How Ice (Meth) Is Killing Australia

How Ice (Meth) Is Killing Australia Australia should be one of the hardest places on earth to smuggle drugs into. No land borders. Surrounded by ocean. Some of the strictest customs in the world. So why is it the most profitable meth market on the planet? A kilo of meth costs about $1,000 in Mexico. In Australia it sells for around $300,000. That's the whole story right there. The cartels aren't geniuses, they're just following the money. And it's not who you'd think using it. It's the 38-year-old fly-in-fly-out worker. The nurse in a country town. The tradie who lost his business. Most meth deaths now happen outside the big cities, in the places nobody's filming. This is how Australia accidentally built itself into the perfect market for the world's biggest cartels. — 🚨 Disclaimer: This video is made for educational and documentary purposes only.
