The terrorist thought they could simply get away with it and if they didn't they thought nothing would happen to them as they thought the British govt was soft and weak but they didn't expect this, tall scary men in black with gas masks, it looks like something from a horror movie, seriously, it must of been a horrible and terrifying experience for the terrorists
The moral of this story is don't fuck with the UK & when terrorists come to this country and they kill people, they're gonna end up in a box. We all like a peaceful life, but to have it we need men & organisations like the SAS to keep a lid on such threats to those. Sometimes direct action is imperative for that very reason. God bless the SAS!
Police Constable Trevor Lock actually had a gun on him during the entire siege. He wouldn't stand a chance against guys with machine guns, so he hid it and waited for the best moment to use it. When the SAS attacked, he pulled out his gun and went after the leader. When the SAS came into the room, the leader couldn't shoot them because he was too busy fighting. Trevor Lock dove to the side so the SAS could get a clear shot. He was awarded the George Medal for his bravery.
No he was shot by mutliple people at the same time. Other documentaries are more detailed with the troops interviewed. Their torches alined and fired accordingly. All of them fired on him not just one. That's where 76 comes from.
@jinkjack how can you say going into a building, taking out most of the terrorists except 1 and making sure that all the hostages were safe was easy, the Americans did a mission like that and they'll throw grenades into the room where the hostages are, not trying to save them. Of course Bravo Two Zero was easy, they were the S.A.S. American forces would have surrended after they saw the enemy.
Now that is how the world should deal with these assholes... not only muslim but any who try this shit! 76 holes in his body now that is all verification of clear resistance and he deseve every one of them. GOD BLESS!
@sgtkiko yeah there was a hearing after and they accused a member of the sas of brutality! when asked "why did you shoot him so many times?" the soldier replied "the magazine ran out!!"
ha ha ha what overkill you fucking millitant islamist scumbags hey phillipinos take a few lessons from some commandos hey maybe theyll take coke money
@brachieboo Why do you think that? Don t you realize those people the SAS shot were trying to force the govt to re impose the original western govt in Iran? Dont you get it? They were against the theocratic regime that just took power. Your all brainwashed..... do you even get the message
If the situation calls for 'the final solutioin' - a.ka calling in Spec Ops, if you're a terrorist, you are not coming out alive. That simple folks. Why waste anymore time with them. They made their bed, they can sleep in it! Also sends a good message to any future terrorist not to fuck with us!
BTW all SAS personnel now have a 3 inch knife attached to the top left of their assault vests just because of the incident where the grappling SAS member got stuck. At least they bother to learn from their mistakes.
@jinkjack What? the afghan terrorists, the ira, the iraq army ect ect were all amatuers compared to a properly trained army, but give some one a machine gun or hand gun and it matters not how well trained they are, they become very dangerous, how can you say it was easy? spend 2 weeks in an enviroment with a weapon, it will take skill and judgement to take you out.
@AnglOsAxOn2 The terrorists were surrendering when they were killed. They had actually thrown their weapons out the window. You can't get much easier than unarmed and poorly motivated terrorists.
It was undoubtly a totally sucessfull mission, but the fact that 1 terrorist was shot 76 times isn't at least unprofessional? It seems like SAS was taking it personal, going for revenge, instead of "tactical neutralization" (or whatever)
@leoholsbach - True, but when you consider that Special forces are told to shoot two bursts into the chest and one to the head, and that the guns they were using fire 10 rounds per second....that's at least 30 right there. Now, if two troopers were to fire on an enemy at once, I reckon that'd do it. Just a thought, obvs it may not have gone down like that at all! :)
@Jamies2111 you do realise he was a fucking terrorists and deserved every bullet he got. are you trying to tell me i should feel bad for him? and i couldn't give a shit what morals you have about things that happen in 'real life'. keep them to yourself.
The SAS enforces both written & unspoken rules. YOU DON'T F**K WITH THE BRITISH GOVT. The very moment bastard muslim terrorists start killing innocent civilians, the govt has every right to kill every one of them. Surrendering was no longer an option once they started killing a civilian! The terrorists simply sealed their fate! So f**k the controversy!
@joeheng80 They werent muslims they were freedom fighters that were trying to oppose the overthrow of the Shah who was Westernized himself. Godamn you are all so damn dumb. Do you even realize the American govt. is in the process of doing what these people were fighting for, which is the removal of the theocratic regime in Iran. Jesus your all such idiots. Its sickening. Not just you but all these comments. Its just pathetic, dont any of you see the govt has its boot on your neck.
@sysopkc they chose to take and kill hostages, so they became targets at that very moments, it doesnt matter what where they fighting for, it matters what they did.
@joeheng80 i understand what you are saying but why do you have to indicate that the terrorists are muslim. the terrorists in that was eliminiated during the nimrod operation was anit muslim ragime in iran. not all terrorists are muslims. as a brit i will not tolerate any terrorists with in our land, but branding terrorists is not right. muslim, christian, jewish, or even buddist, religion in not the part of terrorism.
bullshit...they r not stupid enough to shot one guy 76 times.....SAS know how and when to shot, they would not waste such amount of bullets on a dead body, if You tell me they were angry, I will tell you they are Professionals!
The SAS are a military unit and are therefore not bound by the constraints placed on civilian law enforcement. The terrorists executed one hostage, threatened the rest with same, and tried to kill the remainder once the assault commenced. The terrorist in the stairwell had a grenade on his person. In such a situation there is no time for such nicities as a fair trial. The terrorists could have ended this thing any time they wanted to by surrendering but they didn't they chose their fate.
One of the SAS troopers said, the whole thing was a message, that if you come to Britian and do this, you won't go home, which is why they wanted to execute the last terrorist but a superior stopped them because of the media watching. Apparently when they questioned one trooper in the inquest asking why one terrorist had been shot 76 times he replied 'Because I ran out of bullets.'
to the OP, the S.A.S. do have permission to execute those posing a threat to the operation, despite the killing of shai and makki, they were authorized to eliminate the threat and liberate the hostages.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The whole point of Britain being a great nation is because everyone is allowed a fair trial in court, so surely it shouldn't be up to an SAS man with a gun to make split second decisions on who lives & who dies? i mean how would they even know whos a terrorist when they're running around, under gun fire & darkness mixed with hostages? If the terrorist is about to shoot or use a grenade then thats understandable, but if hes hiding then y not arrest him & put him on trial? isn't this uncivilised?
@pashizeh it seems they did manage to discover all the terrorists, and did so without shooting any hostages, as well as leaving one of the terrorists alive and arresting him. these guys train for hours every day to do this, soo i think they can be trusted.
i read some were the only reason that one terrorist lived was because the hostages saved hes life thay covered him up when the sas came in to kill him .. the reason why thay done that was because he treated them good ..is there any truth to that ?
@leemeires well i think the main reason was that one SAS member started to drag the terrorist back inside to shoot him but another member said dont do it as your live on TV.and that was said coming from a SAS member in a documentry.
Oh please, you cause trouble like this you get whats coming.
If I was the hostage who had been in there for days on end under threat of being killed - if the SAS came in and asked me what I'd like to do - I'd say "shoot the bastards"
The right thing was done - and it was done very well.
@pashizeh i dont want to start a stupid online argument but we gave them 5 days to negotiate and have a fair trial lol. then they killed 2 people so we had to up the ante.
they were ordered to kill them all, thatcher gave the order to make an example, a show of force to the world showing the UK wont tolerate it.
no terrorists were supposed to come out alive, the one that did pretended to be a hostage, the hostages pointed him out to be a terrorist and the SAS started taking him back inside to eliminate him but were told to back down as the world media was watching.
@pashizeh thats why they are called sas soldiers matey and not civilians, these men are trained to a standard you cannot even imagine to be possible, they know exactly what is what in these situations its their lives. when the sas are called in to deal with terrorists, those terrorists better expert their worst nightmares. the moto is who dares wins. this clip shows you that moto in action. they dare and they win every time. these men will fight to the last man.
If the SAS are called in its to eliminate not take prisoners. They can tell who the terrorists are because this is what they are trained for, they dont crack under pressure and even in this situation they keep a level head.
@pashizeh STFU pshizeh, they were authorized to do so by the british govt. As soon as the op was handed over to the military, the terrorists became enemy combatants, and were eliminated as an example to all those who thought to try that bs again.
@pissflap,,ya right m8 he was gunna wack him alrite and would have if the cameras wernt there,,but i remember they picked him up and started to walk back to the embassy to wack him there but then they noticed they were being filmed,,,he served 27 yrs in jail thou
theres helicopter footage of the rear of the embassy, after some of the hostage takers tried to hide amongst the hostages, you see an trooper with a hostage going along a line of people laid down, pointing at one of them, you then see the SAS trooper put a boot on the indicated mans back, and raise his gun to the firing point, only for another trooper to tap him on the shoulder and point to the helicopter, causing him to halt the execution.. the Iron lady aparently told them face to face>
@JanineRobin no ideally it would have been better to capture them and try to glean more information from them? bit I guess in the heat of the moment it's not safe to take a pow with you
The general SAS doctrine with terrorism, especially is a case like this when the terrorists are not willing to negotiate and are ready to kill hostages is not to aim at arresting them. It was simply about eliminating the terrorist threat swift and precise. Added with the adrenaline rush brought by combat situation, you really can't avoid situations like this. For what comes to this operation, it could've turned out way worse than it did.
I agree, when you call in the SAS the time of surrender is over. They murdered innocent people and now that all hell is being unleashed upon them they wish to "surrender". Just like the terrorist who "surrendered" to then try and detonate a hand grenade while being extracted by the SAS with the rest of the hostages.
You don't call in the SAS to police a situation you call them in to destroy the enemy quickly, efficiently, and without mercy to save innocent lives.
76 times! That means that either 4 guys empied their clips into one guy. Or they stopped to reload to shoot an obviously dead guy. No one would live past 1 clip from a HKMP5.
Actually, after the raid, the "sleeper" terrorist hiding amongst the hostages was identified, and one SAS trooper was about to take him back inside the embassy to be shot, but the other guys told him not to, because the world's media was watching.
When the SAS are called in, they don't take prisoners.
.............every sas tropper has a mp5 with a toch light attach to it and he called the gun hecklers and cock. cock ?????? i thought it was suppose to be kouck and they would not use so many rounds on a person they would use 2 shot otherwise known as the double tap
You're right about the double tap, if you put 14 bullets in one guy how you going to kill the other 4... Remakes are accurate and are always made more movie-like.
The SAS don't take prisoner's in a CT operation. Its protocol. fuglyno1 is correct albeit a big gruff! Once the SAS are given the go ahead your time on this Earth is coming to an end. Regardless of wether you surrender or not! Only one was taken alive to extract information. If you don't want to die! Don't take hostages in the UK!
Holy mother mary and Josef 76 times! Thats mean empty a mp5 30round clip into him, reload, empty another one, reload, and then empty another half a mag into him. Or offcourse 3 guys next to each other unloading into the terrorist
Got to love Operation Nimrod. A prime example of when they don't fuck around. Shooting the 'terrorists' on the spot whether they were armed or not instead of being like wussy children having to be nice. Action gets stuff done. Might be the wrong thing sometimes, but at least it produces result.
76 times!!!!!!!!! hahahahahhahahhahha it looks like they turned him into minced meat
the way i see it these musies hate us all so why do we have to be nice fuck them just cause they are a minority they should be the ones keepin their heads down fuckin pricks
Thought they were exaggerating on this doc with the 'over the top' shooting but its seems a guy was shot 76 times lol ownage. And you could call that unprofessional but we in the UK call that badass, and so do the forensic teams that inspected their weapons!
only 1 hostage died in this seige, and it was there first hostage rescue mission so they didnt realy no wot they were doin, so they just followed there training
This was the first hostage rescue operation of it's kind ever. After this the British SAS were on high demand from allies around the world.... seems the rest of the world doesn't agree with your "expert" opinion that "the SAS did a shitty" job.
hey 'Shit OnZionism', classy name by the way! iff you think the SAS did a crap job. how in your 'expert' opinion, did the EGYPTIAN 'Force 777',do in Sept 1985 when they caused the deaths of 57 hostages during the assault on EGYPT AIR flight 648 in MALTA? the stupid bastards fired on escaping passengers outside the plane!! the ISRAELI'S at ENTEBBE,GERMANY' GSG-9 at MOGADISHU, FRANCE'S GIGN in DJIBOUTI,THE ROYAL DUTCH MARINES in HOLLAND and 22ndSAS. they all made mistakes and still WON!!
and for the record, why should any foreign power waste it's time murdering any IRAQI or AFGHAN? innocent or otherwise! the TALIBAN and Saddam's ex-henchmen have been doing a good job of it themselves for year's!! so EAT a POUND OF PIGSHIT and go FUCK YOURSELF!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Sad to see western propaganda brainwashing people time and again and such ignorance
the narrator doesn't mention that the victims were Iranian not the other way around
The Iranian Embassy Siege of 1980 was a siege of the Iranian embassy in London after it had been taken over by Arab separatists
Iran has not been involved in any terrorist act nor has it ever been a threat to a country but on the contrary been the victim of such acts repeatedly throughout history.
After the terrorist with the grenade was killed, he dropped the grenade. One of the SAS troopers actually dived onto the grenade in case it was armed, so his body would absorb most of the blast if it went off.
The terorists must of bricked it hardcore. I think only one of them put up a small fight as opposed to the others trying to hide and getting shot lol

After reading some of the comments posted allow me to clarify.
Control of a incident has to be handed over officially by the senior police commander before the SAS CT team can be sent in for an assault.
This usually comprises of a written note signed by the PIC.Once the assault has ended control is then handed back to the police for cleanup.
In regards to the "76 rounds" who gives a fuck. The guy was holding a grenade. "If they're worth shooting once, they're worth shooting 76 times".

@pashizeh it seems they did manage to discover all the terrorists, and did so without shooting any hostages, as well as leaving one of the terrorists alive and arresting him. these guys train for hours every day to do this, soo i think they can be trusted.

i read some were the only reason that one terrorist lived was because the hostages saved hes life thay covered him up when the sas came in to kill him .. the reason why thay done that was because he treated them good ..is there any truth to that ?

@leemeires I've never heard that and i doubt it. all the hostages get cuffed anyway, so i'm not sure that would even be possible.
blanksight 1 year ago
@leemeires well i think the main reason was that one SAS member started to drag the terrorist back inside to shoot him but another member said dont do it as your live on TV.and that was said coming from a SAS member in a documentry.

Oh please, you cause trouble like this you get whats coming.
If I was the hostage who had been in there for days on end under threat of being killed - if the SAS came in and asked me what I'd like to do - I'd say "shoot the bastards"
The right thing was done - and it was done very well.

@pashizeh i dont want to start a stupid online argument but we gave them 5 days to negotiate and have a fair trial lol. then they killed 2 people so we had to up the ante.

pashizeh.
they were ordered to kill them all, thatcher gave the order to make an example, a show of force to the world showing the UK wont tolerate it.
no terrorists were supposed to come out alive, the one that did pretended to be a hostage, the hostages pointed him out to be a terrorist and the SAS started taking him back inside to eliminate him but were told to back down as the world media was watching.

@pashizeh thats why they are called sas soldiers matey and not civilians, these men are trained to a standard you cannot even imagine to be possible, they know exactly what is what in these situations its their lives. when the sas are called in to deal with terrorists, those terrorists better expert their worst nightmares. the moto is who dares wins. this clip shows you that moto in action. they dare and they win every time. these men will fight to the last man.

If the SAS are called in its to eliminate not take prisoners. They can tell who the terrorists are because this is what they are trained for, they dont crack under pressure and even in this situation they keep a level head.

@pashizeh STFU pshizeh, they were authorized to do so by the british govt. As soon as the op was handed over to the military, the terrorists became enemy combatants, and were eliminated as an example to all those who thought to try that bs again.

theres helicopter footage of the rear of the embassy, after some of the hostage takers tried to hide amongst the hostages, you see an trooper with a hostage going along a line of people laid down, pointing at one of them, you then see the SAS trooper put a boot on the indicated mans back, and raise his gun to the firing point, only for another trooper to tap him on the shoulder and point to the helicopter, causing him to halt the execution.. the Iron lady aparently told them face to face>

@JanineRobin ''No plan survives battle''
The general SAS doctrine with terrorism, especially is a case like this when the terrorists are not willing to negotiate and are ready to kill hostages is not to aim at arresting them. It was simply about eliminating the terrorist threat swift and precise. Added with the adrenaline rush brought by combat situation, you really can't avoid situations like this. For what comes to this operation, it could've turned out way worse than it did.
BattleRatProductions 1 year ago
@BattleRatProductions
I agree, when you call in the SAS the time of surrender is over. They murdered innocent people and now that all hell is being unleashed upon them they wish to "surrender". Just like the terrorist who "surrendered" to then try and detonate a hand grenade while being extracted by the SAS with the rest of the hostages.
You don't call in the SAS to police a situation you call them in to destroy the enemy quickly, efficiently, and without mercy to save innocent lives.

Actually, after the raid, the "sleeper" terrorist hiding amongst the hostages was identified, and one SAS trooper was about to take him back inside the embassy to be shot, but the other guys told him not to, because the world's media was watching.
When the SAS are called in, they don't take prisoners.

The SAS don't take prisoner's in a CT operation. Its protocol. fuglyno1 is correct albeit a big gruff! Once the SAS are given the go ahead your time on this Earth is coming to an end. Regardless of wether you surrender or not! Only one was taken alive to extract information. If you don't want to die! Don't take hostages in the UK!

The terrorists were members of Saddam backed MEK. A bunch of loosers who only managed to kill a number of innocent people for absolutelly no reason.
You know MEK, don't you? The same group now headquartered in France and taken off the terrorist list by the British Government.
Also, the SAS did a shitty job. They made many many stupid blunders, and got many hostages killed due to their utter stupidity.
The SAS and their Snipers should stick to murdering innocent Iraqi and Afghanies.

Sad to see western propaganda brainwashing people time and again and such ignorance
the narrator doesn't mention that the victims were Iranian not the other way around
The Iranian Embassy Siege of 1980 was a siege of the Iranian embassy in London after it had been taken over by Arab separatists
Iran has not been involved in any terrorist act nor has it ever been a threat to a country but on the contrary been the victim of such acts repeatedly throughout history.

After the terrorist with the grenade was killed, he dropped the grenade. One of the SAS troopers actually dived onto the grenade in case it was armed, so his body would absorb most of the blast if it went off.
