"Beware of an old man in a profession where men usually die young" -Bohdi Sanders
Wise words.
@@emperortivurnis9161 you're correct.
I like that
That's actually a very good one
who is this guy that died?
Sounds like a very humble person . He kicked ass that day .
Like any true pro.
You know if someone is the real deal 10 seconds after they open their mouth.
The people close to him have said that he's a humble, down to earth, quiet guy since day 1 of this.
RESPECT.... REAL PRO in his field AND AMAZING PERSON... Wish him a lot of good in life.
beware the quiet men
He did, what he had to do.
props to the interviewer for just letting him talk about what he felt was important
For his 4th day on the job, I think Lloyd handled it pretty damn well. To have shit like that go down out of nowhere , I mean who wouldn't be rattled a bit . These men kept their cool and prevailed. Mad respect to you both !!!!
right 4th day on the job and you're getting shot. there are soldiers that go to war and never experience that. you don't know how people will react in a death life scenario. he did a good job
4th day at job and robbery :d think what would happen if there was an inside attack
The bigger point he is making is about the further escalation to existing and already dangerous security issues in South Africa. You can tell it makes him sad, he truly loves his country. He is not interested in the spotlight. An honest guy trying to play his part. Buy this guy a beer.
yeap, real life heroes (not the movie "stars") are like that
It is quite shocking about the increasing crime rate in SA
@@youthsonamisson2937 the crime rate is not increasing it has always been high. CIT robberies have gone up in recent years though
@@nlocnil3602 oh thank God it's only high and not increasing.
The crime situation in SA is a crying shame. There must be an HONEST conversation about it instead of trying to sweep things under the rug.
An honorable man, refuses to think of himself as a hero and he spoke up in support of his partner. He sounds like he is an excellent teacher also.
Yea hes a stud.
I gave his partner a bit of flak. I thought he got nervous and wasn't able to make the call but there were f*cken phone scramblers. What else was he meant to do when they're using GTA tech on you? I feel like a schmuck.
he trains the special task force in SA police
There is no I in team..Leo gets it.An he is a fine quality of man to put the protocols & training with his experience to make their workplace a safer place to work at.
czcams.com/video/e_j5Jdhsx4A/video.html .....
when he comes late in school, the teacher apologizes for being early.
Word!
Damn🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the laugh :)
I bet he can dribble a Bowlingball
czcams.com/video/dBdCASds-0A/video.html
Leo Prinsloo and Lloyd Mtombeni , you two are my heroes for the day. Thank you both for holding it down unbelievably well.
People ask about Lloyd ,he did exactly what he was supposed to do. Followed instructions and staying calm. Leo is such a legend man!!!
czcams.com/video/IBGZba0laGg/video.html
I don't understand at all why Lloyd is getting any criticism.
He reacted like every soldier / security personell is trained to. Stay calm, stay focused and be ready at all times.
People who truly hate blacks will always find a reason to belittle/criticize one. Those who truly view the world objectively see that Lloyd did his best. In fact, considering that was Lloyd's fourth day on the job, the company just got a great look into his heart and I bet they're happy about what they see.
@@sergmont3160 hey it not about race
@@sergmont3160 not bout the race bruh
The guy is a legend,outgunned,outnumbered in cars and men and he prevailed.
He also seems very humble!
humble is best ❤
supposedly he had other partners driving behind him let's give them credit they stayed behind to battle some of them, he even went back to help the ones that stayed behind
definitely a hero though. didn't save anyone but I'm glad a fuckin criminal got theirs
Ya’ll need 5 million more of these guys.
The thing I find most surprising and troubling about this is the sophistication of the bad guys (i.e. cell phone jammers).
I knew that violent crime is endemic in South Africa, but had no idea that the criminal element could come so well equipped.
So alot of people giving his friend, sitting in the passenger seat a hard time.
It was his 4th day on the job, and he also said he never has been in a vehicle that got shot at.
I think he did pretty good. What was he supposed to do? I mean, he did what he was told to.
Personally there was 3 main things about that guy that really irritated me:-
1.) He got the long arm ready, all fine, sensible step, good trigger discipline, but how many times did he get that buttstock in the way of the driver when he's trying to make strong, fast full body wide turns with that wheel to try and keep them on the road and safe? That annoyed me. Get it ready dude but keep it the fuck out of the drivers way.
2.) Not really sure why he wasn't on the phone/radio immediately. They had no reasonable way of knowing how the situation would progress, they were in a high speed chase, taking fire and likely also had civilians around them. Start getting some contingencies worked out.
3.) I never once saw him looking behind him or re-orientating his perspective to get a better view in the mirrors. He's fucking static, he could be feeding his driver additional information, the driver is going to be in sensory overload, very tunnel visioned, working though shit as it comes, potentially missing other stuff, he has a static person next to him that could be providing for info.
@@CoffeeFiend1 also seemed to second guess himself. He seemed to reach for the charging handle more than one time without pulling it back.
@@juliankenzo I paused the video and gave that article a read, thanks for posting
@@juliankenzo That's interesting. We'll knock point 2 off then. I'll leave it up though as I have sufficient testicles to own my own misconstructions.
@@CoffeeFiend1 to your point #2 they had cellphone and radio blockers so they could not call for backup. The robbers are geared up for this.. it isn't a random gang going after a rival street gang
The first look into the side mirror, he knew something was up. I knew there was an issue down in south Africa, but damn! God bless you Leo and Lloyd!!! You are a hero! God bless from Central Ohio United States. 🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 ❤❤❤
Leo is a hero, in spite of how he down-plays his role on that day! Most true warriors are humble, quietly spoken people, just like him! His extensive training stood him in very good stead on the day. Good training is everything! Full respect to him and all of our CIT officers who put their lives on the line on a daily basis! Thank you Leo, may God bless you and keep you safe in your line of duty.
czcams.com/video/JGLCEllubpc/video.html
Respect for both Leo and Loyd. Doing a job that you know is dangerous. They both did the best they could do in this situation.
Knowing it was Loyd his 4th day on the job, that was pure calm.
Yeah, I think his partner did okay. I mean he was probably scared, like anyone would be. And it only being his 4th day on the job, I think he did a good job staying calm and getting his weapons ready. But yeah, I think anyone in his situation would be scared.
As a former US Army Paratrooper and Military Police Officer, i have had my share of high risk assignments in the field and in garrison. Everything from escorting the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to taking bank employees around base the day before payday to fill ATM machines. Never an incident, but always ready to react based on the situation. I stand in awe of the level of professionalism, intelligence, and situational awareness Mr Prinsloo demonstrated both in combat and then in after action review. I would have been honored to have a supervisor and coworker of 1/2 his level of ability and would have without hesitation taken orders from the likes of him. I wish i could shake his hand and commend him for the level of importance he places on continuing education and training. That certificate is pretty but it’s not going to tell you how to fight off an attack. You can’t teach what this man has, you can only learn it from experience and mental preparation. I used to think escort duty was an easy assignment until i did it. This professional makes it look like a drive for ice cream when in fact it is something that I could not have done on my best day in the Army without a full serving of luck and an armored car at a minimum. My hats off to both Leo and Lloyd. Loyd has a great mentor to learn from. I would be happy to have a partner that competent for sure. Stay safe gentleman and THANK YOU for stressing the TRUE importance of good and real training!
I've watched thousands of clips on CZcams from how to make wax to fatal Russian car crashes. This South African gets my vote. My vote for putting on an evasive driving clinic, for all the world to see. Better than any action movie could have done. Thanks.
Peace from L.A. California
@@tallsoldier you just check the videos here, then you magically now how to make it...Patrick by the way, is making wax a reliable bussines?
He was driving stick shift as well! Damn.
You deserve a medal Sir. Well done you saved lives of your team members. Thank you!
139 people disliked this video from their prison internet connection because Leo put them there
Oooh God, this is funny
Leftists, most likely.
They should be so fortunate. The alternative is far worse.
🤣🤣🤣🤣💦
Updated: he has now put 209 people in prison
This situation is absolutely unacceptable. these brave people need to have at least 2 more fully prepared soldiers with them.
Derick Zoolander : What is this a CIT truck for ants? How is anyone going to fit through the door? It needs to be at least 3 times this size! Mugatu : You know what guys he’s absolutely right..
The verbal version of the story is even more impressive than the footage. So grateful that you are alive!
It was a superb, professional and low-key performance where he totally mastered the situation - his companion Lloyd also stayed calm. High credit to this impressive man, especially the bit where he dismounts and goes on the offensive.
It wasn’t that Loyd did anything bad or negative in any way, to me it was just his expressions riding with a legend in a situation that you normally only see in movies! All he could do is hold on at that point. I’m a disabled veteran and have nothing but respect for both of you.
Thank you for your service and sacrifice.
Are you kidding, Loyd had no idea what to do, at one stage ,tried to give LEO the rifle , while he was driving.MY GOD , this is life and death situation. He wouldn't be my back up passenger that's for sure
I love how people are just so quick to tear somebody down online when they can hide behind their keyboard and monitor. Holy man, I’d like to see you in the passenger seat not freak out for days on the job a little training and no clue what’s going on other than the window just exploded next to the driver. Have you watched the full context video with multiple angles and Leo giving a play-by-play? You should check it out and not be such a negative nelly.
@@holyman4027 ok keyboard warrior, touch grass and put down COD
The people talking shit about Loyd. Well shit is what would be filling your drawers the moment the first round came in.
Huge respect to all involved. You Sth Africans are one tough nation.

If you listened carefully Leo stated that the robbers use Jammers to avoid cellphone functioning.
Man there are some people with no sense of humour or who are just plain dumb.
@@willemstreutgers1154 time please
Leo is now getting the recognition, respect and appreciation he deserves. He is the “unsung hero” that went viral online, which the world is now “singing” about. I hope and pray that he could setup lessons on safety and security, not just for uniformed people, also for the civilians of the world. That is, through webinars and if possible later on, through actual lessons in person. The world is a better place with people like Leo around. God Bless Him.

“These guys didn’t wake up and decide to do a robbery. They are organised, they have training. They are either current or ex police or military or security personnel. They have got contacts, they know what they are doing.” Oh wow! 🤯.
I always thought the passenger looked pretty calm..
That's south africa for you !
@@RIDGELAKE101 - what are you getting at ?
That is the situation all over the world saddly
@@RIDGELAKE101 the dude looked like he was shitting himself. The fuck are you talking about? He literally had nothing more to do until getting out of the vehicle apart from suffer a massive adrenaline rush lol.
Leo, you say you're not a hero...well that's what a real hero would say. The fact that you and Lloyd walked away unscathed is a testament to your calm and expertise in handling such situations and Lloyd's staying focused and following your orders so well. Ek sou my broek gekak het!! Eish! Respect my friend...stay as humble as you are...it is part of your charm.
czcams.com/video/JGLCEllubpc/video.html
Every video of this person just increases my respect towards him. Such a legend he was, he knew what to do and he executed it well.
Yep mad mad ! Respect to the driver👌
Like he said, real heroes are those who have to deal with that shit on a daily basis and don't go viral cause they aren't recorded.
To him its like a side job shit, but he definitely held his own
@@Flokoli1 💯
@Sergio J. You have to watch the video full he ran away with a gun and not barehand

4 days on the job and still staying calm in that situation is no small feat. Pucker factor 10 situation and they both walked away. These guys go back and do this every day. Incredible. Thanks for the detailed interview and debrief.
He is so humble. I love the part when he say Lloyd AND myself did the best we could. 🤣
My heart goes out to you guys. Every time I see CIT vehicles I pray for you, for your protection and safety.
Such a humble and beautiful soul. May God continue to protect you from the evils of this world 🙏
I feel like the more famous this guy becomes the more danger he’s in. Please be safe out there! Btw you’re a beast with that armored rover.
It’s an armoured Land Cruiser….🙏🏻🇷🇴🇬🇧👍🏻
Leo and his partner, Loyd, did everything right, they both remained calm under extreme pressure. What Leo has to say about the security industry is chilling and needs to be listened to. Nothing but respect for BOTH men.
"I happens litarelly on a daily basis." "From that accident to this day another 5 ambushes an CIT." "Another guy was killed."
Those words have to spread around the world.
People take America for granted.
ANC is fund raising for elections.
"Those words have to spread around the world"...just how is that gonna help the situation. The world is not interested, all they can do is comment
@@TipOfAfrica0010 that’s a known reality for many people already. Not just in South Africa. The whole world is getting more violent, organized crime is becoming a harder threat to deal for governments.
@@eoagr1780 , the whole world is getting more violent because governments have become weak
Deon the news stated that Leo and his family is in protective custody after they received death threats. I take it it would affect his income. As a fellow South African I know that I would want to buy him a round, to say well done and we are glad you are safe. Can you start a Go fund me so we can help support him?
Save the middleman. Just get him to start a Bitcoin wallet address :)
@@Xplicid a bit unstable
@@flymachine wait the black guy died??
@ yes he talks about the guy who died - I am not talking about the guy in this incident who was in the car with him
@@flymachine so why send all the money to the family that was unfortunate because of his situation?? That doesnt even make sense, start a separate account, just because one died and he didn't, he shouldn't receive donations....?
Leo looked so hurt when the interviewer said: 'Crime pays in South Africa'; I know it's the cold truth, but it must be very difficult to hear when you are a man who has dedicated your life to law and order.
Glossed
sure is, but what’s the more honorable path

This is how a legend is forged. Look how humble this man is. He had a life threatening experience, acted with such coolness that seems almost possible.
Only a few have this sort of skills. Long life to Leo!
Well done Leo and Lloyd. Your training kicked in and did your duty. You make a point of making this visible to the general public and now people should know. You are a humble man and you inspire us to survive. We trust and believe that you will be safe out there. Bless you
Leo you and Loyd are legends as a PPO it was superbly handled and the experience was wat saved your life
Keyboard warriors?? Everybody should respect this man a lot,and his partner.
he was just driving an armored bullet proof vehicle so let's not make it a big deal.

Same..... what a guy!!!
First portion of the interview is actually the most important! For us South Africans who stay here we know how and why we got to this point.
Be strong, brothers!
Would you explain to me how you got to this point? Has it something to do with the end of apartheid?
@@hackeronte7970 Communists and former terrorists took over the country in 1994 does that explain it to you? This means the state of the economy and every measure which is needed for law and order has been broken down and everyone has become desperate. The Constitution places such emphasis on human rights that criminals and corrupt are emboldened to commit the worst criminal acts. It’s a free for all.
@@eirevoortrekker7724 You got to be ashamed of yourself, you sound like a 2 year old kid. If they are Communists and Terrorist, I wonder what the Apartheid Government was? If Apartheid was good for you, it wasn't for everyone. I'm talking as one who benefited from that system, everthing my family and most white families in South Africa has was because of that evil system. So, don't come here with that BS.
@@eirevoortrekker7724 you are right ! Hope that global pandemy of lies will end soon
You Sir are a hero and this video will be textbook material for close protection teams around the world. Cool heads and know your systems instinctively. Stay humble and stay safe.

Leo Prinsloo is my idol, very human thanks for this.
Leo is 100% correct in everything he said. Scary situation, 1 comment that got stuck in my mind is that people in SA are desensitised to the crime. I've left SA and I now realise how dangerous it is. Glad you guys are safe and unfortunate that so many others have died in similar situations.
Dankie Leo. Meer mense soos jy is nodig.🙏🙏. My hart gaan uit vir julle gevaarlike werk. Gods rykste seen.

As I supposed, Leo is a very well trained guy.
All the best to you guys 💪🏻😎
Oh awesome! Well done Deon and Leo.

I love how nobody wants to talk about what happened when he left his car with the AR-15. "Oh thats where it ended.." Without saying how it ended.
Apparently nothing. He got out to be ready for the pursuers as the other fella phoned in but they didn't want it
Yeah like wtf
That’s exactly what I am here to find out about
He said in another video they didn't survive. So i think he's holding back details that might make him look bad

Thank you so much for this interview with Mr. Prinsloo. It was really informative and nice to meet him. May South Africa 🇿🇦 have a better future.
Really good follow-up video. This is reality, not a video game, not a Hollywood movie. They had more powerful cars, more heavily armed, more of them. It could have gone a lot worse, but I think you spooked them by going on the offensive rather than just sit in the kill zone, they knew something was not right... that they were dealing with someone unusual.
Welcome to South Africa. I can guarantee you that few of those bad guys are closely working with police officers. Here you can get killed or stubbed over a smart phone

@@_trust9994 Why is the crime so horrible in South Africa🇿🇦? It looks like a modern place from what I saw on the dash cam. I’m American. Can’t you elect leaders, local and federal, who will take action on these issues? How are active police getting away with moonlighting as armed robbers?
Let's hope all security and CIT companies sees this and take Leo Prinsloo's ideas and recommendations seriously and implement it. He has experience and knows what he's talking about.
I hope they fucking promoted him and gave him a massive bonus after that. Guy deserves to sit back and chill for the rest of his life.
Judging by his words, I think he is getting to work early every day because he loves to splat bad guys. His job is the reward. Bad guy goes splat; Leo goes😁.
Godspeed to all in South africa. CIT in our prayers.
Leo and Lloyd are amazing! With Leo's driving skills and Lloyds calm demeanor, they are a power team!
Lloyd wasn't calm, if it was me I would've shitted myself for this to happening 4 days into the job
When things go south... Leo says "KOM JOU KONT". So much respect for this man and all the brave men in CIT. These men deserve a raise.
Respect to this guy, so wise and humble.
I feel like Lloyd did an awesome job given the circumstances. He is a newcomer, no where as trained as Leo and remained calm, let Leo focus and took order and direction immediately. If Leo is defending his actions than he obv acted correctly. Hindsight is 2020, and is a luxury not given in the immediate situation.
Right? It was his 4th day on the job. I'd say he did just fine. If Lloyd was white he wouldn't be getting nearly as much flak.

Ultimate respect, such a humble guy and uses this experience as an opportunity to advocate for better training and conditions within this highly dangerous industry. Security companies in SA take note!
Leo & Lloyd, I tip my hat to you both. I'm glad you mentioned the point of action movie heroes vs the real world.
The questions not asked in the interview:
What happened after he got out of the truck with the gun??? Where did the robbers go???
Search it yourself
He literally turned the tables:
Once we got to the hotel carpark where the chase ended, I hoped to push the Audi through the spiked barriers and puncture his tires so that they couldn’t get away. I spun him sideways, and he ended up on the concrete sidewalk. Our truck also got stuck on the concrete barriers. The driver of the car jumped out and ran, which is when I jumped out with my rifle. I made the decision that he wasn’t a shootable target in that public place. He ran across the street and got away, to my great frustration. The two criminal vehicles involved had offloaded their six passengers on the highway, AK-47s in hand, grabbing lifts and escaping. Once the Audi driver had fled, the next thing that I wanted to do was to get back there and chase them down. I wasn’t able to, which burnt me up.

So humble.. I salute you, Leo. Just maybe we can still save our land from this chaos!
Brialliant soldier, and a humble man, well done, stand up human being
So glad you and Lloyd are safe. My father was a U.S. Marine, my brother a police officer, and my husband worked in security. You never know when a situation like this will happen. Even those with extensive training can be overwhelmed in an instant, but it's that training, to the point where it's mindless, instinctive, that can keep you alive. I'm glad you and Lloyd got to go home to your loved ones at the end of the day.
Great leader... humble despite all the attention!! Leo Prinsloo's exceptional driving skills truly impressed!! I counted at least 16 vital manoeuvres, executed with skill and care, under severe stress, that he made to ensure their safety and the safety of the cargo. What a cool head!! Well done, Leo and Lloyd 💯
Thank you for bringing awareness to this. No one should go to work risking their lives on a daily basis.
They both did great, especially given all the information and how much the odds were stacked against then!
I think the astounding job that Leo did is proof that training is so important.
Those thieves were so well equipped and trained, I REALLY hope the companies take note of what Leo was saying and try to at least even the playing field a bit more, he clearly knows what he is talking about!
Clearly a legend as can be seen by the footage.
But a more humble man you'll never meet.
A good role model for the kids.
May the Angels fly alongside you for many many years yet brother.
Excellent interview from Mr. Coetzee and Prinsloo. Thanks for sharing. Competence always beats certificates. Stay safe out there!
This man is a brilliant teacher, who is passionate and caring incredibly honest what asset to the SA Security Industry, wish he was teaching here in ND. Much Respect Leo.
I look at a certificate as the start, an entry level qualification. Train, train some more. Sweat saves blood. You will never finish training, never finish evolving. In ANY line of work.
I really appreciate Leo supporting Lloyd. They both did fine in my opinion. They kept their heads and soldiered on.
as i see it dosnt matters how much you train when you find yourself in a situation when your life is on the line for fisrt time you probably will be craping your pants is normal. the difference is that when you have crapped your pants a couple of times you learn to at least keep the shit in your ass.
the certificate means you're allowed to start training, not that you're ready to go out there
A real eye-opener to the security we may take for granted and the atmospheres other countries are living in. This guy is a beast, props to the support passenger for keeping cool on his fourth day, Legend material...

I have nothing but respect for you Mr Leo and Lloyd
Im so glad to see there are more humble people in our industry. Never brag about a fight that was not yours but God's. His grace is the only thing that keeps us alive. And from our side we must train. Thanks for being so humble, we salute you.
Amazing what he pulled off. Some one give this man a reward.
This guy is the star of the internet now. Not long from now Hollywood will make a movie on this story. And Jason Statham will play the role as Leo Prinsloo.
hahahah correct i thought the same thing xD
I put me money on Liam Neeson 😅
i mean its cool but a movie..cmon now
Naw we need him to play as himself, would be way cooler than an A list celebrity playing him , it's so over saturated.
Is that reference to wrath of man? 😂
Wow thank you for sharing the story of what happened! Please try to stay safe out there!!
I almost cried on "A Kom-Jou-Kont Production" )) well done lads! And thanks for sharing other videos! I didn't realise Leo was ramming that Audi.
Me too; bloody marvellous.
Only South Africans will appreciate the motivation behind the name 👍
Me too. I only realised it now listening to him explaining what happened.
What does the name mean?

It is on the cup too. I'm Dutch and I guess it means something like: come for your ass
Leo are humble because he knows all to well that bragging doesn't mean anything out there.
I never get tired of their accent..
thank you hahah...i am also Afrikaans (Durban), not many people find our accent to be nice
I think at the very least you should be supplied with a bigger heavier (armoured) truck .less likely to be knocked off course and more likely to do damage when you ram those animals
It’s better than that Australian mumble that they speak

Mr. Prinsloo you're fearless, what a great trait to have. Respect!
