Ex-Sniper Nicholas Irving on War Stories, Who Snipers Aim For, Body Parts to Target (Full Interview)

Ex-Army sniper Sgt. Nicholas Irving returned to VladTV to discuss various topics involving his life in the military and America's current affairs in foreign territories. He began by picking apart Hollywood films that depict war environments, arguing that movies only show 1% of what actually occurs. He also criticized the government for its treatment of soldiers once they were off the battlefield. Later in the interview, he spoke about his experiences as a sniper and being labeled a psychopath for the amount of lives he and his battalion claimed. Irving also provided tips to viewers on how to respond during physical altercations and home invasions and listed some of the legendary snipers before his time. Finally, Irving offered his thoughts on America's involvement in the Ukraine-Russia war, the Israel-Hamas war, and much more.

Best guest that’s ever been on this channel. Real Humble Beast.

[prezi]

Who watched every clip and still came back to watch the full interview uninterrupted?😅

[casa]

Been ignoring all the clips so I can see this one full 😭

[billyboy]

Top 3 Vlad TV interviews ever Shawn Prez you the man!! So are you Nicholas Irving!! Blessings to the both of you always

[Slaughtermayne]

Hope this dude stays safe after this interview, he dropped the facts our parents generation still can't accept and blatantly ignore out of denial.

[xxlonglivejody]

“I watched atheists become preachers after that deployment..” dangg 🙏🏼

[keithlopez]

Thank you for your service. My father served in the army. Again, thank you.

[ahadfall]

He's one of my favorite guests..if not my favorite..very articulate and forthcoming about his past

[DpeSince]

Well done prez! Man this convo could’ve gone on for another few hours…this bother dropped so many gems from a genuine place, and you gave him the space to express himself. As a listener, I appreciate that. And thank you, Mr. Irving, for your service

[peezy]

Finally Been waiting the whole week for this

[hustlekhan]

That trait he is talking about pretty accurate. I have met 2 different snipers and both happen to be super chill surfers.

[jayr]

All the SEALs on YouTube can learn a thing or two from this man.

[eyezlikeydrums]

Nicholas Irving and Shawn Prez are easily the best interviews on this vlad channel. Bravo to both Irving & Prez. Appreciate cha' both for all of this greatness!

[underworldunraveled]

This guy is a legend man I'm glad that Shawn gave him his flowers in the start of this interview.

[thecowboypreacher]

This man is such a thoughtful and well spoken person. It’s shocking at times how candid and honest he is about his experiences, the regrets, the struggles he’s had afterwards, but also how he can admit that he feels his service didn’t make a difference. After all that I imagine it would be tough for a person to continue living without some sense of deeper spiritual purpose and awareness. Repentance you may call it. I know his son is a major part of it but I would love to hear more about his spiritual practices and how he finds the strength to move forward

[shaunno]

I could really listen to this man talk all day! Very informative.

[anthonymartinez]

I wish I had this man as a friend in my life ! A lot of knowledge at a young age! I’m glad we got soldiers like this in our country

[Mr.Suave]

One of the few interviews I hate that they turn into multiple clips

[damionmorse]

I can listen to this guy talk all day. Very interesting takes- he’s humble and truthful. He had a bird eye view of how corrupt government is.

[NeverrNirvana]

This guys nickname is the reaper of death… this dude is as badass as they come. You’d never assume he’s the most dangerous person in any room he’s in because of his humble and soft spoken tone
