-
Interesting Videos.
The Cobra is cool.
-
Nice videos! Better than beheadings any day.
-
I liked it when they were the laser designators for laser guided munitions(JDAMS?) of other aircraft in the area.
-
Thanks for those !
-
Thanks for posting that.
I was interested to see how much faster the Hellfires were than the TOW missiles in particular.
[Just as an aside, the "Bible Recitation" from Samuel L. Jackson in the beginning of the Cobra video, sounds biblical but isn't from the bible. I was listening for several seconds before I realized why I couldn't place in it Ezekiel or anywhere else. I'm assuming its from Pulp Fiction. The Ramstein sounded authentic though ;) ]

From Pulp Fiction it was;)

I been sayin' that **** for years. And if you ever heard it, it meant your ass. I never really questioned what it meant. I thought it was just a cold-blooded thing to say to a mother****er before you popped a cap in his ass. But I saw some **** this mornin' made me think twice. Now I'm thinkin': it could mean you're the evil man. And I'm the righteous man. And Mr. 9mm here, he's the shepherd protecting my righteous bellybutton in the valley of darkness. Or it could be you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish. I'd like that. But that **** ain't the truth. The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be a shepherd.
lol

You mean that's not really in a bible verse?
EDIT: this is as close as I got Ezekiel 25:17 "And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them. "

Define "better" in this case
I cannot see the video as google say :
Currently, the playback feature of Google Video isn't available in your country.
We hope to make this feature available more widely in the future, and we really appreciate your patience

No, it seems Wiki figured out that it's not a bible quote quite some time before I noticed it. Apparently Tarantino was doing an homage to another movie:
"This is actually a typically obscure reference to Karate Kiba / Chiba the Bodyguard, a 1976 film starring Sonny Chiba (whom Tarantino has hailed as "the greatest actor to ever work in martial arts films"), which opens with a nearly identical misquote, likewise attributed to Ezekiel 25:17:
The path of the righteous man and defender is beset on all sides by the iniquity of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of lost children. And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious anger, who poison and destroy my brothers; and they shall know that I am Chiba the Bodyguard when I lay my vengeance upon them! (Ezekiel 25:17) " {From Wikipedia}
What clued me in that it wasn't a quote apart from not being able to place it was that the word "tyranny" doesn't occur in the bible and that the context of Ezekiel 25 is the Lord's command to Ezekiel to prophesy in seriatim format the destruction of the nations that have afflicted Israel and rejoiced in her downfall and captivity. So the "shepherd" and "valley" stuff lifted from Psalm 23 and "blessed is he who..." from Psalm 41 is out of place.
Anywho, that's the Tarantino style for you.
