I went to Tijuana once on a day trip with my brothers. We didn’t drink, just walked around the market, bought a souvenir or two, had some tacos, chatted with the locals, then peaced out back across the boarder. 100% wholesome story.
IIRC, Jack's experience with the failed parachute actually played a part in altering the standard procedure for landing with a failed parachute. Before, the standard procedure was basically how the player-characters in the Assassin's Creed games survive the leaps of faith. I don't know when the change was made, but now, the procedure is essentially what Jack did.
@@trevdestroyer8209 I don't think there's been another failure on the same level as Jack's, but from I have learned, for the partial failures - i.e. the parachute did not slow them down as much as it normally would have or opened and filled too late to get the full effect - casualty rates have dropped, though I have not been able to find out by how much.
The first time I remember hearing about Jack Lucas was during one of Bill Clinton's State of the Union addresses, when Mr. Lucas was one of the guests of honor up in the vistor's gallery.
I don't think there would be much talking to anyone who survived the pacific. Absolutely wild that he needed to go to high school, what are they gonna teach him hahaha
Yes that video of the old Marine was from a podcast called unsubscribe. They had 2 WW2 veterans on the show about 3 weeks ago or so. I am currently trying to get an address of the Marine that was on Iwo Jima I have a friend of mine and another Marine who went to Iwo Jima during his time in Japan. He was able to collect sand from the beach there and both him and I want to send some to that Marine veteran if he will accept it. I myself was given some and whenever I handle the container I become emotional. I served in the Marine Corps, and to have that sand gives me a deeper connection and more respect for those who came before me. I do not know who I will pass that along to, I do have a nephew by marriage who is an officer in the Marine Corps currently, and he is the front running candidate since he would understand and feel that same connection I do. Great reaction as always, and it does show just ho different young men were during that time, and why they are called the greatest generation.
Yeah, that hits. While in the Marines I read too many stories of my brothers throwing themselves on grenades. The Marines are not a death cult, but we are a cult of sacrifice. PLF. Parachute Landing Fall. This guy augered in from 1,200 ft with a trailing parachute, PLFed, came up standing and walked it off.
The most marine marine to ever marine. I think the Marine Corps was so insistent on verifying ages because marines have to do some insane shit and make your own decisions on the battlefield. Imagine doing that when you're barely old enough to *shave.*
Also, I would singed up at 14, I wanted too and wished that I could, guess what happened when I was 14? 9/11, I just got done feeding cows, was getting more coffee, before breakfast, and finishing getting ready for school, to go work out, before normal school hours for football. Cause yeah, even in MS, of you didn’t lift weights and run, before school, have weight training class, on top of PE, you weren’t gonna be a starter, on anything. I always wanted to be a Marine, so I played football, ran cross country and swam in the Oregon rivers and lakes, ocean at beaches and open ocean. The water and climate is cold and wet as hell. I ran usually 3-7 miles a day since I was 8 grade. Hands down the day 9/11 happened, the first plane had just hit, I came back in from feeding cows, was getting more coffee before the second hit, went into the living room, was still west coast, so early korong for an 8th grader. 3 hrs behind NY. I watched the second come in and hit, told them, this is war I’d seen the brief replays of the first one, was suspicious, but could happen, after the second, nope, this is war. I already wanted to and would before that happened, that made it a sure deal. I woulda signed in the spot, if allowed too, to immediately ship out.
When the chapter in titled not service related came up when I first watched this, I thought that they were going to say that his injuries that he acquired in war were not service related. I started swearing my guts up because this is exactly what they did to Roy Benavidez and other Vietnam veterans. But it turned out to be something completely different, so I laughed at that point
I’m from SC and went to USC. I’m assuming you are talking about Corporal Kyle Carpenter who received the Medal of Honor after his injury in Afghanistan in 2010. He is the youngest living recipient of the MoH. Thanks for mentioning his story as well.
Oh yeah, more USMC greatness. Our normal and standard .being truly epic. And as history gets longer, we have to be even better and more insane/lucky, in order to not let down our past greats, our saints if you will. We are in fact the largest, crazier and most insane cult to ever exist.
React to skibidi to terror and if you want can you do a estimation on what level of threat it is like a guardsmen level or astartes level or whatever 👌 plz
My man straight up Dark Souls rolled his way out of a lethal fall! He's not lucky, he's a video game protagonist!
This needs to be a movie

Did it ever work again?

i bet he probably felt like he was screaming grenade for an eternity....
Can't believe MEPs didn't catch that he wasn't 17.
MEPs only became a thing in 1965

Don't forget to react to his carlos hathcock video
followed by the "Pew View" video where the reenacted the scope shot
He simultaneously had 10 and -10 Luck at the same time.

I hope you do the hathcock video!
1200' and tuck and roll. Amazing.
When I was 17 I got medals in arena pvp in wow, guess people are built different.
Holy shit I grew up near Hattiesburg.
Everything was going good.
Then it just stopped going good.
They were just built different.
3:29 The picture is what Jack Lucas looked like at age 13! At 13, he was five eight and 200 of muscle! He was destined to be a legendary Marine!
Here we go! ❤
This video was great but my fav is still the white feather video which I hope you get around to watching :)
Oh yeah, more USMC greatness. Our normal and standard .being truly epic. And as history gets longer, we have to be even better and more insane/lucky, in order to not let down our past greats, our saints if you will. We are in fact the largest, crazier and most insane cult to ever exist.
Wow. Turns out god has favorites.
