Love the Predator reference. Nothing more iconic than Schwarzenegger and Weathers clasping hands and showing those massive 13 inch pythons

Fun fact: My dad's callsign is Carlos, named after Carlos Hathcock. The reason he got this callsign is because when he was training with the gun on the F-18 Hornet, he was using the wrong targeting system and ended up spraying everywhere except the target they were supposed to hit. he thought he had nailed the target, and when he landed everyone was mocking him as military men do, and they came up with the callsign "Carlos", after the famous sniper. Everyone now thinks it's because he's Mexican, but in reality he's named after Carlos Hathcock. He now is retired, but flies with Draken International as a civilian fighter pilot, as one of the best fighter pilots (with guns too XD).

It's insane to think that even just a single split seconds moment longer of hesitation, this story would be "How the Cobra killed The White Feather"

Gotta say that watching this is hella inspiring, can't wait to see you guys improve more over the coming years!

The White Feather versus The Cobra....This is a special day! Thank you Yarnhub, for giving us this re-enactment of one of the most incredible sniper duels in history.

Carlos Hathcock, the legend!

Proud to be able to say I've been watching since the shoe maker that beat a German tank ace. You guys have come a long way since then. Keep on going strong 💪 Love you guys ❤️

Hathcock always called his targets, "Hamburgers". He was and still is a legend in the USMC. Literally the founding father of the USMC Scout/Sniper School. Thank-you Yarnhub for a superb presented story of heroism.

He was also suffering at the time from the early symptoms of the neurologic disorder that would eventually kill him. Multiple Sclerosis. And a real legend in the Marine Corps, You are getting really good with the animation. He long with Major Land and would get the TO&E for the permanent Sniper School that the Marines have and we all know about.

A true marine badass, as a kid i had a white feather and yet didn't know about the full real story, my old man just gave it to me along with a toy rifle and told me i was a legend

daym i really love this sniper vs Sniper story, the tense of the battle really felt eventhough it's just a narrative

I remember when it was simple 2d animation, now this channel has single handedly changed animation on RU-vid for ever, the best quality animation there is, with amazing stories that make you feel like you are in the middle of the story. Thank you for blessing us with your amazing creation.

Carlos Hathcock used to set up his White Feather Industries booth at gun shows in the '90s. I engaged in a couple of conversations with the man. IIRC he was wheelchair-bound, and in his mid-50s he seemed old to me (I was 19-20 at the time). Wish I had taken the time to better appreciate our brief talks, he passed not too long after.

Great video from the Yarnhub team as always, and I am hoping for more ground vehicle battles in the future. Can't wait!

Man, that's totally a tribute to Predator!

The Vietnam vets were a whole different breed. My generation was fortunate to be trained by them. We admired and respected them. Tough people. Reminds me of our current Gulf War II warfighters. Love the predator reference at the beginning. Keep up the great work. You guys have come a long way. Always look forward to each release.

I started watching when the "When the Valiant 21 Sikhs Battled 10,000 Men" video had just came out, been watching as much as I can from you guys ever since. I've not only learnt alot more but the videos are actually enjoyable, and the amount the animation quality has changed is just insane, you guys keep it all up.

It’s baffling to see how far y’all have come. I’m truly baffled, keep it up lads!

Carlos wasn't just a skilled marksman. The guy had insane "field IQ." He could see things us mere mortals couldn't.

Unbelievably quality! I'm not rich but you have my financial support for these wonderfully educational and interesting videos!

Not only Carlos Hathcock was a greatest snipper of that era but his IQ level was also beyond an average persons imagination 🤯

Amazing to see how far this channel has come. Keep up the great work!

The story of John Burkes death is one of immense courage as well. Man held off a NVA assault with grenades and his M16. While defending the wounded albeit wounded himself.

Very nice. For a touch more accuracy in your depiction of Gunny's Unertl lose the recoil spring. He took it off because it rattled. Also the feather is way too long. The one he wore in the bush was much shorter and smaller. Otherwise, nicely done and thanks for mentioning Burke.

Woah! Amazing job guys! As a south vietnamese, this story is one of my favorites!

10:19 That's not actually true. The deadliest sniper of the Vietnam War with most confirmed kills was an Army sniper, SSG Adelbert Waldron, with the record of 109 kills in 8 months. He specialized in shooting from patrol boats, sometime while moving. Sadly, not as much is known about him compared to the famous Marine Corps snipers.

Man I have been watching since 2018 and you're animations came a long way since then great work yarnhub

I love the predator reference! Over all great video!

The animation quality is insane. Been Watching for a few years and im so happy to see the improvements! I still love the older videos but the new ones feel like battlefield cutscenes. Love your work!

Well damned... You managed to make a tense sniper chase more tense than any Hollywood movie. And I would not have believed the story, if it did not come from you lads.

The white feather took out the cruel Woman Apache too.😊😊

One of the best memories of my time in the Suck was at the Scout/Sniper Instructors School in Quantico, Va. The class, I was part of, was about half made up of Marines. The other half were from Delta, Seals, Green Beanies and Rangers. We started with about 75 students. About 25 of us graduated. After each training section, the cadre pulled the class together and asked us for critiques about that session. At the Stalking section, during which you donned the Gillie suit you had made, slow-crawled about 1000 meters along a power line cut, set up your firing position and took your shot at your "targets" (them being several instructors who sat in the bed of a 6-by with tripod mounted spotting scopes and binos looking for you and radioing in “walkers” to lead them to your suspected position. If they find you, it's a Fail. You get one more chance. Fail again and you are sent home). Afterwards, at the critique, I said that this part of the training was insufficient. We were under a time limit (I can't recall if it was 2, 3 or 4 hours) to maneuver to a position within 250 meters of them, fire your first round, wait till a walker came within 10 feet of you, then fire once more). The time limit forced us to move with more speed then you would under combat conditions and to “cut corners”. I understood that the course only had so much time to teach us a shit load of knowledge, but stalking was too important to be rushed, I said. They should add another week to the course to give stalking the time it deserves. To back-up my opinion, I told the story of Master Sgt. Carlos Hathcock III's famous mission to kill a NVA General deep in North Vietnam. After a helo insertion, he took more than a day and a night slow-crawling though more than half a mile (800 meters) of a flat plain with no trees or bushes, just knee-high grass. Got to within 300 meters of the general's hootch and waited for the general to appear. He killed the SOB. Then, slow crawled back across that open plain while the company of NVA regulars assigned to guard the general furiously scoured the ground looking for him. That's the kind of training exercise we needed at the best sniper school in the world. I didn't know it then, but “Gunny” Hathcock had been a regular visitor to the school (which he and Major Land had fought long and hard to create) and was there back behind the truck with the rest of the cadre listening. The next day, we rotated out to the range for practice and Qual with our rifles. He came out to the range and did what ,an instructor later told me, was his routine. He picked one student and spotted for that shooter during the two days of range practice before qualifying began. Another of the cadre told me afterwards that I "was the first god-damned ‘yankee’ that The Man had ever picked to spot for.” For a glorious 3 hours in the morning, 3 hours in the afternoon and 3 more hours the next morning, I was tutored, in a slow Arkansas drawl, by the Finest Marine to get a solid cheek weld on a stock and proper eye relief to a scope. It will be one of the memories I’ll recall as I take my last breath on this earth. Semper Fidelis, White Feather.

This has genuinely gotta be one of my favourite episodes I've seen on this channel, everything from the lighting to the pacing were just perfect! You've outdone yourselves with this one ❤

After the Arnold homage, I immediately bought a polo. The video quality, and the history your channel provides is worth every contribution.

Hathcock and mawhiney we're both outstanding Marine snipers but you never here about the U.S. Army sniper Adelbert Waldron, he actually had more confirmed kills than hathcock did(look it up if you don't believe me) loo into his 1 mile (Roughly) shot from a boat on a VC. But regardless they all made us proud Americans.

When he picked up the m2 Browning i cracked up😂

that pred 1 reference was amazing haven’t seen a history channel do that before cool

"Sniping your enemy is like hunting any other animal. Fire at the wrong moment and your chance will be forever lost." - Viktor Reznov Felt very true in this story.

Bro carried the m2 machine like a boss

Never heard of White Feather. They must be really covert.😊

Basically when Carlos Hathcock was mentioning this part he spoke how when his scope saw the glint and he shot in the direction, the bullet went through both end of the Cobras scope, through the eye and obliterated the left side of the snipers head. causing literal crainal evacuation (brain matter and skull matter due to the force and vacuum of the shot). Hathcock said that he was faster on the trigger as if the Cobra would've taken the shot at that moment, Carlos would've been dead. He also didn't hold any grudge toward the cobra, he had respect for his fellow enemy. There was another time where Carolos used a 50 cal machine gun and placed a powered scope on the top to use as a 50 cal sniper rifle to shoot at a Vietcong riding a bike that was carrying AK47 weaponry from a long distance.

I've heard this story many times ,but NEVER to this detail, AMAZING job ,yall did it perfectly

This is probably the best yarnhub video i have ever watched and i have been watching since the ned kellys last stand video. keep up the good work!

That’s why the marine corps goes based off of Carlos hathcock sniper skills He was definitely a man a myth and a legend That all armed forces goes based off him now from the army navy marines and Air Force and coast guard Snipers like Carlos hathcock are a rare breed of snipers in the military Even some sniper games are based on & off around Carlos hathcock sniper missions Like sniper ghost warrior Or sniper elite post WW2 Shalom dove 🕊️ of peace ☮️

LMAO the Predator reference

So many references here and well appreciated. Predator and Road Block (we don't acknowledge the Rock portrayal). Awesome work as always!

Man, this channel is so awesome and dopamine-inducing, I'm surprised it isn't internationally regulated.

Thank you very much for your history lessons, may there be many more to come!!!

It's like watching a good movie, graphics on this is awesome 👌👌

These always make my day. Well done y’all!

Ive heard of this story years ago! thanks for bringing it to life!! you guys rock!

The amount of mind games required to predict enemy movement is simply incredible. Imagine an air soft game mode where 2 snipers duel for the first shot. 4-D chess anyone?

Thrilling, exhilarating and heart stopping 🔥🔥🔥🔥😮😮😮😮❤❤ video even better then 2hrs action 🎥 great work guys and a salute to "Yarnhub" team 🌟🌟🌟🌟.

Been watching for A little over a year and the animation blows me away. These are brilliant and I can’t believe I found this channel

I've watched several videos that cover the same topic but I am proud to say that no other has covered this topic so well! Been a faithful supporter of this channel for the past several years and have been witness to seeing its wonderful videos and marvelling at the quality of the animation increasing year after year! P.S - Yarnhub's video on Simo Häyhä (AKA The White Death) is also amazing! Wish they would make a reboot of that one too Kudos to all your hard work and keep it up!

Not gonna lie, the 3D animation looks very amazing

this channel so good, thanks for the editor and the animation, i really enjoy it

A little “homage” to Predator there in the beginning? I love it!

It's un believable how much your animation has improved

As always, top notch, it’s getting so much better than 5 years ago. (Edit I did start when it was 2d when the Tesla vid was fairly new)

This is epic! The work you guys put into these is amazing! I love your videos, been watching since "The Ghost Camaro".

War is not a Game. War is Terrifying, as this episode shows.

The Predator reference is very fitting for this. There is a Predator universe novel in which a team of them show up to hunt on Earth in a national park. Unfortunately for them, a park ranger finds out. Who is a former sniper. The story then becomes an inversion of the original Predator movie, with the Yautja desperately trying to survive against an unseen killer and escape back to their ship. The story ends with the last one being killed right when he reaches it.

Always wanted to see a Vietnam war video, thank you so much.

I love the predator reference. I still prefer you guys use the narrators casual voice when quoting individuals. I think it sounds better.

Love the predator reference

Thank you for these amazing animation stories Yarnhub. Keep up the amazing work!

Petition to give the narrator and animators a raise

Honestly one of your best videos yet! Fantastic work as always, Yarnhub! (Edit, that predator reference was hilarious, with the cut off "GET TO THE CHOP-" *dies*)

Damn, the animation is so crisp and beautiful. Excellent work folks! Any way you can make any footage related to Aztec Eagles, air squad 101 and / or 201?

Maybe the craziest sniper v sniper duel during the Vietnam war. This is a great one

Its one thing to take out a bad guy, but another to do it through the bad guys scope. what a shot! Incredible marksman the white feather.

Loads of Predator references😂

Has to be the best video you’ve ever made, been watching every Friday and seeing your animation improve each time :)

Gunny Hathcock is a legend and the man who made the Scout Sniper Program. He is by far the best sniper in history as he did things that nobody else has

I was hoping you could do an episode on “Swede” Vejtesa a legendary American pilot in the Pacific theater of WW2. He had a 20 minute dogfight in an SBD dauntless dive bomber against three zeros and survived! Then later in the war made history by downing seven enemy planes in one day in a fighter. I think it’s a great story would make a great video, thanks for all your content, its great!

i have watched your content for 2 years my father love your content keep up with the good work!

Beautiful, can’t wait to see what is next (of course i would have my hopes of some legendary stories but maybe someday i shall see them too.) have a good one yarnhub

somehow you never fail at impressing me in every video.

damn bruv, I started watching you when you released the Red Baron, and I'm quite amazed at the improvement.

Bro the animation quality on this vid is absolutely insane 🔥

Great biography about White Feather called ‘Marine Sniper’. It’s worth a read

Finally, I've been waiting for this video about him

I love this channel, I’ve followed it from 2d to this, much love ❤

another excellent video by yarnhub, good work guys! love to see the progress made from the old 2d animations :)

From a U.S.Marine veteran, son of a U.S.Marine veteran ... WELL DONE & THANK YOU !!!

After seeing that Predator reference all i could here during the jungle fight was the Predator theme. Thanks Yarnhub.

Another classic yarnhub W

0:59 Man woke up and ignored the recoil

The white feather vs The cobra US Marine officer Carlos Hathhock ( White feather) Legend ❤ and John Burke Elimination of terror base wow Amazing animation 👌 by Yarn Hub team 👏 The voice 🎤 narration 👌 semma super 😍

big ups to making a shirt I can actually wear outside

Love the yarnold merch :>

sniper against sniper... An eye for an eye... At these times, you can only count on two things, LUCK, and GOD's help against your enemy...

I can't believe how good these videos have become. The graphics are amazing

i notice that you have improve the voice acting quality, great job!

I loved your video about Carlos Hatchcock and how he discharged the North Vietnamese soldier you are incredible greetings from Mexico

The fact that this was all animated, modeled and voice acted is just insane to me, You guys are legends keep it up!

Carlos Hathcock was a beast!

Ah yes, the legendary Vietnam sniper himself, the man who in Mythbusters tried to replicate his famous sniper shot and "proved" that it was not physically possible despite the evidence and report that was written about the sniper engagement.
