It’s worth knowing that Mohammad Gulab, the man who saved Marcus, managed to escape the Taliban and is living somewhere free from the Taliban’s grasp. That man put his entire family in danger for helping a foreigner, much respect to him
I do not have military experience, but having a degree in theology leads me to the story of Sodom and Gomorrah and and the story of Lot and his family. Many are confused as to why Lot would offer his daughters to the evil crowd? And he also offered sleeping quarters for the Angels.( he probably was not aware they were Angels at the time?) Anyway, my point of the story is, that this is part of the laws of hospitality in the Middle East that go back 3,500 years or more. Those laws of hospitality stayed in Middle East culture even before the founding of the Muslim religion. Even then, this Afghan villager put his life and his family's life on the line for this American who is a complete stranger! I am so happy the USA granted him Asylum status and I hope he's living happily in the USA even though it must be a very strange experience for him? He is certainly a man of character. I would be honored to meet him one day.
Heres a short story to testify to Marcus' character. Last year in May my hometown was ravaged by a tornado that killed people and destroyed hundreds of homes. I own a landscaping company so I have quite a few chain saws and helpers I can call on and help. I was up on a roof clearing east Texas pine trees off of peoples houses when three guys showed up to volunteer work. One of the guys was naturally leading the other two and when they climbed up on the roof, Marcus (I had no idea who he was) climbed up to where I was and ASKED ME, what can we do to help boss? He worked on that roof with me for nearly 5 hours in the Texas heat and then continued to help out all around the neighborhood for the following week. I would have never known who he was until someone in the town recognized him a few days later and posted on fb about it. He never name dropped, no catchy T-shirts, or anything like that. He was truly just heartbroken to see the devastation my town had gone through and came to help. This man has broken his body for our country so I know he was hurting on that roof with me but I would have never known.
As a Muslims I'm very proud of the my brothers and sisters in Afghanistan. They Rescue an enemy of them and put him under their protection and cost them dearly in lives. That's a real Muslim behaviour. Kudos to all of them.
It’s so unfortunate to you and your family/people/faith are always going to be judged and remembered by the extremists that pervert your faith and turn it into a weapon and/or death sentence for many innocent humans. You are just as much a victim as the fallen soldiers killed in combat. I send my condolences and prayers for safety of you and yours
@@sassiwich3491"many innocent humans"??? Guessing ur European. Or a European who took america from natives, u might wna check how much innocents western Europe has massacred. Embarrassed for you.
although everyone shits on joe for being a moron he still has an amazing ability to let his guests talk without interrupting. if you listen to any other podcast the host always try’s to interrupt but joe always has patience.
Luttrell is the definition of a coward, he then turned his back on Gulab, the man who risked his own life to save him, this shows how little Luttrell cares for those around him.
He's talking about his rifle, dropping it, and his boys reminding him he'll need it. He was the only American left on the mountain. His boys had drawn their last breath 24 hours prior. He's talking about it like they were right there by his side with him. That's some heavy shit.
He's talking like his dead brothers are making sure he doesn't leave his rifle behind from the afterlife. There were so many occasions where he is falling down a mountain, rifle out of his hands and somehow when he lands the rifle ends up right by him.
He lied about his encounter, they didn't kill any people. They were successfully ambushed and he hid. He didn't even fire a single shot. This is corroborated by the marines who rescued him. And the man who rescued him.
I was thinking the same thing. That thousand yard stare is very real with him. Can tell some very traumatic happened to him. Don’t even have to know who he is
How horrible… you get to know 3 best friends and then watch them all die and come back home alive. Brave man, I wish you and your family the absolute best.
It was hard just watching the movie. The man is a true Hero, God bless him & his family and everyone who lost their lives & everyone who puts their lives on the line for their fellow man.
What makes it a great interview is Joe wisely stayed silent a a couple seconds and let Marcus gather his thoughts to keep telling his story rather than jumping in.
Hey Marcus, have a big question why did you make a shitty remarks about the Air born when they dropped in and found your team and left no one behind! they were out numbered and stayed strong and got them out!
One more thing if your story is true why would you let them go! WHAT DO WE SAY AND TRAIN FOR JUST FIND AWAY TO WIN WHAT EVER IT TAKES JUST KEEP GOING !! you let the enemy walk away and started a shit show of fight and lost your team! You are a A NAVY SEAL no one would no ! You are a frog man you are gost! Do you ever think of that choice you made TO Let them walk free??
His continued friendship with Mohammed is one of the most beautiful stories I’ve ever heard, and when you hear Marcus talk about this man’s heart it breaks me UP. He put his life, his family’s lives even the villagers were at risk. I’m not sure he had to rescue Marcus from that waterfall I think it was just straight compassion. Amazing. I well up every time I think of it
He sounds like he's on the verge of tears, then his tone breaks out into "bragging" to deflect his feeling of guilt. That choking sound never fully disappears. This dude is *the. real. deal.* As human as they come, having survived one of humanity's greatest challenges.
What gets me though is like he needs a hug like everyday lol he needs two therapists one at breakfast and one at dinner , he needs it all. He’s literally carrying around a rock of upset in his head shit he will ever let go! You see him pause when he starts up a new thought, he is living it all over again In that moment.
@Alex Dane The villager guy who found him said he had all full magazines in his plate carrier and I’ve also seen the Taliban’s footage of the ambush. As blurry as it is, it’s clear enough to be able to tell that Hollywood greatly exaggerated the number of Taliban combatants. Throughout the firefight you can hear the other 3 seals screaming for his help as he was their combat medic, but he had already ran for the hills. Now I’m not necessarily blaming him for doing the smart thing and wanting to avoid his certain death, but he was not a regular joe like me he was a SEAL. The movie portrays his actions as a heroic last stand, fighting and tumbling down a mountain against hundreds of Taliban until the last man, which was not the case. He ran, the real American heroes died on that mountain.
I can also see some confusion, as if he gets lost in his story at some points. It doesn't just flow out and sometimes he seems pretty vague in his answers.
You can tell this man truly is hurt by what he saw. Whether he remembers or doesn’t, adds to the story or doesn’t. This man is hurt and left for dead and came out on top.
The comment he makes about his rifle. “I couldn’t throw that thing away, everytime I’d lose it 1 of my boys would be like, “hey you’re gonna need this”.” That hits hard considering the fact he’s talking about their spirits. That’s amazing.
@@Dinamite4 as soon as he said it, it hit hard. He watched his team/friends die and still knew they were with him helping him survive. Other times he speaks about this situation he says it loud and clear “my boys helped me survive, they were right there with me” not necessarily exact wording but he doesn’t ever claim to have done it alone. Amazing guy.
Watching and listening to this American HERO in his own words, what happened to him, is HEART WRENCHING. Marcus Luttrell, you are beyond brave. GOD BLESS you.
Please look further into this incident and don’t take what people say at face value. Luttrell is a liar and his actions might’ve gotten his team-member Axelson killed. Members of the SOF community have talked about there even being drone footage of Luttrell running away from the firefight (it was his first firefight iirc) and members of his team asking for him to help on the radio, but he ran away. When the Green Berets and Rangers that came to help them out found Marcus, he wasn’t very helpful relaying information back to them to help recover the bodies. He told them they were all dead, but he had no idea if they actually were. From there, the Rangers and Green Berets went on a more slow, methodical approach to the hill instead of rushing up there to potentially save someone who may have actually been alive for days in the woods and wasn’t rescued because his teammate ran away and said he was dead. The Navy took a horrible operation that changed it into a PR stunt to make Luttrell to be the hero. They basically gave him an ultimatum, tell the truth and be exposed for being a coward or lie about what happened and become a millionaire. Now, we know the path he took.
@@stimulatemyexistence5669 so why was Marcus found with all his magazines on him then? Whys there video on RUclips of the actual firefight and you hear his teammates screaming at Marcus? Even the fucking dude who saved him it wasn't upto 200 people but closer to 20 they were fucked the before they even landed in that loud ass chinok
I love how Joe didn’t jump in the gaps where Marcus was pausing. Such a pro move on Joe’s part. Respectful of Marcus’s experience and his way of sharing it...
Think joe knows Marcus is reliving moments of his story as he tells it, the thirst in that moment. The different Memories and feelings as he tells the story must be a trip. Dude strong
This man is a living hero,. I was tearing up every time he would pause and take a deep breath because it was about to make him break down again. Remembering the hell he went through
Don't be fooled. Fuck you. This man has more love. For this country than you use a a pinch line in bullshit drunk bar and walks. Find Peace between them ears Brother. I Pray you do ML. Thank You brother
Luttrell is the definition of a coward, he then turned his back on Gulab, the man who risked his own life to save him, this shows how little Luttrell cares for those around him.
@@norwegiangangsta Yeah with a name like norwegian gangster do you really think anyone gives a fuck what you think, furthemore you're calling him a coward in the comments section on youtube where you're probably going feel validated by random people. Its sad, please stop
@@Ben-lv6tj The militarys own after action reports show this whole retelling/story was a lie. It was only 20-30 Taliban and the SEALs didnt kill a single enemy combatant, evidence also shows Marcus didnt fight at all and ran.
lol God dont bless liars and murderers , what is wrong with you americans ? God never bless america because they killed so many innocent people in this world..
@@th3realjorel he ran away while his team mates were wounded and captured and executed by heroic taliban fighters. all dead SEAL have execution style headwound at close range
I thought exactly the same thing. Usually when someone pauses like he did Joe will comment. He didn’t in this interview and I appreciated why he didn’t.
did you ever listen to the nine-one-one call when he came back he's been out for a while and somebody drove by and they killed his dog. And he was chasing them through the counties.and the 911 operator was like okay could you back off you guys know they killed my dog. It was like John wick before John wick
@@barrykitchen8200 I believe the inspiration for the John wick movie was based on that. I read that somewhere so don’t quote me on it but I’m pretty sure John wick was based off that 911 call
@Blulos Look it up 🤦 He the only one that lived that can say what happened so let that sink in for a minute. What I know that surrounds this operation, I can tell u that u know nothing besides what u think u know from reading something that someone wrote that wasn’t there 🤷🏻♂️ we call people like you sheepy sheep 😁
I saw Marcus talk about his experience live maybe some 12 odd years ago, i watched the film, but hearing Marcus himself talk about the nightmare he lived still sticks with me to this day. 12+ years after.
He's handling it good, He's a strong mofo, I don't even talk about a couple car wrecks I've been involved in because I get wigged out. I can look up to this mans strength.
He has PTSD but him stopping is not because of it. When he stops he is recalling what happened and finding the words to describe how he was feeling and thinking while telling his story. I've watched people behave the same way when telling a story about something good that happened to them and they stop, think and find the words to describe what they were feeling while telling their story.
I like how Joe just let’s him talk and doesn’t interrupt him at all . Edit: I like how people read this comment and gave it a thumbs up . Thanks for the likes 🤗
God Bless this man. I know he has been through much, but he had me laughing when he said he never knew what to do. All that training and he never knew what to do. We all are simply human. But he did know what to do because he made it home alive. God Bless him.
The way he says "you know the way you can smell death when it's there?" As though it's something everyone can relate to chills my bones. This man has seen and done things your average man has nightmares about.
Its not the smell of the air as much as like, the stench if your own panic… if you’ve ever been fearful for your life, or trying to kill someone.. you can almost smell the animal coming out of you.
The people that saved this man are Pushto people. They have an ancient code that says if they befriend you as a foreigner to the land, regardless of your religion or culture, they will protect you to the death against anyone. They have the heart of lions, and are not afraid of death. This is why many armies have tried to conquer these lands and have failed countless times. Proud to be a Pathan for this reason. Bless this man for at least touching upon this fact in the movie and educating the masses that not all of us are bad people.
Probably trying to think how to keep his phony story consistent, Mohammad the guy who saved him pretty much has called him a coward who hadn’t even fired a shot saying he had 11 full magazines on him and other stuff that blatantly contradicts his story. I’m sorry but I believe the guy that has no financial gain from lying and is the only reason this guys alive in the first place that he backstabbed and doesn’t even talk to him now.
I find it chilling when Luttrell says, "Haven't thought about that in a long time." Just the tone...you can tell he isn't talking about a birthday party
@Victor Palacios understating can be powerful. For me the comparison to a memory about a birthday party helped clarify the vast chasm that separates many people's common reality with Marcus's.
I don't think this man is who you think he is. There's evidence that he was found with 11 mags still on his kit when he was found and video evidence of his teammates yelling for him to help. The video also only shows around 7 or 8 enemy combatants. Also the Afghan guy who saved him, Gulab, was quoted as saying the real story is nothing like what they portrayed in the movie.
There are no words only emotions. I have listen and watched Marcus, his brother, and fellow military brothers for years. I have huge respect for him and all military personnel. I served as a LEO for 30 years. Before retirement 1.5 years ago. Thank you for your service and surviving.
I like that Joe let him have them moments of reflection, didn't keep asking him anything or interrupt him. Powerful emotions going through him right there, this was truly Powerful JRE.
Man we can’t even comprehend the PTSD this guy experiences everyday. You can see the flashbacks with each pause while he speaks. Thank you for your service 🇺🇸
Im crying listening to this warrior. Hard to see a bug man get choked up like that. His story is just unbelievable like he had someone watching over him. He did so much good in life that his good deeds paid over his debt and death couldnt take him
My father is a veteran he did 19 years in the Navy and he's trying to get ahold of a 91 Sportster motorcycle to make into a Memorial bike. He watched 195 Marines get blown to Hell and Back Again over in Beirut Lebanon. The only reason why I'm even commenting this is because I saw the Harley-Davidson tagging your name. Maybe you can point me in the right direction
You are Awsome for understanding what your hubby went through. Hero’s….. yes they are but it’s the last thing they want to hear as some of there mates didn’t come home. I really respect you for caring Jessica your man is in good hands. Tyrone be at peace my brother.
@@johnnylevitz4310 yea. it became clear to me when he was talking about Gulab and the shampoo story, then kept asking "I don't know why I didn't kill him." The way he asks it. The glass of liquor he had in front of him was probs the only reason he got as detailed as he did.
I got choked up listening to him...especially when he said about being thirsty and how he hadn't thought about this for a while... SHEESH!! MUCH RESPECT BRO, from one service member to another. Nothing but respect
Sorry for the loss of your brothers, but glad to have you alive wish all could of came back alive. As a navy vet or even as a civilian thank you sir for your service and dedication to America. We love you brother!!
This guys story is bs. You domt believe me google it or look on reddit. He ran away thats why he survived. Theres footage of the firefight it wasnt even long and were only 8 people and you cam hear his friends calling for him for help. His whole story is bullshit
It’s almost like he’s speaking a foreign language or something. In which you’re relatively familiar with and identify with. Yet, still highly ignorant of and in the dark about.
He’s trying to recall the lies that have been spun. He’s a hero from other missions I’m sure but this total fuck up of a mission he cowardly left his friends to die and it was covered up
@@ratty2012 No, this is the most likely truth based on hours cross referencing all available information from credible witnesses in the public sphere. Military professionals who visited the site made many of these points but were silenced, also accounts from the villager who saved him. Accounts from all the villagers who heard the drop also. Finally, actually watching the unedited footage the Taliban filmed while killing the team. If you want specific example of something ask me. The only point which is debatable is the 11 magazines, maybe he had less and the villagers exaggerated but he certainly had many many clips left. Also, this is taken from the only consistent points in Marcus story that haven’t changed over times. There’s so much more I haven’t even included, I hoped it would be just enough to make people bother to look into it themselves. But no, cos ‘Fuck yee America is the best’ attitude and the media spoonfeeding makes people gullible and stupid
Yeah, he’s staring off into the distance. Remembering. Reliving it. I bet he remembers what it smelled like. He looks as though he’s almost brought to tears more than once. Powerful stuff
Marcus had 11 wounds that were through and through. He suffered a broken pelvis and a broken back. He bit his tongue in half. He had countless other lacerations and injuries. That is verifiable. To live through that alone gets all my respect.
@@PlastiForge I'm sure his experience, while having 22 bullets and shrapnel wounds, a broken back and pelvis, half a tongue and numerous lacerations, was probably different than that of the guys that rescued him. After 19 other soldiers were killed and he had crawled 7 miles with that broken back, pelvis, 22 wounds, half of a tongue and other lacerations I am sure his point of view was different.
@@tuckthefide74 go to Google and type in “marcus luttrell reddit” there’s a post titled “daily reminder that lone survivor marcus luttrell is a liar and an enormous sack of shit”
And then read some of that. There is even conflicting reports with video and photo of Marcus at the time of capture where he is fully clothed and all his mag pouches are completely full. Reports of very little spent brass casings too.
I love how Joe let's people tell their story uninterrupted. He's so respectful, esp about a story like this one. He asks questions that are necessary only. I love Joe Rogan man. My fav dude in the world when it comes to this stuff.
When Marcus is talking about how thirsty he was while crawling along the ridgeline, he pauses. You can tell he went right back to that moment as if it happened yesterday. Damn
You could seriously see it when he went back to thinking how God damn thirsty he was, just zoned out for a second and went straight back, so heart-wrenching to see.
@@HitzThaDon The podcast was cut short too. He went for a piss and it was the usual part where Joe was like "Go pee I'll talk to Jamie" and it ended. I assumed he might have had enough of remembering it all in extreme detail and just decided to end it there.
yep, I could see myself in him as he would cut in and out of the story, getting lost in details, etc. It's a frightening sensation. Too much for me to listen to the whole episode. God bless everyone who's suffering from it.
That was incredible to listen to. I hope that was cathartic for Marcus, it is unimaginable and inconceivable. Thank you Mr. Luttell. Thanks to JRE for sharing on his platform.
You realize he lied about everything right? Stop believing the media and Hollywood! They lied and you ate it ate up. We wonder how we got to where we are at in the world. It's gullibility that's why.
Thanks a lot for this episode. If you guys loved it too, I would recommend everybody to check what hell Mohammad Gulab had to go through after saving Luttrell. He and his family got attacked several times. To my actual knowledge he got shot at least 2 times in 10 years. One time he and his wife had to fight off taliban forces with assault rifles in front of their house. One of his nephews got shot in the head. He lost family members, his company in Afghanistan (destroyed by taliban), his land and his home land. And even to the end he defended his actions. Folks please check his side of the story too, especially the part how he got to america and the difficulties, for me personally beyond imagination. Luttrett talked about a rough week (which must have been death for most of us), but for Gulab and his family the hell continued for at least a decade or so. For me it was heart breaking to read. This Family is special. Really special.
I would love to see a movie at least as good as Lone Survivor, but showing everything throughout Gulab's perspective. We never get to know what it's like for these mountain men
@Achraf h it was a little bit more complicated than that. If I got it correctly there were also misunderstandings due to language barrier and maybe wrong translations. In the end it became a burocratic nightmare. If you like to dig deeper I would recommend you to check the perspective of Wilder, his attorney, who fighted for Gulab without payment.
@@bromidrosis3238 Crazy to me that anyone supports the US during our occupations in the Middle East to the point of getting their family members killed, we don't even treat our own soldiers right let alone the people fighting for us
I love that joe sat and gave this man the complete opportunity to talk and to tell the story. No constant interruptions and giving the respect that’s due
Luttrell is the definition of a coward, he then turned his back on Gulab, the man who risked his own life to save him, this shows how little Luttrell cares for those around him.
Hits more when he said Matt was shot in the head , and didn’t have any eyes . And yet still he was still willing to fight , to not give up on his brothers .. crazy. RIP
Damn when he started talking to joe like joe was the rangers who came to save him...”when y’all came I couldn’t believe it” I had frickin goosebumps...
That really stuck with me. The way I took it was that he was referring to “ya’ll” as the country/people of America, and Joe being in front of him as a representative of us, i.e. Americans/America.
@@literallyshaking8019 Bingo, and he always tells it like that too. When he told the story in front of a congregation shortly after he was home it was pretty powerful. It’s on RUclips.
You are all witnessing PTSD in real-time. An incredibly powerful moment that no movie could ever reproduce. Thank you Mr. Luttrell for sharing this story, how you can relive this horrible event, stay composed, and tell the world on a podcast is beyond my comprehension.
@@clickt8813 yea mate I understand that would be the case for sure , incredible strength to get through the day , that’d leave some massive scars seein what he seen
@Pter Griffin yea mate sometimes I can’t sleep cos I overthink , most of the time about getting my jobs finished , so that’s why I said “how does he sleep at night” seeing I can’t sleep over thinking and here is this guy , having gone through what he has , my problems aren’t problems
He said at one point “we all died”. Was hoping Joe would have asked if he felt a piece of him died with them. Everyone knows the answer but to hear him speak it would be legendary.
God gave me these four steps via divine revelation. He said anyone who does all four are guaranteed a divine revelation of their own. They are the mustard seed of Faith, the bare minimum amount of effort he's willing to accept before he reveals himself to you personally. Believe or not, do for yourself and see. Forgive your parents, break down before Jesus, ask for forgiveness, and read the Bible. There's deep spiritual significance in these steps. Every one is important, and it's the least God accepts. Three books of the bible will be enough for the revelation. I recommend Genesis, Mathew, and then either Luke, Psalms, or proverbs. I'm not talking about signs, feelings, etc, but am honest to goodness one on one conversation with God. An actual meeting. Unmistakable, and unable to be misinterpretaed. He told me that he's guaranteed the steps to work 100%. You just need to do them guininly. It's not hard. Do those steps in that order please. It's all True. I promise.
He sure as fuck did and he'll tell you himself. The lucky one, the unlucky one. He sure as hell did. Fuck though, "one hell of a week" for a man who trained in hell for most, and regularly survived in hell for all (hot sand, hot sky), too say one hell of a week... to say that was hell. I'm a doubter. I don't doubt that.
Damn this guy's story is wild, he deserves some good compensation for living through that. It's definitely something that would, be hard to imagine surviving for sure. These types of stories hit close to, home for me having family who served in the military. I didn't serve but I most certainly, would like to thank all service members who did, as I appreciate what they went through to protect our way of life, in the country and they should all get better treatment than what they're receiving from our government.
When he stops, stares and says “man I haven’t thought about that in a while” you know he’s seen and is thinking of stuff most of us will never be able to comprehend
Marcus Luttrell is a good man. You can still tell how much this event fucked his head up. Its still extremely real for him when he has to recollect it. Nothing but prayers for him, his family, and the families of all the fallen heroes of that operation.
As a survivor of trauma of the very worst kind, I was right there in his skin with him when he was talking. PTSD is so lied about these days the ones that really have it can see it instantly.
a true warrior spirit......much respect for your service!!!!! sharing your story must have been hard to speak about but it will inspire and teach others so thank yoy!!!!!
I wish, the guy who saved him isn’t even on speaking terms with him and hasn’t heard a word from him in years. He’s a fraud. popularmilitary.com/marines-and-afghan-who-saved-marcus-luttrell-say-lone-survivor-was-lie/
@Chris La PointeMaking what up? Did you read the article? No possible way they faced 80-200 enemy combatants. He said the correct number right after the even and it kept climbing as the months went on. 10-20 enemy isn’t good for books or movies. Not gonna spoon feed you but this guy is making money off false claims and 19 dead service members. It’s sick.
You can tell he'll never be the same again. He went through one of the most insane experiences a human could ever go through and survived. Fuckin warrior.
He’s good at avoiding questions, pretending he didn’t hear a question being asked, going on and on speaking while not asking the original question. He’s still in military mode.
even tho I watched the movie and read all of the articles about him, I just cant even comprehend what this man has gone through. I had to stop watching this episode many many times. God bless this man and give him strength to continue being a badass
It’s worth knowing that Mohammad Gulab, the man who saved Marcus, managed to escape the Taliban and is living somewhere free from the Taliban’s grasp. That man put his entire family in danger for helping a foreigner, much respect to him
He lives in Texas with his 12 children. He's a great dude.
@@echoromeo384 damn 12 children.... That's a rarity nowadays

I do not have military experience, but having a degree in theology leads me to the story of Sodom and Gomorrah and and the story of Lot and his family. Many are confused as to why Lot would offer his daughters to the evil crowd? And he also offered sleeping quarters for the Angels.( he probably was not aware they were Angels at the time?) Anyway, my point of the story is, that this is part of the laws of hospitality in the Middle East that go back 3,500 years or more. Those laws of hospitality stayed in Middle East culture even before the founding of the Muslim religion. Even then, this Afghan villager put his life and his family's life on the line for this American who is a complete stranger! I am so happy the USA granted him Asylum status and I hope he's living happily in the USA even though it must be a very strange experience for him? He is certainly a man of character. I would be honored to meet him one day.

Heres a short story to testify to Marcus' character. Last year in May my hometown was ravaged by a tornado that killed people and destroyed hundreds of homes. I own a landscaping company so I have quite a few chain saws and helpers I can call on and help. I was up on a roof clearing east Texas pine trees off of peoples houses when three guys showed up to volunteer work. One of the guys was naturally leading the other two and when they climbed up on the roof, Marcus (I had no idea who he was) climbed up to where I was and ASKED ME, what can we do to help boss? He worked on that roof with me for nearly 5 hours in the Texas heat and then continued to help out all around the neighborhood for the following week. I would have never known who he was until someone in the town recognized him a few days later and posted on fb about it. He never name dropped, no catchy T-shirts, or anything like that. He was truly just heartbroken to see the devastation my town had gone through and came to help. This man has broken his body for our country so I know he was hurting on that roof with me but I would have never known.

I've seen some interviews where he seems so uncomfortable and it's obvious to the point where I start squirming and want to look away

Surprised a positive Joe comment is getting likes, thought it was only ppl who complain about spotify

Facts
You can see how much it affects Marcus silently. His facial expressions depict him remember horror. Military serviceman and woman are amazing ❤
Luttrell is the definition of a coward, he then turned his back on Gulab, the man who risked his own life to save him, this shows how little Luttrell cares for those around him.

Does it upset you because it’s all bullshit?
Anyone want to talk about his mags being full when he was pulled out? That's a fact.

@@15Kilo bootlicking a fraud, its pretty funny actually
He's talking about his rifle, dropping it, and his boys reminding him he'll need it. He was the only American left on the mountain. His boys had drawn their last breath 24 hours prior. He's talking about it like they were right there by his side with him. That's some heavy shit.
He's talking like his dead brothers are making sure he doesn't leave his rifle behind from the afterlife. There were so many occasions where he is falling down a mountain, rifle out of his hands and somehow when he lands the rifle ends up right by him.
Check out Claydice comment just below....see how he explained...
He lied about his encounter, they didn't kill any people. They were successfully ambushed and he hid. He didn't even fire a single shot. This is corroborated by the marines who rescued him.
And the man who rescued him.
Look at 9:48 watch the bottle move by itself on the table...crazy
@@TENNESSEETV. yo wtf
You can literally see the ptsd in action when he speaks. It's actually very sad.
I was thinking the same thing. That thousand yard stare is very real with him. Can tell some very traumatic happened to him. Don’t even have to know who he is
Those eyes speak 1000 words
Stunned 😯 by his own memories
Facts
Yes, yes, yes! You can see it in his face, he was reliving it.
How horrible… you get to know 3 best friends and then watch them all die and come back home alive. Brave man, I wish you and your family the absolute best.
It was hard just watching the movie. The man is a true Hero, God bless him & his family and everyone who lost their lives & everyone who puts their lives on the line for their fellow man.
What makes it a great interview is Joe wisely stayed silent a a couple seconds and let Marcus gather his thoughts to keep telling his story rather than jumping in.
Absolutely!
Doesn’t get better than Rogan most guys just talk to damn much
Thank God it wasn’t Howard Stern interviewing Marcus
Exactly, no leading questions.
Joe Rogan has really improved as an interviewer, one used to get the sense that the show was all about him but things are 100% better.
The way he occasionally stops and stares off, pauses in the middle of his story, you can he is reliving his experience vividly.
thats called PTSD and you get these flashbacks where you can sense and smell even, what you have experienced at that momment
@@MelancholyRhyme it is true PTSD. I feel like the general public over-uses that term a lot, but in cases like Marcus it's true.
@@Clint_Yeetwood bro it’s not a competition lol
@@plshelpmeawkdough what?...
Or he's making it up.
Love you Marcus. Props to Joe for letting the silent moments happen. I felt this whole thing.
America has to protect its soldiers
Hey Marcus, have a big question why did you make a shitty remarks about the Air born when they dropped in and found your team and left no one behind! they were out numbered and stayed strong and got them out!
One more thing if your story is true why would you let them go! WHAT DO WE SAY AND TRAIN FOR JUST FIND AWAY TO WIN WHAT EVER IT TAKES JUST KEEP GOING !! you let the enemy walk away and started a shit show of fight and lost your team! You are a A NAVY SEAL no one would no ! You are a frog man you are gost! Do you ever think of that choice you made TO Let them walk free??
@@sexyHandsomedogthis is ignorant asf
His continued friendship with Mohammed is one of the most beautiful stories I’ve ever heard, and when you hear Marcus talk about this man’s heart it breaks me UP. He put his life, his family’s lives even the villagers were at risk. I’m not sure he had to rescue Marcus from that waterfall I think it was just straight compassion. Amazing. I well up every time I think of it
He sounds like he's on the verge of tears, then his tone breaks out into "bragging" to deflect his feeling of guilt. That choking sound never fully disappears. This dude is *the. real. deal.* As human as they come, having survived one of humanity's greatest challenges.
So true
Quit trying to psycho analyze like you understand every feeling he is having, just listen man.
@@Anehab100 wow. Your comment was even more useless than the one I left when I was drunk on a Monday night.
What gets me though is like he needs a hug like everyday lol he needs two therapists one at breakfast and one at dinner , he needs it all. He’s literally carrying around a rock of upset in his head shit he will ever let go! You see him pause when he starts up a new thought, he is living it all over again In that moment.
@@alec6583 Lol.
as a veteran myself, i can see the damage in this mans soul, but i also see the strength. true patriot..
Gosh, I was just thinking that. He is so damaged. 🥺
All I can think when I see his eyes is how she’ll shocked this poor guy is.
This guy left his friends to die and ran
@Alex Dane The villager guy who found him said he had all full magazines in his plate carrier and I’ve also seen the Taliban’s footage of the ambush. As blurry as it is, it’s clear enough to be able to tell that Hollywood greatly exaggerated the number of Taliban combatants. Throughout the firefight you can hear the other 3 seals screaming for his help as he was their combat medic, but he had already ran for the hills. Now I’m not necessarily blaming him for doing the smart thing and wanting to avoid his certain death, but he was not a regular joe like me he was a SEAL. The movie portrays his actions as a heroic last stand, fighting and tumbling down a mountain against hundreds of Taliban until the last man, which was not the case. He ran, the real American heroes died on that mountain.
I can also see some confusion, as if he gets lost in his story at some points. It doesn't just flow out and sometimes he seems pretty vague in his answers.
You can tell this man truly is hurt by what he saw. Whether he remembers or doesn’t, adds to the story or doesn’t. This man is hurt and left for dead and came out on top.
He also ran and never fired his weapon and left his team to die…
The comment he makes about his rifle. “I couldn’t throw that thing away, everytime I’d lose it 1 of my boys would be like, “hey you’re gonna need this”.” That hits hard considering the fact he’s talking about their spirits. That’s amazing.
this!
Wow I didn’t even realize this when he first said it but it makes so much more sense, and I love it even more now
@@Dinamite4 as soon as he said it, it hit hard. He watched his team/friends die and still knew they were with him helping him survive. Other times he speaks about this situation he says it loud and clear “my boys helped me survive, they were right there with me” not necessarily exact wording but he doesn’t ever claim to have done it alone. Amazing guy.

Dan Brazilian wants to be this guy so bad
Luttrell is a phoney and a liar. Fact
Even rougher than Rodney Dangerfield rough. May he rest in peace.
Mohammad pretty much disputes everything he’s said lol pretty much calling him a coward
Watching and listening to this American HERO in his own words, what happened to him, is HEART WRENCHING. Marcus Luttrell, you are beyond brave. GOD BLESS you.
Please look further into this incident and don’t take what people say at face value. Luttrell is a liar and his actions might’ve gotten his team-member Axelson killed. Members of the SOF community have talked about there even being drone footage of Luttrell running away from the firefight (it was his first firefight iirc) and members of his team asking for him to help on the radio, but he ran away.
When the Green Berets and Rangers that came to help them out found Marcus, he wasn’t very helpful relaying information back to them to help recover the bodies. He told them they were all dead, but he had no idea if they actually were. From there, the Rangers and Green Berets went on a more slow, methodical approach to the hill instead of rushing up there to potentially save someone who may have actually been alive for days in the woods and wasn’t rescued because his teammate ran away and said he was dead.
The Navy took a horrible operation that changed it into a PR stunt to make Luttrell to be the hero. They basically gave him an ultimatum, tell the truth and be exposed for being a coward or lie about what happened and become a millionaire. Now, we know the path he took.
Thank you for your continued support of your veterans. This man is a hero whether he likes it or not.
It breaks my heart seeing this man pause and gather himself enough to tell the story. This guy is broken mentally from it but also very strong.
broken from lying maybe

I'm so glad he gave him that respect, now I can have respect for Joe.
Followed by a huge collective "whooooooaaa" or "wowwwww" everytime is how you know joe loved it lol
I noticed that too, He normally has something to say lol or get Jamie to pull some shit up
That's the reason I watch it. On a TV show they cut them off constantly.
I thought exactly the same thing. Usually when someone pauses like he did Joe will comment. He didn’t in this interview and I appreciated why he didn’t.
Marcus was about to cry talking about this. He had to break that sadness quick. His toughness is second to none. So proud of you, brother!
did you ever listen to the nine-one-one call when he came back he's been out for a while and somebody drove by and they killed his dog. And he was chasing them through the counties.and the 911 operator was like okay could you back off you guys know they killed my dog. It was like John wick before John wick

It’s both scary and sad at the same time, the moment he remembered the thirst and paused that was crazy.
He's handling it good, He's a strong mofo, I don't even talk about a couple car wrecks I've been involved in because I get wigged out. I can look up to this mans strength.
That’s what I thought too. It seemed like he was back in Afghanistan for a second and not here.
He has PTSD but him stopping is not because of it. When he stops he is recalling what happened and finding the words to describe how he was feeling and thinking while telling his story. I've watched people behave the same way when telling a story about something good that happened to them and they stop, think and find the words to describe what they were feeling while telling their story.
I like how Joe just let’s him talk and doesn’t interrupt him at all .
Edit: I like how people read this comment and gave it a thumbs up .

The way he says "you know the way you can smell death when it's there?" As though it's something everyone can relate to chills my bones. This man has seen and done things your average man has nightmares about.
When it’s been there long enough, it smells sweet with a touch of cinnamon or clove. . . The more you know!
I don’t think we have the frame reference necessary to have those kinds of nightmares man!
Its not the smell of the air as much as like, the stench if your own panic… if you’ve ever been fearful for your life, or trying to kill someone.. you can almost smell the animal coming out of you.
A lot of crazy shit happens during war. Some so terrifying you can't explain it with words.
You can tell war fuck him all up just by looking at him talk.

Its so graceful to hear him telling us his story and laugh about about. He went through death and survive.
Nope its all bullshit and bro is on a press tour selling lies and propaganda
The people that saved this man are Pushto people. They have an ancient code that says if they befriend you as a foreigner to the land, regardless of your religion or culture, they will protect you to the death against anyone. They have the heart of lions, and are not afraid of death. This is why many armies have tried to conquer these lands and have failed countless times. Proud to be a Pathan for this reason. Bless this man for at least touching upon this fact in the movie and educating the masses that not all of us are bad people.

I find it chilling when Luttrell says, "Haven't thought about that in a long time." Just the tone...you can tell he isn't talking about a birthday party

@@ratty2012 No, this is the most likely truth based on hours cross referencing all available information from credible witnesses in the public sphere.

Finally, actually watching the unedited footage the Taliban filmed while killing the team. If you want specific example of something ask me. The only point which is debatable is the 11 magazines, maybe he had less and the villagers exaggerated but he certainly had many many clips left. Also, this is taken from the only consistent points in Marcus story that haven’t changed over times. There’s so much more I haven’t even included, I hoped it would be just enough to make people bother to look into it themselves.

I love how Joe let's people tell their story uninterrupted. He's so respectful, esp about a story like this one. He asks questions that are necessary only. I love Joe Rogan man. My fav dude in the world when it comes to this stuff.
When Marcus is talking about how thirsty he was while crawling along the ridgeline, he pauses. You can tell he went right back to that moment as if it happened yesterday. Damn
I noticed it too
He was totally reliving it
this dude is tougher than 99.9% of human beings
this dude is tougher than 99.9% of human beings
Listening and watching him tell the story is better than the movie for me. That shit is real.
This guy has serious PTSD and i'm not surprised. Looks like he has it well controlled though, absolute hero
You could seriously see it when he went back to thinking how God damn thirsty he was, just zoned out for a second and went straight back, so heart-wrenching to see.
@@HitzThaDon The podcast was cut short too. He went for a piss and it was the usual part where Joe was like "Go pee I'll talk to Jamie" and it ended.
I assumed he might have had enough of remembering it all in extreme detail and just decided to end it there.
joe gotta fix the ending of this podcast; Left on a cliffhanger?
yep, I could see myself in him as he would cut in and out of the story, getting lost in details, etc. It's a frightening sensation. Too much for me to listen to the whole episode. God bless everyone who's suffering from it.
I mean... he’s literally been convicted as a liar..
That was incredible to listen to. I hope that was cathartic for Marcus, it is unimaginable and inconceivable. Thank you Mr. Luttell. Thanks to JRE for sharing on his platform.
This man and his courage and story is the most amazingly humble but fierce man I’ve ever seen and heard speak. Mad respect. I love this guy
You realize he lied about everything right? Stop believing the media and Hollywood! They lied and you ate it ate up. We wonder how we got to where we are at in the world. It's gullibility that's why.
Thanks a lot for this episode. If you guys loved it too, I would recommend everybody to check what hell Mohammad Gulab had to go through after saving Luttrell. He and his family got attacked several times. To my actual knowledge he got shot at least 2 times in 10 years. One time he and his wife had to fight off taliban forces with assault rifles in front of their house. One of his nephews got shot in the head. He lost family members, his company in Afghanistan (destroyed by taliban), his land and his home land. And even to the end he defended his actions. Folks please check his side of the story too, especially the part how he got to america and the difficulties, for me personally beyond imagination. Luttrett talked about a rough week (which must have been death for most of us), but for Gulab and his family the hell continued for at least a decade or so. For me it was heart breaking to read. This Family is special. Really special.
I would love to see a movie at least as good as Lone Survivor, but showing everything throughout Gulab's perspective. We never get to know what it's like for these mountain men
@Achraf h it was a little bit more complicated than that. If I got it correctly there were also misunderstandings due to language barrier and maybe wrong translations. In the end it became a burocratic nightmare. If you like to dig deeper I would recommend you to check the perspective of Wilder, his attorney, who fighted for Gulab without payment.
Crazy how the USA couldn’t compensate for their bravery.... insane
Thank you , I always wondered how that would have ended for that mans family,etc. I will take your advice. He really was a Godsend.
@@bromidrosis3238 Crazy to me that anyone supports the US during our occupations in the Middle East to the point of getting their family members killed, we don't even treat our own soldiers right let alone the people fighting for us
I love that joe sat and gave this man the complete opportunity to talk and to tell the story. No constant interruptions and giving the respect that’s due
*Neil degrass tyson getting ready to interrupt every word*
Luttrell is the definition of a coward, he then turned his back on Gulab, the man who risked his own life to save him, this shows how little Luttrell cares for those around him.
@@norwegiangangstaare you alright in the head. Have a look into that
I think that’s what makes Joe a great interviewer. He doesn’t interrupt.
@@norwegiangangstayour clueless troll, kick rocks.
Hits more when he said Matt was shot in the head , and didn’t have any eyes . And yet still he was still willing to fight , to not give up on his brothers .. crazy. RIP
This man is a true hero, not just for what he’s been thru but what he carries today, and still so positive and appreciative. I would love to meet him
He's a liar
he aint no hero hes coward
@@smoothcriminal7118go to afghanistan and come back then.
Damn when he started talking to joe like joe was the rangers who came to save him...”when y’all came I couldn’t believe it” I had frickin goosebumps...
And then he changes to something funny, it’s still hurts to think or talk about it.
Never ending respect for Mr Luttrell.
That really stuck with me. The way I took it was that he was referring to “ya’ll” as the country/people of America, and Joe being in front of him as a representative of us, i.e. Americans/America.
Reliving the story as he tells it
@@literallyshaking8019 Bingo, and he always tells it like that too. When he told the story in front of a congregation shortly after he was home it was pretty powerful. It’s on RUclips.

The things Mark and men like him have done and continue to do for us is nothing short of astounding and the dictionary definition of awesome
It's an amazing story. I was so proud of you and your fellow Patriots.They will never be forgotten!
You are all witnessing PTSD in real-time. An incredibly powerful moment that no movie could ever reproduce. Thank you Mr. Luttrell for sharing this story, how you can relive this horrible event, stay composed, and tell the world on a podcast is beyond my comprehension.
I found it interesting how he said “ and then y’all came to get me, you remember that?” Like Joe was saving him.
@@jackanderson6100 yes, he had a couple of flashbacks during that talk.
ptsd…..I know it well….it’s Horrible…..God Blessed you Marcus❤️🇺🇸🙏
@UNSUNG ARMORY ooh rah Brother i’m a hurting devildog too …let’s Press on the best We can….God Bless ❤️🇺🇸💯🎤
@@truthfulpatriot9129 no silly speeches here.. i just appreciate you guys that lived this! 👍
There’s a moment you can see true horror in his eyes when he’s talking about how damaged his friends were. That’s real ptsd. These guys are heroes.
I don’t know how this man sleeps at night , he deserves nothing but respect , he’s a special human to go through what he did .
ruclips.net/video/mFQTmiioYnQ/видео.html :)
Believe he said before he doesn’t sleep much because of his PTSD or his past.
@@clickt8813 yea mate I understand that would be the case for sure , incredible strength to get through the day , that’d leave some massive scars seein what he seen
@Pter Griffin yea mate sometimes I can’t sleep cos I overthink , most of the time about getting my jobs finished , so that’s why I said “how does he sleep at night” seeing I can’t sleep over thinking and here is this guy , having gone through what he has , my problems aren’t problems

@Hai Boai no
Did you just give yourself goosebumps?
He said at one point “we all died”. Was hoping Joe would have asked if he felt a piece of him died with them. Everyone knows the answer but to hear him speak it would be legendary.
God gave me these four steps via divine revelation. He said anyone who does all four are guaranteed a divine revelation of their own. They are the mustard seed of Faith, the bare minimum amount of effort he's willing to accept before he reveals himself to you personally. Believe or not, do for yourself and see. Forgive your parents, break down before Jesus, ask for forgiveness, and read the Bible. There's deep spiritual significance in these steps. Every one is important, and it's the least God accepts. Three books of the bible will be enough for the revelation. I recommend Genesis, Mathew, and then either Luke, Psalms, or proverbs. I'm not talking about signs, feelings, etc, but am honest to goodness one on one conversation with God. An actual meeting. Unmistakable, and unable to be misinterpretaed. He told me that he's guaranteed the steps to work 100%. You just need to do them guininly. It's not hard. Do those steps in that order please. It's all True. I promise.
He sure as fuck did and he'll tell you himself. The lucky one, the unlucky one. He sure as hell did. Fuck though, "one hell of a week" for a man who trained in hell for most, and regularly survived in hell for all (hot sand, hot sky), too say one hell of a week... to say that was hell. I'm a doubter. I don't doubt that.
Damn this guy's story is wild, he deserves some good compensation for living through that. It's definitely something that would, be hard to imagine surviving for sure. These types of stories hit close to, home for me having family who served in the military. I didn't serve but I most certainly, would like to thank all service members who did, as I appreciate what they went through to protect our way of life, in the country and they should all get better treatment than what they're receiving from our government.
Wow. You can hear and see the pain in thus guy. Hero
When he stops, stares and says “man I haven’t thought about that in a while” you know he’s seen and is thinking of stuff most of us will never be able to comprehend
Marcus Luttrell is a good man. You can still tell how much this event fucked his head up. Its still extremely real for him when he has to recollect it. Nothing but prayers for him, his family, and the families of all the fallen heroes of that operation.
Operation Red Wings
You think about it every second...you can’t shut it off you have to figure out how to make it a conducive part of your life
As a survivor of trauma of the very worst kind, I was right there in his skin with him when he was talking. PTSD is so lied about these days the ones that really have it can see it instantly.
“If I’d known that Marcus was such a dishonorable person,” he says, “I would not have come to America.”
@Eduardo Babyhands dude he was found as a prisoner. He wouldn't have had his gun or his ammunition as a prisoner.
a true warrior spirit......much respect for your service!!!!! sharing your story must have been hard to speak about but it will inspire and teach others so thank yoy!!!!!
Massive balls and fortitude. US NAVY FMS SERE RECON CORPSMAN HERE. Nothin but love brother 💙
The fact he’s worried about being selfish during a time like this shows his character
I wish, the guy who saved him isn’t even on speaking terms with him and hasn’t heard a word from him in years. He’s a fraud. popularmilitary.com/marines-and-afghan-who-saved-marcus-luttrell-say-lone-survivor-was-lie/
Yet he pimps the story out for 15+ years
@Chris La PointeMaking what up? Did you read the article? No possible way they faced 80-200 enemy combatants. He said the correct number right after the even and it kept climbing as the months went on. 10-20 enemy isn’t good for books or movies. Not gonna spoon feed you but this guy is making money off false claims and 19 dead service members. It’s sick.
@@brad3203 and that he had all 11 of his magazines when found by Gulab.
@@destructophil3502 yep, he said he went through his ammo. Doesn’t appear that way at all.
You can tell he'll never be the same again. He went through one of the most insane experiences a human could ever go through and survived. Fuckin warrior.
yeah, but the movie is horse shit..
@@rockade2408 it’s Hollywood, get over it
Read his book. It’s so crazy. There’s no wonder he’ll never be the same.
@@rockade2408
His story has a lot of holes in it. I know I know a Seal telling load of bull crap is just totally unheard of.
@@axt2 What do you mean a lot of holes in it?
He’s good at avoiding questions, pretending he didn’t hear a question being asked, going on and on speaking while not asking the original question. He’s still in military mode.
even tho I watched the movie and read all of the articles about him, I just cant even comprehend what this man has gone through. I had to stop watching this episode many many times. God bless this man and give him strength to continue being a badass
