A visibly shaken Nick Shirley found himself in what he described as the most dangerous situation he’s ever been in, while visiting Cuba last week to record what it’s like to live inside a Communist country.
“Hey everyone, this is Nick Shirley reporting live from Havana, Cuba. I am currently in probably the most dangerous situation I’ve ever been in in my life right now.”
In a terrifying real-time video posted to X, independent journalist Nick Shirley is speaking from a hotel room in Havana, Cuba, warning that he and his two security guards may be on the verge of being kidnapped or detained by Cuban intelligence agents.
Shirley traveled to Cuba on a journalistic visa to document the brutal reality of life under 60+ years of communist dictatorship and the devastating effects of the U.S. embargo. What he found — and what the regime is desperately trying to hide — is a country in total collapse.
According to Shirley, Cuban authorities seized all of his professional cameras, GoPros, microphones, and equipment the moment he landed at the airport. Shirley, who seemed surprised, claims they only left with only his iPhone and a small microphone that somehow security at the airport missed. Shirley reportedly used his phone and microphone to interview Cuban citizens and to document the unimaginable living conditions in the Communist country.
The 24-year-old independent journalist, who instantly became an online phenom when he exposed the Somali daycare fraud with longtime fraud investigator David Hoch, appears unusually agitated, as he typically remains very calm, suggesting he is in real danger. In his video, shot from the inside of his hotel room, Shirley explains that Cuban spies and intelligence agents began following him and his security team immediately after his arrival. Shirley also reveals that the agents are now waiting in the lobby of their hotel, and he and his team are actively planning an emergency escape route because they fear imminent detention or worse.
Shirley claims he chose the hotel where he is currently hiding out because it’s the only hotel in Cuba that provides 24/7 electricity to its guests.
Here are just a few of Nick Shirley’s chilling comments made from inside his Havana hotel room:
“This is probably the most dangerous situation I’ve ever been into…”
“Right now we legit have Cuban spies at the bottom of our hotel room… They are literally trying to kidnap, detain me and my two security guards…”
