Joe Rogan’s interviews are synonymous with lasting well over three hours until every nook and cranny is revealed or until he asks his guests if they have ever eaten elk meat while drinking psilocybin mushrooms. However, a recent Joe Rogan Experience The interview ended abruptly, which made fans scratch their heads and ask why.
Former Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell, whose incredible story was the inspiration for Single survivor, Appeared on Joe Rogan’s experience. Luttrell was (SPOILER ALERT) the only survivor of OperationsRed Wings in Afghanistan, a mission in 2005 in which the SEAL 10 team was assigned to neutralize a high-ranking Taliban leader. However, the Navy SEALs fought a bloody battle with Taliban fighters on the side of a mountain that lasted for hours. Miraculously, Luttrell survived the shooting that left his fellow SEALs dead and was rescued when he was near the end of his rope.
In the interview, Luttrell fights back tears as he relives the personal hell he experienced and the kindness of an Afghan tribe that allowed him to live for six days until he was rescued by the U.S. military.
Despite suffering serious injuries in the battle in Afghanistan, Luttrell volunteered for another military trip before being clinically retired.

Luttrell wrote the book Single survivor detailing its unbelievable story, which was turned into a Hollywood film with actor Mark Wahlberg. During his recent interview with Joe Rogan, Luttrell revealed that he had not seen the entire film based on his near-death experience in the Middle East.
Rogan asked Navy SEAL, “What is it like to have a film about one of the worst experiences of your life?”
“It is an honor to be a part of this,” Luttrell replied. “Dude, it’s about me getting beaten up. As a fighter and a warrior, these are usually the stories you don’t want to see. ”
“I didn’t see that,” said the war hero about Single survivor, the film about the most critical moment of his life, then joked: “I never watched until the end, I know the director’s version”.

“I’m glad you said, ‘Let’s start with whiskey,'” Rogan told Luttrell. “As soon as you said that, I thought, ‘This is going to be great.'”
“I only drink whiskey with my friends, and the only reason we say that is because the things that come out when you drink whiskey,” said Luttrell. “So, I’m looking forward to it, we’ve been friends for a while, I thought, ‘We should have fun with this.’”
Apparently, Luttrell drank a little too much whiskey during the interview.
Later in the interview, Luttrell had to use the bathroom, which happens to most of the guests during Rogan’s interview marathon. However, Luttrell never came back. JRE fans were curious as to why the interview ended so abruptly.
Rogan explained what happened to the end of Luttrell’s interview.
“A real honor and a hell of a good time to share a podcast with a great man and a true hero,” wrote Rogan in an Instagram post. “We could all use someone like @marcusluttrell in our lives.”
“You know you’re a terrible master when @markwahlberg plays you in a movie,” added the UFC commentator. “If you don’t know who Marcus is, he is the real-life SEAL that was the subject of the incredible film Single survivor. “
“We talked a lot about shit and drank a lot of whiskey,” explained Rogan. “For people who are wondering why the podcast was stopped abruptly after Marcus went to pee, we decided that maybe he consumed a little too much to keep talking and, in retrospect, I think it was the right decision. Hahahaha! We’ll do it again, I’m sure. I really liked it, and I hope you like it too. “
