This is why cable TV is dying, when you have creators like neo who create professional amazing documentaries like this. Keep up the fantastic work bae.,
I mean he did put the good part behind a pay wall so I wouldn't say TV is dying, its just moving online. Still gotta pay.
@@Vativ , we are paying anyway (through ads). Creators do need to get paid for their jobs. :)
@@Sivah_Akash no, I've youtube hacked
@@Vativ So? should he just put his time and effort in making these videos go to waste. We're still paying for it with our privacy. Besides, the quality of a documentary like this is unlike any that a news channel or even Discovery Channel would create nowadays.
@@ballistic_buddha Or he could've just uploaded it to youtube and gotten ad rev. He's def lying about that it would've gotten demonetized.
Not only is this an insanely well produced video, it’s invaluable content to history. They don’t teach raw modern history in schools like this. Big ups
bot comment
ofcourse they do
The graphics are good, but the storytelling is so slow paced.
"History is written by victors"
Would be more invaluable if they told the truth. The CIA knew where he was because they put him there and they knew a Pakistani journalist was going to expose it. So they moved him to another safe location and pretended they had killed him. No body? No problem.
I was a little kid so I never quite grasped just how monumental it was finding this guy. I thought he lived in some underground hideout in the middle of nowhere, but he really was living in a luxurious home? And the Ibrahim guy unknowingly led the forces straight there, what a wild goose chase.
I was in 5th grade when I heard the news. The sense of victory was immense, and seeing the President announce it was wonderful.

@@AlOqab_ You funny....where can I find your act in the local comedy circuit?
Wait, you believe this bs? The bin Laden family are effing billionaires with deep ties to the Ruling Class and US intelligence…. Not too terribly bright, are you?
4chan could find him in 4 days
Real
4chan was fairly young at that time, only a year old. So my assumption is that they too searched for him.

Couldn't agree more
Who is 4chan ?
This video is being correctly praised for its quality but I want to highlight just how powerful the year transition sections are. The story feels so much more grounded when you're subjected to a montage of what happened at that time rather than just seeing a year number on screen.
Those are just incredible. I could watch a video of just those.
@@Matkatamiba I would pay good money to be able to watch hours of those cuts.
I found it funny how critics in 2006 labeled Twitter as a “cyber drug”
And I don’t disagree lol
you have many creative thoughts about pure bullshit, you'll go far...
OBama been Biden !!!??
This is so well produced. The snippets of headlines to mark the passing of time. The positioning of faces in a relational hierarchy, then faces highlighted as mentioned in the narrative? Damn dude. I was guided through this video and it was a f-ing pleasure. Excellent work.
Thanks so much!
Same
the time passing transitions were stunning, I agree
Passage of time...on a yellow school bus.
Also Made a documentary how America lost in Afghanistan
So was this video just a long ad
This shit felt like a cod loading scene
both of my parents learned to speak, read, and write Arabic in defense language school. my dad was picked up by a contracting company working with the government and spent half my childhood overseas.
He’s talked about being able to speak with Sheikh Mohammed while he was in custody in 2003. he didn’t try to hide anything he had done, he was eager to talk about the lengths Al-Queda had taken to carry out the attacks. the men were fully funded and lived in the US for several months, even took flying lessons in Arizona, Florida, and Minnesota.
People credit bin Laden with the attacks, but it was Sheikh Mohammed that orchestrated the whole thing. I’m glad that distinction was made in this video
edit: Sheikh Mohammed had admitted that he was angry the towers had imploded rather than toppled over. he had given specific instructions to hit the top of the towers anticipating that they would fall sideways.
Osama is still considered a hero in the Islamic world because they think he was involved in the 9/11 attacks. Pakistan even chose to hide him and protect him, while pretending to the world that they are against terrorism.
cool

This was such a good video I signed up to Nebula on your link to watch that one, and also was not disappointed. Your content is top-tier and the hours it must take to make it must be astonishing.
Thank you! Super motivating to read this.
but u have to pay right?
This is genuinely the best channel I have subscribed to
I feel like this video was just a massive Nebula ad💀💀💀💀💀
Fr tho. The video didn't even fucking conclude
Yeah this shit sucked
yeah fucking scummy or you upload the whole thing or you dont at all, leaving the best part behind a paywall was a dick move@@splattwig
I mean the title was “how osama bin Laden was found” and he answered it so
true
After like 4 years of Nebula ads, this is the one that got me.
i’ve had it for forever but don’t use it much, this brought me back to it immediately. you’ll be happy to find out the second part is excellent
For real. This video was interesting but it felt like build up. Now that im all hyped up I wanna watch this so bad

Nah it pissed me off- made me want to get Nebula even less somehow.
Absolutely love the pop culture montages you use to indicate time. Totally places us in the right era and reminds us of so much.
On the bright side, this video brought you another subscriber, so regardless of what RUclips restricts and prevents you from being able to do what you want to do creatively, this video still brings in new fans and potential Nebula subscribers!
This was the best nebula ad I’ve ever seen
Incredibly well made video. Where you got all that old footage and were able to line up all those iconic moments was very captivating. Great job. Keep it up. New sub.
Great sir
Better than any Mainstream news media nowadays 100% with WAY less of a budget.... when you actually think about its pretty depressing.
Bot
agree
Those year transitions are fantastic
I love your animation style a lot. It is very creative and unique.
This video makes a Netflix documentary feel like a middle-school short-film project. Great toning of the voice, the highlights, the structure really keeps you watching from beginning to the end. Keep up the great work neo!
WOW! JUST.... WOW!!!
That's is by far the most well done production that I've seen in a while. You guys are awesome!
Guess it wasn't an inside job
@@CharileWaffles unfunny and cringe
its a single guy.
You never saw the bee movie ? Shrek? Your statement is weak
Just find me a good channel to get my going. Good videos bro.
Its absolutely incredible that you highlighted all the actual significant events down the history happened as the years progressed further.
i remember i was in elementary school when it was all happening and got really vague knowledge about everything rolling at the time, other than the impression of 'bin laden bin laden the terrorist bin laden, and obama'. Now getting to know the details is the feeling words can't explain. total chills.
keep up the good work sir. you got yourself a new loyal sub.
Really?
@@hoanvu9418 uh...yep?!
@@kimkhanhtran143 Oh kei!
Speaking of school. I was in middle school and for our "knowledge about society" classes, two students a week had to prepare a presentatiom covering important events of that week from either the country, or the world. I just so happened to have the "events in the world" presentation when it was announced that bin Laden was killed.
Now that your an adult. You should know the reality. Osama fought American proxy in Afghanistan. He was fed and dressed by the Us, so this mission was about hunting on of their own. It has nothing to do with my religion. Beautiful Islam. You may have witnessed another Us man that was the leader of the Isis, how he was created by Hilary.
i loved the use of news clips to show the years progressing. such a fantastic stylistic choice.
Must be hard to go years of nothing to lead off of and probably giving up hope so many times but you know there’s no way you’re stopping because somebody was always going to keep digging on the case.
There's always that one detective that never quits.
Man this is great and the render with the cars love it
Great content 10/10⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Neo your videos have always been highly detailed and well made. Every topic is presented in a perfect manner that keeps the audience hooked till the very end. Not to forget every video on an educational level is a masterpiece.
Thanks for providing such great content.
Hope you keep making videos and educating people.
Thanks, Shubham!

I've seen nebula plugs from so many creators, but youre the first to ever make me tempted to sub, even if just for your extra content. the entire time you were introducing the informants, I was wondering about the torture allegations, and then you brought them up like you read my mind? amazing video :))
HAHA, I was just thinking the same thing, first time I've ever considered subbing to Nebula
Don't. It's a knockoff youtube.
@@hexagonist23 how is it a knockoff when youtube censors this type of content?
Wee bit too much Ambient Occlusion FX on some of those model textures.... They are like... wax figures??? It is kinda cool. Great video!!!!
Not expecting such a great quality content. I am blown away with the quality. It’s informative and amazingly gripping. I am happily surprised.
The one on nebula is absolutely worth it imo
They found him because they planted him. Research Operation Amalgam Virgo
@@Michael-mr6lh ur paid to say that 😂😂

Great video. It’s a shame we can’t see everything you made on RUclips. Haven’t made my way to Nebula yet-hard to justify getting more video apps.
This was worth the wait, one of the best videos That I have watched on RUclips ,great work👌🏾
Wow, thanks! Glad you enjoyed my work!
This video was great indeed, but you have not watched enough RUclips sadly.
@@shahan484 🤣🤣😂😂
@@neoexplains great work Neo.
What surprises me the most, is how the US continues to support Pakistan militarily, and financially, after Pakistan has stabbed us in the back so many times.
When the US lost in Afganistan, Pakistan celebrated, it's prime minister, and military leaders openly said that "pakistan won against the US using US' money." Yet, we're still helping them.
well edited. but.. i watched the whole thing and saw no footage of bin ladin being captured.
i will believe in the tooth fairy before i would believe that crap
As he was moving up in years and showing snippets of current events it gave me chills and made me feel right back where I was during those times
Interesting
why the girls kissin tho
This is so well produced!
This is one of the most amazing videos ever seen wow....good job
You should be careful of propaganda.
Maybe research a little?
A quick comment about America’s interrogation techniques. When Abu Zubaydah was captured, it was the FBI’s Arabic speaking Ali Soufan who first questioned him. Using respect and traditional questioning skills, Soufan learnt key information from Zubaydah which ended up being consequential in the long investigation into finding OBL. The CIA rendered Zubaydah only days into Soufan’s questioning. Once rendered and tortured, it was observed that he gave no further useful information to interrogators. Hence - torturing was counterproductive on every level.
not every level. if they had gotten to him first, they probably would have gotten the same info he gave to ali soufan
Absolutely! This has always been the case. Torture only results in people telling you what you want to hear so the torture can stop. I honestly can’t believe we’re still using such barbaric techniques.
CIA concluded, before 9/11, that torture did not work.
Found the weak sensitive liberal
Girly jim
Well they tried to pretend they were the Saudis so Abu Zubaydah reveal information which he did
It is a well made Documentary what i liked about it is this also tells the major events that were happening in those years aside from the CIA investigation. I really appreciate this type of clean clear cut Documentary.
I still remember it being a school night and staying up late to see what the President was going to announce and being totally surprised when he announced they killed him. I was too young to understand 9/11 but I feel the same about the night I found out he died as people do about the day of the attacks. I remember everything about it.
Your video is soooooo high quality!!
Absolutely Stunning the sheer quality of these videos, keep it up chief!
I can't express how I love this 3D style! It is soooo great! Thank you for inspiration! And for great stories!!!! Instant subscribe!
Man seeing all those clips from the early 2000's brings back memories
Neo, your videos are amazing holy shit!!! Props to you!!!
Neo, your videos are amazing. I’m waiting until summer to finally buy a Nebula subscription and binge everything from you and other creators lol
The whole sequence from 12:08 has brilliant music, straight out of a movie. I would love to know where I could get such music ! Also great work on this whole video !
Subscribed to watch the rest of it. EXCELENT video holymoly. Terrible UI though why do they instant hide your mouse when you move it into the window it's so disorienting.
Wow, great video and motion graphics!
The fact that his house was blocks away from Pakistani military academy still blows my mind. So shady
They built it for Osama after they captured him years earlier.....it was NOT his HQ....it was where they put him with the Saudi govt paying for it.....this video is a CIA funded lie
it's all bullshit lies
two streets away my house we played both of them.
Stay safe
.pray for u @@mentsoo8519
This was a very well done video detailing the history of searching for and finding Osama. I've never seen a better video on this topic --others are either 60 min long or too short to cover all the important details. Plus this video had great story telling and visuals.
Good thing I
Found this channel 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm a huge fan of your channel! ❤
I have commented before on Neo's unique & enriched way of creating content like this & i'll say it again and again. Keep up the amazing work, it's impressive to very very minute detail ❤

I thought your transitions using mainly news headlines and the like--Steve Jobs unveiling the iPhone, the 2008 election, etc.--was really cool. Great video.
great video. I genuinely liked the info and new learning. just cut short because i am a student from a poor country who cant afforr a subscription on nebula where all the complete and detailed infos really are. such a shame.
" ... on which my friends and I have embarked ..." is better than " ... which me and my friends have embarked on ...". In general, you confuse "me" with "I". This was an outstanding video. Well Done!
love how the video was made & edited makes it really interesting & more entertaining to watch
The mix of story telling and editing are very well done here. Great job.
Weird how the U.S. government had so much trouble finding someone they themselves sheltered.
The world is really big and since he had fought along side US intelligence he had a good idea of how they worked
these conspiracy theories are dumb lol

Great video man, really well done. Can you do how the east german Stasi worked next? I think that would be beyond interesting.
true. And this is not really discussed anywhere
You should watch the movie The LIves of Others if you're interested in the Stasi. I can't recommend it highly enough.
I'm more interested in how the United States Stasi operates.

such high quality documentary with amazing storytelling, this is why I am always waiting for videos from neo, Lemmino and few others!
Love it. As always.

the production value of this was incredible, wow
Man, this was a great video, and I really enjoy the effort that goes into it but, it really sucks that the best part, the other video, is stuck behind a paywall on another site :(
Spectacularly well done.
I like the way you portray how years pass
The quality of this channel is incredible, and the incorporation of 3D animation is great. Although the realism of the car following takes you about the story a little, I'm sure that will get better with time!
awesome video! however can we just talk about how that was the BEST add for nebula? like im a subscriber already but i watched it through just because it was so good
I can only imagine the amount of hours and effort it takes to create such high quality content - those 3D models are insane!😅
This is really informative. Please note though that the animation about the contact guy being followed in Peshawar, Pakistan has one mistake. The traffic in Pakistan is on the left side of the road, not on the right as it was shown.
The quality of this video is comparable to a Netflix Doc
Great production quality. New information to a subject that has been very murky for years. Top job Neo.
love the art style, like a model in a room
This stands out to be one of the best documentaries i've watched.
Wow every video you make is a masterpiece. How long does it take to do a video documentary like this? Do you do it by yourself or do you have help for the production of
Thanks! This one together with the Nebula video took about one and a half months. Some videos are quicker, this one was just very 3D animation heavy
It's crazy we can have access to such amazing quality documentaries like this for free! That shot at 2:45 literally gave me chills. Time to get nebula so I can see the next part :)

Sucks that we have to pay for another service to finish the documentary. Great production with no ending sadly.
