My favorite quote from a sniper came from a US sniper taking about the battle for Falluja, Iraq. He was asked by the interviewer "how fast were you getting rounds down range?" and his response was "Fast enough that the enemy didn't like it"
Completely agree. Fuuuucckkkk that's got to be excruciating... Really makes me think twice about some of my "problems", which are pretty insignificant after hearing his story... Helps put things into perspective I suppose
21:45 Mushrooms are a miraculous medicine. After decades of inactivity and disrepute, respectable institutions like Imperial College and Johns Hopkins are resuming research to address things like trauma and addiction (eg 80% success in smoking cessation). Mushrooms + meditation helped me not only deal with my own issues, but also expanded my mind and completely revolutionized my life. It’s be neat to see you guys react to some psychedelic research videos!
Top sniper shot is held by a Canadian Unknown Canadian Special Forces Sniper No one knows the name of this Canadian sniper because he’s still out there, giving terrorists a reason to consider giving up on terrorism altogether - lest they get a bullet they won’t even see coming. This special operator from the great north took down a Taliban fighter in Afghanistan from more than two miles away. Using a McMillan TAC-50 sniper rifle from an elevated position, he fired the shot from nearly twice as far as the weapon’s maximum range. In 10 seconds, it was all over.
Well i didnt expect to tear up from this one, but fuck... im an iraq war vet, and i havent experienced half of what this man has, but i have PTSD still and its hard. I feel ashamed for it seeing what other soldiers have been through. And he is absolutely right... people dont want to be around it. I have my kids and my wife to keep me going when i dont want to live anymore.
You've got to learn not to compare your ptsd to others. I have ptsd from a really bad childhood with extreme abuse but when I compare it to a guy like you who has been through hell, its nothing. A friend of mine has been through hell. Been tortured in his home country, saw his father get killed in front of him. But someone else his story doesnt make your experience less real. I hope you are doing good man, I know this sounds cheesy as fuck but time is all it takes. I thought id never feel good, I hated life and everyone in it. But this year has been different. I feel "normal" got back to work and studying, got rid of my addiction. Still dont have any social contacts but hey I dont feel as depressed anymore. I still have mad anxiety and hypervigilance but it will probably pass too. All you need is time and the right people. I wish you the best man.
PTSD is no joke. My uncle who fought in Vietnam as a minesweeper back in the day has been suffering from it way before they even knew what it was. He literally saw his friends blowing up in front of him on a regular basis. He went on to struggle with pills and alcohol to try and ease the pain, but nothing ever worked. He still breaks down sometimes when he hears a helicopter fly by. God bless him though, he's still kicking at almost 80 years old.
There’s not enough support for our veterans unfortunately, the VA in the US is horrible. My brother’s provider prescribed medicinal marijuana along with CBD oils and that has worked wonders for his short temper and PTSD. He used to come visit and if anyone opened the door while he was asleep he’d jump right up and go into combat mode. Like this guy my brother did multiple tours in Iraq and Afghan plus he was also in Kosovo. His last tour broke him completely, and like this sniper attempted suicide multiple times. Therapy and marijuana helped my brother come out of the fog and as a family we try and support him as best we can. I cannot even begin to understand how they feel but the veterans need a greater support system and better facilities. They’ve sacrificed more than anyone out there and they get the “shite” (as the Brit’s say) end of the deal!!
I've heard that during the Munich Olympics the snipers had spent so much time watching their targets that when the kill shot was called, they hesitated. A sad but necessary job.
Whatever help (if any) he received from the government surely wasn’t enough. It never is. It’s disgraceful how neglected these war-torn veterans are once they come back.
Especially in US. Next no support for a shit load of soldiers basically talked into killing people so they can afford to go to college. Then if them come back all fucked up... "Just let them become another homeless or suicide statistic."
To all my fell Battles(gets) to, I Know this civilian shit can be and even harder to do it while leaving a big piece of you somewhere else but please try to remember you are never ever alone. The same way you fought for your battle buddy to your left a& right then, know that we still fight for each other now.
Everyone hail people like this and loves that they're on your side, but few understand the horinous feelings those people feel for what they did. It's easy to think you want to kill your enemies when you don't have to do it. The problem is that most people that never had to cross that threshold, have no idea how hard it is for most people to deal with the fact that they killed someone, regardless of how justified killing those people was. This guy is great and I can't imagine his anguish but I'd like to shake his hand and show him how much I appreciate him. I'd also like to tell him that his conflicted / uneasy feelings shows God that he did not take a life without thought and he will receive entry into eternal peace.
Was a a 5" MK160 and AN/SPQ-9B tech. Bracketing is a thing. Why our rate badge is a range finder. Azimuth is easy to adjust. Range is harder. gun/cannon is capable of 13 nm
You know this is a good man. I have never seen someone so conscious about what he is doing. He's not bragging nor is he happy. This job grieves him, but he has a greater goal in mind. Now ask an American Sniper the same damn question and watch how completely different their attitude is. .... Ummmmm but is he married? LOL
Wrong. Sorry but you are very ignorant. Americans Japanese Russian Chinese British we are all the same and you will catch a little of everything. Don’t say such ignorant statements as we Are all more than you care to think.
A psychopath is a psychopath irregardless of the rationality behind such actions. Regular folk don't operate this way, that's why these situations are unique to certain people.
Although justified any reason one takes another one's life it changes them forever. Whether you are a soldier, or a citizen with a madman breaking into your home. Even if you are a policeman. Taking someone's life in the line of duty should change you forever and it will and it does. It's always a red flag when it appears not to have changed in individual. God bless the soldier. And God bless my son who did four tours in the Middle East for the American army.
Unfortunately that was the reality for a lot of military folks. Army's weren't equiped to deal with those issues, and you were no longer a capable soldier... So off you go. Sebastian Junger did a great video about veterans, you don't have to react to it, but it's damn sure worth the watch. th-cam.com/video/TGZMSmcuiXM/w-d-xo.html
Did he mention the type of rifle he was using? an AWP maybe? Or maybe something bigger like the .50 caliber sniper rifles. I'm now thinking it was a Barret M82
@@slithery9291 thanks, that too is an impressive rifle, the way he described what he was doing made me doubt, is he using a bolt action rifle? I guess so
This is a great video but i cannot respect Unilad for the title. Its rude that this guy poured his heart into it and all they put was **World record for longest kill**. Its just disrespectful
I think that was the point. Alot of people have heard the story. But, not many have even thought about the individual that did it or what he's been through.
So so much is asked of these amazing men & women and they do it without question. They will only say " it's my job" or in my Dad's case, make a joke. And what do they get in return from our government? Not nearly enough! Barely anything and our poor, brave Vietnam vets got spit on. My Dad was in 82nd airborne in WW11. He was captured and held for 18months until he and another soldier escaped. Anyway, you can imagine what he went through. They are all HEROES and deserve 100% of any and all benefits our country's have to offer. A good percentage of the homeless are Vets. There should be zero homeless before we open the floodgates to millions of illegal aliens. Sorry just my opinion. From an extremely proud daughter.✌❤
React to "Trick Riding at the Ponoka Stampede 2018- Shelby Pierson" on the Shelby Pierson channel. Girls and young ladies trick ride on horses in the USA.
3540 m 2017 Canadian sniper is the world record. Fact. He did have a height advantage he was shooting from a high place. It was in Iraq. So this person doesn't hold the world record.😮
But he did, for a time. The guy in this video is British sniper Craig Harrison who set the record in 2009 with a 338 Lapua Magnum rifle. The longer records since then have all been done with the more powerful 50 BMG rifles.
I’ll admit it, I cried to this man’s story, to much heart ❤️ I felt his pain in his voice and wish him good health.
My favorite quote from a sniper came from a US sniper taking about the battle for Falluja, Iraq. He was asked by the interviewer "how fast were you getting rounds down range?" and his response was "Fast enough that the enemy didn't like it"
It's always a massive reminder to us particularly us blokes that as hard as we may be or think we are the mind can only take so much
Jesus Christ that was a tough watch. But great at the same time. Wow. Just wow. All the very best to him and others like him.
Completely agree. Fuuuucckkkk that's got to be excruciating... Really makes me think twice about some of my "problems", which are pretty insignificant after hearing his story... Helps put things into perspective I suppose
As of May 2017 this brave soldier has the 3rd longest sniper kill. Current record is held by unnamed Canadian special forces sniper at 3540 meters.
Still the longest shot with the rifle he had. The canadian bloke and number 2 guys used 50 cals
That was both compelling and heart wrenching. Thank you for sharing this.
What a compelling interview. A real hero, but at a big cost. I will pray for him, hope he finds peace. 👍🍀
A prayer for this guy and all who have PTSD.
Be thankful for people that make sacrifices like this so that others don't have too...
ok, you can see Daz's face reflected in the TH-cam award.
You’d think he’d be happy about a world record until you realize why he isn’t.
Great reaction. He’s done a follow-up on LadBible’s channel which is really interesting as well.
Heavy stuff in this vid😢 Great reaction per usual Blokes.
God bless this guy and thank you
Well that's one way to start my morning. Honestly it was very interesting to see what these guys go through mentally.
Hero! All the best to him going forward

unfortunately psilocybin is still in the testing phase so it's not available to most people.
By far the most important video the you've shared on this channel.

You should also react to an interview they did with a London gangster
I have a Sniper shirt that reads “You can run, but you’ll die tired”
Idk... super marathon runners can run 250 miles. You don't have that type of reach
You guys should react to "veterans describe killing". It's very interesting and a bit like this video.
I've heard about dogs getting in the way of Veterans trying to shot themselves.
Then A Canadian destroyed the world record AGAIN. 10 second flight time.
The longest confirmed kill was a Canadian who beat the record by nearly 2 km
Craigs story was prior to that surely you only need a modicum of common sense to work that out unless you are Canadian and you feel upset
react to more of this guy and more lad bible videos. Great video as always!
Ex USN, helps me sleep knowing I never killed or injured anyone. We did kill a whale. CG62, but that wasn't my fault.
