You´ve got personal issues, unhappy with your life because it sucks? Saying thank you to the military is a sign of respect and all that ost people can do. Coming to a military video where a guy lost all 4 limbs and telling other people to fuck off blah blah blah does nothing but disrespect the military and all that they do for your dumb ass. You don´t send your children to war, they grow up and choose to do it. You are trying to make the guy whos aid than ykou look bad, meanwhile who are you, definitely not anyone who did anything for his country, you do nothing more than waste your time online writing nonsense nobody cares to hear; much like when you speak to your family and friends and people in public, I assume nobody wants to hear the crap that comes out of your mouth. You are what we military call scum, people who bitch and whine instead of appreciating everything the military has done for you. I didn´t serve for 20 years for people like you, I served for people like Victoria who deserve a good life. You live in the usa and therefore have a very good life, yet you sound like an ignorant fuck who needs to be slapped around some. I have an idea; go to the military yourself, learn to respect and learn to be a man instead of a coward behind a computer screen. I doubt you are man enough but as you are not than next time just keep your mouth shuit - nobody wants to see or hear an idiot WE risked out lives for.
Shawna Wolfe and for what? He did it for your fucking freedom you dumbshit, if he didn't do what he did then oh I don't know..... maybe ISIS would be running the world right now
USA starved 600.000 children to death poor mothers. o remember the time some despicable country drone striking a hole family of 6 young kids and even broadcasted to the hole nation
no he doesnt. There are people in other counties that have no limbs and all they get is a wooden priostate. 9 million people a year die of starvation and this guy loses his limps due to stupid useles war. and they cost somewhat over 500 k dollars. NICE :P

A LITTLE RESPECT SOMETHING YOU ARE DEFINITELY SHORT! I know there are many countries that need help, but someone who has lost both their legs and arms IS NOT NOTHING! you have to realize how he felt. Relearning everything is no easy task. YOU MUST ACKNOWLEDGE THAT HE HAS STANDED! BIT of respect yes, you are short of that RESPECT!

Most people would be extremely challenged to cope with ONE amputation. This young man has FOUR. You are a very brave and committed person, Brendan. I'm in awe of you. I wish you well and hope the intervening years since have brought you happiness and fulfillment!
I am going to save this video to my "favorites", and in hard times Im going to watch this as a reminder to be greatful what I have. Truly inspiring! This man has a strong soul! Just amazing.
Why? He chose to go there and put himself in unnecessary danger. As you patrol this foreign land, hear the mine that clicks beneath your feet. Now do you see the light? Fading while the world is crumbling, out on patrol.
Seeing a quadruple amputee walk with a cup of coffee in one hand and a cell phone in the other. Modern prosthetics are absolutely life saving in every capacity. Man took a straight up explosive projectile and could survive and even live a normal life after. Truly amazing stuff
You are a total inspiration ! Thank you for all you did to keep our nation safe. I know nothing will ever stop you. God bless you and keep going forward.
In case nobody here is aware, Brendan got a double arm transplant from a female donor in 2014. It looks like he is doing much better today, but he is still confined to a wheelchair and prosthetic legs.
Its 2019 now and i hope you reached every goal you mentioned in this video, you truly are a brave soldier, best wishes now and forever, thanks for your service.
people of US, parents, dont send your kids to fight for oil to faraway lands look how they come back. people will praise you and then forget you and then you get your loved one without limbs, not worth it.
Well thats the war. The top of human stupidity. and than you have to spent money for his expensive limbs instead of spent money to feed the hungry.. 9 million people a year die as a resuilt of hunger. only thousands die as a result of stupid war. Do the math
What really hurts is that a lot of people go through this because of some of these soldiers and they get no attention, sympathy or medical treatment because they were unlucky enough to be somewhere in the general vicinity of another US Military operation.
@@DonPaluso Be quiet, yeah the hungry need help but he lost his four limbs, he's a soldier and he fights for the war, he worked hard, the hungry can be fed in any other place somewhere, it doesn't matter where
it sounds like you met up with an unfortunate situation! So sorry for what you've gone through, but take heart in the fact that you are an inspiration to wounded warriors everywhere who have suffered a similar fate. We honor and respect you and thank you for your service to our Country.
I just had flat foot surgery and have been non weight bearing for 6 weeks. I have complained so much and have been so incredibly frustrated at this lack of ability to do what I normally do it’s pathetic for me to even admit it after watching this incredible young man and all he has been through. I am so lucky so be able to look forward to walking again after this minor inconvenience. Thank you for your service.
I REALLY don't understand that way of thinking. Your way of thinking is (I think, anyway) "I lost my left leg. This person has lost more busy parts than me. This person has a right to complain, I do not." So what of there's someone who lost a toe, due to gangrene, due to diabetes. They see a video of someone (who has proper health care and support) who has lost one leg. What if they think the same as you? "Oh, I only lost a toe. I have no right to complain, this person has more problems than me". What if someone lost four limbs, has PTSD from being sexually abused as a child and has stage four cancer? Would the person in the video not have a right to complain?
My grandad told me "just Becouse your neighbor has cancer doesn't mean your tooth don't still hurt.....all suffering is valid. People drown in shallow and deep water
Why? Why? Why would over 600 people give the video a thumbs down ? With him missing his 2 arms and 2 legs he is still more of a man then those who hit that thumbs down button. Thank you for your sacrifice young man. Your a hell of a man. And I look up to you for that !
He's amazing, but let's hear a cheer for the medical staff, engineers and scientists as well. He'd never have made to the hospital a couple of decades ago.
+Bidmartinlo don't die. He survived and is no less of a man inside than he was. Fate has taken him to this situation and now he just got push through. He'll enjoy life, love himself for who he is and whats he achieved. With new technology being developed he'll be just fine in the future, I'm sure of it.
With the way robotic prosthetics are going it is very possible that he will have robotic legs that are better than human legs before he dies and robotic arms that are close to par with the human arm. We have legs pretty figured out, but there is so much articulation in the hands, wrist, elbow and shoulder that we are a bit behind on them. But progress is ever present no matter the situation. At his age he will definitely see worth in sticking it out.
This will change your perspective on life. These brave men are selflessly sacrificing EVERYTHING to keep us safe. When I’m having a bad day I watch this and it makes me realize how blessed I am to live in a country with such brave soldiers. ❤️❤️❤️ From Wilmington, NC.
Americans have long been made to believe that everyone out there wants to attack US. Truth is, they just want to get along with their lives, but it’s US which interferes in their internal matters. And when things get out of control, send in the army. Who cares about these young men
I agree. no so called war is worth this for anyone. I understand a country's need to protect itself in case of wars or enemies BUT we're not in any wars except the ones we've started ourselves. Instead spend the 'war money' on healthcare and overpriced drug from big pharma or education and bringing jobs back to our country. Stop fighting imaginary wars and take care of your people.
+naturegirl2110 Yes girly; Now go out and do whatever your freedom allows you to. Your freedom paid for by other's sacrifice appears to be something you do not understand as you live in your tra la la idealistic world that is devoid of reality.
+naturegirl2110 You sound too young to fully understand. Remember this man was a volunteer to serve his country in the military, just like me and thousands of others.
+William Hinkley So you are so dumb that you really believe that, if your country doesnt go around bullying much smaller countries, a horde of commies will land there and destroy your "freedom"... what freedom anyway?, You live in the most fascist country in the world.. since.. erm.. nazi germany.. Your perception of the world really amuses me, keep going on.
parzival He's saying he shouldn't be alive, as in... he's incredibly LUCKY to be alive. It's true, having all four limbs blown off, you aren't likely to survive. He's alive because he FOUGHT to stay alive.
Brendan is a HERO at the highest level. The ways he inspires to keep going and not ever give up has proven it. Others would get inspired to keep hanging in there, and to be an inspiration to others who need it. Thank you for your service Brendan!!
Im sorry but is it really natural to save someone with otherwise mortal injuries like this be surgically saved? Did he have a choice? Why can't we just let people go?
Shame on you for saying that he deserved it. A brave young man fighting for his country and loses 4 limbs in my eyes is a true hero and should not ever have anyone say bad things about his service.
Ffollies A hero? Yes. If not him, or any other military branch dude, you wouldn't be here sitting eating dounuts arguing behind a computer screen. Thank them that you are still here alive and that no terrorist is bombing your home right now.

At his age he will definitely see worth in sticking it out.
Bidmartinlo I'm sorry but if I lost both of my arms and legs just let me die, I would not want to live with that level of disability!
but if you don't die what can you do?
How can you provide and protect at this point. But in all honesty eye sight is the most important
damn man, i could deal with no legs, but i couldnt imagine even losing a single arm
Well done keep it up don’t ever let yourself get down thank you for your service
@Chip King absolutely! I second that! May he be blessed always..a true warrior 🙌🏼
@syncmaster913b it's not really his fault he was just doing his job
@@monetube765 man some people have no choice you can have a diploma and not have a job after doing 100+ apllications.
@@seanstallion8861 don't justify his crimes, I'm glad seeing him suffering. More to come for low life thugs.
@@lostboy4207 our troops do as their told even when they don't like it. If not they are discipline or risk the u.s reputation
Respect from a soldier from another army
This will change your perspective on life. These brave men are selflessly sacrificing EVERYTHING to keep us safe. When I’m having a bad day I watch this and it makes me realize how blessed I am to live in a country with such brave soldiers. ❤️❤️❤️ From Wilmington, NC.
Americans have long been made to believe that everyone out there wants to attack US. Truth is, they just want to get along with their lives, but it’s US which interferes in their internal matters. And when things get out of control, send in the army. Who cares about these young men
The only thing they are keeping safe are the politicians wallets. I respect the soldiers but they are just pawns in the grander scheme of things.
War criminals deserve no empathy.

Are you happy he lost his limbs to lower your oil price at the station?
sorry this happened to you man
Thank you for your service :) also thank you for the inspiration
You are such an inspiration. Thank you for not giving up. You are a hero.
Incredible spirit - puts my ptoblems in perspective
They should show him in schools for recruitment campaigns
I agree. no so called war is worth this for anyone. I understand a country's need to protect itself in case of wars or enemies BUT we're not in any wars except the ones we've started ourselves.
Instead spend the 'war money' on healthcare and overpriced drug from big pharma or education and bringing jobs back to our country. Stop fighting imaginary wars and take care of your people.
+naturegirl2110 Yes girly; Now go out and do whatever your freedom allows you to. Your freedom paid for by other's sacrifice appears to be something you do not understand as you live in your tra la la idealistic world that is devoid of reality.
+naturegirl2110 You sound too young to fully understand. Remember this man was a volunteer to serve his country in the military, just like me and thousands of others.
+William Hinkley freedom? You US people are conditioned in more ways than you notice
+William Hinkley So you are so dumb that you really believe that, if your country doesnt go around bullying much smaller countries, a horde of commies will land there and destroy your "freedom"... what freedom anyway?, You live in the most fascist country in the world.. since.. erm.. nazi germany.. Your perception of the world really amuses me, keep going on.
this should be shown on the big screens before every football game before the national anthem
Michael James this should be shown to every american politishen.
Yes they should , what is excellent idea
That's why I don't watch football no more. I have no patience for that kind of stupidity.
I totally agree with you 100%. 👍🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸👍 Respect to all military personnel worldwide that have been killed, injured or suffer from PTSD.
Yes yes yes
Nothing but deep admiration for this young man. When things get tough, I just have to think about you. 🥰
All things considered, this man shouldn't be alive. Shows what the will of a person is able to do.
SIOUXMAN74 stfu
parzival it wasnt an insult
parzival
He's saying he shouldn't be alive, as in... he's incredibly LUCKY to be alive. It's true, having all four limbs blown off, you aren't likely to survive. He's alive because he FOUGHT to stay alive.
r/woosh
Kevin O`Brien its not a joke. stop saying woosh if you dont know what it means. this video is very sad
I don’t know how I’d ever live without limbs kudos to this soldier
God Bless you . You are a wonderful young man.
Yeah for killings children on the other side of the world ,stfu
Its heart breaking what happening to him he is beyond words he is amazing person🙂
Brave young soul, didn't know what he'd fought for
From one vet to another you have my deepest respect and wish you the very best moving forward!!!!
How tragic to have found the place where you finally fit in and then lose it. I applaud his bravery and send thoughts and prayers his way.
He got what he asked for, disgusting war criminal
@@MaBigFatEgoI would love to see you do anything in your life you gutless coward.
Absolutely nuts in so many ways.
Brendan is a HERO at the highest level. The ways he inspires to keep going and not ever give up has proven it. Others would get inspired to keep hanging in there, and to be an inspiration to others who need it. Thank you for your service Brendan!!
He is a war criminal, a terrorist
Im sorry but is it really natural to save someone with otherwise mortal injuries like this be surgically saved? Did he have a choice? Why can't we just let people go?
In 10 years or sooner we wil have perfect electronic limbs to replace the lost ones
Reply to my comment when we get there
Certainly not in ten years. 30 or so, maybe.
This guy got new, actual working human arms;)
@@fed_zeppelin_ I don't know man, technology from 2010 to 2020 has massively improved. The improvements made from 2020 to 2030 will be insane.
There are some bionic arms that are mind-controlled so we should get there soon :D
Life is not perfect. Nothing is perfect.
thank you for your service i hope you live a happy life
Wow keep that attitude up young man. Thank you for your service. You are a inspiration...
Shame on you for saying that he deserved it. A brave young man fighting for his country and loses 4 limbs in my eyes is a true hero and should not ever have anyone say bad things about his service.
Brave? Yes. A hero? Definitely not.
Ffollies A hero? Yes. If not him, or any other military branch dude, you wouldn't be here sitting eating dounuts arguing behind a computer screen. Thank them that you are still here alive and that no terrorist is bombing your home right now.
Beatrice Loves Bvb Hahaha, that's a good joke. He should be thanking me for supporting his miserable ass. Meanwhile I just saw unicorn yesterday and I have a bridge to sell you in Oklahoma.
Ffollies Supporting? This doesn't look anything like supporting..
Beatrice Loves Bvb He went to a country halfway around the world to kill people who have done nothing to even threaten him and now I'm paying taxes to support his sorry ass.
