Marines' riot drill includes a flying kick at the shield line
Military Madness's older training clip is accelerating, while viewers question the narrator's claim that the exercise got out of hand.
Why this story? The video is running at 202,483 views a day, 6.1 times its usual pace (33,000).

"We just wanna talk!" calls a participant approaching a formation of Marines with riot shields. The peace overture doesn't last: he launches himself feet-first at the line, and the Marines tackle and detain him.
This is a training exercise, not footage of an actual riot. Fellow soldiers play the opposing crowd, giving the shield formation something less predictable than objects thrown on an instructor's command. Earlier, a participant's taunting even gets the Marines behind the shields laughing.
Military Madness's "These Riot Soldiers Were Ready for Anything" added about 200,000 views in a day, six times its usual daily pace. Posted in October, the Short is drawing attention alongside the newer "Different Reloads vs Speed Reload", which is also having an unusually busy day.
The riot clip's narration says the training "got out of hand fast." Several viewers push back on that framing, pointing out that an unruly opposing group is part of the exercise. Others focus on the abrupt switch from an offer of peace to a dive kick. The channel's own description makes the training premise plain: friendliness can turn into a sudden attack when fellow soldiers are playing the rioters.
