I remember the pain like it was yesterday (2005) The endurance course wasn’t the hardest for me, I felt really good that summer morning, and came in unexpectedly fast, but I remember stopping by the bridge to put my ‘cap comforter’ on, and a second later my troop commander was screaming at me for wasting a good time. I’d say the proudest moment was after the 9 mile speed March. The 22 of us that were left (initial intake of 60) marched into camp with a lone snare drummer rolling out a very rousing beat, and the whole camp coming out to applaud us into camp. I felt like I could spit bullets and sh*t grenades. Shortly after I was drafted to my first unit ... where I was promptly reminded how I was back on the bottom rung of the ladder .... and that the real training was just beginning. To all my brothers loved, and many lost, PMPT.
@screaming skull your mums is massive yes.
Funniest thing I've ever seen Phil campion do. As soon as they set that pace , his face changed to , why did I agree to this . Brilliant
Definitely wanted to go on the biff
I thought the same thing ! "We're gonna do wott ?|...lol. He'd still kick my arse though !
Not built for speed anymore, but you know he'd go all day without complaining
@@karateandy76 All day in the boozer!
Big fella now, he would've been a fearsome sight back in his prime. Respect to all who competed selection. Served with some lads who made it.
Excellent video, during WW2 my Late Grandfather was one of the first British Army Commandos he was in First Special Service Brigade Commandos later they became 1 Commando they trained in the famous Scottish Commandos training school of Achnacarry Castle . He died when I was 17 years old in 1985 RIP Granddad
Wow an inspirational granddad
@Steve A Are you joking 😂😂😂
@Steve A have you completed RMC training and completed FFL training to make such a comparason??
Armchair warrior or what
Iv got family both in the RMC and ex FFL and being ex british army SFSG i can tell your a little walt crying away because you have nothing to show in life
If RMC training was that easy are you part of the 0.01% that has completed training at CTCL ??
@Steve A obvisouly you know nothing
How can you compare 8 weeks of training to 32 weeks of training
You really are a special little person
Makes me laugh
Iv shown your comment to the lads and we all think the same
Typical civvie wannabe
How sad
@Steve A the British trained your 2 best units.........1ST marine infantry paratrooper regiment AKA " THE FRENCH SAS " French navy commandos who still wear a green beret in the style of a ROYAL MARINE COMMANDOS because of history together.....sounds like you know jack shit about your military!!!
I’m 60 and you lot are making me want to have a go. I’ll never pass the course but you’re making me want to try. What an inspiring bunch of lads👌
Try the Fan Dance if you haven't already - that's a good test
@@andrewjanssen762 Thanks for the tip. I just it looked up🖖
You be a good training tool for the Combat medic
If you are in shape it's nothing you cannot do
@@Niallisticalthe army doesn’t allow people after the age of like 30. After like 30, you’re not in your prime anymore
Loved that,all 3 of you are very inspirational to so many people,you’re totally correct in that we have to fail to win in whatever we do in life.
You will never fail until you stop.
👍👊
Never been in the Army, but I was in the Scouts. Still learned how to survive,from an early age, and have been doing it ever since.
Hats off to all the men that served our country.
They are men amongst men and have my total respect.👍🏾🇬🇧
Iv watched this a few times now and it makes me smile from start to finish.Maranda nice chick great sense of humour + bear = epic trip so cool to watch
Brings back memories of joining Raleigh in 88...obviously not physically and mentally as hard but just as proud to have those good times in the memory bank.
That was a great watch with some fantastic banter. I've worked alongside the Royal Marines whilst serving in the military and in civvy Street. And you have the upmost respect for them. And to just hear the final tests they go through to achieve the green beret is a true testament on the character that is produced at the end of the course. If your in your late teens or early 20's go for it. It will be the best decision you ever make... Dig deep and keep moving forward to the next stage.
Worst advice ever.. fight wars for Jewish bankers and die great advice mate.
Before I took the Queen’s shillings, I trained and ran like Forest Gump before training, I must say I enjoyed every minute back in 1975, these days I remember those that have passed, and would do it all again. Respect to you serving..
My dad was in the royal marine commandos years ago he done mortars and anti tanks we were in Tehran between 1977-1979 he was the adviser to the imperial shah

It's so great to see three amazing human beings, who epitomise the very best of what it means to serve, talking about their shared experiences. And take it from me, as someone who has had to live with a lifetime of regrets, that its not the mistakes you've made or the things you've done wrong that you regret the most, but the things you didn't do or try to do.
Rewatching Bears show Escape to The Legion glad to see him doing this show.
Loved this especially the old photos. Military training is full of such good times even if perhaps at the time you don’t really appreciate it.
Great video. Grandsons joining up in November. He is a physical lad and given the lack of opportunities out here in civvy street we're glad he has chosen to join the Army. Phil seem s to have become a bit of celebrity but that's ok as he comes across as being down to earth and I am sure he won't become a Diva. Stay safe lads.
I knew someone who came from beyond nothing, to achieve so much in life that an average person could only dream of. Started the moment he entered behind enemy lines in WW2 as a commando on a secret SOE mission. Decades later he was treated like royalty by young Royal Marines and it meant the world to him, they were his little brothers. He was a RMC until the very end.
Come on you two keep the step lol. That was funny seeing Bear trying change step to get in sync, whilst big Phil was in his own step for a bit. I like that no matter how long your out, you still try go keep step in a military establishmen. When I visited my best mucker who was finishing his 22 as W01 Regt Marine Engineer. We're walking across the car park in the Reme Wkshps. Im still trying to keep step. Once a soldier always a soldier.
I loved trying out for 63 Sigs Sqn TA. Unfortunately I broke my back doing a charity parachute jump on a weekend off from pre selection build up course. Went on course with broken back. Didn't know at the time. After yrs of struggle I finally got 5 ops, and diagnosis after a 22yrs (part of an ongoing 28yr battle). Wrote letter to the OC of 63 Sqn, but all changed since my time, and were with 18 Sigs Regt. I got reply from Adjutant who said it was a miracle I got as far as I did. For yrs I felt guilty letting them down, as I had served as a Jnr Ldr Royal Artillery in 88, then 3 yrs as a regular in RCT Maritime 90 to 93. So know how much it meant. To get a great reply from the Adjutant saying I did my best, and no one can say nothing about that. Hold you head high.
Still means a lot. I served with some great mentors, and love the military. You guys are a different level, and total respect.
63 Signals. The best!👍
Also a big factor of passing or failing is how you personally adapt to weather conditions, I have friends who say if they’d have had to do final assessments in summer, they’d have failed and vice versa.. we are all built differently and adapt differently, hence you get bods who thrive in jungle warfare, and others who thrive at arctic warfare.. But as long as you Turn up, see what you can do, and if you fail, try again when it’s right for you, or move on to something else.. And unless you have an injury, just never stop trying, it’s all in the mindset! 💪😎
Great to watch and inspiring, my biggest regret was not joining the forces when I was younger! Whist watching this I thought a young Phil would have done that course pushing the Land Rover the Phil now probably thinking give us a push mate lol But total respect to him and the other men who served,for without them we wouldn’t be the safe country we are now.
Commandos were the best and most painful days of my life. Worth every single second, oh Heartbreak lane brings back memories.
7:57 “we’d better get in step”
Phil: 😳😳😳
Very inspirational honestly
I was knackered just watching this!🥺
Ahhhh remember it well ingrained in my memory till I die.....last 500 metres wore respirators on the 9 miler.....
Such lovely guys our training team....
So great to hear their memories of their early days at the camp.. They seem to me like school boys 😊😊
Motivating anything in life. Survival is key here.
Thanks for the content!
What people neeed to remember is that you don’t need to be the finished article at any recruit training place. Have a good standard of core, strength and cardio and they will bring you on!
“You only regret the things you didn’t do” great piece of advice.
Go for it!
I met Phil at Birmingham about 4 years ago very humble guy but you can tell he is the real deal
Thankyou for making my childhood awsome
Enjoyed watching that ,No one usually mentions that before the Endurance coarse you have to make your way up the 4 miles in full kit in less than 1 hour before you even start the test ,then the 2miles around the course and a 4 mile timed run back in full kit finishing with 10 rounds into a target on the range with the kit you,ve had on in the tunnels ect. So we,ll done Chris for saying that . Also no one ever mentions the battle swimming test my own personal weakness on the coarse ,with kit on and webbing with bricks in and weapon wieghing you down. Good luck all who try
Not true now, they get bused up in a 4 tonner…
Big Phil , trying to find those lost days , been there myself ....
Great video, thanks Bear.
you are Always Loved by everyone sir
Living LEGEND ❤️
Just read Big Phils two books on holiday wow what a guy true grit and determination.
Respect to all these lads all the best to Phil for getting stuck in sure this gave you a kick up the bum to work on your fitness
Awesome. Loved it
Everything so good
You guys are so right. When I was 16, I wanted to give it a go. I didn't. Now I'm 49, way past it (but actually very fit still). I often regret not doing. So true: you only regret what you DONT do. If you're young, watching this, do it! Amazing job and the best fighting force in the world.
Great work guys 💪
The military is a great building block for a solid foundation in young people. Gives them resilience and to be able to handle difficult situations in future life.
Wow, what a great mantra, don’t walk around stuff, do it properly. Makes complete sense and I agree totally.
Great video big respect to all who serve our country best in the world
wow your amazing sir 30 miles f me great pictures bear great memories we need more people liker this running our country whats left of it great guys great people you have made us proud
Excellent video thanks guys ❤😂😂😊
Brilliant, phil is some character
Brilliant stuff 👏.🇬🇧👍.
Big fan
Poole home of the scouts and also RM Poole home of the badged boys. The portraits on heart break lane were painted by a bootneck in the late 60 early 70s, just think how many have gone underneath them.
Nice to see big Phil again, keep up the good work lad 👦
Big fan of u sir
Love to see phill on SAS who dares wins. Could take over from ant, as he is leaving... he may struggle backwards falling from chopper 😆
May have to wheel him around the hills also.
😂
I wouldn't think so. Big Phil is still as fit as a butchers dog 🐕.
During this short video I just re-lived my entire P-coy…… 😁🇬🇧….. wouldn’t of passed it without our PTI … cheers cpl stead
Big fan sir
Love these boys
I went through training in 94, loved it! it was brutal though.
I'm Vietnamese, I love watching your videos, you're really amazing
I bet Phil is thanking, "Don't talk to me during this Yomp"🤣
Lots of respect for Phil though, ex SAS, Commando and Para. I'm only one of them he's done all of them, so I know. If ya know, you know
Ant Middleton too. he was 9 Para, Then Royal Marine then SBS
Yep. he struggled on this stroll. But respect to him, he had to dig deeper than the other two.
@@holdfast7657 yea, totally agree. Many a folke wouldn't even bother to do that.!? So, proof is in the pudding.
Hoofing effort!
And to top it all off, he's got the larg Kahoonies, to pull that haircut off. He'll Cabby anything.
With your surname PD you must be a Para. 😁
@@JammyDodger45 🤣
Brilliant video 👍🪖😃
So cool.
Geart video thank you👍🙏
Well done Scott,nice to see you can still do it cuz👍
Ooooh that bloody tree! What memories. (January to July 1978, 112 Troop RM. )
Thanks for you humanty sir
You are very capable sir!!🙏🏻
Being a commando is not a joke. These are strong men.
Great video
Great person 👍🔥
Gratitude sir,
Honestly sir , I never skipped to watch your programs in discovery channel and requesting you to give me a valuable advice me.I am a first year student of University.
HUGE FAN!
Cracking comment about doing the tests after 10 day exercise. Most people don’t realise that’s how it was. 1990 Hardest fortnight of my life. But worth it at the end.
Great funny honest feedback
Well done Phil! You earned that brew...
He is finally here !
I remember Cpl Heffield! He was our troop PTI (671 Trp 1994) and on Saturday mornings after a good Friday night out, looking bleary eyed, he'd ask us "you've got a choice today fellas - troop run or unarmed combat in the dojo?" Knowing full well what we would pick. Legend.
So is that it then having a little chat and walk through the park? Don’t seem to difficult!
Good one
The only real failure is giving up. Awesome words Mr Grylls
Well done lads..
Phill wearing them combats lol legend
I wanted to join the tank regiment when I was 16, I went through the recruitment process but as I was young I didn't end up joining in the end definitely one of my biggest life regrets but enjoyed going through the recruitment stage and just about got accepted on the fitness side and was offered a position to join but got a girlfriend and got caught up with that and changed direction, the sergeant major at the recruitment office was a really decent guy he sent me to the tank regiment he arranged all the transport for me I got to see so much it was awesome, after that I went for recruitment as memory serves was 3 days recruitment stayed in barracks with something like 20 guys, there where some written tests and if I remember rightly we had a little bit of classroom stuff teaching us about the mechanics of the tanks like the gearbox and how complicated it is, after that it was pure fitness tests and team tests mile and a half in under 13 minutes something like that I remember it well was he'll for me I was a bit chubby and struggled I was in the bottom 3 out of us all the pt instructors with their white t shirts on pushed us do hard and an old land rover defender right up our backside the entire time as we where the slowest we kind of helped each other out so we all got to the end in time was hard but the pt instructors changed the tone towards the end and really pushed us but not in a back way shouting "coming you can do this nearly there" sort of thing but those guys where super fit, straight after the run you went straight into a gym type building and they made you do the ammo box filled with sand and hold it out for I think over a certain amount of minutes the clock was ticking I did it just as soon as I was able to drop that case I did and oh dear what a mistake I got drilled so hard by the instructor for dropping his case down hard and damging it 😆, then straight onto the lifting pull from the floor I fucked that up didn't have clue how it worked I held on to the bar and took a bit of weight out of it so slightly pulling up then moved down to do the lift next minute the instructor said "that's it your done next person" I was like hang on I haven't pulled up yet it didn't matter though they didn't care I had to move on immediately 😀 the last bit was the dreaded pull ups I'm sure it was 10 you had to do to pass I barely did 3 my arms where like lead and my body was done for by then I really did try and actually trained before for months but had no chance, we also did the beep test which one of the other recruits out did the pt instructors which was amazing to see they were very impressed with him!! One night sleeping in the barracks we were all frog marched out at something like 3 in the morning and got told off for something can't remember what being noisy I can't remember but they said if you want to be like school children then they will treat us like it and made us site in the reception area for and hour legs crossed if I remember then back to bed, it's probably something they do to all recruits I don't really know to be honest that was fun! We did the cannon sand bag movement and then team building using a couple of planks of wood and barrels we had to move a full barrel and our team without touching the floor I don't think any of the groups successfully achieved it, it was a great 3 days of my life and on the train ride home I fell asleep standing upright I didn't even know that was possible but I definitely did propped up between the 2 sections of the train! All the guy who have served have my most respect those 3 days showed me how hard it actually is for te basic army let alone the more elite forces!
Sorry just to add the medical, cough test was interesting 😅 hearing test and eyesight test
Very good
Love Phil’s Artkis smock. Like the classic with a different twist.
Class 👏👏👏
I fill sick even thinking of doing that but Phil put me through my paces when I was under his command so I know he’s a true warrior love you big man keep up the good work
I'm a fan of bear grylls I've been watching it since the first episode
I always thought big Phil was royal Hampshire's before he went to the sas? So he was an all arms para and all arms commando aswell!! Decent boxer he is too!!
Because the Royal Hampshires turned into the PWRR after the amalgamation with the Queen's Reg. The PWRR were part of 5 AB Bde for a while and we're allowed to do P Coy if they wanted. Not many did but at least some attempted it.
@@SB-sj4uz My very first platoon sgt was PWRR, although we didn't chat too much about it! I was just a fkn crow after all!! I didn't realise they were the result of amalgamations after the Berlin wall blah blah! They were involved in quite a bit, the Hampshire's and there's a fair bit of history there. I suppose it was the same all over the country at that time though. Bastards in Whitehall!!
Hi I am following you 3 years big fanbroo
A man that holds a rifle but no land is just a pawn in a rich mans game
Bear sir u are just amazing really love your videos
Well done Phil
Lads, it's the Royal Marines..........only the best of the best. Thank you to all our brave servicemen and women for your service.
They are the navy’s infantry nothing more
Best of the best? Good joke
you are the best Bear
Very nice 👌
2 things I remember when in the forces was heartbreak lane and cardiac hill. On the deck and bang out 6 out of 10.
Bear you are a legend much love from Algeria 🇩🇿
Great to see Scott is still Fit like a Tiger :-)
The pti was best in Cory training us. Ha ha. Tough guys respect
Old Phil's got some momentum behind him. Top man.
