  • CAUTION SMOKING KILLS NEVER ACCEPT A CIGARETTE FROM ANYONE, ESPECIALLY LT. SPEIRS

  • And Ronald Spiers said "Let there be Chuck Norris!" and so it was.

  • For Gregor.

  • Gregor!!!

  • he should have ran to berlin while he was at it and shoot hitler and return

  • @capenati return? no next was Mussoliney

  • R.I.P Lt Speirs, your a true american hero

  • @1singrid Actually, he's Scottish.

  • @berserker276 -_- but he fought for and lived in america so therefore hes an american hero

  • @1singrid No, because to be an American hero he'd have to be born in America. Therefore, he's a Scottish hero.

  • @berserker276 lol watever, im not gonna argue it

  • @1singrid Good, good.

  • That was a man who was devoted to the American people he should have been a marine. Urah!

  • @SLAW3LL haha, no offence but you spelled OORAH wrong. Just wanted to let you know so you don't embarrass yourself when signing up.

  • @ThatWierdoAsianGuy ok thanks, but how would that embarres myself when signing up it's not like they make u take a spelling test for the Marines to make sure u spell it right. lol

  • Anyone else hear his balls clanging?

  • @JFEIII1 at 0:48 u can see his balls on his chest.

  • I don't really cared of he killed those POW's this shit if awesome!

  • i bet he passed out cigaress to the germans while he was out there

  • @Nickbol09 lol

  • @Nickbol09 I heard there were 30

  • cool 

  • People. All these things did really happen. THE MAN IS A HERO!!!

  • Fucking balls,most respect ive ever had for anyone

  • Chuck Norris's dad...

  • @olliewest Chuck Norris's dad and mentor on how to be fearless.

  • he's a honey badger, he doesnt give a shit

  • "BEWARE.SMOKING KILLS.NEVER ACCEPT A CIGARETTE FROM ANYONE."

  • Fav. characther

  • Was this a true what he did in this scene?

  • Comment removed

  • @Desperadounico yes the real Lt Speirs actually did this :D I'm proud that he was born not far from me in Edinburgh before moving to the States

  • freaking outstanding, All the way, Airborne, hooah

  • LT Spears, this country owes you a major debt

  • Are we sure that Spiers isn't Chuck Norris' grandfather? He sure sounds like it.

  • Lt. Speirs had a son. They call him Chuck Norris.

  • "LEROYYYYYY JENKINSSSSSS!!!!!!!!"

  • @bhsbuck12 This comment couldn't be more perfect for this video.

  • ja ja the best part

  • spiers' sack must be huge to carry those balls of steel

  • 0:19 best scene xD

    the nazis see him but they are surprised

    but the funniest thing is that speirs was the commander of the war crimes prison in spandau^^

  • Did he won his silver star for this action?

  • i have to say spears was one of my favouties

  • can some one please tell me how him running over helped? iv been puzzled for ages about this and it ruins the scene for me because it seems so pointless.

    please explain???

  • @isthisnameabittolong E Company was pinned down because they were following the orders that Lt. Dyke gave them. I Company was coming in from a different direction than E Company was. However, neither company had a way to communicate with one another the change of plan when the assault started. Spiers went to I Company and relayed the plan to them. He could've stayed with I Company and fought his way back to E Company, but instead he ran back to his man to finish the fight with them.

  • I know nobody wants to hear this here, but in real battle it is not very smart to do something like that, as brutal as it may seem his life is worth more than the life of a simple private. thats why he should have send a private to do the job same reason winters wasn't allowed to go into battle. still pretty cool though

  • @STEHH87 the adrenalin waspumping and if u havent noticed its called 'band of brothers' so hes not gonna sent one of his friends or even a private he doesnt know on a suicide mission.

  • best part of this show

    wonder if it really happened..

  • @MaTchBoOkPoEt It did. Actually did; many men from E Company recall it. Also, none of them are really sure whether Spiers actually did kill those POWs. He never told them a straight answer.

    Lt. Ronald Spiers was the original badass.

  • @ImNotSimon I have not personally read it's said that in Winters biography he recalled that Speirs DID kill 6 german POWS, did shoot one of his own sergeants for disobeying orders under fire, and did charge a fortified german artillery position on D-Day.

  • @tacticalsabre

    That's mentioned in Winters' autobiography 'Beyond Band of Brothers', but he's not 100% on either of the killing rumours. Guarnere is much more upfront about not taking prisoners in his memoir.

  • 0:19

    Notice that THE FUCKING TANK GETS OUT OF THE CRAZY BASTARD'S WAY.

  • @AbsentIntelligence the tank didnt see him. its not cod u know

  • @scids225

    Cod? Whatever gave you the idea that I thought that this depiction of a real life event during the second world war was not that, but a rather pointy looking fish that lives in cold water?

    It doesn't matter whether he was seen or not. Whoever was inside the tiger felt his presence and knew better than to stay in the way.

    BTW, it's fucking retarded how when you google "cod" you have to go four entries down to get to the fucking fish.

  • And the Award for "Biggest What The Fuck?!" moment of WW2 goes to....... Lt. Spiers

  • Lt. Speirs- chuck norris' uncle.

  • the story is actually true. that dude never got killed and he was in several life threatening situations. (not so unusual in war but still)

  • how did he not get the medal of honor for this, im pretty sure this would count

  • @bhsbuck12 i have no idea, if they didn't give it to him, then whoever they gave it to must be one hard core S.O.B.

  • Died: April 11, 2007, in Valley County, Montana near Glasgow. In the USA

  • Speirs is a legende!!!!

  • Ronald Speirs born april 20 1920 in Edinburgh, Scotland moved to boston 1924 died on April 11 2007 near Glasgow, Scotland

  • @GameChinock ahh no wonder he was crazy, hes scottish! haha

  • epic

  • Speirs is a fuckin legend!

  • If we has a thousand of him this whole war on terror would have been over years ago.

  • If we had a thousand of him, this whole war on terror would have been over years ago.

  • John Basilone of the army

  • get chills everytime..

  • Spears is insane...or he just had fearless commitment to his duty as a soldier

  • He was rocking marathon pro, Cold blooded and Ninja pro blatantly for this scene.

  • @m01927 Yes and this is what we call The Call of Duty MW2 Addict Sickness!

    YOUR sO FACKING ADDICTED!!

  • @yiannickieboy As are you, if the horrible spelling/grammar serves as a symptom. Which it should, seeing how MW2 fanboys ARE more often than not braindamaged/12-years old.

  • @SuperPekka i dont queit get you...

    I know my grammar will be shit, cause im 14 years old (NOT A STUPID 12 YEAR OLD IM ALMOST 15) i still study english class at school. but what do you mean?

    peace

  • @yiannickieboy Oh nothing, I was just pointing out how most MW2 are children. Case on point I suppose.

  • @SuperPekka no im not a mw2 player, i hate that game.

  • thats what you call a true soldier

  • tear in my eye every time I see this...

  • this guy has balls of steel covered in kevlar and lazarz

  • Fuck lead!!! Speirs balls were made of kevlar coated in steel and he could shoot bolts of lightning from his ass much like william wallace

  • Like what kind of crazy mofo would do that? wanna cigarette? XD

  • The most amazing thing is that this is more than a story and the man did this is real life

  • HAXXXOOOR!! ;D

  • One of the most badass moments in the whole series...I looped it so many times. Unbelievable guy, unbelievable run 8Db

  • The scene where he guns down the germans with his thompson is badass x) :P

  • "and the best part was ... he came back"

    ballin!!!!

  • One of the best moments of the series, it never fails to put a smile on my face.

  • barrydurcan Rocks !!!

  • how i love you lt. speirs.... you were death on two legs.

  • he came back

  • the perfect band of brothers moment

  • 2nd Lt. Lipton :):)

    Great !!

  • xD 0:20 ''wtfudge?!'' XD

  • He´s the badest badass that has ever badassed the planet.

    SPIERS ROCKS!!!!

  • Speirs is teh best

  • i heard the only thing he was thinking when he ran through foy was "run".

  • the germans r probaly thinking what the hell

  • lol ya they were like O_O Um....do we shoot? Or do we....um....let him run??

  • what a hero! I wish i had the guts to do what he did...

  • It takes a lot to lead, especially such a group as the one portrayed in this series.

  • Don't forget it's very dangerous to turn around and shoot towards your own lines. You could easily hit one of your own side.

    Once he had crossed the German line they probably didn't know what to do and decided it was safer to let him run through their lines.

  • @JoJo72X

    you are one big fat idiot ; - )

  • @JoJo72X wtf r u talking about..its war u idiot danger is involved incase u didnt no

  • that's true. it's easy to be captured by his myth though.

  • Comment removed

  • fuckin hero!!!!! great respect....  : )

  • tell that to his face

  • One of my favorite parts of this great series. One hell of a soldier, and one hell of a man.

  • Spears is the fuckin man!!!.... wana cigarette??

  • @Evilde4d4sh eeh i think i pass : O

  • Pls.can anyone explain me that..i dont understand why lt.spiers go trought town..he goes to another company..?.and why he return back?

  • cuz he's the fuckin man!

  • During this battle (Foy,Germany), Capt. Richard Winters ordered LT. Speirs to relieve"Foxhole Norman" Dike of command. To countermand this order, Speirs himself ran through the town and German lines (as this platoon had no radio), linked up with the other soldiers, and relayed the order. Having completed this, he proceeded to run back through the German-occupied town. Spiers was reassigned as commanding officer of Easy Company and remained in that position for the rest of the war.Retired Lt.Col

  • * (Foy, Belgium)

  • the germans r like wtf

    i crap my pants when i saw this on tv this is 1 of my favirate shows

  • My Hero!

    and hes soo frekin HOT aswell

  • legend tells that lt. ronald spiers had balls made out of pure lead

  • destructo balls of lead?balls of steel buddy,he had some big ass balls.i laughed when i saw the emotions on the germans face lmao their like :O

  • @destructopoo i heard he made the run pushing two wheelbarrows in which he carried his balls.

  • wtf!? video games wernt invented yet!?? - wheres the lil fat kid controlling him? - gamers know what im talking bout!

  • nah...we actually don't

  • This guy is my Hero!!!

  • Spears. A man who understands "Why go around when I can just run through?"

  • crazy mother fucker but gotta respect him.

  • that guy is class the best lt there by far

  • Comment removed

  • spiers is freakin awesome

  • Speirs was awesome :D and a very lucky guy..

    any1 wants a cigarrette? :D

  • *piss my pants*

  • The truth is most people can't hit a moving target without a lot of luck. A true born warrior like Spears probably knew that the combination of surprise and speed would keep him safe. Since he had gigantic balls of solid steel and a decisive temperament, he coolly made his move to link up and give orders to his cut off men. You can train and train a soldier but that sort of war-sense is inborn, not made.

  • God I love Speirs

  • name of the battle is foy not coy

  • Jesus H Christ. Sand-dragging brass balls.

  • cant help but laugh alwayse gives me goosebumps

  • the germans must been like what ..the ..fuck !!!!!!

  • sheesh...this man's testicles had testicles

  • This man was a hero, pure balls RIP RS.

  • from boston and maine! CHEA

  • SPEARS!! VOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!

  • He's a Legend

  • speirs is amazing,

  • if i saw this and i was german i would be jaw dropped lol

  • This actually happened and i heard a story that the germans dint shoot at him first because they thought he was a medic for the germans.

    I really dont know if the germans thought he was a medic or that they where shocked.

    But what i do know is that Speirs is a hero.

  • lol that german guy's like: what the fuck?

  • If this actually happened, I would LOVE to hear what the Germans thought.

  • to william

    i thought it did because the series is made of true stories

  • It actually did happen which is kind of fucked up. Speirs was one crazy mother fucker.

  • one things for sure-

    it takes real balls to do what he did

  • Wow...

  • too bad for the germans

  • i have seen a similar situation in afganistan when i was with the greek army

  • wut happened?

  • lol, pretty fucking badass. what happened was, there were 2 groups on each side of this little battle. so this crazy motherfucker right here run all the way threw the germans group, hooks up with our friends on the otherside and then runs all the way back threw the germans. basically running past all these germans just to go talk to the americans on the otherside of town.

  • Hardcore, seriously. I bet you could write a book about that situation, damn wish there was a movie of just speirs, that would be awesome

  • What is the name of the song when he is running back?

  • yuss, hes scottish :D

  • If that guy ran across in front of me, I would have done they same thing they did. I mean, think about it, they would have been in utter disbelieve, Im suprised they weren't standing there with their mouths gaping open.

  • This is a textbook example of BALLS TIME

  • BALLS OF STEEL!

  • Fearless bastard.

  • That was truly on of the most badass things I've ever seen.

  • cool, anyone know what "H" company stands for? and if there is more like not only in the airborne but e.g. rangers or infantry please tell me, I know all the name of the companies from A to G and I, if there is any other companies during WW2 please tell me. thanks!
