All these silly comments on here by people who know fuck all. Mr 'McNab'was a member of 22 WAS and I have met him on my RAF base in the 90s when he was transitioning from the Army to life as a fledgling author. Is there an element of embelishmebt to his Bravo 2 zero book? Maybe, but that is understadbale to a point. This guy is a successful man both as gaining entry to SF and now as an author, business man and consultant. He has achoeved more and done more than most people ever will. He ha made for life and I doubt he or any successful or well known people care what others think of him as per the comments on sites such as RUclips. Good luck to you, Mr 'Mcnab'
@@sagittariusa2283 S Mitchell aka McNab is a proven liar and everyone in the Regiment knows yet he peddles his lies and lives like a god. His 'B20' was a fairy-tale to hide his poor planning and leadership .... Not everyone who gets badged turn out to be egotistical prats !
Hey Mr silly why dont you go and read soldier 5 by Mike Coburn and stop being a mcnab groupie he brings dishonor to his name / unit and fellow operators who were with him when he talks the shit he did, embellishment you say fucking understatement of the century zero integrity yes.
Having served 24yrs in the British Army there’s one well known term to sums up the whole issue. Proper Preparation & Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance!! As stated by others.. his story is a near complete fabrication, except for the fact he totally failed in his role as a commander from the start. Read/watch..Bravo Two Zero The Real Story. Very few servicemen have any respect for either him or Ryan in slagging off a guy, who can’t offer a rebuttal…as he died due to the sheer incompetency of his commander! An excellent book, of fiction, but a good read. 😊
@neverindoubt He made the story just a little bit over the top. Then again, he needs to sell his book and by only telling a story about a long walk it won't..So bring in a high body count, some heroic shit about yourself and bingo, cash is rolling in. McNab you are a Posh
@5 .40 he says " the emphasis changed from toilet paper and fifty pees (pence) to people getting killed." Or do I hear it wrong. I am fluent in Larndon (London) but maybe my ears are not switched to 'receive.'
You would be shocked how many ex special forces work in plain clothed jobs nowadays. Teacher’s, bus drivers, postmen, butchers, etc Like regular people. You wouldn’t know them unless they told you. But they never will!
AJ JOHNSTONE I think there are photos of him up on the internet now so people know what he looks like. I’ve read the two other books in the series since then as well both are as good.
Truth is out about that. Andy told more lies than Pinocchio and had the cheek to make money off lies. The only rights where against some farmers which bravo ran away from. Heroes my arse
Sadly, its not looking good for Andy, so many screw ups from the start to the finish, and battles that never happened. Sad, considering the great history of the SAS, something really stinks sbout his story..
Rip frank Collins the man that kicked of the embassy siege and rip nish legs vince and bob who as u know kept the rag heads HEADS down so andy and mark could put space between them and the enemy respect to all who served including my dad ex 3 para Stephen McDermott RIP dad 😢

I will say the same thing to you I said to the Welsh fool above. MIKE COBURN was there SOLDIER 5 and he tells the real story, but if you were ever in the special forces which you clearly were not, because if you were you would have seen macnabs bullshit from a mile away, so it appears you are somewhat of an armed forces fool who drinks the cool aid because he hasnt been there and done that so he cant tell the difference between reality and fantasy, but that is understandable if the only reference point you have is I believe in those that were there what are you 5 going on 6 you cant possibly be that naieve, but then again apparentyl you are, oh and by the way I was there not with bullshitter macnab but on a different continent and country serving in another special forces unit so thats how I knew macnab was talking piles of steaming shit long before anyone even started refuting what macnab was saying.
Everyone slagging the guy off has anyone of you actually joined Special Forces? True there are fabrications in his stories but there is a hell of a lot of jealousy from those who haven't been so successful after leaving the Regiment. Chris Ryan did nothing but slag off every member off the patrol Bravo Two Zero. However both McNab & Ryan endured and passed 22 SAS selection and earned their berets. If you think they're both wankers bullshitters then don't fucking watch their programmes or better yet join Special Forces and walk in their shoes then and only then will you have the right to slag them off
So yes I did was a member of Spec Ops and although not British but the rules in these units are pretty much the same everywhere. So I can tell you it is hard to get a body count of 250 in one mission, No you don't provide real names of your team mates.Even as they are dead. And No, you don't tell your whole life story and all what you did or where you went..not to mention who and how many you killed. Why would you tell the whole World when most people don't understand it anyway. No you don't make some heroic story about your team or regiment. No you don't tell all what they do..This guy is so full of himself. Not saying he wasn't SAS but surely not one who belongs there or in any team. He is a shame to the regiment.Even his Sgt Major said there were loads of gaps in his story
Mr welsh wanderer are you another macnab groupie get a life I was in the south african STF as an operator and instructor so according to you i have the right to slag mr macnab off really!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so someone else who sees how dishonorable he is with all his lies doesent just because they were not in the special forces, fuck off you wanker, furthermore I detest and cannot stand bullshitters who self glorify on the backs of real operators and silent proffessionals, if you are going to flap your gap like mr macnab at least have the decency to tell the truth, when you lie it shows what a POS you are, especially when it relates to dead brothers who cant speak for themselves on a public platform, in other words SAS or not you have a shit character and that came with you even before you joined the SAS, so dont confuse being in the SAS as an excuse for being a bullshitter and a piece of shit in general like mr macnab is for all the lies, especially on the back of dead brothers which is fucking despicable and then making money out of it, it is a point of principle SAS or not, SAS or any specail forces does not give you a free pass to be a piece of shit. why dont you go and educate yourself and read the real story about Bravo two zero from an hounourable SAS soldier who was actually there with mr POS macnab and whos story is real and its real because if you had been in any form of special forces you would have seen the absolute rubbish macnab is talking from a mile away. I have all the respect in the world for him because he tells it the way it is, so he is of good character irrespective of the SAS title or not, SOLDIER 5 BY MIKE COBURN IN closing it appears the saying birds of a feather flock together is very relevant for a person like you and the bad news is you are not on the right side you are on the wrong side who seem to find it acceptable and justifiable lying about such a significant event for self enrichment at the cost of dead brothers good names. In other words you have no honor you should change your title to the Welsh fool or groupie
Why is he still hiding, if you want to know the truth about the Bravo 2 Zero mission watch the video by Mike Asher who was also X SAS, the video is called Bravo 2 Zero The Real Story
Hes not hiding,he has a family and doesnt want to be looking over his shoulder the rest of his life,also he can still go to Hereford for reunions and be welcomed
@@jamescunningham1973 what respect I had for Andy Mcnab and Chris Ryan is totally fucking gone after the Documentary I watched about 10 times about there Bravo 2 Zero mission this Documentary was made by another X SAS guy called Mike Asher this Documentary is called Bravo 2 Zero the real story watch it on RUclips if your not convinced then there is no hope for you
Watched Michael Ashers documentary. Just a public observer. Never read any of these 'SAS' books and never will, disappointing to know that the truth about Bravo20 is a bit different to what you hear from Steven Mitchell (McNAB). Such a shame that an otherwise good soldier has fallen into controversy. Guess the money makes it all not matter? Who knows.
I found the Bravo Two Zero book to be a compulsive page turner. I think Andy was being honest about his experience in theater of war. I also read _"The One Who Got Away"_ by Chris Ryan. I found his telling to be a bit dubious if not just an embellishment of the facts.
+Debbie Smith read michael asher's "the real bravo two zero" where the looks at what those two said in their after action reports and what they later wrote about. Liars, both of them. Another liar is Marcus Lutrell and his bullshit in "Lone Survivor," but that's a totally different topic. I recall seeing Lutrell interviewed two days after his "friend" Chris Kyle had died, and STILL he had to make sure he had a copy of his book of bullshit displayed prominently within camera frame. The sad fact is that the real "heroes" are almost always the guys who never survive to write their own book.
+Debbie Smith those lot you have already digested are good company with`` The adventures of baron of munchausen`` do take a look if it worth of your while my dear i must say. Cherrio!
+Hal Jallikakik Asher was a Walt trying to make a name for himself, of course the book's and films are edited and sensationalized by the MOD, you don't think there going to allow the truth proper to come out do you? at the end of the day Billy Mitchell passed the hardest military selection course there is.. FACT, Michael Asher was a part timer not fit to lace any of the B2O lads boots!!
There's a difference between lying and editing a script for a book /film,and how do you know Mitchell and Armstrong lied,were you there? Both these men passed one of if not the hardest selection course of any special forces there is.Mitchell (McNab)also served in the Det in Northern Ireland I don't care what you say they've been there and done it!!
+ Craig Ellis + Jack Reaper - - this point was answered by Ryan Flood, 2 months ago, addressing essexracer27 --- 1) Google the book, It says partially fictional account... I imagine a book that reads, went to Iraq, got captured, got interrogated, came home. Is not going to sell many books. Use your loaf. 2) It says on the book it's fiction... How much clearer can you get. If you wanna ignore that then call the guy a liar, that shows how clever you are doesn't it big man.
My dad suffered with PTSD well before the civis even heard the name for it and in the end he killed him self in 99 and chose to do it in the most violent way he could just so wish they admitted it's a problem and gave it a name and made it clear there was no shame in asking for help seeing it as not showing weaknesses to anyone RIP my dad Stephen Thomas McDermott passed out 73 then went AWOL in 76 to go fight in Angola as a private soilder with dreams of money land and all the beautiful girls who could handle problems was he was on the wrong side and just bearly getting away alive he said the boarder or parts of it was a river and he swam for his life then got nicked off special branch minute the planes touched down lol
There's always an element of jealousy in negative comments. About people like Steve, Maybe the truth is over exaggerated a little, its nature of the beast getting caught up in it. A case of the fisherman's tale, he is a down to earth and unassuming person. With nothing to gain from telling lies!
His story was proven to be a complete lie as a former sas man did and extensive investigation into his story and it is all lies...this is done Purley for money
Both Mitch and Colin lied in their accounts, with MoD approval. It suited the narrative. It's not just Asher's findings or the evidence on the ground, the operational issues confirm the myths. Mitch the comedian fucked up first by failing to endure he had the correct frequencies - before setting out.
@5 .40 he says the emphasis changes from toilet paper and fifty pees (pence) to killing people. Or do I hear it wrong. I am fluent in Larndon (London) but maybe my ears are not switched to 'receive.'
wow "truthloader" you guys do realize that there is a book from another former sas soldier out there which disproofs the story how he told it? All the respect to McNab for beeing an SAS operator, but this doesn't make his story about the hundreds they killed true and is disrespectful towards his killed comrades.
nice listening to this, then seeing 'are tough enough' for the sas. You've fuckin have to have it now. oohh err. Just walking past the recruitment centre in England could make you shit yourself.
What was it your CO said the skills 14int have got we gave them now we are lossing the skill and the regiment want and need full soldiers so if u refuse to go then u are refusing to go on ops so thats alot of RTUs i will be dishing out
What I do t understand is and it’s on record the RSM 22 SAS said the story was at least 20% true. The follow up documentary the Real Bravo Two zero done by a member of the SAS. Also cast a very large shadow over this account. Veteran of bandit country several tours 🏴
NEVEN JUDGE A MAN UNTIL U HAVE WALKED A MILE IN HIS SHOES ! HIS BOOK BRAVO 20 HAS GOT SOME INCONSISTENTIES ITS THE FACT HE DISCREDITED HIS BROTHER IN ARMS VINCE'S FAMILY'S ARE DISCUSTED ? THAT CANT BE RIGHT ? CAN IT ? I THOUGHT UR TRAINED NOT TO LEAVE YOUR MATES ? ALL THAT SAID THE MAN HAS GOT TO BE GIVEN RESPECT FOR PUTTING HIS NECK ON THE LINE ! BIG BOLLOCKS ! FACT
I Deeply Admire the never-say-die & physical & mental toughness of the SAS troops in general..... :) They Havn't got Fibromyalgia /"Chronic Fatigue Syndrome",as I & approx 250,000 others in the UK Have,But they would be able to cope admirably IF they had.... :)
They didnt have any knowledge of arabic customs And language badly planned Also not letting israel join in Was a mistake their special Forces could have done a better job!
Despite all he did prior to B20, he needs to acknowledge that the mission failed because of his failings. Slating dead men to embellish yourself is poor conduct.

I found the Bravo Two Zero book to be a compulsive page turner. I think Andy was being honest about his experience in theater of war.
I also read _"The One Who Got Away"_ by Chris Ryan. I found his telling to be a bit dubious if not just an embellishment of the facts.
+Debbie Smith read michael asher's "the real bravo two zero" where the looks at what those two said in their after action reports and what they later wrote about. Liars, both of them. Another liar is Marcus Lutrell and his bullshit in "Lone Survivor," but that's a totally different topic. I recall seeing Lutrell interviewed two days after his "friend" Chris Kyle had died, and STILL he had to make sure he had a copy of his book of bullshit displayed prominently within camera frame. The sad fact is that the real "heroes" are almost always the guys who never survive to write their own book.
+Debbie Smith those lot you have already digested are good company with`` The adventures of baron of munchausen`` do take a look if it worth of your while my dear i must say. Cherrio!
+Hal Jallikakik Asher was a Walt trying to make a name for himself, of course the book's and films are edited and sensationalized by the MOD, you don't think there going to allow the truth proper to come out do you? at the end of the day Billy Mitchell passed the hardest military selection course there is.. FACT, Michael Asher was a part timer not fit to lace any of the B2O lads boots!!
There's a difference between lying and editing a script for a book /film,and how do you know Mitchell and Armstrong lied,were you there? Both these men passed one of if not the hardest selection course of any special forces there is.Mitchell (McNab)also served in the Det in Northern Ireland I don't care what you say they've been there and done it!!

1) Google the book, It says partially fictional account... I imagine a book that reads, went to Iraq, got captured, got interrogated, came home. Is not going to sell many books. Use your loaf.
2) It says on the book it's fiction... How much clearer can you get. If you wanna ignore that then call the guy a liar, that shows how clever you are doesn't it big man.
My dad suffered with PTSD well before the civis even heard the name for it and in the end he killed him self in 99 and chose to do it in the most violent way he could just so wish they admitted it's a problem and gave it a name and made it clear there was no shame in asking for help seeing it as not showing weaknesses to anyone RIP my dad Stephen Thomas McDermott passed out 73 then went AWOL in 76 to go fight in Angola as a private soilder with dreams of money land and all the beautiful girls who could handle problems was he was on the wrong side and just bearly getting away alive he said the boarder or parts of it was a river and he swam for his life then got nicked off special branch minute the planes touched down lol
Ment to say he passed out 73 joining 3 para

There's always an element of jealousy in negative comments. About people like Steve, Maybe the truth is over exaggerated a little, its nature of the beast getting caught up in it. A case of the fisherman's tale, he is a down to earth and unassuming person. With nothing to gain from telling lies!
+George Lowe nothing to gain except £.
His story was proven to be a complete lie as a former sas man did and extensive investigation into his story and it is all lies...this is done Purley for money
Both Mitch and Colin lied in their accounts, with MoD approval. It suited the narrative. It's not just Asher's findings or the evidence on the ground, the operational issues confirm the myths. Mitch the comedian fucked up first by failing to endure he had the correct frequencies - before setting out.
That bloody bog paper, i remember that when i sat selection for the infantry at suttoncoldfield lol bloody awful stuff, no grip whatsoever 😂😢
Hmm, I read Soldier Five about 10 times, not so sure about Mr. Mcnab
The only people who know what happened are those who were there. Anyone else shouldn't second guess.
But through all the information a pretty close conclusion could be made, however yes, youre correct
they were debriefed when home and they didnt mention killing 250 iraqies like they did in books see the real bravo 2 zero
@@Embryonicboy exactly, only those on the official debrief will know the facts.
@5 .40 he says the emphasis changes from toilet paper and fifty pees (pence) to killing people. Or do I hear it wrong. I am fluent in Larndon (London) but maybe my ears are not switched to 'receive.'
wow "truthloader" you guys do realize that there is a book from another former sas soldier out there which disproofs the story how he told it? All the respect to McNab for beeing an SAS operator, but this doesn't make his story about the hundreds they killed true and is disrespectful towards his killed comrades.
I don't get after so many other videos on this bloke why does he decide too hide his face during this video???
Andy, Erik Loves you very much !!!!!
Bravo 2 zero McNabb left our group in Iraqi blamed a sandstorm we walked out of their proxy coyntry
He doesn’t show his face to protect those he worked with in the det
nice listening to this, then seeing 'are tough enough' for the sas. You've fuckin have to have it now. oohh err. Just walking past the recruitment centre in England could make you shit yourself.

What was it your CO said the skills 14int have got we gave them now we are lossing the skill and the regiment want and need full soldiers so if u refuse to go then u are refusing to go on ops so thats alot of RTUs i will be dishing out
Could not hear a word Steve said.
What I do t understand is and it’s on record the RSM 22 SAS said the story was at least 20% true. The follow up documentary the Real Bravo Two zero done by a member of the SAS. Also cast a very large shadow over this account. Veteran of bandit country several tours 🏴
Y is it u got ur keyboard warriors that have never done the job &dont realise wat true men went through

if this guy lied about war, does that make his book worthless?
Yes. It's all bs!

NEVEN JUDGE A MAN UNTIL U HAVE WALKED A MILE IN HIS SHOES ! HIS BOOK BRAVO 20 HAS GOT SOME INCONSISTENTIES ITS THE FACT HE DISCREDITED HIS BROTHER IN ARMS VINCE'S FAMILY'S ARE DISCUSTED ? THAT CANT BE RIGHT ? CAN IT ? I THOUGHT UR TRAINED NOT TO LEAVE YOUR MATES ? ALL THAT SAID THE MAN HAS GOT TO BE GIVEN RESPECT FOR PUTTING HIS NECK ON THE LINE ! BIG BOLLOCKS ! FACT
Watch the real bravo two zero!
I Deeply Admire the never-say-die & physical & mental toughness of the SAS troops in general..... :) They Havn't got Fibromyalgia /"Chronic Fatigue Syndrome",as I & approx 250,000 others in the UK Have,But they would be able to cope admirably IF they had.... :)
He’s done well for a stutterer 👊🤣
They didnt have any knowledge of arabic customs
And language badly planned
Also not letting israel join in
Was a mistake their special

He get old Andy
kid has no clue.. god help us..
Mitch is a comedian. He should have asked DLB to title his book as we as designating his cover name. SGT. BILLY FUCKUP would be more appropriate.
sad
What a load of rubbish!
What a Fckin bellend you are
Isnt McNab a fake?
what do you mean
george phillips Apparently he's a fake, what didnt you understand about that?
Jack Reaper Ii don't understand how andy Mcnab is a fake since there are photo's of him in the military and people who served with him
***** I dont want to hear about your childhood thanks...
***** You must be from Uruguay, because it sounds like 'you are gay'.
Despite all he did prior to B20, he needs to acknowledge that the mission failed because of his failings. Slating dead men to embellish yourself is poor conduct.
I watched the documentary about the real story , and as far as I'm concerned
McNab is a disgrace
