I mean most intelligent people, especially at that time period, either became scientists in R&D or just went to a division that focused on the back lines. Hell, in modern days most of the smartest recruits go for either the air force or some sort of armory position. One of which is very likely to keep you very far away from the front lines and the other means you're not the first choice when it comes to making infantry units.
It's less about intelligence and more about ingenuity. Rogers saw that brute forcing the problem didn't work (climbing the pole), so he looked at the problem from another angle. If he couldn't get up to the flag, then he would bring the flag down to him instead.
Imagine 10++ years later with new recruits Drill Sergeant: “Nobody’s got that flag since Captain America himself!” Random cadet: “So you gotta have super strength to get it? Man, it’s hopeless!” Drill Sergeant: *smirks*
Shows you from the very beginning that Steve Rogers wasn't just a soldier that asked to be told where to shoot. He always looked for another way, and THAT'S what makes Captain America so great.

just because you have asthma doesn't mean you can't keep up, the dependence on medication in a warzone deffo means you can't serve (unfortunately) but many asthmatics are great athletes. David Beckham has asthma, 8% of Olympic athletes in 2010 had asthma. I manage to still run, train muay thai three times a week, go rock climbing and never have any issues besides mild asthma symptoms in Spring and Autumn or maybe the start of summer which is easily controlled with medication (seasons changing and pollen count being the triggers). The difference between chronic asthma and well controlled asthma is quite pronounced and most folks I know with it can exercise and hit average peak flow readings if they look after their asthma properly. That being said, the need to control it is a significant disadvantage. Imagine trying to fill a prescription in Helmand province or being woken up by gunfire and having to find your preventer inhaler or even worse, the reliever inhaler before you put your boots on and wade in, there in lies the rub imo...
@@jasonkelly7951 Yeah, I agree, I have asthma too and I can keep up with enough exercise and effort (Mine was first more chronic then got better control over it overtime). Of course, Steve Rogers has a ton of other medical barriers too from heart problems to high blood pressure to even Scarlett Fever (Dude has a whole list when he was trying to enlist), which does make his actual ability to barely keep up more impressive.
@@jasonkelly7951 Being in good shape dramatically helps keep asthma under control. Then it normally requires more than exercise to trigger it (wind/allergies/cold).
@Zain844 Well, it was important to that Project, at the least. I think the good Colonel was willing to give in to the Doctor's insistence because he wanted a Super Soldier with brains, too. He was just being a stubborn old Army man with his ways.
One small detail I wish they show a little longer was when everybody else was talking and standing around, Cap was organizing all his war strategy books to read. That's why he's the smartest strategically and why all the avengers goto him for leadership. They don't call him the man with the plan for nothing
well, he kinda cheated it. You actually should use the sand around it to get a better grip and make your way up, which even someone relatively weak can do with the right technique. The flag test was always about strategy and smarts. Steve just saw a 3rd option, which is pretty much what his character is all about. He will always aim for the 3rd option. You have Tony suggesting that you can stop Thanos by sacrificing people because otherwise they would die anyway, basically the kill 1 person to save millions of people, while cap instantly says that he doesnt want to trade lives. It was even because of that why he jumped on the grenade. You had people running away, you had people covering people they thought were more important, and you had Steve jump on the grenade.
Well, yes, but being worthy requires more than just being willing to sacrifice yourself to save others. Humility is important, as well. Steve was at risk of not having that with his single-handedly saving the 107th prisoners and then his constant successes against Red Skull's facilities. But then he lost Bucky, and then he learned he can't win every cause, every effort. That is what allowed him to be willing to fly the plane into the ice, the realization it was the only play and that attempting anything more would be futile. (When you consider the autopilot likely only allowed changes in altitude, and not heading)
You are wrong, steve became worthy when he matured and stopped arguing with stark all the time. he rose above stark. there is a video on youtube called "when did captain america become worthy" or something like that. its a good video
17 years ago, someone did exactly what Steve did. Shows intelligence and ingenuity. I bet it's designed that way. The Sergeant likely comes out here every morning and evening to raise and lower the flag, respectfully; always terminally dumbfounded that none of the recruits have figured it out.
@mandellorian ... Ok, maybe not EXACTLY what Steve did, because you're right. You would have to walk it down so it doesn't touch the ground, but pulling the pin was the best solution. Thumbs up for catching that; I'd forgotten that when making the comment.
@mandellorian The point of this scene is to show that not every problem has a straightforward direct solution. You'll need to think outside the box. The Sargeant only said to get the flag, he didn't say by which means. As long as you accomplish the outcome, any means is fair game.
One thing about Steve here i don't think gets enough credit is despite his medical history which shows a clear weak physical constitution, he still just about keeps up through training. Sure he may be lackluster in performance compared to everyone else but the fact that he actually manages to just about keep up really shows his determination despite his disadvantrages.
That is the fabric a hero is made of. It's not about overpowering your enemy, a tidal wave can do that. It's about your human integrity, courage, ingenuity, generosity. It is a moral concept, not phisical. Ghandi was no less hero than Mac Arthur. You give power to an unworthy person, and what you get is a villain.
Had ROTC in high school, Steve is asthmatic and in my senior year I was recovering from asthma - when I got back into it, commandant gave us 10 laps on an uphill loop; it was hell but at the very least reconditioned my lungs. Have to wonder what kind of hell Steve went through here being asthmatic and having to go through actual military training
That's definitely part of why they pick him. If he's able to keep up with those guys when he's super weak imagine what he'll be able to do with superhuman strength.
Hes actually started last but came up so fucking fast he caught up to black phanter which has op bullshitting power of the black Panther so thats why he came 2nd
I love this scene. If you weren’t already immediately cheering for Steve in every scene this is the scene that makes you absolutely love him as a character. I love how he still thanks the drill sergeant too after handing him the flag lol.
you'd think that crap that guy pulled with intentionally trapping steve under the barbed wire would have gotten him into serious trouble. intentionally sabotaging your comrade in the field like that would have gotten people killed.
Agreed- and he would have refused the jeep ride after securing the flag. Nobody in that type of training would get in a vehicle while the rest of his unit was still running.
@@DonohueTom They weren't a unit, they were being evaluated for a special assignment which they were only going to pick one man for. After the evaluation was over, most of the guys there would probably never see each other again.
Gotta love that about Steve. It's not about how you solve a problem, so as long as the objective or mission is completed. That's a smart soldier right there.
i like how all the soldiers look so dumbfounded that they didnt even bother to see if they could lower the flag another way ... they just assumed it meant climb not think .... best show of what actually understanding the instructions means . he said get the flag to him and they ride back ... he didnt say climb ... he said get the flag ...
Him and iron man. I loved seeing cap go from someone who could kick anyone’s ass to someone who won’t just to get things done more efficiently. And iron man became tolerable
This is where she first noticed Steve. Why work harder when you can do this the smart way. Steve always at the end being bullied but still gets on going.
Dead King in Hell I had a similar situation a few years ago. Had a tough job, and was a female. I had to remove a big orange cloth weather vane from a massive pole and just pulling the pin was not allowed. So looking at it I got a plane tug (vehicle to pull Cessnas) and used it to SLOWLY and safely lower the pole down so I could remove the vane and replace it with a new one. When I was done, I used the tug to slowly raise the pole back up. When I was done I was surprised to see everyone looking at me. Including the boss. Clearly this was not what he had in mind. But I did the job safely and did not take long. He gave me a small lecture about “that’s not what the tug was for”. But later I saw one of the other guys copy me!😅 Brains over brawn works almost every time!

@@XpVersusVista he hit her up unnecessarily. He deserved it. Moreover, I personally wouldn’t feel a single bit of pity if a woman in the army got punched by a male because she was unnecessarily trying to make him feel uncomfortable and basically se*ualizing him.
Eh, depends on what lesson the drill instructor feels like reinforcing that day and how far along you are in the training. If you're done cutting tall reeds, you start rewarding sharp cookies.
Exactly! Only those who don't know the army would think that the random smart-ass would do that and walk (or get a ride, in the case lol). I served in the army for a year in Brazil, 19th south infantry battalion. A motorized assault infantry, patrolled borders with argentina and uruguay. Thousands of square miles of forests and farms, we caught a lot of bad guys smuggling in and out, all sorts of things. weapons, drugs, money, endangered rare animals... I applied just for 2008.
The best of the best.... they look for smarts as well as strength. If you are smart but not strong enough they will find a place where you can do the best for them. Dumb and strong are easy to come by, smart that's rarer.

This scene proves Steve can curve his mindset and outthink people in away no one can predict, which was also why he was able to come up with "Hail Hydra" the second time he got into the elevator.
That Old camps new recruits are probably scratching their heads on how cap did it ("oh he just jumped really high because his a superhuman or something")
Not really. He cheated. Everyone was told to fall into formation. At this point, the contest is over. Rogers continued the competition after everyone else including himself was told to stop.

Cause some people are uneducated dimwits that cant exist outside memes so "stfu" is all their half addled brain can muster with pew pie telling them what they think
Actually most people self impose constraints. They are not dumb, just influenced by their education and upbringing. A lot comes from school when you answer a question technically correctly but the teacher marks you wrong because that isn't the answer they were looking for or you used a different method to get there. "Get me that flag" heavily implies it is supposed to be a challenge. The reward of getting a ride back reinforces that. Pulling the pin and dropping the pole is too easy of a solution, therefor it must not be allowed. That would be cheating. There is even debate in these comments what would really happen in the real military. Some say Rogers would be applauded, some say Rogers would be punished for being a smart ass.

And yet, its clear that those who do are also hated and rejected by their common peers. If you think, you definitely stand alone in this world.
The reason there was such a rigorous screening process for the super soldier serum is it does not only enhance your physical abilities it also amplifies personality traits. Any trace of instability would be amplified into a full-blown psychosis when the serum was administered

I always loved the colonels introduction, immediately you know he trusts Carter which tells the audience she's obviously a great agent with a great track record He praises Carter for punching recruits And puts Hodge in his place
“Hey what’s this in this unlocked drawer?” “That’s a sheet of Vibranium. It’s the rarest metal on Earth. That’s all we have. It took several expeditions to remote parts of the arctic where several people died to get that.” “Can I take it into a war zone as my only weapon?” “Sure, want a paint job?”
If it hadn’t been a time of war and in modern day, Hodge would have been reprimanded and punished for actively and deliberately sabotaging a fellow soldier. This was also one of the main reasons why the doctor didn’t want Hodge to be the first person for the project. You give him that kind of power and he will either join the enemy when it gets tough to continue or he’ll develop a god complex after the war, thinking himself invincible.

"Nobody's got that flag in 17 years."
Doesn't say much for the intelligence of their recruits, does it?
I mean most intelligent people, especially at that time period, either became scientists in R&D or just went to a division that focused on the back lines.
Hell, in modern days most of the smartest recruits go for either the air force or some sort of armory position. One of which is very likely to keep you very far away from the front lines and the other means you're not the first choice when it comes to making infantry units.
@AKB All Star how many soldiers do you know?
It's less about intelligence and more about ingenuity. Rogers saw that brute forcing the problem didn't work (climbing the pole), so he looked at the problem from another angle. If he couldn't get up to the flag, then he would bring the flag down to him instead.

Shows you from the very beginning that Steve Rogers wasn't just a soldier that asked to be told where to shoot. He always looked for another way, and THAT'S what makes Captain America so great.

For an asthmatic, he is surprisingly resilient. Being able to barely keep up with the other soldiers is really impressive
just because you have asthma doesn't mean you can't keep up, the dependence on medication in a warzone deffo means you can't serve (unfortunately) but many asthmatics are great athletes. David Beckham has asthma, 8% of Olympic athletes in 2010 had asthma. I manage to still run, train muay thai three times a week, go rock climbing and never have any issues besides mild asthma symptoms in Spring and Autumn or maybe the start of summer which is easily controlled with medication (seasons changing and pollen count being the triggers). The difference between chronic asthma and well controlled asthma is quite pronounced and most folks I know with it can exercise and hit average peak flow readings if they look after their asthma properly. That being said, the need to control it is a significant disadvantage. Imagine trying to fill a prescription in Helmand province or being woken up by gunfire and having to find your preventer inhaler or even worse, the reliever inhaler before you put your boots on and wade in, there in lies the rub imo...
You know he is Steve Rogers
@@jasonkelly7951 Yeah, I agree, I have asthma too and I can keep up with enough exercise and effort (Mine was first more chronic then got better control over it overtime). Of course, Steve Rogers has a ton of other medical barriers too from heart problems to high blood pressure to even Scarlett Fever (Dude has a whole list when he was trying to enlist), which does make his actual ability to barely keep up more impressive.
@@prestonhong4850 The most decorated US soldier ever was about the same size.
@@jasonkelly7951 Being in good shape dramatically helps keep asthma under control. Then it normally requires more than exercise to trigger it (wind/allergies/cold).

Carlos Ribeiro add a extra 0 to that 50
One small detail I wish they show a little longer was when everybody else was talking and standing around, Cap was organizing all his war strategy books to read. That's why he's the smartest strategically and why all the avengers goto him for leadership. They don't call him the man with the plan for nothing

I love how Peggy smiled when Steve figured out the flag test. That was probably the moment she started liking him.
well, he kinda cheated it. You actually should use the sand around it to get a better grip and make your way up, which even someone relatively weak can do with the right technique.
The flag test was always about strategy and smarts. Steve just saw a 3rd option, which is pretty much what his character is all about. He will always aim for the 3rd option. You have Tony suggesting that you can stop Thanos by sacrificing people because otherwise they would die anyway, basically the kill 1 person to save millions of people, while cap instantly says that he doesnt want to trade lives. It was even because of that why he jumped on the grenade. You had people running away, you had people covering people they thought were more important, and you had Steve jump on the grenade.
@@Predated2 we dont need a 200 word essay...
Nah bro More like the moment he came out of the machine ripped asf is when she started liking him😂
Predated O I mean it’s not cheated if he didn’t say he can’t do it lol
malachi areta that’s what I was about to say also lol
As soon as he jumped on the grenade to sacrifice himself, he became worthy of mjolnir.
Well, yes, but being worthy requires more than just being willing to sacrifice yourself to save others. Humility is important, as well. Steve was at risk of not having that with his single-handedly saving the 107th prisoners and then his constant successes against Red Skull's facilities. But then he lost Bucky, and then he learned he can't win every cause, every effort. That is what allowed him to be willing to fly the plane into the ice, the realization it was the only play and that attempting anything more would be futile. (When you consider the autopilot likely only allowed changes in altitude, and not heading)

th-cam.com/video/6vD7JWUJrGo/w-d-xo.html here it is
17 years ago, someone did exactly what Steve did. Shows intelligence and ingenuity. I bet it's designed that way. The Sergeant likely comes out here every morning and evening to raise and lower the flag, respectfully; always terminally dumbfounded that none of the recruits have figured it out.
I wonder who did that 17 years ago
@mandellorian ... Ok, maybe not EXACTLY what Steve did, because you're right. You would have to walk it down so it doesn't touch the ground, but pulling the pin was the best solution. Thumbs up for catching that; I'd forgotten that when making the comment.
@mandellorian The point of this scene is to show that not every problem has a straightforward direct solution. You'll need to think outside the box. The Sargeant only said to get the flag, he didn't say by which means. As long as you accomplish the outcome, any means is fair game.

One thing about Steve here i don't think gets enough credit is despite his medical history which shows a clear weak physical constitution, he still just about keeps up through training. Sure he may be lackluster in performance compared to everyone else but the fact that he actually manages to just about keep up really shows his determination despite his disadvantrages.
That is the fabric a hero is made of. It's not about overpowering your enemy, a tidal wave can do that. It's about your human integrity, courage, ingenuity, generosity.
It is a moral concept, not phisical.
Ghandi was no less hero than Mac Arthur.
You give power to an unworthy person, and what you get is a villain.
Had ROTC in high school, Steve is asthmatic and in my senior year I was recovering from asthma - when I got back into it, commandant gave us 10 laps on an uphill loop; it was hell but at the very least reconditioned my lungs. Have to wonder what kind of hell Steve went through here being asthmatic and having to go through actual military training
That's definitely part of why they pick him. If he's able to keep up with those guys when he's super weak imagine what he'll be able to do with superhuman strength.

I had a similar situation a few years ago. Had a tough job, and was a female.
I had to remove a big orange cloth weather vane from a massive pole and just pulling the pin was not allowed.
So looking at it I got a plane tug (vehicle to pull Cessnas) and used it to SLOWLY and safely lower the pole down so I could remove the vane and replace it with a new one.
When I was done, I used the tug to slowly raise the pole back up.
When I was done I was surprised to see everyone looking at me. Including the boss.
Clearly this was not what he had in mind. But I did the job safely and did not take long.
He gave me a small lecture about “that’s not what the tug was for”.
But later I saw one of the other guys copy me!😅

Exactly! Only those who don't know the army would think that the random smart-ass would do that and walk (or get a ride, in the case lol). I served in the army for a year in Brazil, 19th south infantry battalion. A motorized assault infantry, patrolled borders with argentina and uruguay.

Actually most people self impose constraints. They are not dumb, just influenced by their education and upbringing. A lot comes from school when you answer a question technically correctly but the teacher marks you wrong because that isn't the answer they were looking for or you used a different method to get there.
"Get me that flag" heavily implies it is supposed to be a challenge. The reward of getting a ride back reinforces that. Pulling the pin and dropping the pole is too easy of a solution, therefor it must not be allowed. That would be cheating. There is even debate in these comments what would really happen in the real military. Some say Rogers would be applauded, some say Rogers would be punished for being a smart ass.

@@rounak471 Now you have me thinking XD
Pedialyte,sounds like something a pedophile uses to find little kids in the dark.
I wonder who got the flag
rounak yeah same
Can we also appreciate that Peggy's form was flawless when she dropped Hodge - she can throw a proper punch.
Tony: I think id just cut the wire.
Steve: Always a way out, huh?
"Steve finds the way out for the flag"
I'm pretty sure that line is meant to refer to self sacrifice risking everything for the sake of others.
To be fair Avengers 1 was not abgood movie for Cap as it kinda didnt pay attention to the other parts of his character shown in Cap TFA
@@insertnamehere2746 that's Joss Whedon fault. He saw every character as one dimensional besides Tony.
Cap becames a grumpy conservative with the mind of a 80 Year old.
Thor becames arrogant and violent again, totally ignoring his previous film

"Nobody has gotten that flag in 17yrs"
20 seconds later...
Skinny Steve: "Take your boring flag, I need my ride"
And Peggy falls in love.
now steve has lived his dream life pegging peggy
Dark Knight Lmao
He cheated to get the flag, just like he cheated on Peggy
Alex H what? He didn’t cheat, he just had to get the flag, didn’t say how lmao. Technically, they weren’t dating either.
@@igeruswilson2654 Of course he cheated. His drill sergeant gave a direct order to, "fall in, get in formation." He completely ignores this order from a superior officer and goes to get the flag. Meanwhile all the other participants in the game followed the order. This is like running into the end zone after the game is over and everyone has left the field and saying that the touchdown counts. No it doesn't, the game was over.
This reminds me of the scene in Men in Black when he drags the table across the room to write on. Being able to think outside the box.
David! That my thought, also! Great minds!!😁
MIB is good too.
David conway
And BOTH movies had Tommy Lee Jones in the cast!
Kay: Agent Jay, this is agent S. Our finest men in black.
Jay: Weren't you Captain America?
Steve: Son, just don't.
Have you ever wondered if perhaps that whole situation is intended? Meaning that in a programmed world it the person who CAN THINK that is usually the most valuable, but also dont forget, that person is also THE MOST FEARED.
I think maybe these two clips in question are trying very hard but yet very candlestinely to promote self initiative and actual thinking. And yet, its clear that those who do are also hated and rejected by their common peers. If you think, you definitely stand alone in this world.
This is like that scene in Mulan, minus the part about actually managing to climb to the top of the pole through hard work and perseverance.
*music with jackie chan singing slowly blends in*
@@Empika And she was the only one who eventually realized what Shan means when he said you needed discipline and strength to reach the arrow,
I guess work smarter, not harder
Honestly the first time I've seen this scene i thought it would have been something like that 😂
Luckily I was wrong
It's more of a point that Steve had the courage and ingenuity to be a superhero before the serum.
The reason there was such a rigorous screening process for the super soldier serum is it does not only enhance your physical abilities it also amplifies personality traits.
Any trace of instability would be amplified into a full-blown psychosis when the serum was administered
So bad that it will manifest by turning your head into a red skull.
Or in simple terms its an Upgrade as in it doesn't change the software completely but simply "enhances" it
As we see in a much later movie and another guy is given the super soldier who wasn't "bad" but turned arrogant and lazy in a way he did not quite seem to be before.
@@suzannehartmann946 You referring to John Walker?
@@RinJackson Walker is an absolute saint regarding the things he went through unfairly, that the show so desperately attempted to frame him as the bad guy was an absolute shame.
skinny steve rodgers was worthy of holding mjolnir
Mjonier would have crushed him
captain america vs iron man th-cam.com/video/u0dD4mXkAlg/w-d-xo.html
lol no
xandercorp Why not?
He was worthy the entire time because he's genuine and is willing to put his life on the line with no hesitation.
When I was in the infantry in the 70s, we had a guy in my platoon who was about 5 feet tall, a little over 100 pounds maybe. What he lacked in physical strength, he more than made up for with heart and determination. Grunts like him were a pleasure to work with.
Drill sergeant: NO ONE HAS GOTTEN THAT FLAG IN 17 YEAR
Steve Rogers: hold my sandwich
Maybe "Hold my inhaler."
@@AlinaTowers lmao
Hold my flag !
Someone get this kid a sandwich
@@AlinaTowers more like hold my cigarette lol (the 40s were wack yo)
I always loved the colonels introduction, immediately you know he trusts Carter which tells the audience she's obviously a great agent with a great track record
He praises Carter for punching recruits
And puts Hodge in his place
he doesn't praise her, he just acknowledges that she is doing it. I see you are breaking them is, is way different than way to break them in
@@royce9018 I think the premise is the same
@@royce9018 “I can see you are breaking in the candidates, that’s good!” Sounds like praising
@@famguy218 There absolutely no doubt in his mind that Hodges did; in fact, deserved to get punched for his behavior.
@@royce9018 "That's good" is more than tacit approal
From a garbage cover to a steel shield into the vibranium shield
“Hey what’s this in this unlocked drawer?”
“That’s a sheet of Vibranium. It’s the rarest metal on Earth. That’s all we have. It took several expeditions to remote parts of the arctic where several people died to get that.”
“Can I take it into a war zone as my only weapon?”
“Sure, want a paint job?”

Don't forget the car door
Blue Flash And to Wielding a God’s Hammer
If it hadn’t been a time of war and in modern day, Hodge would have been reprimanded and punished for actively and deliberately sabotaging a fellow soldier. This was also one of the main reasons why the doctor didn’t want Hodge to be the first person for the project. You give him that kind of power and he will either join the enemy when it gets tough to continue or he’ll develop a god complex after the war, thinking himself invincible.

I like the smile on Carter when he says "thank you sir".
