Imagine hiking alone with this guy.
He scares the shit out of me.
I mean, I love him, that he's out that this but he scares the shit out of me.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzTvTqClmKg
Serious question, is there something wrong with him?
>>31460978
Pat's favorite hobby growing up was bird watching
>>31460978
He seems like a normal person to me. Why is this not in /out/?
>alone
>with pat Mac
Wait wat
He keeps the intensity that got him where he is. He makes even bird watching nuts.
>>31461038
Search his name in google.
He is my idol
>>31460978
You seem like a fag who gets nervous around anyone. Maybe if you left moms house and interacted with people, your low energy self wouldn't feel so insecure.
>tl;dr version: kys
>Hello, this is Pat Macnamara
>Today we are going to go bird watching, BURN IT DOWN!
>>31460978
I get a slight Trevor Philips vibe from him. I would take a class with him for sure though.
>>31460978
he looks Polish to me
"Lotta Osprey...flyin' up and down the river. I've eaten six of them."
Dude's just out there hiking around, eating birds. I don't see a problem here.
>>31461498
You misunderstand. He's not eating birds.
>>31460978
Based on only seeing this video, I'd rather hang out with this guy than any normie gun youtuber. He seems fucking rad and chill and super into the beautiful nature around him.
>>31461498
I think he was talking about the trout. I dunno.
>>31460978
He's a total operator. Kinda strange at a glance but he seems like a total bro. Could probably learn a lot of useful things from him.
>>31461683
Dude spent 15 years in DELTA, and cut his teeth doing double agent ops in Berlin in East Germany.
Legit.
>>31461498
He says he set traps and that he was doing better than the osprey [at catching fish because] he's eaten six of them [fish].
>>31460978
Reminds me of my grandpa's Vietnam vet friend...
Motherfucker was the nicest guy you'd ever meet at his house or at the bar for a drink, but when we went camping with him he became an entirely different person. Sort of like that dude but x7 when he was out in the wilderness. Could literally smell and spot every little critter around him withing a mile radius and take em out with his .22 short rifle almost effortlessly. He was very jumpy too.
>>31461768
Nah he said overt spying. Overt spying isn't so much HUMINT, it's on the ground surveillance.
>>31461844
>Overt spying
or maybe he said covert. I ca't really tell from the video. I think what he actually did physically trespass into east Germany to conduct spying, not working through assets.
>>31460978
The last time I was scared, I was a child - and I once parachuted out of an airplane while people on the ground were shooting at me.
Stop being a child.
>>31460978
Lol pat mac is the shit. Would totally spend time with him if given the opportunity. One of the most genuine and enthusiastic instructors I have ever seen. I really wish his social media was more active. I enjoy watching everything he puts out.
>>31462550
>>31460978
What the hell? Seems like a normal guy.
Back to OP, what sort of unbringing creates twisted people like you?
>>31462711
If being a normal adult male means being a badass then yes, you have one over here.
>>31462550
I jumped out of a plane too, not scary.
People weren't shooting at me though, they know better.
>>31462999
In the Army, we call people like you a "leg."
>>31462819
>Seems like a normal guy.
There is nothing normal about the guy in this video. He's hyper aware, on edge and ready to go. That's not what you'd expect to see in such a relaxed setting. He's actually dropping words and talking super quick; thoughts are sporadic. Combine that with the fact that he is an extremely aggressive and well trained and very competent killing machine, hey he's a little scary.
>>31462550
You remind me of somebody...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I23fjRN-PGc
>>31460978
he's been in the wild for too long, he's know the land wayyyy too well
I'd go with him
>>31463080
Except her story was untrue.
Hiking with this guy would be amazing. I'd learn some shit for sure. PS I'm not sure he didn't trap an osprey and eat it.
>>31463055
lol. I guess you're a huge sperglord incapable of normal human interaction. Leave mom's basement more often as >>31461339 suggested.
>>31460978
Hiking with him would be super fun.
Coming across him in the middle of nowhere and you don't know of him would be very scary.
>>31463219
>scary
Jesus Christ, dude. I bet your shadow startles you too.
>>31460978
>Imagine hiking alone with this guy.
If went hiking with him, you wouldn't be hiking alone, you putz.
>>31463247
>a 6 foot 200 pound man with 15 years experience doing nothing but killing people in the most efficient and extreme ways, and god knows how many more died to the hands of Pat in East Germany
You're full of shit if he wouldn't scare the shit out of you.
>>31460978
He seems to have anger related issues.
>>31460978
For anyone who doesn't know, this is Pat McNamara. I don't quite know how to describe him other than the fact that he appears to put 110% effort into literally everything he does. Better to watch this
https://youtu.be/hOliF5FoAA8
>>31463495
You should excuse yourself and head to the restroom. Make sure you still have a set of balls.
Time to grow up and face the reality of killing another human being. If your life is in danger, you protect it. Be constantly ready for that and carry out your day in a normal fashion. In other words, be a man.
>>31463051
straight leg here. Wanna tell me about all them combat jumps you did? Because I don't recall any in any conflict I've partaken in.
>>31463495
why would he scare me though? I didn't do shit to him or nature/birds. I know guys like similar in high energy, type a personality. He's just into whatever he's doing. I don't see how he's threatening or angry like others are saying.
>>31463978
Operation Just Cause. You are so pleased with yourself. But you're still a fucking leg.
>>31464002
Are you rocking the spic stache?
>>31463587
fucking try hard faggot, 10/10 would invite him hunting with me just to see how flustered he gets when I light up or smoke or crack open a beer. Seems like a great person for hobbies though, like "ayy bro, going to do some hunting before work this morning, you down?" Followed by some shit like "Let's pull an all nighter fuck these hookers and smuggle a few k's of cocaine before work?"
>>31464053
>tfw he joins in and gets
>>31464002
fucking airborne, how goddamn old are you bud? I bet my knees are older at least.
>>31464100
45. I was 18 during Just Cause. My knees are fucked too.
>>31464110
I know they are. On a serious note, you fuck any girls while you're there and now their daughter is in the U.S?
>>31464152
I swear those women were throwing themselves at us. The Spanish speaking dudes were getting the prime but us baby faced fuckers were not left behind!
I'm sure he's acting a bit for the camera, no one can be THAT intense all the time, right?
Anyone seen him IRL?
>inb4 candy bars copypasta
Pat Mac is like all of 80's wrestling crammed unto a single person minus drug addiction.
>Hoo yeahhhh Live life to its fullest, BURN IT DOWN!
>>31464250
I wonder how well he'd talk with my Spyderco shoved in his neck.
>>31464263
>knife by name, doesn't own a gun, Freudian slip demonstrating fear.
We found the autist, we can all go home now.
>>31464257
>>31464310
I have a G30 and a RR1911.
I know enough about freudian slips that you bungled that one.
And yes, I can back my shit up.
You?
>>31464334
Not that anon but do you like the 30? I wanted to replace my recently sold only .45 in my small collection and was eyeing the 30. Dig how it looks with the flush 9rd magazine in it.
>>31464334
I can back your shit up if you know what I mean. Basically you're retarded insecure and a homosexual.
>>31464263
Forget spyderco, you'll do way more damage with that edge of yours.
This guy and Pat walk into a bar...
>>31465825
The bartender says, "Why the half face?"
>>31465873
Pat Macnamara BURNS IT DOWN!
>that kind of intensity and edge
>that feel when you realize he's been retired for a tad bit over a decade
Listened to some podcast that featured him couple of days ago, some interesting details came up. Dude's had a hernia forever that he refuses to operate, he "just pushes it back in" apparently. Also he was the person who made Delta invest into fitness specialists and pro trainers from outside to come to the unit to teach the dudes how to work out.
post rare patmacs
>>31466472
>tfw will never be this fucking rad
>>31465825

>>31466629
Imagine riding the little birds with that dude for 15 years and what that would do to you.
>>31466472
>>31466824

I'm pretty sure a thrash metal cover of danger zone would be playing in your head 24/7.

>>31466890
Well shit, I stand corrected.
>>31466890

I've got somewhere to be in 30 mins, so dumping some rare PatMac till then.

>>31467026
Yes he was, up to 2005 I think.
>>31467050
Ok last one.
>>31467050
I remember reading in one of Dalton Fury's books about how by far the hardest thing a delta operator can go through is retiring and driving out of Delta compound for the last time.
How do you even go from something like that to another thing in your life.
>>31460978
>Imagine hiking alone with this guy.
you wouldn't be hiking alone if you were with someone, dingus.
>>31460978
One thing to note from that video is how he's so absolutely aware of his environment and everything around him. Every animal, every sound, the weather, bird calls, the geography.
Observation is a skill to be trained and practiced like any other.
>>31467059
Is that a gun in your pants or
IM NOT SCARED OF ANYTHING, IF YOU SAY IM SCARED ILL BEAT YOU UP
>>31466956
Imagine getting rolled up by a snatch and grab team, getting punched until you pass out, wake up tied to a chair with a black hood on your head that gets ripped off and that face is the first thing you see.
>>31461816
Pat is like that all the time though, he's howls like crazy when he taking shits.
>>31460978
>Deze merganzers, doing merganzer stuff
Sounds like a bro to me
>>31466863

I'm heterosexually attracted to this man.
I love how down to earth he seems, and how his interests and hobbies are so close to the outdoors

>>31470303
Holy shit
>Social media has informed me that lots of people do not like LEOs. I have been bombarded by film clips of cops tuning up some POS. Sometimes the clips have subtitles or are put to music or include a narrative. A recent one was narrated by that pinko douche nugget Bill Maher. In his lefty diatribe, he pissed and moaned about how abusive LEOs are and referred to them as Jack Booted Thugs, because they wear assault kit. His rant included video clips of ass whoopings. As I watch these clips, one thing comes to my mind…95% of the time, that is: “That shit licker deserved it.”
>If I ever put my cops in a position where they have to question whether or not I am hostile, or compliant, because there is a clear distinction, I deserve to get throttled. If I am resisting arrest, and if I am not beaten to within an inch of my life by my LEOs, I will think of them as pussies.

What is going on here?
>>31460978
Me and my IRL friends were once hiking and the woods and we came across a dead deer. Then some guy came up to us and told us that somebody had shot the deer illegally. Then he started talking about some job he had in Florida where the company was polluting the environment but the government wouldn't do anything about it. And then he just kept following us for some reason. He kept talking about how corporations were ruining the Earth and something about the Federal Reserve. The guy was with us for like an hour. He also had some weird conspiracy theory about the Vietnam War not being real. If I ever see that guy in the woods again, I'm just gonna start running.

You have to go back.
Hiking The Bob is a Delta tradition. You have to hike the motherfucker EVERY YEAR.
I'd chill the fuck out with this hombre.
Course the only thing i'd worry about is if he had some PTSD flashbacks and i end up getting my throat slit.
>>31464250
I've taken a class from him, and he teaches at the school I go to pretty regularly.
The videos are a bit pumped up, but that is pretty much him.
Genuinely nice guy, you can be chubby or ripped, he doesn't care as long as you give it your best.
>>31476413
Just some dude had a cameo on a movie once. Oh and he makes some knives I guess.

anything special about the Bob hike? is it an unusually mountainous area? do they need any particular weight limit?

I would love to sit around a campfire with this guy, drinking beers, and listening to stories about shit he's not supposed to talk about.
We need a better mechanism to let these guys stay in the military.

He kinda looks like a buff psycho version of James Hetfield there.

I was waiting for him to say
>then my next assignment was to find and destroy metal gear"
>>31466978
are you gonna take out the cardstand?
>>31463495
He wasn't some bloodthirsty maniac, he was a professional killer. Sure, that may have made him nuts, but he's not just gonna snap on someone who's done nothing to warrant it.

>>31464438
underrated
>>31461844
>>31461865
I watched a couple of his videos, I think you're both right; he did actual spying and also worked the double agents.
>>31487730
Yeah, it's almost like firearms ownership is a right to be enjoyed by all citizens, you fucking statist.
>>31463055
He probably goes out into the Bob to get back to what it was like deployed, where you don't have the safety net of civilization and potential threats exist.
>>31473934
Where did he say that?
>>31462550
>I was somehow able to 100% suppress a reactionary emotion that doubles as the activator of the flight or fight response
What is it about special forces retirees that make for such zen-like attitudes? Is it from being exposed to such high stress that they weed out the weakness in their selves?
When I was a AF weather troop one of the last guys to supervise and train me as an Airman was a former HALO and SOWT guy. He was EXACTLY like Pat. He retired with 22 years, and just focuses on teaching cub/boy scouts and church. How?!
>>31487917
I figured, unless they are completely battle scarred by PTSD, civ life is so calm compared to opr8ing that they can't help but not give a fuck.
I mean if you spend your adult life shooting people and getting shot at, nothing in civ life will be stressful by comparison.
