CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Jackson (Barry Pepper) once again displays his sniper skills, until a tank takes aim at his bell tower.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Steven Spielberg directed this powerful, realistic re-creation of WWII's D-day invasion and the immediate aftermath. The story opens with a prologue in which a veteran brings his family to the American cemetery at Normandy, and a flashback then joins Capt. John Miller (Tom Hanks) and GIs in a landing craft making the June 6, 1944, approach to Omaha Beach to face devastating German artillery fire. This mass slaughter of American soldiers is depicted in a compelling, unforgettable 24-minute sequence. Miller's men slowly move forward to finally take a concrete pillbox. On the beach littered with bodies is one with the name "Ryan" stenciled on his backpack. Army Chief of Staff Gen. George C. Marshall (Harve Presnell), learning that three Ryan brothers from the same family have all been killed in a single week, requests that the surviving brother, Pvt. James Ryan (Matt Damon), be located and brought back to the United States. Capt. Miller gets the assignment, and he chooses a translator, Cpl. Upham (Jeremy Davis), skilled in language but not in combat, to join his squad of right-hand man Sgt. Horvath (Tom Sizemore), plus privates Mellish (Adam Goldberg), Medic Wade (Giovanni Ribisi), cynical Reiben (Edward Burns) from Brooklyn, Italian-American Caparzo (Vin Diesel), and religious Southerner Jackson (Barry Pepper), an ace sharpshooter who calls on the Lord while taking aim. Having previously experienced action in Italy and North Africa, the close-knit squad sets out through areas still thick with Nazis. After they lose one man in a skirmish at a bombed village, some in the group begin to question the logic of losing more lives to save a single soldier. The film's historical consultant is Stephen E. Ambrose, and the incident is based on a true occurance in Ambrose's 1994 bestseller D-Day: June 6, 1944.

One of the many things that i feel is a great part of this scene is that you actually see him miss a couple of shots... gives you the feeling that he is still human and is not perfect.
yeah, he hits that perfect midpoint, extreme competent, without sacrificing believability, makes the hits feel more impressive because they're not a guarantee.
I saw this at the cinema when it came out and I remember thinking the same thing - the director wasn't scared to leave in messy details that someone else would have cut out. It's like the long pause when they're flushing the Germans out of the bunker near the beginning. Another director wouldn't have bothered.
Besides,he is fighting a desperate fight here against the germans so is normal to miss.
That's why it's amongst the top 5 if not the BEST war film ever made
@@km-1867 I think it's the best just because of how many veterans have praised it as realistic
The greatest thing about Jackson is that the first thing he does when he sees danger is not to save himself but to warn his friend.
Caleb Hu right here cared about Parker
Who would first safe his own life? Is this normal for you Amis ?
That’s why he’s in heaven!
He warned his friend because he knew he was doomed.
@@riturajseal6945 Lesser men would still try to save themselves even if they knew they were doomed.
Jackson was my favourite character in this film. Calm and badass. You didn’t always see him but he was there.
Y'all got that right.
He's left handed to boot!
@StuntmanGoat 😢😢😢June
Mine too
Me too
If you guys are wondering why he kept on missing in the end, I found this on reddit: "In Saving Private Ryan [1998], Jackson uses two scopes (Ureti 8x scope on the left, M73B 2.5x scope on the right) and swaps between them regularly. This results in his Ureti 8x being 'unzeroed', which causes It to be inaccurate, resulting in Jackson missing a lot of his shots later on."
Ah that makes sense.
Why would he use two scopes? Why would he use a scope that becomes inaccurate?
@@hexagonalawareness3584 Differences in zoom, 8x brings the target a lot closer that 2.5x, but 2.5x is better for closer ranged targets since the 8x would be fuzzy at close ranges
@@navfilms Thanks
@@hexagonalawareness3584 He probably didn't have time to zero his 8x scope towards the end
The character who is the most religious and Christian ends up dying in a church.
Didn't notice that till now. And Ive been watching this movie 2001
@@erickpoint0 I didn't notice it until I rewatched it last night, and his last act was trying to save somebody else.
Yes I love that great movie
"Most religious and christian"
Thats why this and band of brothers are top notch movies.
This was so sad to see, Jackson was their savior the whole movie.
I agree!! Notice in the very beginning Jackson was the last resort...to take out the machine gun team on the beach...Capt Miller even threw himself out in the open for distraction....
The ghost
agree. i just realized this
Just watched this movie today, one of the best ones I’ve ever seen. Jackson was my favorite character. So unfortunate he had to go out that way.
Mind when shot the German sniper through the scope, a thing of beauty
The craziest part about this scene is that dude realized that he didn’t have have enough time to get out in less than a second and instead tried to warn his fellow brother who may have had enough time to survive, true hero.
That’s what it’s all about!
No, the craziest part is that he knew he would be done for, if he kept firing, once the tank rolled up - and made the choice to keep picking off enemies to help save his unit from the enemy infantry rush.
The last shout he made just further proved how committed he was to his unit.
His heroic act wasn't the final shout he made, it was his decision to pick off enemy infantry that were advancing on his unit, sacrificing himself to the Tank spotter who would quickly find him, and order the deployment of a High Explosive shell right at him.
Well he IS a Christian
'My shield and he in whom I trust...
Christian or not, that's powerful
NO its not Powerful. Its just the Words.
@@bobby3787 what?
Every time when im in a sniper mission in a game
@@bobby3787 yeah the words of the eternal almighty GOD
@@hehexd7341 well, the words of a man to his God. But you know, alright. I find the passion and conviction far more convincing and powerful than the idea of the diety itself.
The most badass character in the movie.
Its ironic how he quotes lines from the bible before he goes on a killing spree
+King Krogo It's war. Thats different
+King Krogo and the last horse crosses the finish line.
yes. it's called dramatic irony. and yes it's on purpose.
a christian left handed sniper?? fuck yeah the most badass character on the movie!
@King Krogo Yeah it would be if he was there by choice. But seeing as most were drafted to go fight over there, he probably didn't want to kill them, but had to in order to protect the ones he loves and his fellow soldiers.
I still consider him to be one of the greatest snipers in movie history
Gaming Moments
Nope, the second. The first one is Vasily (Enemy at the gates)
Wtf a random american sniper that kills a couple of germans at close calls is now better than Chris Kyle and Vasili Zaitsev and many more that I am forgeting.
Arrows are love Chris Kyle is a confirmed liar, therefore you don't know what to believe regarding his tales.
Arrows are love yes Chris is good. But he gets all the spotlight. Jackson is more badass.
That little girl in Full Metal Jacket would disagree.
For a lefty he works that right-handed Springfield like a pro
Yeah he did it so well god gave him an extended 8 round mag lol
So glad someone mentioned this! I'm right handed but am left eye dominant. I learned to shoot the same way.
Interestingly a lot of people use offhand rifles, although this is a bad example. A lefty would use a right handed rifle so he can keep his finger on the trigger and load with the right. Similarly rights use left handed rifles. You also get to keep looking down the sights if done properly
I was like why does it look so strange when he uses the bolt action, then I realized he was left handed
Most powerful part of this scene is Jackson reciting “Psalms 144”.
Barry Pepper is underrated as an actor. So talented.
He really is. The movie he in with Edward Norton and philip Seymour Hoffman is amazing. Plus the film he in with will smith, 7 pounds is exceptional
Knockaround guys, he was good in that too.
Also "Snitch" with Dwayne Johnson
Don't forget "The Green Mile" and "The Lone Ranger"
He wasm great in 61* too playing Roger Maris
unbelievable to think this movie was made almost 20 years ago. MUCH better war scenes in this movie than what anybody sees now-a-days
yeah
now a days we see
he we are going to break physics
BECAUSE REASONS
ding another sin counter
The war scenes and atmosphere pretty much make the movie. Nothing too special otherwise, but it certainly isn't forgettable.
loiterbro Today everything needs to be PG13. Gotta maximize the profits.
RMJ1984 And protect our children.
loiterbro Hollyweird propaganda shit is what this movie is.
I had an elderly neighbor over for dinner around the time this was out on rental. The topic of the movie came up, and I warned him about the opening scene and how brutal it was. He told me, "I don't need to watch it, I lived it." Man...it hit me like a gut punch. I can't imagine experiencing that...
It seems like a lot of people had an elderly neighbor who said the same quote...who knew?!
@@TheCrayonMan529 lol glad someone pointed that out
So original, every video of my Saving private Ryans’s rabbit hole had this comment.
Man alot of people most know the same elderly couple LOL
I knew a guy who was a Vietnam vet. I asked him if he'd seen Platoon. He said no and he wouldn't. If he was inaccurate, why bother and if it was, he didn't need to re experience it.
I was in awe when I realized that once the .30 cal machine gun ran dry, Jackson IMMEDIATELY filled in and engaged the enemy with his Springfield. The bravery of doing this - filling in for a suppressing fire-intended, automatic weapon with a bolt action rifle, is incredibly brave. It took me many times of watching this movie to grasp that personally.
I guess there is a psychological aspect to suppressing fire too right? Like if Jackson shoots two soldiers with his rifle that he might have halted an entire platoon from advancing.
That part pissed me off more than tom hanks death. That dude was a kick ass sniper man.
I agree bro
@@angelloj.diazdelaguila472 actor!
Nah the guy waiting on the stairs
Josh Wiseman that pissed me off too smh.
My friend and I watched it and turned it off right there. We were legit sad lol
Props to Barry Pepper for simulating the recoil of his 03 Springfield. Blanks definitely do not give that much kick, so he had to purposefully do that. Made it much more realistic and believable.
What if they weren’t blanks 😂
Plot twist:they weren't blanks
@@familygroves34 😂
They were probably real bullets and he just was shooting them at a wall or something. Then they added the scope view for the movie
Left handed shooter - using left thumb over technique on a standard sniper issue Springfield-authentic technique - best I’ve seen on a screen.
The camera work of this film was literally ahead of its time. It looks it could be a new film and not from 1998.
They took a lot of inspiration from the combat scenes in Dr. Strange Love, if you get a chance, check it out, the camera work on the MG firing down on troops is very very similar to the bunker shots in Saving Private Ryan. And the combat footage at the base has a lot of shaky cam handheld shots.
@@NeoDragonKnight perfectly said. Spielberg was inspired by war documentary footage and from Kubrick’s camera work during Burpelson Air Force Base attack scenes from
Dr Strangelove. He told Stanley during one of their lengthy conversations.
This dude was the best character, change my mind
No
@@BreakingWhite who then
No. We will all not dispute this.

By the way, the guy who plays Private Jackson also voices Corporal Dunn in Modern Warfare 2.

but now im wonder

He was praying for god to magically give him more bullets to be able to fire 8 rounds from a 5 round magazine.
EVERY SINGLE TIME…I watch this i always hope that it ends differently. Jackson was by far the best character in the movie.
There's always one person in the team who, as long as he is alive, you are sure to win. Jackson was THAT person in that company
Free Palestine!
That is how you rout a company from the battle...you kill their best fighters. The rest will flee.
His death was the point of no return. Hadn't it been for the bomber planes the Americans would've lost this battle.
@Peter L Why Legolas?
Reminds me of a Ghost Town match I was in my team had a single Sniper that Annihilated every Robot he saw when the Giant soldier bots came he took out half of the medic bots healing them unfortunately he got killed by a crit rocket and met the same fate as Jackson
God why do I keep seeing Movie scenes happen In Video games

Corporal Dunn* he is also Alex from Prototype

Mr Rumbo haha 🤷🏻♂️
Good for him
the sniper moment was so badass that even the war itself was silenced just so we could watch him.
for u to get some jackson's POV? you are focus on the enemy , and u been in a fight like 10 mins or so , the gunshot sounds has become white noise , thats my way of this scene
Pretty cool observation actually. I like to take it as if Jackson was so in the zone that every other sound was blocked out of his senses.
i lost faith for the team to win when Jackson died. 😔 it's a mixture of disappointment for Upham, acceptance for their loss, and another bunch of disappointment for Upham.
hahaha
he wasnt fit for the role of a soldier and he had no combat experience at all. Upham did what he could, after he saw what he did he started to become a soldier by killing his german "friend". I dont like him either but i understand what he had been through tho
Expecting an intelligence officer with no combat experience to do well when you shove him behind enemy lines is utterly ridiculous.
@@Arigost
Upham is not an officer lol. He is just a military clerk on desk duty that suddenly got assigned on field duty because he can speak french
@@junowhyarewetalkingtoeacho4215 Ok.
I love that he prays and tells his friend to get down before saving himself.
I was really bummed when they killed the young sniper dude. He was cool
RIP Pvt Jackson
I know right, he made me want to be a sniper :(
Me too he made me wanna be a badass
A sniper at the radar tower that didn't climb a tree and take a shot?
he died a hero
I love this scene so much. Jackson is scared absolutely shitless, hence his recital of bible verses to feel closer to God, but he’s not cowering whatsoever, he’s doing his job like a well oiled machine. Great character, I was seriously bummed when he died.
Well said, it really humanises the characters in the film. They’re fighting for their lives, but their training allows them to complete their mission, at the cost of their lives though.
Doesn’t he always recite the bible before taking a shot?
@@mooseking7545 Yes, everytime.
This movie is so good that even the viewers deserve an oscar for watching it
🤣🤣🤣
Jackson missing the shots at the end was a telling point that he knew he was close to death. Him and Parker put up a huge fight in the bell tower, but I feel like they knew they were trapped up there and started to panic with the numbers of German soldiers, just shooting off rounds in the open and not using his act of being hidden anymore. Scary scene
honestly when the tank aimed at him i for once thought he was gonna fire down the barrel and explode the shell
BFFs Engineer *tank destroyer
Yeah that's just hawkeye's things
Wait wouldn’t that work or would that be impossible I’m sorry I just need to know
@@lemmonox it's near impossible because the barrel of the tank is perfectly straight, so to hit the shell , IT NEEDS TO BE PERFECTLY ALIGNED WITH YOUR GUN, OR ELSE IT WILL MISS THE SHELL
Besides im pretty sure shooting a bullet at the shell will not have it explode.
I cried when Pvt. Jackson died.
Understandable
Have a nice day
@@hiki5070 you too friend 😂
That's rough buddy
nvm i just cried
Jackson is one of Miller's best soldiers, great partner in the field
I think he's the smartest and the most educated in the squad (with the exception of captain Muller, of course). The speech he makes about their mission being "a misallocation of resources" is very eloquent and extremely convincing. That's why captain Muller uses it as an example to tease Reiben, who's always nagging but in a far less inspired and more tedious manner. Besides, it's common knowledge that more educated somebody is the better and the more effective soldier he makes.
I like how he is more life educated than academically.
I believe the Captain was more educated academically because he's said he was a teacher before.
I don’t think Jackson was educated in the normal sense. If you recall when they’re looking through dog tags for Ryan he doesn’t read well and thought Rienne was their guy. My guess he got most of his education from Church and had a very good memory of the sermons.
@@Bulls520
In the initial script of the film it's stated that Pvt. Jackson is from West Fork, Tennessee, and that his father is a preacher. Makes total sense. As for the misreading, it's probable he was also dyslexic.
@@zedrick-sama2915 not necessarily you can teach some subjects without a doctorate thus someone can be better versed in the subject than a teacher

Very Rare Left-Handed Sniper.
I mean, most of the shooter are right-handed, and left-handed are rarely being found.
I am right handed but left eye dominant, pistol aint hard to ahoot with left eye but rifles are, besides semiautos and autos expell hot cartridges feom the right which is a pain since i shooy from my left shoulder.
xxbeto92xx It's possible to train eye dominance, just block out sight from your left eye with some paper or something, eventually your right eye will adjust to compensate.
***** ive tried believe me, but sights are blurry with my right eye haha, and i refuse to wear glasses haha
xxbeto92xx Don't the empty shells hit your face? I am right handed, but I would have to use my left side because my right eye is not very useful at sniping
I saw this opening night as well. I remember after seeing Jackson get taken out by the tank I had that overwhelming feeling of dread and sadness. The most dependable guy in the squad just got taken out and now they are truly on their own. RIP Daniel Jackson
Yeah man. But the point is that they NEEDED a tank to beat him because no regular soldier could.
@@quotablegnome8621 great takeaway on this
From 1:52 to 1:57 you can see in his face expressions a mix of rage and inner thoughts that he won't see his family never again.
He clearly knows that he's not coming back home but still fighting and trying his best.
That split second of horror Miller feels at knowing Jackson is gone is harrowing. He forced to put it out of his mind seconds later to keep fighting but that split second is so, so powerful. It's a combination of shocked helplessness and dreadful certainty.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed that. Jackson never gave Miller any problems and seemed to never question his decisions like some of the other soldiers. When he saw that explosion he knew that his most stable, loyal, and fearsome soldier was no longer in play. Miller had an endearing love for him and that brief look of shock says it all.
@@nikeflight17 Well said.
It was sad for captain miller to have seen one of his best soldiers die 😢
Loved him as Dean in the Green Mile, loved him as Private Jackson in this movie.
We were soldiers, true grit & enemy of the state also. This guy is underrated
@@Locadel2003 Right, and Enemy of the State was released in 1998 the same year as Saving Private Ryan.
Just watched EotS last night after watching SPR the night before. Tom Sizemore and Barry Pepper had a good year, along with everyone else.
I believe he is not just a private in the movie, he's a special operator. I don't know what it is called , "specialist" ...
It was a shame though that he was in battlefield Earth (The horrible movie with John Travolta)
He was also good in " We were soldiers"...
“My Hightower, my deliverer, my shield in he and whom I trust”

Saving private ryan is one of the greatest movies ever
Fun fact: Jackson wasn’t a sniper. He was a designated marksman. They’re an integral (organic) part of a fire team/unit. Snipers are typically SpecOps operators who work solo or with a secondary colleague; a spotter if you will.
@Aquisha Ayen FRANCISCO which part?
@Aquisha Ayen FRANCISCO
Designated marksmen are used to supplement a squad by providing accurate fire on the enemy from distances out to a max distance of 1,800-1,950’ away. Usually there’s a need for repeated shots. Because of that, the DM is usually equipped with a scoped semi-automatic rifle called a designated marksman rifle (DMR). Similar to snipers, DMs are trained in scouting and precise shooting, but unlike the more specialized "true" sniper (who often operate independently), they operate as an intrinsic part of an infantry fireteam and are tasked to lay down accurate support fire at valuable targets as per tactical necessity, thus extending the reach of the fireteam.
He's a sniper ffs
@@Erwin_Von_Heidenheim I'll dumb it down for ya. Both DM and snipers are sharpshooters. But the former operates as a part of a squad alongside other infantry soldiers while the latter only operates alone or with another sniper (in such case, the other sniper is given a role called 'spotter'.) Role of a sniper usually is to eliminate high profile targets or to suppress enemy movement by pushing them into covers. But DM are given more diverse roles as they are often forced to roll with the punches in rapidly changing situation in battlefield.
@@guhalaa I gotta agree with stalin here lol
Jackson is a boss.

Ulysses .S Grant My name is Jackson

Wow even a general thinks Jackson is a boss
Snipers cardinal rule: "Never fire more than 3 shots from a single position!" That's why he got killed because tank crew was able to figure out his location.
@Kar Lead that prayer says a lot about exactly that.
His duty was to shoot as many enemies as he could not of thinking how to escape. All of them knew that it was likely to be their last stand.
Lmao nah how about he got killed because it was part of the script?
wow Jeremy, I would have never guessed that. i thought they figured him out because he posted on facebook and it gave away his location.

Mine Fish he's 2nd
Because he was so stupid or why?
For being left handed firing a right handed weapon, his reload speed is amazing. Jackson was always my favorite character in this movie.
Barry Pepper is a very underrated actor in my opinion. Great performance by the whole cast, great movie.
2:01 the international signal of "you're fucked"
😂
Sometimes i complain about going to work in a 10 year-old car, sitting in traffic in the 120 degree Arizona heat or about my small apartment with a noisy AC. But knowing that many 24 year-olds were on landing D-day beaches puts into perpectice just how fortunate my generation is. We never had pick up a gun for our freedom.
David Stewart I would prefer to go to war.
leon1234578 say that in 20 years I'm sure you would be happy and grateful to not have to die for your country. life is precious man good or bad. most people who end up going to war are only there either because they know they have to or for other emotional reasons.
David Stewart usa didn't fight for freedom
lol bro, 24 was OLD for a soldier. 18/19/20 year olds were landing on D-day.
I would say 19 not 24
one of the most heartbreaking scenes. i really root for him.
I cried when Jackson went down. I almost didn't finish the movie after that.
firing a bolt-action rifle just grows your balls to the size of tennis-balls..there's just something so much better about them than semi-automatics
Its more manlier than anything because you have to risk taking your eye of the enemy to load another round rather than taking pot shots with a automatic.
So we should just sit back while the enemys come to our country and bomb the crap out of it. Seems legit
Yup, bolt action...nothin like it. Love the sounds of the reloading
+TheKeisari it makes you take pride and carefully aim your shots because of having to bolt a new round in after each shot. So when you hit your mark it feels more satisfying. Thats what I think it is
Reno Konishino I agree that bolt actions are fun (and very satisfying.) But there is some true fun with revolvers, and a fully automatic. But I like bolts and lever actions, and revolvers.
I love this guy he is probably in my top three favourite actors and I still don't know his name
Barry Pepper
Tom hanks?
Ok
Barry pepper
He's a favorite of mine too. I've read that he had the most awesome childhood, travelling the world with his family by boat.
His breath, bullet shells on the floor, you can hear everything so great. Well deserved Oscars.
And, uhm, Jackson was my favourite character, too.
When Jackson‘s phone rings in the cinema, they pause the movie.
I don't think any man could hear that prayer or watch that scene without tearing up, very powerful stuff.
Best Barry Pepper performance.
*61 wins for me
I like the fact that Jackson left handed and the way he works the bolt, kind of a handicap but he’s still just as effective with it giving you the sense of how talented he is as a sniper.
Seen this movie over 20 times. I will never get bored of this master piece 👌🏼
Me too!
this was the most tragic scene in the whole movie. No, really, think about it.
He lost his nerve for the first time in his career, missed his target, and was then killed in action.
The last shot he ever fired was a miss.
I know, it hurts.
His last words were to try to save his fellow man. That's more important than his final shot in my opinion.
After the miss he fired two more shots, we don't know the result of those.
The interesting thing to me is that once he stopped praying, he got killed.
Not only do you not see the result of the last 2 shots, where do you see a loss of nerve? He is viciously fighting the entire time. He didn't panic when he saw the tank, what's he going to do? Shoot it? He just knew he was doomed and immediately yelled to his friend to get down. Was this comment meant for a different clip or something? Because none of what you said happened in this one
sam gabriel well we don't really know if he missed because it didn't show the scope for the last shot
He didn't die. He just got blown out of Saving Private Ryan into the future where he landed in We Were Soldiers.
you forgot he played russian sniper mitka in painted bird.
No, after this he joined the marine corps in flags of our fathers.
Nah, he’s an immortal Army Ranger and fights with Sgt Foley and Ramirez in MW2.
You're all bullshitting, he respawned later on and went on to drive a NASCAR stock car in the movie 3: The Dale Earnhardt Story.
No no no he got blown into the past and became Lucky Ned Pepper and got killed by a Texas Ranger named Lebeouf.
This sniper had too much talent to die. Rest in power, Private Jackson
I pay a huge respect to all you guys in the comments of WWII movie clips! You show so much technical and historical knowledge, precise comments on character motives and also, the stories of ones relatives fighting at wars in real life are just breathtaking! You guys are an awesome community!
Seriously one of the best movies ever made. Every scene is like this. Intense, emotional and realistic.
Unbelievable film! Every scene looks so real! Why hasn’t another movie been made like this? Like all the sounds and details of the bullets impacting its insane.
The reason of these realistic battle scenes is: Steven Spielberg ;)
Band of brothers
The pacific
Flags of our fathers
Letters from iwo jima
Hacksaw ridge
The first two I mentioned are mini series, but better than saving private Ryan in my opinion.
@@Mike91337I remove Hacksaw ridge from your list and add The Thin Red Line.
@@tintzaw9915 why not both
When we were soldiers
Barry Pepper is one of those wonderfully talented people who rarely get talked about.
I love the fact that Barry Pepper (the sniper) played with Tom Hanks in this movie. The following year, he was with him again in The Green line.
The sniper will literally forever be my favourite character in any film ever
Then i bet you must love the movie Shooter with Mark Wahlberg huh
jackson is a goodlooking man
It's a little defeating when you realize Tom Hanks has several hand grenades on his person throughout the entire battle and doesn't use any.
He did?
Something about how this movie conveys war just hits so hard. Like every bullet feels like a jumpscare. And when people get hit - they go down instantly.
Utterly terrifying.
I think it's the sound design (it won an oscar for it's sound if I'm not mistaken)... it's get the sound right -- in detail -- and that makes it immersive.
He should have done a 360 no scope of the tower
Nitram Anyer MLG detected. But very good!
Nitram Anyer He didn't have commando pro on
He needed to put his controller sensitivity on max
to do that
Cod nerds
What, and give away the fact that he's Alex Mercer?
"I'm out of .30 caliber"
Then whats that belt of brass hanging out the left of your 1919?
CandyHam Either minor bad edit or conserving it for later.
that an Jackson shot 8 times
+CandyHam that was the emptied "clip" it was the belt the bullets were on
+John Dennis You can see the rounds still in the belt...
they were empty casings on the belt
At 2:07 you can see Jackson's face in the upper right corner
this movie was so realistic, to the sounds, characters, guns, and smoke coming off of the bodies, especially the wounds, great movie and steven spielberg did a great job
Funny how during this time 18 year olds charged into certain death, but now they need safe areas because words hurt.
Lol during ww1-ww2 most teens wanted to join the war.
You got that off ifunny and it isn't even funny
+Doktor Skeletor dont forget in wwi german kids were sent to war not even out of highschool
William Grover true dat
jeans423 What?
My friend saw this movie in the theater in Germany. He said no one talked leaving after it was over.
When the German sniper finally sees the rifle, Jackson shoots him right through his weapon, into his eye. Cool.
Sadly, that shot would of been impossible in reality, due to gravity and wind.
@@vesuvius115 Spoil sport!
@@patchdavis35 Not gonna lie Though, if someone hit a shot like that, I would probably be so impressed, I'd go into shock.
@@vesuvius115 its not about gravity is because they were close it is very difficult because the shooters have to be alined
@@joyaxalpa4229 It very much is because of gravity, they were at a good distance where the bullet would of dropped some, not to mention, its raining so it was probably windy, also, once the bullet hit, it would of broke the scope and stopped moving in total.
As a kid this part made me sad, also he's a badass sniper
Spielberg wasn’t bullshitting when he shot this film. Well done and full marks all ‘round 👌
As soon as I saw the tank lock on while I was watching this movie, my heart sank
haha ikr same here.. i was like " NOO-"
Yep pretty much...."he is f**ked"
The most baddass sniper of all time
Fun fact: That "tank" that kills Jackson is actually a Swedish Stormartillerivagn M/43 Assault Gun(Sav M/43 for short and based off the 38(t) chassis) converted into a Marder III Ausf H. This exact one was also used in the show Band of Brothers.
thanks!
I watched this movie when I was a kid..and this sniper is the one got my attention. 22 years has passed and I’m still remember him the most in this movie.
Private Jackson was the most badass fighter from them all!!! R.I.P Jackson!
I always figured him missing the shots after reciting his prayers were a sign that his time was up. He did it everytime and never missed.
You can tell how awkward Jackson has to use the bolt being a lefty
That's why you don't tweet your location in Chicago.
Jackson should have known better then to fire that many shots without changing positions. A sniper should never stay in the same spot for too long. Also the bell tower wasn't a good sniping post. Sure it offered good view of the battlefield, but it didn't offer a quick means of escape.
+TheStapleGunKid It also silhouetted him and was very predictable
Indeed, if you pay attention he says earlier in the movie (of the German sniper) "Thats where I'd be"
He saw his team losing men and started to get desperate if you watch his demeanor change in that scene he started just firing shots off, then they caught on... sad part
His duty was to shoot as many enemies as he could not of thinking how to escape. All of them knew that it was likely to be their last stand.
TheStapleGunKid how much do you weigh?
This one still gets to me. I thought nothing could kill him after what he survived to that point. But that’s war,
My favourite character in the movie
