Snipers are the military's master marksmen. Their job, in theory, is simple - to not be seen and take the deadly shot at any distance. But staying hidden is a skill in itself, taking patience, stealth and camouflage. In the first of a series our 'Sniper School' series, we see how soldiers learn to become invisible to the enemy as they attempt to become sniper instructors.

Where does the seminal educational film "How Not To Be Seen" fit into this?
So there's a ghillie suit for the summer and one for winter.
What about formal occasions?
Why has this comment not blown up
🤣
@@coreyg670 I'm totally unappreciated by my time :D
Then they wear a black ghilli suit and tie
Tactical
clearly some snipers are so proficient that they can blur their own faces
😏
Only when u get good enough.
JS the canuck, 😂😁👍
It's a skill taught to them by the Queen herself.
I want to camouflage me face like a QR code that takes you to a rickroll.
When you see a backpack magically sliding across the grass while on guard duty
1:55
i would think its just lost and trying to get home 😂😂
Guards: "Must be my imagination"
Ah, the infamous backpack trail dug into the grass knocking everything down along it's route to "position."
All we got to eat was earthworms and bugs along the way and a solar still plastic sheet to catch moisture from vegetation.
Soldier: wait is that a sniper? Soldier 2: Nah mate its just a walking bush with a sniper rifle.
Just video of grass and bushes. Disappointing...
What did you want to see?
It's a classic camouflage joke
@cameron yup thats the point, they did their job well 👍😅
@CQB RAPTOR Bingo! Right on the kisser.
haha audio only
We made our own Ghillie suits....Sandbags ripped and torn, tied and stitched together with elastic loops for foliage...10 km infil to range area, set up a hide, and for 2 mins over the next 48 hours a target would appear somewhere on the range....if you missed it you failed...and had to start again.
Thank you for your service Captain B. Adder!
Wow..such a skiill
We had to do the same except what we were hiding was a convoy of 6 wheel drive trucks with blurry headlights. Aircraft recon would do a run and later the photos would be enlarged and brought to a briefing, funny thing, every truck was spotted. So I said whats the point of it. UN forces painted all theirs white with UN in big letters we might do the same , I said a good color might be yellow. and we could put big letters that spell ENEMY.
Sany0 alone or in pairs?
@@codenamecordon Pairs, (though this was only for the course and it could change when we got back to our units) Taught fundamentals at Bisley, then onto Breacon to round things off.
These guys can play hide and seek for a living, im jealous
Except if you lose, you don't get to play again
Worst part is when the sheep arrive and start eating your cover
I can just imagine being caught and killed by the enemy because a sheep started eating off your head
@@jones6613 or a sneeze 😖
The sheep probably ate their faces too... that's why they don't show their faces to the public. Sheep made a mess!! lol
Well then, New Zealand and Welsh snipers are f*cked.
Its same like u r hiding in pubg and then suddenly boat comes and started firing on u 😂
I need these outfits when trying to leave work early on a Friday
😂😂😂😂same
People in France need the to go outside after the nation wide curfew.
We'll have a new video for you from the Sniper School series each Monday over the coming weeks 👍. Don't forget to like this video and subscribe to Forces TV with notifications on 🔔 to find out when the next video drops❗
Show us for recruits joining sniper school
Yes, pls...more libtard, politically correct and mediocre-pandering video production...please.
Cpt. MacMillan and Lt. Price
The weapons may change but the skills remain the same.
It’s seems slightly different to when I did it nearly 30 years ago. We didn’t use drag bags in those days, we’d dump our bergen and carry whatever we could cram into our sniper smocks. We also didn’t carry full webbing like they were, we only had a couple of webbing pouches on the sides so our profile was lower. Most of us also wore ghillie over trousers, which camo’d the left knee/shin and boots and we had little ghillie suits for our rifles.
Not.much.on the 1990s
Some are the same.
"50 Thousent people use to live here, now it's a ghost town"
Oi! Suzy!
@@ThisIsAnOutraaage Maybe Thousent is the name of the type of people in the game. lol
Sniper mission from Chernobyl.
Touché Captain MacMillan
Me uncle was a sniper in 3 para falklands war on mount longdon 11th and12th june 1982 he showed me a selection of photos of confirmed kills it was unreal
Best camouflage is being a mile away.
I am amaze how they still hit the target while their faces are covered
I remember my mates social worker was 2 feet from him dressed up in full cammo with bushes rubber banded to his body and didn't see him hiding . He ended up 15+ years in the army 😂
Oof the moment ur behind enemy lines and u see a spooder crawling on you
*AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH*
"hey, why's that bush running around?"
I guess I'll just die.
I have always want to be a sniper too and I love those Camouflage sniper suits
I didn't see you on camouflage training this morning Private Smith!!!
Thank you very much Sgt Major!!!!!!
Thank you😺
Being a video about Brit snipers we see the excellent Accuracy International sniper rifle used here. In the US military the new BARRETT MRAD rifle is replacing the Remington Defense and XM 2010 rifles.
everyone: talking about wanting to be a sniper.
Me: look at all those AWPs!
Nah they aren't dragon lores
@@nemember2614 ahahaha XD
I know some old vets from nam and they hated the snakes when they needed to do some crawling and hiding on the ground. Or go in those tunnels
done my sharpshooter course at Warminster in the 90s but had to go to brecon for my sniper course , loved it the best course i ever done in service , has the school been moved to warminster permanently ??
It’s amazing how they learn to blur their faces out like that! Some good camo cream! 🤪
6:32 his watch wasnt facing the right way. The light of the sun is a dead give away.
@Beeblebrox One enemies will just aim at the blurry area
I want one of those rifles
The video set off my hayfever
Im Michael i really loved the video please come out with more tactics, i watch king alex on UA-cam im itching from wanting more knowledge
Being invisible is a art
I came to UA-cam so I can choose on my next iPad...
Then I ended up here
I recommend the iPad Pro, it’s amazing
oi mayt yuh gonna beh uh snipah
Thankyou for your SERVICE GOD BLESS YOU ALL 🇬🇧
black shinny scopes & watch/? bags/belt kit not camouflaged?
Chuck Mellette What's shinny scopes?
You just got a new subscriber!
Is camouflage as important with sites and weapons getting better and sniper targets being up to 3km away? I guess enemy locations can also be guarded by people with good optical equipment.

Miseris Succerrere Disco
7 MINUETS WASTED!! Just random ghost voices and that poor guys head floating on a hi-vis vest
FROST101 good one!
There's only one sniper school and that's at lympstone Commando
That’s not the only one, there is also the small arms and tactics wing at Warminster, which serves the Army. Some of their instructors are also from the RM’s.
I love Salisbury Plain for the wildlife. Carrying my camera with my drab clothing on I must stick out like a sore thumb as bimble past these gentlemen completely oblivious to their presence.
My uncle was a sniper and he said the worst part of training for him was staying completely still for hours possibly days if you needed the toilet you just had to do it right there you can’t move at all
Do you just poop a fat one ? Wouldn’t the enemy see a growing log
2:04 are those attached to their plumbs?
I am genuinely interested- Isn’t the day of the sniper over..??Aren’t snipers easy meat these days with heat-seeking drones..?? Please let me know
Thermal cloaks exist and ghillie snipers always keep a distance between their target,so snipers will still be efficient in their job.
Put the watch face on the underside of your wrist. The watch is your worst enemy as a sniper. To prevent the sun from reflecting on your optics, use black nylons to cover the lenses on all of your optics.
4:35 what if he were to step on someone lmao
1:21 watch on wrist sun glare!! Sniper seen !! Think they need to go back to basics !!!
🤦♂️
Mick H You must be a SAS
Calm down. This is an course, I'm sure there will be a final exam.
Good stuff.
The secret of camouflage is the person wearing it.
I bet some snipers wear willy ghillies in bed.
Wait sorry but why do they not show their face is it because the enemy could know who they are then track them down? I don’t know
0:47 where are they, all i see is grass and a gun
Loved this
Shape shine silhouette shadow.
Cam and con mad
Hi. Nice video bro)
This is what I wanted to do when I finished being a Gamekeeper, but a bike accident put a stop to that.
I broke both legs with permanent damage before I had the chance
What do they use to keep the grass on them? Does anyone know? My guess was like a rubber band maybe?
Yeah I think it's just rubber bands or maybe they just simply run the grass between the holes in their ghillie nets
Interesting to see the differences and similarities in style, and training. Thanks.

This Brave Men Must love bytes from scorpios and spyders around the Jungle
A good tracker can easily detect this kind of camouflage.
Where are they
Brilliant video
Wow
Not so secret anymore are they
Why do they have blurred faces?
becaause of reason
Some geniuses getting interviewed here
is it wrong I read it sniffer school?
Joe Biden an early graduate...
the day of open ground sniper in modern war is over...any thermal finds them
There are Canadian snipers and then there's everyone else.
Sasquatch does exist ! I knew it ! Lol !
Wary
Uber Wary.
Put 10 liters of bug spray into the drag-bag ;)
Cool video but we shouldnt be showing things like this and explaining wat we carry and we do as it gives the enemy the upper hand
mark mascoll trustme, all the enemies know this already, but thats the point, knowing it doesnt help finding it.
They didn’t explain the 3S,s but you’ll have to look that up yourself. They kept it secret so shall I.
Why are there faces blurred?
Snipers typically have bounties in their heads. In Iraq they were giving out $50,000 for a sniper dead or alive. Protecting their identities is key when they are in country.
Added alleyness too
A lot of serving soldiers often have their faces obscured on film depending on where they serve or what duties they perform. Often in N.I. soldier's faces wouldn't be shown on tv for security and personal safety reasons.
Acne........it doesn’t make good tv.
to mask their identity from terrorists who may stick a price on their head
Best way.
Go into 144p. No one can make you out then
Ghost reporting.
Imagine if you had hayfever
Good luck trying to hide from Ray Charles like that! Psh! Smh 🤦🏻♂️
Well, he's dead, so I should be ok... 👌
Wouldn't like to be these guys on the modern battlefield with IR weapons platforms no sir.
But aren't these guys used for assassination and intelligence operations? Opposed to actual battlefield ops?
Ty K sis Ly the House of Commons - if politicians carry on the way they are LOL
@Ty K Behind enemy lines? Just a thought...
Anti thermal and anti IR clothing has existed publicly since the 1990's.
@Ty K So these guys operate in active battlefields where hostile IR weaponry is used on them?
Oh 😟
There was a rumour that there was a Chinese camp ..
...Don't know what happened with that story.
I want to become a sniper but maths is hard for me
If you're gonna make a video about snipers then at least show them
If I were to join the army, this is the class I’d want to be apart of.
Random bags crawling over grass, hmmm... shouldn’t they camo the bags too, and their new british issue boots are shiny,...
AWM the best sniper i have ever used in PUBG😂😂😂😂
Dtag bag and enemy all have night sightt now typical army
I wish these guys could speak English.
As an American Chickasaw Scottish man I find this pretty funny.
did they printed by themselves their rifles or the army bought them? very cheap and poorly made ghillies... why they do not just buy ProApto?
They forgot to camouflaged theyr ass, I open field without grass, where is nothing to hide, the weak point are his backs. Desert places like with sand dunes
👏👏👏👏
F*** ME! Their scopes aren't covered to keep reflection and dirt away. And their Ghillie suits aren't even como'd to the terrain. Great S*** but be real! These guy's could be seen from a sniper post from a half a mile away.
@0:18 He’s mad thick 🤪🤪
Just a countinue a support a defend a our circumstance a and situation a this a family Vicera a were a going home a our real family I'm Peter
Call of duty 4 lol
Camo paint to hide their identity? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
definitely not WWII snipers! This generation could have taught the WWII generation something about sniping and being clandestine. I wish they could have built a time machine to send some Royal Marines and some Royal snipers back in time the train the World War II British paratroopers and British Royal Marines and the British army. They would have kicked Hitler's ass! Dunkirk might not have ever happened
