Im a former conflict zone photographer and I'll say this, it's not a place you enjoy being in, it's just a place where you're doing your job until you can get the hell out of there. I've met Ross on many occasions and he is an absolutely fantastic bloke who loves covering conflict zones, but he would rather be at a Macca's Drive-Thru ordering a Big Mac large fries and a chocolate thickshake. The man has balls.
Love Ross Kemp good show without bragging they do their duty very well BIG THANKYOU and for all Armed Forces who died rest in peace you are sadly missed x
I almost joined the Mercian Regiment. Went through selection, but decided to work in Education instead. If I could go back in time, I definitely would have joined the Army.
Vanquishe I think the UN one is lighter, but even it is , why wear camouflage uniform and wear a blue helmet with it, sort of defeats the point of camo
I the beginning of the conflict, journalists had to wear blue helmets and gear, to show that they were press. After the taliban started picking out on journalists with gunfire, policies have changed and now embedded journalists also wear full camo like the military they're embedded with.
They need drone(s). That would help them greatly. They don't have to be large. Just big enough to carry a camera & to gain a better view point up in the air than on the ground.
Why can't you watch any of his full documentarys on RUclips any more, he does the best middle east war documentarys that are out there, its only John Langdon's that come close, even the kidnap story about him was shit hot, they should get together an do a documentary on the USA army and the war they are still fighting in Afghanistan
Man I want to know what about the Jackal is armored. The engine is exposed along with every man sitting in it. You might not get shot in the leg but you might just come back headless lol
@@sik59rt It's a RECCE vehicle. Fast, nimble, and light, which forms its protection. The idea is that it remains at a stand-off distance where it's heavier weaponry can be used, outside of the range of the typical small arms normal infantry wield. There's nothing wrong with design when used as it was intended.
Taliban are ruthless, they shoot at a force that outnumbers them They shoot at a force that has more weaponry Half these battles I don’t even have a chance to win yet they start these fucking fight
Not liking how journalists can dress as soldiers whilst embedded with a military. Good luck telling your captors "i'm a journalist!!" if you're caught in that situation.
They aren't fighting people who subscribe to a 'don't shoot civilians' mandate. It wouldn't matter if he was wearing a 2 piece suit with a press jacket or combat gear, he's dead either way (if captured) .
They used to have blue armour and helmets but used to get targeted Now they all look the same so theres no target Dont forget this is an enemy that dont follow rules and dont care who they shoot
@@sillyslapper92 Maybe it was all those years "embedding" with Western forces and never showing the reality of war? Robert Fisk (award winning Mid East reporter) isn't a fan of the practice, which I think began with the 'War On Terror', maybe the first US-Iraq war.
No " Breakdown " in comunication. Lmao. The ANA is boyscouts for Afghan men. They DONT WANT TO GO. 🤣 The taliban retook the country the minute we left.
This misuse of the term "IDF" (indirect fire) gets under my skin. And it's not just the reporter. Plenty of soldiers do this too. That is NOT indirect fire @7:41. That is direct fire. Direct fire is when the shooter has line of sight with the target. Indirect fire is over the horizon, like artillery or mortars.

We do need MORE Ross Kemp! BUT we need more NEW Ross Kemp! Please for the sake of real journalism...

He grew up the the queen vic that is the rougher than any war zone

Laughed at the comment, even more at how confused any Americans will be reading this, Proper Mitchell

It would be great if Ross could go with the Canadian forces in Mali !
why? is only 100 guys with 0 combat roles, is only for medic evac of french forces or other friendly forces who are actaully doing combat roles.
dmctztv there is combat roles in Mali.

Would us canadians even wanna go fight in mali with the lib tards in charge and that pussy justin
Sound bloke Ross. Doesn't care about how dangerous the situation, he'll bring you the facts from the front line. So supportive of our troops.
10 minutes? C'mon we want full episodes Kempy! I can't even squeeze off a good turd in 10 minutes.
Hahaha ironically squeezing iff a good turd while watching this right now...
It says continue watching but sadly we cannot
Is there some way to get the full videos?
@@mrick1974 I'm sure netflix or a Google search of Ross Kemp full episodes would get you it. Just a shame it's not on here after hooking me in
You just have to go through his videos and correlate with the one you were watching before, some of them are not in order
The full series is on dailymotion
Sounds odd but I can't get enough of these interesting videos!
Nice to see Ross take all of these young men on a trip to Afghanistan while he fights the Taliban
Haha single handedly destroying the taliban 😂😂🤣
I almost joined the Mercian Regiment. Went through selection, but decided to work in Education instead. If I could go back in time, I definitely would have joined the Army.
you saved your life .. bcoz afghanistan is a graveyard for foreign invaders
@@umairkhan5943 The taliban are mainly foreign invaders from Pakistan, the west are training and supporting the ANA.
The more dangerous situation that Ross puts himself in the more of a hard man he becomes
this series mad interesting to watch
Taliban disliked the vid
Hi fellow clayton
great reporting. god bless our boys in Iraq and Afghanistan.
A fascinating documentary. How resonant of the first world war in so many ways. Thanks for sharing. Paul.
4:14 That's a nice bright blue helmet you got there. Taliban totally won't see him from across the country.
Yeah, thats really dumb to have, prolly found a press helmet and was like "oh cool"... for real, he should paint it beige or purple or something.
Vanquishe I think the UN one is lighter, but even it is , why wear camouflage uniform and wear a blue helmet with it, sort of defeats the point of camo
Vanquishe yeah that’s very true
That's why ross isn't in blue in his later vids
I the beginning of the conflict, journalists had to wear blue helmets and gear, to show that they were press. After the taliban started picking out on journalists with gunfire, policies have changed and now embedded journalists also wear full camo like the military they're embedded with.
When Ross Kemp is in more danger than the americans
hello from kurdistan i love us soldier and i love ross kemp
11 years later - as soon as we left all the blokes in the “Afghan National Army” ran away or re joined the Taliban.

I love this series
Is Ross Kemp big in America too ? Quality documentarist
Haer85 hell yeah
Super army soldiers
I'm sitting here on the couch with my phone watching this thinking these poor Afghan people have a hard life living like this.
y does ytube put soo many ads in the videos now a days
I love Ross kemp...
Where canI find the next part?!!!
I love extreme world but you can’t find part 2 of the episode
They need drone(s). That would help them greatly. They don't have to be large. Just big enough to carry a camera & to gain a better view point up in the air than on the ground.
Expensive
If ross kemp was a soldier there'd be no taliban
He was, he was in the SAS and that means Super Army Soldiers so he was pretty much elite
Kris Faulkner I hope you don’t actually think that’s what it means. Hard to tell what a joke is nowadays
@@kylelerie7325 The SAS are no joke. Before Kemp was an actor he served in Vietnam
Kris Faulkner I never said they were a joke? But the acronym certainly doesn’t mean what you said
@@kylelerie7325 Christ man I thought my response would have made it clear I was joking! 😂 Kemp in Vietnam? Not even gonna question that? 🤣
What this called? Its not Ross kemp in Afghanistan is it or is it? Just i have a box set of 2 discs and this isn't on either of them or is there more?
I love Ross
this guy is hero
ross kemp is a bad ass
Does anyone know where to find the music used throughout the series?
Ross is a brave lad
Ross kemp seems like he could have been a great soldier and leader
What series/episode is this please?
Mad lad
MORE!
If only they had more film 😭
AshedSoul He did 2 series I think on Afghan. They were on sky one but don’t know if they are still available.
it would great if ross kemp would do a tour with the irish infantry in the golan heights on there un peace keeping tour
Yes, that would make great television Zzzzzzzzzz
Bit late for that, trump's doing a two for one offer
NEW EPISODES! Damn man
We need Ross and Phil Mitchel to do videos.
I hope there's no dislike from Taliban 😉
10 talis disliked

What does the A+ mean on the back of there helmets
Blood type
Ross is the boss
This is going to taught in history lessons in class like kids are now in WW2. “the eastern flanks” etc
Wonder what his reaction was when he heard reports about Benghazi later that day.
their vehicle can see through which the enemies' bullets can penetrate easily
Where is ross now
BBC: Fancy a holiday?
Cameraman: Sure, where we going?
BBC Afghanistan
Cameraman: Isn't that dangerous?
BBC: No it's fine, we'll give you Ross Kemp
We need more Peace

Ross Kemp I feel as if I've watched this video before. Just edited a little different??
Yh they are all old clips just edited differently because the show finished years back.
Yip I agree
What is the number wrote on the back of the British soldiers helmets?
Zap number - first two letters of surname, last 4 numbers of service number.
0400 in the morning pmsl
Oh yeah I remembered that u and ur camera men are not aloud to wear blue anymore cuz they target ppl in blue
Tyler Meaden this was 8 years ago
One of the first
kemp is the fuckin man
Man I want to know what about the Jackal is armored. The engine is exposed along with every man sitting in it. You might not get shot in the leg but you might just come back headless lol

Right
Cud watch this shit all god dam day

that's the day after my birthday
“04:00 in the morning! Once a civvy ...............
Everyone was a civvy at some point no?
Why are these released so many years after they were filmed? I know it is sensitive info about operations but 8 years?
They were broadcasted in Tv years ago. They only uploaded them to youtube now.
Afghanistan looks a lot like a greener Tatooine from starwars if yk what i mean
I thank the British for helping out there fellow country the usa
Taliban are ruthless, they shoot at a force that outnumbers them
They shoot at a force that has more weaponry
Half these battles I don’t even have a chance to win yet they start these fucking fight
A DshK on a Humvee...and we’re negotiating “peace” and handing this stuff back to the Taliban.
Iraq has been using a lot of hmvees with dshk's mounted on em
So these guys get an acog on a Granede launcher and jager can’t hav one on his ar
I know right bud
this was filmed in 2011 wtf
