Hacksaw Ridge is such a great movie. When I heard about Doss praying "just one more" every time he carried a wounded soldier back made me cry.
For real man, I did as well
Dude, "just one more" gave me chills...
I can't get through that part of the movie without crying. It's the same with the end of Schindler's List.
I cry every time at that point.
I wonder if people noticed he came during april fools
Desmond Doss is a real war hero, with no weapons 75+ lives saved while under fire. As someone who is always the medic in games, this really gets me.
Kills: 0
Deaths: 0
Revives: 75
dying...I thought the same thing...I don't fight in games much, just revive, cover fire, distract...I can't even fathom ho w horrible reality is though
He saved japanese men which proves he cares about everyone
@@annamarley4029 you play battlefield?
in hell let loose theres an achievement. revive 100 players 1 game. named Desmond Doss.
its a achievement. but it feels like so much more.
Hacksaw Ridge is on top of the war movie tier list
Nah.
@@GatorDontPlayNoShit69 yes
I would also recommend checking out the award winning documentary that came out in 2004 called The Conscientious Objector.
Hacksaw ridge is 2nd place while the unknown soldier (2017) is 1st place
@@swwwsss7870 no. It’s alright, but I wouldn’t call it the best. Not by far
"Lord, please help me get one more."
😭😭😭😭😭
"And when I got one more I'd say it again lord, please let me get one more"
The scene just made me crying constantly 😢😢😭😭
Not even started, already know it's the almighty, Medal of Honor recipient - Desmond Doss. Hacksaw Ridge is a great movie based on this hero of America, glad you're reacting to his story. Incredibly inspiring!
An absolute unit of a patriot and a true warrior. Not all soldiers shoot, a lesson we today would be wise to learn.
There is a book that is a biography about Desmond Doss called The Unlikeliest Hero. His medal of honor citation notes he carried 75 wounded to safety, but unofficial reports showed that number could have been as high as 140. Absolutely a miracle what God did through Desmond. My family was lucky enough to meet him in the 60s, and he was the nicest guy you'd ever want to meet.
I love the book Unlikeliest Hero
That is a good message
Desmond Doss is the kind of man that makes me extremely proud to be an American. A man who lived by his convictions and did his upmost to do his duty while helping other people, even when those people spit in his face. The man is a saint.
“Saint Desmond the Selfless”
Patron saint of combat medics
@@TheMasonK that's an absolutely perfect name
@@goldenapplesaga5446 thank you!
You should also react to the simple history's "The Green Beret that went on a on man ramgage to save his comrades" That guy makes Rambo look a crossing guard.
Fax
Is that the one where the guy jumped out of the chopper in viatman
@@eukaziggy Jumped out of a helicopter with only a medical bag and a bowie knife and rescued several men from an entire VC Battalion and no I'm not joking.
Dude was a badass of a higher caliber
Roy benivendez
you should watch “Flag of our fathers” and “Letters from Iwo Jima” they both tell an incredible story from both perspectives of the battle of Iwo Jima.
Both are absolutely amazing movies, personally “Letters from Iwo Jima” is my favorite of the two movies.
The only draw back for letters from Iwo is it is all subtitled.
This guy was in my church. He was really a hero and I really respect his legacy.
Doss doesn't need a gun, because he has god on his side the whole war.
*Because he was on God's side. God doesn't follow man, man follows God. Everyone claims that God is on their side but God picks no side, you pick his.
@@HayderAbdulridha fax bro
@@HayderAbdulridha
That gave me the chills.
Truly inspirational.
A japanese soldier’s gun jammed when he fired at doss
@@ILoveDucksVeryMuch this proves a point
An old quote comes to mind" they say war is hell, but in truth it is not. For in hell innocence is spared."
God was definitely happy with this man
How woudn't He? I mean, Desmond lived by the Lord's word, I wish I was 25% the Christian this man was.
@@gabrielarkangelo He did what he had to do fighting in this war wasn’t a choice as i’m sure you know but the bible teaches us how to live like the greatest man to ever exist, jesus christ.
I couldn't agree more
There was a story where a Japanese sniper said “Whenever i was about to shoot Desmond, my gun would jam”
@@hithere2471 really?
Saturday most likely the sabbath I’m glad Desmond gave it his all and thank god for giving him strength.
Saturday is the original Sabbath. The Catholic church changed it to Sunday.
Their was a part of the story that always got me, when Desmond was interviewed in his old age he told of how he got a man who was covered in blood and terrified, their was blood in his eyes and he poured water on them so he could see. The Desmond said that the first thing the man said after getting his eyes washed out was “I thought I was blind” for some reason that part of his story got me the most
Another interesting fact Doss' Unit the 77th Inf is also the same unit that is famous from WWI for being cut off in the Argonne forest and becoming known as the Lost Batallion
There is a movie about this great person called Hacksaw Ridge ... how his fellow soldiers were mocking him for not wanting to use weapons, but how he ended up gaining their respect.
yeah, he talked about it in the video
My Dad and i have been rewatching Band of Brothers
Hoping to get into the Royal Marines when I’m 18 Wish me luck Mate ♥️🙏🏼Cheers For The good luck Comments
Might see u there
Could see you there, when you 18 mate?
Good luck bud
Stay safe brother
Good luck. Get ready for a daily grind
My brother is serving in the army, he’s training to be a paramedic right now. I have high respects for him and I can’t imagine what he’s seen as a medic through his military career
How in the world have I never heard of Desmond Doss until now?? This is one of the most compelling stories I've ever heard. It's really sad to know that a lot of stories like Doss's have never gained as much recognition as they deserve. I remember in School that any sort of WWII history was brief and consolidated and never really explored in depth. I would have really appreciated learning about MORE men like Desmond Doss who fought in the World Wars. What an absolute legend.
If you haven’t seen it yet. I highly recommend reacting to band of brothers and the pacific
ur onto it mate both are incredible
Yes!
Personally I liked the Pacific more than Band of Brothers but both are phenomenal
you gotta react to "The Green Beret Who Went on a One Man Rampage to Save His Comrades" by Simple History as well!
Hacksaw Ridge is one of the best and most realistic war films ever made. It's great and anyone who hasn't seen it needs to watch it immediately.
Every time I watch something like this I get chills. It’s incredible what the men and women went through in WW2. As an American, I got that feeling when I watched Dunkirk. One of the last scenes when all of the civilian boats appear over the horizon to get their soldiers out. The soldiers were brave to try to liberate the French, and the British people supporting their troops to get them home on defenseless boats was incredible.
The ferocity of the IJA and IJN was astounding. Absolutely fanatical troops.
It's not often war stories put tears of happiness in my eyes.
I love your reactions over other reaction videos, because you actually stop and talk about your philosophy instead of occasionally making a face or something.
That one war has probably 10’s if not 100’s of thousands of stories like this, and it’s so fucking crazy to think about.
The whole story was even crazier than what you have seen in that video and in the Movie. The makers of Hacksaw Ridge said, that many things the veterans and relatives told them sounded so crazy that they did not use them because no one would have believed it on screen. others were used but drastically downgraded to be believable. For example, in the movie, when Doss was wounded, he noticed the missing bible very soon and a comerade went out to find it. In reality he noticed, when he was halfway to the field hospital. there the staff promised to radio his company about it. as soon as his comerades heared that, the whole battalion went on the search for it.
As a former US Army Medic myself this man is MY hero.
The fact that he did that climb multiple times with balls so huge is already quite accomplishment on itself, not to mention the saving so many. They coulnd't even possibly put all the heroic deeds in the movie , because it would have to be at least 12h long movie, he wasn't just a hero, he's a super-hero🙂
Can you even imagine how long the soldiers had to be there. They were there for months and just imagine how long it take a month to pass by. That must have been truly petrifying.
The strength of God was surely with him. It's so inspiring to hear stories like this, and knowing what he had to go through both in training and in battle in order to do what he knew was right. God bless him, and all the American soldiers.
It's said that when everything was over with, the commander overlooking Doss said that ha had saved over 100 men and was dumbfounded. Doss insisted that he saved no more than 50 men, and so for his Medal of Honor, they compromised on the number of 75. Or so the legend tells.
i had watched the documentary about Desmond Doss in 2008, and was so happy that they finely made a movie about him. thank you for covering this. i enjoyed your reactions very much. i like most all of the react videos you do (especially the MrBallen reacts... which it is through watching MrBallen, that i found your channel) ... this was by far my VERY favorite react video i have seen on youtube, across the board, to date... Doss should be a case study for EVERY American school child or in any country for that matter. he truly fought for both mankind, and for his beliefs.
i hope you feel much better soon! love to you and your family. and my heart and prayers will be with you.
Yeah if you saw Hacksaw RIdge they show the real Desmond Doss at the end. He was a warrior. Wonderful story, brutal battle. Good review! Hope you feel better!
If you're really curious about Mr. Doss there is a book called "The Hero of Hacksaw Ridge" that adds more about the battles, his personal life, and his faith. It Is Written also has videos about him.
Hey Greetings It is Written in Adventist's too.
This man definitely earn a spot in heaven for his conviction and faith as well as his bravery in the face of such terrible odds. I am not a 7th Day Adventist but I am a Christian and I firmly believe that the Lord Almighty was watching over and protecting Doss during the battle.
So why was he not watching over and protecting countless of the others
that's cool to me your my brother in Christ, although, I wouldn't be a great Adventist's; if I didn't share about The Sabbath and being Seventh Day Adventist's.
We observe The Old and New Testament; where known for our Health Ministry pertaining to Genesis/& Leviticus chapter 11, our Prophecy Seminar's regarding Daniel and Revelation.
An celebrating 10 Commandment's Day. With emphasis on The 4th Commandment's Remember the Sabbath Day and Keep it Holy!
We believe in The Holy Trinity, we believe The Lord our Saviour died on The Cross to Redeem us from Sin; was buried in the grave and arose on the 3rd Day, and we believe in his second coming of which we all as Christian's look too.
okay, I shared Be safe in The Lord.
This man went above and beyond the call of duty for his comrades.
The world: Follow the Geneva convention.
The Japanese: You mean the Geneva suggestion?
"Oh, you mean that piece of paper we signed? Does it look like we're in Geneva? Why should we care about the rules?"
*tortures and executes prisoners in horrific ways*
*Gets nuked twice*
"Why won't America apologize for their atrocity?"
@@isaiahmiller9142 some of them also ate the prisoners. Fun fact ww2 didn’t end technically. I forgot the details but you can find it on google.
@@gunsodin5299 thats terrifying as hell
Hacksaw Ridge is absolutely moving. He was a legend and still is even tho he’s passed on. It was a nightmare up over that ridge. It had to be.
Is this the guy from the movie hacksaw ridge
At last, he reacted to some Simple History video. 🤗🤗🤗 #HacksawRidge #CplDesmondDoss #SimpleHistory
Hey Luke. The book about him is called The Unlikeliest Hero: The Story of PFC Desmond T Doss The Soldier Who Wouldn't touch a gun. The video documentary made about him is called The Conscientious Objector. I am Adventist as well and while i do believe that killing to protect some else or yourself i do agree with the reasons he had for it. I do eat meat but i avoid the unclean meats as a health choice. The thing they didn't mention about the sniper story is that there was a second Japanese sniper that came walking up to him after his medal ceremony and asked if he was Desmond Doss and he said yes. The man told him that he became a Christian because of Desmond. He tried pulling the trigger several times on Desmond but each time his finger touched the metal he could not pull the trigger whenever he was aiming at Desmond. He had killed a bunch of other Americans but not Desmond. Also when Desmond saw the injured man after he had broken his arm he was asking the guys to take the other man but they wouldn't so he rolled himself off of it and crawled his way over to help him. Fun fact. That battle where they took the ridge, that battle was on Saturday (Sabbath) and he prayed for his unit for 10 minutes after the battle was supposed to start. Nobody in his unit would go up till after he was done praying for them.
You watch Hacksaw Ridge and think, there's no way. Then you look up Doss and learn he did far more.
1:23 that timing was incredible
M1 is a fun weapon to fire, very accurate. If you are travelling the USA, you should be able to rent one, if you find a range that loans out weapons.
Side note, 82 MOH recipients have been medics/corpsmen or other medical personnel.
This one is personal for me, as Doss's first combat deployment was on Guam, my grandad was on the 3rd wave of Guam as a Seabee to take down the obstacles and support the infantry.
New Medic: I save lives.
Two tour CMB Veteran: I don't save lives, I just slow the dying process. Others save lives.
Might have been said but I remember hearing that when they made the movie the director toned down his heroics because he didn't think the movie audience would believe what he did.
Loving the vids keep u the amazing work. I salute that medic takes alot of courage to go to war let alone without a weapon
10:20 I know this sounds stupid but Kyle Garrick in MW(2019) says it best: “You can tell us when, you can tell us where. But don’t tell us how!”
Hacksaw Ridge is probably my favorite war movie to date. I still need to see 1918
1918 has average story telling but it is an absolute masterpiece when it comes to cinematography. I’d say story is 6/10 but the camera work and cinematography is a strong 9/10
This has to be one of the best WWII Medals of Honor: getting through all that unarmed and saving the lives of so many comrades just leaves me speechless! And I don't know why Hacksaw Ridge is so underrated...
And you, Luke, take care and good luck with the test results!
Love your content keep it up
Desmond Doss was man who commanded the respect of his peers both in his service and in life throughout he was an example of what every man should strive to be honorable, faithful, and true to his own beliefs dam the consequences
That one medic who have save 50+ people and have 0 kill
-75 KDR
Dame
Desmond Doss and Adrian Carton de Wiart are at the top of my list.
We just saw the video about Desmond. Who was Adrian Carton de Wiart?
A British officer who served in the Boer War, First World War, and Second World War. He was shot in the face, head, stomach, ankle, leg, hip, and ear; was blinded in his left eye; survived two plane crashes; tunnelled out of a prisoner-of-war camp; and tore off his own fingers when a doctor declined to amputate them.
I was in the 1st infantry division in Vietnam and we had several medics who were unarmed for moral reasons.
Ww2 was known as the Greatest Generation because a lot of men volunteered, there wasn't a draft until the last 2 years of the war
Luke! There is a movie about this guy, Hacksaw Ridge (I'm at the start of the vid so idk if you know or not) I definitely recommend watching it, good actor(s) and a great movie imo. *edit* yess there we go 17:23
Crazy fact about the battle of guam... 1 japanese soldier named yokoi didnt leave. He went into hidding during the battle and i think it was 30+ years later my friends dad went hunt and found this guy living in a cave. When yokoi was taken into custody he said he thought the war was still going on. He was released to the japanese government and forget what happened to him after that...you can actully take hike and see the cave where this soldier stayed
That film was so good it healed the pain out of me
I have watched it like 5 times and i get goosebumps everytime
Pain of communism nah I think it’s still on ya
Desman actually worked with the film makers and watched hacksaw before it was released and approved it as his story he wanted to tell
I've been to the medical base he was brought to back in America. It's now a school for those who have difficulties with certain skills or actions.
For the school bus idea, look up "schoolie." That's what they call a school bus that's been converted to an RV.
I would also recommend checking out the award winning documentary that came out in 2004 called The Conscientious Objector. It actually features Desmond himself giving his own accounts of events.
As a young boy I got to meet him in his later years he truly was a humble man and I'm honored to live in the same town
Wish i wasn’t born in 2008.
He's a great role model for sticking to what you believe when it isn't that popular! And the Sabbath starts from Friday at Sun down and ends Saturday at Sun down! 10 comandments and not 9 with one of the 10 split in two to cover the one removed.
That man was awesome I've heard of alot of stories like his amazing video as always 💓
Love the content keep up the great work, and also you should react to the video called "Canadians change when they hear the word war"
There was conscription during the war, but many joined voluntarily anyway
I remember hacksaw ridge was on netflix for like a week and I saw it on the last day. Hands down top 5 fav movies
Desmond Dos...his story every time I tell it to someone regardless of if they know it or not, regardless of if we're speaking face to face, in video/voice chat I get so animated, my voice rises and breaks...I get so passionate about it that it's obvious to people even in text.
The reason for this is because of a memory I have of asking my grandfather on my dad's side about war as he served in ww2, I was four and that day was the only time I ever saw the man cry...I wish I had known about Desmond back then...his story would have given my grandfather some peace of mind to know that one man did what should have been impossible.
Btw I live in New Zealand.
I recommend watching a wwii movie called to hell and back it's based on the life of the most decorated U.S. solider and he plays himself in the movie
I got to meet Does when I was in boot camp back in 96. He was a very nice and quiet man. It wasn't until I got out in 2001 that I learned that he lived about 3 hours from we're I grew up.
Hope you are okay. Also wish you saftey for your up coming travel got me at home in uk nervous for you. Look forward to years or cool content from you :)
Hope you feel better soon man!
My man theres a movie about Desmond Doss
Hacksaw ridge.
@@gunsodin5299 yeah i watches it
Just watched hacksaw ridge a couple weeks ago but now I want to watch again
His "this is your life" is worth the watch.
Liked and Subscribed.
It was a nice visit, and I'm glad to add your channel to my select list of reactors. #Cheers
👍🤓✌️
The rules aren't there to protect your enemy.
They're there to protect your humanity.
Later on after the war, some Japanese soldiers were interviewed and said they had Doss in their cross hairs but when the shot it him, their bullets somehow missed. He had a holy shield around him💪☔
Hey if you go through Arizona come to Prescott I am a huge fan of your videos and my grandpa is really good at giving tours of towns because he knows the history of them.
Been watching for a long time and love your point of view! Especially your thoughts on tolerance!
As a Japanese American from Hawaii, I would love for you to check out the 442nd video from Simple History. A great lesson of tolerance no matter of race!
My brother lived in guam for close to 10 years. He mostly camped out in a cave that had been used as a Japanese bunker. I met someone across the world who had known him there, and I got a lot of stories lol. Between that, and his time in the military, apparently, my brother is a bit of a legend
Watching the War on Guam from Guam, USA! Have lived here for 30 yrs. now. Thanks. We found half of a Japanese sword in our backyard years ago btw. As well, some unexploded ordinances have recently been found during roadwork here from WW2 close to where we have walked over at least 100 X's close to the jungle dog-walking. Happens all the time!
Violence begets violence. At least the Geneva Convention's rules of engagement were designed to minimise both casualties and the kind of treatment that might encourage a retaliatory war.
I love your videos and I hope you will have a great time traveling.
Also you should check Attack of the Dead Men by Simple History, it's both weird and insane what humans can do.
It doesn’t tell you this in the movie or the video but in Okinawa Desmond Doss was actually one of the ones who free climbed the cliff dubbed “Hacksaw Ridge” and set up the cargo net for others to climb up.
14:45 My great great grandfather was at Leyte, and I have always wondered if he saw or saw Private Doss
This story is always inspiring.
this reminds me of another ww2 story it was on the history channel back in the day. a sergeant in the pacific was shot three times as he covered the retreat of his men and loaded the wounded onto the back of a tank. he stayed in the fight manning an MG. if i recall right he finally fell back with the rest of his men.
Gotta do the video "The Green Beret Who Went on a One Man Rampage to Save His Comrades" by Simple History!
You should check out Audie Murphy, the most decorated American soldier in WW2. He was pretty awesome too. His movie is To Hell and Back the Audie Murphy story. You should come to South Dakota, we have Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is beginning of August and can be wicked exciting ( or something to avoid, lol).
There is a very old movie from the 1950s called To Hell and back about Audie Murphy the most decorated man in WWII. He actually stared as himself. It like Hacksaw Ridge actually left slot out because they didn't think people would believe it. You should check out either the movie or a biography of him.
The battle of leyte being mentioned reminded me of the story of Taffy 3 in the battle off Samar. If you haven't heard that story you should really check it out sometime.
yeah one of the few times Hollywood understated something about someone in a movie.
