This video just saved me.
We need you!
And we love you!!
This film is short, but long enough to send a powerful message about male mental health and the unfortunate stigma that still persisits around it. Leaving the military after a long time is probabaly more difficult than most realize. Many people who serve in all branches have experienced pain in their young lives.
As this film shows, even the best among us are not immune. First and foremost, SF members are also flesh and blood falible human beings who are not immune from the rigours of life like anyone else.
Best wishes to Craig for his new ventures in the US. I wish him, above all else, peace and happiness.

It's such a beautiful video for anyone in a dark place. I think we men just suffer it alone. We don't talk about it even to our most dearest loved ones. Sometimes, talking helps temporarily, but only you can fix yourself. It's hard. It takes time, but it can be done. And you will fall again, but now you know how to get back up again.
Absolutely mate!
Amazing, stunning, love this, inspired me
anything with Craigheads name on it is worthwhile
I'm struggling to think when we used to communicate. You still have that daft grin..A mate spoke to you at the petrol station 2 days ago. I retire after 30 yrs in THE JOB week. When I saw you on YT was soooò proud.
I used to listen to this story on the radio when I was very young.
🤝
This man deserves a cup of tea and biscuits..well done
Thanks Chris - and thanks Tyler for making this. It's so hard to break the walls down - and no-one is coming - but it helps sometimes to know I'm not the only giant and mine is not the only garden. This has helped on a very difficult day, thank you.
🤝
That's crazy, this and the Nairobi siege video randomly came up in my feed and I had them both in separate tabs with no idea who Christian Craighead was! What an absolute legend!
🤝 thanks for watching!

For those unaware, 'The Regiment' is an unofficial reference to 22 SAS.
For those who don't know? Everybody knows that!
The World needs Chris and Tyler. More than never. We need you guy's. Much Respect and Love.
Thank you!
MUCH RESPECT MY BROTHER, GOD BLESS 🙏
I have often feared, should I choose to enter the darkness of my pain, I would not come back. "Just Come Back" hit me right in my Soul. How does one come back?
Hey man I wish I had the golden answer. But the overall idea behind “just come back” is doing your very best to make every part of your daily routine a reward. Eat good, train hard, talk to the people you love and the people you don’t know and get thoughts out of your mind instead of keeping them in. All easier said than done and that doesn’t fix everything. If you go out of your way to challenge your mind (ice bath or anything uncomfortable) you take a little bit back each time and build your brain muscles!
Personally I’ve suffered with a lot and those things worked into my daily routine seem to help me!
Thanks for watching man!
Thanks for making this. I've been watching it a lot. Some things are hard to put words on. We're not alone.
Totally not alone mate glad you could get something from this film as that was our intention!
❤ Beautiful Soul
Good job Chris. Giving back from such a long and tough career.
Life's funny. I remember watching this video a while back when I thought I was going through a tough time. Then I had a proper tough time regarding my cardiac health . It's been a dark few months, getting there, and been feeling good, had a bad moment today, knocked me back, scared me but I then remembered how calming this video was back then and here I am watching it again. Life's odd.
I’m glad you can find peace in this film! We made this film to be viewed more than once. Even though I made it I also watch to remind myself that good and bad days happen for us all. This is a safe space 👊
Beautiful short movie.
Cheers from Sweden.
Thank you so much!
Amen, salute Sir!
Thanks Christopher!
Bravo!!!..two zero;)
Very well put together. With such a powerful message, especially at this time of year. Look forward to seeing more of your work 👍
Thanks so much Chris! Means a lot mate
@@TylerPalmerFilmmaker this will sound slightly insane mate...but I have got to make a film and I'm not a film maker...I am a very old friend of Christians...if done correctly it will change the world....I'm sure Christian will vouch for me,and I hope he would like to be involved....it all centres around the history of where he was brought up,and I know he will get a real kick out the story....hope to hear back from you and I will tell you more...tell Chris I say hi...
Thank you for this, Chris and Tyler. A truly excellent film.
You’re most welcome Simon. Appreciate the kind words mate
Great.
Great short film! Amazing what wonders a cold swim does.
It’s actually does a lot of good for your mental! Glad you liked it Luke!
Fascinating to see this more creative and dramatic side to Christian, although I imagine it's based on reality.
I do wonder what these war heroes go through mentally in the years after their service. I thought quite a bit about joining as a young man, but my family had lost a few men in combat so never did. Always had a fascination for it though. There is a kind of purity in that pursuit of excellence.
I have my horses. That's the only thing that kept me going mate. Great little parable.
Such truth to this........funny to see Christian so serious, I bet he had you in stitches filming this
amazing.
wow. God bless you. And may God have mercy on Christian's soul for all the horrors he's seen
Very good for anyone who struggles. Thank you.
No worries at all! 👊
This deserves more views
Thank you mate!! 👊
I remember when someone told me I couldn't do something. It was the best thing they could have ever said to make me achieve what I wanted.
👊
Woke up screaming.
Stood blanked out.
Shouted at people for less reason than needed.
Hurt myself to feel alive .
Screamed in the car driving .
Had to control myself in really small everyday confrontations.
I've been arrested.
Suicide is not an option it's a certainty.
This is a serious message, and I'm not a Walter Mitty.
Good for Christian, this should be on national TV as a Man's club advert.
Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year to all reading this.
Agree with this wholeheartedly 🖤✨
Thank you for your kind words Michael. Merry Christmas and prosperous New Year to you too!
@Tyler Palmer Filmmaker may your god be with you .
By the way, the story is a Christmas favourite of mine.
It brought a tear my eye when I was a child 50 yrs ago.
It is very relevant to men right now.
Thank you for a fine piece of work.
Totally agree about this being a portrait to getting to the other side of the wall.
Screaming in the car … I’d scream around the house to pretend figures.
Flying off the handle, yes.
Crying in the shower, then just shave and go to work. Not really concentrate the first few hours until I’d shrugged off the broken night’s sleep.
Nice girls confused why I’d ask them to leave before I slept and being too ashamed / worried to explain and thinking keeping it in was a better way to manage. That kept me alone for a long time.
Thanks Chris. Thanks to all those who put this together with you.
I wish I’d invested more in family and friends, especially after the last time. Now I do, and it helps. Don’t live far away from others. Casual dropping around is a good way to start building normality again. Just sharing is all.
Edit: Thank you Tyler.
@devlin7575 God bless you, brother. Merry Christmas.
beautiful and connecting is all i can describe this.😁
I've just come across this video now. How powerful and inspiring and true.
Thank you Chris and thanks to the narrator etc.
Best wishes to all men, keep the faith.
From south Wales....
This is magnificent, lovely job to the lot of you. Inspiring stuff, I hope more people around the world can get to see this.
Thanks so much mate appreciate the kind words and yes. Even if someone can get a tiny bit of motivation or confidence that they’re not alone this film has served it’s purpose!
Christian is the one, the legend!UK is proud of you! I Talked to Netflix Head Producer aborto this movie in their catalogue
🤝
👍powerful.
Brilliant.
I watch this short movie probably three times a week, it seems to resonate and inspire, i find abstract and subtle stuff like this can often reach parts of us that we become so good at burying,
i was on telics 2, 3,4 and 5, probably passed through Brize the same time as Christian but never met
"Sirs Ma'ams Ladies and Gentlemen can i have your attention please, those boarding flight Romeo Romeo..."
Exactly what this is for my friend. Thanks for watching. And by you commenting and watching as much as you do. You’re helping this film reach more people who might need it!
Inspiring , more needs to be done to help our warriors after the life. Slick production.
Thanks so much mate!
Powerful!!!
Thanks mate
Excellent work! Thank-you.
Thank you Joe!
Amazing film! Surrounding a true hero
Thank you so much Javier!
Cinematography, color grading, audio… everything is spot on! Really fantastic work. And what an privilege to have been able to work with Christian Craighhead. Congrats and best regards from south Spain
Thank you, I’m working on taking down my own wall. But it’s seams like I have to do it stone by stone and it take more energy to take down then to put up. Three stones down then one stone up but I will get there
However long it takes you to do it man! Just don’t stop. You will for sure get there.
You'll be grateful you took those stones off your shoulders. Keep going strong, I believe in you.
This is powerful! Great film!
Thank you Nick!
