Tony Robbins went undercover in Haiti with Navy SEALs and CIA operatives to infiltrate a trafficking ring. Disguised with makeup and scars, they rented a yacht, posed as wealthy clients, and rescued 32 children from sexual exploitation. He describes the harrowing scenes and the children's joy after being freed.
Working with some of the best organizations. I've gone out on those undercover. Is that through a foundation or a charity or is that. Yeah, through multiple different things. What do you mean you've gone out undercover? I went to Haiti undercover with a group of former Navy SEALs, SEAL team, six guys and a couple CIA guys that are brilliant. And we went down to rescue 32 children. And they were from five different or six different madams. And these were seven 14 year old girls and boys, but mostly girls and chained to a bed, doing eight to ten tricks a day. And you saw this? I. I unfortunately experienced it. I saw that. The tricks happening. Yes, but you saw. No, of course I did. But in order to do it, they put. They used a movie makeup person put on me. I had huge scars all over my face and I had this hat and this, you know, stuff for me. And I went and they rented this yacht and I pretended that I was coming here. This very wealthy guy with 30 of my friends. And they're all built like this, right? They're all Navy SEAL guys. And so we rented this place and we couldn't tell the police because the police are involved. The only person who was the prime minister, the president. And so we worked everything out and then he was going to have his special forces group come in at the very end, but we had to film it and trap it. And so it's funny because I'm on the. I'm seeing things that I just. You can't unsee, unfortunately. The worst part of. I wouldn't call it humanity, because these people aren't human, but they do to children. I'm just. I get emotional. I'm thinking about it. Anyway, I was supposed to negotiate with this guy. And at the last moment on the boat, someone said, you're Tony Robbins. I was like, holy shit. It was my voice. It didn't matter. Like, my voice is so distinctive. And they'd heard it. So I was like. I sat in the corner and someone else negotiated. They brought these guys on and the guy's like, he doesn't talk to you. We negotiation. My job was just to nod when it happened. And while it's going on, I'm watching one of the guys who's this brilliant guy doing this negotiation. And he's so convincing, so enthusiastic. And we want the young ones and all that stuff. You know, he's on our side of the table. Everything's being filmed. We're right off the beach. And then on the beach, there's a place where they're gonna go get the children. And that's got all filming in it. And as he's doing it, there was three men and a woman. And the woman had intuition. And I could sense her. I sensed she sensed that something's off. I didn't know what it was. And when the guy turned, I saw his mustache was starting to move just a little like this, because it was not real. And I gave him a little look. Fortunately, we got it done. We went on there and then the Special Forces people didn't show up. And we're freaking out the last second they show up. We had to leave the country because also the police come, they'll put us in jail, right? So we rescued all these kids. Then we rescued 100 group. I sent my plane down, and the first place they went was Palm Beach, Florida, to our home. And they're on the ocean and playing basketball. And you can only imagine it's the worst thing I've ever seen and the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. When the freedom is there. And then we funded for them the integration process. To come back from that, when you've been through so much trauma, it's pretty amazing.
