Alright knuckle-draggers, what movies should we do next?!

When Mat was in Ranger Bat his team didnt use flashbangs, he would just step in the door and smile and blind the shit out of everyone

“Veterans are talking....” 👍🤣

I actually had already did the research to find out about those two snipers in Black Hawk Down. Its hard to think they knew they would die but they did it anyway, that bravery on a whole different level.

R.I.P. to Shughart and Gordon. Some of the bravest men to ever walk the earth

When I was in the police academy, we had a guy (Army veteran) who was asked by an instructor if his weapon had a safety during inspection. He held up his finger and responded "this is my safety." Everyone (including the instructor) laughed. We were still laughing while he did about 100 pushups.

Mat’s teeth are brighter than my future

"No one's that bad a shot." I almost peed myself laughing when he said that.

You need to do 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi

Bring in a couple of Coast Guard veterans, and review “The Guardian.”

So, for reference. I was in C 3/15th Mechanized Infantry out of Ft Steward. I was in Division ready force when Blackhawk down occurred. We were wandering about at about 10pm at night and told we were on alert but not why. They had us sign in and got the the stock room. A major shows up, tells us that our supported unit has gotten involved in a firefight. We will be loading up on a C5 and flying to their location. This of course sounds like a drill. He then proceeds to tell the infantry platoon that the country has 3 diseases in the air, 5 diseases in the ground and 4 in the water system. So, we are never to lay on the ground or drink the water. They have us zero our weapons and load up on the C5. We are all looking at each other like we are utterly confused. We still have no clue were we are going. The area in the upper part of the C5 is like an airline, when you load 18 men into they have no clue what to do. About halfway across the Atlantic, someone walks into the area and tells us we will be landing in Rome, refueling and our next stop is Cairo. Our final destination is Mogadishu, Somalia. None of us know what this place is or anything about it. Note: this is all pre-internet. When we finally land in Somalia. They tell us the firefight has been going on for all 18 hours of our flight. We are to get the two bradleys off the back of the plane and duck them in behind some Conexes to get ammo. We pull off the plane.. and the first thing we see is an E-7 running along in Grey Army shorts and T-shirt for his morning run. The entire airport feels like there is people running all over it but no one seems like there is a fire fight going on. There is a bunch of guys exhausted over to the side but that is about it. What we find out later is that 10th mountain and the rangers are at the stadium and all of these guys are the supply chain. We supported the Rangers going out looking for the 2 dead rangers and the pilot the following 3 nights. Rangers cannot afford to have two of their numbers missing. They just simply will not allow that to happen. 10 days later, two spectre gunships show up, drop leaflets to not be in Adid's compound that evening on the town. They rain down death for 12 hours throughout the night. The compound is 1 brick high in the morning. I am on guard duty at the airport. 6 somalians drag 2 bodies and 1 stretcher upto the front gate. I left there 6 months later in March.

“How every hero and villain in each movie is a professional race car driver.” I laughed hard, because he’s so right.

You know, it may have been a minor part of this exchange, but my favorite part was when Mat showed absolute adoration and respect to the medal winners. You just can't represent our military or our country any better than that.

Why the hell is everyone on this channel just the coolest?

Keep this up guys, the world needs THIS!

I wasn’t playing call of duty but I looked up Army Master Sgt. Gordon and Army Sgt. 1st Class Randall Shughart. Most amazing article I’ve ever read about two men who literally chose to gave their lives for their buddies. Thank y’all for your service and thank you to anyone who has, is, or will be serving.

The M9 pistol is a fine sidearm when it's properly cared for. I joined the Army just when we were transferring from the 1911. The 1911 that I shot was a POS. The "floating barrel" was swinging in the wind and hitting the target was considered lucky. The Berreta was a God's send. After 20+ years of abuse and crappy armorers who aren't gunsmiths. It's not suprising that the M9 gets a bad rap. My first M9 in '92 ran like a Cadillac.

A much lesser known hero in Mogadishu. Brad halling. He was with Gordon and stutghart. He lost his leg in the battle

Gordon and Randy, both received the Medal of Honor. Legends never die.

The Outpost was a really good movie. Great job on the realism. It really captured the story in my opinion.

When I was with II MEF CASEVAC I had a chief in the Navy, switched over from the Army at some point in the late 90's. He will not watch this movie, because he was there. He told us some of the craziest war stories, but would never talk about this.

Got the Unit memorial Scholarship a few years back. Was awarded to me in memory MSG Gordon. His widow presented me the scholarship with a full biography and personal note as well as dog tags that read “in memory of MSG Gary Gordon”. Knew their story prior to receiving the scholarship, made it very special.

"Oh you think you're funny?" "Yeah I do. One day Im gonna be a KZfaqr and react to Black Hawk Down" Lmao my sides

Rip Gary Gordon and Randy Shughart. When I first saw this movie my friends were moved by their sacrifice and enlisted when they got out of high school. This movie played a big part in that.

Ugh, the moment you said The Outpost being released in March and most of America being in lock down. Read the book! Definitely worth it!

“You don’t get hungover from Heroine” lol 😂 love these react videos! Richard keep them coming!

Would be really interested to see a reaction by you guys to the new Chris Hemsworth movie "Extraction".

Turned off my Xbox after playing CoD to hear, “turn off call of duty”

"Poor man's Owen Wilson." More like the director's director friend. That's Spike Jonze, son! He did great, though. Love this series. Please keep it up!

One of the few scenes in Black Hawk Down directly from Mark Bowden's book was the "This is my safety" line. It's a direct quote.

You guys should react to the whole Generation Kill series

I laughed so hard when Jariko did the middle eastern guy impression and find out that it sounds exactly the same.

Do “War Machine” with Brad Pitt, “Overlord”(horror), Aliens (sci-fi), “The Thing” with Kurt Russell, and “Inglorious Bastards”

"They're gonna torture him. They need some Marky Mark intel" 😂😂😂

When you reacted to Black Hawk Down i got really exited because my grandpa helped organize that mission and he told me all the back story to the mission

I’m not gonna lie, I watched The Outpost not too long ago on Netflix, and I cried at the end lmao That movie really did serve justice for that battle, it was incredible.

Just to prove a point I bought a commercial M9. Ran it to 3000 rounds of crappy ammo before it slowed down and had a ftf from carbon in the grease.

You need to watch “Heat” especially the scene where they are leaving the bank

Army Rangers react to "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" next please

My father was part of task force ranger and operation restore the hope, or operation restore the peace. I was three years old when we dropped my dad off at what looked like a hanger I walked with my dad to his locker with my sister and mother where we said our goodbyes, my dad made it home but many did not. These brave men gave everything they had. Thank you for your service gentleman.

Matt isnt angry thats just straight respect for Shugart and Gordon the some of the most badass men to ever live

Alot of movies and mini series has inspired me to be in the military in general like: The Pacific, Band of Brothers, The Great Raid, Green Berets, Saving Private Ryan, 13 hrs, Tears of The Sun and Black Hawk Down. The movies that inspired me to be a n Army Ranger are: Black Hawk Down and Saving Private Ryan.

Just watched your KZfaq video and stumbled on your channel. Great stuff, I’m an Army veteran myself, 14 years. I wasn’t high speed like you guys. I was more low key operations. Did more of the training ops side of stuff like NTC FT Irwin etc. You guys rock though and I appreciate your service and what Black Rifle Coffee Company does for veterans. Your coffee is great too, has kept a lot of us third shift law enforcement guys going during those last few hours of a 12 hr shift. I’ll definitely make sure to hit the thumbs up button. Keep doing what you guys do best and I’ll make sure to keep telling people about your coffee.

This was such a great line up. Mat Best is frantic and funny as usual. But Jariko Denman was so surprisingly deadpan hilarious as well. I could watch a whole series of these two.

How about looking at an old classic, John Wayne "Sands of Iwo Jima", especially some of the bayonet training scenes. Maybe you could also look at the British SAS during the first Gulf War in "Bravo Two Zero".

14:48 “Ya got anything coming down the pipe?” “Yeah I had some Taco Bell “ 🤣🤣🤣

I'm sorry I have not watched more of your videos. A major fan now. Thank you for all of your support for veterans.

I visited a French Army surplus store once. They had beautiful rifles with a sign that said, "Never fired, only dropped once."

"This is always a good technique just hold up a piece of paper, get some guys on the bullhorn speaking the wrong language" I lost it at this one 🤣

"I always like to use small import cars as cover” GOLD

Favorite line from Three Kings: "...Are we shooting?!?"

Mat is on point with the legends. Went out MED 94 after the loss of these gents, HH-46 SAR detachment USN with Marines 24MEU. Somalia is a vacation destination...

These videos are THE BEST. The BRCC ads are already funny but the "veterans react to" videos are hilarious. :D

9:45 The oldest M9s were only in service for about 5-6 years by Desert Storm. They weren't yet the beat-to-shit complete jam-o-matics that Mat would have used over a decade later.

"That's always a good technique... get some guys on bullhorns speaking the wrong language..." BWAAAAAhahahaa

6:03 I remember as a kid seeing in the news how these two heroes were dragged and it made a big impression on me. As an adult, after seeing and reading about these two brave soldiers, I decided to name my future boys after them. My only son is 6 and he’s named after Garry Gordon. If he ever asks, he’ll know he’s named after a hero.

I think my favorite more recent Military Movie have been *ACT of VALOR* ..... . I'm former *82nd Airborne 2/505th* and even though it's an older movie and one of the greats by the way, *The Longest Day* ... I hate watching the scene where the *505th* come down right on top of the German's in Sainte Mere Eglise .. I tear up every time I see it..

I remember laughing at how long Orlando Bloom was taking to fast rope.

"They need some Marky Mark intel." 😂

Hey Matt, sorry bout those test fires. Great episode gentlemen. Good stuff.

The point is that the "that's my safe, sir" quote, had been actually said by a Delta operator. That's what is written on the Black hawk Down book by Mark Bowden.

They shoved “Hooah” in as much as possible cause they realized the marines got the market on good motto sayings

man when black hawk came out all i did was watch that movie. i watched it as a little boy until i could memorize every line and till this day i can do it. RIP Gary Gordon and Randy Shughart

Me: *thinking would be silly if the reason I joining military because of movie Mat: I join military because of this movie 😱😏

Everyone is great like normal but Jariko is hysterical! I love his deadpan reactions.

"Veterans are talking...." BWAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAAHAA!!

I'll buy Mat a beer for every time he said he despises the Beretta.

My BRCC hat just arrived in the mail. Upon placing it on my dome I was immediately able to zero my 5.56 at 1,000m...with my non dominant hand.

You guys are awesome! Randy and Gordy are two of my favorite military servicemen. I’ve read there story many times and their citation

Great as always guys! How about: “The Final Option” , Early 1980’s- About the SAS Iranian Embassy raid. The raid scene was done by real SAS guys. Keep up the good work!

Lol “they take longer to throw down their guns” Lmfaoo I lost it

As a medical student I can assure you that the "the three Kings" pneumothorax scene is realistic AF. We are also taught to do this in case of emergency with a needle and a t connector. It is put between the 2nd and 3rd rib closer to the 3rd to avoid any nerves or blood vessels.

THE OUTPOST IS AMAZING its awesome it's depicted beautifully i watched it a couple days ago its great

"You are an incredibly sensitive man who inspires joy joy feeling in all those around you" Demolition Man. An inspirational quote for ya

I don't know how KZfaq algorithm got me here but I'm glad it did. Guys, I'd seriously go out for a beer with you!

I'm not an advocate for Matt Best's pesonal politics but I love seeing Veterans of all nations and sizes shoot the shit, no matter who they are. This video is gold.

After joining the military I started to get more critical about action movies. Before military life, watching movies sounded like "wow, what a helluva explosion, and great firefights!". Now it's like "come on, what is that moron doing?! Get out of that freaking plane!" 🤣 Greetings from Brazil! 🇧🇷

I feel like this lineup is basically MST3K: Veterans Edition. Can't get enough, it's hilarious!!!

“It’s premiering at SXSW” Ouch, that didn’t age well

"It's crazy how all these Iraqis speak English" not really. Back in those days Iraq had modern infrastructure and some schools taught English. A lot of middle east people from Iraq/Syria/Iran had gone to University in Egypt specifically to take English.

I am retired Air Force, and I have a good one for you. I buy Black Rifle Coffee from my local range, and I don't drink Coffee. I do it to support you guys, and donate it to our local Food Pantry.

Yall gotta do these more often, they are the best!

The story Mike Durant tells about honoring Shuggart and Gordon at the end of In the Company of Heroes brought me to tears.

11:31 Random fact of the day: It only takes a few inches of water (or some other liquid) to knock a grown man off his feet.

I literally was playing Call of Duty when he said that we should turn it off😂

When Michael Steele was Rakkasans 6, some private tried to get him to sign his copy of Black Hawk Down, it didn't go well.

Spent my 5 years with the 160th. My Green Platoon class was one of the last to go through wearing BDUs. We quickly learned that polished boots and saying hooah was a great way to encourage the cadre to give us some fun time in the mud pit.

Cco 1/75 here....I remember when Blackhawk down came out, we took a platoon trip down to the theater. Also, Gen. Harrell said he was pretty disappointed with who they chose and how they portrayed him in the movie. RLTW

- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Secret of the Ooze. - Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend. - The Secret of Nimh. The theme is... Animals.

12:43 Is a SIG, it is a swiss Army Rifle. I think it is the IG551 Swat version, not 100% sure because i din't se the lenght right. Greetings from swiss mp gren srgt.

"Be the man you wanna be, cuz if you're not then you won't be the man you wanna be." That's legendary knowledge right there.

I love the line in a recruitment videofor our military here in Sweden the announcer going " I can't give you my cool american voice" but i can give you a good education and training" on youtube it's called Welcome to Our Reality

Did a short stint in Iraq with Colonel Steele. He did not like to talk about Mogadishu but his PSD set me up. Dude was kool as shit, though. Heard he got in trouble after we left sector.

I know we don’t have privates in the navy but as corpsman, we were taught needle thoracentesis for all enlisted. Now, how many actually used it is another story lol

My father was a Ranger , this movie seemed to set him off in a few parts of the film, he did the Darby Queen best Ranger of 1994 I think. Anyways badass channel

OMG. Your comments brought back some awesome memories with some great people. B Co. 2/75 IN. Thank you, brothers. Sua Sponte!

You should react to the early 90s television series "Thunder in Paradise" with Hulk Hogan. It was about two ex-Navy SEALS based in and around Florida/Caribbean taking on criminals/pirates and drug lords with there fully kitted out futuristic speed boat. The Boat somehow looked a lot bigger inside than it did from the outside. It would be great to see its accuracy.

Love these videos! I'd like to see some reacts to military fighting monsters/aliens like Kong skull island or Battle Los Angeles along those lines.

I just love Jariko doing the ISR impression. you need to go..... another block. Hands down the best part of the video

You guys really make my day during this lockdown! Are Matts teeth real? lol
