I watch all of them, unless they’re long. It’s actually encouraging for the most part, because it’s amazing how many videos they post that are quite obviously failed attacks, but they expect the viewer to be impressed by a big boom. I even saw a couple where the video stopped before the IED explosion was even over. Yeaah, I’m sure the part you editied out was Stryker parts flying through the air, guys, we trust you!
I’m sure if anyone was filming my friend Daniel when he came under IED attack it’s posted on YouTube as a major victory and a sure kill. What actually happened is Daniel and his gnner both had their ears damaged but they were out of the Humvee with their rifles looking for the SOB in seconds, and both returned to duty in short order.
Yeah — you know, I think that’s funny too. And if you look at the comments on some of the videos, you’ll see that people who know what they’re talking about will point stuff out like that. Stuff like the fact that the parts of the supposedly downed aircraft are from some model that hasn’t been used in Iraq or stuff like that. Always makes me smile! :-)
