The man is seen lying on the ground with his arms and legs tied up with what appears to be an extension cord. This man has his hands chopped off, his face skinned and cut off, and his eyes gouged out while he lies in a pool of blood and screams and gurgles in pain. The man was also drugged beforehand to keep him alive longer while the murderers torture him. | ||
The man, who barely resembles a person, manages to get his arms untied and tries to reach for his face. Keep in mind that the man has no face, no eyes, and no hands. | The man, who barely resembles a person, manages to get his arms untied and tries to reach for his face.

On February 14, 2021, a video titled "[[Hi]]" was uploaded to goretube.net by user UzeeeT. This clip is yet another drug cartel gore video | On February 14, 2021, a video titled "[[Hi]]" was uploaded to goretube.net by user UzeeeT. This clip is yet another drug cartel gore video but has an eerily similar setting to FunkyTown. In the video, some cartel members decapitate a man and play soccer with his head in a familiar-looking, white-tiled, mostly empty room. It's possible that the people behind FunkyTown are also behind this video. It's also possible that there are more murder videos out there that take place in that same dreaded room, filmed by the same murderers who made FunkyTown.<ref>youtube.com/watch?v=LpNT-oGbXaQ</ref> | ||
