HOOK (first 3 seconds spoken):
A Navy Seal walked into a room in Fallujah, Iraq, and was immediately shot

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FULL SCRIPT:
A Navy Seal walked into a room in Fallujah, Iraq, and was immediately shot by three al-Qaeda fighters waiting inside. And what happened next is almost impossible to believe. You see, in April 2007, Senior Chief Mike Day was the first man through the door during a raid on an al-Qaeda cell. And the moment he stepped inside, all three fighters opened fire on him at point blank range with AK-47s. He was hit 27 times. 16 bullets went through his body and 11 more were stopped by his body armor, which was only designed to absorb one. and a grenade blew up 10 ft away and knocked him unconscious. But when he woke up roughly a minute later, he picked up his pistol and killed the remaining fighters himself, then directed his teammates over the radio and then walked himself to the medevac. He was awarded the Navy Cross and to this day nobody can fully explain how he survived.
