When America is a second away from flipping our selector switch from “appropriate” to “proportionate”!
Too close for missiles...
America is ALWAYS a second away from flipping our selector switch from "appropriate" to "proportional."
The Fat Electrician speaks fluent veteran which makes it 100 times more funny if you are a veteran and have that frame of mind. 😂
Not a vet, but ave known enough and can understand.
yup.. Was he a grunt?
Yeah, he has that air about him.
@@Svensk7119, that's not air, he's fat . . .
@@shannonotoole3526 iirc he was a medic in the national guard
I might be wrong on that though
Just to be clear: "Finish the work left unfinished" could refer to the cutting down of the tree. It could also refer to the retaking of the entire Korean peninsula.
The Fat Electrician left out a significant part of the story. The American and South Korean working party were not heavily armed due to the rules of the JSA. So when they pulled back, one of the two U.S. servicemen killed, 1st Lt Mark Barrett had fallen into a small ravine 15ft (4.5m) deep and was the left behind. The ravine was tree filled and also because of tall grass, could not be seen from the road or Observation Post. The OP could observe the North Koreans acting strangely. Over there course of 90 minutes, they were observed going into the ravine with an ax for about 2-3 min before coming back and handing off the axe to the next North Korean. After those 90 min, it was determined that 1st LT Barrett was missing. He has been hacked to death by the North Koreans at the bottom of the ravine.
Shut up and go make your own channel then.
I never know whether to like this for your comment or, not do anything because of the content
@@shannonotoole3526liking doesn't mean agreeing. Confirming you took in the information is a better way to look at it.
This Is why We can’t have Nice Things
So Petty
He also left out the part that it was originally an UN operation
Seeing people’s reactions to the sheer amount of military power America brought never gets old lol.
My dad was in Korea when this happened. He said it was a very intense time when this went down.
My foster dad was in the Koroean war in the 1950's in the brit army. He was in a mk5 centurion tank. His stories told me the Yanbk army was outnumbered 2 to 1 by the chinese and they ran.
the brit army was outnumbered 20 to 1 and stood their ground and forced China into piece terms as nothing china had could take out the centurion tanks. The french were outnumbered 50 to 1 and did retreat till the saw the Brits standing and fighting so rallied and came back to suport thre Brits while the yanks justr kepty running and refused to take any further part in the war. the yanks started that war by invading North Koroa. China said they would stay out of it unles the yanks got to close to their border. so the yanks said ok lets get as close to China as we can as China is just bluffing they wont dare go to war with us.
There doing it now by building up forces close to China to get China to react and mobilose its trops then the USA can say hey China is mobilsing their ready to start a war lets get in there 1st on a premptive strike. Isrteal does that al the time build up forces on the borders of their neighbours then when the other country reacts by mobol;sing it troops to defend it border Isreal says oh they r preparing to attack us lets attack them 1st. its called philibustering goad ur enemies into mobilsing to give u an excuse to attack them. or do a fals flag attack where 1 country will do a terrorist attack on its own ppl, and blame it on the country they want to go to war with.
Like the Amercan Indian wars the govr paid setlers to set up homes in Indian land then cause trouble with the natives so the natives would retaliate to give the US army thr excuse to go in and attack the natives.
USA has broken every treaty its ever made. they have threated NATO countries with being nuked if they refused to join US wars. George Bush speech said ur either with us or against us after 9/11.. basicly saying if none of the NATO countriews join their illgal war against Iraq they will be at war with the USA. coinsidering all the hijackers were Saudi not Iraqi why did they not atack Saudi instead. simple Sadam Hussian was fighting against ISIS and stopping them from taking over tyhe middle east and the USA wanted ISIS to invade other countries to give them an excuse to invade those countries. 9/11 was a revised operation northwood attack created by the CIA in 1961. the plan to hijack civi planes and crash them into cities in Florida and Blame it on Cuba.
7/7 London bombings was done by Isreal with the aid of the CIA. thats been proven but covered up. 9/11 was a joint attack by the CIA and MOSSAD. were al being lied too about everything as Isrealis own al the main stream media so we only get to see and hear what they want us to hear. Ive nothing against the jews as their getting percasucted as wel as Isral is not jewish its zionist and jews hate the zionists. and Zionist hate the jews.
I was in the Army at Ft. Riley Kansas at the time. That's the 1st Infintry Division, The Big Red 1, motto; Always 1st. This became so huge, we were out on the town, the MPs show up with cattle trucks and immediately take us back to the barracks. We were mustered into formation and told what happened and we were going to Korea. We were on our way. We packed our duffle bags, received our orders to go to Korea, hopped on busses and proceeded to Salina, Kansas where a ton of C-130s were waiting for us. We barely got off the buses when they told us to get back on the bus , the N. Koreans appollogized. That was it, over and done
Paul Bunyan is a mythical giant lumberjack in the forests of the USA and Canada.
2 B-52's bring more bang than the ENTIRE Vietnam Conflict combined at once.
Operation Market Garden?
Y’all need to try and reach out to him and see if y’all can go to one of there range days! He talked about reaching out to a few reactors from foreign countries!
I desperately hope you enjoyed your time in Texas! I'm so glad you got a chance to come, and I hope mom found her time pleasant as well. Come back and see us soon y'all!!!
The Fat Electrician ALSO left out that President Gerald R. Ford served in the U.S. Navy during WWII (1942-1946) and rose to the rank of Lieutenant Commander. This is also why the newest class of U.S. aircraft carriers are named after him. By U.S. law all carriers have to be named after a person to have been connected by service in the U.S. military, preferably the Navy, but ultimately any branch, if named after a person.
So what you're saying is, in 2150, we can have the Theodore Roosevelt Class of carriers?
Then explain Ronald Reagan. He was a pampered reservist with an armful of deferments, who did all his soldiering in Hollywood. Dude spent WWII in California making bad movies, and warming swivel chairs. Classic Chickenhawk.
@@octaviusmorlockSure, conceivably, why not? We already have a Nimitz-class named for him in active service. Just needs to be the first of a new class to name the class after it.
Another Grand Rapids Native? Lol. Yes we are proud of GRF.
He didn't give his whole life story. You're jealousy is showing 😂
Also not mentioned about Gerald Ford: in 2001, the Kennedy family awarded him a "Profile in Courage" award for pardoning Nixon. This act lifted a shadow off of the office of the President, allowing the nation to heal. It also may have cost him the 1976 election due to the pardon's initial unpopularity.
I've been to that tree, I've read that plaque. There are also pictures of the very beginning of the attack. I was stationed at Camp Hovey 2 ID in 1985-86.
That tree was coming down. lol
A couple of his earlier shorter videos you should watch are the most gangster battleship of all time (USS Texas) and his quack bang and OODA loop video.
There's a couple of his older videos that can be paired up really well for like 2 a video. The USS Barb and USS O'Bannon. The US Iowa Class Battleships and the USS New Jersey Sunk an Island. The ship that wouldn't sink, the USS Nevada and the Ship that wouldn't die, the USS Laffey. Davy Crockett and Atomic Annie. There's a lot of pairs of short videos that just are great matches that are never reacted to.
I had an uncle over there in the JSA at the time. The stories he told me would curdle your brain.
I only heard about this a nukber of weeks ago myself. Nero may attempt to wage a war on the sea god, but he was a mere chump when Americans will bring our military against a lonely tree.
When I was in the Navy, I had do a courier run to the DMZ. Another female sailor had to go with me.
We get to DMZ, our American soldier asked if we wanted a tour. YES!! So we go into the UNC building. Inside we’re being showed the side. All of a sudden, in my side vision, I see three North Korean soldiers coming towards the building. Our guide noticed too, then he said “if I tell you to hit the deck, will you”? We answered “affirmative “. My other sailor was blond and they were very interested in seeing her hair. As soon as they started coming down, two American plus one N. Korean soldiers came down immediately facing the N. Korean soldiers. My heart went to my throat. Then Lopez told to calmly turn around and leave the building. As soon as we did, the N. Korean soldiers left, so did the DNZ soldiers.
I am an old Vet, 1970 -- 1975. When the South Koreans came to Vietnam. Horror came with them. No like communism. My, TAE KWON-DO. Master, SOLOMON HAKTOK YUN. Special Forces, President Guard, weapon, empty hand. Seattle, WA. 1970s, '80s.
During the Watergate happening I was 14 years old. I had strep throat and was sick for 2 weeks. All I had to watch on TV, only 3 stations back then, was Watergate hearings. Yes, Nixon was never impeached. He had the decency to resign for the good of the country. Those of us that were aware of this lived the history. Oh well, I still like most of his reenactments commentary. Peace. Stay safe. God Speed. 🍻♥️🤘
You got that saying backwards. It's "They thought they were playing checkers while the other person was playing chess." This was more of a case of North Korea thought they were playing checkers and said, "King me!" and then the USA as the DM told them, "Roll a dexterity check....Alright now roll for initiative. Okay, here's what happens with those rolls. You fail."
So NK was playing checkers, and USA was playing Dungeons & Dragons?
I don't care how dark it is, I can tell if I'm on a bridge or not.....I'm either dry....or I'm wet....on a bridge, not on a bridge ! ;)
The JSA is never dark. Both sides have lights up and search lights at the guard posts. Remember, shadows and darkness can allow sappers to infiltrate your defenses.
Right?
@@brianeleighton Wait, North Korea can afford lights on their side now????? I was going to say even if it's dark you can tell which side you're headed towards because the one that looks like and absolute abyss devoid of anything worthwhile is on one end and on the other they probably at least have BTS playing.
Hi Beesleys! Love your reactions, and especially wjen you react to the Fat Electrician. ❤
Guys Lol. I know you know the DMV would be totally lit up.
With bright bright lights. 😂😂😂
True. 😂
As the saying goes “ We will cross that bridge when we come to it”. Well the North Koreans fucked around and crossed that bridge figuratively and actually and found out.
I love this story! One of the best.
The museum at the DMZ has an exibit. The pictures were as graphic as you can imagine.
This kind of shows there difference between the UK and the US. We sent that much to trim a tree. Roughly twice what the UK sent to start the Falklands.
No laughter at 11:51, I'm kind of disappointed. 😂 Awesome reaction, though 😉
Now a days a single, small Jdam & the tree is kindling. Instantly.
Always love a notification for a new Beesleys video. Great job as always James and Millie!
Oh, we’ve lost. Vietnam and Afghanistan show that. We’ve had two draws as well. (Korea and 1812.) But as you’ve learned, our underhanded tactics are what got us where we are. Thomas Jefferson with the Barbary pirate states.
I don't count Vietnam as a loss, it was a political cluster fuck of epic proportions.the goal was never to win, the goal was Air America. Drugs.
I have yet to see a bad video done by Nic/The Fat Electrician. By the same token, I have yet to see a bad video done by my favorite Beesleys. 🙂 You are legends too!
You guys need to do a video on Paul Bunyan to know who it is😂
😉Don't forget Babe, the blue ox
@@KevinRodriguez-sf8sy well he would be included in any story about Paul
😆oh yea! I Just didn't want Babe forgotten.
Could be about American folklore both real and fictional like Paul Bunyan, Johnny Appleseed, John Henry, Daniel Boone and so on.
@@HikingPNW yes I was thinking the same thing I believe there is some reactions out there about such things
You could do a total series of reacting to this guy. He would've made a great History teacher. The bright side is...he's actually teaching history except it's just on a different platform.
Next time do sergeant reckless from the fat electrician
It was not a tank. It is called an engineering track. It has a blade a crane and a engineering mortar. It is used to knock things down or fill them in.
Welcome back i hope you enjoyed your Trip.
You are the Bee’s Knees! 🐝🐝
You cant miss that bridge even at night. I spent a lot time there
The single thing that the Americans do better than anyone else is logistics. @HabitualLineCrosser put it best when he commented about how the Americans got everyone out of Afghanistan on short notice. It wasn't the evac that was impressive; it was moving 130,000 people 3,000 miles in a week. (From "he's awake") All the firepower in the world isn't of any use if you can't put it where it needs to be when it needs to be there.
Unfortunately it was a stupid idea and we left shit there for the terrorists to play with. Elections have consequences. Hard to see the war zone from your basement.
I was stationed in camp casey / grieves. I got out of the army in 07 in korea, much has changed recently, but the truth of the matter korea (area 1) was not a nice place to be stationed.
Lets just say i done 10 years in afghanistan / iraq,, i would give my entire life savings to spend 500 years in the army in afghanistan / iraq than spend 10 seconds in area 1 korea. there are fates far worse than being shot at.
defcon from 1 to 5
Luv you two.
America spends about 400 billion dollars a year on their military which is more than all other countries combined. We don’t fuck around! Plus, Americans themselves carry weapons (I have several myself) so if anyone decided to attack us in OUR soil? They would be completely screwed because we’re all locked and loaded and would defend our country against a military attack before the military had a chance to respond! There’s a reason why we all fly the Stars and Stripes on our lawns. We’re very patriotic and have fought for our freedoms since we signed our Declaration of Independence. And we won. Watch this dudes video of the navy that America created for the sole purpose of taking down the Pasha of Whatcgamacallit, known now as Iran. This guy is great at telling stories of American history and makes it interesting. If they okayed his videos in our schools, maybe our kids would actually learn about American history. (And yes, we know that “America” is a continent, but we call the USA “America” and refer to ourselves as “Americans” because that’s just how we are. lol!
3:22 what do you mean there’s an excuse, it’s a bridge
Gerald Ford and his wife founded the Ford Modeling Agency, because they were both models when they were younger. Yes, President Ford was a male model when he was playing football. And he married a model.
Hey Beesleys, you need to check out the story of Charlie Brown and Franz Stigler incident that happened in WWII. It involves a US B-17 pilot Brown, and a German BG-109 ace pilot Stigler. It's a heartwarming story about enemies who because best friends. Probably the best story to come out of any war.
Yes, we do lose. We were not permitted to win in Korea, Vietnam, Iren or Iraq! Thanks to politicians.
Please watch his video on the Willie D and the USS Iowa - it's one of my favorites! :)
There's two distinctions between the two associations for Taekwondo in the US. Places like the YMCA and many other places on average here teach under the American Association created for more availability of the martial art in the US. The rules tend to be far less strict, and it's closer to a combat sport style of teaching. There's a lot more blackbelts, and high ranking belts as a result of the more lenient rules, and the Association being made for more Americans to have the opportunity to participate, and learn self defense.
The Korean Association is a lot harsher in what it forgives, with exceptions coming from whichever individual is teaching's personal choice (usually small things like not even reacting properly to forgetting something as you were trained to more than once), unless stated otherwise as a requirement. Unlike the American Association, it's also only taught in Korean, or mostly Korean, with reminders. You're also tested on your knowledge of Taekwondo in Korean. Think more like military training, since it is the main martial art of the Korean Military.
The biggest difference I know of is that some on both sides look similar to each other too from private teachers, but if you're associated with the Korean Association to teach, you have strict requirements to follow during all testings.
For those who wonder how I could possibly know any of this, some background is below :D
I started Taekwondo in the YMCA, and got my first belt there at 13. They happened to be more serious about it at this YMCA under the American Association, so when I stopped going there, and switched to a private teacher a few months later under the Korean Association, they decided to accept my test from the YMCA, and let me advance from there. My mom and I both did this together at both places until we both got our 1st dan black belt, including concrete slab breaking for our test (a normal brick would've been less intimidating than that thing for a first time brick break). The successful break was a requirement to get a black belt under the Korean Association.
TLDR: Two associations for Taekwondo in the US. The Korean one is harsh enough that only 1% who start make it to black belt, with most quitting around blue belt, or just learning the basics of white and yellow belt. They don't baby you.
What Nixon was impeached for was nothing compared to what various world leaders are up to nowadays, but the old school Presidents did a lot worse. Back then the press also was made to cover up a lot of things. JFK's various affairs made Clinton's game of bobbing for apples under his desk look like frat boy shenanigans. President Johnson would often whip out "Jumbo", a nickname for a certain body part and wave it at journalists asking questions he didn't like, right there on the White House lawn. Half the stuff FDR did during the Great Depression would have gotten him multiple impeachments. Lincoln tried to get a federal judge imprisoned because the judge wrote an opinion that certain things Lincoln were doing were unConstitutional. They didn't have a 24/7 news cycle with the Internet backing it up, so politicians could get away with stuff like that. Nixon, in his defense, started peace talks with mondern (Communist) China, the first president to succeed. To make it "Hard Mode" it was during the Vietnam War, which was backed by China and Russia. Only Reagan could continue his work a decade later, but he had "Easy Mode" because the Chinese knew the USSR was about to break up. Nixon also didn't have it easy because he was handed the Vietnam War and he started the process to end it, Gerald Ford signed the papers Nixon wrote, basically. I liken Ford's presidency to a WW2 vet fighter ace taking a private jet on a trip with his buddy who's flown in planes but doesn't know how to fly and then halfway to the airport, the guy says, "You got this? Good!" and bails out, leaving the unskilled average dude the controls as his friend jumps out the window yelling, "Good luck, you're going to need it!" and then tries to work the radio to figure out how to land and not crash.
Originally, I believe, the work party was there to trim the tree.
I have been to the President Ford Library and they had nothing on this.
Please do SSGT Reckless the marine corp war horse
Agreed. That's probably my favorite TFE video.
Yes!!! 🙌 I agree!!! ❤❤❤
That's one of the best stories I've ever heard. SSGT Reckless was pure badass.
Charlie Brown and Franz Stigler is my all time favorite story.

Appropriate and proportional
The two American service men that died during the incident that started everything fell into a deep bank that the NK's took turn going down and hacking at the two soldiers with axes until they died.
Oh why, oh why. I succumbed and I died. I felt your heart explode. While I ran a mile around you in 6

North Korea: leave my tree alone
America: best i can do is cut it down. Lmfao😂😂🦅🦅🇺🇸 it's either our way or the highway. Now we're not going to debate whether that is right or not because really it just doesn't matter at this point and it never has. The world plays by America's rules we don't play by the world's rules. Lol😂😂🇺🇸🦅
The tree was on the South Korean side. It did not belong to North Korea.

My question is . If he didn't get impeached ?
Why does he need a pardon ?
He was impeached by the house, but he resigned before the impeachment could be completed in the Senate. So he was impeached by the House of Representatives.
Mostly political realism, rather than any legal theory. Ford saw the likely outcome of prosecution of a president was years of political balkanization of the US, followed by eventual 'reprisal' prosecutions and impeachments, turning into a reciprocating, repeating mess of political conflict that would suck in the courts and in turn politicize them, too. (Not unlike today and our near future, in all likelihood, actually.) So, given that he didn't care for the presidency himself, he more or less resolved to (1) politically fall on his own sword and make himself a villain by issuance of the pardon, precluding himself from re-election (but he didn't care about that, anyway), so that (2) it would halt that cycle of seesawing political prosecutions from ever spinning up in the first place, and (3) bonus- if Nixon accepted the pardon he would be *criminally* sanitized but it would be *politically* tantamount to an admission of guilt in accepting it. So, Nixon's politcal opponents get a political scalp- they're satisfied- but Nixon doesn't go through a criminal prosecution- he's satisfied- the country doesn't get a tit-for-tat cycle of partisan impeachments and indictments out of political reprisals- the stability of the government and nation is satisfied- the public gets to politically and historically move on- the people are *mostly* satisfied- and the cost is Ford can't ever muster up enough popular political support to be president again- but he didn't want to be president anyway in the first place, so *he* is also satisfied.
It was a big damn mess, and he gave everyone most of what they wanted at the cost of something he didn't care about himself anyway. The epitome of political compromise.
You can interpret this as simultaneously the greatest example of principled and pragmatic political leadership in American history, and the worst. It's fit for an outstanding case-study of the concepts of politcal realism (or, classical political Machiavellianism, which gets a bad connotation, but is ultimately just pragmatism, unlike the clinical term).
Wish they would have burned the tree and sent them the video lol

Anything dealing with North Korea is going to be mad .
Nobody tells a story like TFE
😂 Great Video! 👍
Nic (the Fat Electrician) was slightly less than accurate when it comes to 2 things in this video:
1.) If I had to say what event was the single biggest case of "F**k Around & Find Out" in history, it would be when a man named Inalchuq, who was a governor of Otrar in the Khwarezmian Empire, decided that it would be a good idea to first kill a trading party from the Mongol Empire, and then to confiscate all their trade items. Genghis Khan then sent an ambassador to discuss the issue, which was when Inalchuq decided to take it to truly epic levels...and had the ambassador beheaded, with the body being sent back to Genghis Khan (the head, according to stories from the time, was in a basket tied to the saddle that carried the headless corpse). Now, if there was ONE THING that Genghis Khan NEVER overlooked, it was when _anybody_ harmed his ambassadors. Even a bruise given to one of them could be an issue punishable by death. For what Inalchuq did, Genghis Khan actually marched his forces to the Khwarezmian Empire and removed it - _and all those who lived in it_ from the face of the planet.
2.) The United States actually "yeeted" (as Nic called it) TWO manhole covers into space. The first time, nobody knew what happened, so the guys running the underground nuclear tests at the time set up another manhole cover like the first one, detonated another nuke, but this time there were high-speed cameras filming the cover. Only one frame of film actually shows the cover moving, and from the shutter speed and the change in position over 3 frames (one showing the cover firmly welded over the shaft it was covering, the next showing the cover being launched, and the third frame showing the cover completely out of frame) they were able to determine that the blast imparted a velocity of roughly 125,000 miles per hour (200,000kph). There is some debate which is still taking place as to whether that outrageous speed, coupled with air friction, would have resulted in the manhole cover actually melting before it reached orbit, but we'll never know. Since the escape velocity to leave earth is 25,168.75 mph (or 40,270kph), it can safely be said that if it made it out of the atmosphere, then it was never coming back to Earth.
For that closing bit at the end about the manhole cover, a video about it from him will probably never happen. This is because while it is a fun story, it is actually not true, at least not from what evidence there is.
To start, calling it a "manhole cover" is a bit misleading. This is not his fault, it is just how it is always described. What happened was that an underground nuclear detonation was being performed, and this thing was a plug for one of the ports that led down to the bomb (not where the bomb was lowered through, more like an exhaust port). It was a massive construct of steel and concrete that was meant to keep any radioactive material from being blasted out and forming fallout.
When the bomb was detonated, more explosive force than was expected went up through the port that ended with this plug. That force was enough to punch through the plug. Fortunately, hardly any fallout was formed, so hardly anyone suffered any ill effects from it. However, that plug was just gone with not even a trace of it remaining, meaning that even the housing that held it in place was also gone.
The truth is that nobody actually knows what happened to this plug. The most common narrative is how TFE described it, but there is no evidence to suggest that this was the case. There was no radar track, no piece of debris, nothing. It was just gone. Sure, one could say that it was far too fast during the initial bit of the supposed launch for it to be tracked on radar, and that certainly could be the case. However, even back then, radars were able to track objects at high altitudes regardless of their speed, and for something made of concrete and _steel,_ there was no possibility of it not being noticed on radar, whether it was a whole piece or broken up into however many multiple pieces.
So why is the story that it was a manhole cover that got yeeted into space? Because the more ridiculous-sounding stories are the ones that tend to persist and, in most case, turn out to be true. That said, this is one of those other cases where, as all evidence (or I suppose if you want to get technical, the complete lack of it) points to, it did not happen.
To be clear, the event behind the story absolutely did happen. It is just that the result that the story is about did not.
God I love the Merican Military!
Please keep reacting to the fat electricians videos
That's cute, South Koreans came with Tae Kwon Do and some weapons hidden under their vehicles. 20 Hueys, 7 Cobras, B-52s, F-4s, F-111s, 22,000 troops, and the Pacific Carrier Strike Group.

Honestly... The new mic packs... I just keep seeing a plane coming down to land with that blinking green LED. Or flying. I see planes.

Oh come on! Richard Nixon never got impeached, he resigned, there’s a difference.
Yes he was. He was never convicted in the Senate, but he was absolutely impeached by the House. His resignation just saved himself and the American people a Senate trial.
@americansmark Correct, Congress began the process of Impeachment in October 1973 because of the fallout of the "Saturday Night Massacre" in which many high level officials around Nixon resigned.
And he was set up by the CIA
