab me a pepper spray and carry it with me during this trip. CARRY A PEPPER SPRAY ON YOU AT ALL TIMES PEOPLE!!!! It won't just save your life, it may also save your belongings and valuables!!
"I'm a big solo traveler, and when this complete stranger in the lobby asked to know my room number, I said okay!" They don't sound responsible enough to be a solo traveler.
Please please deadbolt your hotel room door. I’ve worked in hospitality for over a decade and most people would be shocked at just how many employees have access to master keys. It’s also alarming at how readily some hotel workers will just hand someone a key to a room or let them into one without any verification that the person is allowed in the room. Additionally, mistakes are made at the front desk which can result in handing out the wrong key. Always deadbolt your door. If the deadbolt is engaged no one can get into your room without literally taking the whole lock off of the door. Be safe.
I am Mexican and have lived in Mexico for all my life in a city way more dangerous than Cancun, where kidnapping, r*ape and Feminicides are very common. As a recommendation for all of you who aren’t Latinos and aren’t used to being in dangerous places, never go “solo” adventuring, always arrange with your hotel staff to do an excursion or something. And also if you do plan to go by yourself to visit little towns and stuff, try to have a local with you. Story #3 was luckily in Cancun where it isn’t really dangerous. But for the center and north of Mexico, you can expect to be kidnapped, especially if you do what the people in story #3 did.
Rules for solo traveling: -Never let strangers know you’re alone. Lie and say you’re meeting a friend. -Never tell people where and how long you’re staying. -Never let a stranger “help you with your bags”. It’s usually either a scam or worse. -Always use the latch lock on the hotel door in addition to the deadbolt. -If staying in a hostel, keep a lock on your luggage. -Send a friend or family member updates on where you are throughout your trip. -Keep your money and valuables in a money belt close to your skin when out and in locked luggage when sleeping.
@@shifterdriver6215 Privileged enough or intelligent enough? Following safety tips while traveling isn't for the privileged you triggered weirdo. People really overuse that word and have no concept of its meaning 🤦🏻
Word of advice: It doesn't matter which country you're visiting. Stay within areas that are considered safe. Learn some language if you're going to a foreign country. Make sure you understand some of their lingo, otherwise the natives will think you're a tourist. That couple with the story about Mexico weren't very smart.
The first time they went somewhere they were warned not to they weren't very smart, the second time they did it the very next day they're lucky they're not Darwin Award winners.
the only smart thing they did was judt decide to drive after they were stopped the first time, a lot of people get locked by anxiety or being too scared to run someone over, even though its a life threatening situation, and as a result let themselves get more cornered, at least he had the tiny amount of sense that he should just drive instead of staying, but I guess thats not a high bar of intellligence
Yes, ALWAYS stop your car and open your window when 3 men walk out of the woods. They want to give you a lot of money. “Knowing it could be trouble” they brought the car to a halt. How these two loons are still alive is the real mystery.
@@tonyeight9979 I would have floored it, but, then again, I would not have driven down an isolated road anywhere, much less a foreign country. Avoid lonely roads when possible. Stay close to the hotel.
I feel like the first story could have easily been avoided, SPECIALLY if you consider yourself a frequent traveler. Being a solo traveler you should always be extra careful and never let your guard down. Doesn’t matter if someone seems friendly. They’re still a complete stranger and you’re allowing them to know where exactly you’re staying. Be safe out there.
i was so surprised they didn't ask to change rooms after the incident with the guy posing as housekeeping. at least the traveler got out unscathed. there are some sick and evil people out there.
i love these stories, but its so frustrating always noticing how many of these things i listen to while utterly stupefied how simply owning $250 pistol and a little bit of gun safety training could save many of these people a lot of unnecessary feelings of fear and helplessness
I was talking to an older Italian immigrant at my job about my sister going to Venice for vacation. He smiled and said "It's beautiful there. Tell her to trust no one."
Never been to Italy, but I’ve been to some 3rd world countries… it’s crazy how ill prepared so many tourists are when they travel abroad.. expect that everyone is trying to scam you, especially in tourist area.
The guy in the beginning told them to stick to the main resorts. Like I'm going to drive off into an abandoned road.. might work in America or Canada but seriously the last story is about not following directions and then stopping when 3 men are coming out of the jungle .
No kidding. "Well we almost got robbed, raped and\or killed going down a dirt road we were told not to go down, but let's try it again for shits and giggles...."
So, for story one let me get this straight: A hotelier tips you off that someone may be stalking you and even though you're not sold on the theory, you decide it could have validity. Yet, you never change rooms? That would have been my first task, saying "Well, hopefully not, but can you change my room just in case?"
@@itachiuchiwa6875 No, she was CONSIDERING suing them....................Mr. Nightmare says that she didn't press charges, but felt that she probably should have done so.
Story #1 she made so many mistakes! She is SO LUCKY to be alive. When the woman at the desk warned her she should have requested a room change immediately!!
Exactly! I’m listening the story almost falling out of my chair at the fact she never even considered changing rooms, not just after the room service thing, but after the lady at front desk warned her he wasn’t staying at hotel and was waiting outside
Exactly! I’m listening the story almost falling out of my chair at the fact she never even considered changing rooms, not just after the room service thing, but after the lady at front desk warned her he wasn’t staying at hotel and was waiting outside
@Andrew, I think you're also forgetting, that hotel is responsible for the fact that one of their master keys found its way into the pocket of a criminal ! How did they manage that? Even if the girl avoided being helped with her bags, they failed to deal with a guy standing around *that was clearly not a guest*
What disturbed me was the quieted 'rape' at around 9:13, specifically since he has said this word many times and never muted it. I hope someone else noticed this bc it's so angering for me to censor these words on a channel based on these subjects
that first person was so stupid. you NEVER let anyone aside from staff help you with bags, you NEVER tell anyone you're travelling alone, and you NEVER let them know where you're staying. NO common sense at all
@@leahhuntz6236 doubt it was a master key. They dont just give those things out. Most likely he asked a new front desk worker for a key to the room, since really all you have to do is say the room number and like "haha i left it in the room"
"Press charges on the Hotel"?? They're the ones that saved your life after you let some complete stranger take you to your room! LOL The desk clerk didn't have to warn you about the guy..and if it wasn't for hotel staff you would've probably been murdered if nobody responded. Smh
She’s probably an entitled rich trust fund person. It would explain how she can travel so often as well as stupidly letting a strange man take your bags to your room.
The first thing that you should NEVER do is to let any stranger help you with your bags. They now know where your room is. After the person was warned about the strange man I honestly thought that they would have been put into a different room on a different floor for their safety and the fact that this didn’t cross anyones mind bothered the hell out of me while listening further to the story…. I am a very paranoid person however because I’ve seen and dealt with some scary situations due to moving around and being in undesirable living situations. Glad that this person was able to get out of such a terrifying situation before it went any further 😮
@@melissagrant4178 right? I know I wouldn’t be going to that room, I’d want a room on the main floor closer to the front desk after some creep like that hanging around, knowing where my room is, and that I’m alone…
Traveling alone in a perfect world would be absolutely amazing! I've always wanted to try it, but in a world like this... I am not sure if I ever actually have the guts to do so. I just feel like it's not worth the trauma.
I traveled from Cameroon, Africa to Oregon, USA by myself A 36 hour flight 3-5 hour layovers Even as a woman, you have to just keep alert about things. Even on layovers, I never slept. I only slept on the plane. I had one carry on to keep track of It's really just about being smart about it
I've both traveled alone and lived alone for a few months in a foreign country. It isn't as scary as people think. Common sense and a reasonable amount of self-preservation is sufficient.
What to do ? 1. Take help from random stranger when you don't need any, especially leading them into your hotel room or private areas . 2. Follow random stranger and trust them to help you when you already know that's not the protocol to follow.
When my sis and her lady went to Mexico, they were told by every staff member they spoke to *not* to leave the resort. They listened, and to this day, they're the only people I know who came back from Mexico without a scary af story
Yup. My mother lived there for almost a year and would keep going back to see friends. Lucky for her, she learned to speak fluent Spanish. Anyway, she’s 50 now and has been kidnapped 3 times in her life and all were in Mexico
my auntie visits mexico to see my grandpa (her dad) and hasnt had a bad story yet but it probably helps that she has her dad to tell her what and what not to do
Mexico gets a bad rap. It is a beautiful and special country. Yes, there are dangers, but there are dangers in every country. Just be smart when travelling.
3rd story: "safer areas" in countries that are foreign to you need to be put in quotes, and there's a good reason for it. My uncle was actually shot AT a resort in Mexico by a drunk federale. If there's anything I've learned from both my uncle and from Mr. Nightmare, it's that no place is ever completely safe.
Recently there was a young American man, Paul Nguyen, who was killed in Colombia. Paul was solo traveling around Medellin, Colombia when he met a girl on Tinder. The two met at a nightclub and Paul left with the girl. Sadly this was the last time he was seen alive. Just a day later his body was found dumped somewhere. Authorities believe Paul was drugged, robbed and eventually murdered by a gang who used the girl to lure him. Sadly this is very common in Latin America. Latin Americans are some of the friendliest people I've met and South America has some amazing geography. Sadly most Latin American countries are too dangerous for many tourists to visit. Unless people know the local culture and are fluent in Spanish, it's not advisable to go out after dark in these places.
@@derhergeher they probably wanted to see the country. It’s not dangerous but it is when you don’t take the necessary measures to travel there. Like getting a local tour guide that’s certified and staying at a secured resort or hotel. Make sure to never look so fancy if you want to go out of the safety place bc you’ll get robbed or kidnapped.
@@kalina7965 That even goes for the United States, too. Henry Rollins had a friend who was murdered just because somebody parked a fancy car on their street, so people thought that he was rich.
I don’t know why she didn’t ask to change rooms after the front desk alerted her to his creepiness. Yes, he had a master key but if she had moved he’d have to find out what room she was in again.
Story 1: Girl what is ur damage?! A stranger gonna take ur bags to ur room-he don’t work for the hotel and he knows ur alone? Now he knows ur room number. Sue the hotel? No baby-sue ur mama for raising u so dumb.
I’m Mexican, I know that their are some areas of Mexico that are so unsafe, I’m glad that the couple were able to escape from those sick people twice in a row
Shouldn’t have happened twice. After the first escape, they should’ve learned not stray from the path or follow a random stranger smh. They were very stupid
Literally story 3 was one of the most dumbest scary traveling stories I ever heard. Like how can you leave from the resort probably knowing the dangers outside of it. Plus even telling those guys that you “ No hablo español” make it 10x worse, make your a better target. First learn some Spanish or other languages when traveling to a foreign country and stay where it’s safe!!
Story 1 Traveling alone is not recommended, but if you do, make it seem like you’re not alone. Also, always use the 2nd lock on your door Story 2 Geez I would’ve asked to move right away. Shit’s scary af! Story 3 Ok idk why the hell you’d go to the same place where you almost got robbed or even killed the very next day. And you even followed some random man on the 2nd day. Some people need safety education really badly it seems. Remember: The scariest stories are ones where the protagonist isn’t being dumb
Story two really got me. You never truly know who you’ll run into while traveling or during your day to day life. It’s why I’m ALWAYS cautious around strangers and keep conversation at a minimum. You truly never know.
I thought all hotel room doors have a second lock, like a chain.. I always engage both locks. If someone do get a master key somehow ... the second security feature would stop them from entering. This person should've immediately requested another room when the hotel clerk told him /her of their fears.
You can engage the second lock when in the room, but it sounds like this creep may have entered while she was out of the room and waited in a closet or something. She couldn’t engage it while out of the room. I always use those locks when in the room and put a suitcase or something by the door so it will fall over if the door is partially opened and hopefully wake me up.
@@cflyin8 I believe the story said the man had a master key that allowed him access, so if the secondary security feature was activated it would have kept him out. The guest should have filed charges against the hotel for their lax security that allowed the man to somehow obtain a master key.
@@TopoGigio555 Did you not read the part of Shaun's comment where they said the guy likely entered her hotel room while she was out (and therefore unable to engage the secondary chain/bolt lock) and hid in waiting for her? Listening and reading comprehension on average is terrible, judging by the comments on this video (not just yours).
I just stayed at a hotel in gatlinburg and the hotel did not have 2 locks. Only the one electronic key lock. Hated it but I was only there one night and left early The next morning
As somebody who was born in Bulgaria, and adopted from there this episode will go down as one of my favorites. It’s not often Bulgaria gets a mention on a popular RU-vid channel. Thank you!! All of the girls in these stories were incredibly lucky. The luckiest of them all were the 2 girls who went to Mexico.
That second story for real is one of the most horrifying ones I’ve ever heard.. I totally understand that the woman didn’t want to see a plane for a long time, god.
My wife and I just had our honeymoon in the Tulum and Playa del Carmen area of Mexico. Had our transportation to the resort and back already booked. Only left the resort to do one excursion and stayed with the tour group the whole time. Never felt we were in danger. Do not try and rent a car and go off on your own.
People visit the worst places in countries and then go out on their own, its uncanny. Go to La Paz Mexico, you can freely walk the streets and visit all the lovely restaurants both downtown and by the Malecon
Press charges on the hotel? What charges does she think she could press? The hotel didn't break into her room. The hotel didn't tell her to let some strange man take her bags to her room. The hotel staff even warned her about the guy. Can't imagine what crime she thinks she could charge the hotel with.
Because a random person on the street should not be able to get access to a master key. They should be locked up so they don't fall into the wrong hands. She could absolutely press charges it's called criminal negligence
Just a Karen looking to play Queen Victim. Hotel even refunded her stay and moved her to a new room and cooperated with the police. Probably some spoiled brat who can travel whenever she wants on daddy’s money and assumed every man she sees is there so serve her/carry her bags.
For the master key. It is the Hotel's responsibility to keep their customers safe and not allow strangers into their room. Allowing a master key to get into the wrong hands is a big no no. I used to work in Hospitality. They really messed up there, though she wasn't very smart for showing someone where her room was either.
Haven’t seen this comment yet, so here goes. Rank the boneheadedness of the people in each story from most to least. For me: 1. Story 3 - Listen to locals, don’t stray too far away, don’t stop for murderers, don’t follow sketchy people into the jungle 2. Story 1 - Don’t lead a random stranger to your room, request new room after housekeeping incident, maybe change hotels, always lock deadbolt 3. Story 2 - Let a flight attendant know about the disturbing activity and try to change seats, take the note to the police and file a report
Not all doors have deadbolt. It depends entirely on the hotel. Also if the creep had a Master Key, then he'd just as easily find out her new room number if she had changed rooms.
@@iamme25yago23 He already knew which room she was staying in and what her name is. Since he had access to the Master Key, he likely had access to the Hotel Roster and could find her easily (even if she had changed rooms).
Lol, the girl in the first story wanting to press charges on the hotel, when she was the one who accepted that weird guy's offer to take her baggage up to her room GET OUT she's delusional
@@chanslefteyebruh6167 maybe she should have used the fuckin deadbolt it's really not the hotels fault and if she pressed charges she probably would have gotten an innocent hotel worker fired
@@usernamepassword236 yea prolly fair enough. But she didnt tho, so. Still think hotel shouldve had better security? It is their job. It shouldnt have gotten to the point of her having to deadbolt the door.
@@chanslefteyebruh6167 it doesn't matter you should deadbolt the door if something weird happened or not she should have taken security into her own hands
Despite these people having poor judgement and brains, it is miraculous that they're still alive to tell the tale for their stories here. As usual, Mr Nightmare always come through with his content.
Story 1 is a Karen !! how you gonna press charges on the hotel if they didn’t do nun !!!! The girl from the earlier shift even warned her to be careful wtf
Story 1: You never go alone, cause you never know what could happen in places your not familiar with, even the people. Story 2: I would've changed seats as soon as possible, if your already getting a bad feeling about someone, listen to it. Story 3: Never follow anyone you don't know at all, and stay on the areas that are meant to be safe, cause everywhere is dangerous, and that couple were extremely lucky to survive the encounter.
Story 3: I'm a first-generation mexican-american (parents born in Mexico, I was born in the US), and even my parents will admit Mexico is f-ing dangerous for anyone, especially tourists. Last few times I've travelled to Mexico, all of my extended family has been careful to escort me everywhere I go (especially since one of my cousins was abducted and released a couple of years ago because the assailants knew they could hold him ransom for "American dollars"). My honest advice for any tourist trips to mexico is to stay within safe areas and always have friends (that are ready and willing to fight) nearby. I'm sad to say that is the sorry state of things in a country so plentiful with natural beauty, but I really recommend anyone who travels to mexico to be aware of the danger inherent in their trip.
Not to be a dick but the people in the third story come off as pretty moronic and very naive, they were warned not too travel far from the resort, they do, they narrowly escape possible death, then they go back out again, didn't bother to learn the native language and make it very obvious they're tourists, blindly trust and follow some random transient in the middle of the fucking jungle. Narrowly escaping death for a second time. 🤦I just can't help but smh and think these people not be traveling
It is so so sad that a beautiful place like Mexico gets way less tourism than it should because of a gangs and other related risks... I myself have seen countless news stories recently about how even places like Cancun might not be all that safe anymore, and innocent pedestrians have died in the crossfire of gang turf wars while on vacation... What a shame...
I prefer staycations. No crazy lineups, no airport hassles, delays, rerouting, unruly passengers, babies crying and the slight chance of the plane crashing. Yep, just me and my beer and my pool and hot tub and some nice ladies in them with me is all I need. So long suckers!!!
Man, the scariest thing that happened to me while travelling was catching diarrhoea... except for maybe that one guy who tried to sell me some ancient looking puzzle box. He kept saying something about "unlocking pleasures beyond my wildest imagination."
As someone from Mexico, people that travel to central and South America should never follow strangers and stick to touristy areas for they are much safer for people who don’t know the area. And never go on some dirt road that you don’t know for sure where it leads to.
@@allisonmaldonado3705 We take vacations to have a good time, not walk on eggshells to appease the snowflakes. Even the level-headed locals would say stay within the confines of a certain perimeter and to never stray from the path.
i’m sorry but that last story was just so stupid on the guy and his girlfriend they say mexico is dangerous and with their 1 brain cell go with a random guy they meet on the trail 💀
That’s the thing about vacations in Mexico, Central and South America. Once you stray from the perceived safety of the resorts and tourist areas a lot of bad stuff can happen. My dad, who works at Ford, knows a guy who traveled for business to Mexico, got abducted, stripped of all his clothes and belongings, and nearly killed.
Yep, as someone who comes from a Central American country it's better for visitors to just stick to the more tourist-y areas while still exercising some precaution because pickpockets aren't unheard of even in tourist destinations, but at least the chances of someone escalating and trying to hurt you minimizes a lot when you stay within those areas. I really do believe that if someone wants to explore outside the touristy places that they have a local chaperone such as a local friend or someone like that that can help them navigate the country more safely, since they'd know what areas to stay completely clear of.
Now this is why I do not go to touristic places everyone always and I say always go to typical beaches like cancun and other tourists resorts but not me I stay away from those areas because those places are the most targets..folks know young people will flock there, for spring break or other reasons so yes its much more dangerous.
My best friend, her boyfriend, another friend and I had a really bad experience in Tulum as well. We were walking back to our Airbnb after dinner, through an area we had walked through many times before, when we noticed it was a little darker on the street than we remembered. Moments after my friend commented on it, 8-10 men with machetes came out of the darkness and surrounded us. They beat my friend’s boyfriend to the ground so badly that a puddle of blood was forming around his mouth in the dirt and he was convulsing. My best friend was also kicked to the ground and beaten with the blunt ends of machetes while they tried to get her buckled fanny pack off of her. My other friend and I had given up our bags immediately and were yelling that we had nothing else, but they still continued to swing machetes at our stomachs, forcing us to jump backwards. After they had all of our belongings, they eventually scattered into the night. We were able to flag down a military truck and then some police, all of which were extremely reluctant to help. We had to take my friend’s boyfriend to the emergency room, and thankfully he made it through, although badly beaten with a severe concussion. I’ve traveled extensively alone, 30 countries so far, and this was the most traumatic experience I’ve been through. And it happened in a group. Be careful alone or with people, you never know what people are willing to do. I don’t think I’ll be going back to Tulum.
Mr Nightmare has certainly gone a very long way. Travelling alone can be quite dangerous, as well as even if you’re travelling with a companion on board. You’ll never be too sure that no one will dare harm you in the worst possible way.
@I am me • 25y ago What are you talking about? I'm a big fan of this channel and Mr Nightmare. I was commenting on the original posters "Mr Nightmare has certainly gone a very long way." These stories aren't about him. He's narrating other people's stories. I have no idea if they are true or not. I enjoy them.
Being really familiar with the Tulum area, do not drive on random dirt roads in that area. Either join tour groups, trusted private transportation or if you drive stay in well traveled area and do research on safe areas. Mexico is beautiful and safe if you know where to go, like most large cities in the states.
I've had friends from Mexico who talk about how it's gotten a lot less safe in recent years, but you know what? I could say the same thing about a lot of places in the United States, too. Especially if you are obviously foreign and look as though you have money.
@@paulastiles5507 It's extremely unsafe for us as Mexicans, it's a tiny bit safer for tourists because y'all are one of our primary incomes, but... it's just a tiny bit.
@@paulastiles5507 This story, at least, isn't even that- just do your research and don't be an idiot and go into obviously unsafe areas. Holds true no matter where you live.
Thanks for posting this! That main character in the first story should've gotten a room change (and potentially that room blocked off for the night) after that front desk clerk brought up her concerns over that man.
I don't understand why in the first story she would want to press charges against the hotel.... they did their best and even the lady at the front desk warned her about the man. She was the dumbass that decided to accept help from a STRANGER regardless of whether or not he was staying at the hotel to help her with her bags TO HER ROOM when she could have asked staff for assistance... If he wasn't part of the hotel staff, she shouldn't have done that but maybe that's just me. No shame or hate towards her of course, and I am glad she managed to get out of that situation. I guess one thing I can think of that can warrant her to press charges against the hotel is because the person managed to steal the master key in order to get into her room which in that case, fair enough. Perhaps they could have stored it in a safer place that's harder for a person to steal. I'm all for being kind to people, we need more of it in this world but it's because of situations like these that we end up not trusting people around us. Remember people, it's OKAY TO SAY NO if you don't feel comfortable or simply if you don't want to :)
IKR? I always do - even during the day. I can't imagine going to sleep in a hotel room without having the deadbolt engaged. Especially if she is used to traveling alone. That's why I wonder if some of these stories are true. Not only didn't she do that, but someone who frequently travels alone would usually be wise enough not to tell a complete stranger their room number. Did she even check in at the beginning of the story? Now that I think of it, she showed him the room, took a nap, then found out he wasn't staying there from the desk clerk. How did she get into her room without a key? You can't just walk into a hotel and go straight to your room without checking in because they have to set the electronic key for you upon check in. I missed that before. BS story detected.
@@AccidentallyOnPurpose agreeable stay away from resorts go to Querétaro instead 😎 do not to go resorts knowing folks will be watching knowing people flock there so much.
The stupidity of the couple in story 3 … You never travel off a resort . It always ends in a horror story . Honestly lucky they weren’t killed . Then to follow a stranger willingly after the first experience. Genuinely one of those survival of the fittest thing and I’m shocked the couple hasn’t been killed somehow in every day life .
Idk why #3 made me laugh cuz it’s so true. Americans don’t go to real Cancun or real Tulum lol. Driving around somewhere you don’t know the language or area seems wild to me.
I have literally never been this early to a Mr.Nightmare video, just wanna say, I love your content, especially when it’s storming like it is tonight, just gives off such creepy vibes, and scares me right to sleep, I hope everyone enjoys there night. Thank you Mr.Nightmare for the content, been here since day one, and I’ll continue to until you stop🖤
Story 1... She thinks she should have sued the hotel? She should take responsibility for her own actions! She lead him to her room. As soon as the front desk told her to stay away from the man, she should have switched rooms.
@themamabearlife, speaking of take responsibility, why didn't the hotel employees kick the strange man off the premises? Why did they let him stay around. *How did* he obtain the master key? I find it *hilarious* that everyone is blaming the woman, but no one is holding the hotel staff accountable for their stupidity as well.
Story 1. "I should have pressed charges on the hotel." Exactly criminal offense did the hotel commit? "Yes officer, I need to blame someone other than myself for leading some stranger to my hotel room for no reason can you arrest the hotel staff please? Otherwise I will end up forced to have a moment of self reflection."
Thats what i was thinking, the hotel was nice enough to help her when she needed and asked. Reimbursed her. Gave her a new room. They sounded so nice. They didnt do anything. It was her fault for trusting and giving the man the benefit of the doubt. And still hoped he was a good guy.
@@Rayz9989 1. She didn't even engage all the safety measures in the room, all doors have a second latch by law. 2. That's not a criminal offence so there's nothing to charge. 3. Also it would be one hell of a lawsuit to try to win if she wanted to sue them seeing she didn't use provided safety measures.
Why don't tourists understand that if you are traveling to another country, you do not go wondering around without having someone you trust and that in mostly cases you stay at the tourist resorts. Safety lesson number one smh
Let me tell you all, as a person with family in Mexico, NEVER EVER leave the resort for any reason. The Cartels, gangs, and swindlers are bad. Heres a story, my great uncle was executed in Mexico City to make an example to the local neighborhood. Him and 3 others. Another man, and his wife and daughter. Its a scary place down there.
If a stranger came up to me in a hotel and asked where I'm from, how long I'm staying and if he could bring my bags to my room, I would know instantly that something is off. People need to be more vigilant and self aware.
I honestly can’t believe the people in the first and third story, so she did not found it odd that some man was insistent in helping her bring her bags to her room, dismissed the very logical warning from the front desk and refuse to change rooms when they strongly recommend it? and the couple, after getting ambushed by three thugs that mysteriously came out of the woods, they decide to follow some stranger that is offering to be their guide for no reason and taking the time to see if he looked like one of thugs that tried to rob them
Story 1: Frontdesk be like, yeah I saw a creepy man outside and now he knows where you are staying in our hotel. Good luck though. Story 2: Not comfortable with your seatmate in the plane cause he talks about skinning people alive? Cool. next stop: Istanbul. Enjoy your flight! Story 3: "Dont go too far, these parts here in Mexico are a bit peligroso." Got it,. Oooh look at that honey, a secluded dirt road in the middle of the jungle! Lets go!
Hope you had a good thanksgiving despite being ill, hope ur recovering well and i will take the opportunity to say new to your channel, but lovin it and watching past vids (I know so 80s right) at such a rate as you've got a brilliant re-storytelling voice and do these people's true experiences justice. Happy Post thanksgiving from the UK, Mr Nightmare.
“I probably should’ve pressed charges on the hotel.” What? It seems like they did everything right, just sounds like an entitled rich traveler. I’m sorry what happened to her, but it’s not the hotel’s fault
@@JJISCRAZY it said he was able to access a master key and thats how he was able to unlock her door. No one who isnt staff shouldnt even know/even be able to access a masterkey, it is the hotels fault. The only person who did anything right was the lady who warned her. They probably only reimburses her so she wouldnt press charges
@@bingobongo8701how tho? From where? He shouldn’t have been able to steal it. The hotel is responsible for keeping the Master keys out of hands of tourists.
"I'm a solo traveler because my friends are too busy working or being too poor to go with me (I would never help pay for them to come along perish the thought, so when I got to my hotel and talked to a stranger, I gave him my name, age, how long I'd stay, and how far away I am from my home state and showed him my hotel room #" 😇 🥴
Why would she press charges on the hotel? It was her mistake to allow a stranger to follow her to her room. For a big solo traveler, she doesn't seem to know common sense safety while traveling alone.
4:56 Why would you want to press charges against the hotel? They seemed nothing but nice, understanding and accommodating to you, why would you want to ruin a business for, it’s not their fault some psycho targeted you but they took the situation seriously and done everything right to help you when it happened, am I missing something or?
I didn't get it either! I mean the woman at the front desk even warned her which is really commendable since nothing even happened by then, yet she was responsible enough to alert her. Not many staffs would have done that especially in a busy hotel where hundreds of people are in and out. Not sure why she wanted to sue them.
@@humayrafaizah1428 Exactly! I’m glad you agree with me, it makes me feel some type of way about her like ew really that’s how you would’ve thanked the people who helped you & the receptionist who looked out for you before anything had even happened? What a stuck up bitch, she shouldn’t have been so stupid to lead a stranger to her room and tell him she’s travelling alone the idiot.
@@RihannaBGR She did sound like a stuck up sorry to say. "My friends don't travel this much since most of them cannot afford to travel so frequently" I mean who talks like that? 🙄🙄🙄
Have only listened to story 1 so far. Who would ever let some strange guy carry their luggage to their room? Someone who definitely should NOT be traveling alone, that's for sure.
Wow, you are already brave enough to fly by yourself in my age. I wasn't even brave enough to take the train without my parents even for 1 stop till I started going to high school
Story 2: Had nothing to do with Bulgaria's safety and regulations. I feel much of it could have been avoided if you just asked to be moved to another seat and maybe inform a flight attendant of his comments. They could have arrested him right at the plane after landing, not after comminuting crimes. Sometimes people get mad, but don't take any action to change anything.
So the man is turkish, in my opinion Turkey is way more dangerous than Bulgaria. But unfortunately things like that can happen anywhere in the world. The girl in the second story was the smartest.
Ok, not even 2 minutes in and I can tell you, I’ve worked at a hotel front desk for almost 4 years. I’ve seen enough of how people behave in lobbies. Rando dude who doesn’t work there asking to take your bags up to your room is automatically sus as hell. Idc how nice he was.
Funny quick story. Watching this video in my apartment gym at night alone and a Amazon worker knocked on the window in the pitch black and made me jump so bad! Right at the end of the second story 😂. Told him sorry when letting him in that I was just caught off guard.
yes, it was absolutely sensible for them to be so negligent with security that some maniac out there now has the key that unlocks every room in their building. totally not their fault lmao.
The first story probably could've been avoided had the woman asked the receptionist to switch her room. I'm surprised neither of them thought to do that. You have to be careful, especially if you are a woman traveling alone. There are nutcases everywhere and human trafficking is at an all time high. I'm naturally paranoid and untrusting of others and it's probably saved my ass a few times.
