I didn't want this interview to end. I don't know Jimmy, and Jimmy doesn't know me, but I feel a sense of pride for him. I'm proud of him. Thank you for sharing your story, brother. Thank you for serving your country ,but most importantly, thank you for serving your fellow brothers. When you mentioned Love, that is what it's all about. You're getting it.
You being proud of him insinuates you're above him
????@@CRCfail
Don’t be that guy, asshole
@@CRCfailsince when is being proud of someone for their achievements being above them? Maybe I’m doing this wrong, please elaborate…
@@CRCfailI bet I know who you’d vote for. Can’t even be proud of someone without upsetting you people.
Mark THANK YOU FOR THIS ONE. I've been in a VERY dark place for a while now. My faith has been stretched past breaking. Tell Jimmy his testimony saved a fellow Veteran today. Saturday morning September 14, 2024. I just needed to hear that truth I've known all along. He walks with me every step of life.
RSMartin USN ( Honorable)
laugh Jimmy.
This is a good thing! But..Please reach out within your community..its good for you and for them.
Many blessings to you
@@katconlin2855You assume he has a community.
I sure needed to hear this. Thank you. ❤️
@Sheila-sv1ue Marine will be always a community. Always
"In our weakness, His strength is made perfect".
This guy deserves a 3 hour long biopic about his life. Unreal
He gave a long interview to Mike Ritland. Look it up
@@nikolaspoly78one of my favorite interviews of all time
you gotta listen to his story with the belt sander
I think everyone deserves a 3 hour long biopic.
@@marinegus so iv seen Stumpf and his little beef play through, heard what Andy said. Where can I see some interviews that back up your story, i always keep an open mind. Also, don't read this as me questioning you or your integrity or whatever, I'm just asking questions in general. So many people are on the defensive these days i hate that i even need to address that. Thanks S/F
Man, this interview hurts to hear. Brought tears to my eyes when you talked about your little brother. You’ve carried a lot on your shoulders.. I’m glad to hear you kept seeing dr. Thor. My heart goes out to you man.
This is the first interview in my life where a guest does not take a breath of air. Jimmy I am in awe of your commitment to your calling. Some people in life have greater callings than an academic life. Mark, first interview with only couple of questions. My favourite interview. Thank you from Australia what a story!!!
Your funny.😂
@jillmiller1705jealousy is ugly
Haha there are many who don’t take a breath of air. Cosmo comes to mind. I ❤️Cosmo
Your comments are vile .
His Life means so much more , Bless all that He loves .
There's one other. The clown guy
You are one hell of a man!!! Your personality is like a ball of fire. God bless you and your family!!!!
I knew within 10 seconds this interview was going to be great. Jimmy has so much energy it's infectious. Respect.
Jimmy is a coach of mine and we all love that dude very much. Great job on this one, bro💥❗️
You are so lucky to have him as a wise counselor.
@@sandragrewe he pays him don't worry
Hey Mark, thank you so much for posting this interview! 🙏🏼
@@Etrielle Trump 2024 🇺🇸
One of the best interviews ever. Keep spreading the word and keep turning it over every day, Jimmy.
These episodes are so much more powerful than the drug addicts. I LOVE the episodes and interviews with addicts, don’t get me wrong, but these stories are incredible.
I just watched the Paul interview and between these both my whole day was made exponentially better
right its more hardcore to try in life than stick a needle in your arm
Because Hope is a powerful catalyst for change ❤
This is beautiful. We all struggle but show me the man who has talked and walked with God and His life will be the proof. He doesn’t need to ‘convince’ anyone. God can reach people right where they are. This is what is wrong in our churches. They make people feel that they aren’t ’good enough’. It is so frustrating. Have you they even read the Bible? There is one story after another of God using the broken person. That is the whole point. That is why when we judge, we don’t glean what we can from one another. That is why SWU is beautiful. It allows us to take in the story of people that we want to judge, that we avert our eyes from, that we would never want to share a meal with. It shows us that we share the world with these people, even in our cozy little bubbles. God uses the foolish things to confound the (seemingly) wise. Jimmy I love this. Keep talking. Others will follow. These stories garner the most attention because we all want to see life restored!
He was a drug addict tho
You learn what not to do in life.
I'm 3/4 of the way done with the video & I've never had so many, goosebumps in my life, over & over! I'm praying for salvation, anyone watching, editing & filming this video!!! ❤️
God Bless you Jimmy my brother in Christ! Stay living in his grace.
First a book then a movie. This story has so much that it could be a series!
I always Tried to push people away from me. I don't know why I was like that.....When I was younger, I avoided my family. 1 day I was sitting in a park.
And I met a homeless man. he told me He lost wife and his kids in a car accident and he couldn't deal with life. He wanted to kill himself..He told me make sure you tell your family everyday You love them because you never know what tomorrow will bring. That day this man changed me for the better.
And now I'm around my family every day. This homeless man changed my life and I ended up changing his...i cleaned him up I got them off drugs. I found him a good job.
Now we are best friends. It's a amazing how life is. Please People tell your loved ones you love Them Because you never know what tomorrow will bring
Sometimes you have to love or acknowledge people from a distance because they are not interested in a healthy or loving lifestyle or relationship with you or anyone else. They are too stuck and committed to being dysfunctional and making anybody miserable who comes around them. Don't want to see anything bad happen to them but sometimes the more healthier decision is to leave well enough alone and be comfortable with saying good riddens
What an awesome story! Thank you for sharing this.
What was the homeless man's name?
Can you get him on Soft White Underbelly?
Thanks so much for telling that story and being the person you are!
I wasn’t going to click on this video when I read the title but I’m so glad I did! Absolutely love this interview. He needs to give his testimony to Delafe Testimonies.
At 50:00 now and damn this guys story would make an amazing movie. Im blown away.
I’m pretty sure I caught second hand PTSD from this guy 😳 Mann he’s wired tight. Hope he continues to find peace
"Second hand PTSD"...,🤪🤣🤪
Same here. This guy definitely suffers from severe bipolar disorder. I’ve heard several people tell me a story almost exactly like this about how Jesus saved them. There’s gotta be a book or something out there that these people absorb during a manic episode bc the stories are too similar. I fully believe in God & Jesus Christ but he doesn’t work like how he’s being portrayed here in this video.
I do believe the people that explained the house to him were likely undercover federal agents. Or there had been heavy surveillance of the house. I don't think they were getting messages from God@@LudiCrust.
@@LudiCrust. okay but isn't a personal relationship with God the correct way? And wouldn't this relationship be individual to the person? Wouldn't God speak to different people in different ways?
Yeah, this has to be the best one. I’ve heard on here. I heard some pretty good ones. What a great outcome and future God bless you, Jimmy.
He is full of crap.
@@Donner906 maybe he is maybe he is not. Who are you to make that call unless you know him personally? Do you?
@@frankcouste4785 He is telling crazy tall tales. I like the psychic Jesus story. Learn to recognize a charlatan.
@@Donner906 He is not. BUD/s Class 283. His name is literally on the Nisour square Wikipedia page as the Blackwater Commander in charge of the team. He is also on court doc as the CEO for Team Mcafee. Use google. Easily verifiable.
I resisted my PTSD diagnosis for years with the same attitude as Jimmy. The nightmares and waking up into panic attacks 3-4 times a week is what finally forced me to accept it. Realizing I had zero control over what was happening while I slept is what did it. Preciate the interview. This is a good one
I love a battered to redemption story. its supernatural and real. I hope people grab it before its too late.
I really enjoy these sort of testimonials. So powerful. Thank you, Jimmy.
Thank you, Mark❤❤
This man is absolutely telling the truth for the doubters and Mark ive been following you for years and this is probably the best interview you have had on your channel! My son is taking the asvab for the army and i made him watch this and he said its the best interview he has seen as well. Excellent job.
Agreeeee !!!💙🕊🕊🌟🕊💙💙💙🕊🕊🌟🕊💙🕊🕊💙
I doubt that.
@@dougwilson6778 I would like to say thank you to you Sir and Ma’am for your support of your son’s choice! Thank you 🙏🏽 so very much in advance young man! I will keep you in my prayers. Best of luck with Basic. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Wouldn't this video dissuade him from joining the military? lmao
If this interview doesn’t provoke anxiety as a military parent, I have doubts you watched the whole thing.
Jesus I could barely keep up with this guy….so much energy!
Jimmy is a fanatic, he is either all in or he is not! Thank you for being a hero, Jimmy!
Not a lot of these episodes grab my attention for the entire episode like this one did. Damm Jimmy you've lived a life my friend. Thank you for sharing and I know you'll do great things. Keep up the great work!
Best interview ever, Mark. Maybe the best thing on TH-cam now. Believe Possibility.
You need to expand your film making. This brother is your ticket. Make his story and win an Oscar. I have indeed walked in the same boots and our path only few know. Even fewer are able to discover the journey’s end. Dark and Deep are the waters we forge.
Then I am on my way.
God, we don't need crazy suicidal ones like that guy with the tattoo on his neck that says, "cut here".
I wonder if some of these characters are for real, or he's embellished them quite a bit.
Makes a good story though.
Amazing story told by an amazing man. Thank you Jimmy for your service to our country and for sharing your empowering story!!
Thank you Mark for making this happen!
Best interview ever. Edge of my seat the whole time. Jimmy is an American legend.
Omg…..this is hands down the most powerful interview I have ever seen in my life.
Wow your interviews just keep topping themselves. Thank you for sharing your story!
This guy is so special, in all ways possible.
He’s definitely *special*
He has had God's protection his whole life
Special for killing innocent civilians for Blackrock? Wtf is wrong with you people?
@@heatherh.197god does not work like that, sorry. It’s called free will.
@@TerpeneProfile1 God gives us free will
We couldn’t win wars if we didn’t have guys like this who just thrive in that environment
Unfortunately, you may be right.(Meaning, some people make it such a messy, nasty place sometimes, who else can clean it up?)..And, amazing people that know how to rise to the occasion when in the middle of all hell breaking loose...
This guy reminds me of the Hulk.
What a powerful testimony, Jimmy. I needed to hear that. God is good. Thank you. You have no idea how timely this is. Bless. ❤
I have never in my life listened to a more compelling, mind-blowing, intense interview with a person more full of life, hardships, untold demons and simple, understandable values than this. What drew me to it, can't say. But from the time that Jimmy opened his mouth and let loose the Texas Tornado within, I sat riveted for the full hour and change. Unbelievable in every sense of the word and yet - and yet - there's no doubting the authenticity of any of it. Profound doesn't even touch it. THANK YOU.
Maybe its just me, but I find myself doubting the authenticity of his whole story.
Thank you Jimmy for your service and sacrifice to our country. Powerful interview and testimony brother! I was a technician at ASDS 2004-2007. I trained with Matt Leathers on the Big Island up at the mountain top compound. I had a very similar life. What is something else crazy is I’m from Amarillo born and raised. I too lost my marriage my family, I was lost for12 years after I retired from the Navy after 21 years. Man your testimony brought back so many memories! Man you have no idea how parallel our paths have been. Fair Winds and Following Seas my brother! Got is good.
Lubbock here ✋
@@meredithcoleman446 howdy neighbor! From Bomb 💣 City to Hub City.
He is full of crap. Blackwater, marines, navy seal, sniper.......Right. Apparently a recipient of information from "psychic Jesus". Learn to recognize a charlatan. If he said he killed Osama Bin Laden, you would believe him.
More like sacrifice for our oligarch overlords. Iraq was a pointless war. Over 1 million people died. Mainly innocent civilians.
@@loreleilazuli8874 I respect your subjectivity. I agree with you on Iraq and I’ll go a step further. I’m mature enough to understand and admit that I am not perfect and I have made many mistakes in my life. I do not apologize for my service to America, not one bit. I fought for this country. I made the best decision I could at 17. Hindsight is 20/20, and when I was a young man I was invincible, a genius, a leader and all the rest. Everyone has a useful purpose…mine was a career in the military. Thank you for your comment, I wish you all the best. To all veterans, civil servants, first responders. Thank you for your service and sacrifices! 💙💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Hands down, the best story I've ever heard. Thank you for sharing that. That gave me hope.
Mark, last night you shared, 'An honest man,' and today this. Mark, you have platformed LIGHT AND LOVE!! Bringing the love of God, restoring faith, just opening souls!! Keep doing this. You are a true Soldier out here on the battlefield for our Lord and Savior.
What an awesome story. I'm happy that Jimmy found God and spreads his word today. We need to hear more from people like this. Thank you to Mark for giving people like Jimmy a platform to speak their story.
We should be hell bent on anything we want to accomplish
Amen!
Typical punk turned religious scammer... "Lighthouses arent for sale and neither is my word". Yet you have a website that you use to "spiritually awaken" people for a price that you profit off of.
Facts
That's a great way to accomplish something, that's for sure. But, so many times, we *have* to do something, so the fire ain't burnin' 😅
he is incredibly insightful. One of the best interviews yet...
“Light houses aren’t for sale, and neither is my word…..” @58:21……W.O.W! My jaw hit the floor! Absolutely covered in goosebumps!!!!
So, what are mega churches really doing?
@@arthursmith5409 ever seen the inside edition of Kenneth Copeland turning into a demon when he’s asked why he said people in commercial planes were demons and that’s why he needs a private jet? 😂😂😂😂 THATS what they’re doin! May Allah guide everyone to the straight path! Ameen 🤲🏽
YES!
@@CALL_LIDwho is Allah?
@@cujopersico1120 Allah is the creator of everything! The mighty, the all merciful, the one and only GOD and Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him is his messenger! So was Moses, Jesus, Noah, Abraham, Adam…etc
Thanks 🙏🏼 for your honest and vulnerable talk today.
Wow. Thank you for sharing your story Jimmy. Light conquers the darkness. Stay strong brother. ROC/NY
"This big boil eventually pops on the desk" lmao!!! This guys a hoot.
Jimmy, you are the best. Keep spreading the good word and hope for others. I follow you everywhere.
Woooooow !! What a story !! Thank you, brother !! Thank you, Mark !! Loved every second !! 👏🏼
I've watched hundreds of interviews on your channel. This was by far my favorite. What an absolute animal, character and warrior. The definition and example of tough Red, white and blue faith-filled American.
Praise God Jimmy!!! Share your testimony for the world to hear the good news. ❤
I love EVERYTHING about this testimony @Jimmy Watson!!!!!
A marine, a mercenary, a special forces member, a CEO, a fugitive, it's like this guy just combined ever Tom Clancy book into one ultimate novel. He did all this while apparently dealing with PTSD and addiction issues. It's kind of like when you're a kid day dreaming and one minute you're Batman, the next you're Hulk Hogan, and then you're Spiderman.
Don't forget, has personal conversations with God and is basically a modern prophet. Its really surprising (I guess not really) how easily people believe this story. It just goes to show that you can tell a story thats 90% true and people will over look the 10% thats completely made up.
Unreal
Or maybe he is full of BS.
@@jeffshelton4741 well, yeah…
Everytime Jimmy has told his story and given his testimony, I gotta hear it. Amazed everytime.
What an awesome and amazing story. I really love this one
Wonderful , heartbreaking and triumphant! I watched this all the way through and it felt like it could go ALL night. He’s been thru ALOT! I thank GOD he found his way thru faith and life lessons 🤲🏾
This guy is super human. Bring him back to tell more personal stories of his life.
This was life-changing. God bless you Jimmy
This is absolutely incredible
Having ptsd is very difficult. I was almost murdered at the age of 19 and nearly bled out alone on christmas after being beaten with a baseball bat and stabbed. I didnt even know what the symptoms where and thought it was just for soldiers in the movies. 16 years later after many stints in rehab and homelessness and drug addiction. I just finally started my ptsd therapy and this is really encouraging to me, because alot of the time It feels like Im never going to get better.
A real warrior. I admire him. From this veteran: I thank him for his service.
I want to first say thank you Jimmy for showing us a piece of your journey through the battlefield, overseas and the war you have in your head. Second, I want to say thank Mark for uploading this video and most importantly letting this hero tell his journey without interrupting him in the process. I wanted to know when you graduated Navy boot camp Jimmy because you look very familiar. Anyways, I graduated boot camp at Great Lakes Illinois in 96' division 452 then straight to buds...Thank you again shipmate 🦁❤⚓
Wow Jimmy!….great interview. Dang. Mark…you need to interview his parents.
I really appreciate these stories of crazy challenges and adventure vs. the hopeless. These are the gripping stories did I go back to until I finished them because I have to know how it turns out. Definitely more of this type of content please
Jimmy, my brother! Thank you for your commitment to our country and for being part of our awesome military! I wish you the best in life and peace within your heart, thank you.
May we all hear this powerful message, thank you Jimmy for sharing your story, blessings.
All the best to Jimmy
Thanks for giving Jimmy his own unique title and introduction, rather than something clickbaity like "John MacAfee's bodyguard". Such an amazing interview and soul.
That click bait wouldn't have worked on me.
I don't recall who John MacAffee is...
Got my pic with Jane Goodall though...That was super duper for me!
I may have to lay down and take a nap after this one 😅
Jimmy, thank you for your service!
His ADHD is on whack! With that much respect.
This dude is awesome. He is unstoppable in his own way.
I remember the convoy along Route Irish when we rolled in from Kuwait to Baghdad in March '04. The stench was overwhelming.
Not quite the same...But, reminds me of the movie..."Turtles Can Fly".
Young children, teen girls story in Iraq.
Highly recommend.
Wow, I could NEVER have predicted where this story was going but all praise be to God, this man has found the way. Jimmy's story reminds us that NO one is ever too far from the grace of God just waiting for us to call out to Him. Amen and thank you for being a Lighthouse Jimmy. Incredible story and testimony.
As fellow veterans, we feel ya brother. 🇺🇸
God keep you in his light and on the path he shines for you. 🙏🏼
"You don't have to be dead, to be a walking dead man". So true. Love your new song, Jimmy. Enjoyed hearing your story and inspiration. God can save us, in spite of ourselves...if only we ask. Your story definitely can save so many, keep on kicking the can down that road. We all need to hear it.
I am blessed to live in a country where men and women like you give up your freedom for mine. I hope you can live the remainder of your life in a better light. Thank you for all that you did, are doing and will do. 🙏🏻
@@xochi8560 servicemen are pawns for rich oligarchs. The Iraq war was a BS war (same as Vietnam) we fought based on false intel provided by Israel. Over 1 million people died. There was no WMD's.

Thank you Mark. Thank you so very much. I still have work to do. I really needed this one.
The best interview yet
Just when I think you couldn’t have a better interview, another comes along.
28 minutes in and this keeps getting crazier
Wow! That's gotta be the most bizarre life story I've yet to watch on here. Geezus Jimmy. Just incredible. Have to watch again.
This dude is absolutely GEEKED.
He mentioned he has ADHD.

That was probably the best testimony and life story I have ever heard . God, never gave up on you brother!! I too am a believer and follow Christ- I am thanking God for His love for you. And, your story Jimmy shows Gods amazing love and crazy good mercy!!! Love you Man!!
I didn't see McAfee coming! lol Thank you Jimmy and Mark. Best to you both.
What an amazing testimony ! Thank you, sir! God bless.
The USS Watson my boyyyy so happy to see how far he's come 🤙
I'm bored. I need this guy in my life. There could never be a dull moment with this guy.
Absolutely extraordinary life and testimony! Praise Yeshua.
I must say.. this was a powerful interview. Thank you so much for telling your story, Jimmy! Thank you for your past, present, and future service. As always, thank you, Mark, for another wonderful interview 🤍
It’s normal to feel this about your brother. I lost my little brother and you mirrored my same regret.
same, my brother just died and I got planets of regret
@@WEFUHDUHI am so sorry 😢
I have 2 little brothers who are MORE than just my little bros. I basically raised them, and I am so sorry for your loss. ❤

It’s pretty deep
Now this is an incredible story, life, incredible man… had me on my toes and never wanted it to end! God Speed Jimmy❤
That Southern Judge.God bless you
What do ya,ll wanna do to this boy.We don’t treat our veterans that way.
That was such a roller coaster to listen to. Really fascinating , could be made into a movie ❤
Very difficult to buy a lighthouse.Especially a good one.God bless you Jimmy & thank you for your service 🫡

Bro I hope you don't become arrogant but WHAT AN AMAZING CHANNEL. Such crazy lives and characters you find, and very entertaining conversations. Thank you so much for doing this.
Shalom from Argentina
Blown away by this interview
I could have listened to Jimmy talk about his life for Hours. I just wish I had as much energy that he used talking for 1 Hr to last me the rest of my life. Jimmy, you are one Hyper Dude. This is a Great Story about a Man who has done it all trying to find Happiness and Balance in his Life, and finally finding God for True Happiness and Love in his life. People will say God doesn’t exist, but when you are down and out and close to Death and cry out for him. You know for a Fact he is real. It’s like a Wave of Peace, Love and Happiness that overwhelms you when God Saves You. You don’t have to be close to death, or down and out to find God, you just have to Truly ask God to be Saved. I hope everyone hearing Jimmy’s message Prays and finds God in their Lives. ❤️
The acting is over the top
over the top to 1.25 playback speed.
Great episode and heck of an interview. Great job to both of you for this episode. Jimmy, awesome...
