I don't know how 6 Days would score on the accuracy scale (it was a dramatization, after all), but it was definitely watchable and looked like it depicted most major events fairly. It even made me like the SAS somewhat haha. Also worth a watch is the Siege of Jadotville.

@@efebilicioglu4466 more like R6
it actually is a cod mission it was seen in the 2019 remake of modern warfare but played out differently with the goal being for the terrorists trying to get their leader back while price and the sas snuck in to extract wolfe and Alex with the CIA the Marines and a group of rebels did a full assault to mask the insertion of the sas needless to say it that diversion attempt failed and both the CIA and the sas entered a full on battle in the embassy
"bro did you get r6?
"yea i'm just protecting the hostages."

"hol' up."
Fuze: did somebody say hostage!
For anyone interested in some minor equipment facts:
- The respirators famously worn by the SAS soldiers was the British Army's standard respirator at the time, the S6, which was in service from 1966 to 1986 when it was replaced by the more famous S10 (seen in games like CoD4 and CoD:MW)
- The terrorists' SMGs have been quoted as being the Czech vz.61 Skorpion and the Polish wz.63 RAK in different reliable sources (Russell Philips' book on the topic and the Imperial War Museum's description of the wz.63 respectively), which is likely where the error of "Polish made Skorpion" comes from, the only country other than Czechoslovakia to build Skorpions under licence was Yugoslavia
However, of these two we only seemingly have a photo of one of the terrorists with the wz.63, so it's the more accurate answer out of the two
Big brain time
Also, one of the SAS member was become the inspirational character for Captain Price in CoD:MW series
Did the SAS have the ballistic armor avaliable at the time? I know that kevlar was invented and used in ballistic vests by that time, so...
Gyan Ko Please do this on as many Simple History videos, Thank you

But why was it demonetized in the first place?
