00:00Nestled in a valley between the Andes, the city of Medellin, the second largest in Colombia.
00:08Once known as the murder capital of the world due to warring drug cartels in the 1980s,
00:16in recent years Medellin is a city reborn, flourishing with new business, arts and culture.
00:23So I've come to Pablo Escobar district. I will explain the mural, the graffiti, the pictures and also a little bit of history. Please after you.
00:33We've just met the guide on a Pablo Escobar tour. It's a lot of money, particularly on a budget, but I think Sam wants to do this and he's sort of fascinated by it and I think just blow a bit of money and hopefully he gets a lot out of it.
00:47At the height of his grip over Medellin in the 1980s, Pablo Escobar was one of the most powerful criminals in history, supplying 80% of the world's cocaine.
01:00This is the mural of the members of the Medellin Cartel.
01:04Over the past couple of weeks there's been a few things that I've missed out that I've really wanted to see and finally I'm getting to see something I want to see so it's quite a nice feeling that mum's listening to me actually.
01:16So this, with the rooftop, Pablo Escobar got killed. Pablo tried to escape from the back of his house, get into the neighbour's rooftop and there he got killed.
01:29It's very chilling to know that that's where he got killed, like, but at the same time it's really cool.
01:39Yeah.
01:40Yeah.
01:41Yeah.
01:42Yeah.
