Not Work Safe ∴ Don't thank me; thank YouTube/Twitter/TikTok

Severe Clear, a doc made by a Marine officer during the opening of the war in Iraq. It's on YT, it's also on Amazon Prime. More than the doc, more than any tactics or strategy, it's a great insight into Marine culture. There is a lot of this I miss, and a lot that was cringeworthy then and now and I do not miss. @Ooh-Rah @Gunz @Teufel , and tag any others I missed....

Ran into this today… I always thought there was a little something special about Anna Kendrick.

What’s cool about this video is it’s done in essentially one shot, everyone had to be perfect and on their game to make it work.


That reminds me of the show Stomp, a girlfriend from a lifetime ago took me to see it on Broadway:


 
Meanwhile in the Coast Guard…

1: Holy shit!
2: I read in one of the comments that Swimmer was fresh out of training and this was his first official rescue.
3: I’ve seen enough episodes of Deadliest Catch to know you face the bow into the waves!


They were conducting training when they responded. If they weren't already in the air, this would have ended badly.

But it's crazier than just that.

Man rescued by Coast Guard wanted in 'Goonies' fish incident

What the fuck? That was insane. To think both survived that wave...and people wonder why rescue swimmers are trained so well. It isn't some water polo match.
 
In other news, go USCG and Victoria Police and ICE! A Fugitive out of BC has been apprehended and the weird events involve the Goonies House, a dead fish, a stolen vessel, a capsized vessel, USCG Advanced Helicopter Rescue School, and a forgotten jacket on a Coast Guard Bird.

People on drugs create so much needless work (not saying this fish slinging mariner was, but wouldn't be surprised).

The wave that capsized the boat and washed over rescue swimmer was no bueno. Solid rescue. Our boy @amlove21 probably lovin' that vid.
 
I'm sorry, I thought I put this in the . thread. This isn't u tube @Ooh-Rah could this be moved?
Hey there! You did put into the dot-thread, but we already had a conversation here about it so I just consolidated all the discussion into one thread.

This thread has turned into a catch all for YouTube/Twitter/TicToc videos so I might just change the name of the OP thread.
