Extreme Asian Prison Recreational Yards

We often hear complaints that American prisons are too laid back. We allow our prisoners too many entertainment opportunities such as television, concerts, games, and sports.

Modern prisons usually have gymnasiums, outside exercise facilities, libraries, television rooms, chapels, infirmaries and cafeterias. Prisoners usually have opportunities to upgrade their education through university courses or learning a variety of trades.

They may also receive counseling in such areas as budgeting, anger management and spirituality. They may be able to work within the prison in laundries and cafeterias or on contracts the prison makes with outside companies and organizations.

Well we wanted to show you some crazy yard activity from the prisons in the Philippines.

We should warn you that Asian prisons are no joking matter and are some of the most dangerous and violent prisons around. Some may find this footage to be disturbing.

    this is not crazy stuff. it’s their exercise. I admire the person behind this. who could have imagined these inmates could do something like this. discipline, that’s the word.

    I don’t know if your being sarcastic.. but i don’t find anything on the video that is sick.

    Im actually amazed that those prisoners actually want to do those type of things instead of beating each other.

    Note that those prisoners were not force to do that. Its simply their exercise. can other prisoners do that?

    Anybody who has written this obviously has never been in a US prison or jail, as it is NO CAKEWALK. State sanctioned torture and slavery is more like it.
