At 07:56 seems like the russian inside was able to shot some rounds and wound the cameraman? No subs, so I can only translate whats seems to be pain sounds coming out of the heros mouth.
balls of steel
Long footage like this is very valuable to better understand the reality of combat, thanks for sharing
Thank you for the translation ♡
Ah hell nah I’d kms if I went up against a unit called “hate group”
0:32 I can’t carry this backpack anymore.
0:37 I even want to throw my AR in the bushes.
0:43 Where’s Martin? Let’s go.
0:46 Fuck, I can’t leave my backpack here, we need to get as close as possible.
0:57 This area is in their range of fire, we need to move.
1:01 There’s only one way through here.
1:07 Everyone here? Let’s go. We;re leaving.
1:13 Who’s carrying the launcher?
1:16 Fuck the launcher.
1:30 I’ll fucking die.
1:44 Dniepr, blyat, is that flying shit loaded?
1:50 Let’s fucking go.
1:51 Where??
1:54 We’re not going to take it, let’s go back.
1:58 Fuck, AGS.
2:18 DROP!!! Drop! DROP!!! [alerting his boys that there’s a drone with a drop potential]
2:21 You alive? I’m asking are you alive?
2:23 Yeah.
2:25 Whole?
2:25 Moisha, let’s move!
2:43 There! There! They’re there!
2:45 Where?
2:47 Dugout at 12 [o’clock]
2:50 Cover that.
2:57 Move closer.
2:58 Sanya, point your gun there at all time.
3:21 What did you think, I’m not gonna make sure you die? Of course you will die. Get it! [click] Oops, sorry, be right back.
3:28 Haha, whatever, don’t waste ammo.
3:36 Entrance? Where is the entrance?
3:38 That side. The entrance is from that side.
3:42 Boys, make sure they’re not gonna smoke me.
3:43 Sure.
4:02 All right, I’m moving in.
4:17 Get it, bitch
So obviously a video game can’t give even a shadow of the feeling of real combat, but I played a match of ArmA the other night and ended up in a forest like this and at the least it will really make you empathize with how fucked it is to fight in such an environment.
Every direction looks the same. You look somewhere and make a mental note of it and then moments later realize you can’t find it again. Someone’s yelling “from the right!” but you don’t know what direction right *is*. You can be taking fire that’s coming from 100ft away or from the next hillside and not be able to tell the difference at times. You can walk straight into trench positions or the firing lines of machine guns before you realize they’re there.
Sound echos around weirdly and even small terrain features can obscure your view. A hundred different things look like soldiers and everything around you is simultaneously sort of bullet proof and sort of not so you end up trying to be as low as possible most of the time which just adds to the low visibility and confusion. Throw tons of smoke, gunfire, and explosions on top and it’s pure chaos.
Intense footage. Pretty sure I heard something hiss by at 2:23.
The amount of times I’ve watched these and thought, “there can’t be any dudes left in that bunker” and there are totally dudes still in that bunker.
Damn at 04:21 you can hear the screams. Intense stuff
