Incredibly candid footage recorded by the Iraqi Special Forces in Mosul captures the moments an innocent vlog turns into a large scale firefight with the Islamic State.

War is a universal language. Every Soldier from every country speaks it. In every unit, you have these incredibly candid moments where the guys are just sitting around relaxing in between gun fights. Sometimes the Soldiers play music with instruments they've found on the battlefield, other times they sit around and smoke cigarettes while they discuss the finer topics in life, like "Do Aliens exist?" or "This one time I saw a ghost." Those moments, while more common than you might expect, also frequently end just like this video does. In a massive firefight with the enemy.
