This is brilliant! It both reminds me of the pain of beating it and how awesome the death screams in that game are.

@DougQuaid: We are Oscar Mike to your lima zulu, DougQuaid actual. Those tangos are wearing uniforms, we need a kilo of cocaine to rent their Alpha Romeos. Charlie says bravo, but the echo on these delta blues records are better than the foxtrot. My girlfriend Juliet called her papa, Oscar, and he's totally SNAFU so I gotta get there by November. My golf game is FUBAR, so I'm calling my pro Sierra at the Quebec Hilton Hotel PDQ before I can play in India. My doctor Victor read my xray, and now I can't drink whiskey. Also, fuck the Yankees.

Anyone else spoil the outcome by checking Brad's achievements to see if he got it?

I remember getting this achievement. I got it the first week the game was out. Little did I know the achievement would become so infamous.

Somehow watching Brad play this level over and over again isn't making me insane... Can't figure it out.

This stole about a week of my life and probably made me age 5 years within that week! But it was so worth it for the beautiful 1,000 GS...

Man I remember banging my head against the wall for this back in the day. I had it down to a science, but I was always just a second or two slow.

I hope Brad studies how to beat this and tries it again. Because I think he can do it if he uses some strategy. Also, if he doesn't get shot by bathroom guy.

After 53:10 when Brad throws a flash by mistake it totally hit's a guy in the head. It's fantastic.

There should be an optional director's commentary with Brad on these. Maybe they could even get Gary Whitta to dispense his FPS wisdom on it too?

I feel so bad for Brad. He's already screaming at the half-hour mark, and this video is... two hours long.

As someone who perfected this and did it a few times successfully, this learning process was painful to watch.

Ryan: "Why does the plane explode?"

Jeff: "Why wouldn't it?"

Brad: "Because Call of Duty."

That was awesome conversation :)
