- “I’m blind in one eye, partially deaf, my right arm doesn’t work and I’ve got brain damage. Oh, and my left leg’s missing too. Apart from that, I’m alright.”
Paul Vice MC spent 16 years in the Royal Marines before his career came to a shattering halt when he was caught in the blast of an IED while on his fourth tour of Afghanistan.
So severe were his injuries, he died twice on the Chinook that took him back to Camp Bastion for the surgery that saved his life.
Please take a few minutes to listen to his remarkable story.

The fact that this dude just said “oh yeah, my legs missing” just shows how much he has been through
I was admiring his chin up attitude about it.
"Yeah arm doesn't work, my brains knackered and my leg's off." as he casually describes serious medical injuries
@@ShockwaveTheLogical exactly
@@ShockwaveTheLogicalseriously a true real badass

I'm a trauma nurse, and I have saved hundreds of people, and I loved it. Got diagnosed with cancer, can't do it anymore, and it breaks my heart not being able to save people like I use to. I understand the loss of the only career you have ever known and loved, mourning the body you had, staring at death, and crying alone and moving on with your day. I'm glad you got a second shot at life. I hope I get mine.
i wish you luck and a good life 🙏
I pray you are blessed and have a massive recovery at a record pace! Sending love your way! Get well!
You gave all that healing and now it's your turn to receive it
You were a guardian angel to many. God would always take care of his people. You would find peace my friend. In this life and the next one❤
You will pull through, please believe it. Tell your self everyday that you'll beat it, never think you'll give in. Your body does amazing work when you think striong. I believe you will beat it!
He's got more zest for life than many of us without disabilities. Mad respect.
When you you’ve been blown up twice and still live I think anyone would have a zest for life.
You learn to appreciate what you have so much more when you think you're about to lose everything and suddenly that's not the case.
Seriously? I understand what you mean. We should complain less about inconveniences, but also that doesn't mean we are inferior and making bad choices if we aren't happy and with such a zest. He even acknowledged, he'd rather keep all he has than get PTSD.
Now, do you think it takes bombs to develop PTSD? Of course not.
In other words, action-reaction. Those of us who are lifeless aren't this way for no reason.
Many of us have wounds, pains, worse than what he went through in his life, even though we were never tlat a war.
If he speaks, laughs, then he's not really disabled in one sense, just like you'd say "if you have all your limbs then you're not disabled."
Like him, I'd say, give me a life where I can say "I loved ever minute of it" like he said, and then have my limbs taken away. Than a life where you hate every minute of it.
It's not about him making a choice, not to hate every day, it's actually that life wasn't that bad to him.
Mental and emotional injuries are not to be dismissed. Or imagine people who are innocent but locked in prisons. Where they keep their limbs. But how can they have a seat for life? Even when proven innocent and released, you've lost a decade, now what? Or, like this veteran said, he loved being a soldier, but then lost parts of his body. Which one would you choose? I'd choose losing limbs after having fun over losing a decade in prison.
You said it all
Yeah, I wonder if he has tinnitus. Mine got worse 2 months ago after 10 years, it is driving me nuts :(
Disgusting that the government sends these lads to go fight pointless wars and expects charities to pick up the pieces.
That's life, if other countries don't fear us they would be on our shores. It is disgusting, i agree with you. We make the best out of a shitty situation. It's either us or them and I choose us just as the creeps in the government do.
@@jessehellakoo who fears us? We’re being invaded on a daily basis and welcoming them with open arms!
Why isnt this the top comment.
Senseless comment, he says he enjoyed being a Soldier.
@@EsteparioTrucksyou’ve missed the point
This guys mindset is literally bomb proof. Some people are just cut from a different cloth aren’t they. Real life hero. Hats off to you sir
no, he's cut from the same cloth as every other US imperialist killer. Cannon fodder for corrupt politicians and corporates.
He said he was there for the freebies, more of a mercenary than a hero. Glad he survived though.
@@navsofour2892mercs can be heroes too.
Im a disabled former paramedic. I just wanted to say this man is an inspiration to me after hearing his story.
John, you are also an inspiration to me. Thank you
Thank you for your sacrifices John, I salute you ✨
May God remember what you’ve done when the day comes
🙏🏽 thank you for your service, sacrifice, YOU are an inspiration also just by short saying your old job.
the fact that he was worried more about losing his job than dying is just amazing
Marines man.
downright stupid
@@GuardDog42 So did we eliminate the bad guys in Afghanistan?
@@navsofour2892 Was that the point?
@@GuardDog42 The point is that somebody answer the question.
Hey bro. I am a veteran myself ( USMC ) Just wanted to let you know that I couldn’t be more proud to call you my my brother. It’s people like your self that give marines a good name. You are the perfect example of how strong we are mentally and physically. Thank you for sharing your amazing story .
Royal marines are cool af too
Strong but stupid. Waste life for someone greedy
The Marines have a good name??? Lmfao there is nothing good about destabilizing a large part of the globe for business interests.

What a great young man, I don't need to say more
Deads ryd gratiings from Holland
Shame he had to go through all his for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
Tony Blair/Alaistair Campbell’s legacy of war lies.
You rhyt
@@jamessones4044ots of people did. But I’m still glad the man’s alive and able to tell his story. We’ve all been lied to on both sides of the pond and yes it’s unfortunate. We expected better from our representatives but sadly it turned out that they only represent themselves. Admirable that this man never quits pushing.
Yes, I could not find the right words..so thank you
When going thru his list of injuries, he said "oh yeah my leg, my leg is missing" this dude is a soldier & next level, salute to him & those alike, God bless their spirit
"It's a shame, but it happens doesn't it..." Dude, you are one brutally impressive son of a gun, I'll give you that. Despite not being British, that phrase alone, along with the injuries you managed to recover from are just crazy, and you've certainly earned everyone's respect.
He said he was there for the freebies though, more of a mercenary than a hero.
Hey cheers to you Mate! I'm a disabled US Army Veteran. I've had multiple deployments to Iraq, Africa and Afghanistan. On April 11th 2011 our unit was ambushed by anti coalition militia forces, Haqqani and Taliban, in Kunar Province, Pech River Valley, Afghanistan. During the engagement I was severely wounded. Thankfully they were able to save my life all of my limbs, although I had multiple surgeries, years of rehabilitation etc.(Many of our guys weren't that lucky.) But the biggest blow for me, is that it put a big fat cross ❌ over my military career.
Anyways, all I wanted to say, that stories like that are indeed huge inspiration for many. Keep up the great work. 👍
Thank you for your service
Hello sir, I wanted to serve, but they found out I was diabetic and I could not. My uncle was in the 101st Airborne during Vietnam. He survived thankfully. ALL of our military deserves our highest respect and honor and thank you also ! Thank you for serving America!
I’m just still amazed, how veterans can be so enthused about being used as tools for money profiting. I always have been very patriotic and would’ve done anything for my country but now we KNOW beyond a shadow of a doubt that war is all just made up for the elite to profit.… I would be hanging my head down. But then again, that’s where we see who ones master truly is.. satans or the creators
@@kystars Thank you. I also served with 101st ABN, 1BCT, 1/327 infantry. Ft. Campbell, Kentucky is one boring place though. Not much to do, on your 'Off' time. Besides that, 101st is a great division.
Thank you sir no one can understand the pain and loss you went through JUST YOU! Keep on keeping on find what works for you. God bless you richly becausenyou were spared for a reason. Thank you again. 🤗😊🤗😊🤗
It's guys like this that make me proud to be British, what a humble guy
Why when it’s the Americans who have to save your sorry asses EVERY FUCKING TIME😂
Moral of the story. Don't invade people countries like Putin
and don't fight wars for oil and minerals.
Or you could end up like this brave young man or worse
Proud American here and happy to have met some of y’all while over there. I was army infantry. Pray for our country I’ll pray for y’all bud
@@hectichazerdusmoral of the story some of us are warriors. Some of us aren’t shit and are bitter towards those that can or did do. Wtf would you have had us do after 9/11? You don’t cow down to a bully, you kick his fn ass! I can tell your probably another muslim turd that probably touches little boys. You know how much of that shit I had to see while over there!? Muslims fn little boys because that’s ok as long as it’s not a woman.

So did we eliminate the bad guys in Afghanistan?
@@habazlambazazathe6th989 kind of he said he was there for the freebies.

He talks about his critical injuries that he has to live with like they’re not a big deal. What an incredible human being!
He is amazing i was feeling low myself till i watch this now i have given myself a kick in the ass to live the best you can.
Oh yes there was about 400 bits of shrapnel...and his 1st explosion he was in 'it was no big deal' a top lad indeed
This is the type of person we should prop up as a role model. Forget about sports guys, actors and rappers, this man is a REAL MAN, A REAL HERO, A REAL ROLE MODEL and he is damn impressive! Thank you for your service and sacrifice sir!
I agree 100%
Totally agree. Football millionaires running around the pitch, people buying their overpriced shirts all over the world. Give me a break. These are the real men in every sense.
You shouldn't have to get permanently disabled and have your life ruined to be considered a "real man" lol that's insanity. This is real life not a movie.
I guarantee this guy would not recommend you do what he did, for obvious reasons. He is not an example of anything but what to avoid in life.
Go hail russian soldiers in Ukraine then
Some people are made from a different kind of metal. I have no other words to describe this guy.
You took the words out of my mouth.
Man I had a commander that took some shrapnel to his ankle from and IED in Iraq. He was the same with the pain. About 10 years after he was sent home he told them to just take his foot off because it hurt so much. After he said it felt so much better to just not have a foot. Much respect from me. Was definitely cool serving with guys from other countries when I was in Iraq.
I believe 23andme dna research concluded that a person is born with either a Sedentary muscle, nomadic muscle or warrior muscle, the ones that rubs to help a person in danger was born like that, may be compassionate heart is a choice to develop
'cool' serving while commiting war crimes for some rich snob back home? you people are weird

What an amazing young man
I’m a disabled vet so I understand his story and believe he is amazing
GODS SPEED TO HIM
thanks slime
Mental health is far more destructive than physical health. Losing your career and comrades is worse than losing a limb. This man is a hero in every sense. It sounds like he was determined to survive and remained calm.
He said he was there for the freebies, more of a mercenary than a hero. Glad he survived though, he got the lottery.
@@navsofour2892Probably British humour mate

Why is he an exceptional human being? Because he almost died in his 16 years of murdering Afghan children?
@@assasinpatates8066No, because he almost died, lived to tell it and had amazing courage and determination. this dudes head was hanging off and he says he doesn’t have PTSD, do you know how much mental strength you have to have for that?
Wish the US honored its Vets as much as the UK😢 Thank God they are valued🙏💕🙏
The courage of the British Soldiers is next to nothing, It's an honor knowing that the British people are an ally of America. Much love from the USA to the British soldiers and people!
1:50 Show a presence in another mans country in another mans village lool.
And you guys praise these illegal invasions. Jheez i bet you have the convid vax too?
The only difference is that the public don't give a toss about British troops or the injuries they come home with unlike the US who seem to respect veterans
I can’t even describe how much respect I have for this man. I salute you, Sir!
You actually aren’t alllowed to salute him
@@Gefbcddhhvxdon’t care we salute him anyway 🤫🤫
Words are not enough to describe how incredible this individual is.
A WAR HERO??? HOW MANY KIDS N WOMEN HAVE THEY KILLED.. AND FOR WHAT.... AT THE END OF THE DAY FOR WHAT..... THEY WERE USED AS CANNON FODDER. THEY JOIN ARMY TO RISK LIFE TI DIE... AND HE TALKS OF TOUR... TOUR OF WHAT..... WHY WE NEVER LEARN OF IRAQI AND AFGHANI KIDS N WOMEN THAT THEY DESTROYED. KILLED.... U DESTROY A WHOLE COUNTRY.... AND WHATS HIS DEFINITION OF BAD GUYS.. THEY KEEP SAYING BAD GUYS. COULD THE BAD GUYS BE ORDINARY CIVILIANS TRYING TO DEFEND THEIR OWN COUNTRY FROM AN ILLEGAL INVASION. WHY DID THEY INVADE IRAQ.... IRAQ DID NOTHING TO US.... AND THE IRONY THEY THEN GO ON ABOUT UKRAINE....... SO LET US ALL GET REAL... ALL THESE WARS FOR GLOBALIST ELITE COOPERATIONS
Incredible for what.... Killing innocebt iraqi civilians. Iraq did nothing to us. Maybe u should learn about the innocent iraqi civilians who were mutilated killed raped murdered. Then u will know the real heroes.
What is remarkable? He said he was there for the freebies, more of a mercenary than a hero.
WHAT A LEGEND, true hero we love you mate for tryingbto protect us from terrorism and bad people
He has to be one of the strongest person I've ever listened to.
Thank you for your service to your country and being joined with my country 🇺🇸❤
Man really said "I wasnt gong to letmy disability define me" and won an oylmpic medal, thats more than "not letting your disability define you"
Brother I am American,we love you Brother,your service to your country and the free world will always be remembered. thank you sir,your a f*****g warrior,glad and thankful your home.
I second that.
Im a swede and military trained but have never seen combat. To me you are the biggest hero🙏. Shameful you had to leave the military.

This man survived an IED, I'm sending respect. This guy is a survivor. A bad ass hard-core veteran. I hope he's doing more than well, I hope he's having an awesome life!
Yeh.. so badass…😒 fighting a war his own government orchestrated for greed. Innocent lives lost, homes demolished, children left orphaned, so much destruction. He’s oblivious.
What a true hero! Thank you for your service sir. We'll wishes and good thoughts only . From 🇺🇸🇺🇸
I watched this guy in the marines series in Afghanistan. So brave and a real soldier🙌🏽
Yea was a great show.....awesome to see he's still Vicey hahah

This man is an inspiration ! You’ve kept living life on your terms and let nothing stop you. This guy is a warrior no doubt, thank you for your service 🫡🪙💜
God Bless You Brother, you are a true hero! 🫡🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
keep in mind all comments, your seeing him make it out the other side. I guarantee you over the years of excruciating pain recovering, no doubt there would be grief and feeling his life has no purpose. God Bless you mate
He still has his lovely face no one can take that away from him glad you can still see and hear and what ever damage you have i the brain it does not show when you are talking you are a total legend .
Royal Marines are a different breed& I’m grateful for them
Man, whenever you ask these guys if they enjoyed being a warfighter, they all say they would go back in a fucking heartbeat. Badass dudes.
What incredible mental strength this soldier displays. Such an inspiration. "It's not what happened to you, it's the story you tell yourself about what happened to you".

It could just be me, but I find it insane how at the beginning of the video he says “what’s not to like” about the job, and then he continues to say how he snapped his neck, went blind, went deaf, has brain damage, lost a leg etc etc… while doing that job. thank you very much for your service none the less

Genuinely good people are 1 in a million these days. Hat's off to this man
A true hero indeed.
My great grandfather served in WWI and my grandfather lied about his age to join the Army TWO YEARS BEFORE PEARL HARBOR and served in the Air Force for 28 years. I'm a retired Army veteran. I lost my left leg in a training accident right after Desert Storm. You have my utmost respect. Thank you very much for your service and sacrifice. Cheers from America.
He said he was there for the freebies though, would not compare to your grandpa. Beware of comparison between heroes and mercenaries mentalities.
@navsofour2982
After reading your comment enough times I had to reply.
At a young age from his first tour he was a marine because he loved his job (not on tour, just general life) he was like any young soilder. After his second tour and seeing his mates around him being killed, seeing the taliban sending women and children forward and hiding behind them, he grew a deep founded hatred for them. Not a mercenary, a soldier fighting for the same reason the British military were there.
@@navsofour2892 There are no freebies in the military, he was being sarcastic... oh and you are a moron.
@@twistiefe He specifically mentioned the freebies so i guess by your own rule he is the moron, and by extension then you.
@@NxploHD why do you need to answer there is nothing to answer. You are seeking justification against your own self. Like if the military wouldn't carry assassins or mercenaries, like the bankers & politicians do crooks. Don't build exceptionalism where there isn't. It just puts yourself in the wrong bag.
My God this man us a true war hero and someone who we can all look up to for inspiration...period.
Don't put yourself down saying your brains knackered. You come across as sharp and switched on. Typical RM. Keep on smiling and racing. Inspiration to listen to that. Well done you.
The fact that he said he would rather live the way he is now than trade it for severe PTSD says a lot about how powerful emotions are.
Thoughts dictate emotions and emotions dictate the your physical behaviour. Absolutely everything is your mental health. Its so, so important
I’ve never seen somebody cry and it made me cry..NEVER! Until today.
this man loves being a soldier, i dont see much people who do after they suffer traumatic events serving
I cannot believe how positive you are Paul.. words cannot describe how amazing you are
He’s a strong man, but all the graphic injuries he suffered, there’s no way he doesn’t suffer from PTSD.
I agree. It often doesn't manifest itself for years.
Ehat u feel with ptsd?
I’m a psychology student and it really does depend on the person, their genetics, their personality, and the way they were raised. Someone could go through something as horrific as this and never end up suffering with PTSD.
Thank you for your service 🇺🇸🏅. You didn’t die bc the Lord still has plans for you on earth 💖👵🏻👩🌾❣️
Amazing bloke ! Shows how incredibly resilient we humans are. Respect,and all the best !
The care and concern displayed by the medical professional at 00:35 is next level wholesomeness.
Serves a dual purpouse, it also helps them get out of anesthesia faster
this guy is a living legend. absolutely unbelievable what he has been through.
What a incredible man! He was meant to survive because he has got so much positivity about and he is living his life to the full & he deserves that for being so brave ❤
What an inspiring young man. A true real life hero!
My thoughts go out to the men, women and children of Afghanistan who suffer horribly to this day because of war.
Its sad that most of Americans will never appreciate his sacrifice!! Respect to you sir!!! I take my hat off to you and thank you for your service!
i do
@@artvandelay837 nerd
He's been through all that and is adamant he's not suffering from PTSD and yet there are people claiming PTSD because somebody's hurt their feelings.
Thank you for your service brother! Much love from the states 👊🏼
Great mind-set and determination. Inspirational.
Paul mentioned an important fact within this dialogue that, "charities are the backbone of the injured veterans community", and that's a sad fact. Sad, as our government do nothing and offer very little help (if any) to our veterans - it's a sorry state of affairs.
I have died twice to God has a plan for all of us that died and came back to life
Can’t help but feel very humbled listening to this very brave incredible man what an inspiration to all walks of life not just the military casualties but everyone may god bless you
This man is a an inspiration. I wish I had half his positivity. What a hero👏
You are a hero

The description of the IED. The sheeps carcass....awfully brutal. The depths of human evil knows no bounds
Absolute Hero! Can't even describe how proud we are of our veterans.
Watched the series about his unit's deployment to Afghanistan here on youtube that also covered his evacuation from the battlefield. This guy is a true warrior and hero.
Salute you from former Irish soldier; keep inspiring others. ❤🙏
This absolute unit of a man doesn't even have PTSD. So much respect.
I remember watching the 'Royal Marines: Mission Afghanistan' and was always worried about what Paul's long term outcome was. Such a character and I am so pleased to see he's doing what appears to be better than alright at face value. I hope to see you go from strength to strength.
I'm American, and I greatly respect the American military as well as the British military and our allies. I watched this entire video about this man. He is a hero God bless him. He has that rare thing inside him that keeps him motivated no matter what. Good for him! I almost had my left leg amputated 3 different times, but I kept telling them NO. I was right, I still have my leg. Good luck to him always!
Brother all of our finest were sent over to those deserts for absolutely nothing. Trillions spent, millions of Iraqis dead and thousands of our boys - for absolutely sweet nothing.
He said he was there for the freebies, more of a mercenary than a hero. Glad he survived though but not any mention to God nor anything for the miraculous result.

Thank you for your service.. forever a hero to your beautiful country. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Sir for your Service. You’re a walking miracle a testament to your courage and bravery but especially the skill and dedication of the Drs, nurses and surgeons who helped you through it. The first step was the medics on the ground and especially in the helicopter who never gave up on you.
Respect to you and your fellow service men and women. Lest we forget 🌹
You are the definition of a true ☆HERO☆!!!
"I don't think I have PTSD but you can't experience the things we have and come back normal"
You just disproved yourself mate
Was an MP and my dad was in the army before me. Came across lots of soldiers and all are heroes and you are living proof of them. I have found that most UK civvies do not respect or appreciate the military like the US does and they should be ashamed. These armchair warriors should watch your movie and hang their heads in shame, as they would not have the guts to do what you did or the agonies you have gone through on their behalf. God bless you my brother.
This man’s resilience and grit to crack on, amazing
I love how as soon as you were back to any kind of normality, you were ready to test yourself physically and mentally. 👊 Strong as hell
