the shot of mcknights face after he says i’ll be ok is AMAZING acting … his facial expressing is literally like “ how do i explain something like this “
As someone who read the book, relations between the Army Rangers and Delta Force weren't exactly ideal. To the Rangers, Delta Force operators were stuck-up know-it-alls who thought they owned the place. To Delta Force, the Rangers were crude amateurs whose incompetence put them at risk and almost got them killed on several occasions. This scene, where the Rangers refuse to leave the wounded Delta behind had to be one of the most powerful scenes this movie had to offer.
I heard about that. George Hand from Jack Murphy;s podcast recently talked about how some operators from recce didn't even talk to him once during his entire tenure with Delta. So he didn't bother going to recce as they were all old with joint problems. Obviously, it's one account only, but it stuck out to me as odd.
Steele felt the discipline was lacking in Delta, the Ranger Battalions rely heavily on the discipline to the point of being anal. I had a guy come into my Guard unit from 1/75, said they needed their Kevlar to drive a Humvee to the ft. Benning Burger King. That said both Delta and the Rangers felt 10th Mountain were little more than armed civilians.
I often wonder of how the shock value of this movie's battle scenes. Sure, they're in movies all the time now, but back in 2001, this was the first movie about modern warfare to show intense battle scenes like this. We had already seen the devestation of war for WWII when Saving Private Ryan came out a few years before. But this was the first time people saw it happening to modern soldiers.
I know long time but just yesterday I was reading that this movie is in top 3 “most realistic” according to veterans. I think there is a UA-cam video of the top 10 most realistic movies according to veterans. Funny thing is # 1 is a documentary not a movie, duh.
I’m a US Navy veteran (‘83-‘89). Never saw combat, although I was in harm’s way once or twice. I’ve seen Full Metal Jacket, Apocalypse Now, Saving Private Ryan, and other graphic depictions of war. Something about the historic nature of the other movies made them less traumatic, despite the realism. But this movie; this scene-stands out in my psyche. There’s a ‘that could have been me’ sense to it that grips me. Last night I had to ask my stepson to stop playing a FPS video game because I was feeling triggered. Like, this shit is real, still happens…and you’re *playing* it as a *game*. I couldn’t take it.
Read the book. And Michael Durante book about it. Not only did this scenario actually happen, but the man who was cut in half by the RPg (Grizz) lived long enough to get back to base and die there surrounded by his fellow members of Delta.
One of the only movies that captures the fact that war is terrible for everybody involved. The morale of the story is that don’t disrespect people that willingly put their bodies and minds in the way of stuff like this
@@xxmemestar69xx82 Idiot if they were criminals they would have avoid war and chill out in their nice homes just like you soy shit. General Aidid killed more than 100,000 with hunger, remember that next time when you disrespect someone you don't know.
was the soldier who got shot in the back the same one who removed the armour plate from his vest before the mission at base? He said to Grimes he doesn't have plans on getting shot in the back.
I believe his name is Casey Joyce. After the battle, Eversman went through his vest to find any notes or letters to send back to Joyce's family, and he found the bullet that went straight through his heart. Also, this movie has a ton of inaccuracies. If you really want to know the true story and even more, read the book.
***** Twombly's (Tom Hardy) and Yurek's (Tom Guiry) banter regarded night vision goggles, not body armor. Also, by ".50 caliber" I'm assuming you mean the 12.7x99 NATO or .50 BMG fired from a powerful Barrett M82 sniper rifle or say a mounted machine gun on a truck? Yes, that round penetrates body armor. Assault rifle and shotgun rounds are much, much, smaller and is the type that body armor is intended to protect against.
+Ian Moon Grimes is told by a few people what not to bring: Nelson says no water, Twombly says no NVG but just bring ammo (and dope and beer jokingly), and Joyce says no body armor which Grimes then replies that he'll keep his in. Yurek is standing by listening and placing items back on the table too, like the NVG, which is brought up later when he's teamed up with Twombly and Nelson alone in the streets near dark.
Saw the movie when I was a kid. I just looked for this scene and I’m contemplating wether I should watch it again or not. I can’t imagine being there in the flesh and witnessing shit like this all around you.
0:44 the facial twitches and blinking from Tom Sizemore as if he’s like “ am I really seeing this” is incredible acting. He was one of the greatest, it’s true imagination to try portray something like that. Just like in saving private Ryan when he overdoses wade on morphine his acting and look of strength but empathy and disappointment made you really believe the scene.
1:41 Nvr noticed this little detail when watching the movie, but the guy had a ND (Negligent Discharge), probably from all the chaos and adrenaline, and decided to put the safety on before rescuing Joyce.
if their kia, take their dog tag and load them into the vehicle for transport. if they're in pain and about to die then give them morphine if you know you can't treat the combat casualty and they will be kia soon.
kuma down in that situation, maybe give him painkillers assuming he doesn't die in the next 10 seconds. But get his information, try to get CASEVAC 9-Line up, and get his corpse on a helo when it arrives.
As a veteran I teared up during this movie I won't even lie I served under JSOC during OEF 2009-10 out of Tikirit, Iraq....Mets some really great people man
Awesome! I actually enjoyed reading Othic's story from the actual book, and am glad to hear that his talents at marksmanship were recognized to earn him a promotion.
Othic was a favorite of mine. I liked his story while reading the book. I particularly liked that he was a skilled sniper who worked with Delta time to time.
Might have already been in the comments already but the soldier this was based on survived for a surprisingly long time. He didn't completely lose his lower half, just had most of his flesh from lower abdomen to mid thigh blown off, both front and back. They managed to keep him alive on the Lost Convoy, all the way back to base and he died while they were trying to transport him to the medical facilities in Germany. Same with the guy who got the RPG lodged in his torso.
There's a weird anachronism in this movie regarding that. Here, you see Othic finds a severed hand, but when you look at Martin, you can see he still has both of his. In actuality, it was "Alphabet" Kowalewski's hand that "Othic" (actually Hand, but Othic's character in the movie is a composite of the real Othic and Hand) found and pocketed. The scene with Kowalewski's death doesn't come until later in the movie, and if you look closely, you can see that Kowalewski lost his left hand when the RPG hit him.
Imo, Joyce’s death among others underscores that even when you follow your training to a T and ensure you have the most cover possible in your position, it is simply a numbers game and like a lightning strike as to whether you die in war or not. If you’ve read the book, there was a young guy in this same part of the battle who was doing everything wrong. He was shooting wildly with limited cover exposed in multiple directions. He didn’t get hit, remarkably. On the other hand, Joyce was professional and doing exactly what he needed to do when a gunman appeared behind and above him. No one except one or two people saw it and it was so quick they couldn’t do anything about it. Joyce was shot through the heart and likely died in seconds (no a shot in the heart does not kill you instantaneously). As a member Joyce’s death is a reminder that whether you’re killed or not is a matter of luck at times.
Oh, good old Stebbins. I remember that exact part of the book and I basically assessed the same thing. It continued to perplex me how just incredibly LUCKY that kid was...
Joey Kins nicest thing you can do, is OD them in morphine.. Know a few combat medics who said they knew person was gonna die a slow painful death and they just ODd them on morphine or fentynal
It's not everyday you find someone's ripped hand next to you......or half a person's body as his entrails bleed out right in front of you.......this movie took me emotionally when I first saw it.....
Honestly, this is my favorite scene in the movie. The cinematography and music really paint the picture that the Army has completely lost control of the situation and is just fighting to stay alive.
Further details on this situation can be heard from Tom Satterly's description of the events from that day. He was with Delta Force during that deployment to Mogadishu, part of SFOD C-Squadron. The D-Boy shown being blown in half was Tim "Griz" Martin, and had been one of the more senior members of Delta, who was initially planning on retiring from service once Operation Gothic Serpent had finished up. CSM Satterly's book "All Secure" goes into great detail about Detla's involvement in the Battle Of Mogadishu, and gives some even more grim details on Griz's death (he was driving a humvee right up until an RPG punched through the rear wheel-well and detonated, the flames were so intense it melted and then detonated his 1911 sidearm into his leg).
Yes but in real life he was not cut in half. He suffered a wound from a side and he did lived for several hours after he was hit. He was still cogent and talking to people despite being hit. But he lost a lot of blood when they finally got back to base and sadly died from his wounds (Source, Colonel Lee Van Arsedale and Colonel Danny McKnight from DVD commentary)
someone i know got struck by an explosive round and never made it. but in that position the best thing you can oi if you know they are about to die is morphine/painkillers and try make them as comfortable as possible in a horrid situation.
Although I think the bit with the delta operator being blown in half and then being briefly comforted adds well to the chaotic tone of the scene, I think this is purely for dramatic effect. I don't know his name, but I'm pretty sure he wasn't blown completely in half, but rather had a serious and fatal wound to his side and legs instead. If I remember, it was in the commentary and McKnight himself clarified the scene.
That's what's terrifying.... You could be the most skilled or the least skilled.... In one second if you are in the wrong spot at the wrong time.... None of that matters.
@@triggerhappym Actually, Delta Force is a Tier One unit, which means they're the best of the best. Compare it to other special forces units, like the SEALs or the Green Berets, other special forces units are just tier two which means they have a lower rank, while Delta has the highest.
You all know he didnt loose his legs, McKnight had commented that he was shot not hit by a RPG, the Somalia who shot him was killed by their own RPG, and that Somalia lost his legs and arms
I remember seeing the pictures of dead US soldiers being carried by the Somali crowd in Life magazine. The Delta guys are an arsenal of fantastic character actors that usually played heavies before this film.
He's not him. The man ta 1:28 does not wear glasses. You can see it as the glasses stick that you put on the ears are not seen. The guy at 0:20 also has darker skin.
You're right in two different ways. In the current Disney Canon, Stormtroopers are terrible shots, so they would be the Somalis. In Legends however, A.K.A. the timeline before Disney's purchase, Stormtroopers were elite and had amazing accuracy, so they'd be the U.S. Army Rangers.
I just noticed at 0:22 that a guy is just sitting on the back seat resting his elbow on the window frame and not shooting bad guys. Is he injured or what?
Rangers are airborne infantry that specialize in airfield seizure, security, and taking/defending large objectives (though they perform in CQC a lot nowadays) and Delta is more elite, dealing with HVT and counterterrorism
Deltas official name is CAG which has a main job of counter terrorism. CAG is like army special forces and probably runs the same MOSs. Ranger is light infantry. There is a ranger school we’re you get the tab (it says “ranger” on a guys shoulder) and ranger battalion which means your in a ranger battalion as a ranger. Rangers also use infantry MOSs. Rangers and CAG work together a lot. Usually with rangers as the security for CAG. Hence why people in ranger battalion are often taken into CAG selection. This is not a complete answer and is partly inaccurate sense nobody knows what CAG really does. It’s all secret.
They honestly don't make war movies like this anymore. This and SPR are really classics, all the new ones are meh.

He's not him. The man ta 1:28 does not wear glasses. You can see it as the glasses stick that you put on the ears are not seen. The guy at 0:20 also has darker skin.
@@alessandrorona6205 okay I carefully re-watched the parts a few times and I still say it's him. He's wearing the same shirt
LMAOAOOA
0:35
Tell my girls...they'll be OK.
1:22 he's a csgo silver player
hahaha a shitty aim
The Banana Man lololll
Yeah
1:37 RIP Richard Kowalewski
That's Casey Joyce, Kowalewski is the one who has a rocket fired at him in the truck.
@@kevinkibble8342 the guy who called medic on Joyce is Richard Kowalewski before he got hit by an RPG later
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😢 always get sad when I watch this scene
Was Joyce the same guy who took the metal plate off and said to Grimes that he wasn't planning to get shot in the back?
Yup
What is the drums song that plays through out the video?? PLEASE SOMEONE
It's crazy to be barely alive like that with half your body blown off.
Poor Soldier. I Pray you go to Peaceful Place......
Pain..
So this is what Stormtroopers look like without armor.
You're right in two different ways. In the current Disney Canon, Stormtroopers are terrible shots, so they would be the Somalis.
In Legends however, A.K.A.
the timeline before Disney's purchase, Stormtroopers were elite and had amazing accuracy, so they'd be the U.S. Army Rangers.
This and Korea and Vietnam. Either you fight the attrition war or you give everything you got. Fucking commanding branch.
This was vastly different than Korea and Vietnam.
The Battle of Mogadishu held a large difference in terms of those other wars
Do you know what you’re talking about?
Does anyone have this drum theme that plays throughout this scene? I couldn't find it on the official soundtrack on Spotify
What is the song during this scene with the drums??
What part of brazil is this?
Idiot.
paolo geymet 😂
All of it.
WHAT IS THE SONG WITH THE DRUMS?
I just noticed at 0:22 that a guy is just sitting on the back seat resting his elbow on the window frame and not shooting bad guys. Is he injured or what?
Maybe he got shot
@@alessandrod.6048 That's what I thought.
He got wounded multiple times.
His ai stopped working
@@L1ghtInTheDark lol no aimbot
respect from indonesia
What song is this
Soldier name? Please
Tim griz martin
@@yumekojabami3585In the movie, his name is MSG Christopher Wex, which he’s based off of MSG Timothy “Griz” Martin. He is played by Kim Coates
this is sad :(
When that guy lost his legs did he feel any pain or were his nervous numb?
Michael Brooks: not sure, I don’t think he would feel too much pain because there’s so much of it, don’t know.
Semper Fidelis Na he would feel a lot of pain with that kind of injury. Shock may be greater than the pain, but there would still be pain.
Not sure. I cant imagine trying to lift my legs just for none to be there
They got young men joined the army.
Movie tittle please
Black hawk down
Whats the difference between Delta and Rangers ?
Rangers are elite light infantry, while Delta is a top tier special operations unit.
Jeremiah Mendez Delta are the hard core tape my blood type to my boot type of guys
Rangers are airborne infantry that specialize in airfield seizure, security, and taking/defending large objectives (though they perform in CQC a lot nowadays) and Delta is more elite, dealing with HVT and counterterrorism
Deltas official name is CAG which has a main job of counter terrorism. CAG is like army special forces and probably runs the same MOSs. Ranger is light infantry. There is a ranger school we’re you get the tab (it says “ranger” on a guys shoulder) and ranger battalion which means your in a ranger battalion as a ranger. Rangers also use infantry MOSs. Rangers and CAG work together a lot. Usually with rangers as the security for CAG. Hence why people in ranger battalion are often taken into CAG selection.
This is not a complete answer and is partly inaccurate sense nobody knows what CAG really does. It’s all secret.
Tell my girls I'll be ok
What is that soldier name??
MSG Christopher Wex is his name. He is based off of MSG Timothy “Griz” Martin, and is played by Canadian actor, Kim Coates.
@@mariomastermunkin734thanks for this comment. I remember that he had the nick name grizz, glad there is more info on who he was based off of
رؤؤؤؤؤؤؤؤؤؤؤؤعه
Anyone know the name of the song/ what part of the soundtrack?
I would hate to be the guy who had the RPG hit him but not detonate
Im sure there was a guy in Afghanistan that got hit with an rpg in his leg but it didn't detonate he survived
Somalians: "just some aerial target practice."
Women cry for titamic men cry for black hawk down
Did they not have vests that stop ak rounds then? Didnt know that
The man who was shot in the back didn’t bring his back plate
Who is the soldier who've been killed by rpg?
Am I tripping or is the guy that got blown in half tig from soa?
It is indeed
0:38 I guess he needed a hand
it's the us army property because no one get left behind
Soundtrack?
Who was that guy? I couldn't recognize him.
