  • The only thing that ...

    The only thing that annoys me on this kind of "documentary" is that any elite unit is portrayed as superhuman. They use terms like "a range unimaginable for sniper" which shows their boulevard-quality and their lacking qualification.
    When he asks him if he is affected by what he has done, the guy sounds like if he wanted to know if it really was like in all the movies he had seen about war.
    Wow, look at the superhuman sniper, hes so elite, that his country made him a cop on patrol-duty I'm awed.
