My old man passed this course almost 50 years ago. the SAS are super secret, it took the TV show producers years of asking to get this show up and running. Unlike BUDS there no list of SAS out there, in fact its illegal for Australian media to report the name of an SAS active member, their identities are protected by law. That's why the younger active members have there face covered but here's the crazy bit about this show. If where seeing a applicant on the show its because they failed, all the footage of passing members was removed from the show or blurred out so we can see them. So, its a show about a competition to be accepted in the SAS but... we never see the winners, a TV first i believe.

Nothing about operatives is different or viewed as being secret or goverenment related especially most of all, related to a defence force. As you know all information and data these days are stored on gov computers, if it was true, ok lets say theres a covert ops in China, an operative say Mr Smith was captured. What risk would be to the operative if the intel guys in China, hacked into their favourite government agency say Tax dept network and looked up his details and it said 'contact the defence force'...How much of a bonus would Mr Smith be to them now knowing he has defence and gov knowledge and access to additional intelligence info like towards other ops as an example...Im guessing they would be on the phone to their chinese operatives to go to Mr Smiths residence, where mrs Smith and kids were last heard went away on a holiday but nobody knows where...rather would be taken, held hostage and used against him as barganing tool to provide all intell he has...then they simply would be killed. Where rather Mr Smart has no association to the gov or defence, them now gathering intell to see that the person they caught is a nobody important, his info says hes a normal, no golden key person, lives alone, not married, no kids, (other words no barganing tools) who lets say says his background of working is that of working at a hardware store Bunnings for the last 20 years. I know I dont want my privates stating I have defence ties which is why on overseas 'holidays'..me and the crew fill out all details such as arriving documentation as fake address and employement is a salesman at BCF selling camping stuff and a landscape photographer (which is why have gps and laptop) and are in the country with our footy mates for end of year team getaway...If your an Aussie..

Missing a gas-plug on a Steyr isn't a little thing. Without it, your automatic / semi-automatic rifle becomes a single action. I have never heard of someone forgetting their gas plug for an inspection. They must have had them under some serious pressure for that to happen.

The Steyr is just perfection via simplicity. We get three days of training in our boot camp before we're expected to be able to assemble, disassemble, load, unload and perform fault inspections on the thing perfectly, and generally you'll only get two or three recruits in the intake who will have to resit or get held back to the next division for it. And yeah, I agree, it's a small little fucking thing but fitting it is probably the most fiddly part of assembling the gun, missing out on it would be pretty noticeable.

This Jameson video thread has just descended into complete chaos. As soon as I saw the title I deflated and thought "here we go". We Australians are QUIET achievers, we don't chest thump or fist bump. We don't talk a bunch of bullshit unless it's well deserved and above all, we don't make ourselves out to be something we aren't. I'm a Sydneysider and I relocated to the US in 2003. I have lived as a guest (legally) in the United States now for 17 years. My job has me on the road upwards of 8 months a year and I have worked in every state outside of Vermont, North Dakota and Wyoming. I'm here to tell you the Yanks have a GREAT fondness of Australians. I have visited countless dive bars, pubs, venues, restaurants you name it over the years and not ONE person has ever had anything bad to say about Aussies. I have been warmly welcomed into my American workmates homes for dinner with their families.They respect us because we, like them are free spirits that are independently minded and abide by democratic principles. They RESPECT us because we stand shoulder to shoulder with them, for good or bad in times of war. That's a BIG deal to the everyday American and something that must be cherished, for if Australia is ever threatened (God forbid) you can bet your ass the Yanks will park two Carrier battle groups in the Coral Sea and pump Marines by their thousands into Queensland. Do not forget their terrible sacrifice in the Pacific war, the Yanks play for keeps and they have long memories... peace.

Further to this, there is GoPro footage of Australian SAS troops letting an attack dog maul a civilian, and then an SAS soldier executes the civilian whilst he is laying on his back in a submissive stance. There are further serious allegations of executions, with the rules of engagement being verified by using the same radio equipment photographed next to multiple corpses. The same serial number can be seen on the portable radio in numerous evidence photographs provided by the SAS. An Australian SAS soldier who received the Victoria Cross, the equivalent to the US Medal Of Honor, is currently on trial and under investigation for multiple criminal offences, including an accusation he kicked a handcuffed civilian off a cliff and then shot the civilian whilst he lay prone at the bottom of the cliff. So for all the bogans on here going on about the proud heritage of the SAS, take a reality check about what has really been going on.

You can have the fittest blokes attend but at the end of the day its the mind that gets them through and the desire to want the sandy beret. Used to be only line troops or infantry that could apply but now open to all corps. Also note its not about yelling and screaming and beasting someone, the DS just observe quietly. In terms of how do OZ SAS stack up against UK, very very well..have a reputation second to none.

I was in the RAE 48 years ago, and you DO NOT want the SAS on the other side.

My Father is featured a few times in part one and two. Retired but still helps out on the selection courses, proud of my old man

Definitely part 2. Really interesting to see what you have to say about our boys.

Part 2 is worth the watch. Got the DVD at home

Enjoyed watching Jameson’s reviews and take on our selection.

Thank you for showing this to people. Appreciate you putting the spotlight on our soldiers.

I like that how in the UK and Australian SAS selection course how that the instructor, or DS dont say whether a candidate is doing good or bad, that way its all up to the individual to push themselves to the limit that they think is required. Its like on the UK SAS course during the fan dance stage of selection how that the candidates aren't even told at what pace they are to do in order to complete the course they just have to keep on pushing. And that must make it so hard coz its all up to you as you dont have anyone shouting or moving you forward, just you own mind

This was great to watch. Good to see your opinion on the Australians. I would love a part 2!

Yeah, need part two now. Thanks for posting mate, was a good watch

Enjoyed the vid. Well done. I really like the way that you translate it for civilians.

Just putting my hand up and saying we need a part two! Love this channel.

You should watch the "how to become an Australian commando", which is another special forces selection course. As well as the vice interview of Sgt Paul Cale, titled, "the killer commando"

I remember back in the mid 90's we were participating in a CSAR multi national co-op training, that involved our US pilot's SERE training out in Alaska, called 'Cope Thunder." And the SAS from Australia or GB were involved. Respect was earned and given during this time. By the end of our training, we collectively drank the local pub dry!

Couple of unique aspects to their training there. Good on them. Aus/Can/NZ/US/UK are a formidable force together, will always be on the same side. Part 2 should be good.

As an Aussie myself I like this video, would love to see more

Respect to our Aussie cousins from the UK.

What i like about you is you speak things how it really is not how people want to hear it

I served in the ADF for the better part of thirty years in navy and had my uncle serve in the Australian SASR for more than 30 years, some of his time while I was also serving. He served in Vietnam as a soldier first then back as SASR. Was very proud of my service in Navy, but even more so of my uncle serving as an elite soldier. Chewed some of the same ground as he did at the same campaign and have nothing but the utmost respect for him, and his men who also served with him. Had a long and very successful career and then left to start a business doing tours of the Papuan Kokoda battlefields for civilians. Unfortunately at the age of 68 he has developed early onset dementia and is a shell of his former self. An unbelievably fit and focussed person and now nearly unrecognisable mentally. So damn sad he put some very hard years in and ends up struggling as a person and just a cruel blow for someone who had the utmost respect for his peers as did they of him. Respect doesn’t even come close to describing his persona and presence...so much so he was given the Knick name of Minnie Mouse as his presence just demanded nothing but respect and was the most precious person as an individual who would do anything to help you and always has a smile on his face. Respect to serving and retired SASR brothers where and whoever they are.

Best commentary on youtube. Concise and straight up. 👍👍 Subscribed 💪

Yes part 2. This is just the pre selection course. After this, as you said, they go on to their specialist training. Tbh, the regiment never stops training. They also do a lot of cross training (when not on deployment) with the other SAS regiments of the world, those betting N.Z. U.K. and South Africa. They are without a doubt some of the finest trained military assets in the world. Oh an fyi for you... the 'PT' guy as you said is what we call a PTI = physical training instructor. These are the ones that train and get projective recruits trough basic training. Similar to your drill sergeants I guess. So that's why the interviewing C.O's were ripping into him ;) I've watched a few of your vids now. Good job. Good to see you're covering the rest of the world's forces and not just American. Anyways, interested to see your opinion and keeping it real. Also glad to see our "chicken stranglers" (SASR) represented. ;) definitely watch the rest of the docco. Also check out our Commando's. Out.

Good lad. Remember this, serving in the armed forces is not a career, it is a life style. It is not for everyone. You will figure this out. Try to get into a corps which gives training useful for post army career. from a retired Aussie Armoured Corps soldier. If you are going for SASR, try to get into a special forces unit of some type for the best pretraining for the selection course, and learn and train navigation skills. Very handy.

Part 2!!! I'm definitely interested in more videos about SAS Selection.

I have not much else to do today except watch youtube after work and to have a cold beer. So, PART TWO.

Soldiers are soldiers! U agree - brothers in arms and have a respect for all soldiers who diligently, and honorably serve their country to the best of their ability, not matter which country. From a retired Aussie Armoured Corps soldier.

That point made about being on the field and not eating or drinking what your body is used to was spot on.

Really enjoy your perspective and analysis

Seeing you watch part 2 would be great.

I found the young man at the end really interesting. I also had problems where I had reached my early 20's and was both immature and arrogant. I lost of couple of years of my early career because I needed time to fix that problem. In truth, the reason was because I didn't have many good influences in my life to look to and admire up to that point. Plenty of young men in their early to mid 20's need to start again. In fact, at the start of this there was a man in his mid 30's who needed to start again. Its okay to do that.

After watching this I felt like I could finally relate to someone after what I had been through. One night I bought 2 packets of TimTams and intended on eating both packets. Midway through the second packet I knew I was out of my depths, I knew I was about to hit a physical and mental wall and I felt a sense of doom and failure creeping up on me. Halfway through the second packet, I think I was 6 biscuits in, my stomach bloated, my mind urging me to push on, my every physical fibre screaming not to stop all got to much and I stopped. At this stage i was on all fours in my lounge room, beaten like a $28 greyhound at the Dapto dogs. The flashbacks today are horrific as through it happened yesterday. When I go into a supermarket and get near the biscuit isle, I get sweaty hands, my anxiety raises, I get a twitchy nose and crawl past the isle. I have been diagnosed with PTBS (post traumatic biscuit syndrome) by a clinical psychologist and have recently eaten half a packet of chocolate Teddybear biscuits but had major flashbacks to the night in my lounge.
