Just FYI, the German sniper being shot though the scope (Saving Private Ryan) is based on what Hancock did in reality.
The "bullet through the scope" scene in part 1 of this video was from the 1993 movie "Sniper" with Tom Berenger. I'm sure that was based on Hathcocks' shot as well.
My uncle was lucky to have known him. He wasn’t just an amazing warrior, he was a kind man with a heart of gold. RIP.
I met him before his death when he was wheelchair bound, he was super respected and had a full group of soldiers escorting him around.
MS is an evil disease.
Just a little information you don’t hear the shot before the bullet hits you. It takes two seconds to travel. It probably takes 10 seconds for the sound to reach you.
The guy on the rock wouldn't have heard the shot as the bullet would have been traveling faster than the speed of sound.
On that last mission ..... Vultures, fire ants, blazing Sun, enemy patrols, and everything else he had to endure, Carlos truly held fast to the military creed "Embrace the suck!"
They should have made a movie about Carlos Hathcock with Sam Elliot portraying him, Elliot looks and sounds just like him with the same mannerisms.
Great job with the split on this and doing it right.
WW2 USSR women snipers were absolutely ruthless, and the Germans were very afraid of them.
I read the book at least 30 years ago and still have it.
The bullet got there BEFORE THE SOUND OF THE SHOT. Just the way as it all works with modern ammunition.
There are people you’ve never heard of that have done crazy incredible things and go unnoticed in life.
My husband of 30 years is a former Marine. What he did in the marines i dont know and he can't say!😂 when stopped being active duty we got random medals and awards for over 10 years! Every time the declassified something he and the other guys got the medals they earned! Lol Freaking Marines are absolutely nuts! 😊
I worked with an old man who was a "cattle inspector" in Laos during Vietnam. He had some crazy stories.
Great story and well told
Here for the algorithm and to encourage more of these.
I noticed your look, James, when the French were mentioned about leaving Vietnam. I'm not sure if you know or not, but Vietnam was a French colony from the 1850s to the 1950s. The French had their own Vietnam war, called the First Indochina War (1946-1954). The French were defeated during the battle of Dien Bien Phu (1954), and French President Charles de Gaulle warned US President John F Kennedy in 1961 that Vietnam would be a "bottomless military and political swamp." But his advice went unheeded. America started getting involved in Vietnam because of fear of Communism prevailing in the country.
There's a deleted scene from the movie "Apocalypse Now," titled "French Plantation" here on TH-cam. If you watch it with subtitles on, its a fascinating scene of a French family having stayed behind after France left Indochina, chiding America's decision to be in Vietnam.
Thanks for the wonderful reaction
James the Business insider channel has a series called the making of a sniper you would be interested in
That M2 50 caliber machine gun weighs 84 pounds. With the tripod it weighs 128 pounds. They didn't use it with infantry. They used it in vehicles like the Jeep, 2 1/2 ton truck, and on static fortifications. In WW2 and Korea it was transported by infantry - my grandfather was part of a heavy weapons unit in Germany in 45.
If Fat Electrician is now on your viewing schedule, be careful when you take a sip of Arizona Ice Tea while watch, least it squirt out your nose
The fat electrician just did a video about Arizona tea.
Well played with the fat files reference.
Someone probably mentioned it in the comments, but in "Saving Private Ryan" When "Jackson" (the American sniper) takes out the German sniper in the bell tower shooting through his scope into this head .. that was a nod to what Carlos "White Feather" Hathcock did in Vietnam.
Thank you
Thank you for presenting a great video reaction from The Fat Electrician. Hugs to Archie from all your fans!
That shot has since been broken twice. Still like Nick said that shot stood for about 40 years. That female Russian sniper he mentions is the fifth currently deadliest sniper in history by order of kills. The video I sent you in part 1, I think, she was ranked as the 3rd on the list. The book One Shot, One Kill is a book written by the guys who started the Marine Corps Scout/Sniper program. It features several of Carlos’ stories including the scope shot and the one of him taking out the general from the field. Nick didn’t mention it but during that crawl he came eye to eye with a snake and couldn’t move until the snake left so he wasn’t bitten.
Yeah y'all going to check out that video of them actually recreating the shot. You guys should really check it out. It's actually pretty cool and crazy😂
Ballistic Highspeed My Rpg-7 exploded is crazy, they had an RPG-7 fail/blow-up seconds after trigger pull on one of them. and they got it all on High speed. He survived and is all healed up now, but was so lucky!! they went on the podcast nick( the fat electrician) is apart of "Unsubscribe Podcast" and told the story.
Fire ant bites itch like crazy. That would be horrible.
You should check out his Roy benevedez video. The things that man survived is absolutely insane
Great video from y'all❤😂🎉
I did see a video recently where it was proven.
I doubt he's the best sniper ever because I think the best sniper ever you would never see on film. Being on film sort of goes against his skill set. Not serious at all. Just making a joke. Mad respect for any vet.
You guys should watch the video about the mosqito
I love this story I have the book. Millie is looking Native American.
Love your videos and Fat Electrician Great Reaction
The video on both other channels are great.
He was good, yes. But it is an American-centric view that he is the best sniper ever. For the one who holds that title, check out Simo Hayha... The White Death. For all the Americans who will respond, I am not degrading his accomplishments. But he wasn't the best.
Edit: 542 confirmed kills with iron sights... so the scope wouldn't give away his position.
You two should look into the Women's Auxiliary Service Pilots (WASP) of WW2
Air corps, the Air force didn't exist until after WW2. It was The Army Air Corps before it became the Air Force.
And if I'm not mistaken, it was the Women's Auxillary Service Pilots.
FYI: When he puts on the helmet and the keyboard on his shoulder he is mockingso called keyboard warriors
Not even close to being the best sniper.
Check out Simo Häyhä, known as The White Death. He was a Finnish sniper who had over 400 confirmed kills in less than 4 months, in the dead of winter, against Soviet invaders.
He used a rifle with an iron sight, as opposed to a scope, to present a smaller target and would bury himself in snowbanks as camoflauge. He averaged 5 per day, in temperatures anywhere from - 4° to -40° below zero.
He contiued until a Russian bullet hit him in the face, shattering his jaw. The war ended a week later.
Simo Häyhä would go on to live another 62 years, spending most of his working life farming and hunting moose.
You two have aged like 100 years in 2😲
WTF????
You don’t have to listen to any of it!
Yall need to do roy benevedes probably didnt spell that right
Please react to his video of the limping lady!
Very enjoyable, borrowed from this narrator's channel, whatever it takes to get recognition.
Hi
@@andrewchristopher7138 the latest we’ve ever seen you ❤️
First! Great 2 videos guys!
I hate stuff like this - do we need to listen to sniper stories - we have enough of this at home. Surprised you two are into this.
Yes more stories of heros.
Ok laurie, some people actually appreciate our troops and their stories. thanks. my grandpa was a marine sniper in vietnam, how about just DONT WATCH THIS? go watch something else ma’am instead of being like hitler and trying to force them to watch something else (sorry to be so over-exaggerative)
@@timesthree5757exactly
Of course you don't have to listen to these stories You are absolutely free to scroll right past them But since they have over a half a million views on Fat Electrician videos some people must like them
Laurie this is a variety channel. If you find a video you don't want to watch you're free not to watch it. I do that all the time.
Chris Kyle better
What????
More well known because he was more recent but not better.Different wars different times and much better weapons available for Chris Kyle. I am in no way saying he was not great but it was different. RIP Chris Kyle
6:17 underrated joke 😂😂
To be fair have you ever seen fat electrician and legs in the same room? 🧐
The fat electrician Nick used to be an army medic
Our American Indian troops were amazing! And our Japanese American troops were amazing! And our Irish American troops were amazing! And our black American troops were amazing! They were often gun fodder, but they went all in! What heroes! And let's do not forget our Hispanic troops!! Our Italian troops! So amazing that all Americans felt this country was so great and worth fighting for! ❤😊
theyre all just american why even mention ethnicities 😂 Lol im not calling u racist or anything im just wondering why any of that matters
@@chrisvibz4753 Because leftist do in a victim mentality! They never show how much all Americans no matter their race, religion, ethnicity came here and fought for a better life and literally were willing to die for it. It's not shown in the msm how much better their lives were here from where they came from. And today the media wants to turn all these people into victims and tell them they can't make it here in this free society. And that's bs and evil when they try to separate Americans along ethnic, race, religious, or gender lines. And such and insult to all those who died for this ideal and country of suffered what Carlos did! They all died or lived together!
At the risk of speaking for someone else, I think that was her point. At least that's how I interpreted it, especially since so many were listed, not just one or two. With all the different hyphenations, the common thread was...American. And keep in mind, the US doesn't corner the market on terrific militaries, though ours may be the strongest. I've worked with a number of different nationalities, and all have been top notch.
@chrisvibz4753 Because America is the most ethnically and racially diverse country in the world, and every single group has contributed to this country and literally died for this country. That was my point. Nothing racist about that. I'm paying tribute to that. You are reading my comment very wrong.
