I love how Best makes great funny videos but when it's time to be serious and make a serious video he hits the nail right on the head.
Andrew Driver yessir
service@cal1.net it's not advertising any product. it's just a movie made by the brcc team
service@cal1.net ..... BLACK RIFLE COFFEE is a SOF VETERAN owned business just as ARTICLE 15 and RANGER UP..... ITS NOT ABOUT SHOW TIME....OR PROPAGANDA....its about BROTHERHOOD! ENOUGH SAID!!!
service@cal1.net Hes partnered with them so he legally has to put their company name in each video
Stathis Kloth So with that logic, France, Belgium, Parts of Africa, and numerous Pacific Islands are all puppet countries to the United States and the Allies during ww2 right?
Back in 2002, I switched rotations with my best friend in my unit, because his son had just been born prematurely. So I deployed in Sep 2002 and 'Plummer' deployed a year later in 2003. While in A-stan, Plummer died in a helo crash when one of the engines failed just after take-off. I think about him all the time, wonder if it should have been me on that rotation. He was a great guy, one of those people that was bigger than life, almost like something in a book or movie. Thanks for this video Matt, it is exactly how I feel when I think about Plummer and imagine him walking or running next to me, grinning like a maniac, staying young and lean, just as bright in my memory as if I had seen him yesterday.....
Nothing but respect for you, and for his sacrifice.
We are all with you brother. Hooah.
Thank you for your service and very sorry about your friend.
f
Respect
I just watched this and it made me think of my best friend Sargeant Gareth David Thursby, who died in Afghanistan 2012. I had the honour of carrying Gaz's coffin on his final journey home, hardest thing I have ever done, emotionally, physically and psychologically. On the back of the C17 (I think) the bugler played the last post. Even now when I here that being played my eyes well up and I think of Gaz 'The Bull' Thursby. Gone but never forgotten.
I have a portrait of a bull in the front room of my house in his memory.
A shout out to all the other fallen heroes who have died in service of their countries.
And much respect and love to our allies over in the US, it has been an honour to fight alongside you in Iraq and Afghansitan.
some Mat Best vids don't need bikini snaps to be incredibly awesome.
Bikini wouldn't have hurt though
Grim Reaper wrong well kinda right
But it couldn’t hurt
This was fucking incredibly awesome and I’m not sure how they would have added in some tits and ass and still had such a positive moving video but yeah tits and ass has always been the best there is the best there was and the best there ever will be.
Absolutely the best!!! As a service member this.... just no words!
Made my eyes leak freedom
Same
That's what I'm gonna say when I cry at military videos from now on just so mutch freedom I got bald eagle piss coming out of my eyes
Amen
@@todydn AHHH! This one made my day
😂🤔 In the spirit of Mr. Best, I'm glad it was you as well, I thought I had low-T.... lol
This has got to be the most American TH-cam channel ever.
Well yeah wouldn't want it any other way
I'm surprised isn't banned faster than Alex jones
Adam Calhoun
Ever heard of demolition ranch?
If this was vet tv the reason the guy died would have been cuz mat shot him because he was telling mat's wife how they had sex on deployment lmao

this hit me right in the feels, Matt.
Bull Gerbil same

Bull Gerbil same

Shots fired! My eyes are bleeding out! I need a medic!!!
I am speechless but 🇺🇸to all our fallen veterans Rest In Peace 🇺🇸💚
I am speechless as well
This guy has made me laugh 100 times. Never thought he would make me tear up.
2019 and I still cry every year on Memorial Day when I watch this. Man it hits me to the core. Thank you Matt Best for making this.
Always gets me when I hear the last post being played
That ending. Much respect for our vets. May those who died for our country never be forgotten.
FalconAviator88 yeah man, I thought they were both there paying respect then bam right in the Eyeballs. Fuck me. Great video.
CHP Officer Donald "Donnie" J. Burt - EOW, July 13, 1996. My Brother I have never forgotten.
Mat, thanks for this. Not a day goes by where I do not forget 'our' Brother. Thanks Mat. You are the "Best".
-Matthew
Choose the Right 07 R.I.P
Choose the Right
Amen brother
I will always remember my 6 fallen brothers
Was expecting more Matt Best humor. Stabbed me with this one! Retired in 02, I'm proud to know there are future generations of American brothers in arms. Outstanding!!! Thanks Matt!
I will never forget my Brothers and Sisters that I had the Privilege Of Serving alongside of
HOOAHH!!!
Some say here that it almost made them cry. I say cry. They were brothers and sisters closer than brothers and sisters. They challenged us with their strength, displaced our fear and loathing with laughter and made us brave by being brave. They shed their blood. It's okay to honor them by shedding our tears.
I cried mate, never forgotten
If they say they almost cried they cryed they walked Into the bathroom and cryed harder than you did in public shit I started crying when the video started because I knew imediately where it was going
Learning to cry after my service was a relief. I finally had an outlet. Australian Army, Middle East 2001-2002, East Timor 2008-2009
I cried. I have never served but I have lost. I am not American but share the same spirit.
I thankfully never lost anyone while I was in, but still cry watching this shit man. I miss my brothers and sisters and they just live in different states. I can't imagine never getting to see them again.
This video is incredible... hits right in the feels. Respect to all soldiers of the USA!
Anthony Purcell not only soldiers man. Anyone who protects others deserves this respect as well. Much respect to military firefighters police and paramedics.
Respect to all soldiers everywhere in the world!
I don’t need respect nor I demand it I just a 11 b just in to escape from my past today make in my 11 in my 8 in 3 ranger bat
Yep right in the feels.
Anthony Purcell respect to all soldiers of NATO countries. I’ve seen to many coffins covered in the Canadian flag.
Grown men aren't supposed to cry.....Grown men aren't supposed to cry.....Grown men aren't supposed to cry.....Grown men aren't supposed to cry.....
B4TTLEF4ILED your profile mixed with your comment kind of made me laugh
It's allowed. I never served. But I cry for them. You keep us safe. Thank you. Lest We Forget.
B4TTLEF4ILED - too late
No there not suppose to but real MEN do. For the love of God and Country.
Kirk Eby I was going to say the same thing even the lest we forget
I’m not crying you’re crying... most powerful video I’ve honestly ever seen. God bless the USA and all who protect our flag
Very well done, a strong reminder that Memorial Day isn't just remembering those soldiers from wars long passed, but to remember those that have sacrificed all for our freedoms now.
Armed Texan
there were wars that were fought for your freedom. The men that died for example in ww2 died for your freedom. But are the men fighting and dying in afghanistan or in irak really fight for freedom? I am sure the soldiers are thinking they are and are doing everything on best intent, and i don't want to disrespect any of those men. But in which way is a war in irak or afghanistan to protect your freedom? To me, most of the wars the us military is involved in at the moment are only about power and often, about oil. and although the soldiers may think they are fighting for freedom, and again: i dont dount their honor or anything, do you really believe that those wars are worth dying for?
In terms of freedom, do I want the war in the US or over there. Yes if they want to fight, let's fight in there lands not mine. With no fighting here, I can freely do as I please, which equals to freedom for my family and myself.
meinefressekeineahnung wieichdenkackkanalnennensoll if you never served you'll never understand.
meinefressekeineahnung wieichdenkackkanalnennensoll iraq* dumbass
Yes.
Because the American Republic must maintain power. This is the course of nature. Martial prowess and control is what prevents others from fucking with you. The only other threat is homegrown tyranny.
This is what Memorial Day is all about. Either you understand, or you don't. God bless our brothers who are eternally standing their watch.
OMG I actually cried at the end of the video. Full honor and respect for all the has served and is still serving and those who perished in the line of duty, God Bless you ALL! "John 15:13 Love have no man than this, that a man lay down his life for a friend"
R I P Corp farmer 3rd baltion second marines. Love u brother.
Rest in peace Patrick. Warriors never die until they are forgotten...
BojoMojo they are never forgotten
Here's to them never being forgotten! Cheers!
Shot me right in the feels with a 50. cal :(
felt more like a 45-70 to me
TheGaming NorseMan but it hurts alot
shit fucking 500 magnum more like
More like shot in the feels with a fucking howitzer if your feels were next to your balls
I just got lit up by an AC-130 :(
As a twenty-five year and counting vet this made me cry out loud. Well done, and amen!
I'll be honest, this is the first time I've watched this video in 2019. I haven't been in the Army but I know what it's like to lose people. It's true that they're walking right by your side because brothers stay brothers no matter how far apart you may be. Soldiers sacrifice their freedom so that others may enjoy their freedom. As one wise soldier once said, "We fight not because we hate what's in front of us, but because we love what's behind us." Thank you for your service and Honor the Fallen. Fallen but never forgotten.
best video I seen on TH-cam
BEARGAMEING For sure
this is deep
That's what she said
Gustavo Lombana Jr u just have to say that on a serious video wow
Gustavo Lombana Jr jerk
You guys ALWAYS MAKE ME CRY LAUGHING, this time you just MADE ME CRY... Love and respect from this ageing Brit Veteran
God Bless those who serve and those who have served and those who payed the ultimate price for our freedom.
Mat was a Ranger, and I respect heartly deep for his service and his honor. Thank you for your service.
Eternal gratitude to those who gave their lives and thank you to you guys for your service.
My husband cried when he saw this video. We just discovered it today. He is a veteran of the navy and sheriff's department. He has seen lots of death. Keep it going guys and God Bless You all.
Gone but never forgotten.
Thank you for this
never forgotten "oohrah" marine
never forgotten "hooah" army/air force
never forgotten "hooyah" navy/guard
respect,love,forever
God Bless America and our Troops.
Bless the familys of those who have fallen in sacrifice.

Remember to pass on the story of our fallen, let your children and grandchildren know who they where and what they did for everyone. Respect what they gave by stepping up and take pride in our country , friends and family. GOD bless.
I know I'm not from the US but that was heartbreaking but also heart warming for all of your veterans out there thank you for your service it doesn't matter what country you fight for all show great respect to all veterans
Agreed. History shows tyrants don't affect one country or region. They try to take over more and more. Atilla the hun, Julius Cesar, King Tut, Hitler, Stalin, the list goes on and on. Countries have to work together to prevent such over takes.
I am Canadian. But my heart always goes out to any allied troops. You keep us ALL safe.
I watch this every so often to keep myself humble. Mat Best puts out some incredible videos, but this one is my absolute favorite.
This means a lot.
See I was a combat medic. Naval Ground Forces, MOS 68W. Wolfpack.
Our job was simple, drop in, take care of the wounded, provide cover and reinforcement, then get everybody out. We were used to being the last ones out. And we nailed the drop every time. There were six of us, so we each had one jump partner. I was always second on the ground. Me and my partner. Everything was just another jump until that one time. I’m not sure if I made a mistake or if he did or what.. but when we hit the ground and I looked up. The first thing I saw was his arm get ripped.. I wasn’t too worried until I saw how much blood he was losing. And where he was hit. I was trying so hard Mat and when he looked at me and said “hey. Am I gonna make this or what?”
....I lied and said “yeah”
I’m most proud. That I haven’t blown my head off yet. It’s so much easier when you’re dead. Best, honestly bro, you kinda keep me going... so thanks. Thanks for giving me something that makes me remember the good times. And not his last time.
68 whiskey is the Army not the navy. Are talking about being a corpsman
Stay strong brother, and don't let his sacrifice go in vain. Live your life to its fullest, if nothing else, than in memory to our fallen brothers. Easy? No. It's hard as hell. But I believe in you. God bless.
This is an obvious lie.
I dont even know how to respond to this. 🤦♂️ if you want to be a Whiskey, enlist for it like the rest of us
Remember: they die so you can live! God bless this people.
" Former Veteran " .....Being a Veteran doesnt end . One either is or is not a Veteran . Veterans know this , why dont you ?
Well done. RIP brothers and sisters
Though I walk threw the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, For you are with me, your rod and your staff they comfort me. Bless you Mr best and all the brave Americans who gave their ultimate sacrifice, for you me and everyone else in this great country. You men make me PROUD to be an AMERICAN!
Brings me to tears every time I watch it... can't imagine the pain and heavy hearts the Veteran community must carry.
PLEASE just remember that your loved ones, your fallen family, and a good many millions of Americans want you safe and happy... and will always have your back ❤
In the harshest of times,in your darkest of hour's, when the demons of oppression have closed in, and all hope of survival is nothing more than a memory... call upon me BROTHER and WE will face the demons together.... De oppresso liber!
De opresso liber!
& Duty First.........Boo Who Rar
The subtle things like the shot with "Families are forever" are what make this video so much better than it could've been
My flag flys proud for the fallen everyday, I will never take it for granted. Freedom is not free 🇺🇸
Word of God. John Chapter 15 Verse 13. "Greater love has no one than this: To lay down one's life for one's friend". So much Truth in this verse. God Bless the Fallen that gave ALL so we may live Free and God Bless Our Veterans who sacrificed soo much! Honor Respect Never Forgotten.
1:15 was the time it hit real hard
Lasse Hansen Me too. My brother is in Arlington.
I'm not an American, I live in a fellow NATO country in Europe,
I would like to thank not only the American servicemen and women, but ALL servicemen and women in NATO, for they keep us safe.
Thank you all
luuk341. Some enlist for love, some for glory, some for economics, some for the right reasons and some for the wrong ones. They chose a path to a better life. For us all. They deserve our respect. They deserve a better government. They deserve better!
blusprk as a citizen of a European NATO country, I have to say that not only do I thank all those brave men and women for fighting to protect the world but I also hope that one day I'll be able to fight beside them. Unfortunately this dream of mine is way too good to be true...
Oh go fuck yourself coalition partner, fucking waste of resources.
TAC-Z at least they fucking served. unlike some mouth breathers out here
Very touching yet serial... ThankQ for your service. And those that have lost their lives- you will never be forgetting 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Our Military is the greatest the world has ever, or will ever know. Thank you all for what you do. Cops. Firefighters. Anyone who puts their life out there for others. Only when you walk in their shoes do you understand the pain of loss. Truly a Brotherhood.
God bless our veterans and our troops overseas. These Heroes inspired me to want to join. I am enlisting in two months. God Speed everyone.
Stay safe and welcome to the brotherhood.
Respect to our Vets, current Soldiers and the fallen. My grandfather was a ball turret gunner in WW2 and came back and my great grandfather was one of the first American fighter pilots in WW1. He was shot down seven times over France but never died, we were lucky. I know there were a lot of soldiers that never came back to their families. Respect to them, may you rest in peace.
My grandfather is buried in that same cemetery in CottonWood.
US Navy WWII Joseph H. Eckersley.
What a beautiful place to rest. Thank you.
Awesome video Matt. Your humorous videos make us smile, the bikini snaps are now infamous but thanks for putting out something so many of us deal with on a daily basis. Choose life brothers! Live for those who gave it for us. All gave some and some gave all.
RIP Ranger Corey J. Carver, drinking buddy, battle buddy, best friend ever. You are not forgotten!
Holy shit...I didn't get my permission slip signed for that feels trip...
SAME
bro ,I needed that laugh seriously
Thank you for serving our country. I aim am 15 and I aim to be like you great men who have sacrificed to defend freedom and this great land someday.
Kartoffelschloss Stay motivated, do the right thing and go ballz deep in everything you do. Your on your way kid, keep it up buddy.
Kartoffelschloss danke für deine Entschlissenheit und Unterstützung!!
To those who give some... And to those who gave it their all. To those who have taken their lives... I wish I could say more.
We remember... We will always remember.
As I sit here in my darkest time in '20 this pops in my feed. I miss my Brothers and wish I had my life back. I am not sure I can make it out of the darkness this time. God bless you all and pray for our country.
Pretty powerful shit. Thanks for your service sir. 🇺🇸
Respect.
That is the ONE thing I miss. Always have brothers to watch each others back. "For no greater gift is given, than for a man to lay his life down for another."
I saw that 254 people disliked this and I was filled with rage, the audacity that someone would dislike this message of pure patriotism and love makes me sick. Matt your my hero, and I’m gonna join the rangers in 2 years, feels so far, yet I can’t wait to serve my country proudly. Thank you.
I've watched this time and time again...never fails to get me choked up
My eyes got a little sweaty.
the8jrfan stealing that one.. You crying? No... My eyes are just a little sweaty.
the8jrfan got some sand in mine
My eyes sweated too
Hate it when that happens...
1:15 really made me think about all of our brothers who never got to come home. Really hurts sometimes.
Freedom is not free. It is paid for by my brothers and sisters. All who have worn the uniform paid but those who gave their lives paid the ultimate price. I wear my scars like a badge of honor. I hold my head high and am damn to have earned the title of Veteran.
Life after the Army has not been without challenges. There have been many dark days. In those dark times I think of my fallen brothers and I can hear them saying "suck it up and drive on bro!" I am trying to honor them by living my life and being thankful for every day I am given. I miss my brothers and I hope to see them on the other side. Till then I choose life!
this is one of those videos that make you wonder why someone would dislike
Jared Kitchen Isis managed to get control of someone's internet service...they aren't allowed such freedoms in their country.
Attended the Memorial Day event at Fort Knox and paid my respects to my brothers I've lost and this video is fucking awesome! Choosing life is so fucking hard. I miss my friends. I know you do to. So I raise a glass and say "It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived." George S. Patton
R.I.P. U.S.M.C. SGT. Rick M. Villani 1981-2011. u r all ways n my heart brother.
A river of men who laid down their lives carried us to this moment and forgetting their sacrifice is the greatest blunder.
the best piece you have done to date
I love this..
I go down to Arlington next week... 2 years since we lost members of ODA 1333... NOV 27 2018... ELCHIN CCT, ROSS GREEN BERET, EMOND FORMER USMC/ GREEN BERET, MCCLARY 4th ID... 48 friends lost over 21 years of service!!! This video has kept me going for so many years!!!! THANKS DUDE!!!! FOREVER FREE!!!!! 😔😔😔❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤟🤟🤟🙏🙏🙏🥃🥃🥃🥃
Those who have gone before are never truly gone, so long as we remember them, remember what they taught us, and teach others in their honor.
Great video sir, for all of our brothers that did not make it home. Semper Fi
My parents didn’t sign the permission slip for this feels trip
A very sincere salute to those who have paid for our freedom with their lives, and to those who carry the scars of war so that we don’t have to. We are grateful.
No matter how many times, or years I’ve watched this video, I always cry. Before our men go to war they’re ok. When they come back, or should I ask do they ever come back? No, no they don’t.
God bless those who have fallen in the line of duty and god bless America 🇺🇸
That was a kick in the feels dick.
Been lucky enough to have never lost a brother or sister out there. Every one of us would give ourselves. The hard part is losing someone else.
I know What it feels Like i lost my Brother, And if he were here i would give my life to save his, That is just life.
Faith Rox my roommate committed suicide in Afghanistan
Faith Rox I would give up my life to save another and I'm only fifteen years old
We are all brothers and sisters. We MUST honor those who gave it all for they symbolize our dedication to Freedom and doing the right thing.
This is an extremely emotionally strong tribute to those who have fallen.
Thank You!
I’m not a soldier thank you for serving and protecting our great country and thank you for guaranteeing the freedoms we have with your sacrifice
One of the more serious and sober videos of Matt Best 11X . For Christian Sean Tyler Rodriguez ( 1994-2017), SPC, US Army MOS 11B10. Bravo Zulu and Requescat In Pacem, Son!! 🇺🇸🗽🦅⚔️🔫😞😢😭
Beautiful, thank you for your Service from Czech Republic from Prague, my prayers to you all
God Bless You all
I was hit just over 15 years ago with over 20 other Soldiers and one of my guys who was 4_5 feet away from me was KIA and I cannot get it out of my head sometimes if I was a step left, right, back, or forward would I still be alive today. I lost an eye and have a severe TBI but I thank God I am still alive! This video is very meaningful, thank you!!
Gidday from Australia.
Our brother hood stands strong for all of us .

Well shit, I need to go hug my dog now. Sincere thanks for all who do this, and I thank whomever for the fact that all my friends who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, barring one injury, came home alive and in one piece.
Thank you men and women of this company for your patriotism, support, and sacrifices.
For you who served, and you who supported from home your loved one who served.
I sincerely respect your dedication and admire your strength. You are an inspiration to me.
One of your best video!
Great respect from the UK guys.
True Brotherhood. The kind that does not require payment. A freely given gift. Not a reward. Loyalty over royalty!
Never forgotten.... You captured this perfectly.... Thanks to all my Brothers that paid the ultimate price that covered my 6.....
