A few of the sas guys back home were on about how boring it could be and how disciplined you had to be as a sniper. They could spend days laying in the same spot, pissing and shitting almost on the spot, watching everybody, just waiting for the right target. Sounded extraordinarily hard.
I'm Canadian. I might be bias but I want this dude on my side
Canadian snipers are relentless and actuate. Nothing but love for both of these heroes.
Actuate?
Hero’s? They’re killers not hero’s lady.
@@Zakrox99 L + Ratio, Wanna know who the real monsters are? The ISIS, Taliban, Boko Haram, etc. Stfu and grow up
@@Zakrox99 They served there countries and sacrificed their lives for our freedom. That is a hero in my book. Especially when the enemy was using innocent women as human shields and taking over there homes to kill our troops. You should really be thankful but I’ve learned that everyone has an opinion. You have the right to yours and I have a right to mine. ✌️
@@lisamarie333 they serve a dictator. And those people wouldn’t be using women as human meat shields if the western governments didn’t invade their countries. Think about it.
I had the pleasure some time ago, shit, over 20 years ago to work alongside JTF. I was personally based out of C.F.B. Petawawa. Our collaboration of sorts was based elsewhere. This unit/organization is the real fucking deal. 100% professionals. So tight and dialed in. Huge respect for all team members past and present.
Thanks for the clips Shawn, excellent content
Great show I watch this a lot .. good to see a fellow Canadian on here CHEERS EH!
It takes a special kind of man to do sniper work.
The Missions are not only Direct Action, The Intelligence Snipers Provide when in Over watch is invaluable both to field commanders as well as to the Intelligence Staff (G2).
The greatest fellas! Keep them coming!
I get it. This was discussed with me as well. Movement, attitude, body language. An openly expressed culture of violence, intimidation, and abuse marks the enemy more brightly than any uniform can. You get to a point where you can click it in a second from very small amounts of information.
Canadians when not at war “sorry e’h “ Canadians at war “your sorry E’h”
Nothing changes a Canadian more than the word we are at war.
What dose one expect when they challenge weed smoking whiskey drinking lumberjacks, fishermen, and farm boys
You're*
@@rickhall517930 you an English teacher or something?
@@drowsy4209 Nah, he just passed elementary school.
The distance 😵💫 and then heads 💥 💥 , it’s amazing 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
People that dont shoot dont know hard it is to just look through a scope for long periods of time
Heck even not on a scope, just...staking out anything, anywhere for hours is freakin' exhausting.
People who DO SHOOT PROFESSIONALLY knows very well that a 2.2 mile shot is... PURE LUCK !
Had no clue what being on a sniper mission is truly like. As was mentioned, it’s nothing like whats portrayed in the movies. It only took me 5 decades to finally know the truth lol😄 I don’t think I’d have the patience to sit for days waiting on a target. Think I’d lose my mind😄
thank you to the JTF2 and all canadian armed forces for helping keep things safe
Dude literally looks like he could be Bam Margeras non-alcoholic Heiniken brother.
Congrats on the 700th time that joke has been said/ripped off. Be yourself man.
@chadgrov I didn't know that was a thing. This was the first clip I ever saw of the guy and I thought he looked like Bam Margera...
So...suck it cuck
That was funny. Whoever said it first
Don't blame bam. It's a disease. Do you no what he did for skateboarding jackazz. It's a different reality. Do you think this dude can do a kick flip off of 20 stairs.... dude people strive at everything differently. Don't blame bam bro he's struggling. Try it some time. I'm an alcoholic I have 2 months to live without a transplant. I doubt I'll get one so I have a death sentence. So keep your bs to yourself .I'm canadian I'm not bias. You need a to clear your head and remember bam
Love the boots Ryan look like a more traditional riding boot!!👌🏾
Hes wearing shoes....
@@nayr87 ?
Man I've done LE sniper work and it sucks. There really is no fun part, aside from range time. Even then you have to be on your game and serious, but it's nothing like in the field. These dudes are on top of their shit. We trained out to 6-800yds, but the majority of LE shots are under 100yds. It's mostly Intel gathering and your eyes and brain hurting. Kudos and thank you for your service.
woah i didnt know Bam Margera was a sniper!
Go to war in flip flops. My Nam vet Dad would approve!
Everybody wants to be a sniper until it's time to do sniper shit😂
THx for re posting. F'ck censorship.
A former Ranger I know - who claimed to have worked for Dynacorp in Iraq, claims that the sniper in that video years ago with the BW dudes on the roof in Najaf (Travis) had 250 confirmed that day. I had asked him his thoughts, not knowing that he knew they guy, how many people he thinks that guy popped given the comment they made "holy shit, its a turkey shoot" and he squeezed off a lot of rounds in that video so I can't say it isn't a possibility but damn.....Not a boring sniper mission that day to be sure.
250 confirmed would be...pretty special. However, that's not necessarily a sniper mission. Haley was using an SPR (basically a DMR rifle) and essentially engaging entire crowds of fighters. I believe there were some 1,500-2,000 fighters attacking that compound in Najaf that day. I have no doubt Haley and company did some serious work, even if 250 is a little questionable. Those guys in that kind of situation aren't tallying it up and keeping track.
Shut up
Think I heard he said 80 some…don’t quote me
I was gonna say: hurry up and wait amirite?
I just realized, if they were shooting from a hotel room, wouldn't the hotel staff freak out about the loud bangs of a MacMillan Tac-.50 coming from the room and send the police or soldiers?
If they told the hotel staff ahead of time, isn't that a big security risk?
Veva la Bam became a badass
1st I hope you are the best Shawn! Love you since the beginning so happy for you !!!
Everyone wants to be a sniper until it’s time to be a sniper….
Semper
USMC / Retired
No you are wrong
20 hrs waiting time for no shot taken until the moment I had to piss before taking a 15 minute nap
I wonder where the family that used to occupy their little operations tower went .😂
I'm no sniper, but I've been deer hunting many times in my life since the age of 10, and honestly deer hunting is just BORING... the funnest part of being deer hunting was sitting up at night around the campfire telling jokes and getting drunk... lol.
Hunting is an excuse to get out and drink away from our wives. You figured out the secret.
How far away were y’all observing from?
In a war your a hero if can return to your family and function normal without more war.
nice to see servicemen like this, recently heard on a podcast an australian soldier joking and laughing about how he mistook a police officer for a terrorist and blew his head off and then lied to mp, even said he joined the army just so he could kill people. It's nice to see people be human.
Do you remember which podcast and episode it was?
He probably made it up
One second backed by thousand, millions, billions of the opposite
Any excuse to show the clip again 🤣
F the Canadian SF Top Brass
I thought this was “His Majesty the King’s” video?
F*ck the king, and the Canadian government. Sincerely, a Canadian.
bout these boys coffee and redbulls when they were training here
Its nothing like deer hunting, there are also people out too kill you also....so big difference!!!
Seriously, you are criticizing the opinions of two Tier 1 Operators in their analogy? Big balls, small brain.
Love all the hard charging parrots in the comment section, saying verbatim what they said in this clip acting like they know
Most of the work is done at night
I slept 14 out of 168 hours
Take a Murphy view of the marine who I was helping he say you boys know your men better than there mamas
Ha 2000m, try >3000 m
Why don’t you try it? The dude has the world record. When you beat it then you can talk.
They did lol canadian has the longest sniper shot at 3.6km
they were all enemies, its just some carried guns
BRUTHA BRUTHA... Can't wait for Kristen Beck.... Gonna be a GREAT SHOW...
Canadians at war are like a herd of honey badgers.
Eye in da scope babes in da woods
I'm an astronomy nerd, I can say that using a binoviewer makes eyestrain (for me) almost nonexistent.
Aside from my lack of proper vision and coordination (possibly) that would be the best job for me. Maybe scientist... I hate waiting for fish to bite. I hate waiting for them to swim through the muddy water, coincidentally to my hook. But man I sure do have some patience, for the big and the small. If I have believed that something will eventually come, I'll be there waiting without spooking or self sabotage.
Nope, I was a SWAT door kicker. Fuck that laying in the bush shit. But......
much respect for overwatch and target acquisition. A special skill for sure.
Sounds exactly like hunting when I was a young boy, except sniping in the military you’re hunting humans with animal consciousness 😉
In this instance they were hunting ISIS members, not humans.
Ah…his first deployment was 2015 so he doesn’t know those guys were mimicking what they saw coalition forces do.
Huh?
He didnt even know anything! You cant do the stuff they talk about. Why are you there for hours ?! It is not possible in combat from my limit or extensive experience. Unless you are in your base or hub somewhere. Then is so boring.
Is there anything heroic about shooting a man who is 1000 meters away and therefore cannot shoot back. It's nothing to brag about or be proud of. War or no war.
Spoken like the kind of man who would hunker down with the women and children.
@@poopfacemctavish7080 No. Sniper also kills children and woman. I will hide behind a wall.
The important thing is that they are dead. 100 m or 3000 m , whatever it takes. One less enemy . That is the point. Every kill is the potential saving of one of your own.
I know right. He should’ve walked up to him through enemy territory and politely asked the ISIS member if he’s down with being shot at.
@@bobmiller4383 But to talk about it, like it is a competition and something to be proud of is disgusting. You kill a man who dont even know you a there hiding like a coward. We all know that in war it is a necessity. But definitely not something that makes you a hero. Either way, you hide from your opponent without him getting a chance to defend himself. Absolutely nothing heroic about it.
