At least it’s the left hand, I would rather lose the left hand than the right one. My best hand is the right one, it’s the one that I write with, the one I punch with when I practice martial arts, it’s the one I eat with… if I lost my right hand I rather be put out of my misery

Took me 5 min to scroll to find this comment. 100%!!!! That steel cable is SO thin, just move some fire onto the cable, get it soft, then hack it off. Such a ridiculous scene honestly, they should’ve put massive iron chains on his arm or something
The most traumatic moment of Rick Grimes finally came to life. Andrew Lincoln finally got his wish to actually do it. Let’s hope he well trained and prepared. My biggest issue with him losing his hand was him handling a gun and couldn’t reload it right away during difficult situations.
I love the quote by the comic author “even simple things like Rick opening a can of beans becomes complicated!” And he mentioned how the revolver was a whole other issue. I think it’s great to see them still do it, but way later. Maybe he’ll find speed reloaders?
Sorry that happened to you, happened to me to but we all kind of deserve it when we scroll on yt right after or right before a show like this comes out.

@@aemontrembath683 I know right, and the reason why I think that is it’s because of Rick’s iconic cop gun belt that he used to wear which was right handed and was meant for him to use with his right hand and not his left hand which was something that the comic Rick didn’t have, plus I think show Rick was always right handed so of course he’s not losing he’s best hand

can i just say...great acting by andy!!!! the way he planned it down to he ties it off and pulls back the ax ready...then stops for a sec and hesitates but talks himself into it!!...this is how!! gave me goosebumps!!

True, when Judith showed up and carried Rick back to base was crazy. Don’t even get me started on how Negan and Rick decided to kiss when they saw each other again. Didn’t expect it
@@skillonidas2262Did you already try cutting one? Do you know the cable is made of white krytonite, so it's not easy to cut it off, unless you have a lightsaber, rick could've asked for the lightsaber from storm troopers but i guess not.
I think people underestimate that cable and considering Rick's situation at that point. If he aimed for the cable instead, he would've needed to hit it a lot and it would take time. Him cutting his hand off in one chop made it waaaay easier for him to get away (even though he got caught right afterwards)
This is OK for Andrew Lincoln because he didn’t care if he died in the original show so I’m pretty sure he’s OK with going in this way he could probably connect the ax to his hand you know how like Merle Dixon Did with a knife. This could happen if Andrew does it or how AARon use the wrecking Ball that was swipe as heck How he use it as a hand in attached it to his hand
When he hesitated, I instantly thought back to the moment Negan proposed the ultimatum: cut Carl’s arm off, or he’d kill them all.
That is exactly what I thought of in that moment. 😂
YES. and all of that for nothing... I mean it was for something but the end result was just him back in containment

The reason we never got Rick hand cut down was because of budget it was to expensive to have Rick moving around CGI his hand being cut

he handed a M4A1 perfectly near the end of this episode, lol
Robert Kirkman actually regretted having Rick loose his hand in the comics.
He can have 2 pistols. 1 that has a magazine with more rounds, and his revolver. Having 2 guns will be quicker than reloading.
Bro knows how Merle felt now

no, that’s not what he meant. “this is how” he gets away. “this is how” he gets home” “this is how” he lives.

This is a crazy parallel to the fact he is now like a brother to Daryl, just like Merle, and Lee.
Its the same scene that Negan tells Rick to chop off Carl's arm
Just realized something, he would've lost his hand/died regardless if he didn't do it. Michonne swung and hit where the arm would've been.
He blocked because of the prostetic. He would have done something different otherwise
Rick really said: Merle you are my hero can you sign my arm?
Lee Everett type shit
Just break your thumb. If you break your thumb you can pull your hand out no problem.
This won’t work in this case, it’s very tight on his hand, take a closer look
I feel it would’ve been better if he actually escaped and him cutting his hand off meant something
Him cutting his hand off WILL mean something later on
I hated it at first but he ends up having the Sickest prosthetic arm in existence
Negan will be happy
Make me dejavu to merle and rick become to the accurate comic version
STARVEING I CALL THAT A DIET
I love the detail put Into the show, as soon as he cuts his hand off he goes into shock and has a adrenaline rush.
This was the shows way of telling us that Rick was is still the same crazy guy that we know.
You would probably have to literally drive yourself crazy for a few seconds to do this
It sucks that he cut his hand off for literally nothing, I guess that's how that usually happens though for nothing that is.
It’s the Gimple special!
I like to think it shows how desperate rick is to escape. Even if it takes to cut his hand off. But idk my idea is probably not cannon 🤷

We thought he was getting a nerf but he got buffed and is like 10x more deadly.
I still can't get over how thin that wire was that he could have just cut through.With some tension on it
Just realized Rick can’t reload his guns anymore
Merel just entered the chat. 😂
