A weird story: When war broke out in 1914, Roosevelt volunteered to fight even though he was a former president and was 56 at the time. Sitting President Woodrow Wilson actually butted in and personally denied Roosevelt's re-enlistment. To be fair though, Wilson had a habit of butting in. When Roosevelt died, the sitting Vice President was quoted to have said "Death had to come for him in his sleep; If he had been awake, there would have been a fight."

@TheDeadThatLive Год назад

Roosevelt didn't just try to sign up as a soldier. he had personally sent letters out and recruited an entire division of troops that he wanted added to the US army and sent to France immediately. It's lucky Wilson didn't go along with it... a bunch of undisciplined cowboys worked fine against spain, but they'd have gotten ruined on the Western Front.

"Kiss my cousin's ass." Don't forget Teddy's cousin was Franklin D. Roosevelt, president during WWII. Teddy Bear: Teddy Roosevelt was bear hunting (see edit below...it wasn't Louisiana as I said earlier). Some people he was hunting with trapped a bear, giving Roosevelt "an easy shot" so he could go home with a kill. He refused it & told them to let the bear go. That is how the term "teddy bear" came into being. EDIT: TIL the story about Roosevelt's bear hunt story did not take place in Louisiana. It actually took place in Smedes, MS.-

Fun fact: Churchill's speech wasn't made over the radio, it was made in person and transcribed to the papers for the next day. After the war, Churchill only produced an audio recording in 1949. *Edit. Fun fact no. 2: Theodore wasn't named after a teddy bear in any way shape or form. They were named after him, as people commonly called him Teddy. Which he hated. So Winston calling him Teddy Bear is also playing on the fact that Teddy *hates* being called that. The toy was so called for the bear he refused to kill on a hunting trip when his party tied a cornered one to a tree for him to shoot.

With the "You should be ashamed of your military honor" line: Winston was given his first position in the navy because of his family titles, not by earning it. Teddy's dad was slated to be drafted into the Civil War but bought his way out of it (you could pay for someone else to take your place in the draft) to take care of the sick baby Teddy. His dad regretted it till the day he died, so when Teddy heard that the spanish American war was about to happen he quit his navy job to go join the rough riders. When WW1 started Teddy (already an ex-president) was told that he wasn't allowed to go to war, so he forced all three of his sons to go. The "I'd put you in a pram so you van throw your toys out" line: Teddy wasn't 100% mentally stable and could throw some raging tantrums. As a teenager when his dad died, Teddy shot the neighbors dog because it barked at him, that same week he nearly beat his horse to death... Teddy learned to use physical exercise to keep his mind disciplined and to keep his body busy so his mind wouldn't slip into those dark places.

@@jacksonperez5615 Because Jefferson was well...a hypocrite. He spoke out about slavery and yes banned the sale of NEW slaves in Virginia but not only still kept his own slaves, but had six children with one of his slaves (Sally Hemmings) and never freed her. In fact all six of their children were slaves. Two ran away, and Jefferson freed the others in his will. Jefferson's legitimate daughter, Martha Randolph, gave the now elderly Sally an 'informal freedom' meaning she was still technically a slave, she was just allowed to retire and live out the last 9 years of her life with two of her sons. So while he did some good, in the end he refused to lead by example. And as Fredrick Douglass said in the rap, "You let freedom ring but never picked up the phone."

@DyslecticAttack 3 года назад

This is easily one of, if not my favorite battles of ERB. Both parties are amazingly strong in character and bars. Though I do think that most American reactors tend to give the win to Teddy after the bullet, and sadly that isn't a wining line for me. A lot of people look over the second part of "If a bullet to the chest won't stop you, my words will.", at least to me a lot of people seem to not realize the character that builds for both sides. Teddy shrugs off the bullet, it's damn impressive, but Churchill also directly says that he has more confidence in his words than an actual bullet (while directly putting it in the context of said historic event). Personally (as neither American nor British) I see it as a draw. Both are extremely close, both have great flows, absolute bombs of lines and they show the full charisma that made them the leaders they're known for. Combine that with how the rap battle specifically ends with both declaring they would never admit defeat and it's also the perfect ending to it for me. Also, love the reaction and the commentary with your explanations of how your think about the references and just the lines overall.

@ryans3795 Год назад

Whenever I hear the name Teddy Roosevelt I automatically picture Robin Williams as Roosevelt now. I watched that movie too much as a kid xD

@NashaWriter85 3 года назад

I was not expecting anyone on YT who breaks down these ERB bars to bring up Upton Sinclair....dude, its awesome watching someone who is as 'nerdy' as I am. Keep it. Please find more of the more historical battles ERB has done and break em down for us. You rock.

I cannot recommend Julius Ceasar Vs Shake Zulu enough. It gets stuck in my head sometimes, and has some rough and racey bars.

I really hope you do all the ERB's and react to them. I keep being amazed at your history knowledge and in depth reaction wisom :D - Even tho ive seen all their videos and multiple different reactions of em, truly no one, goes as in depth and have as much history knowledge as you ! - Keep up the amazing work :D

@optimusprowse6448 3 года назад

Dude, your breakdown Game is so f'n strong, it never ceases to amaze me!!! And all that knowledge you always put into when you explain the stuff is absolutely 🤯. Never stop, your ERB breakdown's are some of the best out there (although I watched all ERB's, I still watch your Breakdown-Videos). Mad respect from Germany Philipp

@Gyledresch 3 года назад

Dude, watching you come up with the Gallipoli information, just ripping that knowledge out of your memory, was super satisfying. Good shit sir.

@michaeldecock3952 3 года назад

I'd highly recommend reacting to some of Dan Bull's videos, it mostly gaming related but he's great with lyricism. I'd suggest his civilization rap, or far cry primal. His dishonored raps and his fallout 4 rap also have great alliteration.

@IGuessVince 3 года назад

At the end or Roosevelt’s line when he says “and kiss my cousins ass” is a reference to his literal cousin FDR and how he’s the one that helped them in the war literally so they owe his cousin it was a double lol

@marianacardoso2655 3 года назад

@Rockalanche 3 года назад

I just subscribed to your channel today because I fell in love with falling in reverse and seeing reactions to their music. I really can't get enough of your reactions. You are so eloquent and kind. The level of detail you put into your analyses is phenomenal. I am so glad that there is someone else who is passionate about history as much as I am. Thank you Knox. Definitely listening to your music later.

Actually, the Teddy bear was named after Roosevelt and as for the bulldog reference, bulldogs were once called “Churchill dogs”

@mortenalbertsen7443 3 года назад

Really love this series! Intelligent lyrics are what makes these rap battles epic! I am pretty sure this isn't your favourite type of music, but there is a swedish power metal band called "Sabaton" that covers war history in their songs. As a history crack you should definitely give it a shot!

If there was ever an ERB that needed a rematch it would be this one. Roosevelt and Churchill both had some hard bars and the historical references were fantastic in this one. One of my favorites. The only ERB I think I could call as a draw.

@vegardfjellheim3252 3 года назад

Yoo Knox, good breakdown! But one thing everyone seems to miss, one of Winston's hardest lines imo! «tomorrow i'll be sober and you'll still be roasted» is a play off of a conversation WC had with a lady who complained he was drinking too much, to which he replied along the lines of «well tomorrow i'll be sober, and you'll still be ugly» dude was a savage 😂

@skraz0r 3 года назад

If you ever want an ERB reaction video to take 40+ minutes because there's so much to analyze, try Alexander the Great vs. Ivan the Terrible. Loads of history, some killer bars and doubles/triples. Just overall one of the best ERB videos ever, imo.

@thamojster 3 года назад

I only recently started watching your videos, and im now subscribed because of all the reactions to erb ive seen, and music in general you combine the musical breakdown side which ive seen a lot of people do well, with a general historical knowledge ive only seen in non musical reactors who are specialized in actual history reactions, having these two combined(youre the only music reactor ive seen that got the isthmus line as well as the pinz nez) is awesome, please react to more of the erbs.
