I drink 2 imperial IPA’s and 3 30% vodkas doubles every night. It’s hard on the body, I’m trying to stop, but my god does this video get me into a feeling I can’t get out of.
"My love, you're strong and you'll do well in life. I love you and my children deeply. Today and tomorrow, let each day grow and grow. Keep smiling and never give up even when things get you down. So in closing my love. Tonight tuck my children in bed warmly. Tell them I love them, and then hug them for me and give them both a kiss goodnight for Daddy."
The ending of this movie,is by far one of the most powerful endings out there. Truly deep. I cry every time i see this,and I'm not ashamed at all cause if you don't,then you really understand.
It’s an understanding that only those of us who have worn the uniform and been in the situation can truly relate. I️ cry every time I️ see this scene and unashamed by it as well.
I was a teenager when this film came out. Watched the film with my stepfather who served in the Navy as a combat medic. No, he was not involved with Operation Gothic Serpent. But he spent enough time in the service to understand this movie far better than me. And when I noticed he was crying at the ending I asked him why and he said unless you serve then you’ll never understand.

The parents of Corporal Jamie Smith, the fallen soldier who Eversmann is talking to, were a big reason why Mark Bowden was able to write the book on which this is based. They assured Jamie’s Ranger brothers that Bowden could be trusted to write an accurate account of what happened. If you’re a fan of the film, I highly recommend you read the book. It paints a much more detailed account of the battle and the soldiers. Amazing albeit harrowing read.
A soldier dies, to which country he belongs doesn't matters. He gave his life to defend a belief. We all should respect that, no matter he fought for you or against you. He lived like a warrior and died like a warrior.
Not that I necessarily disagree with you, but a suicide bomber terrorist also gives his life to defend a belief. Should we respect that too? Unless you believe we should give our respect to someone as in my example, your choice of words may not have been the best to describe what I ~hope~ you meant with that. In which case, never mind my reply. Not all warriors are saints, and not all deserve my respect, regardless of which side they belong to.
It's all a matter of perspective man. Those who we call 'terrorists' deem themselves as soldiers. Either way, I get what you're saying and I agree with you, for the most part at least. A soldier who fights and/or dies to protects his fellow comrades, friends, family and the people of his country is a man worthy of much respect. What side a soldier represents should not influence our respect to him. What I don't necessarily approve of in your comment is the word belief. The word may not come around as badly in this context, however if you think about it, this isn't the best word that could be used here. A belief, for example, could mean that you blindly believe any people of a certain, race, religion, nationality, ethnicity, etc should be killed without further inspection into their lives and who they really are. Now dying for that, for instance, I could never respect. What purpose I would respect sacrificing yourself for though, is protecting the lives of others. See what I'm after here? Well that's a lot of stuff I've written here... Frankly, I reckon were both on the same boat here. Basically I've just wasted both of our times with a whole bunch of text because I didn't approve of one word you've written. What am I even doing... Welp, cheers lad!
People always bring up saving private ryan as the best and most realistic war movie, but this movie does the same thing, only for modern warfare. This ending alone is why I will always hold this film slightly above any other, and that being said, this entire movie was amazing.
same here, Saving Private Ryan was great and all, but this one's feels strongly anti war as neither side is right or wrong (US vs Somali Rebels), as they're fighting for what they're believed in
We grateful for the service of the men and women serving in the military around the world and we will honour their dedication and sacrifice who put their lives on the line to protect our country, our freedom and everything we all love doing in life.
I will never not cry during this scene. I cry every time I watch this. Only the manliest of tears of course. Hans Zimmer's music does that. Black Hawk Down is Titanic for men.
What hurts the most was after this and 20 years in Afghanistan, what have we accomplished? All I can say is I am glad my sons will not fight in the same war I have. Not long ago, younger son put on a top of mine I didn’t secure properly and asked to join and I didn’t say yes or no. Just when the time is right
The narration of the end of a letter sums up the feelings of all who serve and have ever served away from home. We serve to protect those we love, to keep them safe. We pray and hope that they will remain strong, whether we live but even more if we are no longer able to be there physically by their side. As a father (but I am sure this would be equally as powerful for mothers), those last few words, asking the spouse to make sure the children know their daddy (or mummy) loves them, knowing they may never be able to do so in person as they sign off that letter.......salute.
"My love: You are strong and you will do well in life. I love you and my children deeply. Today and tomorrow let each day grow and grow. Keep smiling and never give up, even when things get you down. So in closing my love, tonight tuck my children in bed warmly, tell them I love them, then hug them for me and give them both a kiss goodnight for daddy."
@@stevenlyngdoh2819 why, is there something wrong with forrest gump ? its regarded as one of the best movies ever made along with shawshank redemption and pulp fiction
It does matter how many times i hear this soldiers letter, it punches a hole clean through me every time. Black hawk down was and still is the best war movie of all time. 100% respect to all our militarily warriors.
I remember being 14 when I first saw this movie. It impacted me on such an emotional level that it was the very first book I ever read front to back. Despite not thinking about this movie for years and now being 25 I can still repeat the ending speech verbatim from memory. Such a powerful movie
It what made me enlist, rangers lead the way. All the way. I was deemed medically unfit for service after finding out i had 3 herniated discs from falling as a Teen. I didn't know, it still haunts me to this day. 3 hours of night every night for 5 years is what if. This movie truly changed my entire life forever. Amen brother
Not a dry eye in the room this was such a gut punch the firs time i saw it. Beautifully composed and great job Zimmer on capturing the moment with your music selection. Didn't understand a single word she sung but remember how it made me feel when i heard it as i read the KIA list. Thank you boys for what you sacrificed. Thank you for your service.
@@venomsnakeYGBSM more than likely. Easier to publicly let the locals take credit and keep off the radar. Same outcome, just a different news headline.
@@thesneakyapguy7172 yeah general garrison wanted revenge.retired just the day after Aidid was killed cant be a coincidence. both the General and Delta wanted payback 😎
When I get home and people ask me,'Hey, Hoot, why do you do it, man? What are you? Some kind of war junkie? I won't say a goddamn word. Why? They won't understand. They won't understand why we do it. They won't understand that it's about the men next to you. And that's it. That's all it is
making into a joke won't change the fact that men have to say goodbye to their friends like this all the time. I still see my bros wife struggle after he was killed, and her son does as well
1:36 - 1:54 Lyrics : Un deiz a vo 'teuio en-dro Da analañ va c'halon c'hloaz't Translation : One day it will come back And take back with my wounded heart
when i was in the army, I served two years in Iraq, OIF OEF. this shit makes me cry like a fucking baby. Especially when hes saying im going to talk to your ma and pa when i get home. Shit hits so fuckin deep. It's been 10 years since i got out and still i struggle
Probably Ridley's last but this movie always holds a special with me. I saw it in the theaters after going through car accident and couldn't really see at the time but I really didn't need to experience this movie.
@jackkrauss makes me miss the military so much, 10 years and 3 tours and I miss it, got out because I got divorced and my ex wife didn't wanna parent are daughter at age of 4 shes 15 now... now I'm 40 and a single dad ( ex wife drank herself to death ) and I miss the military life being deployed, the friendships and bonds you built, the patrols, the equipment and guns it just never been the same sense always seems to be empty compared to that.
I remember the first time I watched this movie. This ending scene,along with the soundtrack had me STUCK!! I legit sat there,until the screen went black!!! No movie has ever been able to do that to me
Worst thing that you ever have to do is say goodbye to a friend and then talk to their parents about what happened...I had to do it myself and it’s not easy
Smith: Hey Ev? Do me a favor? You tell my parents... that I fought well today. And that I fought hard. Eversmann: You're going to tell them yourself. --- Eversmann: No one asks to be a hero... it just sometimes turns out that way. I'm going to talk to your Ma and Pa when I get home.
It's the first time I watch this scene since I saw this movie in theatre around 2002. I didn't realise until I heard this voice again that this is Jamie Lannister from GoT. Nikolaj Waldau has the perfect voice for this. Powerful ending, truly heartbreaking when you are a father yourself.
Saddest part about this ending for me is the final poem/quote where Shughart says “you will do well in life” to his wife. Just saddens me because it goes to show that neither of them really got their life started yet. They were still in the beginning when it all came to an end.
This is the best cut they could have chosen for the conclusion. I applaud Ridley Scott for cutting out the scene after this conversation. The uncut version shows Eversmann witnessing General Garrison staring off into the distance. The scene depicts the General’s regret and the Sergeant’s anger in a very heavy, short scene. Still, I’m glad that moment was cut because of the power of the music in this scene. Eversmann placing his hand on his fallen buddy’s heart at the moment the song climaxes is perfection. The cut scene prolongs the songs climax and doesn’t t have the same heart wrenching feel.
Priceless ! Stepping up when your backs against the wall ! Makes all the difference in the world ! How true it is nobody asks to be a hero - imagine that ? It just sometimes turns out that way ! 😔🤷♂️
The United States were not alone in this battle, Pakistan and Malaysia were also in the battle. The two countries fought together with the United States against the enemy.
I’ve never served a day in my life but every time I watch this movie, it makes me cry, truly a tragic event and fantastic story that should be told for generations
i don't know why i can't see this movie enough. these young men knew they would likely die and they kept going back out there for their brothers. to all the brave young soldiers that died RIP u did good.
The saddest part is that I guarantee not a single one of those names will be remembered by their generals, or the rich senators and lobbyists that sent them to die.

The movie is a masterpiece. Saw it in theaters and was blown away by how good it was. It also came out right after 9/11.(just a coincidence.)
The golden age of movies
Definitely one of the best movies ever made
Probably Ridley's last but this movie always holds a special with me. I saw it in the theaters after going through car accident and couldn't really see at the time but I really didn't need to experience this movie.
@jackkrauss makes me miss the military so much, 10 years and 3 tours and I miss it, got out because I got divorced and my ex wife didn't wanna parent are daughter at age of 4 shes 15 now... now I'm 40 and a single dad ( ex wife drank herself to death ) and I miss the military life being deployed, the friendships and bonds you built, the patrols, the equipment and guns it just never been the same sense always seems to be empty compared to that.
@youtubetim3577 I don't have military experience but I watched this after a just going through a life changing experience
Extremely powerful stuff. You don't see enough of this today
RIP to all of them. James Cavaco is my older cousin, we have the same name. I was only 3 years old when this happened. RIP Cuz
doesn't matter witch side your on they all fought like heros.
I'll never forget not being able to visually see this in the theaters due to a serious accident, and it didn't take away anything from the experience.
1.38 soon as that music starts, man the chills.
One of the best movies in our generation
Ridley graced these men so dearly
every time i watch this movie, I always read the names of the fallen.
I remember the first time I watched this movie. This ending scene,along with the soundtrack had me STUCK!! I legit sat there,until the screen went black!!! No movie has ever been able to do that to me
Worst thing that you ever have to do is say goodbye to a friend and then talk to their parents about what happened...I had to do it myself and it’s not easy
That kill/death ratio was insane.
So was the Vietnam war lol.
Yeah it was, but most Somalis were unarmed at the time. Still it was an unnecessary battle to fight many lives were lost American or Somali
The Skinnies were notoriously terrible shooters, so that’s probably a factor
@@MegaSheen15 you got a hundred or so terrible shots firing in the same general direction they're bound to hit something
The difference between trained and untrained
The song at the end makes it even sadder 🥺💔 Best movie ever !!!!
Smith: Hey Ev? Do me a favor? You tell my parents... that I fought well today. And that I fought hard.
Eversmann: You're going to tell them yourself.
---
Eversmann: No one asks to be a hero... it just sometimes turns out that way. I'm going to talk to your Ma and Pa when I get home.
I cry in this scene more than any other movie
It's the first time I watch this scene since I saw this movie in theatre around 2002. I didn't realise until I heard this voice again that this is Jamie Lannister from GoT. Nikolaj Waldau has the perfect voice for this. Powerful ending, truly heartbreaking when you are a father yourself.
No way? That pretty cool.
Song hits me hard :,(
Oh Lord, same
Saddest part about this ending for me is the final poem/quote where Shughart says “you will do well in life” to his wife. Just saddens me because it goes to show that neither of them really got their life started yet. They were still in the beginning when it all came to an end.
He's absolutely right, the true heroes are the ones that willingly gave the ultimate sacrifice so others may live...
Best ending scene to a movie ever. ❤ 🤍 💙
Gordon and Shuggard R.I.P . Sacrifice and Braves Men !!!
I'm breaking up with you
JSPUFC south park?
Fuck off with that south park shit
I can't fix you
I brake up
Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever,
ever fails to make me shed a tear
One for Ranger Ruiz, The Airborne Ranger in the sky! RLTW!
One of the greatest war movie of all time
Most Heartbreaking scene 😭😭😭
Abolutely
Ruiz's death was heartbreaking too🥺😭
@@erinb6173 who's that? In which scene?
This is one film I've never forgot and the fact its based upon real events. Such a great film.
I cry every time. One of the few films that gets to me.
This is the best cut they could have chosen for the conclusion. I applaud Ridley Scott for cutting out the scene after this conversation. The uncut version shows Eversmann witnessing General Garrison staring off into the distance. The scene depicts the General’s regret and the Sergeant’s anger in a very heavy, short scene. Still, I’m glad that moment was cut because of the power of the music in this scene. Eversmann placing his hand on his fallen buddy’s heart at the moment the song climaxes is perfection. The cut scene prolongs the songs climax and doesn’t t have the same heart wrenching feel.
Priceless ! Stepping up when your backs against the wall ! Makes all the difference in the world ! How true it is nobody asks to be a hero - imagine that ? It just sometimes turns out that way ! 😔🤷♂️
I came back from 2023 to watch this again....still one of the best
An again in 2024....after listening to song to the siren
This movie is why I became a producer the opea lady singing my name I knew it was my calling
When i see this movie first time i cried in this part so much😭
I cry everytime I watch this movie… best war film of all time
cant stop my tears every time....
i’ve watched this a thousand times especially the scene of the letter from sgt. ruiz 😢
Message to the "love" is fking strong... Goosebumbs are too heavy!
I hate it when a person disrespects someone in the the military doesn’t matter what branch or service they’re in.
Before have a child war movies made me emotional but after scenes like this break me down to tears
My borther RIP 2001 😔😢😭
The United States were not alone in this battle, Pakistan and Malaysia were also in the battle. The two countries fought together with the United States against the enemy.
People forget this. Many UN troops were involved but the brunt was put on the United states. Amen
I’ve never served a day in my life but every time I watch this movie, it makes me cry, truly a tragic event and fantastic story that should be told for generations
Saw this while on leave after having spent 3 months in Afghanistan immediately after 9/11. This is when what I had done and been involved in "hit" me.
rest in peace to those who soldiers fallen it might be hard to forget but its always rememberd specialy to my uncle.
This made me cry harder man
2018 R.I.P SAD ENDING😥
The best ending to a movie. Love USMC WhoooRa

+Bucky 17 Hans Zimmer made the song if i remember it correctly!
+Jerardo Vazquez That was an Army Operation though. Rangers and Delta Force. But I agree
denez prigent- gortoz a ran

Warriors. Rest in peace every man who fell during The Battle of Mogadishu.
One of the strongest ending and ending song of all time
*who's watching in Nov 2022? Next year will be the 30 year anniversary*
monthly motivation for me lol been years listening to this ending scene every dam month :(
i don't know why i can't see this movie enough. these young men knew they would likely die and they kept going back out there for their brothers. to all the brave young soldiers that died RIP u did good.
This makes me tear up, Ty to all
The saddest part is that I guarantee not a single one of those names will be remembered by their generals, or the rich senators and lobbyists that sent them to die.
