Another great video! Keep it up. So glad I found this channel
Glad you enjoy it!
Really smart observations!
Beauty. I just got the Mikro... love it.
Stay away from crowded places. Clubs and all that shit, it's pointless anyway. Big ass events with tens of thousands of people many of whom are drunk - you're not missing out on anything profound if you skip it. If you can't go without some entertainment anyway, stay sober and have some company.
Once again, very excellent
Always finish conflict in the crime scene number one. Do NOT let yourself be taken/dragged to a crime scene number two.
😂 Push car😅
If i have a small steak or chicken breasts at Applebee's, with sides of broccoli no potatoes, is that considered "junk" because a cook grilled it? What about ramen with seafood and vegetables but less or no noodles? Higher salt I'm sure.
Other than salt probably being high they are fine.
All I know is that women sell love, but they don't buy it because they get it for free
Brilliant appraisal, thank you.
What wonderful sharing and advice ty
Part of maturing as a man is learning how to recognize when a woman is an apex predator. Strippers and other sex workers will eat decent men alive and ask for seconds; stay frosty my dudes.
The most valuable self defence mechanism you have is your awareness, especially situation awareness, land earning to calmly see potential dangers and take evasive action.
When I was Military that was the norm but not for me I went to drink listen to the music and watch my mates act a fool and try to get out before the MP's show up and as I got older I still didn't see the attraction to those types of clubs and the one's who dated those girls were constantly jealous and that turned out bad always. But it's good to hear a more realistic view of those clubs and the female workers versus the patrons unrealistic expectations and their demise.
Gift of fear is excellent, I first heard of it through John Lovell.
I concur with everything you said regarding your experience with the gay community in night clubs.
Your country voted for these problems. Good job !
Amazing how when we show how men can be victimized, many people, probably mostly women comment about how little pitty they have. That being said, I've known strippers outside of the clubs, and they learn how to hate men and develop a messed up sexuallity by exposing their sexuality for money. Not good for anybody, except maybe the club owners.
Tha Albanians became a problem in new york too apparently, i know a guy who worked drug enforcement out there and he talked about them being a HUGE problem. Also, were any of your security guys royal marines or SAS?
I knew and worked with lots of ex military guys. However the ex SF guys tended to work overseas in close protection or as PMCs. They could earn better money that way.
Do we get to hear any of your personal protection stories?
Sure thing..
Thank you so much, you’re a gem! I’ll buy you a meal and listen to your stories anytime!
Whats your go to shtf rifle & caliber choice? Great to hear it in a video response.
500 pounds is 500 pounds Nice hat i like that 9
I practiced JiuJitsu in response to a major fight I was drawn into. The first rule of Fight Club I learned is - don't fight...and keep your eyes on a swivel.
I was the worse sort of customer. I went with a set amount ans rarely spent more. I'd tip the dancers i liked, paid for one lap dance then go find a whore.
I bartend and used to help out a friend dj who used to get hired to DJ parties and the gay parties payed very well the rainbow dudes are shameless and would get upset when i told them i wasn’t with there thing the female rainbows would also get upset because they would get upset if their girlfriends would even look st me 😂
Strip Clubs . . . yeah. Kind of like going to a restaurant where they only show you pictures of food - and you are really hungry!
Really interesting and well put. One thing you didn't mention though was what about the situation where for example you didn't have a partner for a while, and didn't watch p*rn, for the reasons you mentioned- is it still ok to regularly "f*p"? I'm assuming yes, based on the assumption of "use it or lose it", but that it should be geared to lasting a decent amount of time?
From a medical point of view it is very healthy to fap. Its the addition of porn which seems to be the problem.
@@thatgearguy Thanks mate, thought so. I appreciate your replying so quickly. Really enjoy your videos 👍
Solid advice
I've spent many years at the door working security also. Everything you said is true, I've seen it all. The thing I would add is that these are party people, all gays are not party people. Straight party people are also wild as hell.
This is very sad
The US wages illegal wars round and about and as their bitch the uk carries the can😂we have no say whatsoever
Brighton is a ghastly shit-hole. It is awash with drugs, addicts, crime, Chemsex and Poz parties etc. It is a magnet for homeless people, many of whom are crack and smack junkies and has the 3rd highest number of homeless in the whole country after London and Manchester. Added to that is the fact that it is very expensive with an influx of older middle-class gay men ramping up property prices and votes really Left wing. What a joke. x
I am a bisexual woman who used to travel with my gay best friend. He was raped two times, once in Paris and once in Rio. He never had penetrative sex normally but this happened when he was raped by men he met in the clubs. He went on to develop AIDS and died in the mid- 90s. There definitely can be a very violent and sinister element in gay clubs. Thanks for your honest and nonjudgmental view of the club scene.
He captures the reality and nuances well. The problem with strip clubs is, it's far more difficult to make generalizations about them then one might think, and depends on the areas, the state (or country), the club, etc. It's a good thing there's a place those lonely men he mentions can go and interact with a woman vs sit at home and be an angry incel type. The girls will look to target a guy and make him a regular and drain him of his $. The girls often feel bad for those types, but work is work, and they're doing what they have to do as they view it. Working at a strip club will destroy any male fantasies and delusions men have about women. I knew club owners, managers, bouncers, and dancers, never worked at a club myself. Many a fitness model and female bber (the biz I was in for decades...) made $ as a dancer, and that was the route of exposure for me mostly. Clubs can be a fun fantasy once in a while, best not to make it a regular thing as a man. Like porn, it will distort your reality and view of women and that's not good. Finally, a small % of woman see it as a job and can bank a lot of $, while most don't and are broke much of the time due to very poor money management and some POS for a BF who sleeps on their couch while they work and pay the bills...
Very valuable lessons here, and you're an excellent storyteller. Role model to other guards and doormen 👏 keep em coming
Thank you! Will do!
Those guys who hated the gays but were gay were probably molested as a kid and had this forced on them tbh
I was hanging out in strip clubs from 15 years old to about 21-23. Never paid, didn't work at them, was just friends with bouncers, then owners, ended up getting girls into it after a while. You could say i was groomed to groom girls to try to dance. I never had a problem getting women, or getting them to come to the strip clubs, which is a kind of event horizon for most women. When you're young, and you're getting laid all the time, doing drugs, free food/drinks...You don't think about how you met three girls at the bar/club then brought them to the rippers to drink longer, after hours. It was just "the after party." I never thought about how I was bait, i was just getting laid. People have a blind spot for how others are living. For me, most everyone else HAD to be getting laid, doing drugs, having wild parties, etc. If I saw them not doing that, well that was like the nights I wasn't, i just caught them on an offnight. Right? It's not till you get older do you realize, no, other people aren't having naked parties with strippers and ecstasy that's just YOU and Your Crazy friends. A lot of my friends from that time are dead. ODs, suicides, etc. I don't talk to some because they're junkies or tea totalers/straight edge/found religion as a different addiction to save themselves, which is good they didn't go all the way down, but they're insufferable hollow people now, no different from the ones who still obsess about drugs or "the good old days." They didn't grow, they just kind of made a lateral move. I guess the point of this post is to warn people who are out partying to ease it back and the people who aren't out partying to step on the gas a bit more. But the internet and the consequences of getting filmed in a moment of debauchery has forced a lot of people to be prudes necessarily. I would make people leave their phones in a lockbox are a party now. Also, don't ever date a stripper. They're completely changed from a normal woman into a hyper sexualized money extracting machine, and she's definitely spending that money on some guy like me, who's watching you give it to her, and likely advising her how to get more of it from you for nothing more than breathing heavy in your ear.
Dont take the name of the Lord Jesus Christ in vain.
Jesus Christ mate, calm down!
We have the same problem here in the USA right now... bunch of trash people coming in .. some good people. Out countries are being changed forever.
Love what you're doing mate, keep up the stories!
Can you guys just shut up for one moment from a guy who has been on security doors for years. Listen to what he is really saying.He is speaking the truth.
An interesting and at times shocking video. Thank you for sharing.
If you really were a police officer and they did stab you, their whole operation would have been shut down and the law would shit on them big time. I have had similar thing happen to me, where I was accused of being a police officer and punched. I mean isn't hitting or stabbing a policeman the most stupidest thing a villain can do? Even threatening a Police officer will have serious consequences and I wonder how intelligent these idiots are.
we got equality, now we behave just like everybody else which is what we said we are just like you , I dont like gay men ,unless im going to sleep with them. leather queens dont like DRAG
I remember reading about gay clubs in the 70's and 80's getting raided and fined / shut down for the most absurd legal technicalities like completing one transaction at the bar 30 seconds after last orders. How times change, eh?
My heart sinks further and further.
That sounds like the title of a song. Or a chorus line maybe 🙂
I am curious, if a whole foods diet is the best option for us then would whey not be seen as ultra processed or a supplement? I turn 46 this year and your video is inspiring, I have never weight trained.
Whey is processed for sure. I add it for convenience. You have to cut some corners or life gets a little to dull!
As I say in June: Not in my name.
An exgf of mine worked as door girl/ receptionist for a soho club. She was the only good looker in there. It was mainly tourists that got duped. Entry was whatever it was but before a dance was even agreed 2 glasses of Asti or some such awful bubbly had to be purchased at an exhorbitant rate. I dunno what the dancers made, but Leticia made a decent living and didnt have to do it in just stockings and undies....
