British Guy Reacts To The First Medal of Honor Ever Recorded - John Chapman
This was a heartbreaking video to watch but one that will stick with me for a long time due to the unbelievable bravery shown by Sgt John Chapman. I honestly never witnessed footage like that in my life. It is harrowing but something everyone should see to honour this great man. I give my full respect to anybody serving or that has served before.
I’m a former TACP JTAC that deployed to Afghanistan. Thank you for watching and promoting this video. Heroism cannot be understated by this man. These men are the true marvel super hero’s that actually live among us.
My friends brother was a medic in Iraq and won some sort of medal for protecting a squad of his teammates. It was him against multiple people in a situation like this. A true hero.
Unfortunately last year he took his own life. He had a wife and kids. Freedom is not free. People who criticize the armed forces don't understand. It's not that their mission is always just or right, it's the fact that they give up their lives so we can live ours. Thank you for your service.
I'm confused, I thought he kept fighting so they could get away. What took them so long to leave? (This is not a criticism, merely a question because it seems like they had plenty of time to leave.)
Job well done from an Old grunt.....
"The last full measure of devotion"
I salute you Master Sergeant John Chapman, a true hero !
9:21 he wasn't just fighting for his life. he was fighting for ours too.
RIP American hero, MSGT John Chapman. you will not be forgotten.
To be fair.... Not really fighting for our lives in that war but his intention when he signed up was for exactly that but let's not pretend that the Afghanistan War was fighting for our lives. I only have the utmost respect for soldiers but I'm not gonna pretend that the Afghanistan War was fighting for my life.
@@briansearle6868 i would have thought that it was obvious that i was speaking in a metaphorical sense.
As a U.S. Navy veteran myself, I appreciate your respect and recognition for our armed forces as well as your own family
Thank you for your service sir! 🇺🇸🙏🏻
Yup is a shame those SEALS were Blue Falcons.
Thanks mate, I appreciate the kind comment. I take my hat off to you and your fellow military professionals. It takes a special kind of person to put their life on the line for their country and I will forever be grateful to people like you who fight for our freedom. Thank you!!
What you witnessed is a thing called a "super soldier" it's never been caught on film 🎥 before! Rest easy J.C. we'll see 👀 you again in Valhalla!..from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 🤠
I'm Canadian and thank you to the USA Military for keeping Canada safe! I cried watching that video, this is why USA seals ( sorry for the spelling) are not to be messed with!! RIP god bless him and his family :(
Before the footage, you see the team was in the air in their helicopter went they were hit by rocket fire.
The SEAL team member Neil Roberts was blown from the helicopter.
They had no choice but to make an emergency landing on another summit.
Once they acquired another helicopter they went back for him. Roberts for a time was calling them on his radio telling them that he was alive.
You can read every Medal of Honor citation to be given online. More than half of the Medals of Honor given since 1941 have been given posthumously. Each citation demonstrates a complete disregard for the recipients own safety in order to save the lives of their own comrades. One of the common examples is willingly jumping on a grenade to save the people around you.
Thanks for the suggestion Logan, I will check that out for sure. I feel eternally grateful to people like this who put their lives in danger in order to protect the freedom of their countrymen. I know I am from the UK and that is how I feel about the UK military but I really appreciate the US military and what they do not just for the US but for the whole world.
@@mertsalih you should look up "Kyle Carpenter"....a lot of videos of him on youtube.
John Chapman wasn’t stuck on the summit against the enemy. The enemy was stuck on the summit with John Chapman. A god tier human. And my idol as an active duty member.
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your genuine sincerity and compassion. You’re a good person, it’s easy to see. God bless you.
Thank you for reacting to this. I am a former Army attack helicopter pilot with combat experience. No matter the branch of service, when we lose members of the military, we all feel it!
Thank you for reacting to this. I cry everytime I see this. He is truly a hero. RIP Chapman.
It is truly heartbreaking Brandy but also amazing to see his act of selflessness and heroism. I can tell I will be watching this video quite a few more times in private. Sgt John Chapman is a true hero in every sense of the word.
This video gets me every time too
It gets me every time, too, but I always watch when it comes up in my feed. I then take a moment to say a prayer for John Chapman and the countless other heroes who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom. Rest in peace, John Chapman 🙏
I was in an ordinance group in the Air Force...this one hurt.
Robert's ridge is name of battle. His team leader recived the medal of honor as well. Many videos on it but it will give you a broader picture of the event. Very brave men bleed daily for our freedom. Thanks for watching this video and giving him the respect.
Try to imagine the fear, anger and adrenaline that kept this man going. That's what a man with balls looks like.
All of that to recover a dead soldier! No man left behind. Unfortunately there was some investigations how this went down. Chapman's team leader ironically left him him behind even though they were there to pick up a dead soldier. Although he was one of the ones that came back to rescue Chapman later and got a medal of honor himself.
I’ve seen this many times and it never gets easier. I cry every time. Thanks for watching this.❤
Delta Force is a breed of its own! ❤️
Yes, but Chapman was not a part of Delta. He was AF attached to a SEAL team.
Yup Air Force Combat Controller
Thank you for reacting to this video. I recently found your channel and you seem like a really sincere person who cares. I'm so proud of our military in the U.S. . They are the best trained in the world and take what they do to keep all safe around the world so very seriously and with the utmost honour. Sacrifices are paid for us all. Freedom. And may God watch over them all.
Thanks Mimi, I appreciate your kind comment. That is one thing I have always known about Americans and have always respected, how much they are proud of their military and how patriotic they are. It is beautiful. Now that I have this channel and I am learning more about the USA it is a perfect opportunity for me to explore that more in depth and I plan to. Thanks again!!
@@mertsalih if you are interested in this sort of topic, you might want to look into the story of Roy Benavidez. american president ronald reagan said that if mr. benavidez's (true) story were a movie, he wouldn't believe it.

The book Alone At Dawn is just fantastic, gives more insight on the before and what others were doing during.
Thank you brother 🥺 it means a lot to warriors. Thing is ..things like this, happen everyday to soldiers. Or at least the actual heroes, the actual heroes never come home. 🥺 Hooah.
Rescue of Jessica Buchanon is also a good one
I know we Americans can come across as cocky, douchy, and disrespectful know it alls to some foreigners and as someone who has been stationed in other countries, I have seen the disrespect some foreigners show our military, most don't, but some do.
A lot of foreigners talk down about how bad Americans are and how fat and dumb we are and how we are so inferior to their country.
I am a proud American who served my country's military, we take an oath to defend freedom and democracy around the world. Our men and women are the first to answer the call and deploy into harms way, why? so you don't have to. Much respect to those who served, whether in the U.S. or foreign military. Thanks for reacting to this video
So true mate. For me I have always respected Americans. I feel some of the disrespect that Americans receive is just probably jealousy from other countries. USA is an amazing country with great diversity and history. It is also has the strongest military in the world too. I will always respect your great country!!
@@mertsalih oh I am positive it's a little jealously. Rightfully so. I get it. Americans have it all, we are so lucky and even a lot of Americans don't know how good they have it and sometimes take these luxuries for granted. We are blessed for sure.
You have to Respect men like Sgt. Chapman, not too many people would be able to make a sacrifice like this.
This was amazing and I haven’t seen the footage before. Footage like this makes the realities of war hit home. Also, if you’re reviewing MOH recipients, you must watch this video of MSG Roy P Benavidez. This guy is a real life Rambo/GI Joe. ua-cam.com/video/0B2w0abQazg/v-deo.html&feature=share
I can say, of all the MOH citations I’ve read and videos I’ve watched, this one truly blew me away. I served in the Army myself and this man, along with Sgt Audie Murphy, are widely regarded as two of the greatest to ever serve.
True courage! Courage doesn't mean they are fearless. It means they act and do what they have to even in the face of their fear. RIP warrior!!
Bro you did this video and John Chapman justice. Thank you
AMAZING COURAGE !!!!
Not only will the US military stand between danger and civilians, risk their life to rescue Americans but US heroes will risk their life to recover a fallen brother/sister.
Not being arrogant just proud🇺🇸
So glad you got to this amazing vid of a true hero
Also impressed with your sincerity and respect. Can’t wait to tune into more
Thanks Kevin. This was a really unbelievable video. I have never seen such footage before. I have nothing but respect for military professionals. They put their lives on the line for their country and their fellow countrymen. The bravery and mentality needed to do that is something that should always be respected.
Sgt.Chapman was an absolute badass
a true hero, bless our veterans and serving military. two groups I will always support animals and veterans!
hell yeah love this thank you and much love from Wv USA
Thank you for your reaction and kind words.
Roy Benavedez metal of honor story. Check that one out
Having a JTAC on the field is game changer. They will stay up for days while you can sleep for a few hours
I’d like to recommend you watch the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery. It is truly an amazing thing,
The Medsl Of Honor is no joke. Most recipients recieve it posthumously.
Following this, the US Air Force Special Warfare Training Complex at Lackland Air Force Base was renamed in his honor to exemplify to all future SPECWAR personnel what they should strive to be, heroes.
Thanks for watching this video. When I joined the US Marines being like Chapman is what we all hope we can be. He is a true warrior and one day I will drink a horn with him in Valhalla. To all my warrior brothers and sisters out there Semper Fi. NEVER FORGOTTEN USMC
Semper Fidelis
This gonna make a great movie, I can't wait
There is a special place in Valhalla. Rest in peace brother. You have earned it. Oorah
I dont know how he made it up that hill with balls that big
My late husband was retired military and my only son is active duty navy
React to the Jessica Buchanan seal team rescue it's pretty awesome 👍
Because no man is left behind!
Awesome reaction, the video is so heart breaking and motivational.
This video was extremely interesting and I had never seen this footage before. Please keep making videos !
You should check out the video of the tomb of the untold soldier.

definitely subscribed! look forward to videos to come
Enjoying your Channel
Hello from Grand Canyon State
Thank you very much!!
this is the man I wish I could be
23 comrades got to go home to their families because of Mr Chapman that day. He sacrificed the rest of his time with his family so they could live on with theirs. An absolute true hero. Rest easy sir.

Boatlift of 9/11 Amazing Story...After NY terrorist attack.
Gives you Faith in Mankind...
National Anthem like you Never Heard before....is the story behind our Anthem...Many Americans do not know this..Including me I hate to say,
I get the words now, it means so much more when I hear it, sing it..
1,000 agree, that is worth the watch as well! As an American alive during 911 I was unaware of this event until I watched the video.
Thank you very much for the suggestions, I will definitely check them out and make a reaction to them soon.
I'm a U.S. Army combat veteran of the first Gulf War, and I know in my heart I couldn't have done what John Chapman did. He was a very special breed.
Where do heroic people like MSgt Chapman come from? I don't know, but I praise God for them, and, when it's my time, look forward to talking with them about it.
We love our cousins across the pond (and those down under; the Canadians -- not so much).
🙂
Thanks mate. I have huge respect for Americans and the American military. Can't wait to find out more about it on here.
dont be sleepin on our neighbors above us they are just as fierce and loyal and badass as anyone living or walking right now . if its the government then yah most all governing bodies suck cant blame the regular folks for the dumb decisions of their government.
@@DarkKatzy013 - They virtue signal too much. Worse, they have an inferiority complex that leads to a bizarre superiority complex. (Not all of them, but as a general rule.)
@@SilvanaDilwhat Canadians have you met? Lol
You will never see the like of sgt Chapman
I want to make it clear the SEALs didn’t “abandon” him Slabinski the TL also received the medal for his actions on takur ghar describes learning he was still alive and tried to fight his way back up but the mountain was too steep to go up. He did what he could to make it up once he found out but they landed basically on a Al Queda training cell camp and there was no freedom of movement on our side since you can literally see us attempt to land a helo in the same landing zone one got damaged and the seal team got lit up when they landed
We have to be related....
@@patriciaotoole6508 maybe we are😂
And the SEALs devoted a great amount of energy denying that Chapman was alive when they retreated and in resisting the effort to award the MOH to Chapman to the point of claiming that he disobeyed the team leader's orders.
@@chrisbolliger5717 that was higher command, Slabinski and his team never did such a thing from my knowledge but you are correct not sure where that started but I’m almost positive the operators on the team didn’t
Nice video. You should react to the NFL stadiums and some nba
Ok will do mate. I will be making some NBA reactions videos soon. Do you have any other suggestions for good NBA videos?
You're welcome as the US military protects the world
There is a movie in the making right now.
For all that is holy I pray to my lord and savior Jesus Christ that the movie is NOT a woke movie. That Sgt Chapman and all others who have served are portrayed with respect and honor. God Bless all those that day. And I do pray that even the enemy and their families receive peace as well.
Amen.
Much respect to John Chapman but that C-130 could have cleared that mountaintop with no American casually.
I'll tell how Chapman revived to fight more. God was there and told him HE wasn't done yet. There was more work to do. I'll let you rest soon.
Not to get political but I had planned to go into the military until Biden got elected
Check out the story of the man that wouldn't die ray neveditz. Makes Rambo look like a girl
Ill only make this one comment. The video title says "Brit reacts" but you sound like a Scot?
#Airmen do it better.
You’re a good man, dude
