Generation Kill: Cpl. Ray Person (HBO)

[omgitsjakelang]

at least his mom took him to nascar

[therlihy1]

"... His insight into tactics and what they're doing" -

"Would you please, BACK THE FUCK UP!"

Hehe, great editing.

[Effedup]

"Although peace probably appeals to tree hugging bi-sexuals like you and your parents, I happen to be a death-dealing, blood-crazed warrior who wakes up every day just hoping for the chance to dismember my enemies and defile their civilizations. Peace sucks a hairy asshole, Freddy. War is the mother-fucking answer."

OO-FUCKING-RAH

[BioHazard4Live]

0:49 Person in trololol mode XD

[xCh34pShOtx]

kinda reminds me of me xd

[dbnguyet]

"lack of pussy is the root fucking cause of all global instability"

[AccordGTR]

The US spends on its military more than the Top 15 countries in the World!

(SIPRI) almost $1.7 trillion total spent on defense in 2010.

USA $700B, 42% of total, representing 4.8% of GDP.

2nd place China only spent $119B, just 7.3% of total, only 2.1% of GDP

then UK, France, Russia, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Germany, India. Italy round out the Top 10.

[M1NIONM4N]

"SALAM ALAKUM LADIES!" Go Ray

[adamtequalsgreat]

I read Generation Kill the book after watching the series.  My main reason was that I was absolutely sure that a screenwriter made up Person's lines, and I wanted to verify. Turns out that his monologues in the book are not only as clever, but waaay dirtier. Awesome series

[JarheadSchaetz]

"Nother tire there, nother one with one sandal on"

Colbert- Shut the fuck up, person

[lolnostanku]

I think the Evan Wright in the series is better than the real Evan Wright.

[somethingmemorable1]

As the great warrior poet Ice Cube once said:- "If the day does not require an AK, it is good."

[Belenor]

@somethingmemorable1

warrior poet? you better be shitting me, more like scumbag criminal

[somethingmemorable1]

@Belenor it's a Ray Person quote. Have you seen generation kill?

[USxMarine1024]

Anybody know what MOS Ray was? Was he a Motor transportation Operator?

[FrootLoopAddicted]

yes girls do watch this and they find it awesome. and not all of them are muscled hairy bisons wishing they were part of it. ;)

[emROARS]

@FrootLoopAddicted Like me. Some of my favourite actors were in it plus I come from a forces family (couin in royal guards, dad's in royal navy. I'm british so w/e)

[Speirs248]

Ray beat 14 people up

[iCHARRLZ]

Is it just me, or does the real life Ray look like the Generation Kill Trombley?

[yesiamawizardjonny]

@iCHARRLZ The actor who plays Ray looks more like the real Trombley than the other way around.

[NaturalBornLifeEnder]

What does Whiskey Tango mean?

[brothersinarms1234]

@NaturalBornLifeEnder white trash.....WT is just the military form

[Euclides287]

This guy deserves an Oscar! And I´d say godfather for president! Captain america for vice president! LOL

[yesiamawizardjonny]

@Euclides287 Godfather was a gay fucking asshole. Captain America was a maroon but funny as shit. John Sixta is a Maroon also but I've talked to him on several occasions and he seems like a very nice guy. Sixta is one of those Marines (Like Dan Griego) that Evan unfairly shittalked. Griego and Sixta are both Marines I talk to on a weekly basis who seem to be very nice marines who are very dedicated to their job. Evan Wright got a lot of things wrong.

[Dragon2802]

He looks so different to the actor

[fanguk2]

James Ransone is awesome! Ray constantly killed me with his rapid-fire quips.

[arivas713]

!!!!!!!MAKE MORE, HBO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[VANDRIXX]

@yesiamawizardjonny

Why The Fuck Would You Post Someones Number Who Defended Your Freedoms And Liberty's On Youtube So He Can Get Calls At 2am From Hippy Comunist Fucks Like You?

[yesiamawizardjonny]

@VANDRIXX uh I never called him. Calm down.. Funny how you call me a hippy communist. I'm enlisting in 2 years... fail.

[evildeathmonkey1]

@VANDRIXX Why do you use a capital on every single word? Doesn't make you look very educated..

[VANDRIXX]

@evildeathmonkey1

Why Dont You?

[IrishBagel07]

I love the part where the reporter is saying ray has a good grasp of radio and tactics, and the next scene is when he jumps out of the humvee to yell at the other drivers XD

[Nwise2446]

"Here, I'm dead...alive. I'm dead here..now I'm alive. I'm Dead! Alive! Dead!"

[darkboardfbs]

if this guy wasn't in the movie the movie wouldn't be great....

[1spiket]

unkle ray ray

[roflrocketrofl]

I know a guy named ray whos exactly like this.

[mrxmrx]

this guy did great in the movie Ken Park

[JokerFiveActual]

why did they get a skinny guy to play a ripped guy?

[2cool4uification]

Damn the real ray person is mad ugly.

[masterownedu]

@2cool4uification i think he's gay lol

[gunnerdelta]

"pretty much liberated around here" LOL

He reminds me of Church from Red vs Blue

[alynk2]

@gunnerdelta

Agreed! Because of the way he talks (which I enjoy listening to), he reminded me of RVB too - they know who to call if they ever decide to do RVB live-action ;)

[rtm1137]

"Hey reporter, if you lay with your cock against the ground as a tank rolls by, it feels fuckin GREAT!"

[ikeepmyeyesopen]

@speedguitar88 They got in the fight because while playing football rudy gets offended by Ray saying my sister wants her shorts back! Rudy pushes him (tackles him and scores a touchdown) So ray starts fighting with rudy, rudy kicking rays butt, at the end ray says that he is just like those jock jerks back in high school. Possible meaning he was bullied or teased while in high school.

[keysersozae]

@ikeepmyeyesopen Perhaps, but nothing like that ever happened in the book.

[lakersrdabest]

by far his best line

(brad running around with his shirt off)

ray: did you give him some rolling stone drugs or something?

reporter: no

ray: then what the fuck did you do to him?

reporter: i just asked him what he would be if he werent a marine

ray: oh my god he wants to be a ballerina?? THATS MY FUCKING DREAM!!

[uwlwsrpm]

Watch out, Ziggy ain't no pushover no more.

[Liface]

HOLY SHIT. Colbert looks EXACTLY like Alexander Skarsgard.

[Bred2Protect]

@Liface Yes he does, hence the fact that he actually is lol.

I'm crossing my fingers that you actually knew that..^_^

[Liface]

@Bred2Protect I'm talking about the real Brad Colbert...

[Bred2Protect]

@Liface Oh, I apologise, I haven't seen this video in a long time =/

[Tunechi241]

"Peace sucks a hairy asshole Freddy, War is the motherfuckin answer" lmao

[BaptiseLeGrand]

It's like if Seth Cohen were a Marine. Genius!

[sangyuni96]

the real ray ruined my image of ray in Gkill

[barricade888]

@natvic4 wtf is the problem? its a cool haircut, ill guess u dont have hair at all.

[gojiramonkey]

"Is Captain America fuckin' CRYING??!!" HAHAHA!!! We love you Josh!!!

("Mother...father...fetch me my carpet rake...")

[xnina92x]

@boyd1876 the 2 stands for the platton the 1 for the Team and the alpha for Team A, because Team 1 is split up in alpha and Bravo ( seargent espera, called poke, is Leader of 2.1 Bravo )

[xnina92x]

@boyd1876

[zallmocse]

*gets out of his car*

WOULD YOU PLEASE, BACK THE FUCK UP!

*gets back in*

[Tunechi241]

I don't understand everything (i'm not english) but, is the guy at 1:00 the real Ray Person ? and if he is, by what he is saying, does he looks as funny as his character in Generation kill ? I'd like to know.

[jman40194]

Favorite  Character Hands Down

[boyd1876]

He says 2-1 Alpha....wasn't it 21 bravo?

[barricade888]

What is his hair cut called? i cant fucking find it, but i fucking love it!

[natvic4]

@barricade888 fuck you

[inchwormgreen]

@barricade888 I KNOW i want it to :(

[originalnab]

anyone else hella shocked to see that the real ray is bald?

[ytpguy111]

WOULD YOU PLEASE BACK UP

[linglingjr]

Oh my god that was Pearson? Wow I thought they could hire an actor that looks more like him I mean even the actor that played colbert loomed kinda like him. Its cool actually seeing the guys

[yesiamawizardjonny]

@linglingjr The actor that played Trombley looks kinda like Trombley but in '03 James Trombley looked more like the actor than he does now.

[57world57]

More like Trombley...? MORE LIKE TROMBLEY???

[Destroyer4292]

@57world57 Whopper Jr.

Whopper Jr.

Whopper Jr.

[victorrain]

What's the last thing he said?

[crestbeats]

That's Ziggy from season 2 of "The Wire" lol... He played a total lame i that. Must have made a good impression.. Looks cool, Don't have HBO anymore s I'll have to wait for the DVD's..

[Skier1017]

Will you please; BACK, THE FUCK, UP!

[luckyStrike89ru]

my fav character, after brad.

[villLe]

"Pretty much liberated around here"

[jperson0321]

@THEBIGCAGEY Not only is he funny, but he is also extremely sexy. He also can bench press a school bus and he saves orphan children when not tending his pygmy goat farm and writing efficiency algorithms. Honestly though, he is more of an asshole than funny.

[punisher1990]

Least my mom took me to nascar!

[Bigboi709]

@THEBIGCAGEY The real ray is huge too!

[ErikBarmon]

@THEBIGCAGEY There's a commentary interview with a couple of the real guys hosted by Evan Wright. If you watch that you'll see he's actually pretty funny.

[clayisajedi444]

Such a great show. TOTALLY changed the way I view the Iraq war.

[crazybread]

who are these people going around disliking things?

[crazybread]

@calebinoutlook Which is completely irrelevant to the content of this video. This video is about a TV show/Book/real person, and the actor who plays him. I dont see why anyone would dislike something without probable cause.

[cutekodawsabinila]

is the real Ray like this hilarious?

[lokallize]

i love you fruity rudy

[Mao93]

PERSON :Yeah, they're pretty much liberated around here.

COLBERT :Ray, stay focused. We have a mission.

PERSON :Yeah, some mission..."cross the magic line." :P:D

[KFCwaitress]

Is he the guy who brings "Charms" candy into the Humvee? This guy is way cool to be a marine, i think he should be a comedian.Oh he is!!!

[BSpringsteen48]

@KFCwaitress No that was Trombley.

[OlderG0ds]

hahah I love this guy , definitely my favorite character , next to Brad.

[LamarMatic]

My favorite character on Generation Kill. Love The Wire so of course he reminded me so much of Ziggy - both don't shut up and are hilarious.

[wopendicular]

best character of ne tv series ever well done to the marines n actors in this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[elnegry2008]

na man my favorite ray line in the series (everyone is in a firefight and he gets out of the humvee and says); "would you please, BACK THE FUCK UP!" man when I heard that i laughed so hard...

[TKDgeehun]

This guy is awesome. 

[FDD2012]

my favortie was Tromley or someting like that.

[MagnumPI4]

@FDD2012 trombley was fuckin nuts

[ATSSMOOTH]

josh is a biig guy. he's freakin huge

[AxisOfEternity]

this character is my personal hero

[clayisajedi444]

He was so funny. I got subconciously excited whenever he was in a scene cause he would always say something so stupid... yet so funny.

[mangoman164]

this was one of the funniest tv characters ive ever seen

[paakow111]

Ray made me laugh throughout the entire series he's the funniest

[TheFanofFPS]

what!? The actual Ray is not like Ray in the movie.

[21freeskier21]

@TheFanofFPS I know man, it surprised me too! HEs the only one that doesnt look like the real Ray

[yomejustacandy]

"your dad's a truck driver?"

[xxonebludxx]

he reminds me of chritian bale.

[danconia3873]

His character was my favorite on the show. Hilarious.

[MooseHunter911]

omg Ray hah he is so funny >.>

[yesiamawizardjonny]

At least my mom took me to NASCAR!!!

[spidey20]

his character reminds me of George Luz from band of brothers hehe

[abyssrelm]

lol 1:36

here im dead

alive

dead here

and im alive

im dead

alive

dead

[jim56o45]

That's ziggy from the wire

[queeniegalore]

Hell yes, Ray was the best character in that show. Hot, too.

[xCh34pShOtx]

@queeniegalore I didn't know girls watched this

[HellJumper149]

His scope has nightvision, when using the cope in day light, he puts on the cap, which has a little hole, so he is still able to use the scope without the nightvision flaring up due to to much light, when using the scope at night he would take off the cap, to try and catch as much light as possible.

[sanderieno]

Does anyone know why the scope on his gun has only a tiny little hole? You can see it at 0:33

[skateman1994]

@sanderieno dust cover on his "scope" this is also to block the sun because it stops the glare

[richiesdog]

I have a pair of those sunglasses, they're elvis sunglasses man, came with a huge pair of stick on side-burns, seriously.

[MrHeart12]

whats the name exactly and where can i get them i want a pair

[BlueBassist0630]

"dead....alive....dead....aliv­e"

[cs00024]

ZIGGY!!

[tacticalcity]

Some of the best lines in this film came from him. Him singing Sk8r Boy during the mission brief while taking a leak is classic. Say so much of that kind of stuff in the military. Always made me laugh. Nice to see it in a movie.

[firefatkid]

lol cross the magic line

[Vitulli1970]

"Im doing the best I can... This isn't the Five above La Jolla you know..." Anyone in San Diego was laughing outloud!...

[yesiamawizardjonny]

@Vitulli1970 haha, i go to san diego all the time cuz i live an hour away and my family is down there.

[DoofusFromUranus]

Wow they look nothing alike lol.

[bimboy08]

Mann this guy made me laugh through out the series

[Ultimateup]

Did Ray get bullied at school or something? I just wondering about the scene at the end when they're all playing football and Ray and Rudy have a fight and Ray says "You're just like every Jock at high school." Could anyone explain the meaning of this?

[turisas1234]

I personally like Colbert. I knew a Marine who acted and talked just like him when I was on my first deployment in Iraq.

This entire miniseries is fantastic. Although there's a lot of stuff that makes no sense at all, it's through the eyes of the reporter, so you have to consider that it won't be from a birds eye perspective.

[SebbeLundblad]

If I ever go to war, I want someone like him close to me. He lightens up the mood. When they were on the breaking point about the superior officers retardity, he just kept cool and went on with his talks.

[vercingetorix9]

rofl this guys great.

[killermod0]

ray is my favorite person har har har.

[bobzilla211]

ray person is the best character.

[pitbrand]

I watched this whole series and then found out who this guy is. He was the singer in my high school band but I didn't recognize him in this film. The funny part is I was rolling and really enjoyed his character but I think many guys played very well in this documentary.

[fljosh12]

Dude thats tight hes my favorite

what is he like in person

anything like the character

[kaikahitonari]

"dead.... alive... I'm dead.. now I'm alive... dead alive dead ali"

"Ray, whats your point?"

"...i was just trying to cheer you up.."

[xXGawdLykeXx]

@kaikahitonari *Insert quote here and collect thumbs up*

[cutipie1049]

@kaikahitonari what episode is this from i cant seem to find it lol

[kaikahitonari]

@cutipie1049 i dunoo i wanna watch this series so bad, but the HBO in my country doesnt have it :(

[cutipie1049]

@kaikahitonari aww well this is a very good series!!:))

[Thor90125]

He's a good actor, great in "The Wire" too.

[xr3verendx]

i definitely love this character ,but he looks nothing like the real guy while alexander he somewhat looks like sgt. colbert. lol

[SpecialOpsM4]

haha this is my favorite character by far.  "Would you please back up!!" hahah

[otherguy5]

Best damn depiction of what it's like, what goes on, in a Marine platoon.

Semper Fi

[Phoenix258]

Does anyone know the music from the first few seconds of this video?

[MEGAANONYM09]

LOL............. Funny guy :D

[thereapers13]

if he is a marine where is his haircut time to get one once every week

[aznwolf106]

victims huh?? dead guys don't talk...

[patriot4lyf33]

lmao here im dead, here im alive, dead alive dead alive

[Omnininja2]

Ray is the best character.

Ever.

[ladyflatbread]

Agreed.

[crazyjuice119]

"some mission cross the magic line"ahahahahha such a funny dude

[EliteOM3G4]

I look at this and I still think it's not "the true story"

[decaydancelover710]

i watched all of these episodes in a 7 hr marathon one night, and everything he said just made me laugh hysterically. but the last episode where he sort of freaks out demonstrates his acting ability, that he's not just a funny guy.

[lordlane4]

yah the last episode when ray freaks out wat was up with that? i never understood that

[GermanicReich]

He was probably bullied in school and Rudy represented those who did that to him, that's why he says your just like those fkn jocks in school when he freaks out.

[skylershaye]

one of the best scenes in the series is on episode 7 at the football game where ray blew his top off..the image of him tearing up and wiping his tears furiously just means that even the most happy go lucky guy can be affected by war...

[bananarana1]

wath is the movie name ?

[PDAclubPL]

Generation Kill

[21freeskier21]

its actually not a movie, its a seven part series

[amuricafuckyeah]

it's a miniseries called 'generation kill'. it aired on HBO

[n8vySEALspwn247]

James Ransone i think just is great in this role, he jus makes Ray the loveable character. Great Book, and GREAT TV SERIES!!!

[davey7678]

Weird...the actor couldn't have come off more like the guy he was portraying- but he still made the series.

[doodskie999]

let the hajis hit the floor

[GotStriked]

He is the best actor there and he is hell funny

[taemosolid]

evan wright looks like meesh!

[WONDERWIESS]

THO THUMBS UP

[lilsan54]

rayyy! i love this guy, and this show.

[you2be321]

love this show... and ray is awesome

[jaythugs4shakur]
