He seemed pretty friendly, asked my brother and I how school was going. We recognised him when we saw him on TV being interviewed about the Iranian Embassy Siege.

    The fact that this unit existed since ww2 but no one knew about their existence until the 80s is one of the many qualities I like about SAS the ability to remain secretive. Perhaps one of the few special forces units in the world who have been able to control their media exposure. Unlike the US and Hollywood.

      Really, this speaks more to the lack of free speech than it does anything else. Very easy to keep a unit and their operations on the DL if you just punish everyone who says anything about them with death or imprisonment. Though, really, it was probably just fines and article take downs.
      Before you counter me with anything at all, let me just point out, saying "Heil Hitler" to people on a street corner in Germany as an (admittedly distasteful) joke will likely get you fined, imprisoned, or deported, whichever applies best to the situation. The only European country that I've seen even maybe has genuine free speech is France, and I wouldn't really know, as I don't have any French friends. Mind, I have a lot of friends around the rest of the EU, but not France. I keep trying to fix that problem, but I usually only meet people from Paris, France, and most of those guys are assholes, or barely speak any English. The rest of Europe still uses heavy censorship in regards to what their governments are doing. That's not to say the US doesn't, but once the cat is out of the bag, they don't try to put it back in over here by imprisoning people who talk about the cat.

      It did and didn't. SAS was made as a "Project" during ww2 to combat Rommels increasing and daring victories in Africa. And was after the war or shortly after closed down, but then years later re-openend again, as the tactics of warfare was ever changing. The Iranian embassy was the first time the world actually got to see how impressive some of these elite units were.

    SAS practice is to shoot the bodies of any assailants when they go past them to ensure they're not playing dead.
    This led to quite an amusing situation here, where there was a body on the corner, so it got shot every time someone went past, it was later found to have over 300 rounds in it 😅

      Nah, they were shooting to make sure, cause they noticed hand grenade in his hands prior not after the shooting. I don't think these three SAS who shot him missed a lot, lol. Cause in the interview one of these SAS guys said: "he came clear at the bottom the stairs there was me and two other guys standing there. We all fired a burst each and about 27 holes and that was it". I don't know from where narrator of this channel got these facts about 3-4 magazines. And there are more nonsense in this narrative, better watch BBC documentary "SAS - Iranian Embassy Siege" 2002.

    As an American, I’m comfortable enough to say that the British S.A.S. had one of the greatest uniform/gear load outs in military history in the 80’s-2000’s. Those blue coverall “boiler suits”, black vests, black boots, and black S10 gas masks with MP5 variants were just too cool. Well before the digital/Multicam and reflex laser era. The 90’s DEVGRU Navy Seal loudout was at the same level. OD Green flight suit, black boots, black vests, with US Navy aircraft carrier deck crew helmets, MP5’s variants, XM-177 carbines, M14 mods, and M60’s.
    When I think counter terrorism or spec ops, I still think of these S.A.S. and DEVGRU teams. No other loud outs looked as good, even to this day.

    The team leader who got stuck on the abseil ropes and started a curtain fire sounds like Jonny English.

      Sergeant Takavesi didn't start the fire; it was started by a flashbang grenade that was put through the window by the entry team.

    The funny thing is that apparently a lot of the guys who were in on the raid had been watching the snooker tournament, and an important match was to take place during the raid on the embassy, so a lot of the guys' first question upon getting back to their hq was "how'd the snooker game go?"

    Yea I love the SAS. Strange, I knew this story already through and through, but didn't know that detail about the leader's debacle with his harness, catching fire by accident, and hitting one of the windows. Never the less, was a perfect job well done.

    "SAS is unknown to the general public"? The SAS is well-known way before the Operation Nimrod but its just that Nimrod brought out a new light to them.
    The SAS was well known to the general public as a sabotuer and commando forces for the British Military and their escapades in Northern Africa, sabotaging Italian and German airfield during WWII was very well known by everyone. However, counter terrorism wasn't in their minds at all till the Munich Hostage situation sprang up which highlighted that the Europeans were actually lacking a proper CT (Counter-terrorist) force and with Britain having such a powerful Commando force, why not make them into a CT force also. With the creation of the GSG-9 and training by them in conducting CT operations, they took the skill and real-life experience they had from the Lufthansa flight crisis and developed into what we know today.
