Part 8: Robert O'Neill on Shooting Bin Laden, Says Fellow SEAL Mark Owen Lying & Never Shot Him
Part 1: Robert O'Neill on Becoming a Navy SEAL, Protecting Albania President
--------
Former Navy SEAL Robert O'Neill recounted the graphic and complex events following the killing of Osama bin Laden in 2011. O'Neill, who famously fired the shots that took down the terrorist leader, shared a particularly grisly detail about holding bin Laden's head together for a photograph after it had been severely damaged. This disturbing task was essential for confirming the identity of the most wanted man in the world. The operation aimed for a 32-minute ground time, but was extended to 47 minutes due to the unexpected volume of intelligence gathered, including hard drives that revealed bin Laden was directing Al-Qaeda operations from his hideout. The team also discovered contraband materials, which O'Neill speculated might have funded Al-Qaeda's activities. Additionally, the mission uncovered surprising items, which O'Neill suggests might have been encrypted with hidden communications.
