Wow, that's a really impactful story and perspective!

i was about to comment "hope he sees this" but then checked and realised he had died in the october of 1964 so i guess i hope his ghost sees this or something

@@parsnipguy2986 For the reasons I have mentioned above I think it is a good job the veteran didn't see it! If I had been through this experience and shared it in an interview, I would have been really offended that his narrative had been handled so flippantly and lent (no, stolen) for the use of comedy.

I am deeply sorry for your loss... he was a very hot man.

I'm deeply sorry for the fact that your grandfather was french

@@luks303 Really? these jokes still pass these days?

@@freemind9106 What? thats funny.

@@freemind9106uh oh look like the French got in the comment section

Plug this channel more please they deserve it

Monsieur le caporal ne vieillira pas.

Joel Haver, incredible.

euhh

🤣

Yeah I've seen that interview and I'm kind of saddened by this mockery. It's distasteful and disrespectful. Can't imagine thinking ww1 is a good canvas for comedy but I guess everyone gets their kicks differently.

@@BigWheel. After a hundred years, everything becomes okay to joke about.

@hotelmario510 you can say that but it doesn't make it any less tasteless. I sure as heck judge it as such given the source material and background.

​@@BigWheel.I agree ,i thought that i couldn't get the joke at first, but i understood that its just ridiculous

@@hotelmario510 By that yardstick in another 22 years if we're all still here we can start openly mocking the holocaust even as some low lives do already.

I'm starting to think that actually might be another guy!

@@LikeAFoxStudios I just think it’s ironic that it’s during the part of the video where the guy is actually starting to believe that it’s really his reflection.

These are the comments that keep us going.

@@LikeAFoxStudios you can't upvote? are your thumbs broken? oh wait, that's a video idea. and i began typing it as a dumb thing, but it's actually a good idea. It's all yours, baby

@@LikeAFoxStudios yeah, heh, going to the bathroom. much love

Wat

Nobody kills harpo!

I am sorry Diane

@@LikeAFoxStudios Why would you even want to do this? These experiences traumatized a whole generation of men for the rest of their lives. Many were not able to talk about the war until their much later years if at all, and were driven to alcoholism and were unable to have proper relationships with their own offspring because they could not be reached. My grandfather was one of them and my mother never really knew him as a father, nor I as a grandfather, but he came from the war with a hole in his back which you could put your fist in, hating Germans and ALL things military. This poor chap being interviewed could be the German version of my own grandfather.

@@dianehewston9700 I'm sorry about your grandfather. Look I'm not gonna sit here and try to justify why I thought this concept was funny and absurd. If you don't like it or think its distasteful, nothing I say can really change your mind. I do want to say thought that I don't think the joke of this sketch is coming from any place of disrespect or mockery. War is brutal, and for that reason it's perhaps the most unexpected place to find a marx brothers type physical comedy routine. That to me is the joke, and while yo u may disagree, I think people should be capable of making jokes about tragic and morbid topics like war and death. The absurdity of comedy highlights the absurdity of war, this awful thing that we all live in the shadow of and try to make sense of.

@@LikeAFoxStudios I get what you are saying about comedy and war in general. That is not my beef. There is NO possibility of making sense of war because it goes beyond sense. That it continues to happen and the terrible things that happen in it and in the souls of men is something that even those who go through these terrible nightmare scenarios cannot fathom ever after. My problem with this piece you have put together is that it has seized upon the personal experience, a very harrowing episode of this man which forever lived in his conscience, something which he admitted he felt shame, sorrow, horror and guilt and virtually ad verbatim 'comically' retold his testimony in a way which has subjected it to ridicule and humour. Where will the train not go next, Bergen Belsen, Dachau? At what point do we reach a subject that is considered tasteless??

It’s personal sure but this sketch isn’t about that soldier or his interview. If you think the point of the piece is to mock his experience then I disagree.

Jeff that video also says WW1.

@@LikeAFoxStudios I stand corrected. Senior citizen moment, that’s what I’m going with. Still, I prefer this over the other.

does it look deep faked? It’s literally just me in makeup.

@LikeAFoxStudios Oh I didn't know it was you. I've seen the original video and knew this wasn't it so I assumed it was deep faked

There’s no ai used in my videos (and there never will be) the character you’re seeing is played by me using my voice and wearing makeup that I did myself. No history was altered I think this is a very obvious parody that no one would ever think is real

There’s no filter it’s makeup!

@@LikeAFoxStudios no it’s a filter. You can find the real video online. Idiot.
