The fact that this guy STILL has money to carry out the SAME crimes is just insane
He doesn’t. He’s broke and this is never gonna happen. Anyone can say they’re gonna do something, doesn’t mean it’s gonna happen.
@@mutedmutiny9542 he'll probably try to scam his brother for some money
Fyre Festival II: Lord of the Flies edition.
I'm going to take Titanic ll there.
@@Woozlewuzzleable I'm going to take that new Hindenburg there.
I approve of this stupidity and look forward to the next set of documentaries!
Anyone who attends Fyre Festival 2.0 deserves anything and everything that happens to them.
Anybody that buys tickets really deserves to get ripped off.
Sounds like something George Santos would promote.
He'll be the GOP Presidential nominee in 2028
But he didn't mention prayers, guns, or woke one time.
All the crooks these days are democrats
The part when Cenk said they had to pay 12k to get put in a tent and get a cheese sandwich was hilarious.😂🤣🤣
That’s 100% true. That’s EXACTLY what they got. A tent and a cheese sandwich.
The funny part is that sounds just like Coachella this weekend.
If at first you don't succeed, crime, crime again.😐
Thats the trump university motto.
The local community and businesses he conned and stole money / resources from are still suffering the impact. He shouldn't be allowed to run a flea market stall, let alone a festival
He also defrauded the local workers.
for compare/contrast, please see the Qatar World Cup. The wealthy got what they wanted, hundreds of workers DIED, while being paid little to nothing, while living in appalling conditions, underfed, basically forced slave labor....and the people who organized the event had no legal repercussions, because the wealthy got their show.
People will sign up because they won't believe he'll pull the same scam twice.
Anyone that buys into that deserves whatever they get.
2017-Let’s fool Millenials
2023- Let’s fool Gen-Z
If “double down” was a person
I can't wait to sail on the Titanic II
If you go to Fyre festival II, you have rocks in your head.
If at first you don't succeed at failure, try, try again.
Someone will fall for it, unfortunately.
Him and George Santos should collaborate on something, what could go wrong?
The George Santos Experience is a headline act.
This scam really sounds like a paradise for Gen-Z kids, partying in a exclusive Island, Private jets, gourmet food and partying with models. I am sure a lot of the tiktokers and influencers will have fun at Fyre Festival 2.
Sometimes, You have to blame the victims.
The locals who worked their asses off and didn't get paid definitely do *not* deserve to get blamed.
He makes Ticketmaster seem honest.
The people who give him money deserve every moment of this scam. Looking forward to an update on this story. 😂
Those documentaries on the first one were hilarious. Bet they never thought they'd get to do a Pt2.
That guy only did 4 years for wire fraud. I wonder where he buried all the money.
Swindle 26 million dollars and only get 6 years in prison is such a PATHETIC JOKE !!!!
You know what's really crazy though? Sandals resort is within walking distance of the Fyre festival. All he had to do is broker suites there for them.
The problem was... he planned the festival during one of the biggest annual events on the island, so all of the hotels were booked. That's the only reason he needed the tents in the first place.
@@tj445 also, one of the problems was he didn’t listen to anyone that tried to help him make sense of it all. In one of the documentaries I saw. One person had suggested he dock a cruise ship off of the island. Then people could be ferried back and forth to the days events.
@@tj445 I didn't know that.
Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me. Anyone who attends should be left to rot there if the whole thing goes to shit again.
Fyre Festival II: Enter The Dumpster
"Fool me once, shame on... shame on you. Fool me -- you can't get fooled again."
Can’t wait for Prison 2 sequel! 😂
To be fair, anyone that falls into this scheme DESERVES being scammed!
Lol totally
Exclusive models 😅
Amen. The reason there are so many con artists and grifters is that there are so many people willing to be conned and grifted.
He sat in jail 6 WHOLE YEARS and couldn't think of anything else to do. I see getting an actual job was not an option. No new ideas....nothing. He sat in jail 6 WHOLE YEARS and STILL doesn't have a name for his new festival. He hadn't even come up with a good reason to hold the festival again. Nothing. Jail failed him. He's not rehabilitated. 6 WHOLE YEARS he was just taking up space.
I won’t believe it till Ja Rule signs onboard. 😂
😆
Fun fact. Billy McFarland and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino were buds in prison.
So is he now going to charge $28,000 per ticket for "festival 2" t o pay back the first group of suckers?
😂😂😂
Maybe he could organize a successful kegger first and see how that goes.
His probation conditions should prevent him from ever being able to hold an event like this again.
He can't be the head of it which is why he got that Frank dude.
Trump will probably be really jealous hearing this guy is considered the ultimate con man
I feel Trump can never be the ultimate con man, if you start with 400 million dollars inheritance. (Probably more, because of tax fraud) The ultimate con man starts out with nothing and cons his (or her) way to a fortune.
Nah the big guy and his 10% is the real conman
Netflix is paying for a sequel
“It’s not fraud, it’s false advertising”-Ja Rule
ok Cenk, you cracked me up with " hey you pay 12k $ for 5 star meals, hangout with supermodels, instead you get a tent and cheese sandwich, go for it hoss " hahhahaha thats funny man
There's an old saying in Tennessee - I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee - that says, fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again.
Should apply to some recently indicted Cheeto guy who did a terrible job running our country.
The documentaries were amazing!! So bad its good!! Cannot believe he is doing it AGAIN!
Fool them once... shame on you. Fool them twice... *shame on them!*
He is on probation. He has a probation officer who should be informed of this and violating him. Why is the probation department allowing him to do the same crime again and not violating him like they would with any other person on probation? One of the reasons you are put on probation is for the state to monitor you so you do not commit the same crime again. We should be interviewing his probation officer and the DOIC as to why they would not throw hjim back in prison for the rest of his probation for an obvious violation.
He still hasn't paid the locals for all their work!!!
He wants to prove he's still going to do something incredible...He picked the word very carefully
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result. 🙄
Grift con is happening! Send me money for tickets, asap, if you want access to the gold level.
Fool us once, shame on him but if he gets to fool people again, then it's shame on those people
Fyre Festival II - This time it won’t burn, just smolder.
The Rock Johnson turns to you with his eyebrows raised
I would piss myself laughing if it was just a repeat of the 1st one🤣🤣🤣
LOLOLOL. Me too - but the odds of that happening are waaay better than even!
God I hope Fyre Festival 2 happens, and I really, really hope it's yet another scam. Mind you, I don't want anyone to get stranded and end up getting hurt or whatever, but I... I just really wanna laugh, man. Please just let this be another scam so I can laugh at this all over again. I need to see who signs up, I need it. Please, lord and savior Billy McFarland, please scam them all over again. 🙏
Anyone who falls for that deserves to get hurt or stranded.
Crazy how the judge never made so he could never host an event ever again.
I cannot wait for internet historian to cover this 😂
How was that 6 years ago already?
I feel bad for those influencers, etc., butttt you could smell the stink from 1000 miles away!
My brother and I were talking about this last night. His buddies in the EDM community immediately spread the word not to touch it. They said look at those coordinates, look at that information, there’s no way this is happening! Yikes
I got a bridge on that island I need to sell ya
Looking forward to Internet Historian and his report about failure of Fire II. Hell yea.
Lmao the parole board is not going to approve this form of income lol it’s probably prohibited in his parole stipulations hahaha
Hopefully he'll be allowed to organize another scam and we'll get to see another documentary on stupid rich people who fall for it.
I'm sure investors will be throwing money at him to get in on his next grift.
Wouldn't this be a violation of his probation? Doesn't he have to pay some kind of restitution to previous investors?
They have no shame no shame
Anyone who puts money into this deserves to lose it.
If you go down there and it doesn’t work out this time, it’s your fault.
How is it legal to immediately go back and do what got you in prison in the first place? I feel like if you're convicted of spitting in food while working in the service industry you should be blacklisted from the service industry. If you host a fake/extremely poorly organized festival that defrauds people, I feel like you shouldn't be allowed to be involved with festivals anymore ...
You ask a question I'm very interested in. The truth is that someone with a lifelong failing will not recover. A drug addict: unless you lock them up for life no matter what you do they will go right back to it the second they can. With sex offenders you can keep them in jail until they are so old they can't do anything without breaking a hip.
If Fyre Festival II is a fraud he will go straight back to prison. For longer this time. It's just about all we can do with hardened criminals.
Anyone who attends the second time deserves whatever shitshow that happens
He gives Elizabeth Holmes vibes. And we all know how that played out….
Come on, Netflix! Time to ramp up the documentary for Fyre 2.
This is the decade of shameless grifters.
"I'll take 'Sequels To Things That Never Happened' for 500, thanks Alex"
Fool me once......
😆
Doing the same thing over again and expecting different results is the definition of insanity. This includes buying a ticket to this shitshow.
The type of people that go to these kind of festivals are not exactly the smartest bunch, so I wouldn't put it passed them to get scammed again.
I was just stunned a bunch of people would pay 12K to see Blink 182.
The most hilarious media spectacle in recent memory gets MORE hilarious by the minute
Reminds me of the girl who was put on house arrest for scamming rich people into thinking she was an wealthy socialite, only for her to turn around and make her NYC apartment one the most exclusive parties in the city, with rich people flocking to try and get in. She made her house arrest a campy theme for the party and now you can argue she really is a socialite.
I'm not sure that is true. Her name was Anna and she was a con artist. She had no money of her own so I doubt she remained in a luxury apartment.
pay people back, then it should be free to the people.
Fyre Festival. Save yourself the misery and just burn a few thousand dollars in your backyard one night!🤣
Ready to get bamboozled again.
"My only crime is that I TRIED too hard!" Lolololol mah dude, wtf
Investors doubted him? yet they invested, wtf.
And he did fail! lol
If you get fooled twice, it's on you.
tickets as NFTs i’m guessing
For anyone that falls for this a second time deserves to get scammed (this is not including people that have legit numerological developmental concerns that prohibit them from making logical decisions).
Oh and they will. That's how stupid people are.
Wasn't he also banned from doing this sort of thing again?
One thing is for sure is that the people who went to the original fyre festival will not show up for the 2nd fyre festival.
This year it'll be GRILLED cheese sandwitches. See, all fixed
He's got the makings of a successful republican politician
He apparently understands there's no such things as bad publicity. We're sure to hear about everything he goes on to do.
Fyre Festival 2 - Dumpster Fyre!
Lmaooooo, so basically he didn't learn anything from the last time. Who in their right mind would sign up for this again? lol
Many people. there's a sucker born every minute
He's running the same exact scam to pay his restitution.
What a genius. 😹
He should run for Congress fit right in
Here Billy, let me help you out. I'll give you the catch phrase for free: Fyre Festival II, Feel The Burn. Again.
Now, put aside the morality and the fraud, would you give up 6 years of freedom for 26 million dollars? What happened to all of the money? Now he is going to pay everyone back? Sure.
Wait! Wasn’t this the cheese sandwich 🥪 gourmet meal party where you were told not to bring money?
