You’re videos are very powerful brotha! you show the world an a perspective threw that lens an documenting what’s really going on in this world..blessings on top of blessings 414 💪🏼
Go to Memphis
Hey Tommy, send me that T-shirt you promised me, and I even told you that you were going to forget about it. So stand on your word bro.
Best way to put my reply to this if anybody reads it. This shows tommy g's partake on citizens and criminals.
I’ve been here since your beginning with the pranks. So proud of your development and where you have taken this channel and yourself tommy. This brought tears to my eyes.
I love how Tommy does better reporting than actual news companies
They charge you $10k and then they leave you stranded in the desert
Facts
Tommy doesn’t have a vested political interest like mainstream media.
It’s illegal if you support this shit move to Mexico
No filter here
This is real guerilla journalism. Show the footage, let the people being filmed talk, offer no narrative. Tommy G, always bringing us the story and let's us decide what we make of it, the way journalism should be. Love you bro, stay safe out there.
Saw blades LMAO 😂 man y’all got some ideas😅
you know America is fck up when smuggler said the government needs to be reorganize
Exactly, America turned to much shit cause of it all
Thank You Based Tommy G
Arab is another great youtuber journalist that does these types of videos.
I hope that guy that helped the blind makes it through and be able to work. Such a hero.
Wholesome message
Right, you can tell from his eyes he is a great guy
I shed a few tears on this one. It’s definitely a tough situation because there are a ton of of people that just want to come And work and my heart hurts for those but there are also people that intend to harm our country so it makes it a difficult situation. I pray all the good people figure out a way.
Appreciate that bro, too many ppl nowadays are so cold and inhumane talking about wanting to shoot them and stuff like that with no remorse for any human life
Our VETERANS need help along with our own Elderly and poor! Over 11 million have come here, Send them back!
Dude at 14:15 who helped the blind dude is the real hero , strangers helping other strangers trying to better the life in the same way , Hope they all make it safe wherever they end up , blessings .
I know and Americans can’t even treat each other with respect here. Such a sad greedy country.
Facts !@@ATVtherapy
@@ATVtherapyyup. Meanwhile Americans are fighting each other over their pronouns 😂😂😂
He should get a gold embroidered green card
Illegal aliens helping other Illegal aliens. 🖕🏿
As a native Spanish Speaker Tommy actually is practicing his spanish VERY well. It sounds totally gringo but you can clearly understand him. This man is NEXT level when it comes to his reporting.
Facts😂
What is gringo?
@@catdaddy2643what you call a white man/woman
@@catdaddy2643mainly american
Funny how Mexicans call a European a gringo
But Spanish is a European language 🤣
this might’ve been one of your best videos. the story telling and journalism in this was extremely inspiring, keep it up tommy ❗️
This “episode” is the heaviest one I’ve seen in a while from Tommy’s channel i have not seen much regarding this issue so I’m honestly surprised that some people can be so inhumane and selfish. We have to look at everything from all the possible sides (or at least try) because no matter what some people lose something and some gain something there’s never going to be a win win situation because there are more than 2 sides.
Holy fuck the desperation in the eyes of that last man trying to get to Miami. You could hear it in his voice, see it in his face, the pure desperation and feeling of hopelessness. I hope he made it to his brother.
I real life hope he made it as well . The shit my mom sister went through just to get to FL is a crazy story and had a impact on her mental health is crazy.
Cubans from Miami are waiting for you.🇨🇺🇨🇺
Immigrate legally
@@homelessman3483Low level bait
@@etherCR not bait seriously
Tommy, you holding her hand through the fence was the most genuine thing to do. For what the situation was and what you were able to do, you really did the right thing.
I'm not crying you're crying 😭
send them back they're criminals
That brought a tear to my eye for real
Same. That shit got me man.. Tommy has a heart of gold and actually care
He should be helping them stay in their OWN country. We don’t want them here.
The amount of talent you have is unreal bro. Speaking fluent spanish so you can get the full story. Big props to you
Tommy G does better reporting then most news outlets
Being Mexican - American and watching these videos do make me realize to appreciate what I have now because it can be worse. I love watching all your videos but this one particular hits a soft spot in me. Thank you Tommy for this. Wish you nothing but the best.
should we build the wall
Whatever. Help your people in their OWN country. We are tired of illegals mooching off of our country. VOTE REPUBLICAN.
Bruh at one point ur fam was illegal just like mine we all anchor babies you not a Real White American you still a mexican to them
Even if u legal now
@@zolo5999heck no
I swear this is your greatest episode, seeing how it made you feel shows how genuine you are when it comes to empathy. Stay up bro, keep up the good work.
Totally agree, best thing he's put out so far. Focuses on just letting the people talk and trying to explain the nuances of the whole situation
@@animesucks2727 it was deep man, I just wish it lasted longer.
💯💯💯❤
Fake it's scripted
@@jeffrose2441 hater
Ngl I am a Colombian who’s blessed to have been in this country for about 21 years now since I came when I was only 2 years old. I recently have been taking everything for granted and complaining so much about my job and school but In reality I’m bitching for no reason and this video touched my heart. To see those people outside the rails saying kids die trying to cross, that one guy lost his grandma and mother. These people want a better life and they give up everything to have it. Ima make sure I lock in and never take shit for granted again because i know what people would give to be in my position. Thanks for this amazing video tommy it was much needed!!😭💙
This was a great reminder to be grateful ❤
This is what real journalism looks like. Great work Tommy G💪😀👍🇺🇸
“Re-organize the government” if the human smugglers are politically aware there’s something wrong 😂😂
It was wild hearing the coyotes say God Bless America and that this country is going down the drain.
@@misterretsim9851 I didn't hear any lies though America is on it's way to becoming a 3rd world country
Like Mexico is going anywhere lol
They arent they are literally causing their own problems
that shit had me tearing up. thank you for all you do homie.
Damn really going deep now.. be safe Brother.. you are a very brave man to be doing the things you do so others can see things they would have never seen in their whole life
Your compassion, empathy, objectivity and insights were truly admirable.
It is easy to politicize this issue but you didn’t fall into that trap.
Well done Tom!
100% cuz I don't. I understand they're trying to escape for a better life but man we can't fix the worlds problems. We can't just open the borders and take everyone on. This country would go to shit faster than it already is.
This is the most amazing and eye opening video I have ever seen. This really changed my outlook on everything. Thank you Tommy G, I really have been taking stuff for granted and stressing over NOTHING. Literally 1st world problems, people will swim through saws to have my life and that is so so crazy to think about. Only difference between us and them is where we were born. How lucky are we to have the freedoms we do??
more people need to see this reality… privilege is invisible to those that have it…. ppl take our rights in this country for granted. also ppl who say “illegal aliens coming in here and stealing our jobs!” are morons if a non speaking american comes and takes a construction job from you that’s your own fault.
you think thats a good thing? flooding the united states with desperate poor people that dont share our culture. do you think there could possibly be repercussions?
@@ep1cg4m3r69 I’m really not to sure how you came to that conclusion after that but that isn’t what I said AT ALL. Please reread the comment, I said how lucky we are to be here in the USA. People literally die to have the freedoms we were born with. The daily stresses of the average US citizen are minuscule compared to these people.
@@bgriffy2626 that narrative/perspective that you espouse, gives the impression that its ok to invade the US as long as its a good place for brown people.
It’s totally awful that people are living like this and risking their lives, I 100% agree. On the contrary though, American cities such as LA where I live, are riddled with homeless, addicts and crime. Prices are absolutely insane- the more people that come here, the more American freedoms that we take for granted will be compromised. Economic asylum isn’t something the US honors, however, political asylum is- and many crossing are crossing due to economic asylum. Unfortunately, a lot of innocent people are being compromised: human trafficking and exploitation along the way from the bad seeds. We can’t be naive about what is happening. People cross legally and are pissed seeing so many people come over here because they feel it is their right. I swear I’m not racist or against anyone getting a better life, but as someone who works constantly and who already struggles with the inflation due to demand is disheartening. We need to take care of Americans and handle our suffering before we can take care of others. Maybe border reform would help, so people can be screened and properly cross the border for their safety and ours. Right now I think it takes like 5+ years to legally cross. Wishing everyone the best. I’m out.
I have a best friend who crossed the border to get here he talks very little about his story as it is rough for him but after watching this video and thinking of my friend I realize how privileged we are and how much these immigrants go through
Wow, we need more of these smart, amazing gentlemen in our society like these men. Their dedication to their neighborhood is so key for their community.
Tommy G has gone from a Dad Joke Prankster that I started watching probably 2 to 3 years ago to being one of the greatest Journalist on Earth right now! Keep it up Tommy G I'm excited to see how much further this journey goes and how far out your reach beyond the United States!!!
He blew up, I didn't expect it. I watched him when he had like 1k subs!
@@jihadinternetdefenceforce for real I can’t say I can go that far back! I think it was the second time he showed up on Baylen Lavine’s channel so back in like 2020 but it was so cool to see how his content changed while he never changed as a person. God is great and truly blessed Tommy whose doing good things for the people showing the truth!
Yes we need a tommy g and tyler Olivier’s crossover episode!
From cringe atypical CZcams pranks to some of the best deep dive reporting anywhere on the Internet.
Tommy has come a long way.
wow there's absolutely nothing to say I'm ugly crying while watching this tommy my friend you're doing god's work so many of these people did nothing to deserve the circumstances they were given. this documentary really just shows the ugly truth and I wish I could do everything in my power to help these beautiful people once again thank you tommy you're the man and I hope things get better for each one of these people trying to flee corruption and poverty for a better life. they did nothing to deserve any of this. you can't choose where you were born and I simply can't imagine what these humans are going through. God bless.
Thought this was a reupload, nope it’s just Tommy revisiting one of the most dangerous things he’s ever covered. You’re a literal hero/legend of journalism. I cannot wait until you get the most proper recognition you can get
Goosebumps and teary eyes is what I got from this. This video helped me be grateful for what I have. Because when they say people will die for this life we have, they mean it. Thanks for this Tommy G
As a first generation American whose family immigrated from Mexico in the late 80s. I salute you bro. For having this type of interaction with those immigrants and helping them out. For listening to their stories and not just writing them off as bad people. You a real one for that. God bless man. 💯 🇲🇽🇺🇲
They aren’t bad but they’re being brought in intentionally by the gov even to collapse the country for the rest of us
same here bro first gen... this really hit home
Same here, first gen & this shit hit close to home
He is helping illegals enter and invade the country lol nothing to be proud of
Most people don’t write them off as bad people, we just understand that our country can’t be the worlds life raft, we’re already sinking as it is💯🤦♂️
I love what you do. Thank you for risking your life and telling the raw inside stories that we are all curious about but don’t have the chance to see first hand. You are an inspiration! Never stop Tommy!
Man I feel so bad for the people who just want a better life and that even though it’s a struggle once they get here it’s 100% better then where they were.
Yeah but imagine if there was no border control at all. America will turn into a shithole like where they came from
Feel bad for the American person whose going thru it and we wont even help our own!!
Bro what about the millions are Americans that are down on their luck and they already live here
We all remark on how nice and considerate you are
Lol most of them are freeloaders. You must live in a gated community
"we are living a life that people will literally die to have" Tommy spitting facts. great video
For sure. Wish we completely shut that border down and line military up at it.
Maybe they should just come through the proper legal way then? Oh wait thats too much work.
@@justinwesley6190pay for it then they Will 🤣🤣 oh wait you broke too
@@parryyouprovs already paying for all the illegal immigrants that are leeches on the system. Come in legally and its not a problem.
@@justinwesley6190 🤣🤣🤣🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
This is the attention we need tommy , your doing gods work w these documentaries
I love how you always ask all the right questions! 🙏
the couple minutes of the video when tommy was saying goodbye it gave me the chills
You can feel and see your heart and empathy so much in this video. Tommy, we’re so proud of you❤️
I’m wishing the best for the man who helped the blind guy and I’m hoping his family members get justice for what they done to his mother 🙏🏽, you most certainly made a lot of ppls view change from there day to day life of complaint.
Man this was a crazy experience Tommy..I could really see that you were bothered by the whole situation..You are doing you part to make change..Keep
Going ✈️✈️
Probably gonna be one of the most motivational videos ever
Mad respect. I love your style of new age journalism
Way to go brudda, always showin every angle possible ! 💯
You are the man 🙏
So heartbreaking. Thank you for doing this work to show what’s really happneing
This just absolutely broke my heart yet opened my eyes to so much. We have so much to be grateful for
Hope you’re doing good Tommy we appreciate you taking chances like this for our entertainment 🫶
I think entertainment should be replaced with knowledge because really you are learning. The people here aren't just border hopping for fun they are looking for a better place, future, life, and you here are calling it entertainment.
@@micropens 100% fax my brother it’s not entertainment it’s real life👍🏽
I'm at a loss for words to Tommy G, this hits me to the very core, absolutely heartbreaking & really puts so much perspective on life in general & that we should never take our lives here for granted & we should be extremely grateful no matter what we go through....God will work everything out to the good to those that love Him...May God bless & bring peace & protection to our brothers & sisters in this life & the one to come after.
You’re channel is so awesome. This video in particular was really deep and thorough. Thank you for sharing ❤
tommy g my boy this video is amazing man thank you for documenting this crisis up close and personal god bless u
Tommy you gotta be extra careful, you are showing stuff that the people in charge don't want normies to see. I pray that you don't end up getting disappeared. You are a gem / source for seeing real shit; just showing shit the powerful folk don't want us to see. Please be careful, we need you to stay around and continue this type of content.
Yes he needs to be very careful but he's a stong man.
he didnt show anything crazy, all he did was open some yall who been sleeping eyes on why there cannot be open borders.
Don't be scary... this activity isnt something unheard of... he is just reporting from different perspectives and keeping identities hidden. They chose to be on camera and it's not like he is secretly recording anyone..
i doubt it would be tommy facing the consequences, more likely the people who invite him in and allow him to record
@@chicofromph33nix64 He's not talking about the smugglers lol. There's a lot of politicians and corporations profiting from human trafficking. They really don't like it when someone starts showing people the reality of opening borders up
I never realized how good Tommy is with his Spanish and how he can fully have a conversation with the immigrants
Thank you for sharing there stories and giving them a helping hand
Man appreciate the work you've done big respect
man those immigrants brought me to tears… thank you for taking the time to talk to and help them.
I crossed the border at the age of 7. My Parents worked very hard to support us. Now I’m 21 in army reserves. I’m a full time firefighter . I hope my brothers and sisters the best of luck
@@NotaBinMyHdo you understand how long and how much money is being spent on that?
you should thank God that you dont have to face the desperation of leaving your country. You act like those "proper" immigration channels are cheap and accessible, cus they aren't at all.@@NotaBinMyH
@@Oga_Chidimy grandparents & parents did it after fleeing the khmer rouge aka genocide with 6 kids and no money! there's no excuse for anyone!!
@@Oga_Chidi Yes, my friend is currently doing it. People cheat a system and then demand that system supports them. Sums up current times perfectly. Lazy and pathetic.
@@thezarn2058good for your wealthy friend. Not everyone has the money to do things the “right” way. So please don’t demonize poor people for trying to live a better life. It’s funny how you classists say it’s cheating when a poor person makes it
thank you so much you're becoming a very good reporter your work means so much thank you so much god bless you I pray for your safety!
❤ what you're doing! It's hard not to care about those people struggling just to get here and struggle a little less!
God bless us and be with us all!
love that you can speak spanish Tommy G. Makes it so much better you can comprehend and talk with them. Keep up the good work
My father crossed the border at the age of 13-14 with a group of friends. They all made it thankfully but the stories he tells me and then to see people like this breaks my heart. God bless those people
Why didnt he just go through the proper legal route here? Oh i know why.

Man this is some hard hitting stuff, delivered in such a relatable and humble way. Excellent work big dog 💪
One of the realist CZcamsrs there is! This is raw reporting from the heart! Opening eyes and opening hearts. Keep it up Tommy you got all the support from the Netherlands! 🇳🇱
Thanks for the reminder Tommy G! We live a good life and yet we still manage to find things to complain about
Speechless!! Tommy, you never miss!!!! This was an eye opening, and very well put together video! Keep em coming!!!!!
Absolutely, I appreciate your sentiments deeply. It's truly heartening to witness someone shedding light on this important topic. Having personally witnessed friends and family embark on the journey across borders, I've grown accustomed to the immigrant lifestyle, and now, I find myself as part of the generation that is reshaping life paths. The individuals on the border leave me utterly speechless, as each person carries their unique set of challenges and stories. It's especially heart-wrenching when they're forced to leave behind their loved ones, friends, and the lives they've painstakingly built, often with the uncertainty of never returning. Your video serves as a poignant reminder of these often-overlooked human narratives. Thank you for sharing this profound perspective, contributing to our collective understanding of the formidable challenges faced by those living on the border.
This man tops Vice documentary’s. Raw footage that people don’t see in main stream media.
Thank you for shinning a light to this side of the world as well ❤ every day is a blessing
Always reminding us to be Grateful with these!
This by far one of the best documentaries on this whole situation that needed spotlight shined on it and tommy did a really good job at it been watching you since the pranks im 2 hours from the border this was so touching you could feel it through the phone genuinely hope and pray they okay let us all be grateful for what we have some people dying for what we have even if its a little 💙💙
Wow. Incredible work Tommy, this is definitely one of your best pieces of work. As an immigrant who left everything behind and now have a great career in this country, this one touched home. Keep up the good work!
This is top notch bro, I'm surprised af how fast the blow up has been and how great the editing and camera work is. Definitely awesome 👌
Thanks man your truly a real journalist 🙌
thank you for making a documentary on this and just spreading awareness for it. im cuban and I have and know so many people that have made that trip just for a chance to have a better life. the thing that sucks most is how some people risk their childrens lives to take this journey knowing how difficult it is.
Man tommy bro this is a good one dude. Tryin to hold back the tears. We are so ungrateful in this country like u said they would die for this life that we have. i feel so bad for those people and thank god you bought them water too. Good video and excellent work on covering the story of the youtube video!!
powerful. Thanks Tommy G -- puts some things back in perspective
God bless you Tommy. Real documentaries without biased undertones.

Love the journalism! Getting both sides of the story is so important! Good work Tommy G
i appreciate that you dont report on just one side of the story. your stories show the multi fasceted perspectives of the different people whose lives are intertwined in some way with the topic you are reporting on.
😊
Dude, it's crazy some of the people you get to talk with you. Stay safe!
Tommys spanish is actually pretty dam good and very understandable. I am new to your videos and I have loved every bit. Stay safe and thank you for shining the light on issues modern media companies are afraid to show !
Thank you so much Tommy for shining a light on this topic. A lot of immigrants are really running away from the violence seeking asylum. My father and my 15 y/o brother are victims of it, they just passed away 09/10, a couple days ago. The cartel tried to recruit my little brother & my father fought until the end so they wouldn’t take him. My father watched my younger brother pass away while he was fighting for his life. May God rest their souls & everyone who has lost their life from the injustices in their country.
Being Mexican - American and watching these videos do make me realize to appreciate what I have now because it can be worse. I love watching all your videos but this one particular hits a soft spot in me. I salute you bro. For having this type of interaction with those immigrants and helping them out. For listening to their stories and not just writing them off as bad people. You a real one for that. God bless man. 🇲🇽🇺🇲
