You can't go wrong with The Fat Electrician. I've watched every reaction to his videos, I can't get enough. đđ
He just did the story of Roy Benavidez which was awesome.
One of the best story tellers I have ever encountered...his brand of humor is right up my alley.
"The Most Gangster Politician of All Time", is my favorite Fat Electrician video. I highly recommend it!
Cassius Clay yes one of the best ones
It's in my top 5 along with Reckless the war horse , America's anti hero Jake Mcnasty, the Eager Beavers and the Barbary wars
Him and the whole â The most gangster â thing is so fucking corny. I like his videos but I wish he wouldnât use gangster as a positive description. God itâs so lame calling these great men âgangster â. I mean these guys would wanna slap his chubby ass for calling them that đ
His video on The Last Warchief is also great.
Cassius Clay is definitely fat electrician best video hands down!!!
The Fat Electrician is hands down one of THE best story tellers around. One of my top 5 favorite channels.
As a former Navy Seabee, PLEASE react to "The Great Seabee Train Robbery." You'll enjoy it.
My dad is a former Seabee CPO served 20 years in the 60s & 70s I was born on a Navy base I got to live in some cool places in my youth
@@user-nr5ux7gr2g Awesome. Seabees Can Do!
Idk if anyone has ever told you this. But yall are wild and i love it lol
My gâpa was a Seabee. He told me how he helped build Tern Island on the French Frigate Shoals.
My granddad was in the first Seabee battalion formed, march of 42. My uncle was a Seabee in Korea at Inchon. He may have participated in the train Robbery but there is no way to confirm. Both passed in the 70's. I worked with the Seabees on occasion but I was a Greenside Corpsman with Marines. This is one of my favorite videos of TFE
I joined the Marine Corps 2 weeks before my 18th birthday in November 1976. Upon arrival at Parris Island in early January 1977, among the many things we learned were the exploits of those who came before us. Chesty Puller, recipient of 5 Navy Crosses, John Basilone, recipient of the Medal of Honor and the Navy Cross, Carlos Hathcock, the Marine Corps deadliest sniper, Smedley Butler, the other 2 time Medal of Honor recipient and of course Dan Daly.
One doesn't "win" the Medal of Honor, you are nominated and awarded it.
I'm just waiting for Chesty to get a Fat Electrician Video.... Chesty has some of the greatest quotes in history if you ask me.. "All right, they're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us...they can't get away this time."
@Eliath1984 a little over 10 years ago, I was working in a Walmart in Ashland, Kentucky. Once a week, a little old guy came through, and I noticed he was wearing a Korean War ball cap. I asked him what branch, and he told me Marine Corps. He went on to tell me he was at the Chosin Reservoir with Chesty.
Samuel Whitmore in the revolutionary war is a BEAST!
This is one of if not the best storytellers on youtube. Started a big rabbit hole. Nick (thefatelectrician) used to be an army medic i believe. I will sub to you in the hopes you react to more đ
about time you check out Fat Electrician! You have many more you should watch. Iran Navy & America's Airborne Anti-hero - Jake "McNasty" ARE WELL WORTH THE WATCH
@@Reblwitoutacause the Eager Beavers, the one legged spy, Sergeant Reckless, war daddy,the Barbary wars even his most recent one on Roy benavidez, yeah you can't go wrong with a FTE video
@@user-nr5ux7gr2g agreed
Nic is a great story teller. Wish I'd had a history teacher a tenth as good as him. Nic is a vet, he was 68W (combat medic).
As a medically retired Marine (93-06) ....I had SgtMaj. Daly"s accomplisments drilled in my head. One tour in Somalia & two in Iraq but never as badass as him. Semper Fi SgtMaj.
He has a very entertaining site. I haven't found one that was boring. You might want to work one in occasionally to react to. His "When the US navy sunk half of the Iranian navy in 8 hours" or The one explaining that the US navy was built originally to destroy the Barbary Pirates or don't mess with Americas boats. Very good reaction to this one. Thanks.
His one on Roy Benavidez, is worth a watch. 6 hours in Hell. Roy went on a mission to save his fellow soldiers 12 friendly vs 1,000 enemies armed only with a combat knife and a med pack.
Iâve watched that one and it was great.
18 Year Old's have been doing things like this since 1776 , I was 18 & in Vietnam & there are plenty of True stories of the lone Grunt out numbered 10 fold defeating the Enemy
I was 20 when I got to Vietnam .. old guy? :)
@@eTraxx In my Unit most of us were between 17 & 20, We had 3 17 yr olds and maybe 15 to 18 over 20 yr Olds The Oldest was the First Shirt 33 Welcome home
The current selective service system will take each year until the pool for that year is completely exhausted before moving to the next. The order is supposed to be 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 19, 18. That makes it highly unlikely anyone under 20 would ever be drafted again (hopefully).
@@Smokeater4444 the average age of the crew on a aircraft carrier is 19
You DON'T win the Medal of Honer. You RECEIVE it.
Oh yeah, you have to do more of Nick's videos, all are like this, a touch of humor with a lot of cool history.
This guy is, imho, the best story teller on CZcams
Old age and treachery the 77th is a great video of his as well. All of his videos are amazing everyone of them are worth a watch.
Fat Electrician has an awesome channel. Great delivery, funny and educational
Important point. You don't win the Medal of Honor. You are awarded it. You earn it.
Please do more!
The âhow the US destroyed half of Irans navyâ is a good one. Also âworld war treeâ, âVirginia hallâ, etc.
heâs such a great story teller
The history teacher I wished everyone would have in school
His most recent one is about Roy Benevedez and it is great
He has one about Lafayette "war daddy " Poole which is the guy Brad Pitt was based on in the movie Fury. Essentially one of the greatest tank commanders ever.
You don't win the Congressional Medal of Honor like a baseball game. You receive or are awarded the medal - period!. Actually, about seven servicemen received the CMOH twice, like Thomas Custer, the infamous Colonel Custer's brother!
I remember my DI told us. Every Marine no matter what generation within their enlistment will be in combat period. The law of averages for Marines is you got 4 years in your enlistment. At some point during thata enlistment there will be a dust up, or war. SO you will be involved.
Marine legend. He's one of the people that create the aura that surrounds Marines. He's one of the ones that set the bar so high that men will die attempting t9 reach the same level.
Smedley Butler is also a gangster. He stopped a coup. He wrote the book "War is a Racket" that's one of the most informative books about war to this day
The Fat Electrician is a good historian and a great story teller. You can't go wrong reviewing a Fat Electrician video.
Except his math skills and fact checking aren't the best. Daly joined the Marines at 26, not 16, and was 28 in Peking (1873-1899). And the Peking story is a little off, although the real story may be even more impressive.
There have been 19 double recipients of the Medal of Honor. Daly was one of only two Marines to receive it twice for different acts of Valor. Six more received both the Army and Navy Medals of Honor for the same action.
I taught Marine Corps history to recruits and permanent personnel at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego, California from 1967 to 1970. Dan Daly was just one of many Marine Corps hero's I covered during that time.

So very happy that you 2 discovered the Fat Electrician, one of the best history CZcamsrs out there!
Great reaction. Love The Fat Electrician and all his videos. He gives life to history. Wish we could package his style of teaching about history and use it in our classrooms, students would learn so much more. No matter how many times I watch his videos he can still hold my rapt attention. His "The Most Gangster Politician of all time" about Cassius Marcellous Clay is my all-time favorite.
You don't "WIN" the medal of honor! It is AWARDED!
Nick doesn't just tell a story. He gets invested in it, and it shows. Always, always, always let TFE's videos run til the very end. There are often little nuggets of humor or actual clips of the person he talked about. All except one. And it was the appropriate way to end.
Welcome to the fantastic rabbit hole that is TFE. Nick just brings such a unique amazing story telling that all of us would have enjoyed history more if our teachers were like this.
TFE is one of the best storytellers on YT and history teachers have told him students LOVE his videos.
He earned it three times but politicians refused him that honor.
Kevin Costner said on a recent podcast that he was a young teen when his 17 year old brother enlisted in the Marines. Once he turned 18, he was sent to Vietnam. He made a conscious decision to not be a little shit, because he knew their parents had enough to worry about.
Casius Klay the most gangster politician, the time the US destroyed half of Iran's military. War daddy the best tank commander, ching lee the greatest battle ship commander. are all top tier videos from the fat electrician and I recommend you continue to react to his videos as they're all great. Love the channel and you both are great.
I love Nick, aka the fat electrician. He always does a great job. As A Marine, Sgt Maj Daly is a legend, we are taught about all the past greats in boot camp. The boxer rebellion was even more insane than he covered, they didnât leave him there alone to guard the refugees, there were multiple other machine gun teams. Every single other team got knocked out through the night long battle, either the gun broken, or the teams killed/wounded so badly they could no longer fight, and he was left as the surviving machine gun and guy capable of fighting, and finished the fight by himself. Also the boxers didnât only have a couple guns, they had a lot of them, but they old/obselete ones, from muskets to semi modern at the time. Single shot, black powder cartridges. After that first night, and the 1200 other marines got there, they held that building against 50,000 rebels, 1200 marines did, they were down to heavy hand to hand fighting and bayonets, but they repelled the rebels and got all the civilians out. Oh yeah, that first night, it wasnât 200 rebels attacking. The numbers are unknown for that, but Daly âdefeatingâ 200, yeah thatâs how many were dead infront of and around his position, so they were hit by hundreds, probably just a thousand that first night and under a platoon of Marines stopped them dead in their tracks.
I watch your Tom reactions I hope you decide to make Nic a mainstay on the channel. He is one of the best storytellers in the world.
Glad ya found this guy. Good story teller, informative and hilarious in his presentation. Good one to go to during Christmas is the Egg Nog rebellion at West Point.
Oh boy, you found TFE! so many GREAT stories. The most gangster politician, Cassius Marcellus, Clay and old 666 are my favorites.
So happy you guys have found the fat electrician, his story telling and the unique historical events he shares are amazing. As an Australian everyone of these is new to me. The cheese bunker story is mind blowing as is the story of Cassius Clay.
In SOI in 1991, i noticed all the troop handlers were veterans of Grenada and Panama...they spoke highly of Smedley Butler and his war is a racket ideology, they told us flatout spreading democracy was invading countries for their resources for American businessesđź
"I heard he dragged a dead horse out of a river and carried it and the machine gun back" đ
The only mistake he makes in this video is that private Daly enlisted at 26 years old. Not 16. 1899-1873=26.
This guy does do a real good job narrating stories! Iâll have to check Him out!
I wonder if he does the Roy Benavides story? Damn that one is just simply beyond belief!
He just released that one yesterday.
czcams.com/video/jJeIeW9WDtA/video.htmlsi=FcPloXMP4H2BGmPM
Just came out yesterday. You can see the emotion in his eyes. Might make you cry.
John Kelly, another Marine, got the MOH 2x, but it was 1x Army MOH and 1x Navy MOH for a single action in WW1.
There are 19 people who have been awarded the MOH 2x, and John Kelly was the last one.
All of Nick's videos are great đ€đ€
By the way that ale was overturned, John Chapman received 2 medals of honor in Afghanistan in 2002
When Someone becomes a marine from what I hear. (I am not a Marine) they are trained with a whole new mindset. A marine is there for his brother marine to fight next to him and keep each other alive. That is their duty to each other and they will die doing it!!
i subscribed. you two need to watch more of his vids hes got some bangers that are funny and surprised me. watch threw his adds and make sure to fully watch the vid cause he loves to put stuff at the end most of the time.
Every single one of The Fat Electrician's videos are bangers. Great choice!
Electrician got the math wrong. Dan Daly was 26 when he enlisted, NOT 16. He was 27 during the Boxer Rebellion.
The Fat Electrician should have his own show on the History or Military Channel, any and All his content is a must watch!
From what I understand, he was actually put up for it twice during WWI. If he had received it both of those times, he would have had 4.
FYI. Always watch to the end he sometimes has funny after quotes. And I just realized the Dan Daly was in the Marine Corp when it became its own separate branch in 1914
Dan Daly, Smedley Butler, John Basilone, and Chesty Puller are the Gods of the Corps and are the prime example of why you donât F**k with Marines
For context a Colt 1911 had the ammo capacity of 8 rounds I believe at the time. Possibly 9 rounds. So, Dan Daly took 14 men prisoner with a gun that was held probably 8 rounds or less.
Nick, The Fat Electrician's channel is great. Grab anything and they'll all be this entertaining and informative.
I actually learned about Dan Daly in Bootcamp
One of my favorite videos by the Chubby Electron Guy is the story of ''Jake 'McNasty' McNiece and the Filthy 13''! You should definitely scope it out!
SGM Daly was born in 1873, joined the Marines in 1899, he was about 26, not 16.
Outstanding; two of my favorite reactors watching my favorite channel. Further suggestions for The Fat Electrician would be, Jake McNasty, The Old Bastards, The Limping Lady, The Most Gangster Politician and Potential. If I would have had Nick as a history teacher in high school I wouldn't have been able to wait for that class. I FORGOT; War Daddy the true story behind the movie Fury.
Thanks!
Thank you!
Y'all should DEFINITELY check out all of his videos. Sooooo much to learn.
Honestly all his videos are great operation praying mantis, the 77th ID, old 666, Ching Lee, roy benavidez, and war daddy are just a few I can think of off the top of my head that are great storyâs being told by a great story teller
Be sure to watch until the very end. Many of his videos have a little extra fun after his merchandise pitch that many people wrongly believe is the end.
Welcome to The World's Finest US Marines.
Semper Fi
Itâs sad that politicians always get in the away of what soldiers/veterans truly deserve.
Another good one is his video about the "old bastards"
I agree with below. "The most gangster politician." All his videos are great. Keep em goin. You also get another piece of the civil war with that video.
The fat electrician is absolutely wonderful Nick tells great stories anyone you pick is great
My great grandfather was with the rough riders
A small correct on the original video. Daley was 25 when he enlisted, not 16.
Love love love the fat electrician haha, great reaction yall, love the content
I am so glad you two are going down The Fat Electrician rabbit hole! He is an amazing storyteller. He talks fast that you are enthralled, but.not so fast that you don't get any information. He is funny, especially when his wife is involved with the ad reads. Here are some other favorites of mine:
Proportional
Cassius Clay
Potential
Underground Cheese Bunkers
Chick Fil A
Mailcat
USS No Go
The 78 year old Revolutionary War hero....
Many more.
Old 666
America's War Horse Sgt Reckless is my favorite video from The Fat Electrician.
The Fat Electrician is awesome. Do more, do more, do more...
These are real American heroes. They donât make them like that anymore. Thatâs for sure. 11:06
Great reaction to The Fat Electrician's awesome educational material!
Nic/The Fat Electrician has no bad videos, and his videos are just like that: rapid fire, interesting, and no dull in between. For God's sake, he did a rant about his wife buying the wrong kind of toilet paper and it was a hilarious and informative history lesson about toilet paper and a lot of associated things. Seriously, he made toilet paper interesting as hell!
He also doesn't mind at all when people react to his videos and he'll often leave comments to them. He is the history teacher we all wish we had had in school. Plus, his war stories are all about the kinds of things we never learned, or even heard of, before. And everyone who watches your reactions to this legendary YT storyteller will tell you one or more that you HAVE to watch, and it won't all be the same one. I've already told you about the toilet paper video, but I'll also recommend The Eager Beavers.
Seriously, even if you don't react (but you should), just go watch and be amazed!
Love the fat electrician. You started it, now you gotta give us more!!!!! I really enjoy the barbary warsâ€â€â€â€
I definitely recommend the Jake mcnasty and war daddy videos
After WWI France changed the name of Belleau Wood to The Forest of the US Marine Corps, Belleau Wood.
Nic's math is off. Born in 1873 and inlisted in 1899, Daly was 26 when he inlisted and 28 in China.
As Canadians, hv the 2 of u hear the Sabaton song "The Ghost in the Trenches?"
He's what old school Marines call a "China Marine".
This is a rabbit hole well worth going down. The Fat Electrician does his homework for his videos. Pick any of his videos and you will get more factual information than you would on the History channel. Great reaction. I can not wait for more from you guys with The Fast Electrician.
I found his channel with the video "America Obliterates Half of Iran's Navy" and since then I've been working my way through all of his videos. All of them are great but I always enjoy watching that video first video I saw and reactions to it, so check that one out when you get the chance.
Just a little correction,you don't " win " the medal of honor you earn it
and that number is LESS than what was actually there. 200 is the recorded death count, not including any who got away, or crawled away to die later.
Check out Chesty Puller another bad ass US Marine. He was General Patton's cousin too. Oh ya, by the way. Actor George C Scott who played General Patton. In Patton (1970) was also a US Marine. Ironic, Semper FI
The fat electrician is awesome.
You should definitely check out Roy Benavidez.
Marine Corps birthday is the 10th of November, which should also be a National Holiday.
If you watched the video to the end, you would see Daly himself.
All of Nickâs videos are really good. You should check out all of them. Yes, Iâve been subscribed to his Fat Electrician channel for a while now.
They put him in for a third time but the military refused to.
1 Mistake in there though, Daly was mid 20ties in the boxer rebbellion, not 16.
Please react to this dudes video on âthe infamous eager beavers and their custom b-17 bomber - old 666â itâs literally my favorite video on the internet
