Image concern

Transferred from File talk:United States Navy SEALs 232.jpg (en.wp talkpage of an image actually on commons):

Umm which one of these guys is supposed to be David Goggins?... lol — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.55.51.151 (talk) 06:26, 19 July 2018‎ (UTC)[reply]

That's a good question! Added in this edit by User:Kaleodu who is currently blocked for adding incorrect information to some other article(s). I don't see anything at the current SEAL image gallery indicating that either of them is. I'm removing the picture from the article. DMacks (talk) 06:38, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Awards/decoration removed?

Reason given as Unsourced. The awards and decorations are clearly visible on his uniform on the cover of Can't Hurt Me

We should add that he never finished the Moab 240, came back the other to be sure to have youtube videos so he can market about it — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.72.159.64 (talk) 19:16, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Toughest man???

Yeah sure, I believe that too but It cannot be mentioned in the article, that would be considered promotion and stuff Gabriel A. Álvarez N. (talk) 04:05, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Footnote 7 is lacking evidence

Tagged as having earned the VFW Americanism award, which is true, but the evidence cited completely fails to even mention it. Also, saying that this award is one of the most prestigious a person can earn for service feels highly biased. How about the Medal of Honor? Silver star? Distinguished service? Legion of merit? Let's keep it as objective as we can. JackSitilides (talk) 01:08, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

His height ain't correct

In his latest Instagram post, there's a lot of information, such as his correct height... 62.80.225.141 (talk) 07:20, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Joe Rogan

Yes, lets just take what he says as valid information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.157.112.44 (talk) 22:06, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relevancy

His sports career seems much more relevant (encyclopedia-level-y speaking) than being an ex-SEAL or a motivational speaker, and that should probably be mentionned first. Domnminickt (talk) 22:33, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
