00:00A major festival fail, the Fire Music Festival, with over 2,000 people who are still subbed.
00:05A lot of very famous celebrities posted this bar and swear.
00:08The world was shot by the photos of the subpar food and lodging coming from the Fire Festival.
00:12Many were stranded on the island with no bathroom facilities and the food inedible.
00:17McFarland could face up to 20 years in prison.
00:20My name is Billy McFarland, and I hope this goes a lot better than the last one.
00:26Billy, the infamous Fire Festival.
00:30I owe $26 million in restitution.
00:33I'm a fugitive in the Bahamas.
00:34They came into my cell one day and said, only one of us is leaving here alive.
00:37There's obvious desire to know more.
00:39Fuck Jerry did a Netflix documentary.
00:41Things can be taken online or things can be taken on a fucking Netflix documentary without hearing someone else's side
00:46of it.
00:46They used the footage, but they never gave the money to ticket holders.
00:48Super brave what you're doing, man.
00:50And Ja Rose a rat.
00:50But it was in these 10 months of being stripped literally to nothing that I learned what truly matters.
00:57And people are what truly matter.
00:59Everybody asks me this, like, do you think Billy has learned from his experience and all that stuff?
01:03Billy absolutely deserves a second chance.
01:06If I ever mention Billy McFarland.
01:08This is our last chance.
01:10A little bit of a psychopath, right?
01:12Documentary came out.
01:13I mean, I understood the direction the documentary took.
01:15I think there's basically two paths.
01:17Once you go to jail, you are radioactive.
01:20One is to quietly just live my remorse.
01:23This is starting to play with my freedom at this point now.
01:26Retold and twisted by journalists from all over the world.
01:29I also know Billy in a different life.
01:31Still, he's a wonderful person, right?
01:32But the alternative path is to help those that hurt.
01:34I can't promise or guarantee success, but I will do it to the best of my ability.
01:38So I think this is great that this is going to come out.
01:40That's the path through which, you know, I can find pride.
01:42My chapter with FIRE is not over.
01:44For me, FIRE Festival 2 is about a second chance.
01:47We are very happy to have this festival in Mexico.
01:51We already have permits.
01:53Who in their right mind would associate with this festival?
01:56We're going to have a festival.
01:57The main FIRE Festival now on eBay.
01:59Really honestly just seemed like a money grab.
02:00The Mexican government who has threatened to kill me and my partners and claim they don't know you.
02:04Very threatening questions from my government.
02:06We don't want to see you succeed.
02:07We want to see if I can come over to the Bahamas.
02:10Am I going to be allowed?
02:11I think she's going to go viral.
02:12Billy owes me $800.
02:13Goodman came in and killed the five organizers on stage.
02:16There are no more chances.
02:17I know, I know what's happening.
02:19He got stabbed.
02:20He is getting crazy, bro.
02:21Secret Service came to pick us up.
02:22I have a mental health call once a week.
02:25Fuck this shit.
02:25They're million dollar tickets.
02:27Billy's the same person, right?
02:28You're playing with my life now.
02:29You know, it's the Billy McFarlane story.
02:31He's fighting to survive.
02:32Blast you, I can't fuck this one.
02:33It's his redemption story if he wants it to be.
02:35Blast you, I can't fuck this one.
