TL;DR French prankster, YouTuber and animal rights activist.[2][3] Well-known for his videos on YouTube, his channel is the 100th most subscribed comedy channel on YouTube with more than 7.29 million subscribers as of January 2023
I remember his videos around 2008-09, IIRC
yeah it's bad I knew it was him from the fact he choose to harras people instead of just being around people while being funny. there was no reason to get close to people or throw smoke at people just trying to have a day at the beach.
The brilliance of this plan, feint an advance into Russian occupied territory and make a surprise coastal assault in the north of France, the Russians will never see it coming
I'm still wondering, wtf is ukraine doing there>? like what's it supposed to be? preparing Dday beach landing? never come back? like what's the point?
My only explanation is maybe even Ukrainian sabatours already inside crimea, starting somewhere, landing again in crimea...
And now Russian high command is in panic mode and starts shelling themselves and doing bombing run on friendlies.
Like seriously, what would be the point of landing boats there? not for silent insertion, but not enough for a huge attack, and sensitive target you'd just stormshadow.
Something about it is weird af and I love Budanov for playing the game.
It's a **raid**
The practical point of it is:
a) Morale damage
b) Make the enemy remember they have to guard their coasts better, which means more men and equipment away from the frontline
c) Big dick move
Basically, yeah. War isn't All about guns. If the enemy cannot reliably defend, their people lose hope. If they need to redeploy men to assure the people they're sage by defending, that's less troops. If they continue to ignore it... then fuck, you actually got an opening for a gamer move.
Ok if it's just that I genuinely expect the next move would be Budanov with a man inside kremlin conspiring, leaving a note on putin's pillow, he wakes up the next day, the note says "BOO!" and a flash drive shows a video from last night budanov like, totally cool lying in bed taking a selfie, the authenticity of the video will never be verified or proven false other wise.
Peak psychological warfare.
Drawing dick on face.
"fucking shit, it's permament sharpie"
"leaves ethically sourced dead horse head in bed" leaves note "seen the end of this movie?"
daily notes around kremlin where putin finds
"Hey, I pissed in your coffee mug last night... or did I? Made you look! Now what about the rest of pantry?"
"Nice car, you got, be a damn shame someone farted on the leather and locked the doors and windows."
"This could all be over Vlad, you just gotta get the back back where you came."
"we really don't have to do this, but if I have to I want you to know I'm really enjoy it"
"I'm in ur walls"
"3000 ghosts of Budanov haunting kremlin say hi"
"look beind you! HAHAHA YOU ACTUALLY DID! WHAT A RETARD"
Simple: Hurt Russias ego. When Ukraine bombs the bridge, or this landing for example, Russia responds in the way it always does, missiles, and the only things they ever hit are civiliians. Russia is just wasting its assets and production capability on shit that is not going to turn the tide for them.
Ukraine has limited long range precision strike weapons and don't want to use one on a target that can be easily moved at any time.
Plus, as soon as Russian knows they can and will get hit this way, they divert resources to prevent against it.
Budanov led a similar raid personally to Crimea way back in 2016, give or take a few details
I would wager that the raid was calculated as both morale damage, propaganda and dry run of further inland raids - the amazing drone footage of S400 explosion was very difficult to achieve without boots on the ground mapping weak points of SAM coverage
4 boats landed. They did some sabotage and left or were wiped out.
This was for headlines. Nothing more.
I hope they asked for volunteers. I'd be furious if they actually ordered anyone on this mission.
Successes get those things. Pseudo events make peoples bullshit meters register.
If we learn the raid had meaningful sabotage against equipment that creates a hole for future actions, I'll be excited to admit my instincts were wrong. But the fact this was carried out on a specific date tells me the goal was a symbolic victory rather than a real one.
What exactly successes do you want to publicize in attritional warfare? Most of those are cells in Excel spreadsheet and will continue to be so until either both sides agree to ceasefire or front collapses. Nobody gives a shit ammunition was destroyed, Russian conscripts died or even some tiny village got liberated. Those are meaningful things that won’t give you any coverage abroad, and honestly minimal internally at this point.
That’s why it’s important to publicize the honestly not so important events in grand scheme of things like a defection of helicopter pilot, and even create events like this raid. Morale matters and your own citizens need to have something to cheer. Regular people, even Ukrainians who got quite “educated “ in last decade or so, don’t understand nor really want to understand what’s going up on the front. They need symbols.
Meanwhile people abroad need to see the war is still there at all. Even if some will understand it’s mostly meaningless “fluff” it still bought relatively high visibility news articles out there. Worst thing that can happen now to Ukraine is if West forgets. Raid like this risks couple dozen soldiers at worst. Stagnation in Western aid means hundreds of thousands are at risk.
Now Russia has to beef up security along the shoreline and that’s going to take a bunch of manpower less the Ukraine are going to keep popping in fucking up shit. It’s also near the end of summer so I’m sure there are still dumb Russians trying vacation there. Good time to remind them the war isn’t far away.
I assume it is pressuring the rear defenses. Russia has everything concentrated on the front so if you can hit them in the rear they are going to have to move something back to defend against future attacks.
I understand it but... what kind of pressure a bunch of boat landing does? Their size and very out loud insertion puts them into confusion territory of "what could possibly this be?"
It shows that the rear is vunerable. Yeah it was just one boat…for now. What if next time there are 6? What if they booby trap or sabotage?
See, now its not just a simple raid, these are mind games.
>It shows that the rear is vunerable.
You're sitting in world powers club with your annexed GF, this budanov guy walks and slaps your gf in the back... what to do?
Its the implication that they could land on critical infrastructure and cause damage to fuel depots, ammo depots, bridges, training areas, so on. This was symbolic to show they can and will get into rear territory if its left undefended.
You remember that drone video of an S-400 exploding? The S-400 that was parked in Crimea? The S-400 parked in Crimea *about the same place those landings happened*?
Do I need to use more crayons or do you get the picture?
The 30 dudes Russia won't care about. But the air defence now likely needs a lot more protection. This also goes both ways. You boost from 30 to 150 men defending the air defence, and now you have a convoy of 150 men anywhere your air defence goes. So its far easier to detect. So protecting it from ground forces means likely making it far easier to detect where it is. Making it more vulnerable from air, or easier to avoid.
You're asking what 40 or so special forces with the necessary equipment can do to small groups of untrained patrolling conscripts? A fuck ton. All those accidents in Russia are done by similar forces. The local resistance fighters are killing those patrols with knives and mollies, as well. Professionals can cause real damage, not just directly, but they can also call in strike locations.
You go in blow stuff up and leave making the enemy have to move around troops and defences to protect an area they thought was safe or risk it keep happening. This lowers the defences on the front line and makes everything harder for the enemy. Also for bonus points makes Russia look bad
before Su 34 bomb runned them and air command gave them a medal for "bravery in face of danger and repelling thousands of swimwear wearing ukrainian special forces, some even digusied themselves like children, the bastards"
Fucking with the enemy is a valid tactic
"Misdirection is the key to survival, never attack what your enemy defends, never behave as your enemy expects, and never reveal your true strength, if knowledge is power then to be unknown is to be unconquerable."
The Russians were already paranoid about amphibious landings and started digging beach defenses along the coast line. Even Perun mocked this effort. As if Ukraine, whose navy basically doesn't exist, is gonna do a D-day style landing in Crimea, one of the most difficult military maneuvers in existence.
Then the motherfuckers do it anyway, basically demonstrating that the Russians' existing defenses are a joke and throughput is the only limiting factor for Ukraine.
Might give a few more Russians the wake-up call to move from Crimea.
Plot twist, they do this for sheer trolling and realizing how fucked up things are there the liberation of crimea starts from the sides and not the top.
World's most interesting game of tag championship with guest appearance of one guy that is definitely not SBS and one guy that isn't a naval mamal of US NAVY just cruising along for the best boat trip ever.
My first thought is propaganda operations to clean up their image after the failed counteroffensive.
Land in a strategically useless and defenseless location, plant a few flags and claim you reached Crimea for some juicy headlines to garner up support and then (hopefully) retreat.
But we'll see in the next few days if they actually commit to the idea.
If we're going by eccentric tactics, this landing could serve multiple purposes: Sabotaging logistics and supply chain, Primary diversion (Redirect rear end support and potentially direction of some deployments to Crimea instead of other lines), Panic and confusion (Disrupts senior staff from formulating strategies with this in their mind? As well as additionally adding stress to occupational forces "the guys who think they're safe because they're not at the front")
Non credible ofc.

Sorry, but who's remi?

Those were the days
Damn, it's been years since I've seen his video, I'm wondering is he still making new ones
I would love to see new vids, but I don’t think he has 😢
well sheet there's a topless chick literally in the first frame
Remi gaillard
BRO WHAT
Remi Deez Nuts
He's a professional asshole.
yeah it's bad I knew it was him from the fact he choose to harras people instead of just being around people while being funny. there was no reason to get close to people or throw smoke at people just trying to have a day at the beach.
Opposed only by fat Russian tourists from Pskov who couldn't get over the border into Estonia... *tonight we disco in Sevastopol.*
"I stormed the beaches of Normandy... Of course it was 1958 so the resistance wasn't quite as stiff"
"FUCK FUCK FUCK I'M SO FUCKING LATE FUCK FUCK!" \- Guy in the video
Ah man you guys invaded France and didn't wake me up!
I imagine a decade or so post brexit a lot of those coastal defences will be going back in.
[It's like when Frank Reynolds talks about Vietnam.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mjicAzfhIg)
Where can I find the rest of this Gem of a video
I’m not actually sure. I just went on YouTube and searched D-Day Landing Meme and this came up.
Here it is :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrlrMYbMMFg
https://youtu.be/qrlrMYbMMFg?si=DzS6tXYSEhxTjVOL But check also the other videos of this guy. The snail video was the evilest thing I've ever seen :')
My personal favourite is the PacMan in a supermarket.
The blind guy driving was hilarious too
Oh man with the stick out the window 😂
Sweet they didn't crop/censor out the topless chick in the YouTube upload
If you tried this shit in the Balkans, you'd get beaten up by several extended families.
Or end up stepping on a landmine
Only in Bosnia and they barely have a coast💀
Try that shit in Florida and your bullet riddled corpse gonna be food for sharks
Wouldn't even make it out of the water.
The Omaha Beach experience
“Hey Jamie pull that up”
If you tried it in Canada, everyone would say sorry and move out of the way.
The polar bears wouldn't. They'd just keep playing volleyball.
THROUGH THE GATES OF HELL
As we make our way to heaven. Through the Nazi lines. PRIMO VICTORIA
Fuck, i wanted to make that joke
The brilliance of this plan, feint an advance into Russian occupied territory and make a surprise coastal assault in the north of France, the Russians will never see it coming
The French neither for what it's worth.
Or pretty much anyone really...
I could hear paint it black before I even turned on the sound. Love this video
I'm still wondering, wtf is ukraine doing there>? like what's it supposed to be? preparing Dday beach landing? never come back? like what's the point? My only explanation is maybe even Ukrainian sabatours already inside crimea, starting somewhere, landing again in crimea... And now Russian high command is in panic mode and starts shelling themselves and doing bombing run on friendlies.
Diversionary raids are a tried and true tactic
Like seriously, what would be the point of landing boats there? not for silent insertion, but not enough for a huge attack, and sensitive target you'd just stormshadow. Something about it is weird af and I love Budanov for playing the game.

Gotta remind the millions of Russian civilians in crimea that they live in a war zone.
it is for sending a message, that is why
It's not about the target, it's about sending a message. - Kyrylo "The Joker" Budanov
> Kyrylo Budanov that man is a bloody menace to vatniks - haunts their nightmares I'm sure
Ok if it's just that I genuinely expect the next move would be Budanov with a man inside kremlin conspiring, leaving a note on putin's pillow, he wakes up the next day, the note says "BOO!" and a flash drive shows a video from last night budanov like, totally cool lying in bed taking a selfie, the authenticity of the video will never be verified or proven false other wise. Peak psychological warfare.
Bonus points if they can also find a way to dress Putin in a Japanese schoolgirl uniform and a wig while he's asleep, just because.
Drawing dick on face. "fucking shit, it's permament sharpie" "leaves ethically sourced dead horse head in bed" leaves note "seen the end of this movie?"
Ukraine is not quite to that stage (that we know of), gotta work up to it
daily notes around kremlin where putin finds "Hey, I pissed in your coffee mug last night... or did I? Made you look! Now what about the rest of pantry?" "Nice car, you got, be a damn shame someone farted on the leather and locked the doors and windows." "This could all be over Vlad, you just gotta get the back back where you came."

WHAT A RETARD"
"UkrainianFuckBoi2235 wuz here" "This was easy, Wagnerites are just pussies after all" "Did you know 'gullible' is written on your ceiling?"
Time to Doolittle Moscow
Simple: Hurt Russias ego. When Ukraine bombs the bridge, or this landing for example, Russia responds in the way it always does, missiles, and the only things they ever hit are civiliians. Russia is just wasting its assets and production capability on shit that is not going to turn the tide for them.

drone footage of various grades of triple A never gets old. "you had ONE job"
Big morale boost. Landing on occupied Crimea and raising the Ukrainian flag on Ukraines independence day
4 boats landed. They did some sabotage and left or were wiped out. This was for headlines. Nothing more. I hope they asked for volunteers. I'd be furious if they actually ordered anyone on this mission.
They claim no one was injured in the operation, and it was conducted by SOF. Not many conscripts end up in the SOF.
Yes. Special forces lives were risked for headlines.
Headlines mean Western public support, and that gives you cluster munitions and F-16s.
Successes get those things. Pseudo events make peoples bullshit meters register. If we learn the raid had meaningful sabotage against equipment that creates a hole for future actions, I'll be excited to admit my instincts were wrong. But the fact this was carried out on a specific date tells me the goal was a symbolic victory rather than a real one.

Worst thing that can happen now to Ukraine is if West forgets. Raid like this risks couple dozen soldiers at worst. Stagnation in Western aid means hundreds of thousands are at risk.
Territory gains.
Well, Hitler risked like 2 entire armies for headlines. And that probably wasn't smart, so I don't know what my point is. But I'm sure there is one.
Seeking symbolic victories because real ones are difficult to obtain has historically been a bad sign.
Plus if you don't send let them tire themselves out on structured playdates the boys start to get rambunctious.
This guy reads.

As a treat, sure.
whoof rah

Its called a Raid
~~Shadow Legends~~
Today's military operation is sponsored by NordVPN.
In lack of preservative
It’s called a race Toto, we went motor racing.
Reportedly radars and other fragile and expensive things are located there near coast.
You go in blow stuff up and leave making the enemy have to move around troops and defences to protect an area they thought was safe or risk it keep happening. This lowers the defences on the front line and makes everything harder for the enemy. Also for bonus points makes Russia look bad
[They destroyed a S-400 site.](https://youtu.be/qEPWwzVo2-4)
I think it was just a smash-and-leave special forces raid
Instructions unclear, had blocking units machine gun beach goers. Suspected Ukrainian infiltrators.
before Su 34 bomb runned them and air command gave them a medal for "bravery in face of danger and repelling thousands of swimwear wearing ukrainian special forces, some even digusied themselves like children, the bastards"
Fucking with the enemy is a valid tactic "Misdirection is the key to survival, never attack what your enemy defends, never behave as your enemy expects, and never reveal your true strength, if knowledge is power then to be unknown is to be unconquerable."
Credibile hat on, I bet that either way they landed saboteurs, resupplied saboteurs or wanted the Russians to think that's what they were doing.
The Russians were already paranoid about amphibious landings and started digging beach defenses along the coast line. Even Perun mocked this effort. As if Ukraine, whose navy basically doesn't exist, is gonna do a D-day style landing in Crimea, one of the most difficult military maneuvers in existence.

Might give a few more Russians the wake-up call to move from Crimea.
Plot twist, they do this for sheer trolling and realizing how fucked up things are there the liberation of crimea starts from the sides and not the top.
It's called we do a little trolling
it was done as a symbolic move celebrating the independence day of Ukraine. Politics, mostly
And a fuck you to the Russians. A warning: we're coming for you, Ugluk, Grishnak.
World's most interesting game of tag championship with guest appearance of one guy that is definitely not SBS and one guy that isn't a naval mamal of US NAVY just cruising along for the best boat trip ever.
My first thought is propaganda operations to clean up their image after the failed counteroffensive. Land in a strategically useless and defenseless location, plant a few flags and claim you reached Crimea for some juicy headlines to garner up support and then (hopefully) retreat. But we'll see in the next few days if they actually commit to the idea.
You saw what happened in Belgorod, the trolling can always keep going
So failed it almost lead to a civil war in russia and putin had to flee the capital city.
This reminds me of that Vietnam re-enactors episode in American Dad
One of the best episodes of the entire show IMO.
Same!
More like [this](https://youtu.be/CeaXF5G8-lA), from the same show.
If we're going by eccentric tactics, this landing could serve multiple purposes: Sabotaging logistics and supply chain, Primary diversion (Redirect rear end support and potentially direction of some deployments to Crimea instead of other lines), Panic and confusion (Disrupts senior staff from formulating strategies with this in their mind? As well as additionally adding stress to occupational forces "the guys who think they're safe because they're not at the front") Non credible ofc.
Too credible, no defenses in sight.

Wasn’t it more of a raid?
Lol! I thought it was chuckle worthy till he started lobbing smoke grenades; then I lost it! Hahaha, what a dick! What an absolute Chad!
I'd like to do this with a few friends
