      youve earned a sub been watching a lot of your videos recently, Its nice too see your take and views on some of the points, like you say alot of people will just see the shouting and swearing and not take anything from it. At the end of the video you was correct, He posed as a recruit to get extra information and too keep a close eye on them. You should really watch the series, its awesome!

They show how not only are these experts very tough as they need to be, but also that despite the toughness they are actually very kind and helpful. If you have had personal problems, situations in the past that have upset you then they will listen to them and try to help you out and encourage you that you are strong.

    This statement could not be more true. My good friend spent a lot of time outside the wire in Afghanistan, and a few other deployments. He's now retired, but even now he still feels the need to do presence patrol's in his neighborhood before he goes to bed at night. It's just hard wired into him to always pay attention to his surroundings.

      Yeah a great shame - he was sacrificed to the false "gods" of the politically correct wankers that infest all of our mainstream media. That is why after a fat seagull perched on my outdoor TV Ariel and collapsed it in the Summer of 2016 - I refused to have it put right even when a builder friend of mine offered to replace the rusty fittings refix it. It wasn't a hard decision in fact at that stage I was watching very little TV anyway and the news programs not at all as they were far too transparently biased for me to take them seriously. In fact I did watch RT from time to time because ironically I found it far less biased than our own BBC!!

      True that mate - it does set you up for the rest of your life, but sadly doesn't prepare you for the moment you have to become a civvie. I've been out exactly four years and two months. After 27 years of service, I find civvie life to be distracting, unstructured and disorganised. Trying to adjust has proven to be quite a challange.

      @@phantomwalker8251 it’s not all of the us, it’s a generational problem. These so-called millennials are some of the worst Ive ever seen. They’re a bunch of self entitled pussies. I have 4 kids, two of my own and two step kids, and I raised them all the way I was raised and be damned if I was ever going to allow them to act like a bunch of self entitled pricks I see in the news and walking the streets. One of those kids, my youngest step son (19), Is a little asshole though and his dads family spoils the shit out of him and his dad is a POS drug addict alcoholic women beater and has told his son he doesn’t have to listen to me or do as I say in my own house, so he and I have some serious issues with each other. Needless to say, he doesn’t live in this house anymore. Now I have one, my oldest step son (22), that’s in college and about to join the fire academy, he said he wants options in his life. I have another, my actual son (20), who is currently and MP/dog handler in the USMC and says he is making a career of it so he can retire at 38-40 and then either become a SWAT member when he gets out or private security. Lastly, my daughter (17), is about to graduate HS, is in the top-5 of her class, has been taking dual credit classes her entire high school career, is already enrolled in college and is planning to become an OBGYN Nurse Practitioner and something else which I can’t recall. So I think Ive done a damn good job as a father, 3 out of 4 ain’t bad, and I know they will be a positive force and influence in society.

      Also,I've noticed that Ant has a certain kind of look in his eyes.
      There's a war movie called 12 Strong starring Chris Hemsworth from The Avengers movies and the Thor movies and it's based on a true story.And in the movie,there's a great scene where Afghan warlord General Abdul Rasheed Dostum talks about warriors who have the ''killer eyes''. Ant's definitely got the killer eyes,just as former U.S. Navy SEAL Jocko Willink and many others who were in the military have the ''killer eyes''.

      @@JR-ju3kj I started reading his book "The Fear Bubble". In the opening chapter, Ant is talking about a meeting he had with a guy in one of London's numerous wealthy private members clubs. He mentions that during the meeting his mind started to wander and he began to fantasise about how he would react if a bunch of terrorists/armed men stormed the building. He picked out items to be used as weapons, where he would take cover, and even thought about the damage the heavy glass ashtray would do to the face of the man he was actually having the meeting with. An interesting insight. Men like him from their experience, can "switch on" at a split second's notice.

They are not there to drive you on, it's all up to you whereas with the Para selection, the DS push you and try to get the best out of you. This series seems more in line with Para selection than SAS.

My last four relationships have been with men who don't mind getting hands on with a woman (and men), most have been that way their whole life, they won't change. They didnt do 4 months jail for what they did (yes should have called police, but its never as simple as that). Ant has changed, and overcame his demons and succeeded. Look at him now.

    Really enjoy watching you react to the UK military. I'm from Manchester, UK and served in ok telic 2 Iraq 2003. SAS who dares wins is a great reality tv show. You should read the 4 autobiographies the instructors wrote. The older one out of the lot (BILLY BILLINGHAM) Is the real deal. 17 years old straight into the parachute regiment then onto the SAS..he's a beast and has been knighted by the queen. His book is unreal. Thanks for the content..really enjoyed all your videos.

      Mark “Billy" Billingham spent 27 years in the military, 17 of those in the SAS. He rose to the rank of Warrant Officer Class 1 (Sergeant Major) the highest rank for a soldier. Some of his time in the SAS was as an instructor and DS on selection.
      You're right, he is a beast. He was never knighted though, otherwise he would be “Sir Mark Billingham." He received an MBE from the Queen, not a knighthood.
