Over half these guys hadn't really "made it" yet when Black Hawk Down came out or were on the cusp. I swear that every time I watch Black Hawk Down a new actor jumps out at me that I go "Holy shit, I didn't know they were in this movie!"

Imagine what that movie would cost if made today with those names!

He's one of the first to die. He has a longish scene when they're back at the base. I did a double take too

The people were based off of real people in black hawk down, so did you want them to change their races to be politically correct?
