@@vinokai Even though the adrenaline was the only thing keeping him conscious, the decision to keep fighting was all his. It's not likely he could have known in the low light conditions of early morning the extent of his wounds, so even knowing he was wounded I doubt that the thought "I'm going to die anyway" was in his head. That means Chapman was fighting 100% out of the goodness of his heart and the duty and respect of a soldier. I wholeheartedly agree that he deserves eternal respect.
At this point which is more important acknowledging a legend or saying something is copied because , you know, out of 7.4 billion people it's not impossible for two people to write something similar to each other....

CanadianBluePants no it doesn’t. You are interpreting something that isn’t there. He is simply saying celebrate their life for what they were instead of mourning that they are gone. It is just a different way of looking at the world. Both are ways one can honor a person...it’s just a matter of perspective.

I literally will never be able to understand how people like this exist. This, is absolutely unfathomable. And this isn’t any disrespect whatsoever. I genuinely didn’t believe superhero’s existed.

Remember this is 5 months after September 11th. When the second plane hit Air Combat controllers literally walked into the locker room to assemble their gear. THEY not Marines are the first in. Their motto is literally First There. He wanted the enemy to understand that Americans are willing to fight. THEN when he saw the copter coming in his rationale was he was going to die anyway he didn't want to go to his grave knowing he let those men die. Sun Tzu talks about being on deaths ground. When a man realizes he has nothing to lose he fights the hardest.
Kerim E. This happened directly because of 9/11, it had nothing to do with ‘economics’. But it’s alright mate, you just sit in your arm chair and judge and pretend that you people aren’t the ones that make this world worse off.
David Amaya these soldiers have families yet lay their lives on the line man. I’m sure your country has a military too or government that’s done wrong, but who’s hasn’t? You can’t control that.. Instead, pay some respect to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to keep their people safe. It’s the least you can do while sitting on your ass.
Neil Robert’s was also a badass. He was killed before the team arrived, but it was later discovered that he fought until his M60 machine gun jammed from snow and dried blood. All of these men are the definition of heroism.
I didn’t know about him and I’ve watched this video so many times and watched so many react to it. I think this is my second time watching this specific video. Is there any documentaries about him or anything? Lately I’ve been really interested in videos like this. I wanted to join the military but I’m severe chronically Ill and can’t. So I want to learn all I can.
@x GeneraI, no. We fight fire with fire and that is what brings you peace. Imagine if the US was weak. We'd be neck deep in terrorist rn. P.s. we'd be in some real trouble if we had dragons, so idk if you'd want that in your town. Have you ever played Skyrim? Imagine if you WEREN'T the dragonborn...
“I will ALWAYS place the mission first, I will NEVER accept defeat, I will NEVER quit, I will NEVER leave a fallen comrade." He was the definition of a WARRIOR. Gave them hell til his last breath. Hooah!
"Out of every one hundred men, 10 shouldn't even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them because they make the battle. Ah, but the one, one is a warrior - and he will bring the others back." -Heraclitus This man is the epitome of a true warrior.
This is dumb quote and out of date. It downs plays the teamwork and skill of operators in the field. The only that separates Chapman from his teammates is the circumstance. Anyone of them would have done the same.
@@thatguydonut6566 ... They , being his teammates and other special forces of other branches, wouldn't do the same in his situation?! They risk their all their lives to go save one downed person. I guess I fail to explain why this quote doesn't apply to special forces... GG
@@Kay0Bot I said that the majority wont. I'm talking about the people. Theres still about 10 to 20% of people that will that are in the military it's just that Chapman was one of those percent.
@@Kay0Bot only 15-20% of US soldiers fired their weapons in combat in world war 2, according to an Army study. Less with the actual intention to kill. I don't think it's so much downplaying the teamwork of war, obviously anyone on a SEAL team is a badass. But me or you in that position? I have no shame on admitting id literally shit my pants.
Sad to know that his team left him after such a heroic act thinking he had been killed. Imagine recovering and knowing youre on your own with multiple gunshot wounds and having the heart to get up grab your weapon and keep fighting for your comrades. Heroic man.
Carkua pretty sure that SEAL team leader claimed he had checked Chapman’s pulse before they left, if that’s true the SEAL who got that MOH is a piece of shit and doesn’t deserve it
@@HeyImTiP I would say its a lie to cover his own back for abandoning his man. They set up the whole operation to save another man and abandon this hero. a piece of shit is right
As the saying goes, no man gets left behind. Chapman would have known this. What people don’t realize is that when he woke up after having been shot the first time, he probably didn’t think he had been abandoned but rather that everyone else had been killed. He was willing to die for his brothers because he thought they had done the same for him. Unfortunately for Chapman he fought to the death for brothers who abandoned him and tried to cover up his heroic actions. The ultimate discredit to a great man. Thank god the truth came out and the real hero was recognized.
@@Kaadeeem absolutely true brother. At that point he was fighting to make sure his brothers went home and that is why he stands guard at the gates of heaven now. Absolute beast of a man.
There’s countless stories of soldiers going above and beyond for their country and their brothers in arms. There was a gurka that literally had his entire hand blown off by a Japanese grenade and held off an entire assault by himself and his bolt action rifle with the only thing close to his position was the kukri he used to mark where the enemy shall not pass saying the phrase “come face a gurka”
I've seen a reaction with a veteran and his kid. He cried when he saw this it devastated me. What gets me is the fact that this isn't the first person to sacrifice themselves like this...it breaks my ❤
First let me say from a US Marine to a Royal Marine Semper Fi brother much respect for your service. I was an 8654/0326 (Reconnaissance Man Parachute and Combatant Diver Qualified) for 22 of the 24 years i honorably served. I also had the honor of operating with some of Her Majesties Royal Marines they were some of the finest men i ever operated with. Now as for the video i also found it difficult to watch because i had the privilege of knowing the man personally. When i first heard about what had happened i was shocked, but the shock wore off quickly. Why he did what he did is just who he was as a man he had a love for his fellow brothers that ran very deep. As a man of honor that he was he layed down his life to save the lives of others even though he didn't know many of them. He was a great man down to earth and easy to get along with. It's my honor to have known him on a personal level.
I also am a US Marine, 0341 (Mortarman) Bravo Company/3rd Battalion "The Balls of the Corps"/1st Marines . And like you, I had the honor and good fortune to serve along side 3rd Battalion, Royal Regiment of Scotland "THE BLACK WATCH" in Fallujah. I never had the honor to meet MSgyt Chapman he was defiantly SQUARED AWAY!!! Mission and Team 1st, self 2nd!!! May God bless him and take him into his his almighty embrace and everlasting Paradise.
Thank u for your service sir. All of us Americans, me included will never forget. Also, as an immigrant who is now an American citizen, my family is grateful . My father was a child during WWII in the Philippines and American soldiers saved him from Japanese soldiers. He actually saw a Japanese soldier commit a kamikaze (bombed himself) because he didn’t want to be captured by American soldiers. So, if my father died that day, my siblings and I would’ve never exists. He’s the only boy in his family and his sisters never had kids. I’m only 42 but I’ve always loved my Dad’s WWII stories and all the veterans I’ve talked to since then, because without their sacrifices more people would’ve lost their lives. That’s why I will always remember.
One of the saddest things is that his team left him behind thinking he was dead. If you know how these guys think, you have to imagine that they were beyond devastated to learn that he was actually alive and that he died the way he did. This man is the definition of a true warrior. Legend.
The opposite... SEALs and the Navy fought the fact and fought the Medal of Honor to preserve their image. Read in to it more, it was pretty disgraceful, to be honest.
@@gnomish844 I'm not talking about the institution or the higher ups in command. I'm talking about the guys that were on the ground WITH him. Those guys had to have been devastated once they heard the news.
@@SpencerKelly93 -- The unit leader testified that he checked on Chapman and confirmed he was dead before making the decision to retreat. That clearly never happened. I'm also talking about the boots on the ground. They doubled-down and went in to image protection mode.
They tried to cover it up, and did a good job because most people don't realize it. Also 4 years later and only see the fun stories on this channel not a deeper break down that I've been waiting for about the book
I was gonna comment and say “it really does” but then I saw someone else said it word for word. I agree with you both- once you hear this story it’s hard to get it out of your mind.
"Lord make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true and my hand he faster than those who would seek to destroy me. Grant me victory over my foes and those who would wish to do harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be 'if only I had my gun'. And Lord if today is truly the day you call me home, let me die in a pile of empty brass" 🙏
Amen, massive respect for Chapman. I’m not willing to give a crumb of bread to my brother and here’s Chapman giving his life for people he doesn’t even know.
David Amaya seems a bit wrong to say that tbh. He believed in what he was doing and wanted to protect his team who he would see as his brothers. No matter what you think of the SEALs, this man is a hero
When chapman went down the first time, god brought him to heaven. Chapman said, No I'm not done. My men aren't safe. Let me go and save them. When they are safe i will comeback at peace
On some level I actually believe this. He was said to have been mortally wounded to the point the SEALS thought he was already dead. He was bleeding badly and woke up hours later, didn't speak and just went full out killing Al Qaeda's most experienced fighters? This man was like some kind or revenant.
@@Adino1 I would assume it was a kind of "I'm doomed." feeling, where he knew trying to save his own life would risk the lives of others, so if he's going to go down, he's going to take every single fighter down with him
@@Adino1 In the book the Team leader actually checked Chapman's pulse and he said he didnt feel it. Thats why they left him. Its a gut wrenching story.
You know that you just said something very powerful and important! That is certainly approximately what took place. Most definitely and thank you for enlightening others who may have never experienced you know know a death and come back experience of such and that quick conversation with the highest most powerful entity to exist. Thank u my hair still stands up back of my neck
@@drayton904unfortunately as the video shows Slab never returned to johns position. I'm his own aar he stated that he determined death because the laser stopped rising and falling. The place he marked as checking chapman was where Roberts's body was found. As shown in the video the seals crawled over Roberts body as they exfilled. Chalk it up to dog if war.... Slab would have stayed if he had known Chapman was alive they all might have perished but he never would have left that peak if he thought Chapman was still alive
This is the ultimate expression of love. Hatred, anger, and ignorance can propel a person to do things seemingly impossible... but there are limits. A deep and abiding love for one's teammates transcends those boundaries. Hate and anger cools and falls away. Love fills your heart and will sustain you beyond the point of certain death or when lesser men will falter. To endure such pain and misery, to pick yourself up and go forward, to lay down your life so that others may live, those are the hallmarks of heroes. May God bless and keep all those who give their last breath in service to others.
The video is unclear about that- he got one, the Air Force version, posthumously. No one has gotten two in over a hundred years - and many of those who did in the First World War are cases of a soldier or marine given both the Army AND Navy versions for the same incident when the forces were fighting together. I think the “two” mentioned in the video, and the joint nature of the battle, means that theoretically another branch could nominate him, but two for the same battle is frowned upon nowadays (there was actually regulations against it until recently).
@@mjpraetorian4386 honestly in 2020 they would try to change the story to some social justice cause and make it a struggle of someone in sexual transition or some bs. It’s what they do. It’s why Hollywood is dead and mocked at “award shows” by actually woke people like Ricky Gervais.
When you are backed into a corner and no option but to fight. This is one of the finest examples we will ever see first hand. God bless this man and his family.
He wasn’t backed into a corner though, he had the choice to slide down the slope anytime like the SEALs that abandoned him did, he made the choice to stay because he’s a warrior
As an American I thank you that you feel solidarity with such a warrior as Chapman that fought fiercely and tirelessly from the front and layed down his life under as hail of fire so that his brothers might live.
Exactly, doesn't matter what faction, country one is fighting. This applies for everyone(hopefully the good side) That we simply just want to live but better yet save the man next to us.
Hello there, i couldnt help but reply to your comment, im now 32 years old, when i was 18, i took a Asvab test i think, or something like that, to enlist for the Marines, in a buddy enlist program, my brother, and i, were enlisting at the same time, but after the test, my brother was killed in an automobile Accident, unfortunately. I was so messed up over this, but shortly after, i met the BEST WOMAN in the world! who absolutely saved me! she became my whole world, quickly, and im so grateful for her and our son, we had roughly 1 year later. I still regret not enlisting to this day, although if i had, my life would not be what it is today, and i thank my wife, and son, for all in our lives! I have no idea where you are in life, but I guess my point is, think about it hard! you really only have one chance to do this as a single, young man! because now i could never leave my boy, and my wife, unless absolutely nessacery! AMERICA STRONG! STAY FREE! LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC!
That is an impressive amount of bravery under fire to save his brothers in arms... I’m an ex Aussie Para/Infantry and that video almost brought tears to my eyes to watch the ultimate sacrifice unfold. R.I.P. Chapman you have earned your place amongst very few brave warriors
If you're interested, the game Medal of Honor (2010) is actually about Operation Anaconda and the battle for Shahikot Valley and Takur Ghar, and features a fictionalized version of these events. You switch back and forth between Seals, Rangers, and Delta operatives during the four-day battle and it's actually very authentic aside from some events being slightly altered or exaggerated for gameplay's sake. It's one of my favorite war games and tries very hard to be as "real" as possible. It'd be interesting to see how well you think it succeeds having actually been in the military.
i was about to comment about it , i love MOH 2010 and more when i found out about Rabbit and Adams and who they were based on , sucks that MOH is put on the freeze because warfighter got the corporate treatment and some DOD personnel thought they were getting to Authentic hopefully MW ( 2019 ) help show EA that people want more on the ground realistic Tier 1 games
This is the maddest of lads. Rest this man's soul. I almost started crying but I held my tears since I'm at work. But this man is a true hero and deserves his two medals of honor, sad he didn't live to recieve them though.
"Either I will come back after hoisting the Tricolor, or I will come back wrapped in it, but I will be back for sure." ~ Vikram Batra , Indian soldier martyred in Kargil War'99 and receiver of Param Vir Chakra equivalent to Medal of Honor. Looks like all the braveheart soldiers think and act alike. Massive respect to the hero!
THAT, my friends, is bravery. I thank you, John Chapman, for fighting for our freedoms and our society owes you and your family the deepest gratitude for your heroism and courage. You are my hero, young man. Godspeed to glory.
This guys deserves all the credit he should get. The team leader on the other hand, left him for dead and lied that he checked him if he's still alive before leaving him. On top of that, the navy seals had the fucking guts to even block this guys medal of honor after all of the sacrifice this person has made. Shame on the navy seals
This is why I do not take it for granted that my mom came back. I am grateful everyday. I'm also saddened by those who didn't come back and their families
I havent shed a single tear in the past few years but the story of this heroic man has made me cry, i might be young and inexperienced in terms of combat like soldiers but i know a Great man when i see one and this man deserves more than just those two medals of honor.
I’ve watched this video a number of times and I’ve watched reactions to it and it breaks my heart every time. I still keep doing it though because I feel like we have to keep watching it and remembering it
In an interview of the enemies we have fought, they where asked what the scariest part of war was for them. they replied "A downed or killed American" this is why... god bless America and John Chapman, the true embodiment of our fight for freedom and the heart that our solders posses.
Make no mistake..this man was a seal , he knew his wounds were fatal..its breathtaking to watch a man rise to such an occasion when he knew the inevitable fate that awaited him.. he is a once in a generation type hero..🇺🇸
@@GriffinKneesock just read an article on this, so sad to see that the Seals would do that just because they don’t want to admit they left a man alive on the mountain. One person suggested that the Seal team leader confused the already diseased fighter that they were trying to retrieve with Chapman, leading him to believe Chapman was dead.
It would be interesting if you reacted to a korean ex-navy seal playing the Clean House and Wolf's Den missions (1 video per mission) in Modern Warfare, if it adds stuff to talk about.
How would someone staring at a screen sayin or doing absolutely nothing be interesting at all? This dude is a fraud, you should just watch the original footage.....
Watching this story unfold with footage is beyond awesome!! Bad ass warrior rite there !! Makes our Country Proud!! R.I.P. BROTHER VETERAN YOU EARNED TWO MEDALS OF HONOR
Man that was hard to watch. I mean the amount of pain and fear he had to have been going through but he kept fighting and never gave up to protect his teammates. I have the upmost respect to everyone who puts on a uniform every day and has to go through this. What a hero
50K!!! THIS IS HUGE! congrats luke! (Ok I wrote that before even watching the video. This is so unbelievably remarkable. My heart goes out to all who didn't make it back home. let alone anyone who has every served.)
There is a documentary series on Netflix called "Medal of honor" telling stories of people who got this medal from different wars.It's very good documentary I recommend it.
I would’ve never known about this if it wasn’t for this react video. I’m full of emotions because I was able to not only hear it but see the actual event play out. Much respect to every seal, airman, and soldiers there that day.
This man was out, came back & brought/rained down holy hell on them…. These are the types of heroes we should be teaching in school. The absolute utmost respect to all whom served & those that have fallen.
Go ahead and tear up my friend... I surely did. It shows you care about the troops that are willing to die to give you the right to do what you do.!! Welcome to America, and God bless our British friends and the Queen for her and our country's supporting each other !! Thank you for your service! - A Proud American!!
This video brings tears to my eyes every time I see it, but the line that really gets me... "from either damage to his equipment, or to *himself*" in regards to him not responding to the comms from nearby Delta Force/SASR. It's heartbreaking but accurate as for Chapman his body was nothing more than a tool he could leverage to save the lives of his teammates.
Discovered you during your MW play through (make me "ed" big), but love your outlook on this, this video hits me in the feels every time I watch it amazing the resolve this man had to put himself in between his men and his enemy
The man was shot more than 12 times and still went fighting to the last breath and the last bullet. Never forget what that man did, and never forget that such valor, bravery, and selflessness towards his comrades should not be taken for granted as you can see here.
I'm watching this on memorial day God bless him for his people with his type of courage that made this country great may his soul rest in peace for eternity 🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 PS If you're going to die, die like a soldier and that he did with a grateful heart I say thank you sir I salute you

@x GeneraI, no. We fight fire with fire and that is what brings you peace. Imagine if the US was weak. We'd be neck deep in terrorist rn.
P.s. we'd be in some real trouble if we had dragons, so idk if you'd want that in your town. Have you ever played Skyrim? Imagine if you WEREN'T the dragonborn...

“I will ALWAYS place the mission first,

"Out of every one hundred men, 10 shouldn't even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them because they make the battle. Ah, but the one, one is a warrior - and he will bring the others back." -Heraclitus
This man is the epitome of a true warrior.
This is dumb quote and out of date. It downs plays the teamwork and skill of operators in the field. The only that separates Chapman from his teammates is the circumstance. Anyone of them would have done the same.
@@Kay0Bot I'm pretty sure they wouldn't, depends on the person and most wont do what Chapman's decisions were. He is a warrior
@@thatguydonut6566 ... They , being his teammates and other special forces of other branches, wouldn't do the same in his situation?! They risk their all their lives to go save one downed person.
I guess I fail to explain why this quote doesn't apply to special forces... GG
@@Kay0Bot I said that the majority wont. I'm talking about the people. Theres still about 10 to 20% of people that will that are in the military it's just that Chapman was one of those percent.
@@Kay0Bot only 15-20% of US soldiers fired their weapons in combat in world war 2, according to an Army study. Less with the actual intention to kill.
I don't think it's so much downplaying the teamwork of war, obviously anyone on a SEAL team is a badass. But me or you in that position? I have no shame on admitting id literally shit my pants.
Sad to know that his team left him after such a heroic act thinking he had been killed. Imagine recovering and knowing youre on your own with multiple gunshot wounds and having the heart to get up grab your weapon and keep fighting for your comrades. Heroic man.
Carkua pretty sure that SEAL team leader claimed he had checked Chapman’s pulse before they left, if that’s true the SEAL who got that MOH is a piece of shit and doesn’t deserve it
@@HeyImTiP I would say its a lie to cover his own back for abandoning his man. They set up the whole operation to save another man and abandon this hero. a piece of shit is right
As the saying goes, no man gets left behind. Chapman would have known this. What people don’t realize is that when he woke up after having been shot the first time, he probably didn’t think he had been abandoned but rather that everyone else had been killed. He was willing to die for his brothers because he thought they had done the same for him. Unfortunately for Chapman he fought to the death for brothers who abandoned him and tried to cover up his heroic actions. The ultimate discredit to a great man. Thank god the truth came out and the real hero was recognized.
@@andrewwebb-trezzi2422 Jeez didnt think about it that way thats terrible
Jeff Davis you could find an official report on it online.
I can’t even imagine getting mortally wounded and continuing fighting for two hours
Brandon Fuchs it feels bad to see someone go like that
not even those COD games could simulte it
I think he knew he was dying. There’s no changing that. But he could change who DID go home
@@Kaadeeem absolutely true brother. At that point he was fighting to make sure his brothers went home and that is why he stands guard at the gates of heaven now. Absolute beast of a man.
There’s countless stories of soldiers going above and beyond for their country and their brothers in arms. There was a gurka that literally had his entire hand blown off by a Japanese grenade and held off an entire assault by himself and his bolt action rifle with the only thing close to his position was the kukri he used to mark where the enemy shall not pass saying the phrase “come face a gurka”
I've seen a reaction with a veteran and his kid. He cried when he saw this it devastated me. What gets me is the fact that this isn't the first person to sacrifice themselves like this...it breaks my ❤
First let me say from a US Marine to a Royal Marine Semper Fi brother much respect for your service. I was an 8654/0326 (Reconnaissance Man Parachute and Combatant Diver Qualified) for 22 of the 24 years i honorably served. I also had the honor of operating with some of Her Majesties Royal Marines they were some of the finest men i ever operated with. Now as for the video i also found it difficult to watch because i had the privilege of knowing the man personally. When i first heard about what had happened i was shocked, but the shock wore off quickly. Why he did what he did is just who he was as a man he had a love for his fellow brothers that ran very deep. As a man of honor that he was he layed down his life to save the lives of others even though he didn't know many of them. He was a great man down to earth and easy to get along with. It's my honor to have known him on a personal level.
Semper Fi
I also am a US Marine, 0341 (Mortarman) Bravo Company/3rd Battalion "The Balls of the Corps"/1st Marines . And like you, I had the honor and good fortune to serve along side 3rd Battalion, Royal Regiment of Scotland "THE BLACK WATCH" in Fallujah. I never had the honor to meet MSgyt Chapman he was defiantly SQUARED AWAY!!! Mission and Team 1st, self 2nd!!! May God bless him and take him into his his almighty embrace and everlasting Paradise.
Thank u for your service sir. All of us Americans, me included will never forget. Also, as an immigrant who is now an American citizen, my family is grateful . My father was a child during WWII in the Philippines and American soldiers saved him from Japanese soldiers. He actually saw a Japanese soldier commit a kamikaze (bombed himself) because he didn’t want to be captured by American soldiers. So, if my father died that day, my siblings and I would’ve never exists. He’s the only boy in his family and his sisters never had kids. I’m only 42 but I’ve always loved my Dad’s WWII stories and all the veterans I’ve talked to since then, because without their sacrifices more people would’ve lost their lives. That’s why I will always remember.
He didnt die he got called upon by Oden himself to help keep Asgaard safe. As shall he be remembered by this glorious day.
Thank u for ur service
Man. What a badass. Huge respect from that Guy.
Sub if gay and if not gay yeah I think that in MoH Warfighter they put in this scene in a mission and Rabbit is Chapman
@@pedrofernandezpena2 There is no scene with rabbit in MoH warfighter, you meant MoH 2010
Ikr he was pretty much playing cod
HOORAH!
For all those guys! God bless!
One of the saddest things is that his team left him behind thinking he was dead. If you know how these guys think, you have to imagine that they were beyond devastated to learn that he was actually alive and that he died the way he did.
This man is the definition of a true warrior. Legend.
The opposite... SEALs and the Navy fought the fact and fought the Medal of Honor to preserve their image. Read in to it more, it was pretty disgraceful, to be honest.
@@gnomish844 I'm not talking about the institution or the higher ups in command. I'm talking about the guys that were on the ground WITH him. Those guys had to have been devastated once they heard the news.
@@SpencerKelly93 -- The unit leader testified that he checked on Chapman and confirmed he was dead before making the decision to retreat.
That clearly never happened. I'm also talking about the boots on the ground. They doubled-down and went in to image protection mode.
They tried to cover it up, and did a good job because most people don't realize it. Also 4 years later and only see the fun stories on this channel not a deeper break down that I've been waiting for about the book
When he woke up after passing out he must've heard " RIP AND TEAR UNTIL IT IS DONE!!"
Good doom reference
Damn now I wanna play Doom....
This makes you look at the world in a different perspective
It really does. 💯
I was gonna comment and say “it really does” but then I saw someone else said it word for word. I agree with you both- once you hear this story it’s hard to get it out of your mind.
He died a true warrior, out of ammo and fighting till the end. God bless him.
"Lord make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true and my hand he faster than those who would seek to destroy me. Grant me victory over my foes and those who would wish to do harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be 'if only I had my gun'.
And Lord if today is truly the day you call me home, let me die in a pile of empty brass"
🙏
Amen....
And so it was
Gunsite Prayer, very appropriate.
AMEN!!!
Amen, massive respect for Chapman. I’m not willing to give a crumb of bread to my brother and here’s Chapman giving his life for people he doesn’t even know.
It took shrapnel, 16 rounds and one through the heart to put this man down. What an absolute machine of a person.
and yet he wasted his life for nothing.
@@StoffiePrductions wrong. He did it to save the lives of his fellow soldiers.
David Amaya seems a bit wrong to say that tbh. He believed in what he was doing and wanted to protect his team who he would see as his brothers. No matter what you think of the SEALs, this man is a hero
@@David-ys4ud still wasted, noone of them should hve gone there. Wasting life for idiotic capitalism and power hungry trash.
@David Amaya he wasnt a SEAL. He was an Airman.
When chapman went down the first time, god brought him to heaven. Chapman said, No I'm not done. My men aren't safe. Let me go and save them. When they are safe i will comeback at peace
On some level I actually believe this. He was said to have been mortally wounded to the point the SEALS thought he was already dead. He was bleeding badly and woke up hours later, didn't speak and just went full out killing Al Qaeda's most experienced fighters? This man was like some kind or revenant.
@@Adino1 I would assume it was a kind of "I'm doomed." feeling, where he knew trying to save his own life would risk the lives of others, so if he's going to go down, he's going to take every single fighter down with him
@@Adino1 In the book the Team leader actually checked Chapman's pulse and he said he didnt feel it. Thats why they left him. Its a gut wrenching story.
You know that you just said something very powerful and important! That is certainly approximately what took place. Most definitely and thank you for enlightening others who may have never experienced you know know a death and come back experience of such and that quick conversation with the highest most powerful entity to exist. Thank u my hair still stands up back of my neck
@@drayton904unfortunately as the video shows Slab never returned to johns position. I'm his own aar he stated that he determined death because the laser stopped rising and falling. The place he marked as checking chapman was where Roberts's body was found. As shown in the video the seals crawled over Roberts body as they exfilled. Chalk it up to dog if war.... Slab would have stayed if he had known Chapman was alive they all might have perished but he never would have left that peak if he thought Chapman was still alive
He is the best definition of "I'm not stuck with here with you, your all stuck here with me!"
This is the ultimate expression of love. Hatred, anger, and ignorance can propel a person to do things seemingly impossible... but there are limits. A deep and abiding love for one's teammates transcends those boundaries. Hate and anger cools and falls away. Love fills your heart and will sustain you beyond the point of certain death or when lesser men will falter. To endure such pain and misery, to pick yourself up and go forward, to lay down your life so that others may live, those are the hallmarks of heroes. May God bless and keep all those who give their last breath in service to others.
Couldn't be more perfectly said
Hooah!
Well spoken sir
Chapman had a mission, keep his brothers alive, no matter the cost, and he fulfilled it to the highest standards possible.
In case you weren’t aware, the American Medal of Honor is - more or less - the equivalent of the British Victoria Cross.
I thought it was more like a dozen teas. That's a heavy honour
I never knew the British equivalent. That's great to know.
Ahh so to get 2 of them that's impressive
The video is unclear about that- he got one, the Air Force version, posthumously. No one has gotten two in over a hundred years - and many of those who did in the First World War are cases of a soldier or marine given both the Army AND Navy versions for the same incident when the forces were fighting together. I think the “two” mentioned in the video, and the joint nature of the battle, means that theoretically another branch could nominate him, but two for the same battle is frowned upon nowadays (there was actually regulations against it until recently).
Greg Weatherup wasn’t the leader at Belleau Wood given like 4?
"Shot through the heart" buddy that guy was all heart! ❤ god bless our troops!
They should make a movie in honor of his heroics if they didn’t already.
Definetly
Disagree
@@1cynik how come?
@@mjpraetorian4386 honestly in 2020 they would try to change the story to some social justice cause and make it a struggle of someone in sexual transition or some bs. It’s what they do. It’s why Hollywood is dead and mocked at “award shows” by actually woke people like Ricky Gervais.
they should make it in the style of a horror movie as told by the al-queda side.
When you are backed into a corner and no option but to fight. This is one of the finest examples we will ever see first hand. God bless this man and his family.
He wasn’t backed into a corner though, he had the choice to slide down the slope anytime like the SEALs that abandoned him did, he made the choice to stay because he’s a warrior
Im Not even American,but im sitting Here crying...
I'm also a non American and I'm sad. I salute to this warrior.
As an American I thank you that you feel solidarity with such a warrior as Chapman that fought fiercely and tirelessly from the front and layed down his life under as hail of fire so that his brothers might live.
same man, I dont even like USA so much but this isnt about nationality
Same...
Exactly, doesn't matter what faction, country one is fighting. This applies for everyone(hopefully the good side)
That we simply just want to live but better yet save the man next to us.
I was scared for a second without the premiere
Retr0nic same lol
I plan on doing premieres for my gameplay videos :)
I got hazy eyed watching this. That man is an absolute legend.
This inspired me to become stronger and join the military when I’m old enough. This story means a lot to me. Thank you for your service. R.I.P
Hello there, i couldnt help but reply to your comment, im now 32 years old, when i was 18, i took a Asvab test i think, or something like that, to enlist for the Marines,
in a buddy enlist program, my brother, and i, were enlisting at the same time, but after the test, my brother was killed in an automobile Accident, unfortunately.
I was so messed up over this, but shortly after, i met the BEST WOMAN in the world! who absolutely saved me! she became my whole world, quickly, and im so grateful for her and our son, we had roughly 1 year later.
I still regret not enlisting to this day, although if i had, my life would not be what it is today, and i thank my wife, and son, for all in our lives!
I have no idea where you are in life, but I guess my point is, think about it hard!
you really only have one chance to do this as a single, young man! because
now i could never leave my boy, and my wife, unless absolutely nessacery!
AMERICA STRONG!
STAY FREE!
LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC!
That is an impressive amount of bravery under fire to save his brothers in arms... I’m an ex Aussie Para/Infantry and that video almost brought tears to my eyes to watch the ultimate sacrifice unfold. R.I.P. Chapman you have earned your place amongst very few brave warriors
Amen Brother
And in thigh to hip deep snow.
poorly armed with rpgs and lmgs lmao. and those 23 robbers, i guess they were stealing back their fallen brothers.
Had the honor of meeting his family last month while I was at AF basic training, we dedicated a classroom at our training squadron for MSgt.Chapman.
If you're interested, the game Medal of Honor (2010) is actually about Operation Anaconda and the battle for Shahikot Valley and Takur Ghar, and features a fictionalized version of these events. You switch back and forth between Seals, Rangers, and Delta operatives during the four-day battle and it's actually very authentic aside from some events being slightly altered or exaggerated for gameplay's sake. It's one of my favorite war games and tries very hard to be as "real" as possible. It'd be interesting to see how well you think it succeeds having actually been in the military.
You mean the game where you play as Rabbit and Addams
Yeah i was about to say this awfully sounds like MOH 2010.
i was about to comment about it , i love MOH 2010 and more when i found out about Rabbit and Adams and who they were based on , sucks that MOH is put on the freeze because warfighter got the corporate treatment and some DOD personnel thought they were getting to Authentic hopefully MW ( 2019 ) help show EA that people want more on the ground realistic Tier 1 games
oh yeah original human should definitely do a playthrough it is right up his alley
That was one of the few games that made me stop and think for a bit when the end credits started to roll.

This is the maddest of lads. Rest this man's soul. I almost started crying but I held my tears since I'm at work. But this man is a true hero and deserves his two medals of honor, sad he didn't live to recieve them though.
The vast majority of Medals of Honor were awarded posthumously.

“You never shoot a large caliber man with a small caliber bullet” TSgt Chapman was a warrior and went out doing what he loved💪
This guys deserves all the credit he should get. The team leader on the other hand, left him for dead and lied that he checked him if he's still alive before leaving him. On top of that, the navy seals had the fucking guts to even block this guys medal of honor after all of the sacrifice this person has made. Shame on the navy seals
Ive seen this like 4 times and ive teared up every single time listening to how he was fighting with 12 fragmentation and bullet wounds
Every time I see that it puts tears in my eyes.... His unselfish acts, just unbelievable. God bless all who serve...
This is why I do not take it for granted that my mom came back. I am grateful everyday. I'm also saddened by those who didn't come back and their families
The most respect I can give is for this man. This made me teary eyed. This man deserves to be immortalized
I havent shed a single tear in the past few years but the story of this heroic man has made me cry, i might be young and inexperienced in terms of combat like soldiers but i know a Great man when i see one and this man deserves more than just those two medals of honor.

I’ve watched this video a number of times and I’ve watched reactions to it and it breaks my heart every time. I still keep doing it though because I feel like we have to keep watching it and remembering it
ToolforOffice I feel the same. Remembering is how we best honor men like MSGT Chapman.
In an interview of the enemies we have fought, they where asked what the scariest part of war was for them. they replied "A downed or killed American" this is why... god bless America and John Chapman, the true embodiment of our fight for freedom and the heart that our solders posses.
Make no mistake..this man was a seal , he knew his wounds were fatal..its breathtaking to watch a man rise to such an occasion when he knew the inevitable fate that awaited him.. he is a once in a generation type hero..🇺🇸
He wasn't a SEAL, he was an Air Force Combat Controller
You do realize he wasn’t a SEAL. And the SEALs actively tried to block him getting the medal right?
@@GriffinKneesock just read an article on this, so sad to see that the Seals would do that just because they don’t want to admit they left a man alive on the mountain. One person suggested that the Seal team leader confused the already diseased fighter that they were trying to retrieve with Chapman, leading him to believe Chapman was dead.
@@caseyellersick6427 Absolutely right my friend, SEALS are totally gutless and here is the proof!

YOU EARNED TWO MEDALS OF HONOR
Bro I can't, I hope his kids and or family is well taken care of man he gave so much and never stopped. True warrior
That video gave me chills, what an absolute warrior. Did everything he could to save his fellow brothers, wow. What an incredible man
Everytime I see this video of him holding his own I stg it tears me up.
What a legend, absolute heroism from all of these gentlemen. Makes it hard to complain about the mundane.
I have never cried watching a video until now. May god protect and cover your soul like you did the lives and body of your fellow soldiers.
thank you John for your service you're relieved of Duty we got the watch from here will see you one day but we still got some hell to raise down here
The fact that he took on a dozen Enemy Fighters with a mortal wound is just amazing. May the Hero Rest In Peace
TWO dozen which is even more insane. He is literally a superhero
Man that was hard to watch. I mean the amount of pain and fear he had to have been going through but he kept fighting and never gave up to protect his teammates. I have the upmost respect to everyone who puts on a uniform every day and has to go through this. What a hero
John Chapman reminds us that heroes do exist, we should all learn from John's act of bravery.
Prior service Army here, and I can't even say what I would do in that situation. Salute to Chapman for his sacrifice. May God hold and keep him.
Thanks from across the pond! Our team guys wouldn't be as good without you guys training us up and using your tactics from the SAS etc.
This video of chapman is phenomenal! Unbelievable acts of bravery

(Ok I wrote that before even watching the video. This is so unbelievably remarkable. My heart goes out to all who didn't make it back home. let alone anyone who has every served.)
Bro everytime I watch this it makes me cry. Homeboy was a warrior
same here. but I am really proud of his sacrifice.
There is a documentary series on Netflix called "Medal of honor" telling stories of people who got this medal from different wars.It's very good documentary I recommend it.
I would’ve never known about this if it wasn’t for this react video. I’m full of emotions because I was able to not only hear it but see the actual event play out. Much respect to every seal, airman, and soldiers there that day.
This man was out, came back & brought/rained down holy hell on them….
These are the types of heroes we should be teaching in school.
The absolute utmost respect to all whom served & those that have fallen.
Thanks for that man, I've never heard that story before. That's difficult yet amazing to watch, Chapman is a legitimate hero.
his last words
"you want me! Come and take me!"
im crying like a baby, brave men shows as the greatness of the soul
Go ahead and tear up my friend... I surely did. It shows you care about the troops that are willing to die to give you the right to do what you do.!! Welcome to America, and God bless our British friends and the Queen for her and our country's supporting each other !! Thank you for your service! - A Proud American!!
Someone needs to call the ref cause this man wasn’t calling his hits
KAPEĆ he just did
This video brings tears to my eyes every time I see it, but the line that really gets me... "from either damage to his equipment, or to *himself*" in regards to him not responding to the comms from nearby Delta Force/SASR. It's heartbreaking but accurate as for Chapman his body was nothing more than a tool he could leverage to save the lives of his teammates.
Discovered you during your MW play through (make me "ed" big), but love your outlook on this, this video hits me in the feels every time I watch it amazing the resolve this man had to put himself in between his men and his enemy
The man was shot more than 12 times and still went fighting to the last breath and the last bullet. Never forget what that man did, and never forget that such valor, bravery, and selflessness towards his comrades should not be taken for granted as you can see here.
I’ve watched people react to this multiple times and every time I tear up😢
I'm watching this on memorial day God bless him for his people with his type of courage that made this country great may his soul rest in peace for eternity 🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
PS
If you're going to die, die like a soldier and that he did with a grateful heart I say thank you sir I salute you
What an absolute hero spirited till the end , may we all go out so heroically, rest in peace john.
