#SASBigPhil met him in Arnhem a few years back I'm ex 2 para and also worked on the ships doing the anti piracy stuff off Somalia ...lovely bloke ....took a selfie with him but realised I had left the timer on ....awkward 10 sec wait for the timer to tick down.....think he thought this guy must be a Walt 😂 top bloke
The fact this man served in not only the Army but also the SAS and upon leaving had to resort to claiming a crisis loan is disgusting of this country. They should be given more support when leaving.
@@ChampChamp2024he'd obviously smash being a bootneck but doing the commando course doesn't make you one. Phil isn't a compulsive liar so I'm not talking about him here but It's like when Ant Middleton goes around lying about being in the Paras when he went nowhere fucking near them. He was as much a para as a fucking traffic warden is. He did p coy as a sapper and then goes around jibbing he was a para. Obviously he could do depot easily but the point I'm making is doing the arduous courses doesn't make you one of them even if by virtue of being sf you could clearly smash being anything else.
@@me5969 The difference between him and this guy is this guy definitely seems more honest when it comes to his story. I don't think a liar would mention the fact that they were offered a crossing guard position and all that after being SAS lol
I’m Somali so I clicked on this video straight away and I loved this guys energy from the get go and I was very curious to hear what he had to say about Somalia. He actually put a smile on my face because he mentioned the truth about the Situation. They were given no choice.
I thought I had my video set to 1.25x speed! But genuinely wish more people spoke with this speed and enthusiasm. I bet everyone wants to go to the pub with him…
As someone with ADHD who can recognize the signs, this is almost certainly ADHD. There's no offense intended here, it's something I deal with on a daily basis. But I do think anyone who might be dealing with it themselves should consider at least talking about it with a mental health professional. In my case it's #3 or 4 on the list of issues so it's not a priority, but the top few issues have been ameliorated to an extent so it's still been worthwhile.
Phil is a great guy. I'm now 37, however when I was 19, saw him in the local pub called the fox and hounds. Run by a lovely lady called sue... I had completed training after 6 weeks with the TA (nothing great, I know) but, it was great to me. The reason why I did it was because the burst of the Internet and media about Phil. He's such a positive character and an impact on me. I was shocked and wished I approached him.... I may have times and dates wrong, but I was still young and still to this day admire him. I even saw him 2 years ago walking along the local river, wish I stopped the car and said hello
You signed up to give your life for a cause you didn't yet fully know to support you fellow citizens. That's not nothing. That says a lot about you as a man.
@@anthonyforrester3539 what are they stealing? They’re purposely polluting their water with containers of waste, cause they won’t get with the US regime.
came back to this after the last video of Honesty Box. Must say a thing, apart from the fact that he's an absolute top lad: the last piece of advice, the very last clarification, was top notch. Not only never give up, but also don't worry if you fail if you gave your best. That's the real profound thing, not many people specify that, and that's what most people fear: failure. For me at least, that was on point. Top lad
Phil Campion is a collosus of Survival, Determination & Enthusiasm. His relentless optimism is GOLD. Great Bloke. He's been there, done that & headbutted the t-shirt
That last few words of advice rings through. He seems like a solid guy and his enthusiasm is infectious. Imagine he was in your squad. Great interview.
As an american i always thought the seals, UDT were the best of the best and then i read up and looked into the SAS. Much respect from across the pond boys. Cheers.
Oh adorable Brandon. That's because the sh*tbag SEALs nobody inside still likes get out and write more books the guys who take their jobs and oaths seriously won't dispute in public, but privately those guys are blacklisted from the SEAL community in ways you never hear about. It's a very private affair and they prefer to keep it that way for a reason. It's literally a reflection of them being one of the most struggling SOF cultures in many ways, and many people in the SOF communities in America see it and comment on it pretty openly. I have personally witnessed that SEALs are not always the bravest, toughest fighting force on the planet as Hollywood would have us believe. Some are amazing. They have a larger culture problem though.
The SAS was the first SF regiment. All other SF are modeled after them (if you go back far enough). Who's to say who has the best special forces but the SAS certainly paved the way and have been doing it the longest.
When you get to the US Seals, UK SAS, Royal Danish Frogmen or Jægers, etc, etc, there is no "who is better". There is only "who is better on that particular day, in that particular situation". Nobody is at peak performance constantly, and nobody can train every for eventuality simultaneously. It's literally going to come down to who had what for breakfast and who has most recently practiced a similar situation type. I watched an interview with a US Ranger and his said something like "We're not THAT much better than other forces. People make us out to be some kind of super humans, but in reality we're only fractions of seconds faster. But when everyone on one side is a fraction of a second quicker to orient themselves, a faction of a second quicker at making a decision, a fraction of a second faster at aiming and just a little bit better at hitting... things start going bad for the other side really quick too. And once that ball starts rolling two almost even forces become very uneven in a couple of minutes", and I think that said it very succinctly without getting too graphical.
As an American combat vet I'll say SAS is very good. American soldiers fight differently than our British counterparts. If a British officer is killed in action the British soldier is trained to dig in. If an American officer is killed the American are trained to fight harder. American officers kept us in check. I felt bad for British infantry because they would as for evac or fire support it took their command a long time to get anything done. We would hear they needed support we without hesitation would mount up and give support.
I've been lucky enough to work with a couple of his old colleagues who also took part in Operation Barras, those sorts of people emit the most incredible mental energy and are an absolute joy to work with! I've never been in the Armed Forces (worked with them in the ambulance service) but they are really top blokes.
What an amazing gentleman, I was captivated listening to him. One of the best guests you have had on your channel and where you find them is a feat in itself.
I absolutely LOVE Phil. He is such a massive inspiration to me. I would highly recommend his books, (I listened to them via Audible). If you think SAS selection is hard, you should hear about his childhood. The books are unbelievably honest and at times, they'll bring a tear to your eye. I have nothing but respect for Phil, pre service, active service and post service. A real gem of a human and I wish him and his family all the best moving forward. X
IDGAF About hearing about his childhood, hearing about AND reading about My Dad's Childhood was bad enough. What he and his Brothers (My Uncles) was fucking horrendous!!!!!.
He's that one guy at the local pub where he has spent at least a couple of hours every single day for the past twenty years, who talks without interruption, telling stories, cracking jokes, taking the piss, and everybody happily lets him. Some people are like that, they couldn't stop themselves from being the center off attention, even if they wanted, that's just their natural element, and everybody is richer for it! :)
Yeah, that's the kinda operator I assume he is too. Can't help but like him for it. He's the kinda guy where gravity is greater around him and I hope people take enough of an interest to be genuinely good to him and treat him like a human being and not a collection of stories.
Had the pleasure of meeting big Phil. Truly such a genuine down to Earth friendly chap. Could listen to him share his stories for hours, and he always has time for people military or not.
22:37 "when you start this job, you start with 2 bags, one says luck, its full but it has a hole in it, the other one is empty and is labelled 'experience' the trick to doing well is to fill the bag labelled experience, before the bag labelled luck runs empty" What i was told by a instructor on the maritime security course.
The term "terrorism" has lost a lot of it's meaning. Now it pretty much means "Any non-state actor we don't like, and any state actor who has a different idea about what war means than we do". Terrorism used to refer to practices that instill fear in the public with the explicit goal of causing political change. Like the plane bombings where the group subsequently issued a statement saying "if X, Y and Z aren't released from prison we will do it again" in the hopes the population would be scared enough to cause political pressure for a release. Taking hostages and demanding money was never terrorism. Taking hostages and demanding political change or release of someone, in exchange for not killing the hostages, is. Robbing a ship is just robbery. But we have a special term for robbery at sea, which is piracy.
Coming from Bosnia I know what this man is talking about... I have nothing but the best wishes for this strong man! Big respect for the courege to talk about his trauma. 😢❤ Stay strong, chin up brotha!
Big Phil’s book born fearless is the only book I read from start to finish of the age of around 16. I loved it. This is what inspired me (along with friends and family) to join the forces. I have since left but I still keep big Phil’s life advise at the forefront of my mind in my current career. Cheers Phil. Although we’ve never met. I owe you one
The audibook version in so good mate!! Never stopped laughing the whole way through. He tells it like he is in this video. Just completely raw and real. The best listen!
All the way from the Pacific in Papua new guinea to this great person..he's full of life n energy even in clear present danger he plays it down....AN AMAZING PERSON N HIS ATTITUDE TO LIFE IN GENERAL Is AMAZING...I wish I had a friend n mentor like him...wishing him all the best
This was great, I recognised the name from the documentary he references. The guy has so much enthusiam and is probably one of, if not the best story teller from the armed forces. The way he recites his past is funny, captivating, enthusiatic, chilling and perhaps more importantly, real; at the same time. We need more people like Phil on TV. Im sure kids in school would much rather listen to Phil give advice than some Love Island reject... Phil you have my utmost respect for your service and your story. Thankyou.
I have had the accolade of meeting this fine man, hands like shovels, and has exactly the same tempremant. Well done good sir, an inspiration on all levels.
I wish Phil was my mate, he'd be great fun to sit round & have a yarn with. So funny, so many crazy experiences & his enthusiasm is totally infectious!
I'm binge watching these minuets with interviews, this is the first one in quite a few that's been a positive story overall. Not some kidnap, hostage or survivor if something. Nice breather
If you buy his book born fearless then you get the full story, i think this interview has been edited , was nice to see Phil or "camps" as he is known turn up in Winchester for a mates leaving drinks a couple of months back, he is actually quite a quiet humble bloke in real life , was a member of close observation platoon in the Royal Hampshires and also has passed the all arms Royal Marines commando course 0:03
Phil certainly can tell a gripping tale. He's like a magnet. I know the regiment - his type. My father Terry Jickells was in the SAS for 22 years. He knew a fair bit and characters like Phil well. Good going Phil - yeah never quit. Peace. Mark (Hereford)
@@hahahahaha6412 no he is not and if you knew you would not be calling him out as a liar his father was in the reg and was in for many years ha ha ha your funny
I want to adopt him NOW ❗❗ Maaaaaan, that guy is on another level for sure, no wonder he did what he did.... it's because he bloody well enjoys his life.... awesome interview, cheers to you 🤟🎶
No matter what he has done, which is obviously plenty. I just know I would enjoy a pint with this fella discussing anything at all. Military service has suited him well and the rest of us. Thank You Big Phil
If i was stuck in a life threatening situation with no way out, this guy is who I’d want to be sitting next to me. I’d at least die with a smile on my face.
I love this guy! What an extremely tough man. My hats off to you sir. ❤❤ *Side note: I haven't heard the phrase: "It's all good in the hood." for ages! 😂
