  • 3 people mistaked dislike for dis-i-like LOL

    

  • 0:35 badass

  • i like how that everyone in marine corps commercials are marines

  • "DONT QUIT....YOU QUIT NOW YOU'LL ALWAYS QUIT IN LIFE....GO FOR IT!" BEST QUOTE EVER AND SO TRUE

  • Nobody should be scared bout Bootcamp, if you WANT to earn the title marine. As for I i enter the road from Boy Scout, to Soldier Warrior. SEMPER FIDELIS MARINES!!

  • its seems like everyone is worried more about Bootcamp than the actual fight.

  • the black guy at 56...hardcore!

  • with all the bullshit the corps has to offer, i have to wake each and every morning and turn a marine corps commercial on just to get at least an hours worth of motivation in my life. Semper Fi..

  • Best military commercial 

  • God DAMN i love the ending with the rifles.

  • I can not swim either and I will not stop tring and I will become a Marine

  • If anyone knows how to make a commercial its the Marine Corps... this video sent a shiver down my spine. truly awe inspiring. joining the Delayed Entry Program this month and cant wait to earn that EGA, thank you guys for serving can't wait to join you.

  • looks like a recon marine

  • wow, this dude's a force recon!

  • I'm wanting to join the Royal Marines, but THIS video gives me goosebumps every time I watch and really is a huge motivator for me. Although I'll never get to say this officially:

    Semper Fi.

    Good Luck and God Bless to all those who serve the nations of the free world, and keep it free.

  • I'm a proud Marine Poole. Going to try out for Marine Recon! I'm nervous and worried of not making it but my heart is locked on taking the title! I have scholarships and I have good paying jobs lined up, But I feel that this is my calling. I don't want to grow old and wonder what I could have done, but rather remember what I did! This is my life! ho rah! Semper Fi!

  • i want my hubby!!!!

  • OOARAH

  • The Marine had an epic face at 00:35

  • That would be so good if that m4 actually worked after being submerged in ocean water

  • @gunvor69 it does

  • It doesn't matter there skin color you guys are completely missing the point!!! Take a leap don't lose hope don't quit yeah that's what I'm going to do in life it may be cheesy but at least it's vary inspirational to me and I'm 9!!!!

  • soo cheesy

  • @viper1995 Cheesy? I can sure tell that you never had the balls that it takes to wear "the uniform". I wore it, and I earned the title... During boot camp, you WILL find out what your fears are. You'll also learn that fear is just a feeling. It takes heart. The only way you can't do anything is if you refuse to do it.

  • Ok that guy is fucking jacked!

  • these commercials are misleading sometimes, not everyone will get to jump off an airplane, or ride an inflatable assault boat like these guys do, this commercial looks like they are recruiting for MARSOC, I have a few friends that are SARC for people out there that knows what it means...and they are the guys that get to do this kind of stuff

  • racist commercial

  • @1987ETB how??? if your going to include race its a black guy overcoming a challenge wheres the racism in that

  • CUTE

  • The Few. The Proud. The Marines. Damn Straight.

  • USMC Poolee !! I leave 2010 08 23!! I want to switch to July though

  • @knotsean good luck and be safe!

  • Lol I know the feeling I leave around september or october but i want to leave next month!! But I know my recruiter knows when ill be ready and when I am im going to fucking smash every CFT and hopefully get into A class on everything... well thats going to be my mission when I enter!! Good Luck and see you in the feild!

  • @Beastman43 Nice man im 14 and i can't wait till i join im going to a special program so i have a bigger chance to get in Marines

  • nice one!

  • OORAH!

  • was anyone ever told"dont quit" or was it more like "jump or I will make you jump"

  • This is nice....

  • VERY CUTE !

  • This commercial is bad ass, how he comes out of the water like that is cool.

  • yes

    !

  • USMC poolee! Boot camp 08-13-10. i'm a little freaked out.

  • My friend joined the Corps, I think hes leaving the same time, congrats.

  • @ekiss2010 my friend just joined the Marines in November he ships out the same month as you.

  • one of the most motivating and inspiring recruiting commercials I have ever seen, I might join the Navy or Marines next year since its my 17th birthday.

  • FEAR keeps u alive in war

  • fear is what kills u when it isnt ur time yet

  • marine commercials are only cool to those who arent in the marines or pogs, i cant wait for the commercial to come out that shows us police calling or getting thrashed over nothing or better yet sitting around in my room waiting to get off work. or cleaning my room till one or two in the morning once a week.

  • give it time. We all paid our dues. I love our commercials as they capture our ethos. We are not promising money or college. Not promising a skill for your next civilian job. We promise that you will achieve more than most else mentally and physically. You are right daily life in the Corps is not as sexy as the commercials but we DO do that stuff and are world renown for our history and our ability to defeat any other fighting force in the world.

  • Are you stupid man police guys have nothing compared to the US MARINES are better

  • The jump is not about swimming or heights. It is about courgae it takes to that first step to commit to a life changing experience. You will never be the same after Boot camp. From then on there are no more problems, only challenges. This change will be permanent. Once a Marine, always a Marine. That is why there are no Ex Marines but Former Marines. (EX Marines are only those dishonorably discharged) SEMPER FI

  • Ooorah All the way (im a furure marine Pre enlisted)

  • dishonorable discharged or not you were still a marine and as you said once a marine always a marine

    SEMPER FI!

  • @martinspecialeffects You got that right, my brother...  Semper Fi...

  • @martinspecialeffects I know it'll never happen, but I wish you could talk to my uncle. He was in the Marine Corps and he says some really deep and motivating things. I have a feeling you two would get along great. Thanks for your service if you were or are currently in the Marine Corps, and if not, thanks for the motivating words.

  • The confidence course mustve taught him how to swim

  • Very incredible commercial, this is my one of my moto of becoming a Marine

  • love the ad but to everyone else who commented on this video u oviously dont fuckin understand the commercial he was scared to try swimming but by overcoming his fear he was able to become a marine

  • WTF is he doing their in the middle of the ocean?

  • He jumped out of a Helicopter, he might be in the special forces(Force Recon) or just doing a routine drill.

  • maybe we should put your sorry ass out in the middle of the ocean and see how well you handle it.

  • Why do you all keep saying he's afraid of hights? he cant swim. There is a diffrence.

  • go marines!...and navy seals!!!

  • and army

  • MARPAT uhrah!

  • i just hope i can get over my fear of heights b4 i join in 2011

  • man the fuck up

    marines dont want people who have fears of heights or water

    or stupid shit like that

  • just because i am afraid of heights dosnt mean i wont jump off plan, asshole, everyone has some sort of fear

  • not really

    maybe ones that prolly wont happen in the marines

    i have one

    burned alive

    but sorry i did make that sound kinda mean

    good luck man

  • all you need to remember is this- courage is not the absense of fear, but its the will to overcome it. remember all those who have gone before you. pray for their intercession and thats all you need to make it through. they did it, you can do!

    Semper Fi-Always Faithful- even if you are scared, you have a brotherhood that will go through it with you, no questions asked, i promise.

  • excuse me, but are you a marine? i dont know one marine who is fearless. if you do, let me know, i get right at him. fear is apart of the human being. its not these marines are fearless, for even jesus was filled with fear, its that marines are those whose choose to master their fear and never yield to anything, evn themselves. i suggest thinking before you speak. whats more brave? having no fear, or having the guts to overcome fear?

  • he cant swim and if you cant they will teach you to.

  • Dude don't worry. I'm being shipped off 12/1 and I'm afraid of heights too. My recruiter likes to fuck with me about it, but the reality is I'm not going to let my fears hold me back.

  • Fear is only a sensation that grips the heart.

  • That's what Boot's for baby!

    The more you think about fear, the less you think about the mission. if your only problem is height, they'll knock that right out of you.

    Good luck, and enjoy the DEP while you can.

    There's nothing like nice American weather!

  • WHOO Marines rule!

  • OORAH! Awesome. It's a good way to point out that the Marines will help you overcome your fears, and strive to be the best.

  • DATS RIGHT!!!!

  • Are these Marines 0321s?

  • awesome!:D

  • I dont swim well either, so hopefully they will teach me how

  • Youe need to learn!!!!!!! theyre MARINES

  • wow how racist, just cuz he's black they make him not be able to swim, this stereotype is just not true like asians being bad drivers

  • I have known blacks who could swim, but never met any asians who could drive...

  • Commandant, you should just run along and go play some more xbox you little boy. The adults don't want to hear your race baiting.

    I'll listen to you once you become a man, or at least someone who has fought for something greater than himself.

  • wut the fuck r u talking bout

  • this was well thought out and well done

  • Comment removed

  • sick commercial, sick usic.

  • None of your business.

  • yeah i know

  • The Few. The Proud. The Marines.

  • Bwaaaahahahaha! I can't believe they finally made a realistic commercial. From lava monsters to climbing up a mountain and silent drill all over the place finally about something every recruit goes through in Boot Camp. Watching all the black kids squirm by the pool.

  • The Marines have the best commercials.

  • @johannesusa and the best warriors

  • for the brothers and sisters that made the ultimate sacrafice for this country and for our freedom!

  • I want to hear the full song...

  • wow this is a really good commercial

  • the few

    the proud

    the marines

    marines ftw !

  • This commercial is the best Marine commercial that I have ever seen.

  • My favorite Marine commercial.

  • love this! oorahh!

    god bless marines!

  • Oh man a black guy at the pool. Just like at swim qual always the black guys, not being racist but it is funny. Even the black Marines laugh.

  • Omg. this video made my jaw dropped.  The Few. The Proud. The Marines.

  • This is the best MARINES commercial ever

  • im sorry but the U.S Marine Corps commercial is the best so far

  • this commercial is really motivating heh

  • kelly marines are part of the navy so you will prob be in a boat if the war is on the coast not in a desert

  • hey does anyone know the job that that marine is in when they are in the boat

    because thats the job that i want

  • i think it's underwater explosive ordinance disposal, or an amphibious assault squad

  • it's less of a job, more of a mode of transportation for all marines. but if anyone, force recon marines would be in a boat the most

  • they are recon marines. the marines special forces

  • semper gumby devil necks!

  • And people think the Seals fre the only ones who can attack by sea stealthfully and effectively... I think that this commercial finaly shows that.

    (F.Y.I.) I have a huge amount of respect for our Seals. It just irritates me that people dont believe that the Marines are just as capable as the Seals.

    (F.Y.I. x2) No that was not a slap to the Seals, that was just a little praise to the Marines. Seals are badass MoFo's!! Some of the toughest in the world. But so are our Marines.

  • 1,2,3,4 I love the Marine Corps

  • I'm white and I couldn't swim before I joined the Marines. I hated being in the water. Now I don't mind swimming

  • Do I see you joining the Marines? So I see you going out there with the guts to do what they do? Do you have a right to talk about the Marines that way? No. You can say all you want, doesn't mean you know crap. Make it sound smart. You can say they are nice "catch phrases" but you will never know what it truly means to be an Marine.

  • No, you didn't see me join the marines because I didn't post it on youtube.

    Good assumption though, even though I'm on my sixth year of service! And I know it AIN'T ALL GREEN!

    Thanks bud!

  • Hahahahahahaaaaaa...

    Just saw this commercial on BET during rapcity. Interesting placement.

    The Marines DO see white and black and just because the IDEALS don't aknowledge race, people still do. We've been trained to do it. All that "we only see green, etc." are just nice catch phrases to dismiss the TRUTH that people still hold racial boundaries.

    A fundamental problem in our country.

    But this vid is just hilarious!

  • I really don't think it matters after a grenade goes off and your leg is hanging on by a piece of skin who helps you.

  • Yeah, but that's just an extreme situation. How convenient.

    Didn't know that's what being in the Marines was all about!

  • and i saw it on Adult Swim, arguably the most "white boy" time slot on the planet earth

    when youre in a fighting hole, color and creed dont mean a damn thing

  • But when you are in the Marines, you aren't always in a "fighting hole", majority of the time you are just being you throughout your daily Marine training/activity.

    I think there are exceptions, but PEOPLE, not the marines, have racist tendencies. These tendencies are usually carried out in subtle ways, so just saying "oh the marines don't have racial problems" is damaging. There are racial issues STILL in the marines, why? because PEOPLE still have race issues, that's all man.

    I luv marines

  • lol im inclined to agree

    probably why they turn race into one giant joke amongst each other instead of something to be swept under the rug and be dishonest about it, im not saying they dont NOTICE, just that when it counts it becomes a nonpoint

    the book Generation Kill is exactly what i mean lol

  • "One giant joke" IS sweeping it under the rug in a sense. Especially if that's the only way these issues are being addressed. The fact that there IS joking going on and not systemic observation of these issues identifies a TRUTH that we still feel these racial tendencies amongst one another, despite the fact we all want to get along.

  • i'd rather have them with smiles on their faces joking about what most people tip-toe around and knowing "yeah, theres different race but it doesnt mean anything"

    then sitting around worried to say anything cause someone will flip out over some race issue so in the end has to constantly vigilantly feel they have to censor themselves cause the other guy might be too touchy which eventually just makes the issue of seeing race and acting DIFFERENTLY that much more acute, like in civilian life

  • That is what you would rather.

    Meanwhile, I'm still over here without my experiences validated.

    There are MANY others like me.

  • what experiences would those be, because what i meant is i'd rather people not give a damn about race instead of being beaten into forced reverence towards it

    the latter only leads to seeing nothing BUT someones race

  • I'm sure it wouldn't be ideal for you to have to acknowledge or be reverent to other races outside of your comfort zone.

    I mean, America was built on convenience and comfort, why stop now?

  • Also, there is no such thing as black or white in the Marine Corps. Only green, red, and blue. And green is the more prominent. Now, Semper Fi my "former" brother.

  • Premium, if you knew anything about the Corps, you'd know Once a Marine; Always a Marine. You aren't a "former" Devil Dog. There is no such thing as a "former" anything in context to the Marine Corps. You are a Marine until you die.

  • SAS TBH

  • Im a former devildog 2002-2006 and I know for a fact BLACK folks cant swim... IM black BTW.. when swim qual came every yr guess who the majority of folks was sitting on the bench cuz they had to take remedial.... BLACK folks.. I was the only black dud in my plat who could of swim besides this other dude.. 2 out of maybe 15 or 16... If your not a marine you wouldnt understand

  • Very moto. Who cares if it is a black guy. It shows the diversity we have throughout the Marine Corps. I couldn't think of anything else I would want to do if I weren't in the Corps.

  • idk what i would do either.

    im going to enlist

  • Wow. That's a powerful statement.

    So you're telling me that you can't imagine anything else, other than the thing YOU ARE DOING!?!??!

    Such imagination, such THOUGHT!

  • am i the only one who found this funny?

  • i found this hilarious. i can't believe they had the audacity to put a stereotype about black people not swimming in a recruitment ad.

  • mikey071980,

    That is an extremely racist comment you placed here. Who gave YOU the right to stop people from telling their live stories? This is a true story told by a black man, and at NO point was it even said that it represents all black people.

  • I am not a Marine, but I know a lot of Marines.

    From what I learn from them, is that Marines are not black nor white. They are GREEN.

  • abs1775,

    Well said mate.

  • Really? Do you honestly think this was there intent? Yes, let's go an make a PROMOTIONAL video just to make fun of black people? If that was the intent then it would have hurt recruitment and therefore never been made. The marine's made this to recruit people not insult them. Besides that, you just made a very racist comment. So who is racist here? You or the video?

  • sick as in it was really cool

  • The Marines are great. I loved it.

  • amazing

  • sick

  • Why was this removed last time? Cool vid but I am wonder why it was taken down for a while.

  • sorry, typo there. "I wonder why"

  • AWESOME!!USA USA!!!
