I've been watching the NZ TV show Far North based on true events of drug smuggling.

If this were a fiction it'd never get to screen as it's just too ridiculous 📺 :

the show is mostly based on a true story … much of the action plays out exactly as it did in real life. … “The reality of what was happening and what they were doing to get these drugs, and the way the real life Ed told me the story, I was like ‘this was so unbelievable’.”
