You probably know that Don Shipley helped Dan Noyes bust Michael Fortner. This one has been in the works for a few months because Don sent us the video of Fortner for our entertainment a while back, but I kept it from you. So, here’s Fortner’s lyin’ ass telling a group about his phony SEAL experiences – digging bullets out of his back with a knife, killing teenagers, blah, blah, blah.
Fortner has been telling these lies since he was in his twenties, so Don isn’t picking on a seventy-year-old, he’s busting a twenty-year-old who told lies for decades. I only wonder what else is going to come out about him now.
The production values of this 21-minute video are through the roof (whatever that means).

Another Sierra Hotel performance from The Hair and the lady who keeps The Hair in his place. BRAVO!
Love Lady Di and the gifts from her Mom. Love the auction. Only made it to 5:30 b/c I couldn’t listen to and look at that lying
sack of shit any longer. So, I’ll take this one in bites.
Well said. I can’t improve on that.
Ditto.
The editing was genius. This one is so utterly cringeworthy it would be unbearable if not for the fun stuff in between.
Thank God we only had to see a supposed grenade scar on his left leg. Can you imagine what we would have had to look at if he had claimed to have been one of Earl Littman’s “Secret Combat Naked Warriors”? If I look like that 10 years from now when I turn 73, I want somebody to come and do the Old Yeller routine to me.
Claw……you have no worries. It’s a proven fact that Ham and MFers combined with Fresca is a proven youth agent! Smile
So that’s why I haven’t had to use any Viagra yet. Who’da thunk it?
Starts a jump from 6 miles up? Isn’t that up there where them there passenger jets roam?
Dives to 370 feet? Burned out reactor? And the sub was at 12,000 feet?
Geez, guys, if you’re going to tell tall tales, don’t do it like this. Make it more along the lines of that first class who had a date and the raggedy old chief who had a broken reefer and wanted it fixed.
“Aw, come on, chief, I’ve got some hot meat waiting for me.”
“Yeah? Well, so have I. Now get your ass down here and fix this thing.”
In fairness to the real SEALs and their cousins in other branches, it’s not unheard of for SOF units to make jumps that high. They’re called HALO/HAHO (High Altitude Low Opening/High Altitude High Opening) jumps: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-altitude_military_parachuting.
As for the rest, though—in agreement. One hundred percent pure, transparent bullcrap. It bolsters my faith in humanity that this joker was able to get away with this for fifty straight years without even really trying or researching.
Oh, I know about HALO jumps, HSJunior, but there are certain things, very specific things, that go with that kind of jump, which he did not bring up.
And since the events of the Cuban missile crisis and the Bay of Pigs invasion all began offshore and with aerial recon aircraft, not with any kind of jumps, period (especially from that height), I found that part to be ludicrous.
In that video of him, he mumbled so much that it was difficult to understand, but his idiotic story about a disabled nuke sub was insulting to the crews that lost their lives in the
Scorpion and Thresher disasters.
I can’t believe anyone can be that disgustingly arrogant and think it’s okay. That old gas bag should have been horsewhipped and made to do penance decades ago.
Agreed. This ain’t a case of an old guy who (it is implied) is of feeble mind who maybe made a mistake; this is a guy who’s been rocking a lie for fifty years.
Fuck him.

HAYWARD, Calif. (KGO) —
For more than 50 years, a church leader from Hayward has been keeping a secret from his own wife and children, his friends, and members of his congregation. After an ABC7 News I-Team investigation, he has been forced to make a public confession and step down from his church position. …
“keeping a secret”?!
Not quite the same as lying over and over again for years.
With stupid ass shows like “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” and others being cancelled, why doesn’t TLC pick this show up? I’d watch it.
I believe its been discussed with the networks. Their lawyers won’t touch it with a ten foot pole, unfortunately. So, we just have to be content with the youtube videos.
I think I would have just lost my shit right about the point he’s talking about the dive down to the sub and call his worthless lying ass out.
Senior Chief, you’ve outdone yourself. When you get Bollywood going on in your videos, you know you’ve stepped your shit up to a serious level.
Mrs Shipley needs a TV contract!!
Excerpted from the ABC7 news article:
FORTNER: “I am what they call top secret.”
NOYES: “You’re top secret?”
FORTNER: “Yeah.”
The last refuge of the poser is always that he’s Super Duper Secret Squarrel, right out of chapter 2 of The Poser Playbook…
Just PATHETIC…
The rest of the video is fantastic, but..
Damn, that Indian song is catchy. I don’t know why, but it just is. I wonder if I can find it with a Google search.
Keep up the fire, Senior Chief!
Found it.

Yeah, well, my wife found this on YouTube and it’s quite hilarious:

This song is quite popular in certain circles, apparently.
I see a Judge Judy episode in their futures when the Bromance ends and they fight over who should get the security deposit back from the apartment.
Yeah, I kinda was thinking along the same lines.
The best part about Judge Judy is when she tells the litigants “You don’t get compensated in my court for being stupid”. Cracks me up every time.
I have nothing to say.
You’ve shocked me to my core, Mustang.
Wow. Senior Chief got promoted. “God began to talk to me.” Promoted to God. THAT’s way up there. I wonder what Mrs. Shipley thinks of that?
(I knew a Shipley girl when I was young, from FL. I know she had a brother Tommy. I wonder if she had a brother Don?)
“Interesting thing about this is” you’re full of it.
