I'm puzzled, because how does one crash a helicopter into your house without being alerted to it
Well it's a well-made story I suppose@@grub-g1j

the biggest unsolved mystery is, when bin laden plays counter strike, does he play as the counter-terrorist or the terrorist?
Probably counter terrorist because he plays terrorist irl

@ I’d like to think someone out there killed Bin Laden in csgo and will never know, but the compound doesn’t have internet.😭
How do you crash a helicopter in someone's front yard without alerting the whole place?
yeah im thinking the same, it sounds crazy even without it crashing, helis are loud
*Maybe they used new technology in aircraft’s or things we “don’t know” about and just claim them “regular helicopters”. There’s no way they can crash a helicopter and nobody hear it or anything. It just doesn’t add up.*
@@13wg25 I do belive they killled Bin Laden but I find it hard to believe that they managed to develop a completely silent helicopter.
Modified specialist helicopters for stealth missions
To be fair it’s not just a yard, it’s a compound. The crash could’ve been hundreds of yards away, with multiple buildings in between.
Putting the mission on EASY was just one of the brilliant tactics used by their coordinator
Lmaoo
The seals trained for 3 weeks 12 hours a day running 100’s of potential scenarios and mapping out the complex so they knew it like the back of their hand. You think they aren’t the best trained soldiers in world and drilled for this mission?

*Casually crashes helicopter in backyard of target*

And they said Call of Duty campaigns were unrealistic
Bin laden was a CIA agent. there are so many flaws in the 9/11 attacks like the unburnt passport and collapse of building 7 and even this helicopter crash. it's just a coverup story of an inside job.
Now it make sense , COD is multiple steps ahead
They didnt leave without a trace. The helicopter was discovered and some parts were sent to China and its military
@casper6014 not true. The downed helicopter was packed with explosives and detonated after the men were picked up by the second Blackhawk and a backup helicopter.

@@RealSocketnah thats bullshit

@@trollface_off No they arent
So, let me get this straight: Several helicopters hovered in close proximity to this building, for soldiers to rappel. One helicopter crashed, the other landed (which isn't done in like 2 sec either).. and then the soldiers actually worried about the noise of their explosives? 😂
Yes because even though the noise of the helicopters indicated that the soldiers had arrived, the explosives would have pinpointed their location.
You kind of have to try to put yourself in a situation like that. Yes, looking at it from outside eyes, it seems like enough noise was made already that it seems pointless to worry about other noise but no matter what you want to mitigate a bunch of noise happening. The helicopter crashing was loud enough.
But they still managed to get in and do it and then have time to collect as much intel as they could, which I believe took 45 mins, before escaping. They were far enough ahead that when the Pakistani military sent 2 fighter jets to chase them, they managed to get to the Afghanistan border, which took 90 minutes from bin Laden's house, just before they caught up to them. So the amount of noise they caused, while loud and could have been the end of them, was just under the amount that would have gotten them caught earlier.
@@khanofkhans6546 it's all fake
😂
It was 2 helicopters, not several. they lived adjacent to a military base so at least some of the sound would have been sort of normal. And if they (and they most likely did) hear the helicopter crash, the first instinct would be to believe that it was your local military that crashed. Not an enemy that crashed before they even began the attack.
I can't imagine the feelings going through the 2 pilots of the downed chopper. They are on the most important mission of their lives and for several minutes probably felt like they completely screwed it up. The crew on board probably thought they were goners too. Yet no one was hurt. Miracle.
Helicopter crashes in backyard

who said they didn't? This video isn't 100% accurate and theres really no way it could be. The best account is Rob Oneals story, but he's been accused of not telling the accurate truth.

@@profubaid bro... seriously? let's both use some common sense. Why did the US military feel the need to do this secretly and not cooperate with pakistan? the answer is they were untrustworthy back then too
@@profubaid You gotta be kidding me rn. Pakistan has 45 active t3rr0r groups rn (source: South Asia t3rr0r!sm portal's website). You wanna know the names of a few being hosted by Pakistan in 2025?

Some prominent groups currently existing in Pakistan includes LeT, JeM, h!zbul mujahid33n etc. The US congressional research service report identifies 12 foreign t3rr0r!st organisations operating in Pakistan (Idk whether this is the current report tho) with 5 being india-centric.
So many UN designated t3rr0r!sts and groups exist in Pakistan and you're saying they aren't involved in this now?🤡

It’s a huge compound though and instead of crashing it’s said that the pilot placed the nose of the helicopter into the ground. No one was hurt, It was a controlled crash so maybe it wasn’t as kind as you might think. Also the helicopters were stealth.

True bro that son are just curious the only wrong he did are scaring the team
the team knew there were probably armed men guarding the compound, they couldnt have waited and interrogated to ensure they were actually armed threats
Not one bit, they were going to turn to his terrorist ways. His son would have taken a keen interest in the way of life, they all would have.

This version did well in showcasing the surrounding and the details of the compound inside while it's just plain visual on neo side. It also showed the proximity and the size of Pakistan army base nearby. Neo did better in explaining how they gathered the intel of his location and pointed out the existence of different accounts on what actually happened on the final moment before he got shot.

He was confined to his home and never left for over 5 years. Its' like being under house arrest. He's 6 foot 5 so he was easy to spot in a public crowd.
Its was basically a prison. Also goes to show that no matter how hard he tried to not be found, they still found him even with burning trash, no cell or internet connectivity, and trying to stay unnoticed.

To everyone commenting about how the people didn't "hear" the crash of the helicopter, yes it's not quite true. According to Robert O'Neal, a former Navy Seal who shot Osama Bin Laden, he said that there were nearby Pakistani training facility, which could implies that local people often hearing helicopter rotors. Sure the helicopter could have created a loud thud or whatnot upon crash, but I must say that all pilots involved were selective picked for Operation Neptune, which means they must've been extremely skilled and had many flight hours.
Now at 7:23 where he said the explosive would jeopardize the mission, that's not true. They already made their presence known upon entering the AO (Area of Operation). Also, they didn't use bombs to disable the lock, they probably instead used power saw. Forgot to mention, during the briefing, they thought there would be a S-Vest present, so it was not a good idea to bring any explosives that may contribute the detonation.
As much I would love to yap more, there's just a lot of inaccuracies. For disclaimer, I COULD be wrong about any of this, who knows, I just follow what I believe is true in my perspective and yours can differ from mine.
@majorserrors from what was said in other documentaries, the soldiers scaled the walls (both front and back) after the helicopter crashed
@ Interesting, cause from what I heard, they made a 1:1 replica of the compound for the guys to practice infil, exfil, and timed CQB (Closed Quarter Battle). Pretty sure for CQB, they used dynamic CQB since it’s time-sensitive (dynamic prioritize speed over safety while deliberate prioritize safety over speed).
@majorserrors they did practice it, many times over - they did not anticipate the crash of the helicopter though so had to improvise
@ That’s true, but according to Robert O’Neal, he said the youngest guy said that a helicopter could possibly crash and it became true. Fyi, in all military operations there’s always contingency aka a backup plan, multiple of them to ensure success while prioritizing safety.
@majorserrors the reason for the crash was explained (a updraft from the back rotor) but my question is, if the best soldiers were utilised, why wasn't this possibility not factored in? They practised the drop so many times yet nobody thought about this?
You mentioned that a contingency plan is used in case of military operations but in this case, they simply scaled the walls instead of rapelling into the compound.
This video kept me on the edge of my seat, this is insanely well made
Glad to hear it Leon!
These people sleeping in the compound must have been wearing ear plugs .. How could you not hear a chopper landing on your roof, let alone one crashing in your front yard 😂🤷♂️
Osama was an old and deaf man so he could not hear anything. Maybe. Rather maybe not
