Transcript context

…It's 50 miles, right? 90 miles. I'm going to go over to study at the University of Miami just on this. 90 miles. You're a parent. You might be a parent one day. You love your kids way more than you love yourself. Hundreds of thousands of people went to the edge of the island, put their kids on a raft, just hopes that they would get to America. The problem is you don't make the announcement to everybody. It's like, hey, tomorrow we're leaving on a raft because you'll get caught, imprisoned, killed, or whatever the case is. The University of Miami did the study. How many people did this? We know hundreds of thousands survived. They estimated I think something like half a million people perished, never got there. There's this UFC fighter named Jorge Mazvidal who was in Miami. He's a Cuban guy. His dad was one of the ones that escaped. Their raft was made out of a truck tire. Think of it like the size of a bulldozer tire. His uncle and two 14-year-old boys, they get off path. Their water winds up being contaminated, so you can't drink. You'll die. How did they propel it anyway? How do you make sure it gets to Florida?…
