This is why other countries, including the US, ask to borrow the SAS when they want something done properly.
Or just ask them to train their troops
Or help set up a special forces group.
They did it for the:
Americans, Polish, French, Finland, Egypt, and so many more
Every Nato country do joint military training exercises. Also a select few train together, Delta, Sas, add in Australia, Canada but no others. But no Delta operator has the privilege of the full Sas experience, and no Sas operator cares about not having the privilege of thr full delta training experience, since it not required. Back to the borrowing thing, it's like this, if a Belgian merchant ship is off the coast of Madagascar, and it has beed boarded, it is quicker to get US or British forces there than Belgian. If Islamic extremists take a school hostage in Sweden, who has more experience in a matter like this, swedish special forces, or British. Britain would offer their assistance, and it would be received.
or just go obi wan nairobi 🤣🤣
The US has never chosen another Special Operations group over their own to do anything. Every operation they have they want "done correctly". If they wanted the SAS for top operations then they would have been tasked to take UBL, Baghdadi, Saddam, etc. They weren't. They weren't even wanted by the guys of JSOC until they proved themselves.
It's true
SAS stands for Special Air Service and is part of the British Army. The Royal Navy have something similar called the SBS, the Special Boat Service. Both are part of the UK’s special forces, though the SAS is probably the best known bit thanks in part to its very public successful hostage rescue / terrorist takedown operation at the Iranian Embassy in London in 1980.
beat me to it lol
The SBS was founded by the Royal Scots of the SAS. The army needed a unit that could traverse shorelines, to attack shoreline targets.
And the SBS is actually the more specialist unit of the two. You get to hear about SAS missions sometimes, you don't get to hear about SBS missions, except for the WWII ones.
@@Mark-Haddow Nope, The SBS is largely formed of Marine Commandos who pass SAS selection then go on to specialist training. The SAS is largely formed of ex-Paras. My uncle was in the SBS.
@@cybertrophic
Yes, it is. Because any member of any service can apply to train and join. The RAF can join the SBS, the Army can join the SBS. Civilians can join the SBS, first via the reserve, then the company.
The SBS is an independent unit that began with Scots Guards, exactly like the SAS. This is a fact. Instead of waffling, look up their origins.
It blows my mind that you haven't heard of the SAS, I didn't think there was anyone worldwide who didn't know that name
I think he was pissing on are back and telling us it's raining.
Do a piece on the sas and doesn't know who there are thick as shit
Yanks don't get very well educated. They're stuck in their own little echo chamber.
The SAS aren't comparable to the Navy Seals though, not entirely. The SAS are a Tier 1 unit whereas the majority of Navy Seals are Tier 2. You could compare them more specifically to DEVGRU/SEAL Team 6, but not the Navy SEALs in general. Really, the SAS are the equivalent to America's Delta Force (or rather, Delta are the equivalent to the SAS as Delta was structured specifically on the SAS) and the SBS are more like DEVGRU.
You're pleb tier right?
@@fredosinsemilla3896 Why? Are you hoping for a promotion?
SBS is actually the more specialist unit of the two.
@@Thurgosh_OG if i remember correctly they are a split of from the SAS
Some point after major David sterling was captured.
@@Thurgosh_OGthe SAS has trained every allied special forces. There was no special forces until the Brit’s and then every country have tried to model themselves on them.
There is a big difference between running 1.5 miles in full kit (uniform, boots, rifle, pack, etc) and running 1.5 miles in gym gear. In my basic training in my early 20s, I did a 1.5 miles in less than 10.5 minutes in shorts, t-shirt, and basketball court style shoes (what they issued us with) and was suffering from a mild case of pneumonia at the time.
1992. (Battle fitness test, Australian army). Run five kilometers in cam's with weapon. I was 32 and did the run in high summer heat. 17:05.
The slowest time I ever completed the BFT in (the return run) was 10:15. I was hauled in the troop office and roasted for not giving my all. In mitigation I explained that I was bursting for a shit and had absolutely stuffed my face with a full cooked breakfast, 2 bowls of corn flakes, 8 slices of toast and 4 cups of tea. That was finished roughly 5 minutes before the BFT as I thought we were having lectures that morning! 🤣 My usual time for a BFT was between 8:30 and 9:15 with a personal best of 7:40. These days I'm happy doing a 5k run in under 30 minutes! ☺
It's the basic fitness test to join the army in the first place & nothing to do with Special Forces.
The people from Infographics are from the US, and generally so are their sources. While their material is interesting, it should generally be taken with generous amounts of salt. In this case they couldn't even get correctly what does SAS stand for...
The Special Air Somethings?
I know it's embarrassing!
Hi, Theres a tv show here in the UK , called Celebrity SAS Who Dares Wins, which puts mostly minor celebrities through a watered down, shorter version of some of the training that the SAS go through. Men and women are treated equally. It’s harsh ( but not as harsh as our SAS really go through) . If they don’t get kicked out by the real SAS instructors, a lot of the celebrities are injured in the process. In recent years the instructors have included ex American navy seals. You may want to google it.
The ex us seals joined when they started the us version, both edited/produced from the same footage.
i prefer the old show SAS: Are you tough enough. with former SAS soldiers doing the training
@@BumblebeesEngin they tried that here in Australia...from the press stories its not going so well.
Lol. Literally the first sentence and this commentator is wrong, the SAS is the Special Air Service, there is no such thing as a Special air force in the UK unless you mean the RAF which are actually pretty special.
There's a BBC drama series called Rogue Heroes which is the story of the formation of the SAS in WWII. Their exploits were legendary. Worth checking out.
Actually rogue heroes was watered down . Real life, the hang grenade thrown on the pool table was a live one. Paddy mane ran back into a hanger after successfully blowing up the aircraft and threw a live grenade into Italians and in the middle of the barracks. something sterling never really got over
There is a saying in the SAS the bad guys start it and they finish it.
The guys from the Special Air Service are as tough as they come, even though they dont talk much about it. The closest comparison is probably a bunch of Ninjas.
I once met a SAS guy, a captain, and you would have never guessed what he was. A totally nice and polite person. And yet he knows 5 different ways to kill someone with his bare hands.
i know an ex sas guy too that now runs charities for kids, i was in his house once and was looking at a sword he has on his fireplace with the sas symbol engraved on it and he told me he used to be sas and he got it when he retired from there. he never talks about to anyone and the only reason i know is because i was nosey that day.
LoL, lots of fakes claiming to be SAS, so how do you know they were genuine SAS?
@@r0ky_M He was in uniform, and I met him at a Div HQ - so I dont think he was a fake. :)
@@petebeatminister
Ok, that sounds real enough..😎
@@craigboden9455 cos many of these fakes don't know how to wear medals or uniforms etc and the real guys call them out as in Australia its illegal to imitate a serving member and can be prosecuted by the ADF. There used to be a website run by ex military who called out these guys and referred them to the relevant authorities sadly about 5 years ago they were shut down as one of the the 'heros' complained about being harassed. but you still see them in papers etc. with a chest full of medals, bizarre patches and talk of being in 'special operations' in vietnam and come up with some made up unit, claiming that they worked with the US Navy SEALS or the CIA etc. i love the american term for it as it rings true, stolen valor.
The think about SAS training is there is no shouting or bulling from the trainers. You can drop out anytime you wish. It’s about mental strength and physical fitness
But you need to run 1.5miles ungeared in under 9mins to join the Paras.... Just the run. The british army doesn't mess about.
There is the SAS and SBS (Special boat Service) . Elite forces.
You should watch a video of the SAS storming the Iranian embassy.... The whole of the UK watched ..
Yeah, I watched it live on the TV. I was hopping mad, it interrupted the snooker coverage. Sodding Iranians...
@@WithTwoFlakes Ah yes, snooker- I'd rather watch grass grow.
It was incredible. I was supposed to be meeting a mate in the pub, we both turned up late😂
And if you listen to the claims of various ex-soldiers there were about 8,000 soldiers on the balcony that day. All of them went in first 😂
Crazy isnt it ? I dont remember that many being there when i went in second@@stevenmcdonough2356
America has got soldiers here in Australia doing training exercises with our Aussie soldiers at the moment, during our winter. They would probably struggle in summer up here in far North Queensland. We have Australian soldiers in the SAS, the training here in Australia is horrendous.
Did the cater course in 1988. And you are 100% correct.
Aussie and UK forces work together a lot. We just hate each other when it comes to Test Match Cricket (and even then we quite admire the other side, but would never say it out loud!)
@@BoxTunnel bloody cricket. 😂 I don’t like cricket and I’m a Pom born in Australia
The Aussies and the brits are cousins some fucking hard Aussies I’ll give you that
Special air service jungle training has now surpassed even New Zealand’s tracker course, according to Bellingham. SAS were doing jungle warfare in special forces units eight years before the Australians formed their SAS unit in Vietnam. Bread-and-butter in the British military
Try watching "Obi Wan Nairobi"2019.
2000 - Operation Barras - Sierra Leone
When British soldiers are held hostage, the SAS lead a daring rescue mission into the heart of the African jungle.
2005 - Basra Rescue
The SAS rescue 2 of their own held captive in Basra.
Lots of other missions these are a few more recent ones that we got to know about.
SAS = Special Air Service. Part of the ARMY.
The Navy Seal mile is NOT fully kitted.
There is a Celebrity SAS show on British TV.
I`ve only known one single chap that trained in the British Army and then ended up in the SAS. He was an quite extraordinary chap - in the sense of being a "weirdo."
He`d come home to his parents house on leave from the Army and choose to sleep in the hedges and fields surrounding the town he and I grew up in.
I remember one Bonfire Night in about 1971 : Us kids came about with fireworks whilst he ( Mick ) came out with a grappling hook - showing us how to scale the buildings around us whilst under fire.....
He climbed cliffs as if they were rabbit hutches.
Yep - Weirdo. `Though the last time I saw him he`d become a settled older citizen, poor Mick. I liked him.
The SAS aren`t going to lose a Mission to anyone. They`ll get what`s coming and take what`s coming.
That`s the way they like it !
I'm twitching at the ostensibly British cartoon soldiers at 2:16 saluting as if they're either Americans or in the Royal Navy. The British Army and the RAF salute palms forward, not palms down.
Yes. 'Long way up; short way down.' Remember my late father (ex-RAF fighter pilot) showing us how to salute the RAF way. 😄
The SAS helped to create US special forces in '62 after being invited by a legendary US Colonel (Charlie Beckwith) who actually served with the SAS for a while on secondment. I guess he was impressed ;)
Special Air Force. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s Special Air Service.
I was heavily into sports and, err, shall we say football related martial arts 😂 back in the 70's. I was very fit, quite strong and could already look after myself BEFORE I even started my Royal Navy basic training in 81. By the time I completed that along with additional Boxing training in the evenings, I was as fit as I've ever been and thought that I could do pretty much anything. Met a bloke a year or so later who'd failed SBS training, and I realised I still wasn't much more than a boy in uniform, very humbling. I think its fair to say at my absolute peak I'd have been lucky to survive more than a day or two of SAS or SBS training! Tbf though I think the same would have been true of US special forces training. Bloody glad they're all on our side! 🇬🇧🇺🇸
I joined the Royal Navy in '88 at the age of 18. I wasn't the fittest but I wasn't a fat lad either. However, my Division at BRNC was St Vincent and for whatever reason we had Royal Marines as our PTIs, Gunnery Instructors, etc etc. They constantly told us "It's in your head". If you were struggling on a ten mile hike on Dartmoor carrying god knows how much it was "In your head". If you were struggling to swim your 15th length in the pool, the struggle was "in your head".
I didn't last long in the Navy because I was a young moron, but "It's in your head" has stuck with me ever since. SAS and SBS are not superheroes, but they have something in their heads that keeps them going when the rest of us want to quit. Same with most special forces from any country in the world.
The fully geared part is very important...i did at 15years old 3km in terrain in about 11-12 minutes...but when in my full combat gear during my military training it easy put another 4-5 min on the same length.
basically every western special ops base themselves on the SAS, and are trained by them. they really are the best
Im pretty sure i remember being told the original training for the SAS back in ww2 included being thrown out of a moving car in the desert for something to do with parachute training 😂
Off the back of a Landy to learn how to fall, IIRC
@@LG-cz6ls long range desert group and yeah they took a bunch of jeeps or landrovers and would drive them into the desert full of fuel, water ammunition and explosives and scout out the enemy and destroy things like stores to harass the enemy
They were also buried on the Brecon Beacons for a couple of days - just to see how they’d handle it, I remember my dad joking about it, saying he just had a nap.
Like Dasyrid said, below, only I can add that there is a neat little history of the unit's WWII origins in Ben Macintyre's book, "SAS: Rogue Heroes."
Good luck with your videos.
One thing i like about the SAS is they respect those who help them. A good friend of my stepdad died a couple of years ago. He served in Vietnam on hueys in the 9th RAAF squadron, his role was winchman and was the guy who would be lowered into the jungle to pick up the SAS squads at the end of a patrol. For his wake they allowed the mourners access to the SAS mess at Swanbourne barracks some thing that never happens but because of what he did even though he wasn't SAS the respect he earned doing that job meant that it was the last and greatest honor they could give him for his contribution in saving SAS lives.
My friend is a Royal Marine Commando. He tells a story about Navy Seals coming over for some training British style. They thought they would 'show' the Brits and went out early to use the assault course and break a few "records"
However they struggled really badly and praised the RMCs on how hard the course was. The RMCs pissed themselves silly and explained the course had been built for the local teenage Navy Cadets to use.
Needless to say the Yanks couldn't get through RMC training.
Yea. That sounds like bullshit.
@@broflo3875 says the Seppo.
@@broflo3875it's actually true and happend a few times.
@@britishpatriot7386 Provide any sort of evidence that this took place at all other than "trust me bro".
Sounds about right my father was a para when he trained with Americans they could not compare to British troops they would struggle with British military training since the British military has a much higher standard when coming to training since they want quality over quantity
🤣Walk to the nearest bus stop, get on the bus, ride to somewhere where you can buy a 12 pack of beer in bottles, then return home via the same route to prepare! LMAO
Have lived in Senegal and worked at a off grid campsite/bar/restaurant/motel. Every other mo the or so the frebch foreign legion would come by which was always amazing. One day I was told that the next month h they would come with Americans that came over to do some training with them. They would stay 3 week. There where American legionnaires also, you could always picked them out even before they had said a word in French. A month later they called, saying that the Americans wouldn't come with them. I asked why and the guy laughed, saying it was too hard on them and they had keft after a week. Turned out they weren't as fit and well trained as they thought. Oh, and a group of C.I.A. Would come now and then. That was a shocker... Never seen so many complete morons. Loud, obnoxious, rude etc. We started to help them more reluctant and slow. Finally they gave up, complain to the wrong people and never came back..
If you want to see sort of a "stripped down" version of what the SAS soldiers go through in training, you should go watch the show "Who dares wins" (it's here on UA-cam). 👍🙂
special air service
There was a tv show in the uk called SAS who dares wins. Watch that and you'll see. It wasn't the entire SAS programme, but the people went through hell.
No wonder there's only a select few that actually make it.
The US was offered the SAS to ‘resolve the Iran Embassy’ issue in 79, the US said their guys were good enough - look what happened
15 min 1.5mile run might be slow if you are track running or running in a neighbourhood but these guys are doing it cross country, whilst wearing basic kit.
The Infographics Show can often be wildly innacurate. Check out the Gritty Soldier doing the "Fan Dance" around the Brecon Beacons. Great video of an older chap, ex US Ranger, doing one of the challenges Brit SF forces go through. You may be in pain doing it, but the views are awesome!
if you're interested in the SAS training, there was a cool show about it. called "SAS: Are you tough enough" with some rather famous SAS members (and one who will most likely be recognized by his looks)
I remember that, with Eddie & Mac!
When based in Hong Kong we had a master sergeant from the USA based in Korea to teach our troops which where being deployed for ceremonial duties for honour Guard in Korea as part of induction he had participate in our physical fitness training he turned up for a Combat fitness test in trainers as he said thats normal in the USA army as for our British troops we do all our combat fitness test in boots apart from gymnasium test i say no more
Former Marine here. We do our PT tests in the armed forces in "trainers", but we also train very often in boots in utilities. Long runs, ruck marches, etc. We had a group of Rpyal Marines show up to CAX at 29 Palms in July of one year and we were laughing at them falling out of the exercise due to their inability to withstand the heat.
@@broflo3875 Yeah I smell BS
@@broflo3875 I doubt your Marines would do to well when The Royal Marines go and exercise in the middle of the Norwegian winter. Horses for courses.
@@Yandarval We do our winter warfare training in Alaska. Also many of our Marines and soldiers come from places in the US that get far colder than any place in the UK so I don't think your assessment on what US Marines can/can't do is entirely too accurate.
@@broflo3875 however, climate in Wales and Scotland is far more difficult than Alaska.. Poor visibility, wet as well as cold and very muddy to operate..Dry cold and with the right kit and expertise, more bearable
The fact that this video got the SAS's name wrong in the very first sentence should tell you all you need to know.
We have a SBS too [Special Boat Service] - a part of the Royal Navy.
The SAS [Special Air Service] is mainly from the British Army [not Air Force].
The SBS were army originally. They're not navy, but rather a special unit for marine/water operations. The Royal Marines and Marine Commandos are navy.
@@Mark-Haddow The SBS is Navy. I used to be in the RN
@@anglosaxon5874
OK dokey, no, it isn't. It's an independent unit of the British military, and its origin is the British army, via the Royal Scots Guards, who also created the SAS. The Royal Marine Commandos are the navy special forces.
@@Mark-Haddow Yes it is! Look it up!!!!
@@anglosaxon5874
Why would I look up what I already know.
The SBS was an offshoot of the SAS. The Scots Guards founded both. One to attack inland targets like airfields, and the other shoreline targets, like radar installations. This is a fact, not opinion. You can volunteer for SBS training from any branch of the service, likewise the SAS.
A family friend was in the SAS and served in both the Gulf War and Iraqi War. He recounted to me how they arrived in the middle of nowhere wearing olive drab uniforms, which made them stand out in the sandy desert 'like rose bushes'. To remedy this, one night they 'borrowed' more suitable uniforms from a nearby US equipment and logistics depot, along with enough equipment to start WW3.
He was shot in both wars. The second time, he was transported more than 200 miles overland, across the desert, in a stolen pickup truck by his comrades, dodging Iraqi positions and ultimately leaving Iraq for Jordan. He was immediately operated on and airlifted back to the UK, where he spent just 2 weeks recovering before returning to his base - on crutches.
Your friend needs to read better fiction.
the SEALs run is not kitted. The SAS run is carrying 40lb backpack, plus weapon and other kit
SBS them then carry a very heavy Klepper over 10 miles and a 25 mile kayak in the North Sea.. not to mention Clothing at all rigs with 13 stone of kit in the middle of the night in the rough cold water!
yes SBS do more or less the same as the SAS, plus the water-based, a harsher environment
I don’t know if you can read, but you could look up Special Air Service.
Navy seal Ryan I right you sure Ryan? really 😊 yea tough guys eh hope it brings success too them both have a good weekend mr Ryan cheers 🍻 as allways enjoyed and like the light hearted attitude cheers
Check out the SAS ending the Iranian Embassy siege.
To date there isn’t a single female that has passed UKSF selection in regards to SAS/SBS
Further more the BFT hasn’t been a part of UKSF selection since the early 2000’s so this video is already well outdated
They got it wrong about the first woman ever to join the SAS she was badged and it was in the early 1990's. However not long after being badged she quit after a tour in ireland.
No women have ever been "badged", somebody's pulling a fast one on you.
If you’re into special forces, look up Dutch marine corps / special forces, might be a fun watch and possibly some nice world history knowledge….
The SAS are one of the last prides of Britain, they are the most professional fighting force on the planet
Special Air Service. The SBS the Special Boat Service deals with seaborne attacks etc
Ummmm... you mixed up the drunk driving part hon. The guy got drunk and died crashing his car. Nobody hit him. The training drove him to drinking.
Oh... and most mothers would pass either British or American test easily: being sleep deprived for YEARS on end, carrying heavy kids/equipment/groceries/laundry for YEARS on end whilst living on table scraps wolfed down quickly before navigating complicated, poorly given directions to countless soccer/football/hockey/competition events while suffering ear-splitting music/sibling- rivalry noise.... makes us more than capable to excel in these macho tests of will and strength. But we're just too smart to try. I mean seriously...who wants to live on military food and have to wear those crappy colored uniforms after all that effort?😁
Nice try!!🤣🤣
shut up lol.
But they'd fail the interrogation bit because they couldn't keep a secret
Amen sister!
Well now you can prove it. Women are gonna get drafted in the 3rd world war. Enjoy lol.
This is why at any given time, there are ~200-250 members of the SAS, vs ~2K Delta Force, and ~2.5k SEALs.
How is it even possible to not know what the SAS is? :)
As a former us soldier, being fully kitted during a run/march is different from special forces. An average military service member may have a certain standard, but af standards are so much higher.
My Dad (ex-RAF finds it funny that when the SAS took over the base where he did basic training, it had to be refitted to be more comfortable for them.
The place had been empty for years & fallen into disrepair. The work wasn't to make it more comfortable, it was to provide them state of the art training facilities & everybody deserves a comfortable bed to sleep in. Especially after spending a couple of days with a fifty pound plus bergen on their back, running up & down mountains in the pissing down rain. They are human you know.
You make a good observation, but they picked the "Special Air Service" because they have heard of it.
A more accurate comparison would have been with the SBS (Special Boat Service), who are the elite few selected from the Royal Marines of the Navy.
This is why I don't rate those vids as the narrator doesn't know what thy are talking about.
Actually, troops from both the SAS and SBS can come from any branch of UK military.
You are right about 'That infographics show' channel; their research is pretty dire.
@@Thurgosh_OG True they have free hand to recruit from anywhere, but my point is about the comparison in training to the US Navy Seals, as the SBS specialise in waterborne activities.
we have the s.a.s special air service and s.b.s special boat service one group would be operating from boats/submarines/shipping/piracy/canoes/scuba the other would operate in regards to air incidents T- threats or airport retakes and parachutes with a bit of cross over but more secrecy in the sbs
sas responds to air incidents!!!!!! what utter rubish.
@@applecider7307 air incidents may not necessarily mean crashes, just think about youtube guidelines
I meant that the SAS do not respond to "air incidents" alone. What did the Iranian siege operation have to do with an "air incident", I suggest you look at the history of the SAS, you will realise 95% of their operations are land based and far more secret than the SBS.@@harrythompson6977
Bad comparison, would have been better if it was Delta Force, DEVGRU (SEAL Team 6), 24th Special Tactics Squadron or the Army Ranger Regimental Recon Company.
possibly compared the US Navy SEALs (not DEVGRU) vs Royal Marine Commandos.
Fun fact: if you fail selection for the SBS you can apply for the SAS but if you fail selection for the SAS the SBS wont accept your application.
Also the screening process, 1.5 Mile's in 11 minutes etc... Will come after about 2 hrs sleep and spending most of the day doing hard work.
Americans have a long and storied history of using shotguns. The Germans protested their use and tried to label it as a war crime. But for trench warfare or combat in enclosed environments a short range directional area affect weapon is pretty handy. No need to stick your head around a corner and get it blown off just point the old war crime stick around an make everybody round there take cover or have a bad day.
good for shooting door hinges off as well
that's why the SAS have carbines!.
pistols not enough grunt. shotguns too slow to move under pressure.
pistols still used as a sidearm not primary weapon.
SAS special air services and well SAS is ranked first in the world of spec ops i believe but honestly every country has a specialist in one way
The SBS and SAS have the same training.
It’s utter and complete hell .
The RAF requirement for 17-29 (males) also requires a 1.5 mile run in under 11 minutes
These guys are the human type that everyone knows as the terminators
As we heard, most people fail at the running in the beginning, just go out running and don't stop until you fall to the ground, because your legs can't do it anymore - it'd be the same thing...
The SAS are the poster boy special forces. You want the SBS for the navy equivalent.
A shotgun is very useful for destroying up close threats and restrictions. Flesh or structure will be blown away if needed!
A mile in under five mins is like Olympic standard pal
there's a dramatized film from about a decade ago called "I am soldier" which shows the SAS training of recruits, and the high drop-out rate...
Special Air Service "SAS" (are SOLDIERS from the ARMY) the air bit just denotes that they first formed as a parachute regiment, with behind the lines capabilities. Today, they insert by land, sea and air (but they are all BRITISH ARMY...Not Royal Navy, and Not Airforce)
No, the Tier 1 Soldiers work together very closely and respect each other. They always have each other's backs and pool as joint Ops on many occasions.
Seals have 1 week of hell. SAS has 6 weeks of hell before for the final part. that's why SAS is the best
"Who are these?" THEYRE THE BEST! SAS!
You should consider the Special Boat Squadron
Recruits have died during long marches across Dartmoor in England…it’s the fog that suddenly appears so getting lost & being a victim of exposure is easy..I COMPLETED the Commando Course when I completed my Royal Marines Boot Camp training back in 1964..did my 9 years voluntary service ,mostly with 42 Commando after which I joined the UK Police…after a few years I emigrated to be a cop in Canada…great times…the secret is to make training FUN!
Train HARD so we can FIGHT easy!
Navy seals/rangers are more comparative to the British Royal marines. Not the SAS. The SAS are the best in the world.
The US Navy Seals and other American special forces were trained by the SAS. My uncle and his troop was part of David Stirling's original force in WW2 and he and his troop were murdered by the Gestapo on the orders of Hitler.
SAS is Special Air Service
SBS was the Special Boat Service
RMC are the Royal Marine Commandos
SEALs were basically created as a carbon copy of the British SBS, the 'naval" component of the SAS. the Army's Green Beret special forces are modeled after the SAS.
Not a carbon copy, just a copy. The SBS is the most elite British unit, topping even the SAS.
david goggins is more discpplined and mentallly then any sas soldier
SBS are Tier 1 SEALS are Tier 2. There is absolutely no comparison between them.
SBS/SAS Training is much the same. Except the SAS do not do underwater demolition
@@jo.s7993 I think the person is referring to Devgru Tier 1 SEALS
The SAS (Special Air Service) got it's name as a ploy to make the nazi's think there was going to be a huge attack from the air. So, while they were looking up, small groups of men sneaked through their lines and wreaked havoc. From what I remember reading, it kinda pissed hitler off a bit 😂
With he seals, they don't need to run 1 and a half miles with kit on
The SAS is the equivalent to Delta Force and the SBS is he equivalent to SEAL Team 6. The Battle Fitness Test info is wrong. Soldiers used to run 1.5 miles as a squad in 15 minutes and then you have to run back the same 1.5 miles best effort. Depending on your job in the military depends on what your pass mark is. it used to be 11 minutes 30 for non combat troops. 10:30 for infantry and under 9:30 for airborne troops. SAS was also sub 9:30 to qualify. The run is completed in a tshirt, combat trousers and combat boots.
The Special Air Service (SAS) and Special.Boat Service (SBS) are seen as equals as they do.thw same training. The only difference is SBS include maritime warfare and SAS doesn't. If a mission is mainly at sea then the SBS goes in and vice versa
Special Air Service.SAS. Women worked in Northern Ireland as covert operatives gathering intelligence on known IRA players This was as part of 14 sqn(detached) SAS.
SAS is special air service
from what i know the term sas (special air service ) was devised during the second world war to confuse the enemy as it did you ..into thinking they were royal air force not army the germans had very good radio spies
I think the running part seems fast (especially, if with equipment and swimming). Others seems easy.
You don't get screamed at in selection. They leave it all in your hands.
it's not a 10 minute mile since they run a mile and a half a 10 minute mile would get you disqualified
Learning from mistakes that's what majestic the best.
SAS and SBS are the worlds elite SF
7 mins is a good pace for mile. 5 is really good :D top 1% is 6:30
The seal run is in PE kit. The SAS don't ban women because any woman capable of doing the course would be an absolute monster.
Most people couldn't survive the training for the Royal Marines, let alone the SAS and SBS!
The SAS fitness test isn’t 50 lbs, it’s an extra half your body weight or twice your body weight
SEAL's running 1.5km in 11 minutes are without any kit, so it isn't faster at all. Plus, kit (especially boots etc) isn't exactly designed for sprinting or running those kinds of distances. If you want another comparison: most US Marines or Rangers cannot complete standard UK army assault courses, cos it's too hard for them.
It's pronounced Special Air Service. The video commentator screwed it up. They are a T1 Unit. Not navy seal like for like.
Trench warfare for shotguns, right? be a b*stard to carry all that stuff though 😅
id put the SAS up against any other special service in the world and expect them to win
