One Last Job? This Is What A R11 Billion Cocaine Bust Looks Like [Video]

Someone once said cocaine is God's way of telling you you're making too much money...and if you don't listen, he's going to get you one way or another.

While watching the video, you might have casually commented to yourself: “Well, that’s a lot of cocaine” followed by “Oooh, that’s a lot of Euro’s”.

Well, indeed it was a lot.

The haul was on its way to Merseyside, UK, when it was intercepted in northern Spain after a tip-off from the National Crime Agency. Comprising of one million euro in cash, firearms and three tonnes of co-co-co-caaaaine worth R11-billion.

Found in a warehouse in Galicia, the bust led to the arrest of five Liverpool men and is the biggest bust in the region for two decades.

Personally, I was wondering if the packages had yet to be cut, but each to their own.
