It was an after-school on a Monday. They were just hanging out, finishing their geography homework, when bang, the door barges. All of a sudden, face-to-face, you're staring at a man. He looks familiar. It's funny, because he looks exactly like your stalker. He knows everything about you, every little detail in your life, probably more than your own mother knows. I'm Hanaha, coming with you, brought to you by McDonald's, where whatever you buy, you'll surely be loving it. In today's podcast, we're going to unravel the longest kidnapping ever registered, which went for 100 hours in the home of Brazil. Imagine you're in high school around 9th grade. That means you would have had to have been around 15 or 16. So our age. Yeah. You're on the way home from school with a few of your close friends, and you're ready to do some homework you've been putting off for a week. You and your friends are chilling, there's music around, and we're eating food, and it's basically just a regular Monday. Just a normal day. Yeah. It was a regular Monday, until the door barges opened. That's odd. No one's meant to be home until it's night. Yeah. I think everyone's out. Like, his whole family. Standing at the doorway was a man. Besides the fact that he self-invited himself, his aura is unsettling. Oh, that's odd. Yeah. He doesn't say anything, he just scans the room for Aloa, until he finally opens his mouth. Oh boy, you're all in the wrong place, he says. You're all in the wrong place at the wrong time. I came to kill Aloa. He then yanks Aloa by the arm, and starts beating her viciously in front of everyone. Just like that? Yeah. He just, like, grabs her, I guess. He wasn't fooling around, no. His eyes were filled with determination. He swivels the gun around his fingers as the clock struck. It had finally begun, the kidnapping. Down the apartment, there wasn't just a sniper team waiting, but multiple journalists standing by. Everyone was thinking of strategizing ways to get Aloa and go. It was hard, especially with the press being there, filming it live on TV. Then, the kidnapper starts grabbing shirts from the laundry, and uses them to tie his hostages up. Just, like, normal shirts from the laundry? Just, like, I think, like, bed sheets and stuff. Like, anything wrong? The officer comes at the door and tries to inspect the situation, but then from the door, someone shouts, don't come near the door or I'll kill them all. So he was serious about that? Yeah. The officer requests for backup, and looks at her family dynamics and about her, as he can't make any quick decisions, because then Aloa would die. Oh, the kidnapper releases the boys who were in the room with Aloa, because he doesn't want any boys near Aloa. Oh yeah, because he would get jealous. Yeah, because he loves Aloa. Yeah, and the officers try to get as much intel from the boys, but there wasn't really much, since all he told the officers was, he was the kidnapper, he had, like, a mental crisis, and he kept changing his mind, like, one second he's going to say, everything's going to be fine, guys, you're going to be alright. The kidnapper could be bipolar. Yeah, he could be. Like, he was, like, going to be fine, and then the next second he was, like, you're going to die. None of you are going to go out alive. Oh, that's a big switch up. Sponsor break here, we'll be right back. Hi, we would like to thank our sponsors for the video. Temu is an amazing website and app that has many products you can use to buy, and are very cheap, and has regular offers, and is a must-try app. Then, all of a sudden, the phone starts ringing. It could be anybody, but he holds his gun in one hand and picks the phone with the other. Oh, and the person on the phone tries to calm him down, calm him and Aloa down, tries to get him to reason out and talk it out. And after hanging up the phone, he announces to the police, to the public, on live television, that this was just a live interview with the kidnapper in the building. It was just a journalist. Oh. And the journalist had called into an active hostage-taker situation, but this was not allowed, but everyone was doing it. That was not okay. And they were talking, not doing anything, not taking any action, and the police couldn't stop them. Then the kidnapper comes out through the window with Aloa's head at the front, and him pointing his arm out with the gun. So if anybody shoots him, it's not going to be him, it's going to be Aloa. Oh. Then suddenly, a group of girls come along and shout. But couldn't they, like, shoot from the side? No, because he was completely covered, and the window was really small, because it was just an apartment building. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And then this group of girls come down, and, like, at the balcony, just looking up at the kidnapper, they were like, oh, we love you, we love bad boys. Oh, that's not. Yeah. That's not. And then these other group of girls came along, right? Yeah. They were, like, not happy that those girls were saying that, because it's just not right. Yeah, that's not right at all. Yeah. He's literally a kidnapper. Yeah, and then the other group of girls were like, no, we don't like you, you're a monster. And then that made him get mad, right? And he was holding a gun. Oh, maybe the girls before were trying to calm him down. I don't know, but the journalist had made him seem like a very good guy, but he wasn't. Oh, that's not right. And then the kidnapper decided, because of the other girls who said you're a monster, he shot, like, three bullets down at the public. Now hitting a hundred mark, the police, the sniper team, they all rush in through any available entrance to shoot him with a rubber bullet. Why a rubber bullet? Because of what the journalist said. Everyone thinks that he's innocent. They don't know what's going on. So before they even have the time to shoot him, he shoots Aloha, and she wasn't able to make it. Just like that? She just dies? Yeah, she just had to die like that. But nothing happened to him, because he was only shot with a rubber bullet. Yeah, it's really unfortunate, because no one realized that he wasn't the bad guy. And the nation didn't do anything about it? They didn't do anything about it, because they didn't know he was the bad guy. They all thought he was innocent, because of the journalist. And Aloha had to die, that's just that. Yeah, and Aloha couldn't make it out. Well, guys, this is the end of our podcast, but make sure to stay tuned to check out some of our other podcasts.
