Lots of people mistakenly belive Fortunate Son is a song. it is really just the noise produced by an American attack helicopter's blades during flight.
I have a kinda similar story. I was fighting a world boss on ESO solo. We've been duking it out for a while. All of the sudden, in the distance, I start hearing Flight of the Valkyries. Then another player comes flying over the edge on his mount and explosions of light begin to happen. It was absolutely glorious. Never seen anything like it again
@@popovski4385 Ye. Sometimes it's cancer, but a lot of times it is people giving advice to others and just helping out, without even being in a group. And often it's role playing. At least that's the majority of my interactions with randoms over VOIP. But I'm on PS4 so idk about other places. I had a similar interaction with another player with a boss, except I died before he could save me. 😢 Damn K'Tora.
@@EL_Mook you might have just convinced me to give ESO a try. VOIP in an mmorpg sounds absolutely amazing but also aids at the same time. Im down for both
Fortunate son starts playing. Step 1: look for fire, if fire avoid area where fire is step 2: if no fire check for enemy aircraft, if there is enemy aircraft then find some cover Step 3: die listening to freedom ring
Battlefield Vietnam introduced vehicles playing music one of my favorites was driving around the map for the last couple tickets of players hiding playing **Nowhere to run to baby**
I remember when Battlefield Vietnam released on PC that you could play music on the in-game radios like CCR and Jefferson Airplane, and other artists of the era. I always played Engineer and while I was throwing myself out onto a bridge from my Jeep to defuse landmines so we could cross, a bunch of enemy infantry started to come out of the brush and open fire and I scrambled back to the other side of the bridge after removing the mines and then two Patton tanks and a Cobra Gunship came swooping in and someone was playing "Somebody to Love" as they came in and lay waste to the opposition That was a pretty cool moment, wish I had gotten it on video back in 2004
It would be awesome to watch this animated. Like the plane kills the base turns to look at your small squad and you guys look out and the pilot waves then continues its spree
My best such moment happened whilst playing with a buddy years and years ago DCX, a mod for Battlefield 1942. We were on El-Alamein, holding off the Iraqis, just barely at the Eastern Outpost. We could see an entire T-72 collumn coming over the pass in the west and we were like, brother, this is it. The tanks came straight at us, supported by a lot of infantry, even a pair of IFVs, and just as we were running out of ammo, the bot flown Specter Gunship flew overhead like an avenging angel, creampying the entire formation, we were both hollering like animals. Once in a lfietime gaming moment.
Honestly, the only thing scarier than hearing "Fortunate Son" playing in the sky in the distance is hearing "Ride of the Valkyries" playing from the distant sky. 😂
Everybody gangsta till: The trees start speaking Vietnamese The gas starts speaking russian The snow replies in Finnish The sky starts singing fortunate son
@@manender1020 during ww1 the Germans launched a gas attack on a russian position. When they moved in the gas was still there, but so were the Russians.
I would've laughed my ass off if it just got louder until you saw it pass through the window and heard it slowly get quiter until you look out to see that it was gone
I was playing as the PLA in Squad the other day and me and some mates were building a mortar FOB, as one does. About 30 seconds after we popped our first shot, the world started exploding from mortar fire and we heard Fortunate Son in the distance as a helicopter full of Marines landed to murder the fuck out of us.

Keep seeing the same question lately so for clarification:
The game is called " *_Insurgency: Sandstorm_* "
Damn I thought it was the new battlebit update
Is this halo reach
Is this fortnite?
@@GhoSTed32 no it’s halo
Do people not read the description or something?
I can only imagine the terror of thinking you're safe then just all of a sudden hearing fortunate son playing.
That would be horrifying
Probably just as terrifying as the burp from hell.
Its either Fortunate Son or Ride of the Valkyries
And a fekn helicopter raining missiles on you😂😂😂
If you're an American it might be good could be reinforcements
I appreciate the echo of the song as you entered the building.
Thanks, good to know that wasn't wasted effort
@@Shark_Enjoyerit rly wasnt
Do you heard the echo of democratie when he enter the building ?
nah you nailed it with that one@@Shark_Enjoyer
@@Shark_Enjoyerjust wanna add to the comments, these little details is what’s gonna make you explode my guy! Great work
You got "When the trees start speaking Vietnamese"
But can't forget "When the skies start singing fortunate son"
Or the Russian version:
“When the snow starts speaking Finnish…”
@@blademaster2390HA! Good one. Is that a reference to that one Finnish sniper nicknamed “White Death”?
@@ofmasterOof More than just him. The Finnish fought hard, I doubt the Russians will try that one again.
@@impishlyit9780yeah Russia got ptsd from the Finnish
You also have, “When the water starts speaking Korean” when RoK marines were sent to flush out Vietcong tunnels
HEARING IT FROM THE OTHER END IS ACTUALLY SCARY!
Taste of your medicine… and napalm also…
An attack helicopter blaring an anti-war song means that fight is gonna be over QUICK.
@@kirbyis4ever *HELLO BOYS! I'M BAAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCCKKKKK!!!*
The reverb indicates that someone attached a stereo playing the song to the heli and that makes it even scarier lol
That is what they actually did in Vietnam, although they mostly played traditional Vietnamese funeral music.
@@rayanderson5797 DUDE HOLY SHIT ;W;

This is what happens when we fund our psyops department
@@josephtheoracle3344 So is public education. Funding your psyops department does not contain the actions of your government. Fun, yes. Morally restricted or appropriate? Depends on funding your media department.
Nothing like seeing a heavily armed combat chopper in a large-scale shooter game, to make you go: "Whelp, here comes my insurance policy check!"
On the other side: "Fuck yeah, get some, say hello to McDonald-fucking-Douglas!"
Insurgency isn't a large scale shooter game, it's 14 v 14 at the top end. Also that helicopter is AI piloted.
@@christopherbelanger6612 "You completely missed the point of the assignment." 🤣
Lots of people mistakenly belive Fortunate Son is a song. it is really just the noise produced by an American attack helicopter's blades during flight.
Fun fact. Fortunate son is an anti-war song specifically targeting the draft.
But it's such a good song for wars!
Embracing the enemy’s insult is one of America’s most exceptional trait.
@@dannyzero692 Also, just showing up and improvising
And also happened to be a fan favorite of the soldiers.
Fun fact. A lot of anti-war songs end up as a hit among the soldiers. Like this one, and Hero of War by Rise Against. :D
"Hehe, got some nice kills"
"Wait, whats that sound? WAIT WHA-"
"Objective: Survive"
you know the enemy be praying
"Stop, hey, whats that sound"?
This reminds me of Lone Wolf from Halo: Reach.
'Incoming freedom' Well that sounds right😂😂😂
“Freedon is ready for deployment”
@@Rogueocto i love freedon

That is pretty cool
The echo effect on the music once you entered the building was top notch, beautiful touch
The transition from outside to inside was hella smooth. Couldn't tell if the pilot was blasting that on speaker or not.
Those helis are bots.
Great example of "Why do I hear boss music ?" lol. This video needs to be a lot longer
That: “Incoming Freedom” priceless😂
If I ever play a real war sim I’m playing that every time I’m in a chopper or ride of the valkyries
MGS:V got me to really enjoy blasting Take on Me as I commit various war crimes.
Sounds like the average pilot on Squad
Many years ago in Battlefield Vietnam this was every afternoon haha.
@@h2olemon547I love that game.
It either of these two, or something from Sabatons list of absoulute bangers. Perhaps 'winged hussars' or 'screaming eagle'.
I love the moment where you realize something is wrong, perfect.
Ye it is perfect
This and Ride of the Valkyries is the most frighting sound on the battle field.
Fortunate son starts playing.
Step 1: look for fire, if fire avoid area where fire is
step 2: if no fire check for enemy aircraft, if there is enemy aircraft then find some cover
Step 3: die listening to freedom ring
If there's no aircraft visible. Run the Raptor is watching you.
step 4: stay put for a whole day because might be a reaper drone in the area....
@@willhornsby206I could spot a raptor from the other side of the star system with its piss yellow canopy
that reverb makes it scary
the way the *Incoming Freedom* text stays as he zooms out makes it seem like an actual object the heli has connected to it.
This gave me a chuckle, well done
POV: You're a Wagner merc at Conoco Fields.
The head turn towards the chopper is perfect
The epitome of “why do I hear boss music?”
They heard there was oil there.😂
Are we talking about oil?
Nah I heard oil,DAT SHIT MINE
@@haloreachboss5813 THAT SHIT IS MINE
@@haloreachboss5813 “DAT SHIT MINE!”🤣
Battlefield Vietnam introduced vehicles playing music one of my favorites was driving around the map for the last couple tickets of players hiding playing **Nowhere to run to baby**
I had that songlist practically memorized, and had a blast playing that game.
The tiny *INCOMING FREEDOM* when it zooms back out is pure perfection.
The world needed a mod that plays fortunate son whenever an American helicopter nears you
RIP Insurgency Sandstorm... Never forgotten by the community
that would be one hell of a psychological attack to play that everytime something is about to strike
I remember when Battlefield Vietnam released on PC that you could play music on the in-game radios like CCR and Jefferson Airplane, and other artists of the era.

Hot-mic-ing in that game is legendary
It would be awesome to watch this animated. Like the plane kills the base turns to look at your small squad and you guys look out and the pilot waves then continues its spree
Famous last words: “I hear Fortunate son”
He could smell the “freedom” that was about to be dispensed at him
Cant wait for this to blow up
Same for the hellfire missles bro.
If you listen closely you can hear the pilot going "Get some! Get some! Get some!".
My doctor: the viper isnt real it cant hurt you
The viper:
Not a Viper. LMAO. That's most definitely an Apache Longbow. Note the radar dish on top of the rotors.
@@t3hSn0wm4n it should yell "I am a king of hellfires" before blowin' up the whole home with your squad inside.

My dad said this was how it was in Vietnam but you knew they were coming to take you out of hell and back to base.

Everyone gangsta till the sky plays fortune son
The panic is so visible in the movements🤣🤣
Helicopter: Yo, you got any oil? Thanks.
no joke but the music from helicopters was a real thing in Battlefield: Vietnam... I miss this game :)
Everybody gangsta till:
The trees start speaking Vietnamese
The gas starts speaking russian
The snow replies in Finnish
The sky starts singing fortunate son
I'm very curious why would gasoline speak Russian
@@manender1020 during ww1 the Germans launched a gas attack on a russian position. When they moved in the gas was still there, but so were the Russians.
@@S_O_U_P ah the Osowiec battle one
Okay then
It sounded like it was actually coming from my surroundings 10/10
I would've laughed my ass off if it just got louder until you saw it pass through the window and heard it slowly get quiter until you look out to see that it was gone
Puny peasantry, feel the night of 5 billions dollars in R&D!
The modern equivalent to fortunate son playing from the helicopters during war would just be Helikopter by Fazlija
Imagine our troops going to war actually playing this song in every battle as loud as humanly possible
i find it funny when you turned around buddy was already gettin gone
This is funny. I like this. Good job!
I love how "INCOMING FREEDOM" zooms in & out with the chopper!
unlimited tax dollars acquired
I absolutely love this video
700th sub! 😄 Great video, gave me a good laugh
When you hear someone blasting loud af 60s Rock music on the battlefield, you know it's time to run.
The trees might speak Vietnamese but THE SKY SINGS FORTUNATE SON
INCOMING FREEDOM is too damn funny man🤣🤣
If you saw it, you weren't the target
I was playing as the PLA in Squad the other day and me and some mates were building a mortar FOB, as one does. About 30 seconds after we popped our first shot, the world started exploding from mortar fire and we heard Fortunate Son in the distance as a helicopter full of Marines landed to murder the fuck out of us.
The apache is the single most terrifying and motivating thing ever in sandstorm
the RAW fear in that sprint
I love Insurgency Sandstorm
As an American I can confirm this is how we show our enemies freedom
The trees speak the sky sings.
*"You have been freed from your mortal body."*
-Helicopter
The flashbacks have started again
“Be advised. Friendly Freedom inbound to you AO.”
When youre in DMZ and the Command Helo pulls a 180 in your direction.
It was at this moment that he knew, he had to run.
Bad Company Vietnam was so amazing for this type of stuff right here. Too bad hardly anyone played it.
POV: Your a Vietnamese soilder hiding in a tree, you hear Fortunate Son start playing, look up and see INCOMING FREEDOM
Man they liberated the hell out of that place.
Omg I was drinking water and I was almost to spit it all from laughter.
The way he looks around wondering "Where is that coming from?" before scurrying about like an ant is what gets me.
I love that fortunate son is so ironically used in war context.
The echo got me. 😂
Incoming Freedom!!! LMFAO This is the video I didnt know I needed lol
Spielberg quality, keep it up 💯
That's 70mm of pure freedom comming down there
on the enemy’s screen: *a heath bar shows up top they’re screen*
"Why do i hear boss music"
Bro this is more terrifying than hearing ride of the Valkaries
Some one delivered a large helping of freedom
thats how it be doe
Imagine being an insurgent fighting against the Americans and hearing that music coming out of nowhere before being blasted to smithereens by an A-10
*incoming freedom* and he just books it indoors
EPICCCC that's why i love it!!
lmao that editing was great
"Yeah, you better run!"
“Oh these? They aren’t rocket pods, they’re speakers for blasting fortunate son.”
Legend has it they didn’t even know who John Fogerty even fuckin’ is
Oil: *exists in another country*
America within 0.000002782 nanoseconds after hearing a rumor about it:
This video was amazing! 🤣
Here comes a ton of freedom per second
The instinctual fear 😂
I like the realization of the song like "Huh? What is that music.. wait.. OH GOD JERRY GET INSIDE! THEY'RE COMING!"
I play this game and trust me when you’re on the insurgence team and here’s that incoming and you’re outside you shit yourself
