This is a documentary about and shot by a guy who went to the middle east for adventure because he lived a sheltered life and felt that it'd make him a man, and then he got involved in the Syrian civil war and held in solitary confinement for 6 months and then was freed by the rebels and kept fighting and shooting footage (that was what he went to the middle east to do, he wanted to record his adventures on video to make a movie).  

Pretty interesting documentary.  I'm suprised by how many of the Syrian rebels have cell phones and stand out there in blasting ammo at god knows what for no apparent reason just to record themselves looking like bad asses.   Doesn't seem like this guy was like that though, but he was surrounded by those clowns.

Also interesting that in one point he shoots a Qadaffi loyalist (kind of "breaking his cherry" because up til that point he hadn't been able to actually see the face of the people he was shooting) with a suppressed FN F2000.  He missed, and he felt bad that he missed.  But he didn't miss on purpose, he actually tried to hit him.

I hadn't seen it but will watch.

I'm not.

That and "spray and pray" seem to be SOP in that corner of the world.

I gotta tell ya, after watching that documentary I kind of feel like flying out and going to fight ISIS.

I watched it.

His OCD was funny at times.

He strikes me as an idealist that didn't know what he was getting into & survived by sheer luck.

Awesome documentary for sure!  Absolutely insane some of the stuff he did and saw.

Just watched it.

Very interesting / fascinating journey.

Haven't seen it yet, but intend to when I get a chance.

I'm going to watch, it looks pretty good. Thanks for posting.

Yep. Couldn't finish it though.

I can't decide if I like the dude or not. I thoroughly enjoyed the film, but can figure if he'd be someone I'd befriend.

I'd definitely have a beer and chat with him. He wanted to make a change in himself. He found something he was willing to fight for, got spanked with that imprisonment, and had the gonads to go right back. I was really struck by his admittance of feeling like he was acting when he turned his camera on, and being torn about getting footage vs actually fighting.

Worth a watch, and I feel a pretty interesting insight into the adventures my generation have available to them.

I'll have to check it out.

I watched it last week. Was that FS2000 sighted in?

Probably as sighted in as any other rifle over there.

Dude is a chode bucket, so I couldn't bring myself to watch it.
