You interrupt very frequently and for a looooooooong time, I'll just move on directly to the source
Hello, can you do the job 6 reasons why you shouldn't mess with the USA? I know you did the 5 reasons, but this one is more updated to today's times though, still a bit off by like a year.
Could you please take this into consideration thank you.😊
@@DominicPayne-q2r Yes he should react to it. I always let the reactors know they should really react to an updated video. The US changes often.
i worked with a russian game development company for almost 6 years. and your accent sounds russian. not exactly russian, but close enough that when i first heard you, i thought you were russian.
i feel compassion for people that deserve it. i feel ZERO compassion for war criminals. this video makes me smile every time i see it.
,,eUrOpEaN,, hahahahahahahaha
The literal definition of "fuck around and find out." As a former US Marine I can confirm that we do not take attacks lightly
There are no "former Marines" Semper Fi
We were literally in that nation illegally creating ISIS. We weren't the good guys here.
Unless Joe Biden is President and the Navy decides to ignore being attacked like it is now. #FJB
@@fittekowner true Semper Fi
@@fittekownerI think he means he no longer lives that lifestyle....
Yes, this actually happened. It was the US Secretary of Defense that called his Russian counterpart asking if there were Russian forces in the area. The Russian counterpart denied that there were any Russian forces in the area. After the battle was over, the US Secretary of Defense allegedly called his Russian counterpart again and said "we have confirmed there no Russian forces in the area" as to politely say, we just obliterated whoever it was.
Lol!! General Mattis.
@@libertybell8852oooh rah mad dog!
The reply was, "understood..."
Although I want to believe the message after the battle was true, I’ve only seen tertiary reporting saying it happened. So I highly doubt it did.
It’s a great story, but just like the Germans calling the US Marines Teufel Hunden, during WW1, it’s most likely US Propaganda.
Fun fact: it wasn't just a representative of the US military calling Russia, it was the Secretary of Defense himself calling his Russian counterpart. His Russian counterpart said that they had no Russian troops in the area, and so the defense secretary called the guy in charge in the area and said, "Go ahead."
Sec. Def: "You are cleared to engage."
Battalion C.O.: "LIGHT 'EM UP!!"
It was Gen. Mattis, wasn't it?
@@rayhunter-o3w Yes it was General mattis However Donald Trump was the President.
@@rayhunter-o3wYes it was. Mad Dog did not fuck around.
@@Thorfinn_Son_Of_Thors "I come in peace. I didn’t bring artillery. But I’m pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you fuck with me, I’ll kill you all."
The Mad Dog was a hell of a man.
If the Russian officer had admitted they crossed the Euphrates, then the soldiers would at least have been able to keep their lives if not their pride, but the officer lied, and told the American officer again and again that the troops weren’t Russian. So the Americans were like, “Great! It’s not Russians, let’s get whoever it is out of there,” and they did. So the Russian leadership let their soldiers down, which is sick.
Also the possibility that the Russian officer didn't know troops were there. Video mentions communications from Moscow, which means Putin. So very possible troop movement was done in secret or behind his back.
The Russian commanders consider all their soldiers expendable, even for low priority missions. They still have the mindset of commanders during WWI. Throw cannon fodder into the meat grinder. Soldiers are considered less expensive to waste than equipment, and there are so many available.
Also a clear case of setting up plausible deniability. Russia was testing the U.S.’s resolve and seeing what we had on the defensive side without actually pitting their soldiers against ours, creating an international incident. The fact that they sent contractors rather than soldiers in and kept the planes on the ground says that the contractors were expendable. And the object wasn’t to win outright, but to gather information. They sent these not-very-good-guys in to die and got the info they wanted…
I don't think that's how it happened. They lied, but the Americans knew it.
@@Christobanistan That's very possible as well.
The medal is probably the most expensive participation trophy ever made.
The whole incident really optimizes the phrase "Fuck around, find out"
Was about to say: This whole thing, is the very definition of 'fuck around, and find out'.
But ya beat me to it 😂
Every medal is an "expensive participation trophy". It cost lives.
@@Rotorhead1651 do you think medals are given to every soldier?
@@Rotorhead1651you have no clue how medals work 😂😂😂😂
The medal... nothing too fancy. It's the second place medal after all.
As a Retired Member of the U S Military I laughed too.
Thank you for your service 🇺🇸🤘
The best part for me was at the very end when the Russian and Syrians started to form up again and the Americans made the phone call that turned them back immediately.
Think about that for a second. They should realize from the phone call that they are being watched. There will be no surprise attacks. Not possible. No surprises at all for the Americans. If that doesn't send a chill down your spine then you just don't get it. We know where you are, we know what you are up to. You have our attention. Go home.
The Fat Electrician did a short clip talking about F-22's intercepting Iranian F-4's which were harassing our drones. The F-22's snuck up on the F-4's, inspected them for weapons, then suddenly showed themselves saying, "You should go home now." They did. th-cam.com/video/6-3iTIdzsD4/w-d-xo.html
“You should go home now”
@@Phoenixgemgaminggosh the f-22
The US military knows what's on land in the sea, in the air, and what's in outer space. They can tell you the weather far more accurately than anyone else. So them watching any troop movements is just normal. Now imagine what they have been watching in Ukraine
This is the reason why a standing militia would never actually work at this point and why the only thing that could ever actually do anything to topple the government is a civil war in the government itself which with our current political scene very well could be Brewing put at the same time it's not going to be the citizens who can form a militia capable of top when the government still
The ignorance and overconfidence of the Russian and Syrian attackers is obvious in this example but is not their fault. To say their superiors sent them into a meat grinder knowing there was a chance that the US response could be an overwhelming air and artillery response, is an understatement. It seems likely this was a test of US resolve to hold the oilfield that was met with an extreme response instead of a metered response. The "overkill" was intentional to demonstrate that such incursions would not be tolerated. The staging for a potential attack that followed showed that they clearly had not learned their lesson and were willing to see if the US was still defending the area.
The brave and noble US military has armed and trained terrorists to overthrow government in Syria since 2011, and when that didn't work, invaded and occupied oil rich NE part of Syria, and has been there ever since, and complain that they are getting attacked.
Russia didn't know America would launch an overwhelming airstrike. They can't pull that off themselves and assumed if they couldn't do it no one can.
More anti Russian propaganda. The attack was perpetrated against Syrian soldiers and Wagner advisors ON PATROL. There were 6-10 advisors and no one was capturing any oil field. Stop this bullshit anti Russian propaganda.
The Portuguese accent is apparently _extremely_ similar to the Russian accent when speaking English due to something about "stress-times" when speaking. And with how well known the Russian accent is, it's always going to be the default guess. You're hardly the first Portuguese person I confused as Russian at first- though I figured it out pretty quickly.
it's the deepness of his voice i think that makes it sound like a stereotype russian accent used on TV.
If you go listen to Lixian (Markipliers Editor, he has his own youtube channel) his portugese accent is a lot more pronounced but you will hear European Reacts accent a little better after.
fr! I thought he was North Eastern European at first only to find out he's South Western European lmao (the exact opposite)
One thing this video doesn’t cover is the weeks and months before this Russian troops have been spoiling for a fight with Americans. They tried running vehicles off the road with their armor tried setting up roadblocks to interfere with American troop movements. This was the straw that broke the camels back.
And after the straw broke the camels back, Americans called up Russia, asked if they are Russian fighters, and when reply came as a no, was only when they started doing anything.
@@Nauda999 its called a diplomatic agreement. If the Russians said yes, then the U.S. would inform them they were attacking Americans and then Russia would have called it off. But the Wagner group decided, most likely , to go rogue and Russia denied it was them so that left the door open For the Americans.
@@isedie I think the Russians were testing the waters and to see how far they can take their agression started with them running americans off the road and I think attack was a test was to see if they can push out the americans with the threat of force. They used mercenaries and their allies to seperate themselves directly to aviod as much dioplamtic and poltical issues as possible hence why their was no airsupport
@@isedie maybe " its called a diplomatic agreement" I have heard it being called "deconfliction line"
@@Nauda999 The line is what Wagner group decided to cross and the reason why Russia said "no". they couldn't outright admit they knew. Plus, correct me if I'm wrong but Wagner is more a mercenary group then regular Russian army. Kind of the "poking a bear" group if you will. I'm sure we would have had a bigger fight if the Russian spec ops and regulars were involved with actual back up and air.
A lot of people don't know that Portugal is part of the oldest "mutual security" treaty still in effect. The "Treaty of Windsor" was ratified in 1386. England and Portugal have benefitted from the commerce clauses and there has been no war. It don't get much better than that.
Russians: There are no Russians there.
Americans: By golly…you’re right! There ARE no Russians there…anymore.
😉
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Just remember we Americans have a very unique definition of "proportional"
They were mercenaries. They knew what they signed up for. I value human life, but “if you threaten my brothers you die” type of mentality takes over, especially if there is no set rules of engagement with unidentified attackers. FAFO.
That is probably one of the best explanations of FAFO I've heard.
This is a great example of combined arms warfare, where 40 or so special forces and some local troops defeated a force of several hundred with ground and air attacks.
It's cheesy, but the final battle in the original Transformers movie was a perfect example of cross service combined arms in action.
No, it's not just you. I've watched this so many times by reactions and I still find it freaking hilarious 😂
Part of it is the guy translating in English & I re-translate it into angry, confused Russian, complete with all the cursing. There’s no way you can’t help but chuckle a little.
😂🤣😂
As a US Marine M60E3 gunner '86-'90, who was thankfully never in any combat but was involved in Operation Desert Shield. It is difficult for many to imagine just how much hurt the US Marines (200,000 limit), and the whole US military can bring once they know exactly where the enemy is, and they don't have to worry about civilian casualties. Just prior to getting out, I was attached to the armory of HQ company of 2nd Battalion 3rd Marines Infantry Division. We had 150 Marines in our company, and the weapons we had in stock in the armory, were as follows...
Twenty Four TOW systems
Eight Mark19 automatic grenade launchers
Fifty two 50 cal machine guns with tripods
Thirty two M60E3 machine guns (7.62mm)
Forty eight SAW (5.56mm Squad Automatic Weapons)
One hundred and forty eight M16A2s
Thirty two 9mm Barettas
With that many weapons available for a headquarters company, none of the Marines even needed an M16. Can you imagine being shot at by a HQ company, and the least damaging weapon they had was a SAW that would fire at up to 1100 5.56mm rounds per minute at up to 1000 yards effective range? If you could even close to 500 yards after they ran out of rounds for all of those things, you would still have your hands full with Marines being able to pick you off very effectively at 500y without even using a scope on their M16s.
Marine assets are similar to Army Cav units in that they have organic aviation and armor units in regimental or brigade structure.
One thing I learned in Army Artillery school is that maneuver units at battalion/regiment will have an AF fire support officer for anything from an A-10 to B-52.
As you note, maneuver units bring a lot of hurt with them and call on a lot more if available.
The American usually fight very weak enemies . Countries with no air defences , airforces and ancient weapons . Americans have yet to prove themselves in real combat against a peer power
Now the US army is woke with obsolete equipment. Times change
Was in the same time as you brother also a M60 E-3 gunner G 2/8 Wpns Plt Semper Fi
You are aware that the troops killed were just infantry ? No heavy weapons , air cover or air defence and they were ambushed by the Americans who had artillery, and air power ? How can you possibly call that a fair fight or something to boast about . Rather pathetic
@@TrevorCrook-c1s this might be news to you, but the US Military spends A LOT of money making sure we don't risk our troops in "fair fights". Are you thinking about the Olympics, maybe?
“Obliterated” is definitely a word and you absolutely used it correctly here.
As a US Veteran I laugh because their leadership thought they'd get away with it. As a human and a veteran I also feel bad for the soldiers that had to die because of their leadership.
As an American….i say use any and all measures to protect our people. I don’t want a “fair fight” or anything even close. I want ALL of my people to come back home. The cost to the other side in order to make that happen isn’t my concern.
Exactly, if you're doing it right, you're not there to fight fair, and certainly not to die for your country. You're there to make the other guy die for his.
I was laughing too. It was an example of the phrase "fuck around and find out".
You are not the only one laughing! I’m getting a good chuckle right along with you!
"Speak softly and carry a big stick." - President Theodore Roosevelt
and after years of cold war had russians lying about capabilities, our stick got pretty damn big.
In case of Biden more of a cane really.
Russia won the darwin lottery, Darwin awards
It hilarious to watch people f around and find out that you don’t f with the US military .
6:30. Even people in Brazil who speak Portuguese confuse a lot of people around the world because Portuguese and Russian sound similar when it comes to the vowels. Again I think it's amazing that two people from across an entire continent with no contact with each other can I have a similar linguistic speak. So its not the way you look, it is that the pronouciation accentual Phonetics of Portugal and Russia sound similar to those who dont speak neither.
That call from the US to Russia went like this, “Do you have troops assaulting our base?…. No comrade…. 5 seconds later…. That is correct”
You're not being bad for laughing I laugh so hard I farted😂
I love how this video uses the ‘BRRRRT’ sound from the A-10 Warthog to bleep out the profanities of the Russian.
I watched every reaction to this video and I loved mostly every single one. I really can't wait to watch this video! It's going to be so good!!!
Your accent is DIFFERENT from what a Russian one is, but not THAT different, the difference is very subtle. That's why - totally your accent.
No, there were definitely places where I was laughing. And I'm less sympathetic w/ bad actors... I think they were bad actors.
You’re not the only one laughing. And if that means we are going to hell, maybe we’ll laugh at that too.
There is an account of the battle by a survivor. It was a pitiful story of stupidity. They went in like they were going to scare a bunch of villagers and take over. What they got was an expensive lesson of resolve.
You actually don’t have to feel compassion for everyone, evil deserves no compassion
I don’t think I’d really feel bad for any PMC personnel who die in combat. You literally signed up to fight & risk your life for nothing but money. If you wanna risk your life & or die for $ well then good for you but I’m not gonna feel bad when you die for nothing, besides yet again $. Which you now can’t even use the $ bc your dead. If you leave behind family I might feel bad for them bc you decided to die for $ rather than live for your family
Certainly don’t feel compassion for terrorists, serial killers, sexual predators for example. Couldn’t agree more I don’t have compassion for everyone
@@scotthill1600everyone is a person of their own choices, i don’t agree with you about combat deaths tho, I feel someone who is willing to risk their life for their country, no matter which greedy politicians send them there deserve respect, it may be for money or not, but you have to be brave to put yourself in that situation
🎯
@@Isaacsbased That's the thing though, a soldier fights for their country, a mercenary is in it for the cash. They're no different from contract killers, or the guys that fight for the drug cartels. The only reason it's not illegal is because some government's fight these kinds of deniable and expendable troops useful, but that doesn't make it moral.
Well, the Wagner group is better trained and equipped than most Russian units. But when you get down to it, the Russian Army isn't very good as Ukraine is showing. They are fighting a 21st century war, with 20th century equipment and using 19th Century logistics. The beatdown they did was a heavy handed response to deter any more incursions from the Russians. And the Russian pilots wanting to get into the fight probably didn't happen, because they would have been eliminated. The guy talking from the Russian perspective were intercepted communications from the Wagner group to Moscow. And yeah I laughed at them. FRussia
Russia has been preparing to fight WW2.5 the US has been preparing to fight WW3 - WW10
Just remember we’re all human
Its ok to feel sorry for the wagners, until you realized Russia denied them and Wagner went back to Russia to be used again
Some JTAC just sitting in an observation tower with 8 radios and a cup of coffee thinking of creative ways to combine airstrikes. ☕🤔
Imagine getting a medal for getting your guts rearranged. 😂
Your mom got a trophy for that, and I helped.
I think some people might think you’re Russian due to the accent. It does sound vaguely like an old stereotypical Russian accent used in movies years ago - and most Americans are not familiar with hearing Portuguese talking.
“If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.” -Sun Tzu’s
You know those CAS pilots where patting each other on the back when they got back to base they had a lot of fun
I live in an area of the U.S. where there are a lot of Portuguese people although mainly from the Azores. I knew you were not a Russian. lol
I love how the curse words in the video quote are replaced by A-10 Warthog gun firing noises. 🤣
Yeah they got the "Congrats, you survived the American military" participation medal lol. Kind of the same as giving a medal to the one who came in last place in a race just for participating to make them feel better lol.
No your definitely not the only one laughing at this.
Yea there was a Delta attachment with Army Rangers on site. And marines acting as a quick reaction force. And overwhelming air support. They never really stood any chance.
I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness because it shows me the stars.
You are a good person if you laugh at this video
Theres a phrase thats popular among many Americans... Fuck around, find out. The reason we don't have the best healthcare system in the world... is because we have the best un-healthcare system, tbh I'm pretty sure we are technically the first, second, third and fourth with each of the branches of our military taking its own slot.
Technically…no. At least in terms of total combat capable vessels for naval and tanks for ground, the US isnt first. China technically has more combat vessels in their navy, and Russia technically has more tanks. However, the US Navy has the largest navy by combined tonnage, and most of the 12000+ tanks Russia has in service are really outdated, like T-55s and even WW2-era T-34s.
But yeah, in terms of air power…the US Air Force is the largest in the world. The 2nd place is the US Navy. 7th place is the US Marine Air Corps.
US: " You have any troops in the area"
Russia " nyet. We have no troops there"
US military :brrrrrrrrt " yeah . You're right "
Don’t feel guilty, I laughed too 😂😂😂
I work for a big international company with a very diverse team. And one of my friends at work is Russian (Well, technically Armenian I think? Grew up in Soviet Kazakhstan speaking Russian) -- and YES your accent, for whatever reason sounds a lot like his. ? I don't know why if you're Portuguese. Enjoying your videos!
I worked as a .gov contractor and had a lot of contact with Russians. I had him pegged for a Russian too when I first started watching his videos until he said he was Portuguese. Had me fooled.
@@ScorpioVII said Eastern European of some kind, didn't think Portuguese, but with their vowels, it makes sense, I guess.
my unit was apart of this and the whole time no jokes all business. We didn't feel like death is funny but we'd be damned if the ones dying was our people.
I think your accent can be mistaken for Russian and your name can also. I have Italian relatives and their accent is similar to yours. And, no, you are not the only one chuckling. Wagner was "obliterated".
The mistake was attacking an oilfield. The US is rather protective of oilfields.
Whaddaya expect? The world runs on oil.
It's an important that we will protect
U.S. Military doctrine tends to focus on the concepts of asymmetric warfare and targeted strikes. This means that, whenever possible, the commanders in the field will bring overpowering force to a specific target (or set of targets) to achieve their goals. This is why there was wave upon wave of different strikes - artillery, helicopters, air-to-mud (bombers), and drones - that kept pounding at the Wagner forces.
As for why people might mistakenly think you're Russian, it probably has more to do with bad Hollywood actors than anything else - it seems that almost NOBODY in Hollywood is capable of a realistic Russian accent, so they settle on a European accent but with a deep voice. It's lazy acting on their part, but results in that particular stereotype.
Keep doing what you do, man. I really enjoy your videos!
Translation: "U.S. military doctrine focuses on one concept.....peace through overwhelmingly superior firepower. "
@@Rotorhead1651and superior technology and training as well. Our logistics are second to none. We coordinate better than anyone
I assume they felt untouchable thinking the US would just want to avoid a broader conflict between “super” powers.
I'm no expert and can't say I'm familiar with a Portuguese -English accent, but your accent has similar vowel sounds to eastern European English accents. It's interesting!
He almost said "they got a medal for one surviving... goodjob Russia you're #1." Has me dying 😂😂
Russians “that’s not us”
America “ok then Greenlight 😎”
Russians “stop killing all our guys!”
This is what we in the states call "F*** around and find out."
Ahhh, it's called "combined arms" warfare...and we're very good at it!
I don’t subscribe to many channels, but your commentary is great. As a U.S. Marine, your channel is awesome.
As our colonel in Afghanistan said when the Taliban got a bit rowdy and the Apaches were green lit to go in: Go on boys, show them firepower.
(Sidenote: I flew on medevacs, but even from a loiter, that $hit was impressive.)
Whoever said you shouldn't invade Russia in winter, never heard what happens when you f**k with America's boats and fuel.
Deconfliction. If you agree to a line but cross it anyway… cannot blame defenders for defending themselves. When that line is a huge famous river, it isn’t an accident or exercise. A deliberate attack was successfully defended.
The sad part about this is that Russian brass seemingly allowed this to happen so they wouldn’t have to pay the mercenaries, they basically sent the mercs into a trap so they could watch how the US forces dealt with the threat.
You are definitely not the only one laughing.
Everyone calls us bullies. But we really dont draw first blood that often.
Dark humor is the best humor.. IMO
The ridiculousness of the events is what makes it humorous, even though it was so horrible.....
It's the accent. To people who haven't heard a native Portuguese speaker speak it sounds very similar to the native Russian speaker speaking English. Particularly European Portuguese. There's more Spanish influence in Brasilian Portuguese and it comes through in the accent. Your accent actually sounds like what I call "generic Eastern European bad guy" in American, Canadian, Australian, and British t.v. and film. Maybe Portuguese actors were easier to find to play bad guys during the cold war because you don't have that typical Western European sound and it just became industry standard, I don't really know.
It's not Spanish influence, actually Spanish influence is very low in Brazil. The reason why Brazil has a more syllable-timed sound has to do with indigenous languages, influences from Africa (Brazilian Portuguese does sound a lot like African Portuguese varieties) and a more old phonetic system in general that was lost in most of Portugal in the last few centuries.
At 9:30, I bet the Raptors and Eagles were just waiting for those SU-35's to take off.
I served in the US Navy aboard an attack submarine. I honestly felt sorry for whoever wanted a piece of our submarine force. Tomahawks, mines, torpodeoes and no way to see it coming.
I grew up on a US naval base in the 80s/90s in P.Rico. US navy has no chill.
Even when you’re told to stop skunking Iran ships in 1988 you just “oops” sink another.
Piss off a submarine crew? They start rampaging in the pacific sinking shit in WW2.
You dented our child “Big Wisky” and gave three guys a scratch? Y’all just lose your cool. It’s dead, you blew it back in time.
Look I get it. Navy can tear down a entire mountain if they wanted. Someone need to give you something to punch. 😂
That was Prigozen on call with putin explaining how bad they got destroyed. You can find it online
There are two things you don't mess with when it comes to the American military. Our boats and our troops. Responses are almost always "proportional" in nature.
There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way.
the accent would be my guess on why someone would think you are Russian. Even if it's wrong the accent makes me think of Eastern Europe accents.
This why you fuck around, you find out is our motto. We stand ground and never back down
I’ve been so looking forward to your reaction on this video. It did not disappoint. By the way, your English is great!
Edit: the US military has a “f around and find out attitude”, it’s been that way since our foundation. This day, the Russians f’d around and boy did they find out 🇺🇸
We laugh it because the Russian troops both here and Ukraine use the term "fucked us/fucking us" without saying "we got fucked up" which really increases the humor level ironically.
6:25 - I guess it’s maybe just our infamous American ignorance, lol. But being totally honest I did think your accent sounded more Eastern European. Honestly I thought Portuguese would sound more similar to Spaniards and Italians, but I am happy to be proven wrong and learn something new about the world. Cheers!
Portuguese doesn't sound like Spanish at all, even Brazilian Portuguese (which is more syllable-timed) doesn't sound Spanish (it has lots of nasal sounds and some vowel reduction). In fact that's the reason why Spanish people generally don't understand Portuguese very well.
The USA: “Really Russia? No troops in the area? Hold my beer”
The tank and the APC that were left over was I think intentional. I mean they had accurately targeted every thing else. We probably towed them out the next day for intelligence purposes. I mean every now and then when you have the chance to see what the other side is using, you go for it
I can say the special forces are covered. You won't get a hand up on them. The millitary makes fun of each other inside. But in the end they have each other's backs.
I will say I thought you had a Russian accent but now I hear the difference
I don’t hear the difference.
If you attack someone. You have the right to defend yourself. Not feel bad for The person who attacked you Like in life. You're not supposed to feel bad for the person attacking you. WOW. William s

Being an American, it is a bit of pride in our achievements followed by a smile. War is not funny but some stories carry this humor for the soldiers and citizens.
Laughing vs. Compassion: Humans don't only laugh at happy things. We also laugh when things are so terrible there's nothing else to do. This was a tragic accident that cost many lives... Yes. And still a little funny, in a morbid way.
There's a saying that applies here; " We don't know how many it'll take, but we know how many will show up. All of them!"
It must be that the accent difference between the Portuguese of Portugal and that of Brazil are very different, because I know 3 Brazilians here in my city, whereas your European Portuguese is the first I've heard. I can't believe they're the same language. At around 7:30--yes, obliterated would be an excellent word.
It is indeed, depending on the accent. Many Brazilians even have some difficulties in understanding some Portuguese people.
@@diogorodrigues747 , understandable, as I have trouble understanding many from Scotland, and sometimes Australians and/or Kiwis (New Zealanders).
Army Veteran here and yes I laugh at the way they described it. Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
