These guys aren't lucky to be in the British Army.The British Army is lucky to have these guys.👍🏻
Yeah
@low7782 300 recruits in 12000 applicants
they deserved it
@@SedateGaming123 Its funny because you see the amount of "Injuries" from other regiments but these guys had 299 out of 300 pass out. The 1 had 2 broken legs and couldnt physically keep going. Ally blokes.
These guys give their all to their regiment, the army, to England and the Queen, God bless them all.
You know the families are lucky because the families are very rich
0:16 Bibek moktan my friend. He used to always talk about his dreams of joining british army. He finally made it. Happy for him
Beautiful. I'm happy for you and for him
I know bibek too!!
I’m glad he achieved his dream.
The Gurkhas are our long running friends and allies and always will be.
Thank you for your service brothers, and your many many sacrifices for Nepal and Great Britain!
Respect!
Hardstyle Dom91 glad to echo your pov.
If I had a regiment of Gurkhas and my old platoon, I believe that we would kick the Talibans butts up past their shoulders and we would be kicking them until the Taliban's noses would be bleeding. The Gurkhas are a jam up unit. I wish that the American military had a regiment.

It is our pleasure brother. The Nepalese are welcome here anytime friend, men women and children!! We know what you're about!
@mero maya beylght ko khaire ho ra bolamaya amar 6
Maybe I'll come to Nepal one day and we can go for a walk in the mountains. Nepal is much nicer than the UK.
Stay safe brother.

That's one of the good things about the British army, we have different flags fighting with us. Not so much anymore, but regiments of our boys from Nepal and the like are always welcome. Of course as well as our friends across the pond.
My Dad always said that not only are Gurkhas elite and great soldiers but they are the most loyal and friendly people you’ll ever meet and these guys seem so nice like they are all so happy and cheerful

The Gurkhas are brilliant. Had the good fortune of occasionally dealing with them in a previous job - including retired Gurkhas now living in Britain. It was always a pleasure as they and their families were so polite and humble. Britain is lucky to have such allies.
you mean mercenaries
@@geonm8685 nah allies
Lol for money allies?
@@xyzsing4038 so if a soldier is paid then he's a mercenary? nice then guess the whole british army are mercenaries guessing it's the same for something like the French foreign legion too.
@@geonm8685 no they are British soldiers
Welcome to Britain Gurkha warriors, proud to be British
They are Nepalese, and they fight for Britain.
let you know that these gurkhas are discriminated in many ways by british government
we had been fighting for our pension equality for 20 years. still no solution
Do british army have any british inside
@@thapasushan23 It's a complete disgrace the way that the Government treat these brilliant soldiers!
I am also Nepali I want also join British gorkha army 🇳🇵🇳🇵🇬🇧🇬🇧
I'm so proud Britains public donated millions in the Aid effort when that huge earthquake hit Nepal! We responded amazingly, we love you, and we will always help our fammily, and we should count Nepal as British fammily and give hundreds of millions in foreign aid from our foreign aid budget of £14 billion a year... let's help our true friends more.
In WW2, my dad was a US, B-25 Mitchell, bomber pilot, stationed in N. Africa. Flying into Morocco, and moving eastward across Africa, as the Germans fell back. And bombing up into Europe. Eventually, their base was Corsica. But...
But alll through the various bases they had in N. Africa. The Gurka's guarded the planes at night, from sabotage. And as my dad said....
When the sun went down....nobody would ever venture out of their camp, to go down near the planes. As while you may not see them...you'd find yourself with Gurkas right behind you. That you didn't take the chance they might mistake you for someone else.
That they never ever once, had anybody touch or get near a plane. And the GI's never risked being near the planes at night. Dad could not speak highly enough, as to how outstanding the Gurkas were.
I give all respect to these Gurkhas fighting for my country🇬🇧
Makes me so proud to have you as allies. Always will respect you 🇬🇧
🇬🇧🇬🇧🇮🇳🇮🇳❤❤❤ I love British military and yes I do love UK but what I dont like in UK is Brexit but otherwise I love UK
@@sailor_guy9841 may I ask why you don't like Brexit?
pierre rockpierre He’s talking about NEPALESE. 🇳🇵
@@sailor_guy9841 Bro why are you putting your flag.They are Nepalese and even the Gorkha in India are also Nepalese.There is no need for you to be proud 😂😂
As a former British soldier, I find it embarrassing that they send these clowns to interview a prestigious unit like the Gurkhas and mention them in the same sentence as Harry Potter and Hogwarts sorting hats. Sort it out.
get over yourself...
@@brillsmith2207 i would like to see you in the army 😂
calm down lmao not that big of a deal
@@chloegb2682 fr I swear most of the people that act like
have no clue about the army
@@Mert-ng1hn yeh most of them aren’t even British or common wealth 😂
It really makes me happy seeing how proud these guys are. Honestly, they're so committed and determined from Day 1. A true inspiration and sure sign that they are a force to be reconed with in the future!
As A English Man I Just Want to Thank to These Guys! You Make My Chest SWELL!!
Thank you. They are easily the only force in the world who knows how to operate in tropical climate and also winter climate like it's an everyday life.
i am proud to be gorkha li....
gorkha may be economically poor but rich in heart
its enough....for us💪💪💪💪💪
Gurkhas always make me feel happy you can sense their inner kindness and humanity shine through.
Brilliant, brave and loyal. Great to have them in the British army
Thanks
Sale hamri kuch log unki gulmi karte he nehito ek din mein tanha karke banjar banadete bhat ki army Jay bajrang bali 🙄
Such a bonus to have the Gurkha's as part of the British Army how could anyone not like them. Best of luck to all of you.
Why are we not doing more for our
Most loyal of allies?
For centuries Nepal has provided it's men when Britain called
Our aid budget worldwide is around 9 billion a year.....
Nepal received very little after its earthquake. ....and received a little more to aid abolition of human trafficking. ......
But.....
Where is the debt of honour being paid to the Nepalese people?
Surely out of our gigantic aid bill
Of 9 billion ...we could and should
Pay our debt of honour to these
Loyal and brave people.
Still parts of Nepal carry unrepaired damage from the earthquake....
Still they lack antenatal and health clinics.....still they lack all weather roads.......and still they lack
The investment they so deservedly
Have earned through their blood.
I'm ashamed of our governents
Attitude to Nepal.
Loosen the purse strings ....
These freinds deserve better.
Britain is a Caliphate now, they have to help their Islamic brothers and convert their country fully into Islam!
caractacus brittania Nepali government is ruled by brainwashed bhaun people and Indian influence is the reason to keep Nepal poor
@@mrit2022 what do you mean by "baun people"?? I don't think that Nepalese government has seats for brahmins only. I mean i know Nepalese politics is way backwards and i absolutely hate it....but you cannot point your finger to a particular caste???

Sry british people if you wanted to know ..but it was just rant agnaist that dumb guy°!!
They can hold their heads HIGH. What a FANTASTIC GROUP OF TRUE SOLDIERS ~~
What a great video, fine young blokes, a credit to themselves, the army & the whole of the Commonwealth.... Be such an honour to be part of the Brigade
These guys are true warriors always loved how hard these guys fight for us brits. Much love ❤️
Exceptional soldiers - Fearless ! Good luck lads !
Gurkha warriors, always getting the job done. Long live the Gurkha regiment.
I have, and always will have, infinite respect to these men 🙏
Much respect for the Gurka Soldier's.
They are the baddest of the bad . No disrespect my brothers in the American Armed Forces, But I would take a Company of Gurka Soldier's over a Battalion of the Infantry regards if it's the 82nd or 101st.
We love our Gurkhas in the uk, and I know we could count on lots more Gurkhas that just missed out the selection process if we needed them, but just 2,000 is not enough. We should have atleast 5,000 minimum the guys in Nepal number tens of thousands applying every year!.....
Dynamic Overlord well said mate
Do you have a problem with the Gurkhas?
@Dynamic Overlord.. Has the responsibility for the recruitment of soldiers not been handed to a civilian company? I read an article not so long ago that said thousands apply each year for the army but eventually withdraw their applications due to the long winded application process. Some are left waiting for 12 months and beyond. When I applied in the mid 80's I walked into the local recruitment office in February. By the end of April I'd completed all my assessments at Sutton Coldfield and been given a start date of July to begin basic training.
@@VentureHolly I'm guessing that not many of that number tried joining the navy then, we are desperately short. If they tried tfor the army, that makes sense, number are decent green side. Navy and RAF are both short in numbers, and really need new service personnel.
Obviously if they can't pass the interviews however, that is a different matter.
@@VentureHolly yeah, people get failed on medical for all kinds of stupid reasons. I almost got failed for having braces (joined as a kid), luckily the particular way I was joining meant I was passed through. But it is super petty, and costing too many people. It needs to be reworked before no-one passes!
The pride and happiness of these young men in achieving their dream of service ,despite the sacrifices they have endured is an example to all who serve.
I’ve been to a Gurkha base before, and there curry’s are 👌👌👌
These guys are so badass
@Grinch The what do you mean why?
@Grinch The cos they kick ass without taking names.
You don't know much If you asking why these guys are that good.
nop they r nice
Flubadubdub The Great Yeah, in ww2, they were sacrificial, willing to do anything beyond the limit of death. They are not afraid, they were fierce fighters of the entire war, even till today, they are warriors.
Gurkhas are actually handsome
Depends, many types of people in Nepal. But there are good-looking men & ugly ones everywhere. They are sharp & well dressed, though.
Outstanding!! Job well done lads!
World's smartest/handsome army force. 😎💪❤
They could teach the Paras and many others in the British Army
how to wear the beret correctly!! I am appalled by the appearance of most regiments today who wear the beret - especially the Paras. It means that senior NCOs and their platoon commanders are poorly trained themselves. They wouldn't have got away with it at Sandhurst
If you're in the UK, around Wolverhampton, there are numerous Gurkha restaurants- worth the visit.
I still talk to a Gurkha who I met in Iraq. Proud to call him a brother. Hopefully, I will be flying to visit him at Easter.
Refreshingly nice guys without attitude, welcome and good luck....
Wow, a good day for the newly recruited. Thank you, I enjoyed very much👍🙏
Much respect to these guys. Hardly anything negative can be said about them.
Bless every one of you! You and your countrymen are Britain's greatest friends and bravest comrades. We are honoured to have you march alongside us.
It's great to see Gurkhas commanded by a Gurkha. I hope it's a growing trend!
You couldn't ask for better soldiers to fight beside
Sagun Kandel salaam pakistani muhammad sour grapes for u bin laden osama
Ask for Poles Britain. British sky, Tobruk, Narvik and Monte Cassino remember how brave were Polish soldiers.
Konrad Borowski . Poles have a sad history being brutalised by soviets, by germans. Where is prussia? Is it in poland? Who are prussians are they poles or germans?
Xyz Sing Prussians were murded by teutonic order in medival ages.
Konrad Borowski nonsense. This is not what i asked. Ready my questions above
I’m also an infantryman in Canadian Armed Force since i do not have any Nepali friends in my battalion. They are lucky to have each other.
This is different than USMC. Recruit looks more calm & happy without being yelled 😅
British gurkha's selection is very hard to pass not like usmc where you go in and they help you get stronger and be able to pass you physical fitness test , they have to train on their own to meet the physical requirements and then they start their military training so most gurkha's and physically very fit and disciplined before then even start the training.
Every single one of these Gurkha soldiers are ecstatic to be in the British army. I say we should be ecstatic to have them!
Love from UK
I love that Singapore Brunei and UK respect Gurkhas and Gurkhas are being honestly royal
I was expecting the Gurkhas to shoot Harry Potter
Sagar tamang babu congratulation
Im so much happy for your journey
Goodluck to you😊❤❤
My father served alongside them in Burma in WWII. He had great respect for them.
Absolute mega blokes who deserve massive respect.
Woof they r chosen from best. Thanks God Gurkha never fights with another Gurkha. Luv from India + Nepal.
I like the smile. ..and hapinesse 👍
Respect for these young men!
During Hong Kong's colonial days, my friends and I, three women and three men in our twenties, were hiking in Sai Kung when the hell, oops sorry, when hails as big as golf balls started to fall on our bodies. We ran the hell, yes hell, with our sacks on our heads, out of the wild and onto the road. We stopped a Land Rover of the Hong Kong Garrison with Gurkhas speaking little English.
Unable to communicate much, to the horrors of the servicemen, we simply pushed our three girlfriends on board and waved them, the Gurkhas, away. After some internal communications among themselves, the Land Rover drove off, with reluctance on the Gurkhas' faces - well, understandably, they are servicemen and must be on orders to do something else.
We met our friends about two hours later and they have nothing but thanks and high praises to the Gurkhas who treated them as much as gentlemen could do in a cramped environment. The kind Gurkhas dropped them in the Sai Kung town area.
A delightful piece of memory. Thank you, Gurkhas. You are not only brave soldiers, you are also kind gentlemen when the circumstances justify.
Well done to all of you lads.👍🏼
The whole process is interesting !
Among the Best Troops in the World and They are the Most Faithful and Loyal Friendly Soldiers to Serve with .
I have the greatest respect for the Ghurkas, who have stood shoulder to shoulder with us for so long. Their service to The Crown has been exemplary.
Proud of such a group of soldiers.
proud you guys are in the British Army .... well done all
No one can say a bad thing about the Gurkhas. We're lucky to have these fierce warriors
Wow all brothers sooo talented
Proud of you..............
Wow our brothers love you guys
So motivated
Such handsome guys👍
The British public love their Gurkhas. This is just as important as their famed fighting skills as to why we still maintain our fine Gurkha regiments...
Highest respect for these guys
Thank you so much Gurkahs.
Bravest of bravest
Massive respect.
My Grandfather was in 6th Gorkha Unit at World war 2... BritainIndianArmy...🔥🕉️❤️...
Nice to see you PREM dai after a long time
Love these guys thank you, it’s a shame that we let in all the Muslims after the war and denied these people entrance
Makes my blood boil, My Dad fought with the Gurkhas in Malaysia and he told me this, If you were ever in Danger, you will not go far wrong having a Gurkha at your side, he loved them, every one of them should be given UK Citizenship, and I mean all of them, My self and 5 brothers and 2 sisters can all count in their language as that is how my Dad counted out our Pocket money lol, Great memories for me.
Lol Muslims also fought for the british army both in ww1 and ww2.
@@green_crescent the point is Gurkhas should be given more priority
All the best guys.

What a Great Peoples we are so lucky to have them...
More Gurkha videos please.
When you hear about the gurkhas the only thing you can do is give them respect
Good lads!
Does anyone know if they have a full doc instead of a few clips here and there?
Yam Rye, my old head of security, 27 years in the Brit Army, gave me his hat before he died, I will have it with me always. These fellows are great and they have big shoes to fill, hope they do as well as Yam. I miss him. ThuFrom.a Yank.
What great soldiers they are .
Well done Britton is proud of it's gurkha soliders
I wish you would show the whole training process. I’d like to see what makes these warriors tick. The grit and the grime, not just fluff and kindness.
Good luck!
Greetings from your homeland Nepal !
Hail! Nepal !!!

Proud of the Gurkhas, as a future Indian army Officer , i have utmost respect for the Gurkhas and their age old traditions.
Jai Hnd.
Jai Nepal.
God save the glorious queen.
Good lads, I hope they got the choices they wanted. Best wishes to them.
The training officers really care about their recruits of this clearly shows through
God bless our Gurkhas x
Very very great job
fantastico Gurkhas... with love and respect from Vietnam, allahu akhbar.
Major respect to you guys the gurkas.
This is so true when going through recruit training. You sit aptitude tests and then are ranked and that score allows you to "choose" what Corps you would like to go to, however if say you want to go to Armoured Corps, but the next School of Armour training course doesn't start for 6 months after you march out of training - you will get shafted to another Corps like Infantry or Artillery etc. That is how it worked when I was in the Australian Army. I know guys that wanted certain jobs but got shafted to Ordnance or Artillery or Catering/Cook.....Sucks.
He is.my friend sagar tamang ..good job
Very proud of our Gurka Brothers. Proud to have served along side them.
Form a British Veteran
Barvest of the brave is my gorkha solider in the world
respect army brothers .
they look brilliant and we as british should be so proud of them and what they have done in wars as allies and for us fearsome worriers .
