@british123able There's no field marshal in the entire Army, let alone the SAS. What's more, it's the Sergeants and Warrant Officers, the boys with heaps of operational experience that you'd be afraid of.
@xStealth you ve got to be having a laugh if you think U.S military of any kind let alone special forces are superior to British special forces. never mind the high ups decisions and the costing/funding from the relevant goverment departments the British special forces and intelligience services are the best in the world. They re a blueprint to what most other countires have modelled themselves on
@casualchauncey I´ve heard so many different nationalitys saying they got the toughest and best soldiers in the world. A Finnish guy told me that their rangers trained the SAS and navy seals. There is no way to compare special op forces with each other.
Most people who serve in such units do so in obscurity, there's no money to be made and sometimes decades before they can even mention their past..........but they all play their part!
Did anyone ever see the "Hunting Chris Ryan" series where they got some ex-navy seals and royal marines to hunt him down like a dog over various terrains?
Although its shitty that it happened, im happy to hear the whole Chris v Andy thing was a jornalistic wank. I thought it might have been but wasnt sure. I just couldnt imagine a group of profesionals bickering like school kids during a patrol.
And genuineness in this guy. And he's just answering questions and doing it with a professional type demeanor. He's clearly not a showboat Hollywood wanna be he seems like he's just trying to make an Honest living by do what he likes doing to do.
@totaldramaislanda It is odd, Price is voiced by a Londoner (at the least a southerner) and Ryan is from the North East along the road from Newcastle.
andy mcnab commanded B20 chris ryan was a patrol member and walked a fair distance on his won drinking contaminated water and making it safely across the syrian border mcnab and 3 others got captured and 3 men died
@joninyt Im adressing both comments you made here, firstly, looks can be decieving, he is ex-sas and trust me when i say, he will kill you bare handed within seconds, just like any other Speacil forces members can. And war/killing is evil? Depends on the perspective, would you say taking down the Nazi's was evil? And by looking at your profile and the hate comments you have, such as you being called a racist, leaves me to believe your a troll, and your comments now mean shit.
@xUK91x firstly...do you really think special forces bother much with unarmed training these days? i dont think so...any seasoned kickboxer who trains 2 to 3 hours a day would snap these guys!!! look at him...he was fucking fat man...sure hes older now and maybe doesnt train as much...just because your in special forces doesnt make you the meanest guy to walk the planet thats bullshit...they have there specialties...oh and up yours!!!
@joninyt wow, your ignorance is appaling, kickboxers would break within hours if they went through the training these guys do without any previous experience within the military. The selection process for speacil forces is 0.1% of all who apply. While anyone can train to be a kickboxer. The simple fact you just compared a kickboxer to a speacil service soldier who has seen more horrors, dealt with situatuations that a kick boxer will never face, shows how much of a troll you are.
@joninyt and you say they don't bother with unarmed training? wrong, yes they do, matter of fact they even have experts who help with unarmed and knife training, and kickboxer trains 2-3 hours a day? Try looking up some SAS training vids, they have a building called the killhouse which they spend up to 10 hours a day practicing killing. Yer, try putting a kickboxer against a fully trained SAS servicemen, lets see who wins. Whats your defintion of a 'badass' then?
@xUK91x and special "armed" forces deal with unarmed training all day.bullshit man,you been watching too much rambo / commando movies! the only special forces who i would fear regarding "unarmed combat" is the israelis as there krav maga proved pretty effective, but still on the world stage it didnt perform too well!!! Special forces are soldiers.soldiers use guns, work it out!!! my definition of a badass.hmmm lets see.i would think Barrington Patterson.he would break any SF,except Sam Fisher...
@joninyt did i say they spend all day with unarmed training? no. But its fact they train in unarmed and knife combat given from experts from around the globe, thats fact. And no i havent watched too many rambo movies, imho opionion rambo is shit. And soldiers? use guns? No shit!, and Speacil forces also deal in unarmed training! Seriously, you obviously have something against the SAS so you will bad mouth and spread shit as much as you can, so for the sake of youtube, go suicide troll.
@xUK91x look i respect what the SAS is and what it does...but i think they are seen by the public as these spooks in the night who are like ninjas!!! i have friends in SADF special forces and they have both been fucked up in street situations!!! nobody is untouchable and nobody is that deadly is all im saying...i have nothing against the SAS, just tired of all the poms going "they the only thing that makes me proud to be british" what a lot of shite!!!
@joninyt i never said that though, anyone who says this is the only thing that makes them proud to be British are either 9 year olds or total idiots with no recollection of their own history. Just your first comment rubbed me (and most definately other people) up wrong with the attitude, as if it was directed at the SAS themselves.
when was this interview actually filmed? must have been yearrrrrrrrrrrs ago? and also who gives a shit if he wrote a book about his experiences I'm fucking glad he did because its immense to know what king of lads we have in our special forces and get an idea of what they can really do, anyone who slags of the SAS clearly have no brain and would do better off being bombed cheers.
this is the other prick ! me thinks ,that seen his ex mate was making a ton of money , andy mc nob ,so had to right a book and cash in , bunch of wankers ,killing people for a wage packet an trying to make out they are heros
Yeah real funny mate, but actually they were heroes. Read Bravo Two Zero and then see if you can slag them off. You will see why they are called the best Secret Service in the World.
@MrRoss12341234 heros ? so whats heroic ,about going half way around the world to kill brown people in sandals FOR MONEY , and oil companies ,you have a very confused opinion of what a hero is , some how i doubt you have ever had your door kicked in at four in the morning and dragged out of bed ,and beatin simpley for being born in the wrong country,... nah , what da fuck would you know ,your just mind controlled drone ,that cant think for him or her self ,so go back to sleep you sheep bahaha:)
@MrRoss12341234 your birth certificate may say you were popped out in 81 ,but have you learnt anything in the meantime ,dopey ,so tell me this ,who do you think has more balls , some ex borstal boy waste of space that joins an army for money to kill people ,for scumbags in suits and oil companies ,or the the other guy ,i dont think you've really thought about this have you ,..you silly pup you :)
Soldiers don't get to choose the policies. They choose to serve.
However if you did want to make a moral argument about it. The liberation of Kuwait was something worth fighting for. Keeping SCUDs out of Israel was an integral part of that.
@jocksmen He probably enjoyed writing stories before he joined the SAS. So then he wrote some stories about his experiences. I don't know because I don't know how I would feel if I was in the SAS.
@jocksmen i wonder that but chris ryan and a lot of ex sas members write books about there expirences and make survival documentrys about it then it just starts from there
In the description you have named him as a Former 'Corporal'. Chris Ryan actually ended Service as a Sergeant. Minor Error. But thanks for the video :D
Yeah Chris is definitely a switched on fella, there's a lot of guys who get to that stage where they have the chance to become Officers but choose not too. I'm not saying that Chris was offered the chance, but I reckon if he stayed in the Service for the duration of his ability to do so, he could be knocking on Captain or Major now, I've seen it happen. However, he did trek 190miles across a desert and consumed Nuclear waste. No guessing that can affect a man mentally in a major way.
@210357tommy Hello, McNab as far as I am aware has never shown his face, kind of kills your argument right there.Wanted by extremists, thats like saying the ice cream man wants 3 pence back for giving you an extra hundred and thousand. I love reading negative comments like yours, it makes me laugh because I know your sat behind your p.c nice and comfy and could never achieve what they did.
@AnglOsAxOn2 as far as you are aware?so that kills your argument.secondly you do not know, or will never know what i have achieved,in or out of service.
Chris Ryans a ledge and all that, but he is nothing compared to Blair Mayne, the first commanding officer of the SAS. For those of you who havent heard of him check out: SAS Legend part 1
@chriscafolla chris ryan is the reincarnation of blair main same soul different body , so you can see he is indeed as great as paddy main, in fact paddy and chris and david stirling are all multipul incarnations of the same soul, david stirlings soul has had 8 incarnations in the sas alone not to mention all his other lives, he is also the reincarnation of king leonidas, and willima wallace and genghis khan the ultimate soldier
what a guy , he is an absoulte brill soildier! i would b proud 2 call myself CHRIS RYAN ! the mission was a fuk up right from the start and the film "the one that got away" is alot of fiction! Andy Mcnab is a sell out! trator bastard , seems he is on the TV all the time now, must be in it 4 the money the cunt!! well done CHRIS RYAN , proud as fuck 2 have a man like him in our country's most elite fighting force!! WELL DONE !
both Ryan and McNab's account of B-2-0 are full of shit, according to fellow patrol member Mike Coburn, the Kiwi, and Michael Asher, who went to Iraq to track the story of B-2-0. I still however have huge amounts of respect for both of them, as just being in the SAS makes you as nails as it gets.
well mate. blame andy mcnab. christ ryan told the whole truth of his experience. he never said anything about some large fire fight. plus ashner was in iraq obviously followed by iraqi special police and he had farmers and iraqi military propaganda men tell him nothing mcnab said was true. who would u believe?
@CHANNELOMD there was mistakes but this was because of a desperate situation, they had no comms in iraq, which ultimately led to the mission being fucked up from the start. it was just a case of survival, the objectives no longer required. the boy done good
In the one that got away the implication was that Ryan made many mistakes and ultimately this mission was a failure,any thoughts,I mean real thoughts not knee jerk hell yeah pish
actually bravo two zero wasnt a failure. those 8 men werent the only men involved. the regiment wouldnt send just eight men to destroy 46 SCUDS. they had about 1400 or something in iraq behind enemy lines. bravo two zero was made up from four full squadrons and they completed the mission. just these 8 guys under the scenario they were in had to abort mission and get to saftey anyway they could.
you know, when i first saw an SAS member it wasnt what i expected, like John Mcaleese, i thought... nah he cant be SAS... he looked like a guy who'd sit in a pub all day drinking! but all respect to them, they deserve it.
give out important details! i hope your proud to have relations with ryan that is something to be proud of but keep in mind chris ryan isnt his actual name as you'll know. so please dont say more. cause theres a reason he uses chris ryan as a name
@qwertyuiopdan1 yeh yeh..hed wipe the floor with you...you would cry like a fucking baby mate if you were getting fired at my dozens of iraqis...these guys are cool , calm and collected..hike for 100 or 200 ks..your a loud mouth soft as shit fucking pussy,.... some of the quiet shy people are the deadliest...put his uniform on live in a jungle with him..mentally your as soft as a kid...these guys training are savage....bye bye boy
At 3:11 He says ''i travel to some shitty places in the world like Colombia'' Hmm?. It will be intresting to know,what was the porpoused for him to be there in the first place?.
in poland you have to be a platoon leader ( 5th rank from the bottom) ( i dont know how to say it in english, but i think its a platoon leader) to even be invited to the selection to grom. platoon leader its actually not an officer rank yet, so i was wrong. but you cant even go to the selection if youre a corporal. and this man WAS in sas and hes still a caporal. so i think you will not become an officer if you pass the selection.
he's an 'SAS corporal.' don't u think it would be slightly strange/confusing if everyone in that regiment was an ranked as officer? wats the point of s ranking system if everyone is going to be the same rank?
@jerseyy No, maybe not, but how is training in Poland today? Is it still based on the old ComBloc system where enlisted men were only allowed to follow their officers' orders? How does it measure up to what the average NATO soldier learns?
@bluecollarcanuck polish army is 100% professional today. not that long time ago every man after finishing high school had to go to army for a year. so the army was made up with idiots. today only an elite joins the army. its very hard to sign up. the army is pretty small (100 000) and they dont need many more new soldiers. there are many people who want to join however. thats why we have a hard selection even for privates. its really well trained army. small but very well trained.
@bluecollarcanuck we use a lot of old stuff. aks 74 or ak47 are still main weapon. kto rosomak - this is the main apc used in polish army today. i dont know english for it. type rosomak in google and you'll see. everything is decent in polish army today. the only thing that really sucks is navy . we dont have any modern ships. just old stuff. but were building few new stealth corvets right now. first is going to be ready in 2015
to all the people who knock him - Chris Ryan is No 1 soldier. If you cant cut it? dont comment on a great soldier. This man proved himself on his feet! Could you?
@dieforsouljim When you retired you often stop doing your daly military training! I ´ve experienced my self! I´ll bet he is at about 60% of his capability or something! And no I was not in the Norwegian SAS but our edge unit fomed as a the Arctic rangers! The Uranium bullet of Europe!!!!!!!!!!!!
6:07 is what has effectively happened, with shi'ite militias and politial parties i charge. democracy has fucked it up for the west. the sunni insurgencies will continue fighting as the usgay are there, and they see shi'ites as usgay lovers, even though they love iran too. shi'ite and sunnis didnt kill each other so much before western intervention
fuck these overrated bums, they're full of shit! they never tell you how many die or fail like in bravo 2 zero. the izzedin al qassam brigades are the elite counter terrorist foprce in the world as they are more resouceful, and are fighting the best equipped terrorists in the world
Boring, is repeating and parroting everything I say all you can do now? Exhausted your repetoire of insults have we? Pathetic! I know that it is infair having a battle of wits with cretinous no hopers like you....you have no ammunition!
exactly and precisely what i think,i mean he covered 100 miles on foot ,without any support,man these people who wrote these snarky couldn't even cover 4 miles in a fucking war zone
exactly, it's probablt the most dangerous profession in the world working in the Sa, WHEN THERE GUYS RETIRER, AFTER WHAT THEY'VE SEEN IN THEIR LIVES, THEY NEED SOMETHING LIKE WRITING BOOKS, OR TRAINING OTHERS TO MAINTAIN LIFE AND NOT GO MAD! Fair play to Chris, seems like a really nice guy too.
From a woman's point of view- Who really cares which one of you boys can pee the highest - Chris Ryan is georgeous, has one hell of a sexy voice and the most fantastic eyes I have ever seen.
This bloke labelled Bear Grylls as a bullshit artist and yet it has been proven that his "Bravo Two Zero" account was greatly exaggerated. What a tosser..... hahahahaha
Well at least he is not a yellow bastard like you! Shout the odds from 3000 miles and when I get the chance of mick slapping you, you run and hide! Typical mickroach filth, yellow to the core!!
He didn't abandon his friend, they got split up, just like Ryan, Stan & Vince got split up from the other 5, he went bak to look but couldn't find him. they were 100s of miles behind enemy lines, with barely any food or water, bein hunted by 1000s of Iraqi soldiers, no comms to HQ, with clothes for "spring day in the UK" when they were actually facing near arctic conditions, cos of the circumstances couldn't spend more than the couple of hours he did spend looking
he used to work with andy mcNab.. hes superior in Iraq.. as a squad called Bravo Two Zero.. kinda sad bob consiglio (one if his friends as well as squad mate) died....
McNab says Bob Consiglio should've been awarded the VC posthumously for what he did, covered the other guys retreat till his ammo ran out at which point he got shot.
@greyvoid - here's a link to the official honour list that shows all military awards & honours such such OBE/CBE/MBE, i'd forgotten Steve 'legs' lane had also been given the MM
lo n d o n - g a z e t t e . c o . uk / i s s ue s / a l l = r o b e r t + c on s i g l i o / s t ar t = 1
I think what ex and current SAS operatives talk about is up to them to a certain extent. I dont think there is much they arn't allowed to talk about, although I would imagine there is some things.
he was honerably discharged because his muscle tone had wasted away from the 190 mile trek

Yeah Chris is definitely a switched on fella, there's a lot of guys who get to that stage where they have the chance to become Officers but choose not too. I'm not saying that Chris was offered the chance, but I reckon if he stayed in the Service for the duration of his ability to do so, he could be knocking on Captain or Major now, I've seen it happen. However, he did trek 190miles across a desert and consumed Nuclear waste. No guessing that can affect a man mentally in a major way.

@210357tommy Hello, McNab as far as I am aware has never shown his face, kind of kills your argument right there.Wanted by extremists, thats like saying the ice cream man wants 3 pence back for giving you an extra hundred and thousand.

both Ryan and McNab's account of B-2-0 are full of shit, according to fellow patrol member Mike Coburn, the Kiwi, and Michael Asher, who went to Iraq to track the story of B-2-0. I still however have huge amounts of respect for both of them, as just being in the SAS makes you as nails as it gets.

@CHANNELOMD there was mistakes but this was because of a desperate situation, they had no comms in iraq, which ultimately led to the mission being fucked up from the start. it was just a case of survival, the objectives no longer required. the boy done good

actually bravo two zero wasnt a failure. those 8 men werent the only men involved. the regiment wouldnt send just eight men to destroy 46 SCUDS. they had about 1400 or something in iraq behind enemy lines. bravo two zero was made up from four full squadrons and they completed the mission. just these 8 guys under the scenario they were in had to abort mission and get to saftey anyway they could.

in poland you have to be a platoon leader ( 5th rank from the bottom) ( i dont know how to say it in english, but i think its a platoon leader) to even be invited to the selection to grom. platoon leader its actually not an officer rank yet, so i was wrong. but you cant even go to the selection if youre a corporal. and this man WAS in sas and hes still a caporal. so i think you will not become an officer if you pass the selection.

@bluecollarcanuck polish army is 100% professional today. not that long time ago every man after finishing high school had to go to army for a year. so the army was made up with idiots. today only an elite joins the army. its very hard to sign up. the army is pretty small (100 000) and they dont need many more new soldiers. there are many people who want to join however. thats why we have a hard selection even for privates. its really well trained army. small but very well trained.

@bluecollarcanuck we use a lot of old stuff. aks 74 or ak47 are still main weapon. kto rosomak - this is the main apc used in polish army today. i dont know english for it. type rosomak in google and you'll see. everything is decent in polish army today. the only thing that really sucks is navy . we dont have any modern ships. just old stuff. but were building few new stealth corvets right now. first is going to be ready in 2015
