========= The Unkillable Soldier LYRICS ==========
Into the fire through trenches and mud
Son of Belgium and Ireland with war in his blood
Leading the charge into hostile barrage
By design, he was made for the frontline
Studied law, with a thirst for war
Fought in Africa, wanted more
Back in Europe then straight to France
He’s joining the allied advance
Through the Somme and the Devil’s Wood
All the battles that he withstood
Born a soldier enjoyed the war
He always kept coming for more
Never die, shot through the eye
Never surrender however they try
How they try, shot through the eye
He’ll never die
At the edge of madness, in a time of sadness
An immortal soldier, finds his home
Proven under fire, over trench and wire
No fear of death he’s unshakeable
In the battles, when he was shot
Kept on fighting, and never stopped
In Arras, Cambrai, Passchendaele
Ignoring his wounds he prevailed
Save the day, he’ll never stray
Facing the foes that are coming his way
Come his way, he’ll never stray
Saving the day
At the edge of madness, in a time of sadness
An immortal soldier, finds his home
Proven under fire, over trench and wire
Forged for the war he’s unbreakable
At the edge of madness, he will show no sadness
Never broken, he’ll be back for more
Proven under fire, over trench and wire
No fear of death he’s unshakeable
Edge of madness!
No fear of death, he is forged for the war,
he will always be coming for more

-He lost his hand
-He was wounded in the stomach
-He survived two plane crashes, swimming to shore straight after one of them.
-He tore of his own fingers when denied an amputation
-Tunneled for months with one hand, escaped the camp-of-war, evaded capture for a week, not knowing the language but pretending to be italian.
-He fell off the running train, but managed to catch up to it, get on again, and rejoin the fight
-Travelled around the world (South Africa, Somalia, France, Poland, Italy, Norway, Indonesia, Ireland, Egypt, Yugoslavia, China
-Was a friend and supporter of Poland, lived 15 years in wilderness, engaging in hunting and being a friend to a polish noble.
-Survived 3 big wars, still got to live to 83 years of age.
This man is a human incarnation of will to live and survive.
Bro popped 8 totems of undying
White death had the most confirmed kills. He couldn't let his countries surrendering stop him from fighting the Soviets alone. Over 500 confirmed kills. That Nazi who fought destroyed 6 Soviet tanks in his first fight with a scout vehicle. Would later single handedly charge a combined American and British division who reported they were being attacked by multiple divisions and retreated/gave up the fortified town in. To a single tank without any infantry backing them up.

During WW1 he fought both in the African and European theater of war. During his time on the western front he was wounded and send to the same field hospital so many times the nurses kept one of his private pajamas, cause he was sure to show up again.
@@Alex-xt1rr complete madlad
Mind you, he also got himself a Victoria Cross in WWI on top of just simply fighting in it. Doesn't get more madlad than that.
And his death was not due to his injuries. Coronary thrombosis with arteriosclerosis.
Death in 1963: "Do you know why I am here?"
Adrian: "Cause I let you"
Death: "yes, sir"
Adrian: "Cause i'm bored, there are no more wars to fight, anything going on in the next world?"
He beat life so he decided to restart on a harder difficulty.

I honestly don’t know how Hollywood keeps coming out with trash when history is littered with incredible people like this…
because it would be impossible to work in a m*rvel tier quirky protagonist without this guy’s spirit fucking smiting them or something
imagine if Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg made a Band of Brothers version of some of the smaller, but really darn epic stories
like when american troops and german troops fought of a bunch of waffen-ss, or this, or a bunch of other stuff
Because the current state of Hollywood is that it's been flooded with regurgitated-for-decades garbage from Marvel and DC, them having aggressive marketing campaigns and literally not giving any breathing space to something new or creative. Because Marvel and DC are deemed safe sail and everything else outside of them is risky project. Even Avatar (that movie with blue tall aliens) was at its time seen as very risky project by CEOs of Hollywood because of Marvel's and DC's lobby being so strong.
I also think that history is goldmine for awesome movie material and story of Adrian would be so awesome to watch on cinema screens.
@Aditya Chavarkar as if 15 superhero movies per year aren't already redundant?
Right?? This guy`s entire life is a war/action thriller. Same with the Battle of Castle Itter. The script is all there, perfectly written by history. It just needs a budget & a cast.
The bloke is the equivalent of an plot armor protagonist on a novel. He always comes back more relentless and even better
This man is the quint essential FPS main character: He survives the impossible and still grows stronger at each return to the battlefield
Have you heard of Leo Majors?
@@chonklonkthetonk9513 Yeah, Major was more like Doomguy back in the days at Zwolle.
Some have called him the reincarnation of Oudinot
He was the main character of this world and we just didn't know
I'm thinking that, when he died, he just logged off and never touched the game again. To this day, us NPCs are still waiting for him to log back in.
He was a casual player who only showed up for the two biggest events in the game and then got bored.
Don’t worry a new update will come soon

Then there's the Jack Churchill (not related to Sir Winston) from Sri Lanka, who fought with bagpipes, longbow and claymore. Among other notable things, he scored the last combat kill with the longbow. Or Digby Tatham-Warter, who went into battle wearing a bowler hat and carrying an umbrella, which he used to poke a driver of the German armored car in the eye thus disabling the car.
@@theleva7 Jack Churchill was born in Colombo in British Ceylon, which is modern-day Sri Lanka sure, but his family moved to Dormansland, Surrey, shortly after he was born. and then they moved to British Hong Kong about 5 years after that. and then back to the UK 7 years after that (specifically the Isle of Man, until he graduated high school [6 years] and went to Sandhurst).
its more accurate to say he was from Surrey, the Isle of Man and Hong Kong (the 3 places he was raised) than to say he was from Sri Lanka.

"Lieutenant-General Sir Adrian Paul Ghislain Carton de Wiart, VC, KBE, CB, CMG, DSO ( 5 May 1880 - 5 June 1963) was a British Army officer born of Belgian and Irish parents. He was awarded the Victoria Cross, the highest military decoration awarded for valour "in the face of the enemy" in various Commonwealth countries. He 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. Describing his experiences in the First World War, he wrote, "Frankly I had enjoyed the war.""

Songs like this, about legendary soldiers, make me wish I had more time with my Grandfather, before he died, so I could have the stories behind the pictures my mom has, and more then the few stories he told her. He was in the US Airborne in WW2, fought in Italy (His Homeland) with the extended family against Mussolini, jumped into France during D-Day, evaded two SS officers upon landing in a French town, stole a German motorcycle, which the Airborne let him keep until the end of the war, jumped into Belgium during Market Garden, was encircled in Bastogne, and had an affair with the daughter of a high up German who was so mad, we still have the paper work of the restraining order. We all still miss him, but at least he has my Grandmother with him now, as she died back in January.
Was he in airborne 101 screaming eagles by chance ?
@@roncyrebello6407 I sadly don't know, he was either in the 101st or the 82nd.

To quote on of the comments
"The best soldiers has a little bit of crazy in them."
Your grandad is a Madlad
What a legend!!
This man was basically shot everywhere but the heart. He still survived both world wars, and only died by old age.
War might be torture for most. But for a few chosen, it is a way of life.
I honestly think the worst day in Lieutenant-General Sir Adrian Carton de Wiart’s life was November 11, 1918. The day the war ended, he lost his home.
Everywhere but his heart
And that’s what kept him going
The will to fight in his heart stood strong and never wavered
I don't think so, because he quite literally enjoyed war...
He probably died in his sleep, or else he would've fought back... Again.
That's how it is.

I strongly recommend reading "Happy Odyssey", Sir Adrian Carton de Wiart's autobiography. The song doesn't even scrape the surface of the batshit crazy life that mad lad lived.
Shot in the face, head, stomach, ankle, leg, hip, and ear; lost his left eye; survived two plane crashes; tunnelled out of a prisoner-of-war camp; and tore off his own fingers when a doctor didn't want to amputate them.

The revolution always seems to get stuck at the 'dictatorship of the proletariat', the proletariat being represented (very fairly, of course) by a party or a person. Those states have leaders and decorations, both inherently incompatible with full equality. Communist Cuba was known for its baseball achievements, the USSR for its chess players, the latter also had scientists outpacing the Americans in the Space Race.
Third, you think feudal Japan valued individualism? Thank you. Just in case I needed additional evidence you don't actually know what you're talking about, I consider it duly delivered.
The greats of history have just that in common: they're great at... something. Leadership, tactics, endurance, athletic ability, language, science, whatever. Society will exploit these talents, or they'll muscle their way in. That's just how it goes. I wish regimes as idealistic as what you describe existed; there is no state in the world that would discover useful talent and squash it rather than putting it to use.
The kindest assessment I can give your comment is that it's not good historical practice. Abandoning restraint, but not reason, I'd call it straight up disrespectful.
So basically Adrian Carton de Wiart got shot through the eye. Survived.
Got shot in the back of his head, but survived again because the bullet didn't hit his spine.
Gets shot again, loses his left hand.
Gets severely wounded so many times that the nurses started preparing his personal pyjiamas for when he returned once again.
He got severely wounded and nearly killed at least 8 times.
At last, he died.
At the age of 83, due to old age.
What a god.
If this was ancient times, you could bet this legend is sitting on a throne as the new god of war.
I made a D&D character for a Strahd campaign, a Ravenfolk Forge Cleric who had gone up against Strahd several times with different parties and lost 5 times before the story picks up, with him losing an eye, part of his beak, his right arm, left leg and part of the right side of his chest, with those things being patched up with his skills as a Forge Cleric, replacing the arm, leg and part of his chest with mechanical parts, giving himself a metal tipped beak and creating an eyepatch with is first company's logo on it.
I thought that that character was pushing the edge of what would be acceptable or believable.
Then I found out about Adrian Carton de Wiart, an actual countryman of mine (or at least half) and was like "Christ my character is a lightweight compared to what this guy did in real life!"
What an absolute madman that deserves all the respect in the world.
death decided to wait till he was sure he was dead this time
Death had to take him sleeping, had he been awake he would have fought... & Won.

This man was the quite literally the living meaning of “built different”
the only thing that could claim this man was old age even in death his memory still lives this man truly is unkillable
to steal a quote that's about Theodore Roosevelt,
death had to take him in his sleep, as otherwise there would've been a fight
This man probably would be the only immortal in the world simply because he kicked death's ass and took his place.
So Sabaton, do you want a music video or lyric video for this song?
Sabaton: Yes
That's kinda sums up all of their lyric videos. I mean, that is why they are special.

perfect 4chan post
he lost his eye and hand in the first world war actually. didnt stop him from signing up for ww2.
and survived two plane crashes, and escaped a POW camp by digging a tunnel and disguising themselves as an Italian citizen, despite missing an eye, a hand, was covered in scars, and didn't speak Italian whatsoever... at 61.
he is 100% a living greentext story
@@midnightMoonlight09 also when the palne crashed into the mediterranian sea where he was captured by the italians, he had to swim about 2 miles to the shore before they got him. he carried an unconscious comrade all the time and saved his live

Add Ernest Hemmingway for the death tried trio and we got a group
A relative of mine, Captain Ben Wilmot MC fought at the Somme from the first day. He was just a few Hundred yards from the Lochnagar Mine when it was detonated. He gained renown among his men for leading a hand picked group of specially trained Trench Raiders into enemy lines- Winning the Military Cross in one raid against the Prussians when he and his group destroyed several dugouts. He was 20. Hi met his death at Arras after leaving the trench he captured with a box full of hand grenades that he and his Sergeant Major used to fight off a German counter attack. They were successful, and as he was admiring his work, a single shot from a sniper hit him in the heart. He was 21. A Merchant in Peace, but a Warrior in War. He has no known grave.
Man Sir Adrian Carton De Wiart is the true definition of the word Badass. There's simply no other way to describe him. All the shit he did in WW 1 was insane, but he also did some crazy shit in the inter-war years and achieved even crazier shit in WW 2. Truly a man that loved war and was, as the song says, unkillable. Btw fucking amazing song as always.
"By design, he was made for the frontline!" Sums this EPIC MAN perfectly in this EPIC BALLAD! ROCK ON SABATON!
I pretty sure he went to hell of his own free will and know is the doom guy.
I imagine
In ancient times like um greece or egypt
This guy would be regarded as the incarnation of a god of War
Bro gonna make Ares and Kratos looks like a joke

@@Lionheartsmh Khorne realizing that this man existed but has long been gone for a very long time: DAMMIT, I'M TOO LATE TO HAVE HIM AS ONE OF MY CHAMPIONS!!!
I could only imagine what it would be like under his command in battle. I would guess that fighting alongside him would be so encouraging since you know you have a deadly juggernaut fighting alongside you.
He did seem to be a bullet magnet. I guess his men thought the closer i am to this guy, the safer I'll be.
You charge with the envoy of death himself.
This song fills me with happiness and power to start the day. THANK YOU SABATON!!! YOU ARE THE BEST LADS
Very Believeable.

Love how the second "EDGE OF MADNESS" at 3:37 blasts through the previous one, as if you think the last chorus would be standard, but he's very aggressively not quite done yet. It's beautiful musical symbolism and one you can wildly shake your head to as well
When Theodore Roosevelt passed away in his sleep the American vice president at the time Thomas R Marshall famously said "Death had to take him while he was sleeping. If he had been awake there would have been a fight". I imagine one of Adrian's friends said something similar when he died.
It's normal to have tears in your eyes when you listen to a story like this in a Sabaton song, right?
I would think so. Judy like how Sabaton can make me patriotic for a country I don't live in.
no, u pssy
Ah yes, adrian carton de wiart, the pinnacle of a soldier, he doesn't back down and charges head first to his enemies with his men. And a madlad who lead 3 battalions into battle. And even when shot, he'll always comes back up... Literally
Legendary 🤘
Couldn't have said it better Adrian Carton De Wiart an immortal soldier. This guy was surely born to fight, this is my favourite Sabaton song.
All the Sabaton songs are like, at first you don't like them for some reason, but as soon as you listen again to this song and realize the lyrics, you start to really like it and constantly plays in your head until a new song comes out, which will be even more cooler and beautiful
The few times there has been a Sabaton song i haven't liked, it has stuck.
Some songs i have been meh on starting out, but have grown on me.
Its called the sabaton paradox
He lived almost 20 years in Poland... He know how brave We are... in my opinion he has Ireland and Belgium blood... and Polish soul...
Indeed. And just like so many Polish in WW2, if you are looking for a way to get into the fight, offer your sword to the crown. There will always be a vacancy.
Belgium and Ireland look like the middle East nowadays and Poland looks like Romania nowadays
@@thesilverreich3947 i don't understand
@@stefanbirlog4622 the native population is changing unnaturally
My guy is the the literal defenition of " i ain't hear no bell"
Man he was good
"I enjoyed the war" holy hell
in an attack upon an enemy fort at Shimber Berris, Carton de Wiart was shot in the face, losing his left eye. He served on the Western Front from 1915, commanding three infantry battalions and a brigade. He was also seriously wounded seven times, losing his left hand in 1915.
During the Second Battle of Ypres, the Germans launched an artillery barrage in which Carton de Wiart's left hand was shattered. According to his autobiography, Happy Odyssey, he tore off two fingers when the doctor refused to amputate them.
So everyone know him because of one eye and one hand but what about this situatuon: En route home via French Indochina, Carton de Wiart stopped in Rangoon as a guest of the army commander. Coming down stairs, he slipped on coconut matting, fell down, broke several vertebrae, and knocked himself unconscious. He was admitted to Rangoon Hospital where he was treated.
Just what? This man is an absolute legend he even survive this in his old age. I have no words.
I've been alive for 22 fucking years, been a history buff my entire life, and constantly look into our world's past for answers to my questions. And yet I've never heard of this man before today. I feel sullied that I never did, and enlightened that I do now.
WW1 is so underrated we must give it more attention we can’t forget what happened
Sadly WW2 were more hyped by all countryies, as it was less depressive than first one.
I know more about WW11. I've started reading more about WW1.
This man took more damage than your average D&D zealot barbarian, and just like one, didn't know the meaning of the word "Die."
Absolutely lovely listen, and as always, it's great to learn about the heroes that arise in one of humanity's darkest moments. Thanks for the history lesson and glorious music, may you modern bards continue to sing and proclaim the songs and deeds of those who left their mark on history.
More like skalds, but yes, agreed!
What damage I just keep getting possessed or charmed
To paraphrase Douglas Adams, "the secret to immortality is to throw yourself at the grave and miss."
The more you read about him, the more insane and unbelivable his story gets. Carton de Wiart may very well have given death the middle finger more than any other military man in recorded history.
This man was a absolute unit just looking at his life and achievements, this is someone to look up if you are sad or depressed just for the fact that this man smiled away at all the odds thrown against him and spite in the face of danger death must have been like so salty.
I know, If this man can smile after seeing that much death and chaos, then we too can survive what we are going on with life
A man blessed and anointed by the Morrighan, fought 4 years, survived, the kitchen sink being thrown at him, and dies at the age of 83. This is someone that looked up and said, "Make that first shot count and, put me down boy, the next one is mine."
Sir Adrian Carlton de Wiart wrote an autobiography called "A Happy Odysseus" and the person who wrote the preface is none other than Sir Winston Churchill

A great song. As a WW1 fanatic, I really listen to her wonderfully.
Interesting song idea: about Fr. Świeykowski, who took the office of mayor during the battles near Gorlice. He helped all civilians in need, demanded as much food and other important articles as possible from the Austrian and Russian troops. He was supposed to be decorated by the Austrian government but refused.
His life was saved by his monkey, whom he loved very much, and he himself saved a very old painting from the church which was completely destroyed during the offensive. He himself had problems after falling from a horse (he was paralyzed on one side of his face). This did not stop him from helping people in the hard times of the war.
