bradley cooper did amazing in the movie but Chris Pratt looks so much like him that i think he could’ve crushed that role as well.

Me camping on customs for 20 minutes just to finish my damn bolt action quests

From the very limited people that I've talked to who knew Chris personally said he was the most down to earth dude they've ever met

Carlos Hathcock took out an entire enemy platoon in the dark.

The dude pissed himself while on overwatch until his relief came to swap out. Dude was committed to his profession with every fiber of his being.

I used to go over to Chris' house and play with his son when I was younger... it makes me bitter sweet to hear about him. Miss and love you Chris. God bless you

Chris was a guardian angel and knew he needed to focus

I saw someone say American Sniper is just the movie that they show in Inglorious Bastards cinema scene and it’s so accurate lol

Well I wanted to go to sleep early tonight but I guess Im rewatching american sniper for the 5th time

Lowkey, i feel like him and Goggins wouldve been out doing crazy shit together

RIP Chris Kyle and bless your family. You made a difference, thank you.

I’ve stared at a target for over an hour a few times. On average I stare about 15-30 mins on a daily basis, but I can probably do 2 hours if my life depended on it. The only difference is I’m not sniping, I’m dropping bombs sitting on the toilet.

Being a snipper is the art of being still and quiet in mind and body especially when sending that round down range many people can't be still

You know that man always got your back.

Thank you sir and thanks to all those who are still serving and served

The Royal Marines have produced some outstanding snipers over the years . Craig Harrison had the longest confirmed kill at 2,707 yds. And another anonymous RM sniper clocked up 173 confirmed kills between 2007-9 in Afghanistan.

The Canadian JTF2 guys who did a world breaking shots were observing enemies from miles away through powerful scopes all day everyday for weeks. They would do rotations daily but would basically be staring through a scope for half a day I'm guessing before switching as the team was small from what can be seen in the photo of 5-6 guys looking through scopes.

I DIDNT KNOW CHAD BUT CHRIS WAS MY FRIEND ! SPOKE TO HIM THE SUNDAY NIGHT BEFORE THE SHIT HAPPENED .ME AND MY WIFE WERE SUPPOSED TO GO SEE HIM THAT SAME DAY !WAS HEARTBROKEN WHEN WE FOUND OUT !WILL NEVER FORGET YOU MY BROTHER!!!!

RIP Chris

"Stay perfectly still with your eyes glued to a screen" Shit i do that every sunday after a saturday sesh with the boys for 6 hours. Looks like im going to the navys

Also had to have almost supernatural eye sight.

Bob Lee swagger - “hold my beer”

Laughs in Finnish

He took it to a whole new level alright, one that's not of this earth. He made it easy for Hollywood to make a movie because they didn't have to embellish anything it was already done for them.

Im out now but i was active duty Marine Corps, and we were doing beach operations down in Coronado. I had the honor to meet this legend and chat with him for a little while.

In SF we used to rotate every 20 min.

they say you live by the gun you die by the gun

Extrordinary

Bro brought a tent

Carlos hathcock greatest sniper ever. he went and hunted his kills while Chris just set up and waited

Thanks Clint, for showing us that amazing story.

All of those in my graduating class army infantry sniper training had to do it for 1 hour or didn't get their boars tooth.

When Chris killed 165 he’s a hero, when I do it I’m a serial killer, double standards smh

I’ve watched a 10 gig game download off of a 700 kb all the way through I got this

Chris also had the utmost respect for the "white feather".

Take it to another level

My grandfather was a sniper in ww2 . He grew up hunting which i am sure helped with his skills. He used to tell me some wild stories. He also told me he really enjoyed shooting nazis lol. Different breed for sure lol

“To be a sniper you got to be able to do sniper shit”

Everyone has that one guy

I miss Chris, it was great to get a call and catch up or hang out down in Texas, or watch new people that got to meet him get chocked out. It wasn’t a hateful thing it was just something that he did. Guys that weren’t in the military wore it like a badge of honor. I remember o e time we were all hanging out day one so we are catching up, but out of nowhere this group of non military guys comes up lead by one that had been chocked out before. The guy says all these guys want to be chocked out by you. The military group bursts into laughter. The guy who has been chocked before says well we told them it is a right of passage. Of course we are all on board with it and Chris gives his smirk as he stands, “whose first?” I miss him, he and I would check in on each other from time to time. He talked me into doing more for veterans than I already was. The man was a solid man, he never treated other military guys like crap, treated you like family, good guy and will forever be missed.

Carlos Hathcock tops Chris imo

WOW, 2 HOURS. Incredible

Thank you for your service Chris Kyle. Rest in peace . in God We Trust.

So he's got the patience of the average deer hunter.

All friendly fire in a true american fasion

Did he not lie about hitting jesse ventura and make ppl turn on jesse...so is he really that good of a fella

Legendary

Sounds like his passion was just stronger than others🤷🏾‍♂️💯

Bro if I’m at war I’m on the scope for a mf whole 8 hr watch shift 😂😂

RIP Chris Kyle 👍😎❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Joe Rogan you bring the very BEST QUEST 100%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The best snipers in the world went on black ops missions in Asia and South America and they don't write lies nor make a movie about their exploits. Classified was the word.

As a kid I used to lay in the bushes with my nerf gun and watch people walk by for hours

Still changes his story every time babyyyyy

Mad respect for a fallen soldier. 👏

I thank God for men that put their life on the line like that for us. May God bless them.

I had my eye glued to the scope for hours in a fire fight in Afghanistan and i was just a regular army sniper.

When he says the word “kills” he says it like it’s just numbers.. these were fathers to someone.. you people will be disappointed in judgement day.

There’s a reason why the movie deer hunter was about war. All the best snipers were hunters first. In fact all the best soldiers were most likely hunters too.

Rip❤Gone but never forgotten We need to live a life that would honor their sacrifice ❤️

Simo Häyhä: "Am I a joke to you? Perkele."

I can stare at my phone for HOURRSSS

All y’all saying dude a liar and here this guy is his actual teammate saying he was next level and y’all still believe online bs

What you do is get people with ADHD and train them to enjoy laying there watching for stuff and they'll be there for hours. Can't get them to focus on shit but what they enjoy so once you get past that hurdle youll be solid

Same thing with night vision it hurts my eyes after about 30 minutes and you just want them off. It’s like staring at a TV screen point blank to your eye.

I just hope you show the same exitement when we talk about Juba...

This man was born to be a soldier, a reporter asked him of he regretted any kills and before even thinking he said "absolutely not, it was my men or there's and I chose there's"

Love when pages use the wrong pictures 🤡🤡 how are you going to show a British sniper team when he's a SEAL?

BADASS MUSIC YEAHHH

A legend thx u all for your service

Why is it so difficult to include episode numbers?

I didn't blink for 4 hours in a museum for an acting job. After about 30 minutes you don't even hear people anymore. And people clapping in your face just makes them look like a jackasz

Aim small, miss small 👑

Brilliant level to set for the selection process

Which episode?

My grandfather was a sniper in Vietnam he died of cancer when he returned from agent orange. But he used iron sights and I am a pretty unbelievable shot for not shooting everyday growing up. Crazy thing I think I inherited is I can keep my eyes open for 30-45 min without blinking once

The fact his power move is I was with him during those kills makes him a Look like a pog.

Literally every teenager can do that with their phone everyday

There is something disturbing about the story of Chris Kyle. Either he really was such deeply committed to protecting his comrades or, like any functional psychopath, he just enjoying looking through the scope, enjoying to have power to pull the trigger and kill someone, knowing that any person on his crosshair isn't aware of his presence and knowledge that target will be dead when he decide that he has a good conditions to send its bullet right to the target. I don't speak of killing armed insurgents nor their known accomplices, but civilians he assessed as "enemy combatants" without any reason. That feeling of almost divine power - he decides when to kill someone is a powerful trip, and when the goals disappear, personal demons appear, in the form of PTSD, "withdrawing from addiction of killing" because he got addicted to war and killing as an any human addicted on drugs, booze, gamble, etc..That's why the demons kept coming back. By working with other soldiers with severe forms of PTSD, and for which he had neither possessed the knowledge nor the training, he may have been trying to "feed" the demons through war stories and memories.. If the story of killing people affected by a natural disaster in New Orleans is true, where claiming that as a civilian he was "helping" the citizens of New Orleans by killing as a civilian what he believed to be looters - then he committed multiple murders for which he should have been prosecuted. BTW, there were other, much more important ways to help the community. I remember a story where an ex-Navy SEAL swam and pushed a boat with old and infirm people he found, searched for and brought necessary medication from their homes, and I literally lifted them all to safety on the flat roof of a sturdy building so that the helicopter crews could see them more easily , and then went back to look for other people who needed help. For me, he is a greater hero, because any fool can take someone else's life, but only well-bred people with good hearts, those who know the difference between good and evil, can save other people's lives.

Different breed 😤

He is describing my friend who camps all the time.

Miss you brother

Imagine taking on the taliban just to get killed by someone in your own town😭😭

Bro has more confirmed kills that Jeffery dahmer, John Wayne gacy, and Ted bundy combined times 2…

MY NUMBERS ARE IN THE BILLIONS!

Take's Unbelievable Discipline .

He was a real series killer

Chris said he was more lucky than good. Often his teammate would be on the glass and never get a target and as soon as Chris would takeover a target would appear

I love how a confirmed liar is an American hero

He's basically the Michael Jordan of Snipers.

Carlos Hathcock was my favorite sniper to read about as a kid

R.I.P.

That’s a country boy for you. We get put on glassing at a young age. That’s why the majority of country kids get picked outta boot camp to be a sniper or a scout. We been doing it our whole lives🔥

Chris Kyle was a war criminal, he shot at anything that moved. Karma came back for him.

💪🏾💯🇺🇸GOAT🇺🇸💯💪🏾

Does that get him number one on the serial killer list? Karma seemed to backfire for him

Along with his sniper skills he was also really good at being a narcissistic liar.

All hell Chris my favorite is being a sniper

Well I don’t think any of us can say anything until you’ve been to war

Unfortunately Chris was a liar he destroyed Jessy Ventura's life and Dishonored Jessy and more importantly himself. He was already a hero and a bad ass and then he flushed his reputation down the toilet
