Losing two sons in such a way, brings tears. These guys looked like kindred spirits, living the life. Condolences to family and friends.
Such a tragic loss.. RIP guys.😢❤❤❤
They lost their lives cuz they airheads who tried to party and their drug deal went south. It had nothing to do w/a robbery -- that`s a BS explanation made up to hide the fact that these richboys liked to party and do drugs.
At least they all went together 😔😔
انا حزينة جدآ جدآ عليهم كانوا صغار جدآ جدآ مؤسف 💔💔💔
This is sickening.
It`s just the consequence of being stupid and trying to score white powders from sketchy peeps -- it had NOTHING to do with any carjacking. But no loss, yuppie airheads are a dime a dozen
The government should be ashamed.
It's life, its like camping out in a secluded gang infested neighborhood. what does a person of average intelligence expect?
I really don’t know how these parents are strong enough to go through this. You’ve got to know the child you raised and knew from birth for 30 or so years is just gone, wiped out, so many memories, moments,everything. Just gone. 😢
Once they go home they will fall apart again....then the difficult part begins when they have to live everyday with the constant heartbreak and pain day after day and year after year and the pain never gets any easier
😢💙💙
Sending Love and Prayers ❤️ 🙏❤
I can’t even imagine their parents pain :( Such handsome men in their prime losing their lives…the story is horrifying.
That's the word I've been looking for, just Horrifying 😭
@@bellsca1917 They were ROBBED of their lives, their children! A family. This story is tragic
Their parents should have warned them to the dangers in this world .
@@adamblack6867 wow
This is so incredibly sad. Australians often forget how fucked up the rest of the world is. My condolences to the family.
as an ex-pat who lives in OB, I am so sorry for your loss * my sons quit going down south to surf about 4yrs ago after being shaken down by Federales
Federales lol
@@enzop2835 Policía Federal Preventiva, hope that helps ya
They quit school to in the U.S? 😂😂😂
These brothers must have a very strong bond. They enjoyed their lives together and departed together. I feel so sad for their parents as I can see them in my parents' shoes when my brother was gone.
I don't think they have any other siblings either......Losing one of your kids is one thing but if they have siblings then the parents try to go on, seeing their other grown children then marry and have grandchildren.....These guys has no children or siblings and so there are no future generations of this family......That would be the hardest part.
Hey were are you from ? sounds to me that all your sadness is for the two Australian boys how about the American one that is also dead.
Do not go to Mexico period.
basically
It’s not Mexico in general but to places no one goes. I live in Mexico and do not travel by car. Always by plane and stay in places where the locals live.
Just don’t be scared and you’ll be alright
Wrong narrative. Period. Constant wrong way drivers, senseless homeless attacks, dui murders. Uber assault killings, school shootings, church shootings, concert massacres, the list goes onnnn and onnnn in the lovely USA🤷🏻♂️
@@Jason21012these poor guys weren’t scared and look at what happened
Just horrible. I am sorry for your loss. What beautiful men. Over car parts. Sick, vile criminals.
Oh god, this hits home massively.
I myself was an Australian backpacker living in Ocean Beach between 2002 - 2004. First living in the OB Hostel, then up in an apartment in Lotus Street with a tonne of other Aussies, Kiwis, Brits, Spaniards etc.
OB was my local surf break and I used to take weekend surf trips down between Rosarito and Ensenada just like these boys did.
Now 20 years later and the father of two young kids myself, my heart just goes out to all these families.
You shouldn’t have to bury your kids because of a surf trip.
I stayed at OB hostel! Back in 2010. Oh the memories…I ended up getting a motel apartment opposite the crystal pier in PB for a while. Met so many of the surf community.
Bloody hell tho, how bad is it there?
You should teach your kids to not try n buy drugs off sketchy peeps u don`t know and I mention this because this situation was NOT an attempted robbery as the yuppie family want you to believe. All these guys were airhead surfers who like 2 party and do lines and the fact that their family tries to hide this is pretty pathetic.
When your stupid, the consequences are fatal. I`ve been to Mexico twice, once to Mexico City and another time to Isla de Mujeres and since I knew the language, locals did`nt see me as an arrogant tourist.
@@emilioaymat5651 source?
You're on drugs dickhead
This makes me SO ANGRY! I hate this for those families and friends! Omg I can’t even imagine.
I feel the same way. This story sickens me. I will NEVER visit Mexico until they clean up their serious crime issues including targeting tourists.
@@firenze5555 Those same issues happen here. Go try vacation in the bad parts of Detroit or in NYC. It`s no different. Are ya gonna move outta the US because of the violence of certain cities? No? Well, it`s the same in Mexico where not all places have crime although many do, one just has to do the research and these guys were killed for being airheads trying to score white powder from sketchy peeps. It had NOTHING to do with it being a carjacking--that is a false narrative pushed by their yuppie families that don`t want the world to know they died being druggies tryin` 2 score.
#TellLikeItIs!
Prayers for you all. I'm heartbroken.
This is so devastating, senseless and heart wrenching. I was in Mexico when this happened. All I could think about while I sat in the Mexican airport was that these poor parents were having to make the worst trip of their lives. You never think it can happen to you, but it can. It definitely makes me think twice, and I can’t see myself going there again. My prayers are with the families. I hope one day they can find peace in their lives again. I don’t know if it’s possible, but I really hope they can all heal.
This is the biggest tragic event I can think of happening to an innocent group of life loving young people 😢I'm gutted
As a Southern Californian that spent a lot of time in Baja over the last 40+ years this story breaks my heart and infuriates me. I stopped going to Mexico ten years ago because I saw that it was increasingly unsafe. Mind you it was always somewhat unsafe and while fortunately I wasn’t taken advantage of I know many people that were. What’s happened in recent years with cartel violence makes Mexico off limits. I have told my kids to please not go Baja and to be very careful when going to Cabo.
Just crying listening to this gracious and heart-felt Mother.
I find the whole truck theft theory to be suspicious. Why did the killers burn the truck? And what about the rancher that owned the land that surfers often paid a low fee to camp on? His body was found down that well too and he was reported missing a week before the three surfers were reported missing. Was he killed for his vehicle too? Why was the rancher mentioned a couple of times at the point the well and bodies were found and then never again? I think that the killers had connections that the Mexican authorities are very interested in keeping from coming to light.
U represent the 1% buddy. Welcome to the Red Pill world. U know they are being protected on this side of the border as well. 😢
yep totally agree I asked about the 4th victim to here in Australia they only mentioned it once or twice, its weird how not long after they were found arrests are made, I hope the truth eventually comes out for the victims families
Theres a new groyp of people ,,charging fees,,specially if you re coming from another country,,and if you dont want to pay ,,you better just go,,dont get into a problem.,even people from another states in México are coming to this area and finding out about this problem,,where it used to be free to camp,,now thugs are taking over,,
They arent even that poor. They are greedy and sociopathic. Thai people dont do this.
It’s an occult ritual for the zodiac month of Taurus the bull
So utterly horrendous deepest condolences to the families
like they care about some rando on youtube offering "condolences"
Have a heart
I'm so sorry for passing of your son's. They were murdered.
WTF?! What is wrong w/ you?! Fng weirdo
They know they were murdered. You don't have to remind everyone... there's no mystery, south of the border is incredibly dangerous and people still don't understand why the USA needs strict laws with illegals
And it happens because they were stupid. This was NOT an attempted robbery as their yuppie parents want you to think. This was a drug deal gone bad because one of the suspects detained that had a phone of one of the surfers also had a big bag of some kinda white powder and this kinda shit happens to yuppie airheads that go vacation expecting the poor peeps there to bend down to their every need and am sure they did`nt even do any research about the region b4 going there.
well, yeah
Cartels.😮
"Please, live bigger, shine brighter and love harder..in their memory."
Devastating. I cannot imagine going through what these lovely people are dealing with. I pray they are supported and lifted in the days to come. There is no justice for this loss, no matter the outcome. My heart is hurting for this family.
Oh man the sound of the mother talking 😢😓
What`s PATHETIC about those parents is how they HIDE the REAL reason for their deaths, which was that their deaths were a result of a drug deal gone bad because that woman that was detained having 1 of their phones also had a big bag of some kinda white powder and that 1 pic of one of those surfers shows him wearing a shirt of some shrooms so ya know they were druggies that liked to party.
You have no idea what you are talking about mate. I knew Jake he was a doctor in western Australia and was the kindest soul. more likely the cartel were wanting them to transport drugs to the US they refused and were executed. Mexico trying to cover this up
@emilioaymat5651 that is a possibility
que Clase De Madres Trajeron Al Mundo ESOS Asesinos ,
you're gross @@emilioaymat5651
With all respect given here, the title given as "surfers" stereotypes these beautiful young men as, just, surfers. As an Australian, who has a family member who knew one of the Robinson brothers, they were so much more! They were smart, talented, high achieving, good, very decent young men, who did not deserve this. My heart is with their loved ones.
They definitely work for the government didn’t they
Losing two sons at one time is just devastating.
Don't value the cheaper vacations to Mexico over your life please people, there are safer alternatives!
I don't think these guys were poor . One of the brothers was a doctor in Australia. This isn't about a cheap holiday. Pretty sure the older brother was going to live in San Diego
That’s not why people go to Mexico
Heartbreaking for the parrents and friends, my condolences,
I just can't fathom the amount of pains, struggles and anger you go through ! I pray for your comfort and healing as you mourn your beloved sons ! God bless 💔
Our Australian young people love travel and adventure. The biggest danger for surfers in Western Australia are the Great White Sharks. RIP mighty brothers. Surrounding the family with love.
Well, regardless where u are from, if u are a dumbf**k, privileged airhead that expects the world to bend down to you and you try to buy drugs off peeps u don`t know, u might get fuct up. It`s common sense and it blows me away sometimes how these yuppie foos don`t know those kinda things.
And no worries, privileged airheads are a dime a dozen Lol
in mexico its the brown sharks high on meth
Extremely bad decision to go to Mexico...
😢❤very sad watching the parents talking about there sons it broke my heart they were in the prime of there lives enjoying there passion surfing. We are all feeling your pain the whole world is. God bless you both. ❤
This is absolutely heartbreaking. Every time I read this story it makes me cry. I’m so sorry for your tremendous loss. May the all rest in peace.
For family and friends..my deepest condolences.. senseless murders. Rip young men surf the clouds..condolences for the family of man found with them..such tradegy...😢
So very sorry about the terrible loss! Cant imagine the depth of this painful situation!! May God grant comfort to the hearts of the parents and loved ones!!❤
Such a sad situation our condolences to these parents who lost their children ❤
They are pathetic for trying to hide why their kids REALLY died which was because they were tryin` to score drugs off of sketchy people. That carjacking narrative is a total lie.
I met all three at kobey's swapmeet once , we talked about food and surfing .
My deepest condolences to the parents and all that will be affected.
😭😢 So very sad 🌹🌹 strength and blessings to the Mum and Dad. 🙏🏻✝️
This story is just so heartbreaking
I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful, handsome sons and their great friend. This situation is horrific! Prayers for all. 🙏 😢
So sad. Nice young men. They was just trying to enjoy want they like to do. I pray justice for this family. In Jesus Christ name.
It's absolutely amazing that their Mom after such a tragedy finds heart and courage to encourage others to live brighter and love harder.... amazing people! I wish this didn't happen to them!
No parents should have to bury their children 🥺
😔🙏🏽
I burried mine almost 8 months ago...imagine two 😪
You are in my prayers. So sorry for this tragic loss:(
Wouldnt plan a trip to mexico for a million dollars, what a shithole.
I was robbed there and I will never go back. it is a shithole
It's a wonderful country. Don't call the whole place such a horrible word. Things like this happen in the US too.
@@nillyk5671 since I was a kid born in Nicaragua I remember people always telling us not to go to Mexico bec ause is full of criminals. this was in the 70's back in Nicaragua
@@nillyk5671 unfortunately this what we know about Mexicans
@@taniaacosta688how were u robbed?
How horrible. I am so sorry for your loss. 😢
Over a truck. Mexico is a place where some folks will kill you for your last dollar. Most folks I've met in Mexico are very good. But there are some muy mal hombres too. RIP peace fellows you will be missed
Wrong. No auto part thieves would have this level of organization. This was a cartel blunder that is being covered up in both sides of the border. 😢
@@Chuck-yt7iq this is what I believe as well, something doesn't add up, really feel 4 the parents of the 3 guys, there will be a lot of sadness when the 2 guys come home here, losing both sons is uncomrihendable truely shattering, as well for the parents of their American friend, its just horrible
@@jax993 murder rate for americans in Mexico is very low. 1/10th that of the States.
@@Chuck-yt7iqyou’re such a moron the narcos could give two shits about some white surfer guys
In Baja most people are bad news. Even the locals. Ive never been in a place where everyone you encounter was nasty and rude.
I am so sorry for your loses. Hugs😞. What happened is beyond evil and cruel. RIP lovely young men😢🙏🏻
My condolences to the parents. Mexico is such a failure.
A surfer was also stabbed to death in Coffs Harbour, Australia, just last week. Is Australia also "such a failure"?
@@hector5699 Probably stabbed by a Mexican.
Americans have always had nothing but contempt towards us Mexicans. It’s a historic attitude. They can’t help but treat others with arrogance, ignorance and hubris. Mexico isn’t a failure. In any case this tragedy should never have happened and Mexicans are reeling with pain at the loss of people who only wanted to enjoy our beaches and surf in peace. I genuinely hope the people that are responsible are held accountable.
US has an ongoing epidemic of mass killings. Does that also make US a failure?
These parents are PATHETIC for hiding the TRUE reason their kids died. It had NOTHING to do w/a carjacking but was the result of a drug deal gone bad in doing business w/sketchy peeps. The yuppie parents just don`t want the world to think of their kids as the druggie partyers they were.
You Cannot Help But Cry Inside And Out Side When The Waves Of Tears That Carry The Grief The Sadness The Heart Ache And Heart Break And Emotional Sense Of Loss Meet In The Middle It Becomes Such Huge Out Pouring Of Love .... Rest In Peace Big Guys ..... Such A Tragedy That Will Never Be Forgotten All Around The World 🩵🩵🩵🌟🌟🌟
They were such handsome and intelligent young men with "Hollywood" good looks. One was studying to be a doctor. What a tragic waste of life.
😔🇺🇸🙏🏽
Hollywood is evil
You have the most beautiful beaches in california. Why travel to Mexico? Everyone knows how dangerous it is.
Yes. It's literally the same coastline!
Most folks don't.
How dangerous is it really?
As a woman I can say that the women are equally as bad as the men. I was there for 6 months and left disgusted with the culture and it people.
Actually I was thinking about that. There are many reasons according to my research.
1. Its less crowded beaches and baja does have great waves according to surfers Maybe location?
2. Cheaper
3. Cheap drugs not as severe penalties if caught in Mex vs USA.
The most disturbing to me
4. Some of these surfers like the danger aspect of Mexico. Its like a thrill even though there are warnings about certain areas these surfers find it "exciting" I was very confused and perplexed as to why someone would think that's a plus. I read some gave stories of danger yet they still CHOOSE to go back!!! Many said they will still go even after the death of these surfers WTF!! Only thing I can think of is people find it thrilling like climbing mount everest or rock climbing people die all the time doing those crazy things (death wish). My guess is surfers dont just like the thrill of the waves and maybe the geolocation as its "brave" to be in a dangerous location of the country. Its very bizarre and I still dont get it but I was shocked that its intriguing to them or at least thrilling.
This is so sad. RIP to the three young lads. I was in Ensenada when this happened. Shocked people here in Mexico as well as throughout the world.
I have seen the news and I have the impression is all about the two Australian brothers they hardly mention the American guy that is also dead, I have noticed also that the section were you can comment about the two brothers has being blocked too.
I'm so very sorry for this tragedy and your unimaginable loss.
This is so heart breaking, I’m so sorry for the loss of your 2 sons.
Her pain is palpable. It brings tears to my eyes. May they rest in peace. Prayers for all who loved these three beautiful and accomplised men.
This is so awful heartbreaking and infuriating. Prayers to all friends and family 🙏🏽✝️💙
So heartbreaking, no words ❤
So messed up. Sad. Condolences to family and friends.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
prayers for these ppl🙏
To the parents, family and friends of all 3 lost surfers. I did not know these young men personally but I learned to love them from media reports. I have followed the daily news. I am very sorry for this senseless crime. My sincere condolences to you. May they each Rest in Peace eternally. May their memories be a blessing. ❤️💔
makes me absolutely furious😠
Nothing u can do though
So horrific. 🥀😔🙏✝️🛐🌱
🌹💖🌹💖🌹💖
Prayers to the family
Heartbreaking tragedy for the family😢
Thank you for coming to Ocean Beach... a place where your sons and their friend will always be honored...
Condolences and peace.
God bless the family '🎉🎉
So sorry for your loss . ❤
This is certainly terrible but seriously why go to Mexico to surf? Australia has way better beaches and waves. And so does San Diego!! And better food, lodging, hotter women.
God Bless their Beautiful souls. My deepest condolences to the Family.
Oh my heart!❤
México is a no-go these days, too much corruption and blatant disregard for human life.
I know, they don't give a shit about another human being exterminated just like that !
@@dizzman5546 some Mexican saying why you came here? lol no accountability.
sounds just like the United States
@@diggingmystyle It’s egregious in Mexico, though. Here in the USA it’s not as widespread. 😆
So sad :(
DO NOT TRAVEL TO MEXICO.....
Unless you have family there
@@EddyEddy93 yeah i wont even visit my family down there. Its full of cartel activity
@@EddyEddy93 not even if I had family
@@normasolis8808 I understand it’s not for everyone going over there because the media does make it seem like it’s extremely dangerous but I’ve meet some of the most amazing and most kind hearted people out there and now in days that’s rare to find in the United States
Just heartbreaking,,
May the brothers rest in peace and the parents find the strengh to live on and find some kind of solace🙏🏼💔
Thats very very sad, heart breaking, please take my deepest Condolences, RIP
Terrible. So sorry for your loss. Tragic. Mexico needs to get their act together.
To ALL parents!
Yes, Mexico is VERY dangerous.
Condolences.
Wow! Even after all of that, those parents still want the best for humanity. 🦋🙏🏾🦋
So sad! It should never happen that way! It doesn’t make any sense at all!
God this is so senselessly tragic. To be murdered for car parts. What kind of world is this. I truly despair
Had nothing to do with car parts.. they are covering something up.. they aren't telling the real story..
My heart goes out to all the families and friends involved. Love from Alabama. USA
Deep condolences to the families and may those nature loving young men rest in peace. May justice also be served.
💔💔💔 so very heartbreaking for everyone 🇦🇺
I am so sorry for your loss 💔. The parents are so dignified. God love them😥
So sorry for your loss, may you find strength.
People need to stop doing drugs, if there is no demand the trafficking would slow down.
💔
They were in the area the cartel claimed to traffic humans and drugs
Organ trafficking too.
@@robbieogle8622 oh yuk - oh my god - sick c ts
Heartbreaking...
Wished they stayed in San Diego or drove up the coast..
I know! Why couldn't they have gone to Huntington Beach?
Very sad for these boys and their loved ones. I live in Perth. They seem such bright young men with so much goodness great future ahead and so much to live for. Jake was in the same profession as me and could have been one of my students. Never knew them but my heart breaks. The thugs who did that not only took 3 innocent lives but they caused so much pain and suffering for so many people they will pay a high price for the bad deeds
My condolences to the family. RIP to 3 surfers!!
🙏🏻🙏🏻
RIP to these three beautiful men.
I feel so bad for them btw what language are they speaking in?
I have been sick about this story. The evil in the world is taking some of the brightest of us. I hope these men will be honored for eternity. 🙏🏻❤
if this was a robbery why wouldn’t they steal the car too… there is MORE to this story they ain’t saying
of course there is. The US government is never going to reveal the truth either.
The story is the Australian brothers may have naively tried to fight back, it's the Aussie way not to give up...and the accused
may not do things rationally when trying to do a random tyre-jacking after the killings as was a drug dealer...
There's a cover-up going on..
Car can be tracked. Tires not.
Sincerest condolences. They looked & sounded like wonderful people that blessed this Earth for a while. Cut short tragically too soon 😢
God be with in this time of sadness 😢 and always ❤
Terrible.I am so saddened by the terrible waste and loss of wonderful handsome young men. Tragic.
An unbelievable & Cowardly act!
