You guys bent the knee when you took down LivePD.
Que want when you going when you cuando when you going when you going could when you going when you going when you going when you going cops when you going when you
What when policia you want cops this
The best person to help a vet is a fellow vet
"The AO is clear"
"I was downrange"
"I'm a friendly"
He knew the right way to speak to him
What he really needed was to hear a Sargent yelling commands. That would have gotten a subservient response out of him.
@@Hipsters_N_Hippies no man...you dont yell at someone having an episode
Just no
@@Hipsters_N_Hippies no, he was already in a ready to fight state. yelling at him could have caused his mind to put him in a full battle mindset. the entire time he was holding position to defend and watch, only ready to fight if engaged. telling him in a calm but firm manner those things was the best they could have done.
I'm going to assume he was also in the service too, the certain way among how combat guys talk, grunts, fellow veterans folks to each other. Now for this scenario, he could relate or empathize with the guy, so the officer could take the appropriate approach towards the vet. Not only that, but the specific places he mentioned too, (now I'm not %100 guarantee he is) made me think so.
@@Hipsters_N_Hippies Yes exactly. Here in India veterans often live in army communities and more often than not the unit commander comes in and yells orders to someone who's suffering like this. It works like magic.
This poor guy man. Served his country, he’s on probation, and he has horrible PTSD. Nothing but love for this guy
White Rider so you’re okay with millions of people that includes innocent children and women being overrun and slaughtered by Muslim Countries that want to take their freedoms away. Last time I checked we Americans are supposed too stand up for the weak, and protect freedom at any cost, foreign or domestic
Jacob Cooper USA is NOT the worlds police force. Stay in your own country and the world would be a much better place.
NorthWest Firefighter you’re such an uncultured person😂 I was born on this rock I’m gonna go see as much of it as possible lmao
NorthWest Firefighter also I didn’t know it was policing when you would be fighting for people’s freedom.
White Rider Oh so it’s the Muslims in Congress fault for sending Americans to go die in foreign countries? Lmao buddy please go look up your history and who’s actually behind all this.
Human mind is terrifying
His brain really thinks he's in combat
You have no idea what your mind can do
As a combat veteran suffering from ptsd, this breaks my heart on so many different levels.
Thank you for your service
How do you deal with everyday life after being in combat & forced to kill
How actually PTSD manifests itself? I have no clue what a person like in the video feels. What makes your brain short circuit like that? What goes through you mind during an episode?
It is real PTSD come because kill innocent people for government get oil?
Sir,please know that you are not only respected fully,but we all love you,too.
You hate to see this. PTSD is a horrible thing
this had me crying because i could relate to the sensation that there are threats all around from surviving someone trying to kil you.
Question ? Doesn`t the USA Government give support to people like this ? Its hard to watch but heartbreaking. Only reason why asking cause I live in Australia. The Police and everyone handled him very well good to see.
David Baker they better help them cuz they’re like that because of the government

That cop was awesome "the AO is clear" he was trying to make him feel safe when nothing was making sense. We need to do alot more to take care of our veterans. They fought for us and our government abandoned them.
Wasn't just the government that abandoned them. Leftists made it "uncool" to support our military!
J nielsen Thats literally not what happened this isnt supposed to be political quit making it. He has ptsd. He fought for our country and the government does nothing to support and help him and many others who have ptsd.
@@roccobro It's never been political, the VA has been underfunded for years. Our government struggles to give the VA the funding it deserves every year. There's so many vets now that the marginal budget increases Congress votes on isn't enough.
Exactly the plot of metal gear.
But I totally agree, vets should be living in awesome conditions with access to mental and physical care at no cost.
@@roccobro Get over yourself. The main reason this guy was even in Iraq and became like this is because of warmongering right-wingers.
"I've always been amazed that the very people forced to live in the worst parts of town, go to the worst schools, and who have it the hardest, are always the first to step up to defend. They serve so that we don't have to. They offer to give up their lives so that we can be free. It's remarkable, their gift to us. And all they ask for in return is that we never send them into harm's way unless it's absolutely necessary. Will they ever trust us gain?"
//Michael Moore
As a veteran, this just absolutely rips my heart to shreds. I was in Afghanistan, but never outside the wire. I can’t even imagine the things he saw. Our government needs to do better by our service members. They need to do better about education on mental health benefits and getting people easier access. Upon my return home from Afghanistan in May 2021 it took almost a year for them to get me and my buddies into “reintegration”. By that point, people could have died had they not been seen by a civilian physician. We need to do better.
Serious kudos to these medics for the way they handled this. Using military verbiage, and being patient with him was so necessary. Thank you for that.
Thank your for your service!
Your government needs to learn to stay home and not teaching every one how to live
Thank you for your service.
@@nuvcrossbackit4361welp if ur country is literally get invaded for stupid excuse ye then u will be happy to get help
That officer is great, identified himself with name rank branch and ID, let this poor brother know he was really a friendly. God bless all of these guys. Thank you for your service to both men as well!
Sad to see someone who served the country in a state like this smh we need more help for our veterans
Broke my heart to watch this. 💔
We have the same over here in the UK with some of our veterans suffering from PTSD and it is not nice at all and a lot of them are living on the streets as homeless people, Not nice for anyone and more so for a soldier that has served his/her country to be living like scavengers on the street, The armed forces and the government should be doing more for those people in need,
I completely agree. I appreciate veterans but seeing this just makes me very sad
Been in this situation. Unless you pump us full of meds not much helps. And most of us dont want that. Sometimes we can respond to prolonged exposure therapy, but some like this guy it probably wouldn't work.
I just wonder what that man could possibly have seen to make him react like that. I genuinely wish the best for him and any vet going through anything like this. 😔 This is sad.
Used to work at a convenience store and had an older Vietnam vet who would come in to hang out most days for an hour or two. He'd stand around and converse or read his paper and greet customers. Every once in a while he'd come in looking disheveled and unkempt. Those days when the change machine would noisily dole out coins or someone jangled their car keys, he'd get down in a stance like the gentleman in the video, ghost gun pulled from its ghost holster, ready to take on an enemy. He liked to gather veterans together to go to funerals for other veterans who had little to no family. He passed away last week and seeing this video made me miss him that much more, for we have so much work to do when it comes to caring for our mentally worn down veterans. There are many more like the veteran in this video.
I hope you went to his funeral 🙏 RIP soldier.
I’m sorry for your loss hope you feel better I’m sure he made lots of people proud
@@calamityjayne9903 sadly, he actually didn't have one due to all that's going on. He'll be cremated and put to rest where other employees plan to visit and place flowers.
@@tsotighguy
Did you look into the Veterans places to see if they would bury him ? Hopefully with all the fan-fare that he deserves being a veteran ?
Could you call some Veteran places and speak to some one and share his story that you shared with us ?
So heartbreaking. The same happened to my cousin. He was such a different person beforehand. He was so funny, outgoing & he was so excited to go into the army & serve his country. After serving in Iraq & a few deployments, he was diagnosed with severe PTSD & schizophrenia. 💔😔 Everyday is a struggle for him now.
I'm a schizophrenic too and I can only say he appreciate the help even if it might hard to see that sometimes.
I am sorry to hear that.
He probably has PTSD, but the schizophrenia is a misdiagnosis
He's lucky he has such a patient and level-headed mom. It's clear she really cares for him.
As opposed to all those moms who hate their children?

This is heartbreaking. Our poor veterans need care and proper support not probation or more stress. I wonder what he was like before all this happened?
Most likely a regular guy. I had to deal with this growing up. My Dad served over in the gulf and he was not the same nor was he the same ever again. We all need to come together and help our troops, vets, law enforcement, neighbors, and friends. Do a little bit, because a little is better than nothing and a lot of little stuff can add up to a big thing!

He was in Iraq
You know what america was doing there?
Occupying Iraq for its natural recources and killing civilians
The way the officer was talking to him telling him he was a friendly and that the AO was clear and was super sweet and supportive. This whole vid gave me a new perspective on PTSD.
they gave their life for their country, physically, and mentally.
Just so yall know, when the officer was saying "The AO is clear" he was trying to connect with the vet by using code words that are used on the front lines "AO" stands for "Area of Operation". Although I know some of you probably knew that.
Thanks for the explanation. I'm a non-English speaker, so I was wondering what AO means. Btw, I think the paramedic you're talking about is actually a police officer.
Thank you i appreciate your explanation!
I knew this, but I appreciate you explaining it!
you going to tell us we need to breathe oxygen, drink water, and eat to survive next
In their minds and eyes Humanity is just a Word.
I feel so bad for this guy we need to do more to help veterans
@nomar Dinkleberg Who else is going to fight our wars? You? Do you want our country to perish?
Just execute them
Lapis Eye Why would we execute people who served our country?
nomar Dinkleberg They were killing terrorists that were murdering innocent civilians.
Then stop voting for Republicans who continually attempt to cut the budget for the Veterans Administration.
I’m literally crying for this vet right now.
That's the difference between civilized culture and places like India.

As man what a poor guy. No one should have gone to Iraq 😞 what an effort disgrace the whole thing was
Never any shame in crying man.
The BEST I've seen them handle someone with PTSD. That was beautiful. Speak to him in veteran language and just wait for it to end... it always does eventually. So glad this went well.
As a combat veteran with a service related disability due to my time in Iraq... I'm so sorry. You're not alone brother. Take your time, seek help. It doesn't make you weak, it makes you strong. There's medication and counseling that can help. Also, if you don't have it, seek military disability. Regardless of what you've heard the VA has been great to me and will help you as you need it.
Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service Zach. You’ve given more than we should have ever taken from you.
Mr.Zack🪖 is very strong man...very...I wish all the best. Great respect 🕊️👋
You don't get this level of trauma pushing paper in a field office, this man saw some wicked things. I feel horrible, he shouldn't have to live like this.
Lots of people see crazy combat. Note that many have severe PTSD like this. You just hear about it in the news
@@johnford9070 some people are more prone to this kind of trauma response than others, everyone copes differently. It’s still sad.
I hate sentiment like this. I'm a grunt and I know pogs who been through more than some grunts. In the infantry anything can happen to anybody...combat role or support. And even outside of the infantry. Mortor IDF on a FOB can have people pretty messed up as well...that happened several times during GWOT bro.
Not only saw but DID some wicked things unfortunately, more often than not PTSD comes as a result of reacting in a very deadly way to a dangerous situation.
I think in one part of this video, the mother mentioned that he saw his army friend die by getting blown in half in Iraq
Our veterans deserve better! He gave his nation his life for how many years he served. He should be in a care facility run by the military to treat and assist those returning with mental illness.
Dude him coming back to reality literally knocked him out. . . That’s how you know his PTSD is really serious. Prayers for him
People don't understand how this happens to a person. In some cases it builds slowly. Every intense situation adds to your internal stress and it keeps building until one day you're freaking out and can't understand why. Sometimes you're just on autopilot and have no control over what you're doing in extreme cases. I feel for this man and I hope the doctors can find something to make his life easier.
Can't friggen imagine.
Probably due to all the brain washing the government has done to this poor souls to fight for the jews’ backyard. Sad.
This guy needs a companion I'm shocked they haven't offered him a support dog with this severe PTSD. There are channels that will help just have to know who to reach out to. Hope he gets with the right people.
how do you know what he has and hasn't been offered?
The Veterans Administration has ruled that service dogs have not been shown to help Vets with PTSD. Therefore, only a handful of Vets get dog from the VA.
It's B.S. I know, it's a $$$ thing since trained Service Dogs are expensive.
@@jonnwray960 the only vets that get service dogs usually are blind or deaf from service, or they were severely wounded during service
@@joeswansonthesimphunter2612
Sorry Joe, that's not a 100% correct.
Yes, blind, deaf vets get service dogs thru the VA, the VA contracts with a legit service dog training group near it's medical facility. The same goes for seriously wounded vets as well as you mentioned.
For years, the VA has claimed that their was no evidence that service dogs were any help to the disabled. The real story is that the V.A. didn't want to spend the approximately $25K per trained dog. Just recently, Congress grew tired of the V.A.'s B.S. and ordered the V.A. to immediately supply vets with dogs.
There is a program that has been a huge success for the vets. In some prisons, inmates can volunteer, and if selected, are matched up with a dog to teach the dog to be a service dog for a vet. It is a win-win-win situation. First, the dogs come from county/city pounds, humane shelters, rescue shelters, etc. So the dogs get a 2nd chance at life, they will be well cared for in a new home, and they will have a job to perform..........dogs are happy when they can work.
Next, the disabled vet gets a dog, trained suited to their needs and disabilities. Then, the inmate..........he/she gets a rewarding task to perform. The dog is with them 24/7, the inmate feeds, trains, plays, sleeps with the dog. The inmate learns responsibility, a skill that can transfer to the outside world. The V.A. wins, only a handful of staff will be needed at each prison. The staff will be needed to train the inmates on how to train the dogs, how to care for the dogs physically, supervise the program, purchase and distribute supplies, and make progress reports to the V.A.
I know a great deal about the service dog issue.......I have a service dog, and I was lead to her by the V.A.
@@jonnwray960 also need to point out the stipulations to qualify for a service dog are pretty extreme. The veteran has to be verifiable clean and sober for atleast one year. The veteran has to have their own home or live with someone who has been designated as a caregiver. If the veteran has a history of suicidal thoughts they must be deemed to no longer be any threat to themselves. The list goes on, which sadly drives away applicants.
Thank y’all so much for helping my brother. The compassion is so awesome. Thank y’all so much
I was doing work experience at an aged care home last year. One of the clients was a veteran. I witnessed him having a PTSD flashback and I immediately called 000 and started to cry. Seeing him in such a state was heartbreaking. He was so kind, caring and inspirational. It’s a day I will never forget. I just hope he got the help he rightfully deserves and needs. 💔😭🙏
i just shead i tear watching this i cant even imagine what horror he has seen on is service on iraq to be that messed up .
It was kind of hard to hear over all of the other sounds and people talking, but the mom said that he saw his friend's dismembered arm holding onto his shoulder and the rest of his friend's body was off to the right of him. I can only imagine how traumatic that was on him mentally. I wish Zack the best and hope he gets all help the help he needs.
Man that’s hard to watch. Hopefully he can get the help he needs.
My best friend suffered from ptsd, he took his life about 2 and a half years ago now. I miss him to this day and I love seeing people get the help they deserve and need
Im sorry for your loss
Never seen PTSD as real as this, poor guy, and to remember that there are thousands more just makes me so sad 😔

how many kids did he shoot though?

“All gave some...Some gave all”
In my opinion, this man gave all.
Stay strong Zack...and thank you.
Thank god he has his Mum’s love and support, a lot of veterans don’t have family support at all and that makes it even sadder.
The good thing is now this officer and fire rescue now know about the PTSD and seizures as well as how to safely work with him.
I hope they usw this as a training video for recruits.
Great job to his Mom and parole officer for getting the necessary information out.
Poor dude, can't imagine the horrors that he has witnessed to put him in such a state.
I feel bad for the man, that’s a guy who was willing to sacrifice his life to protect us. Even in this state, look at his posture and awareness, it is built into the muscle and mind, i can not imagine the horrible days and nights he went through. Veteran deserves more attention and funding.
The worst scars are the ones within in your mind.
This is so sad. Wish him the best.
I'm not an american but this made me drop tears of heartbreak.. so devastating to watch.. i wish him well 💔💔
My heart is crying seeing this. Hope he will be okay. He deserves a good life.
Man that officer is amazing he did exactly what needed to be done reassured him that the Area was clear Excellent job
That's unreal, I've never seen ptsd this bad
Tbh although it looked bad, I'm sure he's had worse, it gets a lot worse than this. (I have ptsd myself and this level of a ptsd episode would probably be a scale 7 out of 10 which is very bad but not VERY bad)
Heart goes out to this guy.....in his mind he is back over there.....I hope he gets the help he needs.
This brought me to tears. Some service men (and women) never do come back home, physically nor mentally.
Those first responders were just so wonderful to that Veteran . So nice and not judgmental, those people were so amazing ❤️
Out of all the videos i have seen by this channel, this one hits the hardest. It brakes my heart to know that so many ppl in America don't care about the ppl who fight to keep them safe and free..
Poor guy, hope he gets peace someday. Those officers and EMS did such a good job handling the situation with respect.
Very happy how his mom wasn't adding on stress and was leading the servicemen through her son's condition calmly
Actual dissociation, actual PTSD. This is heartbreaking.
I couldn’t imagine what he went through 😢
I'd like to throw back a few cold ones with this dude. Nobody understands a veteran other than another veteran. Regardless of service branch, we're all brothers and always do what we can for each other to make it through another day. We all have our moments.
I suffer from the same type of seizures, they handled that situation amazingly
Wish I could thank him for his service it sucks seeing that this veteran will never be the same how he use to be
It really breaks my heart to see veterans like this. With their traumas and seizures, and their never be the same person again.
This made me want to cry.
I’m so glad these guys acknowledged and respected him and his situation
They have definitely been trained on how to deal with a situation like with well through the use of de-escalation tactics. Just goes to show how useful training and education on how to properly deal with situations like this can be. Because without it this could have ended much differently.
Please help all disabled veterans, make it a priority to give them all and any health care. Any hospital every doctor give them the help they deserve.
This made me cry I have a cousin who this happens to and I wouldn’t wish this on anyone
God bless his heart for giving his life for America I wish America would just give as much back as he did
Honestly, this made me almost cry
Thank you for showing what’s it’s like to have an episode. God Bless this man and his amazing mother. Caregivers are the often unsung heroes for our heroes with PTSD. ❤️
This is sad man... I’ll pray that he is free from this 😔
Oh no. hope he gets the help he needs.

As others already mentioned... how incredibly sad.. rarely see such a sad thing. This is such "a such far from my bed show" i just basically can't imagine what the guy is going through. Hope he received some proper help and something like a helping dog.
A service dog came to my mind as well. Seeing this makes me think of people w the same ptsd who have service dogs explaining how much they helped them. I think of one man saying he could tell his dog all the things he couldn't tell anyone else and how much that had helped him. Watching this just breaks my heart.
I was a upset that A&E would show this but the truth hurts. We need to support our veterans more than ever. God bless all of them. 🇺🇸
I think people need to see the truth of what combat related PTSD looks like because then we can't ignore the problem and might have a chance to help improve the situation. Usually the comments are filled with crude jokes but everyone in this comment section seems genuinely concerned for him and other veterans after seeing this.
"Arm over here....and his friend over there" he saw his mutilated friend. Godbless this man. Saying thank you for your service to people like this just doesnt feel right
This is super sad to see. We really need to do more to protect the men and women who come back after they fought for our country.
This was difficult to watch, I started to cry. I feel so sorry for this Vet. I hope and pray he will get the help he needs. Glad to see he was treated with respect.
God bless you men 🙏 I'm from Brazil !
these are the people we should be protesting for!
That was sweet of the officer telling him the "AO is clear".. I hope he is doing ok. Poor guy is messed up in the head for life..😥 thank you for your service, Sir. As well as the officers
So heart breaking. If our VA had more funding we could help so many more vets like him. I hope the camera wasn’t mistaken for a weapon either. Seeing him hide behind the truck... ugh heart breaking.
I love the communication skills
It's always good to have a former military service member when it comes to a manic episode. That's why the cop was saying "Ao" and "Friendly", ptsd is a veteran's scar you can't see.
This was hard watching
PTSD IS NO JOKE
ITS SAD HE DID SO MUCH GOOD FOR THE COUNTRY BUT NOW HAS TO LIVE IN FEAR AND PANIC NOW💔GOD BLESS HIM🙏🏾
These people give us the freedoms we have today and they get home battered and worn, with no help or assistance.
I intended to watch this to see fellow firefighters treat a possible injured veteran.... what I saw made me tear up a little because ptsd is real and can cause traumatic stress with serious depression. I have depression and never have I wanted to cry more over watching something until now.
This is so sad god bless him 💙💙
After watching this I have more respect for our vets 😭
