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

@KeirenScott I didn't know that, will look it up, thanks!

You get a totall sense of humility and honesty

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.

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.

@KeirenScott

He always sounded like an officer to me, when you hear the likes of eddie stone and john mac talk they are a lot more NCO-ish then Chris

@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.

[british123able]

corporal in the sas, can you imagine being a field marshal in the sas lol, fucking terminators would do a 180 and sprint forever

@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.

@MrQuinnLUFC Really? Mahatma Gandi hept me going whan I did my service.

@XIPM3

you could try learning to spell hairy correctly please, your display of your ill educated mind at work at a keyboard offends me as after all you speak OUR language.

[casualchauncey]

@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
