At the edge of madness, he will show no sadness
Never broken, he'll be back for more
Proven under fire, over trench and wire
Forged for the war, he's unbreakable!
I've always heard the saying "He was made for war" but I never seen an example so accurate to this quote. This man was quite literally made for war
Destined for war
Nah, war was made for this man
@@wheelocheese7602 great name mate
Designed for war
Yeah dude his plot armour is of the chart's
This man fought in both World War's, getting severe injuries throughout both, and managed to make it to 80+. Absolute unit. Respect
In total he survived 5 wars, 5 plane crashes, 13 injuries, and a multitude of POW camps
Pretty epic
and yet, some stairs gave him his greatest injury......
@@mozxz the worst enemy of all.
The worst injury yet was done by some measly stairs😢
I love how he ONLY retired after he fell down stairs. Not from the many, MANY injuries from battle (like how any SANE person would). No- only from falling down a flight of stairs. This man is THE real life final boss.
Gives a new meaning to "These stairs are killing me."
idk how but I hate stairs now
He was on his last bar of HP when that happened.

Now I think it’s safe to say the majority of you have never seen a grenade, much less held and operated one. So I think it is worth mentioning that to pull a grenade with your teeth implies you have no other plans for your teeth after whatever it is you’re doing at that time. This dude did that multiple times. What an absolute mad lad
That's the case for modern grenades. The whole grenade pin teeth-pulling thing originated from WW1/WW2 when the amount of force needed to pull out the pin wasn't as high. Later on, they made it higher for safety purposes but the trope would continue to exist in movies.
@@dominykasmetlevski1896 well that would certainly makes sense. Safety regulation wasn’t necessarily a primary concern back in those days lmao
@@multifister47 It would be pretty crazy if it was the case with this guy though. Considering the other stuff he did I wouldn't be surprised. I'd imagine he would shatter some teeth and then save each tooth for one grenade lmao

Sorry to ruin the belief of this great story and soilder but As a Historian myself this is fake. the first reason is that the channel maker simple history is lying as they say that the soilder joined the army in the second world war in 1899 which isnt the correct date if this war. the second world war began in 1939 september 1st. the second reason is that it is a extremely low chance to survive the injuries. As i may not be a scientist or medical profeesional i did learn a lot about that type of stuff. i also have a freind is a Doctor and i asked them to look into the injuries which the soilder had. they said alot of the injuries would normally kill someone either in about a day or a week without immediate medical care and surgeory. also the bullet around the back of the head depending where it hit would probally make the soilder unable to do alot of there everyday things. Just to be clear i am not putting any hate onto this youtuber there are quite a bit of facts and knowledge they say and also they just want to make interesting and entertaining content. i just wanted to clear up the miss infomation also im not saying the youtuber is lying they may have got it from a false source of infomation.

My father served under him in Norway. In there retreat he sensed they were being followed by scouts.

Oh
The more action he saw, the more body parts he lost, and the less of him was left for his enemies to shoot at next time. No wonder he was so hard to kill!

This guy brings a whole new meaning to the term "built different"
Lol fr that is true . The men in ww1 was insane aswell. It was digging n hand to hand combat. The other weapons were straight up artillery lined up. The germans theory was " if you shoot 50 artillery in a area. Its eventually going to hit something". At that time the weapons was primitive. Basically were the name ( No Mans Land ) comes from burned out fields* of 100s of acres . Not noticing it came from artillery from 1 to 2 miles away hiding
@@DeathHelper420 What do you mean the weapons were "primitive." They were modern weapons that killed like twelve million people

@@zaodedong9935 He most likely referred to the clubs and handmade maces soldiers used on trench raids.
You can’t help but respect a man who amputated his own fingers oh and a man who survived both world wars on the frontline
You ever see Dad's Army? Arnold Ridley who played Pvt Godfrey lost the use of his arm after being bayonetted in the first war and then volunteered again as an officer in the second war. He was denied front line service but they still kept him around for logistical service I believe.
Kind of ironic as his character was portrayed as a conscientious objector.
He’s one of da boys taking bullets for his friends country and family fighting for freedom
All while running, headfirst, at the enemies.
@@LoudaroundLincoln Godfrey was indeed a conscientious objector, but he joined the Royal Army Medical Corps as a stretcher bearer and during the Battle of the Somme, he went out into No Man’s Land under heavy fire and saved the lives of several soldiers and was awarded the Military Medal for his efforts.
@@nolanbugg dont about the freedom part tho. He was imperialist.
To know this guy survived all those injuries is as hard to believe as the story of Desmond Doss.
My Great Grandfather was wounded in action in Germany December 4, 1944 on a reconnaissance patrol. He was shredded with machine bullets. 12 bullets. And 5 shrapnel pieces. 17 wounds. He would live on until 1964.

“Frankly I had enjoyed the war”
-Carton de Wiart
What a guy
Reality is crazier than fiction
@@polygonalfortress movie producers: sounds unrealistic, let's tone it down.
People who know the history well: WTF is this? This guy should be way more badass irl.
He enjoyed the war. The FIRST World War. The most horrific one for the soldiers. That guy was batshit insane.
Sounds like an alright guy to me.🤣
Generally, people who enjoy war are psychopaths. A psychopath's brain develops differently regarding sociality and emotions, so they are often confused and unhappy navigating other peoples' emotions in this contrived social construct we call society. When they're in war--where many emotionally healthy people dissociate due to PTSD--the psychopath feels like the world finally makes sense. They live for combat because in war they don't have to pretend to care about other peoples' feelings. If they kill their rivals and take their things, they're rewarded rather than punished. The bond with their brothers in arms is more real to them than any emotion ever was.
Another example of a soldier who wouldn't die is Medal of Honor recipient Matt Urban. He fought in WW2 and kept going AWOL to get back to his men after being wounded. The Germans started calling him "the ghost" because he always kept coming back.
@St Hurley there are more that we probably don't know about that's the sad thing
Another soldier is Matt Chapman, who was shot 16 times fighting the taliban with shrapnel wounds, holding his own, he was a one man army, there is a recording of it and it’s the first Medal of Honor ever recorded of all time.
I read about him in a book that man was an absolute legend
did this inspire COD Ghost?
E 260th that was my first infanty co. Our basic training shirts had urban on them. High standard. That company was also disbanded due to "being too harsh"
There`s a difference between bravery and madness. This man clearly was insane.
Thank god

@@ChaplainPhantasmIn a time of sadness as well
@@snappythesnapster1856 he's an inmortal soldier who finds his home
8:35 you can get brave wounds, but the chance of unbrave ones still exist.
I think my favorite part of this story is the fact that he spent 8 days “hiding” in the village where he escaped from prison. Pretty sure the Italians were checking every guy missing a left arm AND left eye. Still took them 8 days to find him lol
Oh my god! Didn’t think of that!
😂😂
He was a master of trolling lol
ITALIANS KNOW HOW TO PARTY.THIS IS WHERE THE SCREEN PLOT FOR "WEEKEND AT BURNEYS" CAME FROM.DID THEY HAVE THEIR OWN VERSION OF DILUADID?WAS THERE HASHISH?DID THE ITALIANS INTRODUCE THIS GUY TO THEIR SISTERS?
have you ever been to italy??
Fun Fact: One of Napoleon's Marshal Oudinot, receive atleast 34 wounds in battle, 12 of witch where sabre slashes or thrust, 8 of which where gunshot wounds, 1 broken leg and 2 artillery wounds (canister/grape shot wound).
Sabre or bayonets tho?
Men of War.
Human Terminator.
How did he not die!?
gah dawm
First time I hear about him but I'm glad I do. Didn't expect him to be in Poland, my country. As a Pole and an ally, I salute him
I find it kinda amazing that he was able to wander around for 8 days before being recaptured.
Like he's a very distinc individual, idk if there were many Italian peasants who were missing their left eye, left hand, and part of their left ear.

As for the subject of the video he was as tough as old boots to use an old british saying...
What a badass. Not many people can claim to have had a more adventurous life than Adrian Carton De Wiart. A great story of perseverance through his many injuries accumulated during his decorated military career.
You have to remember that this man was born in 1880.
He fought in both World Wars and during the Second World War (when the British Army called him back from Poland) he was literally 60+ years old.
Yet he still came back and fought several campaigns and wars.
How many people can say that today?
Dunno maybe a grand total of 0
None dude .This man deserves a movie
We are close to see people trough walls and using sci fi equippment like in the movies, dont know how many can even TRY
Even if there were more wars none would
Nobody cuz everyone complain about their rights
Every decade a Hero is born. They don't always join a war, but when they do they inspire the generations that come after.

I respect him the most for not letting his disabilities stop him. I've gone through a lot in my life now that's lead me to have a stroke at 24. I escaped my family who imprisoned and noise tortured me for over 13 years, freeing myself and my sister and then climbing up from 11 years of homelessness using a background of psychological knowledge to do so. I used my knowledge of meditation and hypnosis in 2020 to not give up but heal myself entirely and make a full recovery. I've escaped death over 10 times now myself. This man is a great inspiration to keep going when things get hard. Thank you.
I love how he decided to casually just spend time in the Italian town rather than escape the country. What a Chad.

Can you please make a video about Alexey Maresyev? It's a very famous story in Russia and other post soviet countries, but it seems to be virtually unknown in the English speaking countries.
He was shot down while dogfighting and had to crawl in the woods in winter for who weeks with broken legs which later had to be amputated, but after that recovered, regained his health and battled his way back to flying, shooting down more enemies without legs than he did with them.
A Soviet alter-ego to Douglas Bader, it seems. Indeed, his story should be more told.
hmmmm.... is this just some glorified soviet story used for propaganda or something?
There were a lot of these back in the soviet days.
Was a book written about him, that went something along the lines of „A tale of real man”?
Edit: just checked and yeah, it's about him. Great book.
ruclips.net/video/E4vG-F2taU4/видео.html
The video is made by the Infographics show, which is similar to Simple History. After watching the video, I realized that Alexy Mareysev is not only physically strong but also mentally!
@@RyhoLV you might call it glorified, because it became famous after Boris Polevoy, a writer, wrote a book about it called "Tale of a true human", but the story itself is true. In fact, because of the scale and the character of the war on the Eastern war, there were several more similar but lesser known stories of soviet pilots. I don't agree that it is a piece of propaganda. This way story of this british soldier of other western soldiers can also be called just glorified western propaganda, despite them being true. If the story comes from USSR doesn't automatically mean it's propaganda. Feats of heroism were very common amongst red army soldiers because the war waged against soviet union was a war of total extermination and the soldiers knew that. The way those people were raised was also different, because they grew up in most difficult time in history of Russia, with several wars happening which made them stronger in their spirits, but also with major economic breakthroughs such as НЭП and industrialisation bringing hope and enthusiasm. Many civil rights were given to the people such as widespread free education and equality of sexes in the period they grew up which also made those people more eager to fight for their country. Acts of heroism were often acknowledged even by german soldiers in their letters home.
I must say the combat scenes have improved massively these past months
