This is based off Lt. General Sir Adrian Carton de Wiart, he was a soldier who just refused to die being shot in the eye and other places. Bit off his fingers to stop infection. So people said he was mad because he just loved being in war like wishing the war would never end kina love. 👍
His name is “Lt. General Sir Adrian Carton de Wiart”. I point this out so that you can change your post before the General’s ghost starts haunting you.
This man the other day pulled out right in front of me after waiting a solid 5 seconds for me to get closer, and literally as I stomped the gas and punched my horn to force him out of the road was when the song says "EDGE OF MADNESSS!" The loudest. My gf doesn't let me listen to sabaton when driving anymore. It's a dangerous thing tbh.
In the OG vid, people speculated that the nurse is The Morrigan because of his irish side. The Morrigan is the goddess of goddess of war, witchcraft and death, protection and retribution in the celtic myth.
Iron maiden actually have quite a few songs about war history that are incredibly reverent to the subject. ,'The longest day' is probably the best song about D-Day I've ever heard, even moreso than primo Victoria. Edit: holy fuck wait now I want Sabaton to cover that song.
I am convinced Leo Major is the reincarnation of Anthony Carton De Wiat. -Both were injuried several times in combat. -Both wore a eyepatch. -Both served in 2 wars. -Both served in British Commonwealth militaries. The similarities are right there!
Reminds me of the German dude that wrote Storm of Steel. Which was basically his memoirs of WW1. And he wasn't super anti war like the fictional All Quite on the Western Front and even enjoyed it. Granted he wasn't pro war either.
Fun fact : Leo Major, a one eyed soldier from quebec, successfully took on AND DEFEATED an ENTIRE nazi battalion, and took the town that they held, BY HIMSELF. He then went on to refuse being gilded by his commanding officer, citing the reason that he thought the man was too incompetent to deserve the privilege of gilding war heroes.
The most badass thing about Adrian carton de wiert to me is that he actually managed to work with joe Stilwell, the general everyone else in China just despised because of how acidic he was

It's a weird oximoron because the brevity combined with the sudden jump in intensity is what makes the end so beautiful.
Yes

The absolute titanium balls on that man. Sabaton smashed it on that song!

Average White death fan vs average Adrian Carton de Wiart enjoyer
This guy is every COD history protagonist.
Wow I just discovered a birth of a new yt legend!
A man who's pride was greater than any suffering
Adrian Carton de Wiart was literally the epitome of “built different”
I mean he's making a lot of sense to me. He's never broken and will be back for more.
Yea yea tru tru, hes proved under fire, over trenches and wires
sabaton has greatest songs!
Honey, think of it like this. He is the most badass man in history, and to respect him, I sing the only song made recognizing him.
“Frankly i enjoyed the war”-A bastard too stubborn to die
Love it. Legend. God bless man.
My new favorite song from sabaton
This is badass power of sabaton.
Into the fire through trenches and mud
Son of belgium and Ireland with war in his Blood
Leading the charge into hostile barage
By desing, he was made for the froooooontline
IN THE NAME OF SABATON
When he died God went like:"So how was it?"
"Mhe, human gameplay is kinda easy honestly"
i love this song. i think 1/3 of my playlist on spotify is sabaton
Adrian Carton de Wiart was such a legend that he will always be remembered by Sabaton fans
At the edge of madness, he shall show his Chadness
Why am I like this
"Frankly, I had enjoyed the war. Why do people want peace if war is so much fun?" - Adrian Carton de Wiart
Two Star Wars quotes came to mind:
“Is it possible to learn this power?”
-Anakin Skywalker
“Revenge does wonders to the will to live”
- Grand Inquisitor
He didn’t want revenge, he just wanted to fight
I love this song
This man took pain as a game to a whole new heights he gets his hand cut off he gets shot through the eye and he even gets shot through the stomach is shrugging it off like it's nothing this this is what you call a soldier
i think sabaton memes are my favourite of all time
Based Sabaton
Badass guy.
anyone who gets shot in the head and lives and keeps fighting like it never happened is a fucking unit
i dont know why but i love sabaton music
I know who this song is about and he is just as much of badass as the song describes.
Sir Adrian Carton de Wiart; one of the, if not THE most combat wounded soldiers to ever live.
Under your video i got simple history's video about the guy. Great work algorithm
Ive been listening to sabaton since carolus rex, and i finally get to see them this october.
The long "back for more" from joachim wss amazing
I'm so glad I clicked this
" I had enjoyed the war "
Seeing sabaton drawn as chads reminds me of the old show Metalocalypse
The soldier who was shot through the eye, given that he didn't die, is also given a miracle in that he wasn't completely loco due to the brain injury.
1963.
Death: Do you know why I am here?
Adrian: Because I let you.
If this dude has an autobiography out there somewhere, it probably reads like the plot of Madness Combat.
Oh, he has an autobiography, I didn't read it, but people say it's insane

The drawings of the Sabaton Chads was the best
"Frankly I enjoyed the war."
Legend has it, he's still coming for more.
Legend has it he’s still alive
One man’s PTSD is another man’s nostalgia
I actually once spoke to someone related to the warrior of a man this song is about
These guys only know how to make BANGERS

Adrian: nah
I’m glad this guy had several wars to fight in, because if he didn’t he definitely would’ve been a serial killer
