haha fucking ROYAL MARINES u can tell der from Britain cuz of der uniform n der not french u Britishr just ashame cuz ur best fighting force is worth licking balls n dicks HOO RAH USMC BITCHS 1ST REGIMENT 1ST BATTALION DA FIRST OF DA FIRST
a major leader has gone. iraqis r shitting their pants, we brits and yanks have cleared a major path and now all we have to do is scrape out some outsiders that want to cause trouble. zumbayi i dont know what side ur on but iraqis will go down its just a matter of time now so suck out bitch!
my first reaction to watching this was i thought they were royal marines, i couldnt beleve it so i looked into it further... they r infact part of a british artillery division and that video was a prank set by a british para sergeant 4 a tv programme hosted by domanic jolly about the gulf war. bloody funny tho hahaha. o and 1 more thing IRAQIS R SHITE! they dont know how to aim a rifle! there choices r shite i.e using the ak series that jam up! and u r just STUPID! we fuckin cain ur asses!
zumbayi you need to get ur fatcs straight be 4 talking about them getting their asses kick by the iraqis the video was made by thye british marines and it was meant to be a joke!!!not to be taken serious.
lol its funny I'm in the american army infantry(11bravo) and these guys i assume are rifleman in the british army lol we both suck at doin marine jobs lol hell yeah screw beach landings ! BTW Army SF training is 2 solid years PEACE OUT
The Marines have a higher average IQ than the rest of the population. They are prided on their expertise with rifles, accuracy, and the ability for the basic grunt to be able to take charge if its required (commanders intent).
they are pongo`s ( british army) i`m a royal mairne we let the pongo`s have a go but they cocked it up. and so for the last time it`s not HM royal marine commando`s up the they waists in mud but reg army
AN Army bid to outdo their Navy commando rivals has been shelved - after an experiment went disastrously wrong.
Top brass had hoped to equal the Royal Marines' expertise by developing their own amphibious warfare unit.
But troops used in the mock beach landing were more SOS than SBS - Special Boat Service - when they needed rescuing after sinking to their waists in liquid mud.
It had the Chumbawumba song Tub Thumping dubbed on as a soundtrack with the words, "I get knocked down, then I get up again," blaring out.
Not surprisingly, those who enjoyed watching it the most were Royal Marines commandos.
One marine sergeant said: "I don't think we've got much to worry about, do you? They really should leave this sort of thing to the experts. I don't think we need we say anymore."
Their humiliation was complete when the soldiers - from 40 Regiment, Royal Artillery, based at Topcliffe, North Yorks - collapsed laughing when it went so wrong. They got the giggles as the lifejackets of two men stuck in mud inflated by accident.
In the video, one joking soldier even tries a few crawl strokes to try to get out. The footage was sent across the armed forces by email.
i dont think there is any need to fight over what marine corp is stronger its just a fuckin video with soldiers getin stuck in sand whats the problem and usmc and rm are both good as each other
SergeVladivar, i'm sorry to break it to ya, but nobody can say what the SAS is composed of. nobody knows. there is no roster, there is no record. it is the secrecy of the SAS that makes them so good. remember that.
All of you are wrong... I know because I am a Royal Marine. These are Pongo's (British Army), 40 Regiment Royal Artillery to be precise - The RM's would never screw up as bad as that. See http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/topstories/tm_objectid=13674265%26method=full%26siteid=94762-name_page.html for the article on how the Army was pretending to be Marines and how this debacle occurred.
*And just so you know - SAS selection courses are (usually) mostly built up of Royal Marines. In America its Delta Force recruiting mostly Rangers isnt it? We could sit and argue all day about whose Marines are tougher, but I think its pretty clear in the Special Forces area - seeing as the SAS train American forces. I'm just saying; the regiment that train American Special Forces rely heavily on Royal Marines to fill up selection courses. Get mah drift?
As for the USMC; being British I feel I can't really make a comment because anything I say will be inaccurate to one American or another. From what I do know, the USMC are an equally formidable force on the battlefield.
I don't see how any American can have a go at the Royal Marines or how any Brit can have a go at the USMC. I mean, for the civillians out there; what exactly are you going on here? You won't find anyone tougher than a Royal Marine and just because we don't have sixteen different movies out showing that, doesn't make them lesser than the USMC.
stop being ass holes because they fought for the united states and they lost there lives. u assholes need to take a big look at urselves because if the families of those marine saw what u said they would be very disapointed that people talk like that about marines GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES AND GREAT BRITAIN
CONTINUED i dont want to see another comment saying that the marines suck because i no a lot of marines and i live right next to a marine core base in brooke park, ohio u may have heard of them 24 of them were killed in a period of 1 week. they are the 3rd battalion 25th marines. the 24 were from lima company and they took the most casualties out of any company in the war.
everyone needs to chill out. the united states and great britain r allies. The USMC are very highly trained personel, they r great at wat they do. The British Royal Marines are also great and they get there job done.
First off those are Brit. Royal Marines notice the L85A1's instead of the standard M16 or M4 not U.S Marines. Our boys wouldnt fuck up that bad. Still got respect for the Royal Marines though. Classic FUBAR
I thought that was the army. I have heard that the marines show that as a laugh to new recruits as it was the army trying to do the marines job better.
Jesus Christ every single one of you arguing over who is better are just plain old fucking morons. We are ALLIES FOR GOD'S SAKE. What the fuck is wrong with you people? Who gives a shit who is better or who is not, you shouldn't be arguing, you should be patting eachother on the back. Its because of people like you that there is animosity between friends. I hope you all get the fuck out of your respective countries, so the rest of us can get shit done together.
Fucking Amen... As a Canadian soldier, I have nothing for the highest regards for all of our NATO brothers. Marines fucking rule PERIOD, BOTH SIDE OF THE FUCKING POND.
The Royal Marines are on par, or even surpass in some aspects, the US Marines. Both are generally held to be their respective country's First Response force. Being as such, both are widely considered to be special forces, though this idea is not necessarily held within the civilian sector.
damn brits, you always get yourselfs in that kind of shit, through out history, and then as the years go by, u get yourslef back in the shit, and who do you fucktards turn to? thats right america, get america in the fucked up shit that your can't really get out of, so frankly we own you, PS do something about your fucked up teeth
My brother is us marine and the dedlyist weppin in the world i s a marine with a rifle so you brits can go shuv it up your ass and besides thos arent us marines
The Royal Marines are classed as special forces in America!! So i dont know what you stupid USMC lovers are on about!!! youve just qouted the the deadliest weapon bit from the film 'Full Metal Jacket' which was made ages ago! And the USMC have gone down dramatically since then! The USMC are like the British Army....SHIT!!!
we don't need to go to war, because we don't feel threatened by third world countries, and lets be honest here the only reason the USA joined the second world war was becaue THEY were attacked, pathetic really.
oh dear americans it takes a mixture of BRAINS and BRAWN to be as good as the British, there is no point in being really strong if you dont know the difference between the enemy and your own men!
You are of course aware that despite our interaction with mud, the British would kick the ass of the USA from sheer intelligence compared to the airheaded "friendly fire" americans
These are not Royal Marine Commandos, they are British Army trying to do a Marines job, obviously not very well. Royal Marines would of used a rigid raider. Royal Marines undergo 32 weeks of the longest basic training in the world and argubly the hardest.
When you speak of Marines, you speak of the best. So therefore you implied the United States Marine Corps. However, these are the British Royal Marines.

TROOPS BOGGED DOWN PLAYING AT MARINES
AN Army bid to outdo their Navy commando rivals has been shelved - after an experiment went disastrously wrong.
Top brass had hoped to equal the Royal Marines' expertise by developing their own amphibious warfare unit.
But troops used in the mock beach landing were more SOS than SBS - Special Boat Service - when they needed rescuing after sinking to their waists in liquid mud.
