5. That's true...
There were two big breaks for them that made this one so quick for them. The first is that the helicopter malfunction wasn't serious enough to cause a crash or any injuries. The second is that Bin Laden was extremely arrogant. Only a handful of people in the entire house? Really? We sent 24 SEALs in there and he only had a few guys in there protecting him, none of which were skilled enough to win a gunfight with a SEAL. I wonder what the CIA and SEALs prepared for, 100 guards perhaps? They were probably shocked to see how small Bin Laden's security force was.
