One night he was driving home from the bar, he was drunk...he was a bad alcoholic. He ran a stopped sign and hit a fire hydrant, it messed up his truck's radiator, he went down the road as far as he could and parked it on the shoulder, grabbed his cell phone and took off for the woods. He knew all they could charge him with was leaving the scene of an accident. He stayed in those woods for 2 days and nights. He hitched a ride with one of the other instructors up to Nashville on that Friday afternoon. A week later he went back to get his truck out the impound lot. The tow truck driver told him 3 sheriffs deputies showed up and one of said to the other 2 " which one of y'all's coming with me to go get him?" Tow truck driver said the other 2 deputies said "fuck you, that's John Rambo out in those woods!". 😂😢😂😢

Did my boot and AIT at benning and thought I could kick the world’s ass till I got to my permanent duty station Ft drum 10th mountain division. It was the hardest thing I ever did in my life and really made my parents proud (both are dead now) and my grandparents. It was hard as shit but I wouldn’t take one thing back from it. I still can’t believe I did some of the shit we did physically and mentally.

I love the contrast, rambo in the Beginning looks innocent and calm and there he's completely brutal ans ruthless, that's exactly what PTSD is

I love how in this scene, it's cleverly presented to look like a horror movie scene. Obviously the sheriffs are being hunted down one by one, but with no deaths. The cinematography, the music and tone of the backdrop (thunderstorm, evening and contrasts of lights and darks of surroundings due to the time of day/thunder) is very eerie and ominous. The setting is also an allegory to the terrain back in the Vietnam War in which Rambo fought in with the U.S. infantry encountering similar booby traps/terrain. Only this time Rambo is the hunter... The best Rambo in my humble opinion🙏💯

The Vietnam war completely changed how wars were done through the use of booby traps. Yes they had been used in other wars but not to the extent that they were in that conflict due to the Viet Cong not being a standing army like in previous wars. So brutal were the traps they used that using them after became a war crime. While Teasle was a former Soldier, he was ill prepared for the kind of war Rambo brought down on him.

I saw it in the theater and WOW! It was the best movie I had seen in my 14 years LOL. I still enjoy it to the fullest. Now that I am vet, I can empathize with the character of Rambo. If you weren't there you wouldn't understand. I digress, it was a helluva an experience in the dark of the theater.

Spoiler Alert: He didn’t let it go.

The one thing that stuck with me for years is at the end of the massacre, he said " I only wanted something to eat!"🤣🤣

Watched this movie countless times and I still feel sorry for Mitch, the only lawman who had some compassion for Rambo, who still stabs him, and then gets shot by his own colleague in the confusion and panic. Teasle gets off lightly that time but he wouldn't let it go. He was lucky his actions didn't require a good supply of bodybags.

This is an excellent example of the terror, anxiety, and dread of being in Vietnam. Even down to the setting is an allegory for Vietnam. The trees, the rain and thunder, as well as the weapons used (M16's)

He was also the law in Judge Dredd

Brian Dennehy was a great actor, but what's interesting about this scene is that he was cast in what appeared to be a tough-guy role (as he often was cast), yet his character, the sheriff, ended up as vulnerable in opposition to Rambo. You can see it in Dennehy's acting, how he is emotionally traumatized by what Rambo just did to him and his deputies. Very convincing. RIP Mr. Dennehy, who I should also mention was a graduate of Columbia University.

I love at 6:43 when Rambo applies some pressure to the knife to make Teasle look him in the eye. God this movie is great.

They're not trapping him in a forest, They're trapped in a forest with him.

Five times he could have killed them, Five times he let them live , his intention was never to kill them but it was instead to embarrass them. Because in the jungle there can be only one KING. And he is a true huntsman. With the heart of a lion.

I met the Mexican guy who played Rambo's double in stunt scenes. Handsome fella who looked just like Sly Stallone. He was posing for action photos with tourists in Mexico City parks. Saddest thing that an actor ended up like that. He was much taller than Sly and almost identical face. I wish we could have given him acting roles here, but he was probably a threat to Sly himself. He was tall, very muscular, and had the same features - like his twin. I felt so sad about that.

I think the greatest hidden fact of this movie most don’t know is that teasle is also a veteran. In one scene I’m pretty sure you can see a bronze star on his desk. It’s also mentioned in the book. To me it says teasle could’ve very well been through some/a lot of the same things Rambo was, and maybe he saw a younger version of himself, he wanted to forget or erase, and that was taken out on Rambo. Ineffectively I might add.
