Navy SEAL Rates Naval Special Warfare Scenes in Movies | Jason Pike

[@devonowens3652]

This is by far my favorite break down, He takes the fact its a movie into account when talking about stuff and then explains how everything works and the differences. I would watch entire series of this guy.

[@frogmantactical]

Thank you. Much appreciated. God bless.

[@ferociousfil5747]

Yes absolutely honest breakdown. Sometimes the truth is too crazy for Haywood as well…

[@supra1jzed]

@@frogmantactical agreed with original commenter. Many of these videos people will bash on the film for things that are sometimes painfully obvious "audience aid". Or just the logistics of the shot needed one thing one way or the other (thinking helos here, at altitude, not going to show on camera). I like that you "get it" and understand some things are simply done for the audience to understand what's happening, see what's happening, or simply to help lubricate the stories progression.

"Act of Valor" was like a recruiting movie for SEAL teams. I thought it was pretty good. "13 Hours" was kick ass too.

[@dad2022]

You oughta read “Gray Work: Confessions of a Paramilitary Spy” written by a guy SMOKED by the liberal media in hit pieces who accused him of lying, but he’s the real deal who happened to come out against Obama. But he wrote the GRS sops used by the guys in Benghazi years later.

[@GoldPicard]

Honestly the only true reason I liked the movie was that 160th got some love and hey who isn't impressed with the sight of an Ohio-class SSGN?

[@truemenimprovedaily]

The “actors” in act of valor were actually navy seals that wanted an honest take of seals in Hollywood

[@BruceMusto]

@CH Hansen it's still a Hollywood movie directed by Hollywood people.

[@dmutant2635]

@@BruceMusto I think the production team for Act of Valor had been making training films for the military, if not the Seals themselves, and had developed their trust to "get it right" in an action film. Sometimes there are "Hollywood people" who aren't actually Hollywood people in Hollywood. lol O Dark Thirty and 13 Hours on the other hand were obviously established Hollywood A-list crews.

Every once in awhile in Pearl, the Seals would use a ship in port for some training. Approaching the ship, putting simulated explosives on it. Whatever type of training they were doing. The duty section on the ship would of course be alerted and we would station people topside with lights and I think once we even had some night vision. This was all many years ago, in the 80's and 90's. We never saw them. Never had any idea where they were. For all we knew, they could have been back at their team building drinking beers. Probably not though. Good video. Thanks.

God Bless You , Shipmate . I was a surface fleet OS from 1985 to 1995 . During my time I was a member of the SSDF on a DDG and a CG , and an MP in a forward deployed port . On a few occasions we were the training targets for enemy swimmer attacks . For the sake of national security I will not divulge the US Navy fleet's methods of defending their assets . But I will say that being a combat diver is probably the most demanding job in any military branch , and defense against combat swimmers is a specialized type of warfare .

[@frogmantactical]

You are right. Diving against those things is a lose lose situation. Almost 100% failure rate. Be blessed.

[@Dang3rMouSe]

Excellent breakdown. Not rushed, great descriptions. Have a couple friends that served on teams, one of became a friend in college. He thought I had the right mentality & wanted me to go for SEALs back in the day. Honestly I regret not doing so. Love you guys, some of the most solid dudes I know I can trust. If you're young, have or are willing to have a no quit attitude & think you can handle the life (it's going to suck a lot at times) then go for it once you've decided. Don't hesitate & stall around.

[@BonesTheCat]

Villages at night have like a "song" that everyone there knows unconsciously. When an outside influence comes in the tone of that song changes and everyone feels it. Crickets, birds, cats, dogs, footsteps, clothing movements etc etc etc. You have to be exceptional to be there and not disrupt it and be detected.

[@lindapowell117]

Jim Powell speaking here. Your breakdown was great. As an old Navy vet, an Airedale to be exact, I often wondered how much was a reality in these movies. I also liked the swift boats and the fire power they possess. I appreciate the SEALS dedication and how you study the enemy. How you execute a mission.

I really loved this breakdown, and I'm pretty pleased with myself for noticing a lot of the same inconsistencies. During my time in the army I had the pleasure of working with our 5th SF group out of Campbell, and as for breaching we used det cord, one thing I learned after being on both the giving and receiving end is that the door is not only an obstacle, it's also a weapon. Thanks for making this, I really enjoyed this movie, especially knowing these were real SEALs, and wondering how much of the combat was based on their guidance and input.

[@aaronspaulding205]

Had the opportunity to meet some TEAMS guys in La Maddalena, Sardinia when an FA sub moored up next to our Sub Tender. I had countless conversations with these guys, and even showed them where the local watering hole was on the Island. These guys were normal human beings. They didn’t have wings, Marvel super hero powers, wear a cape, etc….but they were Alpha Males all the way. Not one time did any of them act arrogant or condescending towards me.

It has gotten to the point that when I am outside at night and I don't hear them any more (usually uncounciously), I know something big is in that area. There were two seperate times that it ended up being a black bear. I found this out because both times, I had gone inside and 5-15 minutes after, my game camera caught them walking through the area I was in. It was my fault because I was sitting right near the "animal highway" in my yard, haha.

Awesome breakdown man. I love when actual SF guys breakdown how real some movies are, it gives us civies a little window into actual situations. You should definitely do some more like, Lone Survivor, 12 Strong, Black Hawk Down, etc. My only "critique" is you should put the title of the movie you're reviewing somewhere in screen so the viewers can watch the full movie at another time. Lastly I was surprised Zero Datk Thirty was made only because Seal Team 6, like Delta, operations are heavily classified, & they aren't usually shown to the public. Which is probably why there are almost no movies with Delta members or team 6. Keep up the good work

Wasn't Special Operations, but I did train as a Special Weapons Team member in an 8 inch SP firing battery between Fall of 1981 to January 1986. I had to train not only to assemble the weapon, but also secure it. None of the OpFor we faced during training seemed to have an idea of how to take us out. Every time I had to deal with such a situation I would do the easiest thing to disable the device. The weapon was inoperable minus some components that were easy to carry so those were what I had my team take off with when our assembly area was attacked.

You should check out the gulf of Somalia scene from sicario 2, its short but seems pretty good, awesome video!

I haven’t seen that one but I will for sure check it out. Be blessed.

Would like to see you review the SEAL Team tv series. I know they had actual special forces to consult and I know they actually listened (mostly) to what was being said instead of Hollywood BSing everything for dramatic effect. There's a couple of scenes in different eps that just give you the absolute chills (or maybe that's just me and my Canadian reg force experience, not to mention the typical military humor). Two in particular stand out to me.

It’s on the to do list. A lot of requests for that show. Be blessed

@@frogmantactical @Frogman Tactical Might I suggest Season 1 E2 "Other Lives" And this is why we don't blow shit up indiscriminately no matter how cool it looks on tv E8 "The Exchange" the joys of orders not lining up directly with your moral compass/personal beliefs. E9 "Rolling Dark" creative three way in all the wrong ways. Or, alternatively, I'm not sure that's the intended use but we'll go with it. Season 2 Eps4-5 "All that Matters" and "Say Again Your Last" (continuation of previous ep), last part of Ep5 just chills. School is cancelled, not the snow day you were hoping for. Mass cas events suck. It's a good broad overview of different things that a team might encounter or be called on. Better then most tv shows which inevitably devolve to bad guy crash and bash then hero party. The joys of actually listening to the people you consult when making a series. There's many others, several seasons worth in fact. Some good room clearing and actually covering eachother, stacking on doors, muzzle awareness. Nothing quite turns me off in a military movie/tv series as seeing a friendly pointing their weapon at another friendly. Actually recognizing that HALO/HAHO jumps are two different things and it's not always just jump out and pull (or be on a static line...I hate F*ing HATE static lines). There's some unrealistic shit too. But it is a tv series.
