Hey quick thing. if/when you watch more Fat Electrician try to watch till the end or look at the time remaining cause there are occasionally little funny remarks he makes or little clips that are interesting/funny that you will miss out if you think its like a normal end credits. In this one, there's a clip of an interview with 'Jake McNasty' himself that you missed in the reaction. Not sure you saw it, but just FYI.

For the FatElectrician watch list; Cassius Clay, the most gangster US politician. Sergeant Reckless, war horse. The most unlucky ship. The USS William D. Porter

Dude grew up during the depression and probably didn't have shoes at certain points or just went barefoot and had tough feet making boots and socks a luxury

The 2 movies that came from him are The Dirty Dozen and The Bridge at Remagen...both are awesome movies!

The one about Cassius Clay is likely to teach you some American history you didn't know or the USS Barb a submarine that sank a train.

Nah, he aint the Leroy Jenkins of ww2...he's what Leroy Jenkins IMAGINED he was.

When it comes to that ruck march, it was said that jake mcnasty did every thing, that mean fishing and hunting, completely barefoot, the build up of foot callous from.when he was a kid onward pretty much protected his feet from blisters and quite possible other foot problems that the other soldiers suffered from even possible trench foot.

2 Fat Electrician videos and you have made the same fatal mistake. You have to watch the complete video. He has extra footage at the end of his videos.

Y'all need to do Dan Daly, the most gangster Marine of all time.

Just a quick note here. The movie "The Dirty Dozen" is based on Jake McNeese and his boys exploits during WW2. Everything that Nick talks about here is true. Jake McNeese was one hard assed SOB and would not follow rules at any point.

He probably ran around bare footed while running around the woods to put food on the table.

I didn't know, while Stationed in Germany, I toured the Battle of Bastion. I was in tears at the Memorial and Museum that the Belgiums had put up, Honoring the Americans. A group of Middle School students, Belgium, saw myself and my friends touring the Museum and they asked if we were American Servicemen, we said Yes, Air Force, they proceeded to thank us and give us Hugs all around! To this Day, I remember and Respect the Men who came before who emoted such Love and Honor from another Country.

In 2005 I retired from the 2-506th PIR at FOB Falcon, Iraq. I specifically requested that unit so I could retire from it before it was deactivated again. It was both McNiece's battalion and Easy Company from Band of Brothers. This version comes from McNiece's book and is a bit exaggerated, but Fat Electrician also downplays the actual march he talks about. More than 75 completed it. The 2nd Battalion was badass and marched from Camp Toccoa to Ft. Benning. The 1st Battalion said no way an took a train from Camp Toccoa to Ft. Benning. The 3rd Battalion took a train to Atlanta, then marched the last 18 miles to Ft. Benning. The entire 2nd battalion completed the march. Only 75 completed it without assistance, including Easy Company's entire 3rd Platoon. The march was only 118 miles. For some reason, McNiece counts the last 18 twice. Here's where its downplayed - the battalion marched 118 miles in less than 75 hours. Only the last 18 were on paved roads as they marched through Atlanta. At night, the temperature was below freezing. The first morning, their equipment was frozen to the ground. There was freezing rain and 25mph winds for most of the march. The CO that wanted to beat the record was the same Col. Sink that is shown in Band of Brothers. There is a scene in the series where they show the Fithy Five as they painted their faces before they boarded the planes for D-Day.

Sgt Reckless is an absolute must watch but get the tissues ready when you do

You missed the end where they showed him interview

You should do America Dismantles the Pirate Nations. It tells how the Navy and Marines got started.

I did a 27 to 30 mile ruck march in Germany. I had the M-60 and two belts of blanks. I pissed off the CO so I was given the 40 lb radio on top of my 80 lb ruck... All the gunners kept passing ammo belts to me during the march. I had at least eight belts. We had mop annual training qualifications at the same time. We had two ambushes to fight through. Not all of us made it back to the barracks . We had mass casualties. The small team that complained the march were hospitalized. Our feet were torn and bloody.

My Favorite from the Fat Electrician are The Berlin Airlift, Dan Daily: The Most Gangster Marine, America’s Warhorse Marine and America Steals a German submarine. Truly a reaction to any of his content would be great as there is something to learn from all of it.

Navy SEABEE, 6 miles. SEABEES are trained by Marines for combat, every year we spent 10 days to 2 weeks at a Marine base. Each Battalion has Marine attached to them.

You stopped too soon. Right at the end of the video Jake himself explained the incident where he beat down the MPs.

You missed Jake speaking at the end it got stopped too early,Dan Daly video is perfect

Hard to punish a guy whose job has a 50% casualty rate- and that's just the jump.

To be honest, I'm not sure you want him on your team. HOWEVER you want him against your enemy!

The oxford line... "They call me mcNASTY... But you ladies can call me my name- mcNICE!"

Awesome reaction! All of Nics videos are amazing, note y'all missed a clip of Jake talking at the end of this video. Some of his videos he has clips or goofs at the end.

Found yall thought the Fat Electrician...New Subscriber. Dont skip the endings, sometimes there is interviews from the legends themselves. (Like in this case)

Having a solid command structure and consistent training is great for a standing army. Everyone on the same page, everything working together. The bad part is that in war time or crisis situations the enemy likely knows all of that and has prepared for it. Then it becomes time for the outlier. You need people who nod at the rules and make the right things happen in their own way so as to keep ahead of the enemy. Being unpredictable to your enemy is life in war, and if that means bending a few rules, so be it. That is the one thing the USA had that set them apart from the Japanese and Germans. The Aussies were much the same, and that was what made them the most effective in their fights. Kindred spirits.

The Dirty Dozen is a great film. I used to watch it with my grandpa, he was a WW2 vet who lost an eye in Pearl Harbor.

Nick reminds me of Sam Kinnison as a teacher in Rodney Dangerfield's movie "Back to School" 😂

Keep em coming, one of the best stories is the eager beavers. You have to do that 1 soon! ❤

ok 1 st thing to remember he grew up during the depression in a large family chances are good he rarely had shoes let alone wore them his feet were solid calluses and tough like leather. he didn't need boots.

You missed the end 😮 Jake spoke in an interview...plz watch all the way thru.

You should definitely check out his Dan Daily the most gangster marine story and Cassius Clay the most gangster politian in US history

Jake is the kind of guy that if I was president in a war, I would give a whole army to. Like Lincoln did with Grant. Can't spare a man like this in war, he fights.

I’ve watched all of Nick’s videos. I don’t think I’ve laughed so hard or learned so much.

The most gangster marine of all time Dan Daly great video from fat electrician.

As a Brit, you can leave your salt at home because I'm plenty salty enough about that food comment for everyone.

1:45 in and they havent realized the great military movie the Dirty Dozen is named after the Filthy 13, my grandpa loved to tell us kids during war movies if they had real people in them cause he liked war history as a Nam vet

He is the best story teller I’ve ever heard

You get a twofer on the movie. Inglorious bastards was a remake of the dirty dozen.

Loved it again guys!! My favorite Fat Electrician video is the one about America’s war horse, Sergeant reckless.

New sub to your channel, haha. And I found you guys from the first vid. FE just has a way of keeping learning fun😂😂😂😂

12:22 super human feet, lol. No one seems to catch that little pun he threw in there so I thought I would point it out for those that missed it. Great video, love the reaction and insight from a fellow soldier. This is by far my favorite story from the fat electrician.

Pathfinders were the team in WW2 that would parachute into enemy territory as basically a spotter. This was extremely dangerous!

Great and fantastic video. Thank you. Please share more of TFE. ❤

The unluckest ship, the don't mess with our boats and the eggnogg riot are my favs.

I have been loving your videos so thank you guys. Secondly I can’t help but laugh because if you took the guy on the rights face and put it on the guy on the left they would look like Ricky Berwick. Hopefully this gives you guys a chuckle and thank you for the content definitely subscribing

One of the nice things about driving a train is that it rarely matters whether you are very good at steering.

Jake was a farm boy, like me. We didn't have shoes till school age, school age we got hand-me -down shoes.

Thanks for this! This is great, hanging out with cool dudes learning about super-dudes! 😎👍🏼

All the suggestions made are very educational amd entertaining must watch. He would be a good history teacher in school the students would not fall asleep.

"And show her that inches are, in fact, better than centimeters." This is the absolute best line in this whole story. After watching this countless times, that shit still kills me every single time I hear it.

My late grandfather was a member of the U.S. 101st Airborne Division during WW2.

He was basically our WW2 master chief

Great react, and howling in laughter is gonna happen somewhere in there for sure. 😀 Always watch to the very end so you can catch an extra scene as he has those in many videos. This one had footage of Jake himself talking about taking the guns away from the MPs. My Top Three You Haven't Seen Yet: All going to be impossible stories that really happened. 1: The Last War Chief - Joe Medicine Crow 2: The Eager Beavers and Ol 666 3: The Barbary Wars - America Dismantles Pirate Nations For Touching Their Boats and, as an amusing shorter vid, the honorable mention Unrolling History: Military Grade Toilet Paper

Why did you stop the video? Always watch to the end. C'mon guys.😂

You missed Jake talking at the end so sometimes there's outtakes or the actual people talking in interviews or stuff like that so always wait until the end 😂

Back in the day, the US had the best boots and wool socks, they didn't need Goretex because wool keeps your feet warm wet or cold. They also didn't carry as much gear, about 40-50 lbs worth, relying on supply lines or foraging.

I know someone who fished with dynamite. He called it "telephoning," the guy was nuts. I mean off his rocker crazy AF.

The interview of Jake McNiece is worth watching.

I wonder if this guy ever bumped into Paddy Mayne - now that would have been a terrifying twosome!!

Gotta watch the one about the Finnish soldier that tripped out on meth and trolled the Soviets.

I was 101st airborne 326 eng bat Sapper Eagles. I was 12b combat engineers. We heard about Jake and his exploits as part of our history

What a man. That was incredible.

Well, the phrase "Hit the Play Button!!!!1!!" sprung to my mind 40-50 times watching this video.

You got to watch the one about ice cream. I just binged watched ALL of his videos and he is such a great storyteller.

"Where's the wheel barrel for...Jake Mcnastys Balls?" Is probably the greatest quote on the entire internet! ( I'll check...🤔This might take a while ...😒)

Just remember, as always "it's only a war crime the first time."

-Check out his video on Sergeant Reckless, the most decorated and highest ranking animal ever in the Marines. You will learn more about the Korean conflict than we were ever taught in school. After that, check out World War Tree (Operation Paul Bunyan). This op was also done in Korea after the conflict ended taking place in the DMZ.

My personal favorite Fat Electrician video is on John Daley, the 2 time medal of honor winner who nearly won a 3rd medal of honor. He was a career marine at the turn of the 20th century. Though considering I see you guys watched the Sgt. Reckless video, Fat Electrican also has one on Sea Bees in Korea stealing a train, and that might be better to do to reinforce what you learned about the Korean War. Also the one titled World War Tree about the "civil" dispute over territory after the Korean War. My other personal favorite of the moment is on Old 666, a WWII bomber team of guys who really wanted to be flying fighters but who were too big because fighter pilots are more averaged sized and these guys were over 6 foot. So they decided to fly a bomber like it was a fighter. He also has a nice two part piece on the Berlin Wall. One about the US having to supply Berlin post war and the follow up on the fall of the wall.

The Dirty Dozen with Clint Eastwood is about Jake. I watched it every time it comes on and I would watch Patton too

Halo's master chief see's McNastt coming down HE'S the dude who yells "IT'S A DEMON!!!!" and runs around like a covenent GRUNT!

When I went through basic we did a 7, a 15 and, a 26 mile march in full field gear and a ten pound weight plate.

There's many but I think the berlin airlift one would be a good watch. Alternate between ones about people and ones about events.

y'all turned the video off too early... go back and watch the end.

My personal recommendations after this video for the Fat Electrician would be the following: - The Eager Beavers and their unique B-17 “Old 666” - The Limping Lady, first WW2 Spy - Sgt Reckless - America’s War Horse Marine

My grandfather stole a Firetruck in Japan during WWII. . When asked why he stole it he said "I'm the only one that knew how to drive the steam engine" lol

I don’t know how long we marched when I was in HHC 2X but we were being lead by a butter-bar (2nd Lieutenant) who promptly got us lost. Our CO was not happy. This was back in 1978 or 79. I really don’t remember because I spent a lot of that time drunk.

England: _the land which taught the world how to boil a steak._

My father was in WWII,Korea and Vietnam. Let me just say growing up I knew quite a few McNasty’s.

when I was in army boot, our final ruck march was 25 miles. went through 8 pairs of socks

The whole thing with British food not having spices was basically that at the height of the British empire spices got so cheap to the point that Joe factory worker could afford them so it actually became classy to eat food without spices

The fat electrician......The history teacher I always wanted. Making history fun AND humorous , that's the way to go.

The longest march I did was 20 miles in a driving rain at Parris island during jan.

I had a friend that was in Special Forces that had different nicknames for the 82nd and 101st airborne. He called them the Almost Airborne and the Squawking Chickens.

Unscribe podcast has him Brandon Eli and other military or cops that are vets its soooo awesome,like drink champs for vets

Of course it was the perfect ending for NcNiece. Dude spent his whole life going postal and finally found the official government organization that approved of that. 😮

So cool! I have liked pirates since I was a little girl. I fell in love with Capt. Jack Sparrow.....and now I love the crew of the Home Free.😊 The song is great, and the video is too. Another winner!❤

Good, glad you found McNasty. And you should watch the movie “Snatch”; Brad Pitt has a legendary in that one, too

There's more of the video. Don't stop too soon. The Fat Electrician usually has out takes.

"Were's this movie?" It was a 1967 film called "The Dirty Dozen".

Surprisingly, the one thing that stood out to me is that IF the government wanted these guys to become PFC’s so bad so they could send more money home to their families, then why not just pay them as a PFC from the beginning?

You guy's skipped the very end with Jake himself talking in an interview.

Jim Brown ( NFL hall of fame ) is in that movie. You know being from Murderland we would just take Old Bay to England since it’s a food group. You should do the pirate one and the last was chief from the fat electrician.

Considering I was born in this guy's home town I can say I wasn't surprised in the least when he said Jake was from Ponca City. Absolutely the cloth he was cut from 😂

REDNECK FISHING is fishing w/dynamite ! The underwater concussion explosion, shocks the fish & they all float to the top.

The best part of the video at the end. Jake McNasty him self tell the storie of the MPs.

Jake probably grew up walking without shoes, which perhaps explains the result on the ruck march.

What's crazy is in my life I have seen that footage of guys with Mohawks dozens of time and it turns out to be of a legit 💯 badass

Gotta do the Barbary pirates. Very funny!!
