“Unafraid of bullets” is pretty consistent throughout his life
He had Plot armor
@@Tylermac221 Because it's God's custom OC character.
Lies again? Play Doh
Teddy:*literally starts a new military branch by pulling together cowboys, college students and native Americans
using volunteers to pad out the military this was nothing new.
"I'm putting a crew together: we're going to war with Spain! Are you in?"
More like he gets some misfits slaughtered in a meaningless war for business interests. But it's a "proud" tradition: Vietnam, Iraq, and soon in a US-state near your home.

Martin Fiedler oh shit up!
I wish robin Williams was in this
I'm sure he would have seen it as an honor.
Oh hell yes
He died
@boomgoesblitzhound Because he played Teddy Roosevelt in Night at the Museum.
*heart breaks *
Mark ends up on the floor every episode he does
😂😂😂 i freakn love it. I do the same thing when I'm super drunk
Mark: "...I'm ready, baby!"
He is committed to his craft. That being said after his initial lay down, I feel like they re edited some of his audio post production--there was hardly any slurring for a minute.
Since the very beginning
>...Oklahoma, The Indian Territories,...

Jacob Furrow lmaooo i caught that too man
Megadog *Spiderman pointing at decapitated Spiderman meme*
omg that fake horse in the background at 1:22
Lmaoo
Good eye
lol!
Had to look twice to see it. Good catch.
possibly the same "horse" Pat Garrett shot dead and used to block the door to prevent Billy the kid from escaping!
I had no idea that Cuba looked so much like Southern California.

Hahaha.. uh-huh.. basically any place throughout history looks a lot like Southern California when watching DH

"I'm gonna go... I'm going up this hill. And I'm gonna s- *pauses for a second* I'm gonna defeat these Spanish forces. Follow me. If you turn around I will shoot you." Truly inspiring words.
I believe the actual quote is " hasten forward quickly now" which to me is such a badass thing to say before you charge an entrenched enemy position.
Just to thrown in a fun facts about teddy during the capture of San Juan hill, he was battling a handful of ailments that would've made it impossible for him to join the army (such as asthma)
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asthma
He may have suffered from asthma his entire life but he was able to overcome that at a young age by running, lifting weights, horseback riding, wrestling and boxing. It was almost a non issue for the rest of his life.
"If I'm gonna be anything, the thing that I'm gonna be... is a badass."
- Theodore Roosevelt 1869
Quote to live by
I just found out from my wife that I don't have to be drunk to watch drunk history. Probably a good thing.
Your wife is wrong.

What?
Then, I can I be loaded✌🏼
sounds like you need a new wife.
Sounds like you need to call Maytag. Your dishwasher is broken.
Teddy Roosevelt just seemed to be marinating in his own testosterone 24/7.
Roosevelt was an arrogant prick that over compensated for poor eyesight and Asthma. He did thing that made him seem larger than life.
@@mastermonarch my guy killed a mountain lion with only a hunting knife and got shot midway through his speech and KEPT SPEAKING. Overcompensation or not, badassery is badassery
@@mastermonarch you can't make 0,5% of all the things he did, dumbass
So we're not gonna talk about the Nobel peace prize he got a for the russo Japanese war. Vs Obama for being first Black President.
@@mastermonarch Dude, he worked out, boxed and hiked the Alps with his family at 11 years old so that he could give himself relief from his asthma. Compared to some people, the dude's a freaking beast! When his VP says death had to take he sleeping because he would have clobbered death if he were awake, you know he's a badass.
Did you know Teddy Roosevelt was a practitioner of Jiu-Jitsu, as well as Judo? He was an OG in MMA!!! Just when you thought he couldn't be any more of a badass!
This story got really distorted by Yellow Journalism so there is 2 main misconceptions you guys should probably know about:
1. The Battle of San Juan Hill was pretty unimportant, it's just a big deal because Teddy Roosevelt got the victory but otherwise not huge win in the war.
2. The only reason the Rough Riders did not all die in that battle is because the Buffalo Soldiers, a black regiment, were able to flank the Spanish from the other side of the hill (thus the Spanish could't cover both sides and the Rough Riders were able to charge)
I'm not crapping on the show I'm actually a big fan just thought people should know because the newspapers of the time distorted the true story
Ooh there should be an episode on the Buffalo soldiers on that battle!
See? Now the story makes more sense. I'm not knocking Teddy and his troopers but it takes more than balls to take a well-defended hill that the enemy actually ambushed you from. Cheers to the Buffalo Soldiers.
...the entire command moved forward as coolly as though the buzzing of bullets was the humming of bees. White regiments, black regiments, regulars and Rough Riders [i.e. volunteers], representing the young manhood of the North and the South, fought shoulder to shoulder, unmindful of race or color, unmindful of whether commanded by ex-Confederate or not, and mindful of only their common duty as Americans.

"Yellow journalism"? Do you understand what you contributed to this video? Point #1 is an opinion -- "important" and "unimportant" are subjective words based on a person's feelings towards something. _I_ personally think that the Battle of San Juan Hill was fairly important, especially since it led to the siege of Santiago, and that put quite a bit of pressure on Spanish surrender. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish%E2%80%93American_War#Land_campaign Point #2 depends on a hypothetical scenario that didn't happen, proposing that the Rough Riders _would have_ died if not for the Buffalo Soldiers, but we'll never know because that never played out to confirm your hypothesis. You seem fairly certain of this belief (to the point of calling this one single factor "the only reason") despite having no evidence for it. It's fine to believe it, but don't call someone's version "yellow journalism" simply because they hold a contrary belief.
Thanks buddy!
I feel drunk after watching this....
Don't forget that Rosevellt also included Blacks when he went looking for recruits..
No one:
Not a single soul:
LucianCorrvinous Son of Hekaté: don't forget Roosevelt included blacks
@@josephtaylor2085 was this the occasional off-hand unfunny comment, or does this come naturally to you
Idź Idź well I posted that 8 months ago when the meme was still there so why are you responding to something that happened that long ago
Rough history of Dunkirk and call it drunkirk
OMG 😂😂
San Juan Hill, limey
you need an oscar mention dawg
I go to Roosevelt Middle School, and at school we are called the rough Riders. Never knew why until now
I thought rough riders made sweet love to tender bottoms
Nick Offerman would've been the perfect Teddy Roosevelt
Hands-down my favorite president when it comes the plans he had for domestic policy
lol at dude laying down
he always ends up laying on the floor lol
MissPooslie ha ha yes. Last time as well
Mark is definitely the most entertaining!! They’re all hilarious but he’s my favorite :)
Thank you for this content. Teddy also recruited former Confederate from Georgia and Northeast Alabama who were in Wheeler's CAV during the civil war . My grandpa's uncle was one of them. On his grave stone at the top at his wish was the term Rough Rider. Many years later I served in the us army and then the Georgia army national guard in the 1st Squadron 108th cav regiment and our lineage was from the 1st volunteer cav. And we were the modern day Taskforce ROUGH RIDERS. We carried that name with pride from the streets of southwest Baghdad to the mountains of Afghanistan.
This guy is the best drunk friend ever
Chuck Norris prays to Teddy in exchange for a portion of his power
100% scientifically correct
No Chuck Norris is Teddy reincarnated
Teddy replies "F*** off, poser."
"I'm ready baby". Ah God, I love it.
more drunk histories where the dude can actually get a coherant sentence out
I don't understand why more than seventy percent of the comments is going on a belittlement of this series speaking of the historical inacuratecy of these people of past times. I hope these people know that this is supoose to be comedic and intentionally filled with ubsurdities, it's not as if these people are literally drunk while trying to explain these concepts.
That's the point. They get hammered and talk history. Fact check them
Because it is wildly inaccurate I might as well say the Jewish people founded Japan.
@@WS-gw5ms They did, you won't find any evidence though because the government doesn't want us to know because aliens played a part in the creation
They ARE drunk. THAT’S THE WHOLE POINT OF THE SERIES. They get hammered and they try to recall history while drunk.
They are actually drunk. It's just that it's scripted. They're sent the story with dialogue to tell a few weeks in advance and then when film time comes they recall the script best they can while drunk.
Nick offerman would have made a better teddy roosevelt
They're saving him for the biography. That way he can get an Oscar
@Toughen Up, Fluffy hell yeah. Andy Daly
Andrew Tinn who cares?
You know something's wrong when the story teller starts levitating.
Mark. The OG Drunk history man.
As a historian writing a paper on this very story I can confirm all of this. Needs more though lol
I like how they try to show lush Cuba with a dry California valley
Well, I never liked history until I found this video. Thanks for the history lesson.
Seriously? Shame to know
It's just not a Mark episode if he doesn't end up on the floor. Love that guy lol
I'm so loving this series.
Did he say "I'm ready baby" at the end?😂
You know what's really funny. People bitching about how history isn't dark enough instead of enjoying the comedy of the video they are watching.
I swear this is the best series I've ever watched
Being Teddy Roosevelt: 5 stars.
This is exactly how it was explained to me in Jr. High.
Amazing!
And that's how a group of Cowboys and Indians and college boys won a war
Good. Fuck European Imperialism. We're still seeing how they're "Slicing of the Global Pie" is affecting the world to this day, yet hate America for being the World Police.
lilahdog 568 not to mention the buffalo soldiers
The United States Navy won the war with iron ships Spain still used wooden ships and iron clads to defend its colonies the ground fighting was a sporadic annoyance at best.
The Cowboys go to war every Sunday
@@chainsofdoom3465 It is curious that you say that taking into account that both Cuba and Puerto Rico were given the possibility of self-government a year before the war, in turn the United States had already asked Spain several times to BUY Cuba and Puerto Rico, and then of the war the result was:
-Cuba received independence but the United States put a puppet government.
-The Philippines was supposed to receive independence but instead the United States decided to keep it, so they had a war that the United States won, although they were given independence in 1946.
-Puerto Rico became a colony and still is today.
It makes me laugh as you and several United States speak of freedom when saying that is pure hypocrisy ...
This was a great recap for my Test Review, Thanks
You're telling me Nick Offerman wasn't cast as Teddy Roosevelt?!?!
😂😂😂😂 he alwayssssss goes on the floor
Let's all just admit it. It would have been pretty baller if they got Nick Offerman to play Teddy Roosevelt.
The audio was clearly recaptured after he started laying on the floor
GoldStar??
4:15
I thought he said "and he was 11-years-old" and I honestly thought the cameraman would blurt "Wait, what?"
"Im ready baby" famous last words of every drunk
"I'm ready baby."🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
In actuality, when TR got to the top of the hill, he found that a black regiment had beat him to it. Fun Fact!
Black or white, they're both Americans!
That's hilarious.
Bad Cornflakes but Teddy Roosevelt tried to take credit for it and say that he saved this group of black men and defeated the Enemy. Teddy Roosevelt was losing badly and this group of black man saved him. It does matter when groups are left outs of history because of there race when they win the wars for there own country but get treated like shit when they come back home.
@@rashadgaston548 Pretty sure Roosevelt didn't care much whether the group of soldiers that had saved him--he would've taken credit either way.
Wrong. Revisionist bullshit.
Love the music on this
Mark! .....I'am ready baby... LMAO!
Every drunk history they spill something on themselves or lay on the floor 😂
1:02 - Teddy Roosevelt: *"I'm putting a crew together for a job. We're going to war with Spain! Are you in?"*
Guy is always ending up on the floor 🤣🤣🤣
The literal instrumental is beautiful
Amazing
Mark sure likes laying on the floor when he’s drunk
Mark....im ready baby!.... Lol
Thank you
And down he goes again haha
This is the best history channel hahahaha
Wherever you're comfortable
Telling the story from the FLOOR
Do this for all of history there could be so many seasons
Teddy Roosevelt was awesome. lol lol lol. That FREE label
im here for the alcoholism 😂😂
I almost thought Teddy Roosevelt was played by Stephen Colbert
Good story!
"I'm going up this hill" yes you are Teddy.
he speaks very clearly for being so drunk have to lay on floor.
:16 soldier just throws the dynamite on the ground like it was nothing, lol
Professor: that's cool, whats your reference?
Me: uhhhh, Comedy Central... youtube
Cool!
Hahaha this dude always had to lay down
This story is missing a big piece - the 10th cavalry - an entirely Black unit of badasses - rescued the Rough Riders twice during the fighting. And one of those badasses was Capt Horace Bivens of Billings MT - whose sharpshooting record in the Army wasn't broken until the 70s.
Gathering everyone was basically a heist movie montage
Happy New year 2024😂😂❤
So glad my college professor showed this to the class
2:46 is the best face ever
Teddy: Guys... what's up. I need your help, Spain sucks.
That's how you get the party started!
Nice
Teddy Roosevelt. The greatest American to ever live and the only man who has basically “out-exercised” asthma.
Edit. My respect for Derek Waters was already high, but it’s even higher after that sudden move to save the guitar.
i m READY baby!
Teddy Roosevelt... more like Freddy Mooseknuckles amiright?
1900bib 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
beautiful... absolutely beautiful...
I feel like this show is making me drunker.
So he basically created Spartans. Awesome.
We need another teddy
the cowboy on the right at 1:20 looks like Zack Baggins from Ghost Hunters
Does anyone else remember the Rough Riders miniseries that TNT made? I watched that shit all the time as a kid. I feel like watching it now. lol
Im just gonna watch these for my history class tests
TR was a badass way before the Rough Riders. He was always a badass. He was crazy.
I loved it back when the people we're really drunk, not faking it, still watch it cuz of the actor's portraying it
Teddy Roosevelt is the man
Dear Drunk History, I have a request -
Please do a story on the Buffalo soldiers, who were a big part of winning this battle!
Thank you for hearing my request!
XOXO
Samantha Marie There was an old western tv series called High Chaparral. I believe it was in the second season they did an episode centered around the Buffalo Soldiers. Yaphet Kotto(Homicide, Life On the Streets & Alien) played the commanding officer. You can find it on UA-cam. I agree I would love to see an episode about the Buffalo Soldiers.
@@cathleencooks748 But I was thinking, it may be difficult for them to do a drunk history episode on that, because drunk history is a fun show, and in that early time period, blacks were not treated nicely in general.... So how can they include that part and still keep it fun? It may bring a darker tone.... And if they don't include it, it feels like something is missing when you hear the story.... But I will say, they definitely did a great job on the episode about bringing the first blacks in the all white school. Have you seen that one? I have seen it on youtube but I haven't seen the whole episode.
@@pbsamanthamarie Some of their episodes deal with darker moments in history. Watched one a couple of hours ago about the Alamo. They have also tackled The Black Sox scandal, the Haymarket Riots, Martin Luther King vs. J. Edgar Hoover, Giles Corey & The Salem Witch Trials (they pressed him to death by piling heavy stones on him to get him to recant his testimony.) So they have handled serious subject matter sometimes in a light humorous way. Other times more like dark humor. I think the way they could do The Buffalo Soldiers is to just highlight one specific event in their honorable history like their charge up San Juan Hill. It could possibly be handled like this. While the mainly white regiment walked into a trap the African-American regiment smartly went up the side that the Spanish weren't defending. Think humor like in Blazing Saddles one of my favorite comedies.
@@cathleencooks748 Thanks for the info, and I think you have a great idea, on how the episode should be. Maybe the guys who make this are reading us and do it!
Teddy Roosevelt was badass!
I personally prefer his cousin Franklin and Lincoln but, Teddy was an outstanding leader and an honorable man from everything I have heard.
He broke the monopolies, we could do with him these days. Break up Apple, google and the like
Too much bloodlust

Amongthe rules of war are:1-Never try to take hill from dug-in Americans! and 2)Do not assumehill will keep American troops from taking it away from you!
