I commented about a year ago saying how badly I would like to one day see the place, and stand where my father stood so many years ago. I was given that opportunity, and spent the night of May 4 till the morning of May 5 up on Hacksaw Ridge, in contemplation of my father's actions 74 years ago on that date. It was an indescribably personal experience, and I came away with a new appreciation for my father.
this war shows that how america caused bloodshed of their own people n others to become super power and still is happening in the world to retain its superiority in killing people and destroy different countries.
Chimpy the movie, and a lot of the pictures make the top flat area look so massive like the side of a mountain or something. I guess I didn’t expect it to be the size of a park where I could walk the top in a fairly short time span.
Definitely not the massive sheer cliff with acres of land on top that they showed in the movie but still amazing to think of what happened there not that long ago. Crazy to think of how drastically Japan has changed in 73 years.
Yeah but to me that's 10xs worse. In the movie they had some ground between each other before the battle happened. Imagine the battle here...the second you get up the cliff you are on top of each other. Like fighting in someone's backyard. It must have just been a meat grinder on top of that ridge.
The cliff actually is very steep, but it's just covered by all those trees so its hard to see. Before the battle was fought, the American Navy cleared away all of the trees with their bombs leaving scorched Earth everywhere
The drone view is amazing. I've been this place last month and any words couldn't explain what I felt there. We can learn a lot from history. I'd love for world peace. Thanks.
Recently saw the film and I must say the real ridge is very intimidating. The thought of standing at the base staring up, it must’ve looked incredibly daunting. The initial hike then into the climb that increases in slope as you go, to a sheer final stretch. These men, on both sides, were a different level of courageous.
this war shows that how america caused bloodshed of their own people n others to become super power and still is happening in the world to retain its superiority in killing people and destroy different countries.
The drone footage was amazing and the music choice was spot on for it! If only you could go through the tunnels. It was a nice transition from the seriousness of the history to the hey if you're hungry and looking for good food part haha. That food did look awesome though. Looking forward to the custom nights video! As always, keep up the great work bro!
I lived on the very end of Hacksaw ridge over looking Hwy 1 for two years in 1962. I knew about the history but never explored the ridgeline. It was heavy folliage and had not be cleared completely of ordinance. We had occasional wild fires and you could hear the ordinance going off. None of the tombs to the West were there and there were no memorials. Our house was right next to the power tower at the end of the escarpment. Great movie and a great story.
I've been on that ridge way back in '95 when I was a kid, we used to live on Okinawa. My parents confirmed that it was the Hacksaw Ridge. I didn't know much of the battleground history as a kid back them, and I am so excited about this video. I have very good memories of the island, and I wish I could revisit Okinawa some day in the future now that I understand more stuff as grown up Thanks man! Great video! PS. that "Habu" snake sign, man I haven't heard that word for decades.... Habu Snake and Banana Spiders :D
Breathtaking views with the drone shot! Your video quality gets better everyday bro! Very informative on the ww2 history as well. Looking forward to that customs night vid!
In honor of the 75th Anniversary of the Battle of Okinawa, thank you to all the soldiers who lost their lives during this battle and those that survived and have since join their brothers in arms, and those that are still alive. We can never never thank you enough! Civilians too! Thank You! And God Bless You All!!!!
Thank you for the wonderful tour of Hacksaw Ridge. I really liked your drone view of the area. I'm returning to the island this coming July as I grew up on Okinawa. Your video has assisted me in finding the place, and that is very much appreciated. Steve Spencer, Alexandria, Virginia
Thanks Brother. Freaking awesome drone footage ! Haven't been up there in 40 years. They (the Okinawans) have sure fixed it up nice. At 3:24 in the video, the top of the sign, the title, reads in Katakana "Ha-ku-saa Ri-gi-u" and the paragraph below is a mix of katakana, hiragana, and kanji and say pretty much the same thing as the English paragraph under it, but with a little bit more colorful language. I'd like to point out that the cemetery had mostly "tombs" not graves. Okinawans typically used tombs multiple generations would be interred in them after cremation. I lived in Okinawa during the early 80's and made many good friends who were in their 60's, 70's and 80's. They actually experienced the "Battle of Okinawa". Oh, the stories the told ! The Japanese used the as cannon fodder and human-shields. The Okinawans were pissed back in 1972 when the US gave the islands back to Japan. They said the 27 years after the war was one of the best of times because the US invested in jobs and redevelopment. As soon as Japan took over they taxed the hell out of the Okinawans and their pay scale got cut by a third. Good times 😬
I was stationed there in the early 70's, I knew about the battle of Okinawa, but not of Hacksaw Ridge, I was to much into the party mode, wish I had taken more interest in the history of the island.
I got to see this in person on a UDP along with Shuri and Sugar Loaf Hill. All those places, in no way resembling their WW2 selves, still were great to see.
Awesome video. The music set the tone perfectly. Great drone footage, by the way and the food looks great. I was a Marine stationed in Okinawa at Camp Courtney back in 1993. Unfortunately, all I did was party, chase girls and hit the clubs over by Gate 2 Street by Kadena Air Base (normal stuff for a young single Marine, you know). I’m 49 now and I wish I would’ve been more interested and more involved with World War II history then as I am now.
Thank you so much for this video. I appreciate so much being able to see the place my father spoke of so often. I would give absolutely anything to see the place myself and stand where he stood. Maybe one day.
I hope you get to go and see that place. I loved the movie also, your Dad was a great hero and he gave credit to the Lord for helping him. Can't wait to meet him in heaven someday, Lord willing. Blessings on you and your family.
Blessed be your family Mister.👍🏻👍🏻 i would loved to be with your Father and ask him the whole Story.😰 Can you tell me how was his wound???Is it completely cured???
My father fought and was wounded in the battle of Hacksaw ridge. He would never talk about the war or the battle. After he passed away in 2003, my mother told me why he never spoke about it and I finally understood then.
I was stationed in okinawa in 2002 and i never went to hacksaw Ridge. i did see other ww2 sites and they were amazing to actually see in person. Like he said, its one thing seeing it in movies or tv, but totally different seeing it in person
Another fantastic video! Love watching all your videos from Japan, and such a shame that you're moving back to the States. I am moving out to Japan in September and I can't wait!! Your videos have been so helpful as well as being cool to watch.
In 1959, on "This is Your Life," Desmond said the Army grossly exaggerated the height of the cliff they placed the cargo net on. He says they claimed it was 125 to 175 ft, but it was no more than 30 ft.
Glad to see that you appreciate Okinawa for it’s a magical place. Many hidden spots to explore and the wonderful Okinawan people! Best of both worlds . Yomitan has a incredible spot that is underground with an open ceiling, very very beautiful like a dream hidden garden.
Great video, just watched a PBS show on Okinawa tunnels, the air base has remains of aircraft bunkers from WWII as well. Everyone traveling should visit a military cemetery and reflect on the senseless sacrifice, the tens of thousands of lives thrown away in one battle in one small corner of a land, makes one think? Can’t we all get along and make our world really great?
Seeing all the housing that’s grown up around the battle site, reminds me of where I grew up. I grew up in Fairfax county Va, very near Chantilly. While not part of the 1st or 2nd battlefield of Bull Run battlefield park, I do know there was fighting in the immediate area of my house. The fighting in 1862 would have been worse if a massive thunderstorm had not risen up to put a stop to the fighting.
Wassup, Spencer? Once again, amazing drone footage, man! I haven't seen the movie yet, but I can imagine being in a location like that. So peaceful and a little eerie now, but so many lives lost there many years ago. Damn!😯 About the restaurant you went to... please send me some of those deep-fried mashed potatoes and cheese. Why didn't I think of that?👅 Good stuff, brother. Check you on the next installment.✌
What up Mick!? The movie is actually pretty good. I enjoyed it. I don't know how I am going to live without those deep fried mashed potatoes and cheese now...They were AMAZING!
Those are traditional okwinawaian graves that are basically small rooms with shrines located inside and during the battle any family’s that were not evacuated hid in them
I'm a huge history buff and love this video. However, what puzzles me is Okinawa today around Hacksaw Ridge. All the housing units look so crammed in with few or little roads. Are the people who live there really squished in with each other?
Woah I knew the war in Japan was serious but jeez man that's a horrendous amount of casualties. On a lighter note the mk3 Supra is my favorite car yay!!!!! I'm glad I got to see one.
I made two trips to Kadena with VP-48 in the early eighties. If you remember the line in the movie Hacksaw Ridge. There was a scene where a truck load of beat up GIs were leaving the area of Hacksaw. Someone says: "Those guys are in the 96th." My uncle fought with the 96th on Okinawa in '45. I of course have better memories of Okinawa than he. I love my some Yakisoba!
I was in the US Navy stationed at Camp Hansen - I was a Hospital Corpsman but I used to perform (I played guitar) at the Snack Cave in Kinville. The owner of the bar was Masanori Shimabuku but everyone knew him as Eddie. He was a very nice guy. I participated one night on base at the USO in the talent contest and the Okinawa Hilton hotel wanted me to play there. I declined because they thought that it would be great if I played for a meal. It is several hours back and forth from Camp Hansen down to the Naha area so I said no. I was playing for my friends, a distraction from being away from home for all of us. On the way back to the base we would stop at Mama's Kitchen and have Chicken Yakisoba with Eggs. Yum! Lots of good times. You can see some video's of me performing at the Del Mar Fair in San Diego, just search for Carl Robinson Del Mar.
Great tour. This area is all so developed now. I think in 1945 it was small villages and farmland. I wonder if they find unexploded ordnance all the time.
Loved it! Your drone gave one of the best views of Hacksaw Ridge. I assume you've seen the iconic photo of Desmond Doss on top of Hacksaw Ridge (Maeda Escarpment). Sharing your video with fans of the Official Desmond Doss Twitter and Facebook. Great job! Jeanie Allen, PR/Social Media | Official Desmond Doss
Going to miss these vids bro. I have got to get to Japan one day. The cars and the history and food. Look forward to you showing off what the USA has too. Will be hard to top Japan
The ridge is smaller than in the movie obviously, but you have to remember that the majority of if not all of the town wasn’t there at the time of the war so all that was open land on top of the mountain as well
The ridge area is narrower than I thought. Had to have been extreme tense fighting there in that small area. The Japanese in one sense were most fanatical here because it was their homeland itself, not some island far into the Pacific. This was Japan. American military leaders knew from this experience that fighting on the Japanese main islands would be even worse than Okinawa.
2023 and people in the comments section still don't know how to use Google and see the real pictures of the battle at Hacksaw Ridge. Google the pictures people!!! Thanks for posting this and educating people who think everything they see in a movie is real.
right at the spot where you shot your drone footage, to the right of that is a path that leads to the stairs, before you get to the stairs there is a good knee tall rock on the left hand side of the path. take 1 step to the right of that rock and thats the exact spot desmond doss lowered the injured
I commented about a year ago saying how badly I would like to one day see the place, and stand where my father stood so many years ago.

Your father has inspired countless people! Including myself
Wowwwww
this war shows that how america caused bloodshed of their own people n others to become super power and still is happening in the world to retain its superiority in killing people and destroy different countries.
God bless your father x
That’s so cool brother. Your father was a great man.
Wow! It’s so small! However, things change and you never know what that place may have looked like during WWII
Kieorasama yeah, the plant life probably makes it look smaller, too
The streets and buildings were part of the battlefield too
It’s not small when you’re trying to climb those ridges in Okinawa heat and humidity!
Tidela 471 yeah! I bet!
Chimpy the movie, and a lot of the pictures make the top flat area look so massive like the side of a mountain or something. I guess I didn’t expect it to be the size of a park where I could walk the top in a fairly short time span.
Definitely not the massive sheer cliff with acres of land on top that they showed in the movie but still amazing to think of what happened there not that long ago. Crazy to think of how drastically Japan has changed in 73 years.
It is insane to me what happened here only 73 years ago and to see it now and see how amazing Japan really is incredible.
Yeah but to me that's 10xs worse. In the movie they had some ground between each other before the battle happened. Imagine the battle here...the second you get up the cliff you are on top of each other. Like fighting in someone's backyard. It must have just been a meat grinder on top of that ridge.
The cliff actually is very steep, but it's just covered by all those trees so its hard to see. Before the battle was fought, the American Navy cleared away all of the trees with their bombs leaving scorched Earth everywhere
Over time the land prolly eroded and mutated I think it is mostly the same but it’s a movie so it’s not exact
I'm sure the landscape has changed over 70 years. Takeaway that foliage and it would look drastically different.
The drone view is amazing. I've been this place last month and any words couldn't explain what I felt there. We can learn a lot from history. I'd love for world peace. Thanks.
Jin Obitsu I agree, the drone footage was great! If you don’t mind me asking, what kind of drone did you use to video this???
Allen C it’s on Amazon & was on Netflix, not sure if it still is.
Recently saw the film and I must say the real ridge is very intimidating. The thought of standing at the base staring up, it must’ve looked incredibly daunting. The initial hike then into the climb that increases in slope as you go, to a sheer final stretch. These men, on both sides, were a different level of courageous.
just watched the movie minutes ago and I'm amazed to see from someone the real place were it happened.

The music was spot on with this one
Thanks man! It took me a while to find something that fit the tone of the video.
Whats the music called tho?
Are you talking about the intro? I thought it was not appropriate whatsoever...
The drone footage was amazing and the music choice was spot on for it! If only you could go through the tunnels.

Looking forward to the custom nights video! As always, keep up the great work bro!
Thanks man and I had to break up the seriousness some how haha. Cant have the whole video seeming a bit down. Customs night coming soon!
the arial cinematography with the drone gave me chills , then you truely see how the battlefield was layed out.

No problem at all Steve! Good luck on your return to the island.
Awesome video, thanks for this. The chances of me ever going there in person to see this, is zero to none, so thank you.
No problem! Glad I could help!
Music gave me chills!!!It's so different now from what I've seen in pictures and movie!!
Next up..
Desmond's Boot camp, lmao I would love to see their boot camp even though it's destroyed.
Thanks Brother. Freaking awesome drone footage !

earthdog1961 wow ur an interesting man
Tnkx
Great inside stories, thank you for sharing.
The drone shots are the best. Now, we can really understand the layout of the battlefield. Thanks!!!!
I was stationed there in the early 70's, I knew about the battle of Okinawa, but not of Hacksaw Ridge, I was to much into the party mode, wish I had taken more interest in the history of the island.
I also was stationed on Okinawa in 1974. I never heard of Hacksaw and was in the mind set of partying. I was 18 years old
Likewise brother. Although the movie came out while I was there. 15-17
@天王平家万歳 Mauro Mejias lol Tojo is burning in hell
And if you think I fake it no I just know because my great grandma is included.
I got to see this in person on a UDP along with Shuri and Sugar Loaf Hill. All those places, in no way resembling their WW2 selves, still were great to see.
Finding this was one of those happy accidents, am subbing
I just watched the movie. Thanks for uploading this man. It was great but also sad to see the site.
No problem! Thanks for watching!

i would loved to be with your Father and ask him the whole Story.😰
Can you tell me how was his wound???Is it completely cured???
It is amazing how different Japan is now. They along with Germany are our biggest allies. Time does really seem to heal all wounds.
Well, they kinda don't have a choice on the matter! lol
Top notch videos as always...
Thanks man!
Thanks for making this video!
thanks for the video...I will never be able to visit this place and as a lover of history, much appreciated
Good stuff bro. Will miss ur Japan videos but looking forward to new content.!
Thanks bro! I am definitely going to miss this place but I think the new experience videoing back in the US will be fun.
This is an awesome video. Thank you so much for making it!

Thanks man! I will miss it here as well.
This is very fascinating. Thank you for the drone footage - really great to see the ridge from different angles. Much obliged!
Another fantastic video! Love watching all your videos from Japan, and such a shame that you're moving back to the States. I am moving out to Japan in September and I can't wait!! Your videos have been so helpful as well as being cool to watch.

I got kinda mad trying to figure out how the hell they fought on that ridge. i also expected water somewhere near.
Haha I’m Asian so when I was young rice and soy sauce was the best thing ! Or even with a fried egg
Mason has basically grown up Asian living here for the past 3 years so I guess that must be it haha
Thanks for sharing. Hope to see more videos of Okinawa battlegrounds.
Thank you for watching it!
I made two trips to Kadena with VP-48 in the early eighties. If you remember the line in the movie Hacksaw Ridge. There was a scene where a truck load of beat up GIs were leaving the area of Hacksaw. Someone says: "Those guys are in the 96th." My uncle fought with the 96th on Okinawa in '45. I of course have better memories of Okinawa than he. I love my some Yakisoba!
That was amazing bro thank you
Great vid as always!
I was in the US Navy stationed at Camp Hansen - I was a Hospital Corpsman but I used to perform (I played guitar) at the Snack Cave in Kinville. The owner of the bar was Masanori Shimabuku but everyone knew him as Eddie. He was a very nice guy. I participated one night on base at the USO in the talent contest and the Okinawa Hilton hotel wanted me to play there. I declined because they thought that it would be great if I played for a meal. It is several hours back and forth from Camp Hansen down to the Naha area so I said no. I was playing for my friends, a distraction from being away from home for all of us.

Thanks for the video...
My grandmother's father fought In Okinawa
Paratrooper frog my older cat fought in Okinawa as well
kekline ._ .... What the fuck are you on about....
Frank Parker what?
Great tour. This area is all so developed now. I think in 1945 it was small villages and farmland. I wonder if they find unexploded ordnance all the time.

Thanks!
I wish I knew about Desmond's story before arriving at Okinawa on my deployment. I totally would of taken the time to look at it.
Was just there, looks small but it’s definitely a challenge slick I can just imagine in full battle rattle
Going to miss these vids bro. I have got to get to Japan one day. The cars and the history and food. Look forward to you showing off what the USA has too. Will be hard to top Japan
It will definitely be hard to top Japan. This country is amazing and I hope you get to visit some day.
They even have the sign of the guy who was on the opposite side but bcuz of his bravery and honour! 💗
Awesome story +++++ !!!!
The ridge is smaller than in the movie obviously, but you have to remember that the majority of if not all of the town wasn’t there at the time of the war so all that was open land on top of the mountain as well
Very nice video.
Thank you for the vid
NP and thanks for watching!
After seeing the drone video, it seems they could have selected a better area on which to make their push!
Wicked video man..
Thanks!
It was nice to see the view of Futenma City, where my Karate Master had his Dojo.
Miss that place.
There’s a lot of trees and plant life there, and I think that kinda makes it look smaller.
Mainly cuz I don’t think 200 dudes could fit up there and one of them managing to sneak around and hoist men over a cliff 😂
he didn't climd up and down he brought them down with a rope!! geees
The Crew attempted to make this vid, but the historian made no sense. However, this video is very good, and described very well 👍👍👍👍
cheers bro
7:57 good german car shampoo ;D

Came for hacksaw ridge tour
Stayed for a gellow carguy
I just watched that movie in 10 minutes ago I'm happy that I know where happen
Glad I could help!
YourCarBro what type of drone did you use to video this footage?
You are a good vlogger😎
People saying how "small" it is? I imagine the American troops' ascent would've felt like a lifetime, not knowing what hell was waiting at the top.
Yea new video so happy
You should become a movie maker. Your videos are amazing!
Sonax car wash soap, I use it too. It's a very good German brand.
Good video 👍
It's a good video, thanks ¡¡
I thought there was ocean and how did it get like this
There is an ocean
Those bunkers in the movie be just added in there isn’t enough room and in the movie it looks about a few football fields big
2023 and people in the comments section still don't know how to use Google and see the real pictures of the battle at Hacksaw Ridge. Google the pictures people!!! Thanks for posting this and educating people who think everything they see in a movie is real.
