British tourist who snorted cocaine off Pablo Escobar's grave says he regrets it, receives threats of being "skinned alive"
35-year-old Steven Semmens was expelled from Colombia after a video of his snorting cocaine off the drug lord's grave went viral in in April
A British man who went viral with a video of him snorting cocaine off Pablo Escobar's grave has said he now regrets doing the stunt but claimed he only did so as a "mark of respect" to the Colombian drug lord, who was once one of the world's richest and most powerful men.
According to the Mirror, 35-year-old Steven Semmens became infamous across social media in April when he was filmed doing the act on Escobar's grave in Itagui, Colombia.
In the video — which Semmens claimed was filmed by one of the drug lord's hitmen who he met in a bar — Semmens can be seen kneeling by the grave and spilling what appears to be cocaine on it.
