Unfortunately one of the Directive staff pictured in this video was killed in Afghanistan. RIP Matthew Locke
Very sorry to learn. RIP bro.
This course was a couple of years after Matt Locke was killed mate.
Matt was one of my best friends during basic training. A very sad day
Matthew Locke died in 2007 , this Doco came out in 2010
@@aaronkama7517 Thanks for clearing that up.
My brother was ex-SAS. He toured Afghanistan and Iraq.
I miss him greatly. He was truly a force to be reckoned with.
@Ozgipsy damn man can I ask what happened
What happened???
Worked with one of the instructors here when he left the Army. Not a big bloke, asked him what he did before, he said "public servant." You'd never pick him as ex-SAS.
I knew a guy he did the classic that he put the stickers on the apples
@@theconvictedquokka i knew a guy whos brothers dads son was working as a bartender whos customer would have a beer with a guy that new someone from this course
I know a few of the blokes actually on the TV here because the ones that,get shown don't make it, this time.
As it should be and once was but not so much now!
@shaunphillips6160 wdym one of the blokes shown is Andrew hastie
I'm not a military person, but Poms,Aussies, and Kiwi SAS are exceptional.
Ozzie's have too be due too our Massive Empty Boiling Hot Country with Insane Terrain and with 9 out of the 10 most deadly snakes on the planet never mind the spiders, millipedes, stonefish, Cone shells, jellyfish etc etc etc!
The Vietnamese called the Australian SAS Ma Rung. Which means 'phantoms of the jungle'
Yea so amazing that aussies knew the jungle better than those that lived there for generations.. yup.. and who said that called phamtoms? oh the guy that wrote the titled book. You all gullible.
@user-yr4mo3iz4d research. Something your anonymous self doesn't do. W⚓️
@@user-yr4mo3iz4dactually the Vietnamese and you can find them saying it in a few documentaries. It wasn't that the SASR were better than them, it was they could move through the jungle without making noise and made their comrades disappear without a trace. The Vietnamese were incredibly seasoned fighters who were only concerned about one group of westerners, the SASR. They weren't concerned about US troops or our regular Army troops or indeed anyone else and that's again coming from the Vietnamese. Hell our regulars, who are better than their US counterparts, were nothing more than an inconvenience for them..
@@user-yr4mo3iz4d You clueless mate we Aussies live in the same jungles lol. North QLD is tropical rainforest jungles where 2 feet in you can get lost, Aussies were fighting in same jungles during WW2 Papua New Guinea is all thick tropical jungles where Aussies defeated Japanese.
Borneo Aussies Special Z Unit trained head hunter tribesman to fight Japanese and those tribesman taught Aussies their trade also. interview with 1 Special Z guy who said we would be standing 50 feet from them and Japs never knew we were there.
Sparrow Force in Timor WW2 did the same 18 men against whole Japanese divisions. read how they harrassed the Japs so bad.
SASR taught navy seals and MACV SOG and were members of it.
Is interview with Rodger Hayden navy seal on JOKOWILINKS youtube of spending 10 days on mission with SASR in Vietnam and he was amazed in those 10 days not one word was spoken. he said his entire career no other special forces in world including British SAS had the tradecraft the Aussies did,
Was again proven in Afghanistan in Operation Anaconda SASR excelled in long recon and never spotted while a Devgru unit was and failed and German KSK also spotted and failed.
@@user-yr4mo3iz4dyou can’t argue with them they got conflict of interest. They actually think they know someone else’s backyard better than the locals haha
I Had a mate he passed selection for SAS but didn't get a spot cause they had more officers pass than they needed. Told him he didnt get a spot and invited him to try again next year.
Its f*&king savage
About the quitting thing, he said the instructors where devious about it. They never said a single word of encouragement for the entire selection they just reminded you over and over that you can leave, that its not quitting, that you have succeeded just for getting this far, and that its ok to leave now, look how many people have left already, youll feel better if you leave. I cant give you any water, but you can get some back at camp just sign the form. etc etc
I failed SAS three minutes into the course. LOLOL! Had me rolling Jake. Awesome reaction video. Loving it!!!
TRUE FACTS!!!!
@@jakezweig nah I think you would get past it. They do that to get you to expose your personality and motivation. It might not get you into officer school but they don't want to check your spelling, they want to check how solid and reliable you are.
@@jakezweig No Mate.. They arent looking for a shakespearian play.. They just want to see how full of shit oyu are and how honest you are with yourself
As an Australian its interesting to see some feedback on the SASR from someone with more experience then me and from another country.
I like your positive and humble attitude and can't wait for you to (hopefully) show us the rest.
Subscribed!! Thanks Jake.
Thank you for coming maan!!!! More to come
Brit who lives in NZ here - you have no idea how much we love it when Americans, especially badass door-kicking Americans say nice things about the SAS.
THank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is such a unique perspective and i wouldve never picked up on those small psychological things if i watched alone, man you must have to truly be exceptional for this stuff
Can’t be nervous, you gotta be hungry. I love that, Jake! I’m stealing that one! Straight fire!🔥🔥🔥
Damn, imagine telling your leadership that you failed selection over a freakin' essay about yourself. 😂😂😂😅
I know in British SAS jungle phase selection you need to write perfectly presented (including no water damage!) daily reports on your movements in addition to writing up ambush plans etc. I assume in the Australian selection they want to identify poor communicators while also learning how people are seeking to present themselves more generally. I imagine the latter is to make the interrogation phase following escape and evasion more personally brutal.
Thats why i would have failed
@@brianboyle2681that's exactly why they do the essay, so they can use it against them later..dirty, but very clever trick
Because the majority of their work is surveillance so to speak. You must be able to articulate information clearly and in detail when needed.
One of my friends went through selection and passed however wasn’t selected as he was too “regimental” in that he was too compliant with sops
Where’s part 2 ?!?!? Come onnnnn Jake. Mmmmmmmmkkkayyyy
Tuesday man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@jakezweig cool
@jakezweig right
I can't wait for part 2 mmmmkkkkaaayyyyy
These operators are the blokes Delta Force call when they're in trouble. Operation Anaconda Shahi Valley
That would be the actual SAS, UK force.
@CommonSenserules1981 wrong again. You're making a habit of that though. The information is freely available online. Only stinking poms involved were British royal marines. Once again. Chat shit.
My cousin was a Colonel in the SAS .
2 tours of Vietnam
Military Cross
Lovely bloke
I watched a now old Doco on Seal training from about 2001. And may i say, hell week looked like. Well, Hell. It was pretty brutal. No sleep for almost 6 day's. Much respect to all Special forces who are allies. Thank you all for your service.
They could have 150 go though this course and if they didn't like what they saw , none would become SAS troopers. It's not about percentages with these guys. Many get recommended for Comandos , even more fail outright. They aren't just looking for strong and tough , they are looking for smart and resourceful people who can work as a team and just refuse to quit.
Australia just doesn't have the equipment or numbers the US has so we have to make up the difference with extremely well trained personnel.
It's also about being one of the boys, if you don't fit the mould.. you could be Hercules and pass the course with flying colours. Still wouldn't be selected. Alot of relevance to the essay they had to write
Wow, I never realised what my husband went through, he always protected me and my boys, from knowing how dangerous it was . He was always positive and supportive of me when he came home from secret operations and was never a man that complained about anything. I guess I got one in a million..
Are you still married ?
I would love to talk with you about what you have been doing to keep it going
@@jakezweig we are still married and still have a great relationship. Thank you for asking.
@@jakezweig respect for each other. And only me cooking in the kitchen, him on the BBQ….😉
I had a childhood friend who joined the SAS. Air-transporting him & colleagues was one of the most interesting and eye-opening experiences. He later died on a civilian parachute jump - but he saved his student at the cost of his own life. RIP Antonio.
Fun fact: not a single person who's face they showed on this show made it.
I know of one guy on that particular selection course who made it but you never see him in the documentary. So it's possible if you see them they didn't make it.
I worked with half a dozen blokes that were on that course all amazing diggers, 1 passed.. another was medically excused and passed the following selection
Hey man, you asked me to talk about my experience with the selection course. You never told me your questions, so I'll just say everything I feel you might want to know.
I did the selection course in 2015 and passed, but I pulled out when they said it was highly unlikely we'd see our families for the next 24 months. I had no family at the time, only two grandparents who were starting to reach the end of their lives, and I realised I'd always regret doing it if my grandparents died. I also wasn't feeling the military so much anymore and was questioning my own reasons for actually wanting to join.
My grandfather died 6 months later, so I feel I made the right choice.
Everyone who is in the in the infantry does the SF selection course, be it commandos or SASR. At some point, it's just something you expect to do eventually; it's seen as a progression of your career. It takes several years of training to attempt. I started physical training 3 years prior.
This is also why you get a lot of people who get there and might be doing well or even pass but then go, "Why am I actually here?"
They are looking for experienced veterans who have several years of deployments under their belt; they don't want kids off the street, and the SASR doesn't actually have a direct entry scheme; however, commandos do, but very few have ever passed.
They are also looking for people born for the role; no amount of training will get you into their good graces. They are looking for a specific type of person, mostly the kind of person who just does the task they are given without staring at the ground, moaning, or whining. They are looking for people focused on their task, not talking about home, or clearly wanting to just do the course and go home and play video games until they start rotation.
The course I experienced was much harder than this one, and we actually cannot fully detail what the course entails so as to not give anyone an advantage.
The essay is not a mind fuck or a trick. We don't play games in the AUS military; it's just to see if you waffle on and on or if you are direct and just straight to the point and give the information requested in an efficient, satisfactory manner.
Likewise, things like weapons parts missing are not a game; these people genuinely just lost the parts.
I hope that answers your questions.
And remember something about SAS and SASR: genuine troopers won't tell people they are/were in the SAS, so if anyone does, they are stolen valour cases. Im talking about this precisely because I didn't make it.
great content Jake! Keep it coming! Great to hear your perspective on other spec ops units!
Mr. Zweig, as a Navy Seal, I highly respect the fact that you even admit that the British SAS is the premier unit in the world.
@@coreyb.3127 thabk you
remember watching a British SAS selection program many years ago (would love to find it on CZcams )
remember at the end they had to finish a run in full gear to pass, one of the guys crossed the line outside the time limit
but they passed him anyway because he finished the run after he broke his leg about halfway into it. They said that's the kind of guy we need.
Excellent commentary, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Jake killing it as always
Australia really gets down the with f$&@ f$&@ games 😂.
Full blown
It's a sign of endearment 😂
part of the selection process...swim with a swarm of box jelly fish, eat a brown snake, wrestle a bird eating spider and wear a stone fish as a helmet and that's the easy part.
Try getting dropped off in the middle of knowhere with a canteen full of water and a day's worth of rations with only a set of coordinates to work off, but you don't even know where you were even dropped off
I love that you are reacting to this, these series are amazing man. Interesting to get to see perspective on different special ops selection processes from a SEAL. Can't wait to see more
Glad you like them!
My cousin was in this. He finally was pulled after he snapped a bone during the pack march and didn’t say a word for 80kms. Grinding the bone to dust in silence. Before asking to get it treated after they returned. His COs didn’t believe him until they saw the report.
All love from Australia man! This video was so captivating, you had me engaged from start to finish. I've been looking for someone to do a genuine reaction to SASR and this did not disappoint. Pumped for part 2 bro. 🔥
Go for it! What did you think of part 3
Now we know why it's called the Essay S ;)
@@GM-fh5jp I see what you did there 🫡
@@clubsport9334 At least *someone* appreciated it :)
This is great analysis of the SASR 👍
Not for everyone is it. I work with an ex Aussie commando and also hubby worked with the tactical AFP guys (policing) we became friends with some of them and they are different then normal population.
It’s like a switch in their head where they go from being normal to wanting to run toward the sounds of gun shot instead of away
Think that’s something your born with
My US friend , if you had told the CO you had trouble writing it , you would have passed as it demonstrates your honesty !
Let the pys ops begin! Love your insightful and funny commentary.
There were 3 SAS guys in my soccer team. Holy shit they were fit, but every now and then all three would be missing for a few games and come back pretending nothing had happened.
One of them was struggling with some shit and when we were drinking at my place one night he got a lot off his chest. No bloody wonder he was struggling. Fucking hell.
YAh man scary behind the curtain
just remember. The british SAS come over here to learn in the desert and the BUSH . cHEERS
Delta, 22 sas British, devgru, Australian sas all have similar capabilities just some focus more on different things. And the aussies can and do train/do exercises in public civilian areas like ports, air ports etc
All these guys work together in every conflict, see Australia SAS and British SASR on missions together all the time, see pics and both got who dares wins motto on their uniforms and some with AUS flags and other's with UK.
Vallahall youtube Green Beret said Aussies are the best trained as far as he is concerned...
@@nedkelly9688not forgetting NZ !!
Your best one yet Jake
I love every bit of this
It literally looks like his head is a shark fin the whole video. Once you see it, you won’t be able to unsee it 😂😂😂
Ive heard of blokes who went from now 2 commando over to selection for this regiment
It's remarkable how many ex-soldiers were SAS, just as so many ex-sailors were SBS. Same with the RAAF, everyone of them flew jet fighters. Surprisingly few of them can remember their service number or where they did their rookies.
No1 SAS = British (of course) No2 SAS = New Zealand. No3 SAS Australia. No3 deemed by other SF operators as Tier 2 unit! Sometimes, Tier 1!
question - Belgian SAS - where do they fit in with this picture? Also why was there no such thing as Canadian SAS? I know they were put together during the war by the same bloke who was chosen to resurrect the British SAS in the 50's a real psychotic hard man by the name of Mad Mike Calvert. He was an ex Chindit column commander and knew everyting there was to know about jungle warfare.
My uncle Ray was ex Gloucesters and went into the SAS in the '50's just after Calvert re-organized them and reformed the regiment. He went back and finished his time in the Gloucesters as a recruiter. Bloody fearsome specimen who maintained his brother who was a scientist in the REME was a lot tougher, fitter and capable as a soldier than he himself could ever be. Ray said he was the only man he ever met who he was truly scared of and he stayed in the REME 22 years before ending up as a government scientist on radar/early warning systems.
HR violations are coming😂😂
Guy at the top left of the screen at 9:21 is definitely going to make it. Lol.
Posture of pure dominance 😂
😂😂😂
Parade rest lol
JACKED
Absolutely Correct !
Trust me the Australian SAS is the raw deal! These guys are make Mick Dundee look a Boy Scout. I’d say they might just be the “Toughest!” I met three and let me tell you they are tough as Titanium….
Jake you should check out the Danish Frogmen. 600 apply every year and only 311 have made it from 1957 to 2015.
Is it on youtube send me the link
Australian vet here i did selection myself actually the yelling has nothing to do with special forces other countries just don't yell anymore we all determined in studies that yelling constantly does nothing to build up soldiers to work under pressure its just childish and gives the recruits a sense of "they will yell at us any way" they then ignore training staff when they are being told they have a bad time
we view yelling as unprofessional i once yelled at a subordinate because i lost my cool and got chewed out for it and charged you only yell if some ones really fucked up
Hey man would you be willing to talk about your time in selection and what happened, they are very powerful videos
@@jakezweig what did you want to know?
This is going to be fire 🔥
Jake be drawing pictures on the essay
Flip book
The dreaded SASSA, SAS essay.
New Zealand SAS is pretty handy themselves, I know cos my dad was in the First Ranger Squadron the very first SAS unit of New Zealand. He worked all over the middle east and Malaya Vietnam, Borneo etc. He reckons the BEST he ever met are the Gurkhas from Nepal, playful little buggers they loved to play tricks. One of their faves was to tie together the boot laces of a soldier who was On Watch, the soldier steps, trips over to the cacophony of an entire Gurkha Unit laughing their asses off.
NZ SAS are tier 1! The Aussies.....tier2!
These guys are all great soldiers, but to be SASR is special.
Think there are about 12 episodes, it gets tough.
i told people i am sas and wore a uniform i made out of bits and pieces and would march at anzac day parades. it was all going really well until some arseholes pulled me up one day and drilled me with questions about what unit i was in and who i served with and where. then they had the audacity to tell me all my uniform is wrong and tore off all my medals. they then beat the absolute shit out out me. ive NEVER received a beating like that before. they made me take off my uniform and i had to walk back to my car naked while they poured warm beer on me. it was the most humiliating experience of my life.
Come on man
We go from watching Bluey on a bus to getting kicked in the nuts by writing an essay…yea man, that’s a mind f*k.
Great channel 👊🏻 one thing is for sure, the bond between yanks and Brits they say is ‘special’….but for us guys who have served and have worked together on operations that bond is on another level for sure. Massive mutual respect 🫡
Thank you

Truth. United States Air Force,…..we got off a bus.
VA Claims preparatory course 12:51
i was in the NZ army and i knew the SAS was pretty hard to pass to enter into, i thought about it for 5 seconds until i spoke to several people who had gone through the training.
Joining the school is definitely worth it! Not only do you get full access to everything for just $80, but you also receive the SEAL blueprint that normally costs like 300$ on his other websites If you're serious about becoming a SEAL, this is a great opportunity you shouldn't miss!
Boooooom
I saw this a few years back ,, good content Brother J , you on target sir . My only request , is please finish this in good chronological segments , on class 234 , the first reactions were the best , but as time passed , it wasn’t the same , your humor on it wasn’t the same , but bad ass no less , just the first ones were the best ,, hands down.
@jcarlo331 yah man I'm working on it big time
Good video but short!
Seen the graduates from this selection course some of the guys could barely walk when entering REO cycle but they still soldiered on.
No one you see made it. You will never see a SAS soldiers face in the media.
Man you should do more of these videos.
@@Ethan-xf4or they are coming
I see 131 there in the photo at 4:00, someone must of pulled out or been pulled out and that bloke managed to squeeze in.
Great review, after this you should review the documentary “NZSAS first among equals” New Zealand’s SAS selection.
got it
@@jakezweig If you watch it, during the hairs and hounds run, the guy spitting on the Ground was the greatest soldier I ever served with.
Luke Tamatea.

Fk he was the man.
I’m noticing a lot of us aussies have the exact same voice 😂
Wait for my kids Aussies role play
We dont't have Navy SEALs. Here Down Under, the closest we have is Navy Clearance Divers. Unless Aussie SEALs is a recenlty started up SEAL unit. Did the SASR selection course some years back, it was not as hard as what the media makes out. There is absolutely no shouting or yelling at you by the Selection staff. If you need to be motivated by yelling, SASR doesn't want you.
Yep, same thing for me. The literacy test I will be screwed.
9:46 "Little wee wees"
scariest part for me is definitely the essay
In aussy, the tv standards are fine, its just america that has problems with the body and age ratings on shit... america sensors everything, the uk, aus, and nz are likely to have the same tv standards
@@pixellyth yah the California effect
The old addage was pull the pin if you wanted to quit
Due to the legal issues around SAS operators being identified, it is unlikely anyone who passed the course was id'd on the programme. Those that pass then have a twelve month training nightmare in front before they are inducted. They become absolute professionals in at least one discipline such as medic, languages, engineering, ordinance etc.
@simonmartin-zp7kt everyday is survival
G'day mate, just found your channel. Good stuff brother. I'm an Aussie veteran, 20 odd years service and proud to have been a grunt (Infantry). Very proud of ALL of the soldiers that have served their country. Have operated with American forces, and found them a great bunch of guys. Their general training, weapon handling, tactics and bush craft were of course somewhat different to ours, but the end result was the same. Combat readiness, and the expertise and determination to complete the mission. This forms the brotherhood that you are a part of for the rest of your life. Stay loose brother, greetings from Oz. Subbed.
@@andyedmond248 lets get an audience on the channel!!!! Jake.zweig@gmail.com let's shoot a zoom
It's actually Special Air Services Regiment.
One IED constructed and placed by a determined but untrained individual whose nation have been invaded or a stray shot from a fifteen-year-old kid and all your training is worth nothing.
These guys are also very respectful to other Corps. Infantry would hang shit on us "Pogos" in services Corps like me in Transport but the SAS always were grateful for your input. Probably being the best and everyone knowing that you are the best you don't have to act hard.
Thanks!
@@timothycole4212 you the man
6:38 😂😂 lol
See this is why i think this training is a little harder , because , there is absolutely no feedback on how your doing , and they fuck with your mind ,, no doubt , this is serious shit .
Jake, I'm going to the army with an option 40 currently training up. Once I get a decent 5 miles time I will be contacting you so hopefully you can give me some constructive critism and any tips you may have. All love brother
I'll share with you a couple of things. Train up to the best of your ability and be in prime physical condition. OSUT (I'm assuming you are going in as infantry) should be a breeze for you physically, but push hard to maintain your level of fitness once you head off to jump school before heading off to RASP. It is critically important that you maintain your level of fitness and your "no quit" mindset throughout the whole process because you will find time to slip a bit (like at jump school) before getting to Ranger Regiment, so be mindful of that as you go through training.
You get all of the advice you need on how to get ready and what workouts to do, but it is all about maintaining that edge getting through less difficult training heading into the most difficult course, which would be RASP. Good luck, bro.
Do you have the army pdf? jake.zweig@gmail.com and ask for it
@jakezweig I do not, sending you an email now. Thank you so much Jake
@parawill7074 thanks for the tips brother. I'll die before I quit. Quiting isn't an option so I guess we learn to enjoy the pain!! God bless
All this was taken from German SS training in WW2 , all modern training is SS !
Here's a breakdown of UKSF (United Kingdom Special Forces; 22 SAS and SBS selection)...
PHASE ONE
1. Aptitude; Navigation & Endurance (commonly referred to as Hills Phase) 4 weeks of *DAILY* mountain marches navigating by map from point to point against an *unspecified* time limit. Typical schedule as follows (remember, these marches are EVERY DAY)...
Week 1 15-20 km 40lbs weight+weapon, water etc.
Week 2 18-24 km 45lbs weight+weapon, water etc.
Week 3 20-32 km 50lbs weight+weapon, water etc.
Week 4, Test Week; consists of 5 marches over 7 days
march 1, 2 & 3; 30 km 60lbs weight+weapon, water etc.
march 4; 35 km 60lbs weight+weapon, water etc.
THEN, 4 hours rest and start the final march; Long Drag; *65* km 70lbs weight+weapon, water etc. 20-24 hour time limit (weather dependent).
---------------
PHASE TWO
2. Jungle warfare, tactics, navigation ALL LIVE FIRE TRAINING. 6 weeks.
Those who have passed phase one have to then pass jungle training. Training takes place in Belize or Brunei, deep in jungles. Candidates learn the basics of surviving and patrolling in the harsh conditions. UKSF jungle patrols have to live for weeks behind enemy lines, in 4 man patrols, living on rations. This includes yet more days of marches point to point. Jungle training weeds out those who can't handle the discipline required to keep themselves and their kit in good condition whilst on long range patrols in difficult conditions. Again, there is a mental component being tested, not just a physical. Special Forces teams need men who can work under relentless pressure, in horrendous environments for weeks on end, without a lifeline back to home base.
----------------
PHASE THREE
Continuation; Foreign and new weapons skills, CQB training and testing in the world-renowned SAS Killing House where live ammo is used. Advanced infantry and marksmanship skills etc.
Escape & Evasion & Tactical Questioning/Resistance to Interrogation
The small number of candidates who have made it through endurance and jungle training now enter the final phase of selection. The likelihood of a special operation going wrong behind enemy lines is quite high, given the risks involved. UKSF want soldiers who have the wherewithal and spirit required to escape and evade capture and resist interrogation.
For the escape and evasion (E&E) portion of the course, the candidates are given brief instructions on appropriate techniques. This may include talks from former POWs or special forces soldiers who have been in E&E situations in the real world.
Next, the candidates are let loose in the countryside, wearing World War 2 vintage coats with instructions to make their way to a series of waypoints without being captured by the hunter force of other soldiers. This portion lasts for 3-5 days after which, captured or not, all candidates report for TQ.
Tactical Questioning (TQ) tests the prospective UKSF men's ability to resist interrogation. They are treated roughly by their interrogators, often made to stand in 'stress positions' for hours at a time, while disorientating white noise is blasted at them. When their turn for questioning comes, they must only answer with the so-called 'big 4' (name, rank, serial number and date of birth). All other questions must be answered with 'I'm sorry but I cannot answer that question.' Failure to do so results in failing the course. The questioners will use all sorts of tricks to try and get a reaction from the candidates. They may act friendly and try to get their subjects chatting; or they stand inches away from their subjects and scream unfavourable remarks about the sexual habits of their mothers. Female interrogators may laugh at the size of their subject's manhood. Of course, a real interrogation would be a lot more harsh and the subject would not know that they get to leave alive when it's all over. That said, days of interrogations and enduring the stress positions and white noise break down a man's sense of time and reality. UKSF are looking for men who can withstand such treatment long enough so that the effects of revealing any operational information they might have can be lessoned by HQ.
------------------------------------------------------------
This is 6 months in, successful candidates for the SAS are now badged and report to Hereford, the home of 22 SAS.
The SBS candidates still have a further selection/continuation phase to complete before being badged and report Royal Marines Poole, the home of the SBS.
Completion of this 6 month selection course is NOT the end. They then start SF training (which never ends) and for the 1st year in particular are on probation; they can be sent back to their original unit at any time.
@@Dr.Ian-Plect and that my friend is why there are so few at the very top
@@jakezweig Indeed, it is this selection process that sets 22 SAS and the SBS apart for me.
Lol Aussies train in Australia in the jungles we do not need to go to a foreign country to do that and even train other Asian and Americans in our jungles.
Aussies been doing the jungle survival since WW2. Special Z Unit WW2. Sparrow Force is longest behind enemy lines special forces of WW2. SASR are trained to spend weeks behind enemy lines surviving off the land.
SASR hold record for longest out on patrol in Afghanistan of 50 days straight no RTB the whole time..
@@nedkelly9688 Childish and irrelevant (that gets you muted). The point here is that including jungle as a significant aspect of _selection_ (a phase that many operators consider the hardest of all) is a big part of the arduousness of a process just to see if you are good enough to get into the unit. And 22 SAS runs a world-class jungle warfare program for both national and international units.
Muted.
@@Dr.Ian-Plect Haha you crybaby would fail selection as you soft as hell.. people will laugh at you..Mute for the weak.. you the childish one coming in to a Aussie topic then try brag about British when can talk about them in a British SAS video. always British or Yank way is to make themsleves better then others....
Nothig childish in what i said, you the childish one saying makes British SAS and SBS different. thinking berter when are not..
That's an ARMY SELECTION SON. Everyone knows where it's really at. Seals were never built to be what the army can do. The Navy speaks for its self 😂
What's your point?
WRONG !! Not all special forces have come out of the Brit SAS at all, The Green Berets were first trained at Acnary in Scotland by Brit commandos who wore a green beret, hence the US Green Berets, The Australian SAS on the other hand were born out of what was the Australian Indpendant Companies of WW2 and Z Forcem The British SAS themselves came from the commando's who in turn were influenced by the Bore commandoes of the Bore War, so you are totally wrong!
Oh my you just made my case for me thank you
Actually, it was Russia and Germany who created the first special forces units. The Russian counter sniper teams were greatly feared by the Germans, and the Germans also had one of the best special forces early on, but they all probably started around the same time as the need arose. Then again, arguably, special people required to do extraordinary things, named or unnamed units or individuals is not a new concept to history. The Germanic Ghost Warriors are a prime example.
Agree
Brah, so many cats on here that I knew when I was in, we were so much younger dam this is cracking me up.

Great video think you can do a video on the South African police Special Task Force.
send me the link
@jakezweig type in South African special task force documentary 1995. Should give you a 2 plus hour video documentary on our elite unit.
If any of the candidates withdraw from SASR selection, they are never able to apply again. I'm unsure if this is the same for the Commandos. If you are injured during selection and have to withdraw, you are able to apply again.
G'day if yar want check out an Australian song " I Was Only 19" by Redgum. He tell a story about going to and in Vietnam and touches on PTST, React or just listen for yourself, all good. It a must listen to on ANZAC DAY. Mad respect for those who served my brother was in Iraq and Afghanistan. THANK YOU.
Two of my friends were Aus SAS - both are friendly but can push themselves to some pretty horrible places in terms of exercise. Said just the training was enough for some ptsd.
Yes sir training is solid but nothing like the real job
@@jakezweig For sure. One of them deployed as a marksman multiple times. The other did not.
