What a nice regular seeming guy, I bet he was very believable at his role. And he gave points for the broader topics that Hollywood got right vs nitpicking details. We know they’re all movies and don’t show reality.
This guy has to be the most lenient/generous expert on this channel either that or hollywood really knows how to get double agent scenes right, which wouldnt be surprising considering that hollywood are experts at being fake.
When they interview people like this they have long retired and the government usually dictate what they can and can't say for national security reasons. Also if this guy meets a suspicious end there's already a list of suspects.
@@SEAZNDragonexactly. This operation ended in 2009, I wrote a book, served in the Navy, was an MSNBC analyst - the Russians are not surprised to see this.
Terrific expert! He's so down-to-earth and descriptive, and he really communicates what's fun about the entertainment we're seeing, as well as what is realistic. It's easy to see why he was believable and successful as a spy himself.
I agree! He's been one of my favorites, and like you said, b/c he acknowledges the entertainment and what they did right. It feels like many are only looking to highlight what they did wrong. Which is ok. But I think balance to see both is good.
The original Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy was a miniseries broadcast in the UK starring Alec Guiness it is the best version of that book. I highly recommend it.
Oh man, I love these kinds of spy thriller, especially when you have to hunt down a mole. But there's so many to pick from. Here is my list, spy movies that were overlooked. Theres always going to be a double agent in James Bond movies; CASINO ROYALE. DIE ANOTHER DAY. GOLDENEYE. LICENSE TO KILL. SPECTRE. BLACK BOOK. THE DEPARTED. GET SMART. THE GOOD SHEPHERD. THE GUNS OF NAVARONE. THE IMITATION GAME. THE IMPOSSIBLE SPY. INFERNAL AFFAIR. INGLORIOUS BASTERDS. THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE. MI-5. NO WAY OUT. THE RECRUIT. RONIN. SCORPIO. STALAG 17. STEAL THE SKY. THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR. THE THREE MUSKETEERS. TINKER TAILOR SOLDIER SPY. WHERE EAGLES DARE.
Should have added True Lies. This guy would give it a 10 / 10 for realism. I suppose it's somewhat realistic in the way Bill Paxton's character is portrayed. It's probably based on this guy.
Doing anything "unexpected" that you wouldn't do while normally driving. You don't need to "lose them" so much as show them that you know they're following you so they'll break off. Pulling through a parking lot is a poor choice in an active pursuit type of thing because it's easy to get stuck or hemmed in if there's two cars following you.
It's literally defined in the same sentence it's first mentioned in _Mission Impossible_ (1996): "This morning, we learned that Golitsyn has stolen one half of a CIA NOC list, the list of our _non-official cover_ agents working in Eastern Europe." (emphasis mine)
That's right. He was an asset. The spy recruits the agent, who then collects the intelligence, and is then debriefed by the spy who recruited them to write their reports. Almost all of real spy work is talking to people and is about as exciting as going to a restaurant.
@@talibangb9566 It's publicly available info on how spywork is done, and multiple people involved with CIA and spywork have been on this show and others like it and explained that field agents mostly just talk to people and get people closer to the person of interest to pass along information. It also makes sense in multiple levels, you don't have to make a whole ironclad backstory and identity to infiltrate some guy's secretary pool if you can befriend one of his secretaries who hates him
So many people here are doubting if he really was a spy which shows how amazing this guy is at being a spy. Even after being told he is a spy and get a name you can google and varify that he indeed is a spy many people still won’t believe it because he seems so harmless. I think…
I just find it kind of interesting that this video didn't talk about the torture aspect of spycraft and made sure not to include movies like Peacemaker or Syriana. I assume this video is to try to create interest in becoming a spy. Just like recruiting into the Marines but they never talk about field day.
From an administrative point of view, I am rather curious: If an American pretends to spy for Russia and they pay him, can he keep the money? If so, is it taxed? If so, how on earth would he file that? (I am not American, I just assume you have to file where your income came from).
These breakdowns never pull out the realistic shows... where is a reaction to the big European success The Bureau -which is thrilling but with a much bigger focus on the actual real craft of modern spies?
re: Anna (Sasha Luss) Honestly, if there were KGB agents/ if there are GRU/ FSB agents who look like HER I'd be in SERIOUS danger of betraying every single national secret that exists!! Except that I'm Australian and that we don't really have any national secrets... But don't tell HER that!!! Not until after... Ok??
Wonder what the James Bond car crash scene has to do with being a double agent. Yet, it's easily one of the worst product placements. Who would spend a six-digit amount of money on a sportscar that flips all over the place as soon as it has to go around a small obstacle?
Funny enough, they actually could not make the Aston Martin to roll over because it was built to be stable. They had to put a pneumatic cylinder or something on the bottom of the car and activate it manually to get the car to roll. The stunt driver who did it is former stig (Ben Collins). I'm sure there's a video of the whole thing somewhere in UA-cam.
His target was the most valuable jelly doughnut. It turns out, he was double dog dare crossed by a triple dog dare agent. Turns out, it was just a jelly doughnut HOLE!!! He almost lost his life that day. It's his "great White Buffalo"
Is that why bond always was upfront with his name 🤔 he never gave fake name now it makes sense being suspicious from the go actually eliminate you chance moat as well stick as close to truth just leave out specific
And the whole time that the FBI thought he was working for them, he was in fact working for Insider (he was the man inside)
You could also say he was the “Inside Man”….
So he was the.. Insider?
So he was a triple agent
Woiuld you say, he's an insider?
Now i want to try this guy's French toast
My kids give it two thumbs up.
he learnt it by spying on the french
This man just give me a whole list of movies to watch. thanks.
The best agents are indistinguishable from normal crowd, easier to blend.
Kim Kardashian reading this - 😔😔😔
@@vasiovasio most agents can't be good movie stars , coz actors desires fame 😊💗
@sherinjohn001 Dude, please don't write these things! Kim is reading and crying right now! 🥺😢😔
best agent is a hot woman.
What a nice regular seeming guy, I bet he was very believable at his role. And he gave points for the broader topics that Hollywood got right vs nitpicking details. We know they’re all movies and don’t show reality.
He's actually a quadruple agent lol
Makes him invisible infront of the cake buffett.
actually triple 🤓👆
The funny thing is as the son of immigrants, the joke in my family was "why just a double? Couldn't you be a triple agent and a dentist."
@@naveedjamali6482 as you could make french toast, I wonder why you haven't been an agent for the french, too 😄or are you?
This guy has to be the most lenient/generous expert on this channel either that or hollywood really knows how to get double agent scenes right, which wouldnt be surprising considering that hollywood are experts at being fake.
I've seen at least one other Insider expert give nothing less than a 7. And some give nothing even that high.
I was rating it on the scene, not the overall movie.
@@naveedjamali6482i was talking about the rating of the scenes
People: "Who do you really work for"
Double Agent "Yes"
Well… now his cover’s blown.

Once someone admits to being an agent, never believe their actual loyalties.
he WAS an agent. WAS. jesus christ you people are slow.
It doesn't matter, really with respect to what the comment was about. @@ItsJoKeZ
@@GaadhiMahendraThat persons user name is peak irony.
Tinfoil-hats are on sale now, huh?
I was like a 9 for Atomic Blonde, but once he'd said why, I laugh so hard.
That particular scene in Atomic Blonde was actually not in the book. It was probably just added to set up a possible sequel.
The original Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy was a miniseries broadcast in the UK starring Alec Guiness it is the best version of that book. I highly recommend it.

This is oleg..he actually triple agent
His real name is Sambal Oleg
Hey "Naveed": all that US paraphernalia isn't going to convince me you aren't a triple agent 😅
Should have added True Lies. This guy would give it a 10 / 10 for realism. I suppose it's somewhat realistic in the way Bill Paxton's character is portrayed. It's probably based on this guy.
If not Paxson... Maybe Johnny English 😅
16:30 “you just told her four things that have to be true” … my ex did not watch this movie 😅
Does a double agent collect 2 paychecks?
Probably to attract no attention 😅
Lol, he should be 😂
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, the book is on a different level.
The fact that so many people don't believe he was a double agent means that he did his job really well
What does Tony Stark have to do with Kryptonite? LMAO
Superman and Iron Man are both super heroes I guess lol
Superman joining the MCU... It's like Nash and Hall in WCW all over again... Long-term storytelling....
Following you. Someone told me you pull a u-turn and then drive through a parking lot.
Doing anything "unexpected" that you wouldn't do while normally driving. You don't need to "lose them" so much as show them that you know they're following you so they'll break off. Pulling through a parking lot is a poor choice in an active pursuit type of thing because it's easy to get stuck or hemmed in if there's two cars following you.
They knew to pick the right thumbnail 😂
for a second i thought he was working against US 😂
For a third he is
So what I hear is that James Bond announcing loudly who he is every time he walks at casino is actually good. Tradecraft. Got it.
Today I learned what NOC stands for. All through Mission Impossible, no one ever explains what the NOC in NOC list stands for, and now I know.
It's literally defined in the same sentence it's first mentioned in _Mission Impossible_ (1996): "This morning, we learned that Golitsyn has stolen one half of a CIA NOC list, the list of our _non-official cover_ agents working in Eastern Europe." (emphasis mine)
I clicked, but am totally expecting him to call bs on 99% of what he watches.
Awesome video keep it up with great work ❤❤❤
Thought we'd see a clip from The Americans for sure.
I’ve been interviewed about the Americans
Just checked if he has written a book about his journey, and found it on amazon. Will read this.
Thank you for sharing
The US screams blue murder when there are foreign spies. But it's OK to send over a double agent. 😂
For those wondering, it's "double agents", not "double O" agents
Oleg watching this:😒
Imma go ahead and say this guys not a spy

MEET THE SPY! 🗿
Would have liked to see him react to The Departed
One of my favorite movies. It does a good job of the psychology of working undercover.
This man is a spy movie encyclopedia.
I just find it kind of interesting that this video didn't talk about the torture aspect of spycraft and made sure not to include movies like Peacemaker or Syriana. I assume this video is to try to create interest in becoming a spy. Just like recruiting into the Marines but they never talk about field day.
I did. I made clear that coercion (that includes torture) does not work long term, and can only yield short term info at best.
"People like him were causing people like us to die 😢"
I thought he wanted to be in the military? Typical USAmerican hypocrisy.
The thing that made him believable for me was his palpable hesitation while he decided what he could or could not disclose
A good actor can fool you into thinking that
Yup. Hard evidence.
No possible way that moment could be intentional and rehearsed. lol
Fascinating video
Espionage seems dangerous but also petty and silly. Proablably fun.
What they don't show you is after this video ended he took off his mask.
Am I missing something why is green kryptonite ironic given Iron Man was on screen…. Is “Naveed” mixing up MCU and DCU?
I want to trust him, but he gives off Jon Lovitz vibes 😆
that's the ticket
1:48 what does kryptonite have to do with Tony stark???
Loose superhero link
This guy should've been Fight Club.
His name is Robert Paulsen.
Huh, so he was a different type of double spy. Makes sense. They must be all kinds of types of spies

One can tell you're German, just by reading the text and skip your name 😄
bro was a double spy thats crazy
Next up, 'Convicted Murderer rates 10 murder scenes in Movies and TV | How Real is it?'

literally someone could finish a sentence and go on here bro- is that insane to think on? are you that dull
How is that man still alive
These breakdowns never pull out the realistic shows... where is a reaction to the big European success The Bureau -which is thrilling but with a much bigger focus on the actual real craft of modern spies?
Or The Good Shepherd.
Nice video but I was hoping he'd discuss The Americans/
Hawaii isn't an escape.
It's a dead end unless you own a boat or plane.
Dude, he's a spy, do you actually believe everything he said 😂?
Wasn't the Aston Martin they destroyed a replica?
Is Insider actually an FBI recruitment agency and this guy an actor? He already said he's used lines from movies before...
According to this guy EVERYTHING is believable
You're unbelievable
You cant have young people working CI when it takes years to get into the FBI, then even more time before you can possibly do that as a job.
Spy Game is my favorite.

Except that I'm Australian and that we don't really have any national secrets...

He looks like someone you could trust. One of the rare videos I am not feeling and may not finish.
Do you still call Oleg on his birthday?
In spanish please !!! Thanks great channel
He better put some respect on Hooters wings
Lol his reason to say no to a thumbdrive transfer is it's going to alert their endpoint solution so youre now exposed
TOM CRUISE = LEGEND
So he did all that to get a recommendation for the Navy Reserve? That seems like a very low price.
He's dressed way too vetbro to actually be cool.
Should’ve done The Americans!:(
24 a 4? Really? Ok whatever. It's still the best TV show of all time.
this man was never a spy … definitely
Wait what... he's a spy spying as a spy for another spy agency?
What if this is FBI double play in which he is not actually a double agent but trick the Russian to think they have another one?
Comrade Naveed, take special care against gun umbrellas, radiation poisoning, and ODing on hamburgers...
Be wary of girls with spray bottles

Wow 🤦🏽♂️
Right, that's why he said ironically, not coincidentally .
acktully ☝️🤓
How to know if we should trust this guy at all
As always spys search the spotlight although they are under threat of life 😂
…he was a fake informer

Sounds like agood spy is entirely boring lol
yes, because an exciting spy is usually dead
