Chris Kyle: American Sniper | 10 Questions | TIME
/ timemagazine
Disgusting and disturbing… Yes i am referring to the Woman asking the questions
Ahahaha
+dirtypimpbird Disgusting and disturbing? For people untouched by war (like myslef) are those questions relevant and useful.
+Tomáš Uhrík Exactly they weren't relevant at all in the slightest. It didn't help ppl at all get sm insight to how is to be a Sniper at war.
yep but why he go on tv. some iraqui will hunt him down,.
tuforu4 he's dead.
Q: What do you feel when you pull the trigger and take a mans life?
A: Recoil
Made me laugh, thanks x'D
Shooter quote.
Jestal incorrect but i lot like the shooter quote the guy said ''You know what they say is the first thing that a man feels when he shoots a civilian?'' then the the answer is the recoil of your rife
Brilliant.
there is no any difference between sniper and for example wrestler, who can kick ass the man so that it will die
“What if killing turns out to be the thing that you’re best at” .. Uhh… I think he clearly demonstrated that one of his best qualities is his ability to maintain a level head when asked stupid questions.
I disagree. I think that was a thoughtful question. What if one day for example if you came to the conclusion that killing was what you were best at. Where would that leave you? Would that scare you? Would you think you had turned into some sort of monster? I think his reply was spot on but I do not think it was a dumb question. JMO
@@freezegopher7054 Fair point! I guess it wasn’t a “dumb” question, but definitely a risky move to ask a veteran on live TV
@@soffwhere You sound like you are a veteran, I am not and would not have seen any harm in a question like that. Ignorance is bliss as they say.
@@soffwhere I myself found it a distasteful question. I think the set of follow-up questions validated that first question.
@@freezegopher7054 I’m not a veteran, but I have plenty in my family. Some of them have been severely affected by what they had to do and see, which is why my knee jerk response to hearing this question was negative. War is the closest thing to hell, and he went there for her right to be a free journalist. I personally think she should have at least watched her wording.
I’m alarmed by the questions she asked and how nonchalantly asked him to talk about the men he killed. May his soul rest in complete peace. Wonderful man all around.
A wonderful prolific serial liar, whose trove of fabricated stories were discredited by personnel in the United States Department of Navy, the United States Department of Army, the United States Special Operations Command as well as U.S. law enforcement.
He probably enjoys talking about it. I mean didn’t he brag about killing civilians
But you’re not alarmed by the guy killing humans and bragging about it?
@@boxingguru4221I missed the part where he bragged about it pal
@@boxingguru4221terrorists are not people
“If you never had to kill another person again, would you be fine with that”
I do not like this lady
This isn’t Steve Harvey’s account
Yeah like what was that question!!!!
@Mike asking a war vet if they’d be ok with killing someone is one of the most disgusting disrespectful things she could’ve asked him.
Steve Harvey is a bigot.
Mike There’s a reason she’s a journalist. Almost assuredly a liberal; she has no real grasp on the way the world functions. It’s the same concept as applying everyone’s opinion of college to what is actually expected in the work force. We can talk theories and idealism all day, but it’s just not practical.
I feel like she’s trying to get him to say something controversial
Honestly I was seeing a PRETTY SHIT interview so I didn't notice what she did that came across like that
And she sucked at it.
Isaiah mans a hero in my book.
Isaiah you think ulysses s grant is a pos shit? Or General sherman? Or General Patton?
Isaiah he still served his country and saved lives. He is not perfect but Jesse Ventura is a lier too. He lied about going to Vietnam so he is a bigger phony
" I don't really care what they think. " Perfect!
Jesus , talk about biased . No matter how you feel about war , people like Chris Kyle are the reason you have the freedom to even express your opinions
A little "friendly fire?" Dear god, tasteless ignorance.
Yea she’s not funny
I can’t believe she actually said that...
@Al Kamil Can someone translate this to English please?
@@m.redleg252 You can't, it's not an intelligible language
Glad im not the only one that thought that.
This woman should spend a day in the Middle East and maybe she’ll learn some respect
Vanilla Killa agreed
Cringe post and replies
Maybe open your eyes and realize that she a reporter. It's her job to ask difficult questions and even Mr. Kyle saw that as well, he wasn't offended by what she asked.
Pretty sure chris Kyle was warned/prepped for the questions
Geez chill snowflakes! she's a reporter. Her duty to ask difficult questions. Its not disrespect, but its need to be done.
“Try to be the different person “ 💔 absolutely heart breaking. Can see the pain in his eyes. Long Live King. The real TopShotta🩵
This is a great example of how a person is one sided and there agenda is selfish and this shows what this man was made of. The way he stayed calm and collected is precisely why he was so good and it such a shame and a great loss
a well practiced liar kyle was
These questions are so disrespectful. He didn't just kill people for sport or at random like a blood thirsty lunatic. This man did his job professionally just like the military trained and ordered him to do. This interview is twisted.
He took joy from killing innocent Iraqis
@@caoilte8097 no he didn't
@Red Hot he's more of a man than you could ever be
Doobie Kyo village Have you read his book? He’s a sadistic murderer
@@caoilte8097 no he's protecting people y'all have been lied to that we are destroying their country they are Savages they rape and don't like women's rights. They want us over there well at least the smart people the sick ones are the people giving bombs to kids oh you just triggered me.
Poor guy, imagine having to talk to that obnoxious reporter for any amount of time.
Agree so much
Only a true badass can sustain.
@@MrMann-gt1eh 😂🤣 so true
I’m sure he could handle it he wasn’t forced there at gunpoint
I know right? But look at how calm and collected he staid, that's a true Navy SEAL right there.
i almost started crying while watching this, american sniper is one of my favourite movies of all time and this is the first time i am seeing an actual video of chris kyle while he was alive .
all he cared about was protecting his guys at all cost.
RIP chris, a LEGEND that will never be forgotten .
ps bradley cooper deserves an award for how he played the character, you can barely tell them apart.
#Sheepdog
You think he's a hero?
The Americans have no business in Iraq. The war is based on the lie of weapons of mass destruction. What they really want is control of the oil. Mr. Kyle refers to the people who simply defend their country as barbarians. He even enjoys watching others fight for their lives. Imagine if the USA were occupied. Wouldn't some then also defend their country? Are they then also barbarians?
I did a little I didn't know he died 🤕 R.I.P legend
@@coleviney4740 he got killed by another marine while helping him with his ptsd
Lol he got what he deserved at the end. It's called karma.
Just watched this movie for a second time and I’m older now and it hurts this hero died by someone he thought was the same as him. He saved so many guys out here who’s made family’s since. He needs to be in the history books and so much more so he’s never forgotten
what hero are you referring to?
You watched a movie. This guy was a well known liar and a psychopath who killed innocent people.
Chris Kyle is a psychopath and should have been convicted of war crimes
This woman is embarrassing, she’s lucky he keeps himself disciplined.
Does she do it on purpose? I remember her giving someone else some shitty interview.
Hi what does she do??
Alex _ I cant remember the name of the other interview, but she is often blunt and quite harsh with the questions. She’s not rude just not likeable and a lot of people notice
Ikr? Especially the last few questions. They pissed me off and i could tell kyle was getting pissed off as well
@Rural Sweatshirt we aint talking like the interview just happened. But for an interviewer to talk to a veteran like that is sickening and disrespectful af
“What if killing people turns out to be the thing that you were better at than anything?” Such a dumb and disrespectful question.
It's actually an interesting question....definitely disrespectful, but interesting nonetheless.
Astonishing question, yet understandable from behind her comfortable desk & 26' monitor, so devoid of understanding the sacrifice on about a dozen levels that our fighting forces must endure. Gawd, I detest interviewers with so little sack, so absent of knowledge in how to conduct a respectful interview of someone....beyond deserving.
@Macwebb msk Why do you want her to use an euphemism? In the end it is what it is (as Trump would put it.) As a soldier you kill people.
And please dont give me crap like: "This is not killing. Its defending your country." Nobody defends his motherland 20 000 km abroad.
@Macwebb msk See: I think you cant only blame the politicians. You are always responsible for your choices yourself. And you dont protect your country 20 000 km away from your country and after starting the war (in both cases: Afghanistan and Iraq as well). And after reading his book you realize: Chris Kyle enjoyed killing and did it mostly because he liked the way people started to honor him after his kill "records".
And the interesting fact is: His records did him in in the end. Most people think he was shot by a mental unstable guy who had PTSD. Which is not wrong. But people often shoot others for their importance. Please see the attempted assassination of Reagan. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attempted_assassination_of_Ronald_Reagan#:~:text=On%20March%2030%2C%201981%2C%20United,at%20the%20Washington%20Hilton%20Hotel. I guess, he would not have been shot if he would not have been THE famous Chris Kyle. So in the end he died because someone got so used to killing, that he couldnt stop it, even after the war ended. And he got killed because of the killing "record" he was so proud of. Is this Karma? Ironic? You decide....
@Macwebb msk I would say: if you feel guilty for something you have done, than you dont volunteer to make it public. He wrote a book, sold his story to a movie maker and made this and hundred other interviews. Plus: he didnt gave any afford to distance himself. So I wouldnt say he is not proud.
And why do you say: "I truly thank you for their services." ?
If you acknowledge, that a) it was wrong for the US to invade a foreign country, Afghanistan.
I mean: why are you not thanking the Afghan Taliban for their service, for defending their country? It would make more sense in my opinion, than to thank an aggressor. Is it because the US have a more similar culture to Japan?
And b) that it is basically wrong to kill people and that no matter what the politicians decide: in the end its the individual that pulls the trigger and which stays at least partially responsible.
Cheers from Germany and thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Rest In Peace legend. You’ll never be forgotten.
Well, considering that many of the new generation of Naval officers have no idea who Chris Kyle even was, that’s probably not an accurate assessment.
Proven liar
@@I_am_BiG_Al 100% liar without a doubt.
He’s a liar.
he'll be remembered as a scammer by the good people.
Don't think we can blame her for asking these questions, I honestly believe the producers gave her these questions to ask and she just had to do her job.
WOW...I can’t believe she had the gall to ask him if he’s ok not being able to kill again. She acts like she’s talking to Ted Bundy.
Well, just like he said in his book "most americans can't handle the reality of war"
She can't comprehend that in war is kill or be killed, and you're not killing an innocent
Let me ask you, is an American life worth more than another person’s? You invade a foreign country and then kill the locals in the name of your own ideals (and oil, of course). Doesn’t that sound a bit familiar?
@@DAMNS70 you and all the other dumb fucks that think we were not to be in that country or any other country for the matter need your head examined we absolutely had to be there they either hid terrorists or would not order their army to go get them so we had to do it the other country the leader was killing his own people for not following him and then there is the county's that asked us for help to get rid of the extremists you sound like a foreigner!...are you!?!?...if so keep my great country out of your fucking mouth!!!!!......you will never be anything like an American soldier!!!....you couldn't be it's not in your soft ass!!?!!
Kevin Shultis you sound triggered lmao. The reality of things is that the U.S would not have been in that war if there hadn’t been any oil in the Middle East. You’re no better than them. The Iraq war was a fucking lie, Saddam Hussein didn’t have any allegiance with al-Qaeda and they also didn’t have any WMDs like the U.S claimed they did. What makes you better than them? What makes you better than ISIS? I repeat, You’re going into a foreign country and killing their locals in the name of your ideals. The U.S military killed thousands of innocent civilians (7,299 to be exact) in Iraq between both air and ground raids. Imagine if that happened in the U.S? I ask you again, is an American life worth more than another person’s? Why?
@@kevinshultis3631 Look up the total global deaths from terrorism over the past 20 years. Then look up the death toll from the "honorable war" that this man fought in. One measures in at 250,000 and the other at 500,000. So tell me again who is to blame?
Never ask someone, especially a vet, what it felt like to kill
He was very level-headed and real about it. He knew how to handle it
Viktor Suvorov yeah man couldn't agree more, there are just some things you don't ask, even if a script that is written by your employers tells you to. Out of fucking respect and decency as a person...
Always ask them that question. Always.
Its a matter that needs to be present and accountable for at all time.
Cut and dry.
Its part of the job.
The skull symbol on his cap says it all.
He honestly has no problem talking about what its like to kill people.
Not asking that question is more of a courtesy thing. With him, it was OK. But the thing is, you don't know how people feel about it. Kyle was OK with it. But some vets who have killed, are not OK. They may have a hard time dealing with it and do not want to talk about it to anyone. Its just a courtesy thing.
Tyler Nguyen
Can't do the time, don't do the crime.
We all need to be held accountable for our actions.
A true American Hero. God bless our veterans.
Americans ain't heroes they think they are, while their exit is worse for the world
@@ManKMusicnah
I'm here because I finally watched "American Sniper". The problem I have with this interview is the judgemental tone of this reporter. Have some respect...for what he's been through, what he's seen, and what he had to do. Whether she agreed with his doings or not, he did his job as a Navy SEAL for his country in his eyes. Mr. Kyle answered with a lot of grace.
Clint Eastwood’s version of “American Sniper” was a Hollywood production. The screenplay by Jason Hall mixed half truths with fiction. The scene where the “Hollywood Chris Kyle” looks through his scope at the young boy and says, “Don’t pick it up” was fictional.
It was not Clint Eastwood’s or Warner Brothers’ intent to make a film that was historically accurate. It was their job to make a film that would sell a lot of movie tickets. The “Hollywood Chris Kyle” played by Bradley Cooper needed to be “sanitized’ for the big screen. There was no mention of Chris Kyle’s web of fabricated stories.
There are people who thought the “Rambo” and “Top Gun” films were real…. as well as James Cameron’s “Titanic”. Some people can’t distinguish Hollywood productions from reality.
notice how she calls him a killer throughout the interview.....
He's a lier

yep. she was diggin. for a rating. he wasn't biting. and he could tell the longer it went on. the dip smile
She, or should I say, ABC have their own agenda.
Man! I was thinking the same thing, That little laugh of defeat she did.
Not even the enemy could interrogate the navy seal easily , reporter nah
She was wretched!
The most American man. A father a killer and a angel to those still hurt. RIP Big Dog
What our service people do to protect our country is beyond what I can imagine. Thank you for your service.
Thanking a sociopathic liar? Many of his claims have been disproven by the government and he even went out of his way to ruin the reputation of a former Navy Seal Jesse Ventura for notoriety and profit. He’s a traitor and anything but a hero. Stop being a sheep and research things once in a while, it might stimulate your brain.
This was ridiculous. It wasn’t a real interview, Chris was just defending himself from the appalling questions.
@Star Trek Theory what did he lie about?
@@balisongboi7163 His achievements medals he won (documented by the USA military) Lied about punching out an ex navy seal Jesse Ventura a lot of his book was made up.( his commanding officer admitted to this)

+Evan97 When she asks a Clinton, or an Obama, or a Pelosi, hardball questions like that, I'll accept that it's her job. Until then, she's another puppet, singing the party song. I'm not saying I personally dislike her, or others like her; they've been programmed from college days on to think like that. It's just a sad thing, really. When the pendulum swings back the other way, because of the ditzy things the media has done, they'll be the first to start whining, because momentum like that can be a dangerous, dangerous thing.
you're right
I do not support war in any way but you have to respect this man, he is a true warrior who was trying to do what he thought was right, you should respect all seals immensely, they pay a heavy price to be as lethal and incredibly skilled as they are, no one in history can fuck with the navy seals
agreed friend
Bot23 Oh shove it dude. There's always one like you
Bot23 Let's hope it never comes to that mate.
I can't respect a lying piece of trash that would slander a true hero to get publicity, sorry but Chris Kyle was a piece of shit and got what he deserved when the marine sent him to hell!
James Mitchell Ahh you're a particularly slimy troll!
Rest Peacefully, Chris. Thank you for service. 🇺🇸
As a RETIRED Army war vet...I was able to do MY job knowing we had AMAZING American HEROES like Chris watching our 6!!! The loss of this GREAT man, due to his trying to HELP a fellow soldier, PROVES exactly what Chris said about him being a REGULAR fun loving man....😢
you probably were legit. kyle was a scammer.
“I really don’t care what they think.” More of that, please.
Couldn't believe Chris Kyle was already saying how we should react towards the haters these days 🤣🤣
That was my favorite quote too, really don’t care what they think.
Lol not in this day ans age
The hell he doesn't. That's why he wrote a book and did a $hit ton of interviews...he definitely cares what people think of how well he tooted his own horn. He was a perfect example of a narcissist. Kyle was a joke
@@annaroberts3160 a joke ? An American hero sniper. Who was in the trenches picking off terrorists. You call him a joke ?
They should have bulked up Chris Pratt and had him play this guy in the movie, they look so much alike!
You do know Chris Kyle was sued by Jesse Ventura for the lies in his book correct?
Brian D. Roberts True. But what does this have to do with the apperance of Chris Pratt..?
It's also amazing how close Bradley Cooper looks like him in the movie. I think Cooper's performance in the film would be much better than Chris Pratt's if Pratt was picked.
Brian D. Roberts yeah and he sued his wife after he died that's why everyone hates Ventura now
ur mom You would do the same, it is a matter of truth and a lie. Kyle never should have said it, period.
I wouldn’t call him a war hero , he don’t deserve a medal
Chris Kyle you're a beautiful soul, you didn't deserve what happened to you. Thank you for fighting for your country and for seeing in all what families go through not just the warriors like you. You're amazing. Rest in peace, may God show you so much grace at the gates. Lots of love to your family. A true hero.

oooo
Jordan, one question for ya; If you and a bunch of friends go into a neighbors house to free him from his belongings and the man tries to shoot some of you and you kill him to protect your friends, is it justified? I personally have no side on this, could care less about that war or the reasons to go in. Just trying to make sense of your statement.
Damn straight, if you're not with us you're against us and if you're against us you don't stand a chance
Erick, You must have forgotten about Vietnam the VC and NVA defeated your country and mine, fucked us up real good and they didn't even have tanks.
Alright so we've been beat once, in the past but now with the technology that we have to back up the best military in the world we are pretty much unstoppable. One man racked up 160 kills with just his rifle, and don't forget operation redwings where four SEALs took on an army of taliban fighters. Point is if your not with us you're fucked
Dude is possibly the biggest liar in the history of navy seals
he was a fake and phony.
It's about the 3rd or 4th time I used to watched American sniper. LOVE
“I’m a better husband and father than I was a killer” respect brother. Way to shut her out and make her feel like shit. You can see the cringe on her face at the end!
Chris doesn’t deserve the respect he gets, he’s a horrible human being morally
He could have just said "ma'am I'm a navy seal"
what an utter disgrace of an interviewer, trying to make this hero out as some mindless murderer
He’s your brother? The guy lied about punching a fellow Marine to get famous and sell a book. He’s a proven liar in court. Grow up with the “brother” shit
@@mattm8932 stick it

Blare I didn't even notice, I was totally focused on the interview
Lmao
Omg thank you, I needed that laugh.
Lol
her female hindbrain and subsonscious was aroused by the real alpha male who gets the job done what most men are too chicken to do.
The truth is, he was a soldier following orders with a talent for shooting a long-range rifle. He was simply doing whatever he needed to do to protect his comrades and applying selective humanity. That was his job. Unfortunately US foreign policy was very destructive not only to the countries it invaded, but it put regular American's in the crosshairs of harm. American's who believed they were doing what was in their countries interest and their interest.
Most soldier's are just young people seeking purpose in life who are exploited into doing the muddy work that the controlling elites themselves would never do - so that the 1% can live comfortably.
The fact that veteran's have so few benefits tells you all you need to know. But they glorify their soldiers with a couple medals because it's the only way to keep the cycle going.
Thank you Chris kyle for your service. Thank you for laying down your life and protecting your fellow soldiers rest in peace and God bless.

His book has been proven to be false. On multiple occasions
Bruggman Brandon by who?
30 seconds in and i already can't stand that woman.
17 seconds for me
Boy this interview sure aged like hot milk
Nothing wrong with these questions. You’re talking to a Navy Seal I’m sure his feelings aren’t gonna be too hurt considering he killed over 160 people. She’s doing her job; asking hard questions, and he’s doing his.
People are to sensitive nowadays.
My God that one question was atrocious.
Reporter: If you never got the chance to kill another person again would you be okay with that?
Chris Kyle: ... Yes
Reporter: But you're good at it?
How about if you never got to defame an American hero again would you be okay with it? Because you're incredibly good at that. Seriously the guy was a veteran not some crazed serial killer give him a little more respect.
CGBdan he took part in a completeky unjustified war, no valor in that. Google Simo Hayhe for a far superior sniper who actually deserves the title hero
He didn't declare that war. He like thousands of other soldiers just went where they were told to go. Regardless of politics, I may say it was just you may not, he served his country admirably. He deserves the respect we all should give our veterans unless you don't respect our veterans; in which case you're probably a socialist piece of garbage.
CGBdan I don't grant people respect for following immoral orders to go kill people fir no reason, that's so fucking senseless and wrong. I'm.moved to the point of tears, SINCERELY, and full of honest hesrtfelt gratitude for the WILLINGNESS to risk your life for your country, but this war did nothing to protect us, it was entirely unjustified, and obeying an immoral government is no justification for killing people, period. I don't give two shits about what your "duty" is, when you are told to go kill people for no reason it is wrong to comply. If you want to hrro eirshio a far superior sniper Google Simo Hayhe, he actually deserves accolades
And no, I'm about as as far from a socialist as you can probably get, I just recognize it's wrong to partake in an unjust war that kills hundreds of thousands if Innocents
@@yodaguy6956 it's not the job of the soldier, what would you have him do throw down his gun and get court marshalled? If you're mad be mad at the President except when all Chris Kyle's stuff went down it was Obama. The only President in American history to be a war for all 8 years by the way. Chris Kyle served our country and you should respect him for that. He didn't decide who to invade, he just laid his life on the line for the American people.
CGBdan when you ate irdreed to start killing people in an unjust find war, yes it is more moral to walk away than continue to help propagate a war that is killing so many innocent people. Yes that would duck for him, but not as much as all the families of those who die. Just following orders doesn't cut it when life and death is involved, those take priority over individual consequences.
The thought that she took at least 6 min of his life angers me greatly.

@sinkingships offools no dipshit her asking questions about him killing wouldn't show anybody anything other than what she betrayed of him to be a killer. And if you don't know that deployed troops kill especially the NAVY SEALS then your brain dead. There is no need to ask a vet about killing to get more insight not relevant at all
@sinkingships offools and every deployed military member or vet that has deployed is a "Legend". Each and everyone of them has rolled the dice and took a chance of life or death to protect our freedoms and the freedoms of others. And your uncle did not make that quote up so before you come here trying to call people 12 year olds and dismiss there opinions, I would do some research. And get rid of that fucking cookie monster pic, calling people 12 yr olds smh
he took a lot of lives for the usa,struck a public official, and ducked the jail time for it.
Sucks she didn’t ask him about shooting looters during Katrina or his kung-fu killing of 2 carjackers 😂
Cus that didn’t happen
Not a sniper, a murderer
This should have been titled "A hero meets a *unt."
A *unt* is useful she's not
More like a hero meets an Adderall addict.her mouth should be slapped
He wasn't a hero, he was just a good soldier
Sumner Encarnacion no he was a hero, but also a lier
He was a liar
After that interview, Chris Kyle understood her a lot better than she understood him.
I like that
VERY good point!
After that he wrote a book about being jumpy before joining forces
He had her pegged first question...probably before the camera turned on. 😉🇺🇸
Just imagine how many innocent Iraqis has he killed
Guy was a liar and a scumbag. He lied about a ton of shit. He lied about his medals in the first edition of the book and it had to be fixed. He lied about shooting looters from the top of the Superdome after Katrina. He lied about getting into a shootout at a gas station. He lied about knocking Jesse Ventura out at a bar after Jesse allegedly said "you guys deserved to lose some guys", which he referenced in the book but left Ventura unnamed, but later said it was Ventura on Opie and Anthony. Ventura sued him and a jury determined it was a lie. Did he serve his country faithfully.....I have no reason to doubt that. Did he get out of the Navy and lie about shit to make money and become a celebrity? Yes, based on what I know, he did. He lied on an older SEAL with name recognition to help sell his book. Kyle didn't deserve what happened to him, I would never say that........but he was not a good person.
you have real issues
@@jasonmiller4046 most of what he said is correct
This interviewer really knows how to disrespect someone who risked their life in order to protect. Shame on you TIME
Patty C for real, she seemed quite disrespectful
No he didn't. He lies for a living.
What else can you expect from this Shit Rag magazine.
Red or Blue Pill bruh
She doesn’t write the questions . She works for certain cast of people who control the media and banks . They like to wear hats that aren’t very big 😛
To you Kyle. I wish I could be like you.
the world misses you.
Colt Edwards i don't think the world cares
Colt Edwards The world misses? Usa invasion forces misses him, yes.
iLoveHugeAssandTits well, my mummy loves me.
nobody even heard of him before the movie and all the world knows is that he was probably a bit racist and liked to kill people.
Heinz Sielmann Facts pls?
***** you're an idiot.. you spell sense "cents" like money.. sorry but your input is invalid because you're an uneducated idiot.
His book is on my list to read.
This is your reminder to read his book. Go ahead and order it.
His temperance and coolness is what we need in this corrupted world
Just watched American sniper for about the 3rd or 4th time, the ending kills me everytime. To survive neary 4 years worth of tours in the most dangerous places on the planet, to save so many of his fellow soldiers, only to be killed by a soldier he was trying to help, in his native land is so devastating and utterly heart breaking. RIP legend.
Chris Kyle is a narcissist liar 😂😂 respect his work overseas but he's a liar and I'm glad jesse Ventura won that lawsuit, and rightfully so.
Takes a lot of guts murdering people when there not looking but karma got his ass live by the sword!
He got what was coming to him he killed so many innocent people just to get the most kills it was a game to them
He lied about punching a guy to sell a book and get famous.
in his own book he claims to be at nawlins after katrina shooting the looters! which of course is fabrication. but hollywood sells
Reporter: Do you want to be called as good killer.
Chris: No , instead of this I want to be called as best father or best friend.

It looks like you ran this through google translate 20 times.

Well he will be remembered as a fucking liar.
Chris Kyle lied about punching Jesse Ventura and destroyed his life.
I liked this interview...straight questions, straight answers
Thank you Chris. Thank you for your service
these questions should never be asked to someone who has done some service
Kyle isn't being precious about the questions, its only his moron peabrain chickenhawk fanbase that are getting upset about the style of interview...
Apparently some folk think it's fine to ask questions like that to a vet or a person who's served and killed for our country. He controls what information he lets out and when he lets it out. I'm in total agreement with you
Jake Rysted - clearly Kyle himself is fine with her questions, and nobody forced him to do the interview.
zubb8 The only people who care are the commenters lmao
I agree! What a show? It's all a show. I don't believe a word the media says anymore.
She despises everything he stands for - she cant even comprehend the world he lived in and made safe for all of us. RIP Chris!
Do you think he and John ashbury ever got drunk over a campfire? Would you ?
Sorry Ashbery
Made safe? Do you have any idea what kind of problems US's foreign policies created? specially after WW1? Read books moron, don't learn from Tom Cruise movies.
@@ignaciogobet605 look dumbass we are talking about one person not US policy’s and stfu because Chris Kyle was more of a man than you’ll ever be
@@ignaciogobet605 it has nothing to do with us policies or politics it has to do with him, he did nothing but his job that he sweared an oath to do
That look he has is all to familiar to me. My Dad was also a sniper, years before Chris Kyle's time. My Dad remembers every one. He also regrets having to ever take another life, but, he had a duty to do, same as all other service men and women. And he would do it all over again if he had to. Chris Kyle has that same look of regret my Dad always has.
Pure class "I really dont care what they think of me, I mean I've got my family, I've got my friends, im not trying to make new friends"
John Dohn boohoo crybaby get over it , no one cares
Darune snadstorn
That’s why he died like a bitch
@@jefferyepstein9210 big words for someone on the internet i dare you to say this to his family and or military vets.
When she asked about the confirmed kills, I can sense a level of sadness in him.
Jared Blocker Yeah, every interviewer seems to define him by his confirmed kills, and it's not good.
*****
It would be if he wasn't in the military. He was put in so many awful situations that called him to shoot another person... it's awful, but it's war.
I can sense a level of bullshit in him and its amazingly high
+Stuntman Dan I sense a level of douche bag in you and its amazingly high. He killed people for your god damn freedom. Have a little respect.
GamerEnabled
awww thank you, but you don't know 2 shits about "freedom" kid. wana see how real freedom looks like? go to any South American country and see how that is working for them lol. you wouldn't last a day before you start crying for your momma to take you back to the States. the only real example of true free countries that actually can handle freedom are in Europe. leaving that aside...im glad Kyle is dead, oh and btw that "sadness" you detect on him is just hesitation to look for a lie lol
The motive behind this interview was clear as daylight and Mr. Kyle handled it with grace and competency. Men like him are the reason why this arrogant interviewer can sit there comfortably and ask those disrespectful questions, it's just as he said, they have no idea of what goes on outside the borders of the country. They exposed themselves with this one. Rip Mr. Kyle, you are a hero to all.
Years later and here i am. I own the movie and the book American Sniper. Just watched the movie again and i still water up watching the film. What i want to say im trying to say with respect Time. The line of questioning this woman gave really irritated me. Chris's response was spot on. You have not a clue what happens over there. I dont either. I have some knowledge based off of autobiographies i have read. My helmet for my pillow by Robert Leckie etc etc..... but i have never experienced it first hand. But i respect a veterans word when they go through struggles returning to civilian life. Respect what this man has done to protect the freedoms we enjoy today. Rip Chris. You will never be forgotten!!!
She clearly has an agenda during this interview.
No cap
Sure did take all of that INTJ brain power to comprehend journalism huh
@@stephenroy4144 If you think that journalism is supposed to be biased then you're one to talk, steve. Lmao
libtard leftist agenda, as most media ownded by demonrat supporters
You could see it written on Kyle's face. He knew from the first moment he was talking to a hag.
I’m truly disgusted with this interview RIP Chris Kyle
Chris Kyle is a pathological liar. Proven not once but twice in court.
@@dave9547 shut up man, you get to type that comment because of him 😂
@@Austin-ds1pf go back to sleep. You're an ignorant child.
@@dave9547 explain to me what he did wrong
@@reaperx1236 search in Google. He's a proven liar on many things.
What a legend, I still look up to Chris to this day.
Me too. He motivates me so much and reminds me to never give up on my goal to become a Royal Marine Commando. Because of him, I fell in love with my country and became patriotic 🇬🇧
got what he deserved,karma
He handled that well. Shame the same couldn’t be said for the interviewer.

May this man rest in peace a true American Hero!!!!
Trevor Brothers because he stood for killing women and children in a country he had no business been in ?
no, because of the amount of Marine and soldiers lives he saved by being there. when youre supposed to go you go. you go because someone else will take your place if not. and when you're there you aren't thinking about the greedy politicians benefiting themselves. the ones with their families, nice cars, in their PJs getting ready to get In their beds with their wife. you're thinking about your brothers the ones there with you, and know that of you aren't at your best and doing your job right they might not get to go home
Sted Nark did you even watch the video? It's not like a wanted to be there.
zacharyt007 so he was forced to sign up against his will ? I always thought military service was voluntary.
Trevor Brothers As a SEAL, he was a war hero. But as a private citizen, he was a lying scumbag.
I know this man passed away years ago but wouldn’t it be cool to proudly say this is my father and nobody is messing around with you at school or his daughters if he was alive. Even though shooting people for a living doesn’t sound good, I’d imagine most people would be proud calling him their father. RIP soldier
“I don’t have to kill to live”. You can hear the sadness in his voice that she was asking him these questions
@Star Trek Theory you are a pathetic bitch. Stfu coward
@@tsherman393 Jesse won! This guy's a liar 👍
Star Trek Theory suck your self you dusty yute
Star Trek Theory Chris Kyle is fucking dead
@Star Trek Theory what's wrong with you
Omg I couldn't stand his interviewer.
And?
April Wobbleton are you serious
I know right ? because American Soldiers shouldnt be ever fucking questioned. if they kill for their country, then everythings good. ... well. keep telling that to yourself. A Killer is a Killer. Doesnt matter why you did it.
@@GregorioStyreco If it weren't for what you refer to as "killers" who fought in every war since the War for Independence, you wouldn't have the freedom to criticize something you obviously will never understand. No one says it's easy, but when a soldier kills an enemy combatant or a police officer shoots someone holding a gun to the head of a hostage taken in a crime, they may be taking a life, but that is one of the ugly truths about living in this corrupt world.
That's why you are not a reporter.
Should have asked him why he lied, on Governor Ventura. A senior seal
“If you never got to kill another person again, would you be ok with that”…WTF KIND OF QUESTION IS THAT?!?! He is sooooo much better than me. RIP and thank you for your service!!
This guy saying yes mam no mam keeping calm throughout all the interview even though he probably had to think about all the deaths I salute to this guy and anyone thats fighting for America
You mean fighting for israel
Hes great at making up lies on the spot. I commend him
Profiting off fallen soldiers 👎
Agreed
@@solidsnake902 lies?
"I'm a better husband and father than I was a killer". God bless Chris Kyle and all of those like him that do the unthinkable to protect us.
great warrior. RIP!
ANGRY MAN WITH UGLY WIFE Did he say that he shot people from the roof of the Superdome during Katrina . Hero for shooting poor desoerate people most likely Black people ?
uhuhuuuhhh scary that people like you even exist...but the fact that you aren't in a mental institution is ...well...INSANE!
CORKY SOAKER Chris Kyle was an American hero. To say he was a murderer is to raise your hand and show yourself as a loser commie!
And they are cowards. They just search the internet for God fearing people to harass. Hey commies, we fear GOD (the real one) not you!
I can’t imagine reading that book and not asking questions about his obviously false claims. He didn’t murder Americans from the top of the Dome. He didn’t shoot and kill two car jackers in Texas, etc.
Some people in the comments are saying this woman was asking bad questions and intentionally trying to make Chris look bad. I didnt get that feeling honestly. I mean she asked questions about killing and all that but thats a big part of war lol and Chris is known for being a badass sniper with 160+ kills. Idk i just dont think she was as disrespectful as some are saying. Its a sensitive topic though thats for sure.
Why did she not ask "How many people did you save?" just tried to make him look like a machine made killer.
He made himself look worse than she ever could. He exposed himself as a liar who embellished his medals, kills and many other stories.
It's easier to make a machine made killer than a human that can handle the violence and return in one piece.
That’s exactly what he is tho , a trained killer and a great one
@@franksmith8210 he did
You cannot confirm how many you saved. Maybe he shot the next Hitler and saved millions,or he shot a innocent and saved none.
You cant count a dead body though.
She’s annoying . Kept calling him a killer . He’s not , was not a killer . He’s a trained professional sniper doing his job and duty . A killer is somebody killing civilians . He was in combat killing other combatants or soldiers . Not a killer in my eyes. Nobody calls a normal soldier a killer so why brand him and other snipers with that negative name. He did his job and did it well. Don’t ask the guy to explain himself . He has no need to . RIP Chris .
A man who takes another mans life is a killer, which is fine in my books.
I felt like you could see it in his face that he knew he was a killer and wasn't proud.
Gixer750pilot killing people defending they’re own country from an foreign invader who decimated they’re country which is now overrun by isis etc.
well, he is a killer
Gixer750pilot right. There’s a difference between murdering someone and neutralising a threat.
🫡 RIP Chris. Never forgotten.
People have freedom because of guys like this. Everybody wants the perks but nobody wants to get their hands dirty.
Well said.
And the Scuzlim here in the US have the right to free speech because of him. Its ALL FUCKED UP!
kffive LOL he is not defending freedom
Giagantus What part of "Support and defend the constitution" in the oath we take don't you understand? A: All of it!
But hey, you can read peoples minds dead ones at that.
kffive The oath taken doesn't necessarily have anything to do with where the powers that be send those who take the oath. The Bush administration spent American servicepeople's lives horribly recklessly for no good or lasting reason. Besides, if America really was all about freedom and justice and protecting those who can't protect themselves, we'd have gotten involved in the situation in Mexico years ago.
kffive LOL you make alot ASSumptions. Regardless of you don't have freedom because of him or others. The US hasn't fought for its freedom since WWII. Every other war has been BS. You do know that Vietnam was fought on a known lie (the Incident in bay of Tonkin was a lie). Same thing with Iraq and to a lesser degree Afghanistan (the Taliban could have given up ObL.
Soldiers today fight for big buisness and it's sad as fuck. But since they have wrapped the cause in BS alot of people actually think the fight for freedom. LOL US has the biggest amount of people in jail (per capita as well in sheer numbers) all due to bug buisness (private prisons). And you speak of freedom. The consitution is great, really it is. But they US is a dream and until people wake up it will always be a dream.
An American hero in every sense of the word.
The greatest sniper in history.
When his life was tragically cut short, for our "leadership" in Washington to NOT recognize the loss is truly disgraceful.
Your an idiot. Simo Häyhä had 500 confirmed kills. Also, this guy was an ego manic
Oops, I misspoke....I meant to say: the greatest sniper in "American" history.
Thank you so much for correcting me. I hope my being "an idiot" doesn't keep you up at night.
itscork My prostate already does that
itscork Not an American Hero. A REAL American Hero would be trying to save lives instead of take lives.
did not recognize our loss cause obama hates the military that piece of shit
Thank you for this vid interview. This man saved 10 times the number of Americans. Semper Fi brother. Rest in peace.
He accepted hundreds of women and children in Iraq
