They should've been jailed for being idiots!!! That and I'd be more convinced that they were making a heroine run of some sort like what you see on Locked Up Abroad. Now they'll probably end up writing a book and movie rights and cashing in.

And also imagine that,  Iran, a country at odds with us that actually enforces it's immigration policy.

Personally I wouldn’t have given a shit if they just left their dumbasses there to rot.

There is no telling how much money was spent on rescuing these douchbags.

Exactly. Who was that dingleberry that camped and rolled around in the grass with 1200 pound Kodiaks next to the river?

The guy's name was Timothy Treadwell. I liked the documentary and the man's heart seemed to be in the right place, but the dude was out there. I'm sure you can find some of the real movie on youtube, but the first thing that came up was this.....

The movie was Grizzly Man or The Grizzly Man

Yeah. We're not spies, we just like climbing mountains.

Sierra Nevadas. Nah.

Rockies. For pussies.

Appalachian Trail. It's a trail.

K-2? Matterhorn? Screw that.

But, Iranian border? Oh, yeah, let me get some of that! The views are fantastic, and there is NEVER  a visa problem. And the food is great. Hell, I'm 29, and somehow, I have a ton of money to go climbing wherever I want...........what? You never ate fried Yak?

Thought of the same conversation. I hope these two get a bill from National Security that`ll take generations to pay off.
