In 1966, a cargo plane carrying a large shipment crashed in the Yucatan Peninsula near the town of Celestun in Mexico.

A man who went on a three-day trek looking for “Pablo Escobar’s abandoned drug plane” has shared what he found inside the wreckage.

Mike Corey and his team went on a three-day trek into the jungle in Mexico to find the aircraft on the Fearless & Far YouTube channel.

And what they found might give us a clue as to what happened.

Back in 1966, a cargo plane carrying a large shipment crashed in the Yucatan Peninsula near the town of Celestun in Mexico.

The plane was only found 13 years later, and the authorities still don’t know what happened to the aircraft or the fate of its crew and passengers.

When it was found, the cargo that should have been on the plane was nowhere to be seen.

The plane is surrounded by mangroves, making it almost impossible to reach. The Yucatan Peninsula is known for being super challenging and home to some pretty scary creatures, including poisonous snakes that reside in the shrubbery.

There have been rumors that the plane belonged to Pablo Escobar and was carrying drugs, but this has never been confirmed.

Mike set off to see what he could discover, and just hours into the journey, he came face to face with a snake.

In the video, he says: “We knew this adventure was going to be intense, but right now we’re trying to hop over our legs barefoot… we don’t know what kind of snake that was.

“The things we do for adventure.

“It’s pretty intense. It’s like a net of spikes and hooks.”

After three days of trekking through rough terrain, Mike and the team finally reach the aircraft buried deep in the mangroves.

“That’s it!” “We found it!” Mike says.

“It kind of feels like a mountain peak.” “We made it! We’re so happy.”

Mike checked the plane and found that the pilot’s seat, steering wheel, and window were still in one piece. The top of the plane, though, had several bullet holes.

While the inside of the aircraft was pretty much empty, the team found some barrels near the wing, which they thought might have been used to store cocaine.

“It’s possible they were shot down, or maybe there was another problem,” Mike said.

“I guess that they crashed, survived, and then died in the forest trying to get back.”

“Or, they got rescued in a helicopter. There’s no cargo on this now; it mysteriously disappeared.

“The mystery remains unsolved.”
