NBC News Chief Foreign Correspondent Richard Engel spoke with Allen Grubman, senior partner of Grubman, Indursky, Shire & Meiselas P.C. at 92Y on April 25, 2012. In this clip, Engel answers how it felt to face imminent death upon his kidnapping in Syria.
I was annoyed that these people were going to end my life…I wasn’t so much afraid of the pain and the death and all of this. I was mostly annoyed like ‘this is how it’s going to end? I’m not going to get another shot because these guys are going to kill me for no particular reason.’
Amazingly, even after his ordeal, Engel told the audience he and his crew are on their way back to Syria:
“I’m going to be traveling with one of them back along the Syrian border in a few days.”
