*What really showed me his toughness more than his combat and background, was that he managed to stand and deliver to a roomful of zombies, getting NO freakin; feedback, NO energy return.

Oh stop! Such arrogance. Perfectly decent audience listening to this guy. They are not fighters, so don't expect a fighter's response. However, they are the taxpayers who pay your salary.
@Julian 3 Oh please, he's on a book tour. He's done this talk before to a regular civilian audience and doesn't expect the same degree of energy and feedback that he would get from vets or 2A folks. So he's in familiar territory. Yeah, it's not as much fun but it doesn't make him any tougher. He's also not a natural at doing presentations but he already told us that. Hope he sold a lot of books.
In all honestly, he surely has 100 deadly skills, but public speaking -something way simpler than what he did for a living- is not one of them (yet). He might get much better with practice. On the other hand i would never be any good at what he did... 😌
This guy is sharp enough to make the point that when you are a _SEAL_ and are at the top of your game that sometimes your _worst enemies_ are on your *own side.*
I agree. Its like when you take pitty and use a prostitute hoping the money you give her will hopefully in part fix her teeth buy her decent clothes and afford her a bath, and all she gives you in return are std's.
Speaking in public is a tough gig and his timing was just a little bit off, but he seems genuine and like a guy that doesn't take himself too seriously. Great American Hero! Thanks for your service.
I have a couple friends who were Navy Seals and the craziest thing was they never looked or acted like a cocky arrogant person. Actually the exact opposite very funny yet laid back
Thank you so much for your book Clint!!! The greatest thing any man can do is to share life saving info that they have learned with others. Stay strong brother.
I found this presentation fascinating. The SEAL has shown me that he is a normal, lucid citizen, not a warped, unthinking, gungho brainwashed lackey as we are programmed to believe. If people did not like his presentation, you may not have the technical background to appreciate same. He did a great job and I found his delivery was spot on considering the audience.
Thank The Good Lord we have men like this to protect Our Country. This man and others like him (SEALS) do the things most cannot. SEALS are built for war, but it takes a very unique human to do the job.
I don't. I love what servicemen do, but people are human and some people who served later let themselves go and don't live up to the standards they once held. Not to mention the SOF community isn't known for cleaning up their trash. Just because someone earned the title doesn't mean they were able to maintain standards, and there are a lot of people who are effectively kicked out but never publicly shamed for it since what happens inside stays inside. Without a doubt, overwhelmingly most people who serve are patriotic, disciplined, and morally sound individuals, but there are plenty who are not either because they joined for the wrong reasons or they got a big head thinking they were what they weren't. Worst part is that those people tend to abuse their title, forgetting that the key word is to serve, not to be served.
He was right about not being good at presentations; but, he's a good guy with succinct stories & good overview info. Praying for his protection. We need men like this.
Most people don't know the real truth, or don't care to shut the tv off long enough to figure it out. The soldiers are sent to fight made-up wars created by the elite that own this country, including the military, the media, the Legislation branch, the Judicial branch, and yes even the Executive branch. The soldiers are fed a huge pile of shit to make them feel like they need to put their lives on the line by the elite's chosen, only so the they can get even richer. We supply these countries we invade with arms and ammunition, then have them start a civil war with each other. Then we send our troops over to be the HEROES that end up getting killed, wounded, and scarred for life. So that the rich elite can sit back in their imported leather chair, drinking the finest scotch, and smoking the best cigars, with huge smiles on their faces as they imagine dollar signs, one after the another, in their head. After all the money made from selling the arms and ammo, and raping the country of it's resources after we've won, because we always win, the elite have another nice big hunk of change in their pockets. And all the dead make them happy because they know the World is way to over-populated, so every death is a good death to them. In fact I believe that thousands or hundreds of thousands dead isn't good enough, they probably have a plan in the works to take out millions. I'm not some crazy conspiracy nut, I wish all this wasn't true, unfortunately it is. Do your research.
Nell Franks yeah dirty shit like Obama funding ISIS, training mexican gangs to over throw their government who we know now as MS13, or the CIA creating false flags to take away more of our constitutional rights. Nobody is defending our rights, it is all for the elite to continue ruling us.
Nail on head. This definitely wasn’t his crowd. He’s talked way to much about enjoying killing people and saying they’re murders. Made a little too light of the action. Especially to a room full of squares in DC
1. Don't shoot me in the face for telling you this. 2. I'd suggest you not try so hard at the beginning, with regards to humor. Introduce yourself, lay down your credentials and then get into it. 3. Your humor is more macabre than the average bear is used to hearing. Let your audience get to know you a little before you unleash it. 4. Your knowledge and experiences endear you to your audience. I was laughing and learning half way through your presentation. 5. Thank you for your service. I stayed for the entire presentation. Headed to purchase your book now.
I liked this towards the end not because I have twenty five years of martial arts training but this presentation was very informative. Good soldier defending our country at one time.
First, Clint, I'd like to say 'Thank you' for your career, and service to our Country. I, too, was in the Navy, as a Snipe (Engineman) and loved it, but never pursued a career with the SEALS. Secondly, thank you for this video. Very informative, and enjoyable to watch. I have both of your '100 Deadly Skills' books---the Best Seller, and the Survival Edition. Both are great books, with highly valuable, real world skills and techniques. I also listened to your interview, a few weeks ago, with Bill Cunningham, on 700WLW radio. Very interesting, and motivating. I hope for your continued success, and look forward to more of your books and would like to attend one of your seminars, or public appearances, such as the one in this video. "It pays to be a winner"! Thank you again.
Al Clarkson thank you for your service, people like you do the back breaking work people don’t hear about, I’m going to join the Marine Corp after high school and when I get out of NJROTC- petty officer 2nd class Ferguson
i dont find his jokes funny at all. is like he's just trying to lighten the mood. why, you actually laughed out loud in front of ur com watching this ?
The skills and fight training learned by our military specialists are far beyond martial arts and sports fighting. They are trained to kill or incapacitate an opponent in a fraction of seconds. Not to go 3 five minute rounds and grapple on the ground or wait to see who throws or lands the most punches. MMA, UFC, Belator, Boxing and most of these fighters know they can't stand toe to toe with real life and death situation fighters. Our military specialists can kick ass!
Woooooo exactly. Did you see the vid of Randy Couture submit 3 dozen marines in a row? When that’s all you do 6 hours a day, you are going to be much better than the guy who MIGHT fight once a week in the gym.
Funny that he admits up front that Seals are all sociopaths. The fact that they are needed for war time, should not contribute to our continued wars. Keep these guys ready, but always work for PEACE!🕊
Ive seen this guy in a couple other videos and I really like him. He is good at explaining things and makes the topics far more interesting and easy to understand than other people with similar backgrounds. Plus most "retired" SEALS dont talk about it or advertise that they were once part of the most bad-ass group of people on the planet. Ive worked with 2 ex-SEALS in the past and even after having them on my 6 man crew for over 2 years, they never one time discussed or talked about being SEALS in the past. The only reason I or anyone else even found out was because another veteran we worked with had asked one of them about it. But like most others, niether of them ever brought the topic up themselves. Basically my point is that its cool to see a retired SEAL veteran that is open and talks about thier experiences. Plus he is obviously a smart guy and is fun to listen to. Well done!!
Thank you for your feedback on Clint. If you ever get a chance to visit the Museum, be sure to checkout his feature in the Tools of the Trade and Surreptitious Entry exhibits.
Its called dry humor. Most people I know would get at least a chuckle out of it. But even when the jokes weren't that dark and were more humorous everyone stayed stone faced.
daniel penton yeah, i know. Thats why i kinda laughed a little. Even on the dark jokes. I mean i understand where dark sarcasm comes from. Hence my batman profile lol but still, some of his jokes arent really...well idk, like i said, some of them make you think, wow hes kind of a jackass. But yeah youre right, they do stay stone faced even on the funny ones haha 😂
Yea. I understand that not all jokes are good ones, but I love most kinds of humor to an extent. Thanks for understanding where I was coming from though :)
He's trying to be a stand up comic and people are really waiting on the intense NAVY SEAL guy to show up. People like to be horrified! If he changes his presentation into more of a Master Chief character, he'd make a billion dollars with this level of insight. GREAT INFORMATION!
Thank You for sharing and good common sense facts. Really nice guy! Kyle is remember for his kindness and died doing a good deed! All of the good guys are remember in our prayers and honorable service from you and your family! God Bless the USA and REAL USA CITIZENS!!!
I grew up in a law enforcement family (dad Lt Attica Prison, mom Corrections Officer Albion Reformatory for Women, older brother CO Attica w dad) and I ended up married for 3.5 yrs to parolee out of Attica, divorced, moved W NY to AZ so I've seen both sides. I have been able to move in "rough" circles because I was known as 'no troublemaker" and a "clown" but now at 70 I am disabled and have lost my ability to talk or kid my way out of bad situations. (The bouncers at my hometown bar used me to break up fights as fighters couldn't fight laughing so hard!) Now I show as a 'potential victim' no matter how 'tough' I try to 'look' or how kidding I might be able to be (people don't give the time to old women they gave to good looking young girls). So I really have to rely on knowledge like this more and more and fortunately I believe in Someone looking out for me in the long run else I would go crazy in today's culture. I would love to see more 'how to survive' videos for physically disabled people. (Still trying to figure out how they install shooting mechs in those wheelchairs (LOL).) Just kidding BTW. Anyway, thank you for the info output - very much appreciated!
As a former Marine, there are things my post-traumatic syndrome should know about, not my family, friends, no one. When people ask me what I did in the Marine Corps ( 20 years ) that is my aforementioned answer. The men who are dead that I serve with are heroes, the medals I have are in my draw, I can't look at them without crying about my fallen brothers, why I'm alive, with scalpel all over my body, I don't know.
I am enjoying reading the 100 Deadly Skills book...great information and surprisingly, a lot of it can be useful just in our daily lives. Although my wife and I are fortunate to live in a rather quiet and safe neighborhood, outside the boundaries of similar neighborhoods throughout our city, people are getting shot on almost a daily basis keeping the local police forces very busy. Add the shooting occurrences to the current pandemic and to the possibilities of getting into a traveling accident from point A to point B, the possibility of meeting one's death can happen at any moment. Having the situational awareness, the knowledge and the skills to survive will certainly increase the odds for us to enjoy a longer happy life. Reading, practicing and developing whatever skills we are able to do or capable of doing, using sound judgment can build up one's confidence and it can be obvious to those who want to inflict harm upon us. Criminals will usually go for the weak, defenseless and those who have no situational awareness, as they busily talk on their cell phones or are obviously listening to music through ear buds. SHTF events occur around us daily, e.g. the fires on the West Coast, weather-related events, the pandemic (add the upcoming flu season)...motivation to listen to the experts and be prepared. From one veteran (23 years) to another, thank you for your service, Mr. Emerson!
bless his heart for stepping out of his 'comfort' zone. some quiet thoughts kind of perked up to the surface. he has developed his own brand of coping but i can smell ptsd leaking thru his skin. i just hope when his personal levee breaks,he will have every bit of empathic support he has earned while giving a service and devotion the average citizen cannot begin to understand. i can see where he would do good giving informal talks in a classroom situation. he reminds me of a team mate worked with up until last year. most of them have to go borg to survive. many choose to 'marry the 'job'. it pains me to say so so many of these unsung heros tend to slip into the shadows. so man are laid to their rest without the world knowing their name. depending on their task and what country, the family will never get that call on the phone or at least two officers at your door. there will never be a big envelope with autopsy results. no,he isn;t a smoothly polished guy with an eye to get into the political arena. he issssssss someone i'd want watching my back, if and when shtf, as i would watch his. kudos sir....kudos. p.s.- sorry for the poorly wa i have typed this ot...doing the best i can with only one arm/hand. i'll hush up now.....lol
xop23 watching this and being ex army I would agree that he has some demons in his closet. You can just tell. Hopefully it won’t surface to much n he will be ok.
Love this guys humor! what the hell is this crowd? Did they think they were gonna learn how to weave baskets? I feel like the crowd signed up for the wrong class...Any way, Thank you Mr Clint for your service. You are a true American! God Bless!
I don't care if anyone likes it or not. Not only is this guy a confirmed navy seal, he has other videos and has been on several news shows and programs. Do your homework before youcomment and try to put down one of our veterans.
Juan Javier Diaz hahaha dude litterally I’ve not seen a a single comment insulting him but I’ve seen a lot insulting the crowd for different opinions which is hilarious.
You tell them Juan!!!!!!!!!!! A WAF..... for all the dumbasses out there, its Women of the Air Force!!!!! The insulters couldn’t hold a candle to this guy!!!!!!!! USAF Veteran 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
1:22:44 da-da-da-da-da was the best part. Great talk, very informitive. They need more proactive info like this, on the news instead of just scaring people.
Thank You for sharing a positive response.I was hoping to find comments to figure out if it's worth listening to and all I see is a bunch of straight up IDIOTS trying to up each other on smart ass remarks that they think are witty but just stupid and waists ppls time.TY
26:49 - My Pre-ops prayer always used to be "Please God, don't let me be THAT guy". My worst repetitive nightmare until this day - "me screwing it up for everyone else". Miss step, accidental discharge, wrong target, wrong door or failing to spot a threat.......
If he is a Navy SEAL, which I assume is true, even if he is not there are thousends of men that he describes. he is a killing machine. Fighting is not child's game, war is even less.
Thanks for sharing your analogies i.e. ninja/seal, ebola/bird flu, the impotance of awareness, human life, and yourself with all of us. Weeding out is an interesting concept and a great sense of humor is paramount.
What America needs is more well-dressed, sociopathic trouble-makers/murderers (his words.) Oprah said when people tell you who they are, you should believe them. ...or he was "just joking."
Yikes! The crowd is one breath above dead. I'm glad Clint didn't stop doing presentations because this crowd could easily kill that mood. Thank you for your service sir and god bless you.
I mean, this video was very educational and informative by the teaching and presentation of Clint Emerson talking about his deployments fighting against terrorists and talking about his security skills and deadly skills book. But complacency is the bad guy I love the acronym THREAT which stands for T for Technology, Health, Threats, R for Raids, Robbery, Ransom and E for Environment, A for Agency threats and T for Terrorism.
Thank you Sir for your services. I appreciate all you do, giving back to community. I’ve seen other videos, definitely would like see you in convention. 🇺🇸😁
Guess I'm "0ld School" but I most respect and admire those Navy Seals that would shudder at the thought of writing books and public appearances. The true badasses with honor and humility - you'll never know their names. They remain within the brotherhood but stealth for LIFE!
I believe that there are those people that were in the seals and other Elite teams that are deciding to come forward and present skills We As Americans might need one day and I believe they're aware of this danger therefore because they are American and because they did take us to protect all enemies foreign and domestic they're doing their job by presenting this information to us so that we might benefit from it one day so you might want to keep that in mind when you're saying those things perhaps there more badass than the others who choose to be silent and go along with what's happening
Regarding being placed in the trunk of your car, my good friend when he was 21 & went to a mac machine, a car full of poc's pulled up & the 4 of them had guns. They forced him into the trunk of his own car & 2 of them jumped into his car while the other 2 stayed in the other car. They drove him around Pittsburgh going to different mac machines withdrawing his money from them with his card. His tail light was out & after the first stop & on the way to another Mac machine the Police stopped his car where he banged on the truck roof & got the Police attention. They arrested the 2 guys & later arrested the other 2. Here they were murderers & had done this 2 times before. They drove around maxing out your withdraws & after that happened they shot you in the trunk of your car & left your there dead. Rinse & repeat. This changed his entire life & he became a jail guard to be involved in the justice system.
This guy is great, I keep thinking this is the quietest group I've ever seen. You would have thought he was speaking a different language than the audience
Liked his comments on guns. Points for being a Texan. He talked about senators being blackmailed by their medical records - that's right out of a REALLY interesting piece titled The Hatchet Man's Playbook (which I highly recommend). As for WMDs in Iraq, the NY Times finally admitted in 2014 that MASSIVE quantities of WMDs were in fact found in Iraq in 2003 and 2004, they just didn't bother to tell us about them. The name of that article was Secret Causalties of Iraq's Chemical Weapons (2014). Good on you Clint for mentioning it!
I didn't see him so much as cocky - Just a certain breed...Not many guys can make it into the Seals even when they want too. The warrior breed, trained to kill, and survive under the most dire circumstances. On a different 'wavelength' than us 'everyday' people.
What is wrong with being hyper-American? Where else would you want to live? Why aren't you there? Lastly, why don't you put your life and ass on the line to make her, the United States, safe and secure? I am guessing because sacrifice, duty and honor are absent from your vocabulary.
+Sam Adams jesus dude chill out. hes saying how this man is too good for what our country has become. that was seriously the most bullheaded unthought out jarhead-like thing you could have said. think with your brain lol and stop getting offended.
Bruce Wayne You chill Batman; I was offended, as a veteran, that the ass-hat was belittling a US Navy SEAL on Memorial Day; so play comic book hero elsewhere.
Sam Adams he was actually doing the opposite of belittling him "asshat." so stop being a dumbass. He clearly was complimenting him, you are too stupid to even see that though for some reason.
I think the crowd _seems_ unresponsive or whatever based on the audio level. His vocal mic is right on his collar: the signal's gain is turned down so much to balance that tight position on his trachea that it picks up virtually no crowd energy.
@@michaelb.7800 you obviously don't even know what sociopath actually means. Also you're obviously a bit of a dickhead if you actually think that NG your statements true
@@mrpirate3470 you obviously missed the part where this guy admitted to being, and as a common or observed opinion, characteristic among them...sociopaths, so, now you're telling this seal that *he* doesn't know the meaning of or what an actual sociopath is.

We were taught not to cross arms cause it appeared aggressive. However, they also taught us to put hands on hips as a go to and substitute when wanting to project strength, confidence, openness, and i do not recall what else
To think 4 years ago Ebola came out of nowhere and look where we are now, just makes one think about the "Threats" out there and how we can stay safe. Great presentation, very thought provoking :-)
F5 is not the bios screen for most, esc, F1, F2, F9,F10, F12 on some. SSD drives are so fast you wont be able to start bios unless there is a built in pause. Pause is set in bios, it wont go there unless you unplug main drive and that ones without other quirks.
This is the new development I've noticed at hotels lately. They use properly SA issued certificates but open wifi. You authenticate through the web interface of the hotels website. This means a couple of things. The TLS for web traffic is encrypted properly, but through a cert controlled by the hotel chain, meaning that their end is not encrypted to them. they own all your web traffic through their interface no matter what. Second, non web traffic is unencrypted through the router, and so is visible to any other user with airspy or whatnot. There is no security for non-web traffic.
Tough crowd… more like crowd in denial; or embarrassed crowd. DC is, ultimately, where SEALs’ orders originate, yet this DC crowd (apart from the young females who wanted to jump this man so bad) acted like it didn’t want to know anything about what an individual former SEAL did, thought or how he justified and viewed those orders. The only person who wasn’t all wound up about Clint was Clint himself. Everyone there should have been extremely proud that people like Clint are out there doing what they do best. Clint and his brother SEALs are a product of what is done in DC. I didn’t see any pride; any enthusiasm. What were they expecting, ‘A beautiful day in the neighborhood…’ ? I think he lost them right at the start when he mentioned “…shooting people in the face…”. What do they think goes on in that pentagon shaped building in DC. War is a filthy, violent, soul crushing activity and SEALs; Delta Force etc. are trained to deal with it and still come out the other side as well adjusted, ‘normal’ people. They see the value of their job and do it for the good of their country. Good on you Clint. You’ve got yourself another new reader! Cheers and thank you. BH
I agree these people in the crowd are not the brightest but they were attentive and respectful I think they would have had better input if they had spent the time to have done the proper homework before hand most appear to have come for a show I felt he represented the community of spec ops well unfortunately the folks in the audience appeared to me they felt they were in Vegas at a magic show I am actually glad the majority of people. Don't have a clue thanks clint and the rest of ya all involved thanks for preventing the damage to the environment clint and his operators are true patriotic professionals thanks to all who went down range to keep our republic safe

Very Basic Life living skills as a combat veteran. The only difference with this video is he is teaching, Most veterans know or have a thought pattern to live like this day to day.
Great video.. really liked his suggestions, especially the last one about the mouthpiece. That's something anyone can do, it's cheap, it works (I used to box when I was a kid) and it could save you teeth and maybe your jaw.. and also your life!!..
i usually don't comment on videos, but i'm seeing a lot of comments saying bad stuff about this guy. he's done many other videos and has taught me a lot. before you say something dumb and make yourself look like a fool, remember he's an ex seal. He doesn't care what you think and how dare you say those things to someone who fought for our country.
*What really showed me his toughness more than his combat and background, was that he managed to stand and deliver to a roomful of zombies, getting NO freakin; feedback, NO energy return.

1. Don't shoot me in the face for telling you this.
2. I'd suggest you not try so hard at the beginning, with regards to humor. Introduce yourself, lay down your credentials and then get into it.
3. Your humor is more macabre than the average bear is used to hearing. Let your audience get to know you a little before you unleash it.
4. Your knowledge and experiences endear you to your audience. I was laughing and learning half way through your presentation.
5. Thank you for your service. I stayed for the entire presentation. Headed to purchase your book now.
I liked this towards the end not because I have twenty five years of martial arts training but this presentation was very informative. Good soldier defending our country at one time.
"dont use the podium as a bunker" - but you can pick it up and use it as a heavy blunt force weapon.
LOL!
*FACTS*
Fuckin podium may NOT faze these fucks
First, Clint, I'd like to say 'Thank you' for your career, and service to our Country. I, too, was in the Navy, as a Snipe (Engineman) and loved it, but never pursued a career with the SEALS. Secondly, thank you for this video. Very informative, and enjoyable to watch. I have both of your '100 Deadly Skills' books---the Best Seller, and the Survival Edition. Both are great books, with highly valuable, real world skills and techniques. I also listened to your interview, a few weeks ago, with Bill Cunningham, on 700WLW radio. Very interesting, and motivating. I hope for your continued success, and look forward to more of your books and would like to attend one of your seminars, or public appearances, such as the one in this video. "It pays to be a winner"! Thank you again.
Al Clarkson thank you for your service, people like you do the back breaking work people don’t hear about, I’m going to join the Marine Corp after high school and when I get out of NJROTC- petty officer 2nd class Ferguson
Wow, everyone in that room needs to borrow a sense of humor.
i dont find his jokes funny at all. is like he's just trying to lighten the mood.
why, you actually laughed out loud in front of ur com watching this ?
nobody has a sense of humor in DC
Lol
Alexander Castiglione well he’s a frogmen he was a dark sense of humor which 99 percent of people in that crowd dont have.
In front of your com? Who says com?
The skills and fight training learned by our military specialists are far beyond martial arts and sports fighting. They are trained to kill or incapacitate an opponent in a fraction of seconds. Not to go 3 five minute rounds and grapple on the ground or wait to see who throws or lands the most punches. MMA, UFC, Belator, Boxing and most of these fighters know they can't stand toe to toe with real life and death situation fighters. Our military specialists can kick ass!
this is a troll right? a professional mma fighter would toy with any military member unless they were also a professional fighter.
Woooooo exactly. Did you see the vid of Randy Couture submit 3 dozen marines in a row? When that’s all you do 6 hours a day, you are going to be much better than the guy who MIGHT fight once a week in the gym.
Funny that he admits up front that Seals are all sociopaths. The fact that they are needed for war time, should not contribute to our continued wars. Keep these guys ready, but always work for PEACE!🕊
This book has been invaluable to me ever since I moved to Detroit.
Ive seen this guy in a couple other videos and I really like him. He is good at explaining things and makes the topics far more interesting and easy to understand than other people with similar backgrounds. Plus most "retired" SEALS dont talk about it or advertise that they were once part of the most bad-ass group of people on the planet. Ive worked with 2 ex-SEALS in the past and even after having them on my 6 man crew for over 2 years, they never one time discussed or talked about being SEALS in the past. The only reason I or anyone else even found out was because another veteran we worked with had asked one of them about it. But like most others, niether of them ever brought the topic up themselves. Basically my point is that its cool to see a retired SEAL veteran that is open and talks about thier experiences. Plus he is obviously a smart guy and is fun to listen to. Well done!!
Thank you for your feedback on Clint. If you ever get a chance to visit the Museum, be sure to checkout his feature in the Tools of the Trade and Surreptitious Entry exhibits.
Freakin tough crowd
hes not that funny. kinda makes you think, wow hes a jackass. i mean he said shooting people in the face is fun....
Its called dry humor. Most people I know would get at least a chuckle out of it. But even when the jokes weren't that dark and were more humorous everyone stayed stone faced.
daniel penton yeah, i know. Thats why i kinda laughed a little. Even on the dark jokes. I mean i understand where dark sarcasm comes from. Hence my batman profile lol but still, some of his jokes arent really...well idk, like i said, some of them make you think, wow hes kind of a jackass. But yeah youre right, they do stay stone faced even on the funny ones haha 😂
Yea. I understand that not all jokes are good ones, but I love most kinds of humor to an extent. Thanks for understanding where I was coming from though :)
+daniel “Danny” penton
np ;) haha this world needs a little bit more understanding and less hostility. peace
-bats
He's trying to be a stand up comic and people are really waiting on the intense NAVY SEAL guy to show up. People like to be horrified! If he changes his presentation into more of a Master Chief character, he'd make a billion dollars with this level of insight. GREAT INFORMATION!
WOW !! great show.. and yes He does have a sense of humor, thanks for showing this I found it very informative!!
Big Thanx for posting this vid, ISM! We appreciate you! Signed, Nevette in California
His books are GREAT and super useful... Public speaking skills needs so major help.
Thank You for sharing and good common sense facts. Really nice guy! Kyle is remember for his kindness and died doing a good deed! All of the good guys are remember in our prayers and honorable service from you and your family! God Bless the USA and REAL USA CITIZENS!!!
I grew up in a law enforcement family (dad Lt Attica Prison, mom Corrections Officer Albion Reformatory for Women, older brother CO Attica w dad) and I ended up married for 3.5 yrs to parolee out of Attica, divorced, moved W NY to AZ so I've seen both sides. I have been able to move in "rough" circles because I was known as 'no troublemaker" and a "clown" but now at 70 I am disabled and have lost my ability to talk or kid my way out of bad situations. (The bouncers at my hometown bar used me to break up fights as fighters couldn't fight laughing so hard!) Now I show as a 'potential victim' no matter how 'tough' I try to 'look' or how kidding I might be able to be (people don't give the time to old women they gave to good looking young girls). So I really have to rely on knowledge like this more and more and fortunately I believe in Someone looking out for me in the long run else I would go crazy in today's culture. I would love to see more 'how to survive' videos for physically disabled people. (Still trying to figure out how they install shooting mechs in those wheelchairs (LOL).) Just kidding BTW. Anyway, thank you for the info output - very much appreciated!
I love the book. It breaks stuff down "Barney Style".
he deserves a much better set of audience
As a former Marine, there are things my post-traumatic syndrome should know about, not my family, friends, no one. When people ask me what I did in the Marine Corps ( 20 years ) that is my aforementioned answer. The men who are dead that I serve with are heroes, the medals I have are in my draw, I can't look at them without crying about my fallen brothers, why I'm alive, with scalpel all over my body, I don't know.
"How many people here lived in Saudi?"

I am enjoying reading the 100 Deadly Skills book...great information and surprisingly, a lot of it can be useful just in our daily lives. Although my wife and I are fortunate to live in a rather quiet and safe neighborhood, outside the boundaries of similar neighborhoods throughout our city, people are getting shot on almost a daily basis keeping the local police forces very busy. Add the shooting occurrences to the current pandemic and to the possibilities of getting into a traveling accident from point A to point B, the possibility of meeting one's death can happen at any moment. Having the situational awareness, the knowledge and the skills to survive will certainly increase the odds for us to enjoy a longer happy life. Reading, practicing and developing whatever skills we are able to do or capable of doing, using sound judgment can build up one's confidence and it can be obvious to those who want to inflict harm upon us. Criminals will usually go for the weak, defenseless and those who have no situational awareness, as they busily talk on their cell phones or are obviously listening to music through ear buds. SHTF events occur around us daily, e.g. the fires on the West Coast, weather-related events, the pandemic (add the upcoming flu season)...motivation to listen to the experts and be prepared. From one veteran (23 years) to another, thank you for your service, Mr. Emerson!
I bought his books and one for my dear old dad.
Thank you son.
bless his heart for stepping out of his 'comfort' zone. some quiet thoughts kind of perked up to the surface. he has developed his own brand of coping but i can smell ptsd leaking thru his skin. i just hope when his personal levee breaks,he will have every bit of empathic support he has earned while giving a service and devotion the average citizen cannot begin to understand. i can see where he would do good giving informal talks in a classroom situation. he reminds me of a team mate worked with up until last year. most of them have to go borg to survive. many choose to 'marry the 'job'. it pains me to say so so many of these unsung heros tend to slip into the shadows. so man are laid to their rest without the world knowing their name. depending on their task and what country, the family will never get that call on the phone or at least two officers at your door. there will never be a big envelope with autopsy results. no,he isn;t a smoothly polished guy with an eye to get into the political arena. he issssssss someone i'd want watching my back, if and when shtf, as i would watch his. kudos sir....kudos. p.s.- sorry for the poorly wa i have typed this ot...doing the best i can with only one arm/hand. i'll hush up now.....lol
Dunno, he seemed very well adjusted and insightful to me (and I'm professionally qualified to say that).
xop23 watching this and being ex army I would agree that he has some demons in his closet. You can just tell. Hopefully it won’t surface to much n he will be ok.
I love this guy....thankful he is on our side !
Love this guys humor! what the hell is this crowd? Did they think they were gonna learn how to weave baskets? I feel like the crowd signed up for the wrong class...Any way, Thank you Mr Clint for your service. You are a true American! God Bless!
I loved the last part, carry a mouth piece!
I don't care if anyone likes it or not. Not only is this guy a confirmed navy seal, he has other videos and has been on several news shows and programs. Do your homework before youcomment and try to put down one of our veterans.
Juan Javier Diaz hahaha dude litterally I’ve not seen a a single comment insulting him but I’ve seen a lot insulting the crowd for different opinions which is hilarious.
Juan Javier Diaz settle down.
@@h2hypnos719 Scroll down, they are there. There are quite a few comments calling the man a terrorist and a sociopath.
much respect to all frog men 🗡
You tell them Juan!!!!!!!!!!!
A WAF..... for all the dumbasses out there, its Women of the Air Force!!!!! The insulters couldn’t hold a candle to this guy!!!!!!!!
USAF Veteran 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
In the US Navy we call this Death by Powerpoint. I actually think his jokes are funny.
Yea, because he is a funny fucking dude.
😎
1:22:44 da-da-da-da-da was the best part. Great talk, very informitive. They need more proactive info like this, on the news instead of just scaring people.
Thank You for sharing a positive response.I was hoping to find comments to figure out if it's worth listening to and all I see is a bunch of straight up IDIOTS trying to up each other on smart ass remarks that they think are witty but just stupid and waists ppls time.TY
26:49 - My Pre-ops prayer always used to be "Please God, don't let me be THAT guy". My worst repetitive nightmare until this day - "me screwing it up for everyone else". Miss step, accidental discharge, wrong target, wrong door or failing to spot a threat.......
And I have to add for the record - none of OUR Op's were anything close to what these guy's did and saw...........
If he is a Navy SEAL, which I assume is true, even if he is not there are thousends of men that he describes. he is a killing machine. Fighting is not child's game, war is even less.
Thanks for sharing your analogies i.e. ninja/seal, ebola/bird flu, the impotance of awareness, human life, and yourself with all of us. Weeding out is an interesting concept and a great sense of humor is paramount.
everything this guy says and what he did for our country probably offended everyone there, he is in D.C.
Good...they should all be offended daily; this country is becoming home to all the wimps and cry babies.
This man is real. Telling the truth about what these soldiers are sent off to do. Too bad the real people come last.
What America needs is more well-dressed, sociopathic trouble-makers/murderers (his words.) Oprah said when people tell you who they are, you should believe them. ...or he was "just joking."
What an ignorant and absurd assumption... I'm sure they're all real red-blooded American patriots in the Holler where you live...
@@deangermeten5629 Yes, because Oprah is such a figure of worldly guidance and wisdom. lol. The jokes make themselves sometimes.
Yikes! The crowd is one breath above dead. I'm glad Clint didn't stop doing presentations because this crowd could easily kill that mood.
Thank you for your service sir and god bless you.
The purpose of hand to hand combat is that it's useful in all things and all times. Book of five rings.🌄
His sense of humor is fine. Thanks for the drinks, Jon!!!
And fine drinks they were. 🍷🥃🍾🥂🍻
this guy is cool!
I mean, this video was very educational and informative by the teaching and presentation of Clint Emerson talking about his deployments fighting against terrorists and talking about his security skills and deadly skills book. But complacency is the bad guy I love the acronym THREAT which stands for T for Technology, Health, Threats, R for Raids, Robbery, Ransom and E for Environment, A for Agency threats and T for Terrorism.
3 Years late but I don't give a fuck, this guy is funny and GENUINE as hell and 80% of that room needs to lighten the fuck up.
This was awesome. Thank you.
Thank you Sir for your services. I appreciate all you do, giving back to community. I’ve seen other videos, definitely would like see you in convention. 🇺🇸😁
Totally love the mouthpiece thing :-D :-D
My mom formulates her entire life around these skills. Only her great grandkids can keep up with her.
Much Respect..........
Guess I'm "0ld School" but I most respect and admire those Navy Seals that would shudder at the thought of writing books and public appearances. The true badasses with honor and humility - you'll never know their names. They remain within the brotherhood but stealth for LIFE!
Kim Adams :)
Kim Adams a soldier, marine, and a seal walk in to a bar... then the seal writes a book about it and gets a movie deal. LMFAO
Kim Adams we are in a different type of war
I believe that there are those people that were in the seals and other Elite teams that are deciding to come forward and present skills We As Americans might need one day and I believe they're aware of this danger therefore because they are American and because they did take us to protect all enemies foreign and domestic they're doing their job by presenting this information to us so that we might benefit from it one day so you might want to keep that in mind when you're saying those things perhaps there more badass than the others who choose to be silent and go along with what's happening
Regarding being placed in the trunk of your car, my good friend when he was 21 & went to a mac machine, a car full of poc's pulled up & the 4 of them had guns.
They forced him into the trunk of his own car & 2 of them jumped into his car while the other 2 stayed in the other car.
They drove him around Pittsburgh going to different mac machines withdrawing his money from them with his card.
His tail light was out & after the first stop & on the way to another Mac machine the Police stopped his car where he banged on the truck roof & got the Police attention.
They arrested the 2 guys & later arrested the other 2.
Here they were murderers & had done this 2 times before. They drove around maxing out your withdraws & after that happened they shot you in the trunk of your car & left your there dead. Rinse & repeat.
This changed his entire life & he became a jail guard to be involved in the justice system.
My hubby and I are totally impressed!
One of the worst crowds I’ve ever seen. Great job!
This guy is great, I keep thinking this is the quietest group I've ever seen. You would have thought he was speaking a different language than the audience
The audience was completely freaked out by him. Sometimes, the truth is scary.
wish he talked more about tactics
Isn't as pretty as it sounds in movies
100 Deadly Skills is the name of his book. Not what he’s going to show anyone in a video.
Liked his comments on guns. Points for being a Texan. He talked about senators being blackmailed by their medical records - that's right out of a REALLY interesting piece titled The Hatchet Man's Playbook (which I highly recommend). As for WMDs in Iraq, the NY Times finally admitted in 2014 that MASSIVE quantities of WMDs were in fact found in Iraq in 2003 and 2004, they just didn't bother to tell us about them. The name of that article was Secret Causalties of Iraq's Chemical Weapons (2014). Good on you Clint for mentioning it!
Not surprising the crowd in DC is stiff.. he’s a much better than they deserve and he definitely doesn’t give a crap about political posturing 💯
Clint would make an excellent stand-up comedian and actor.
Navy seals are cocky... rightfully so. That's what people are seeing in his personality ..... I would be cocky too...:) loved it
I didn't see him so much as cocky - Just a certain breed...Not many guys can make it into the Seals even when they want too. The warrior breed, trained to kill, and survive under the most dire circumstances. On a different 'wavelength' than us 'everyday' people.
this guy is too american for america
What is wrong with being hyper-American? Where else would you want to live? Why aren't you there? Lastly, why don't you put your life and ass on the line to make her, the United States, safe and secure? I am guessing because sacrifice, duty and honor are absent from your vocabulary.
+Sam Adams jesus dude chill out. hes saying how this man is too good for what our country has become. that was seriously the most bullheaded unthought out jarhead-like thing you could have said. think with your brain lol and stop getting offended.
Bruce Wayne You chill Batman; I was offended, as a veteran, that the ass-hat was belittling a US Navy SEAL on Memorial Day; so play comic book hero elsewhere.
Sam Adams he was actually doing the opposite of belittling him "asshat." so stop being a dumbass. He clearly was complimenting him, you are too stupid to even see that though for some reason.
Bruce Wayne Reread Batman; this time have Robin translate the big words for you; simpleton.
love the South Park reference...he is my kind of high-functioning sociopath! :)
I think the crowd _seems_ unresponsive or whatever based on the audio level. His vocal mic is right on his collar: the signal's gain is turned down so much to balance that tight position on his trachea that it picks up virtually no crowd energy.
"...high functioning sociopaths..." yep, that about sums it up.
To excel at warfighting, a little madness is essential
Seals and Marines are sociopath that's why they send them in to do the Dirty Work
@@michaelb.7800 you obviously don't even know what sociopath actually means. Also you're obviously a bit of a dickhead if you actually think that NG your statements true
Most of Congress is, with honorable mention of the oval office, I don't discriminate!
@@mrpirate3470 you obviously missed the part where this guy admitted to being, and as a common or observed opinion, characteristic among them...sociopaths, so, now you're telling this seal that *he* doesn't know the meaning of or what an actual sociopath is. Good luck with that, you wanna. be the one to tell him?
We were taught not to cross arms cause it appeared aggressive. However, they also taught us to put hands on hips as a go to and substitute when wanting to project strength, confidence, openness, and i do not recall what else
Good to see the mindset of a real hero.
thanks for the upload
Thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks Clint!
To think 4 years ago Ebola came out of nowhere and look where we are now, just makes one think about the "Threats" out there and how we can stay safe. Great presentation, very thought provoking :-)
Thanks so much Mister Clint - Respects for the BIG and STRONG 🙏🇺🇸🗽🦅Navy Seals American Forces🇺🇸🤝🇨🇦👍
god bless clint Emerson
F5 is not the bios screen for most, esc, F1, F2, F9,F10, F12 on some. SSD drives are so fast you wont be able to start bios unless there is a built in pause. Pause is set in bios, it wont go there unless you unplug main drive and that ones without other quirks.
This is the new development I've noticed at hotels lately. They use properly SA issued certificates but open wifi. You authenticate through the web interface of the hotels website. This means a couple of things. The TLS for web traffic is encrypted properly, but through a cert controlled by the hotel chain, meaning that their end is not encrypted to them. they own all your web traffic through their interface no matter what. Second, non web traffic is unencrypted through the router, and so is visible to any other user with airspy or whatnot. There is no security for non-web traffic.
Thank you for your service. You are quaified and well trained, however please take classes on how to give a good presentation.
Tough crowd… more like crowd in denial; or embarrassed crowd. DC is, ultimately, where SEALs’ orders originate, yet this DC crowd (apart from the young females who wanted to jump this man so bad) acted like it didn’t want to know anything about what an individual former SEAL did, thought or how he justified and viewed those orders. The only person who wasn’t all wound up about Clint was Clint himself.
Everyone there should have been extremely proud that people like Clint are out there doing what they do best. Clint and his brother SEALs are a product of what is done in DC. I didn’t see any pride; any enthusiasm. What were they expecting, ‘A beautiful day in the neighborhood…’ ?
I think he lost them right at the start when he mentioned “…shooting people in the face…”.
What do they think goes on in that pentagon shaped building in DC. War is a filthy, violent, soul crushing activity and SEALs; Delta Force etc. are trained to deal with it and still come out the other side as well adjusted, ‘normal’ people. They see the value of their job and do it for the good of their country. Good on you Clint. You’ve got yourself another new reader! Cheers and thank you. BH
I agree these people in the crowd are not the brightest but they were attentive and respectful I think they would have had better input if they had spent the time to have done the proper homework before hand most appear to have come for a show I felt he represented the community of spec ops well unfortunately the folks in the audience appeared to me they felt they were in Vegas at a magic show I am actually glad the majority of people. Don't have a clue thanks clint and the rest of ya all involved thanks for preventing the damage to the environment clint and his operators are true patriotic professionals thanks to all who went down range to keep our republic safe
ook.. I take that back. this dude it's badass
everytime he asks "making sense?" im agitated that the audience dont respond " hooah"
Stuart Ross 🤣 I was always irritated at the ones who did after basic 🤷🏻♂️
Its HooYah! Not some lame ass Army Hooah!
@@tcgglobalsecurityconsultin8883 OOrah is the Marine Corps, hooah ( that is correct ) the US Army ( the US Air Force has borrowed it since they work with the Army ), and hoorah is the US Navy and the US Coast Guard. I did learn something while in the military besides not being the first to volunteer, OOrah!
Very Basic Life living skills as a combat veteran. The only difference with this video is he is teaching, Most veterans know or have a thought pattern to live like this day to day.
What a legend, I have his books
Great video.. really liked his suggestions, especially the last one about the mouthpiece. That's something anyone can do, it's cheap, it works (I used to box when I was a kid) and it could save you teeth and maybe your jaw.. and also your life!!..
Thanks brother I really enjoyed that video you got a hell of a personality Rock on peace brother
Guy: understand?
Crowd:😐
The largest non ninja crowd ever 😁
i usually don't comment on videos, but i'm seeing a lot of comments saying bad stuff about this guy. he's done many other videos and has taught me a lot. before you say something dumb and make yourself look like a fool, remember he's an ex seal. He doesn't care what you think and how dare you say those things to someone who fought for our country.
Don't know if it was on purpose but 1911s are known to be more prone to reliability issues than Sigs.
My Sig you could stuff full of dirt and it would still shoot.
the design is 107 years old.
Almost lost me when he said China trains hackers and America doesn't. I think every country with modern technology trains hackers.
Surely done in USA and USN. No need to be that obscure; almost all militaries use the same tools today.
