Great interview Mr. Carr. I’m not sure why I missed this from a year ago. Came back looking for it after watching Shawn Ryan’s interview of Christian Craighead. I can’t believe this only has 55,000 views. Every American needs to watch this.
@sar4x474 i totally agree, i hope normies see this, or better yet she starts speaking out about the 2nd amendment and the sacrifices made on behalf of the people. our society has become so cynical and our culture so destructive and so fundamentally anti american if we do not win over the hearts of the next generations we will descend into further chaos.
What a gracious lovely lady speaking from the heart. Christian Craighead a humble man will be embarrassed by the praise being poured over him. We are all proud of him.
What an amazing lady and an amazing story so good to see that she could do something good with what she went through. And also you can't ignore the fact that Obi-Wan Nairobi might be one of the greatest nicknames of all time
I told my staff in work about this story and that Obi-Wan Nairobi is the best nick name ever.. said i want a name like that one day.. they started calling me jabba the hut :( haha
SAS 22 squadron are the best special forces unit in the world. Their training and techniques are taught to other s forces for a reason. On the day in question Chris was not out shopping, he was in his apartment which was around 30 mins away. He had just had a shower when his friend called from inside the hotel complex. He said there was a terrorist attack under way and he needs to get there ASAP. 15mins of advanced driving later, he arrived at the complex. the rest was history. Ironic that 22 innocent people died but 700 or more were saved by lone SAS 22 squadron operative Christian Craighead. Imagine my pride when I discovered he, like myself is a Geordie from Newcastle Upon Tyne in the North East of England!
It is not called "SAS 22 squadron". The word is regiment, the name of the regiment is 22 SAS. A squadron is a division, a sub-unit within the regiment. There are 4 squadrons, each further divided into troops, then patrols.
The best podcaster on youtube, very down to earth. Christian craighead you are a legend,imagine doing a terrorist attack within distance of the SAS,one outcome!
Found this after watching Chris on the Shawn Ryan Show. I immediately bought the audiobook. What a great interview and fantastic lady. I hope more people look into this story. Got yourself a new subscriber. Thanks for the work you do and your service.
I was gonna pass on this interview but decided to watch it because all your other interviews have been pure gold. Holy cow, I kept wiping my eyes through much of the interview. Thank you both for taking the time and energy to make it happen. Very thankful. Wow...
Almost exactly one hour into the interview... This is incredibly powerful. This part of the interview is why I love my country & why I care so much about serving. What a heartfelt message from someone who went through hell to be able to recognize it. I honestly can't wait to read this book!
Extremely compelling. Thank you Jack. Bought the book based on the conviction in her voice and the compelling story. That love of country and respect for those who run to the danger came through so clearly. For whatever reason not a common feeling these days.
I just finished her book and have watched a bunch of her interviews. You by far seem to put her the most at ease with how you just had a normal conversation in first 10-20 minutes. Excellent work
Great interview. Just bought her book on Audible. Wish every High School senior could listen to this. We might have a less childish group emerge without needing to go through such an eye opening trauma themselves. There but for the grace of God …
What a woman! Amazing interview. I've followed the Nairobi event since the live feed blew my mind. The fresh info finally making it out is wonderful, this podcast included. Chris's book will be the final piece... until one hell of a movie some day!? Her sharp reflection and philosophical understanding since that crazy horrible experience is a breath of fresh air to hear. Massive respect to her for putting it in print and for now being able to articulate it so perfectly but still so personally.
@@ALANL4460 The MOD don't like it because the establishment thinks it sets a bad example, because he was operating technically between what was "advising" which he was in Kenya to do and part of his orders, and direct engagement. However, as one of the other SAS (chris ryan) guys has said about previous missions part of their training is mission modification, Chris himself for example when advising BOPE in Brazil went on raids with them.
@@lewisb85 One thing Chris Ryan said that I agree with is that if an operation is in the public domain as in the press have gotten the story etc the stories should only be vetted for operational procedures and methods still in use. Chris Ryan and Andy McNab were great recruiting tools for the army and SAS in the 90s as there was a huge bump in applications for selection as there was after Nimrod. Stuff in the public domain if allowed would be a great tool when the British Army has a recruitment crisis
@@ALANL4460 I agree I saw that thing on channel 4 news the other night where they talked about how applications to tier 2 (pathfinders etc) are down, so if the pathfinders and for example the royal marines mountain leaders' recruitment is down the two main filter point for the SAS, SBS and SRR surely that means numbers in the tier 1 units will start to suffer, I think the MOD should embrace Christian and get him on every podcast and program they can like the US army does with Tim Kennedy, use him as a full time recruitment tool.
Fantastic interview glad I didn’t skip this as others have said. She’s an inspiration :) You mentioned talking to Chris Craighead in there but I can’t find that interview??
1:00:32 I'm a woman early 30s and I have been going through this exact shift in thinking the last couple of years, and wow, I'm a Brit but this conversation here had me tearing up. It's really something to feel patriotism, here in the UK being politically on the left in particular, my whole life it's like we've never been allowed to really say we feel proud of being British or proud of our military. But these sentiments Meyli expresses here are how I feel now. It's frightening I didn't feel it before, and frightening to look around and see how many people do not feel that way towards our service people and everyone in the West who is protecting and sheltering us and keeping the wolves from the door.
Lot of people here from the Shawn Ryan show. Christian literally said "Go talk to Meyli." Because she can say things the British government still won't let him say.
The paragraph at 59:39 was awesome. I’m glad that she now understands why our military and first responders are so critical to freedom. However, these defenders of freedom are only effective if we have the right politicians leading them. We are starting to see more and more government agencies being used against Americans. Voting the right people into office is far better then just saying thank you to our military and police.
Can totally see why this young woman would want something so tangible and relatable ( American ) such as Seal team 6 to come in and rescue her and the other hostages although it didn't quite happen that way she and all the other's that made it out were extremely fortunate a serving member of one of the world's most feared and respected tier one special forces units 22nd special air service regiment just happened to be in that city at the same time it all went down as she mentioned there was no one else.
Now she is pro 2A, I wonder if the pistol she went with is the ZEV OZ9 that Chris helped to develop. That would be a cool connection for them both too. If her home defence was the black beard logo obi wan nairobi edition ZEV that would be so fitting.😃
With your interviewing skill/style and this woman's persona, you both could have made a fascinating hour without ever getting to Nairobi. Thank you both!
The sad part about this story was when she mentioned she had to pay 450 dollars for physiatrist an hour to help overcome her fears and ptsd. I'm British and ex soldier and I've had mental health issues and been for counselling which is free and can't get my head around the fact people have to pay for this service, hope she gets some relief as time goes by.
I so enjoyed listening to this. Though her story of the harrowing experience in Africa has always really affected me with the rescue. I was captivated with the beginning of her talk about Google... very interesting. I'm so glad she was saved
I’m interested in reading both for the different perspectives. Plus Craighead anticipates his being banned from publication by the censors. Idk why, but apparently his government considers him an enemy. Maybe behind the scenes they were the ones funding the terrorists for the attack. Nothing would surprise me about how dirty our corrupt governors are in world affairs.
Jack and Meyli should understand that CC was a highly skilled and experienced professional soldier, an SAS team leader accustomed to being given a task and completing it, determining the priorities, making decisive decisions, instructing his team, doing the task without innocent casualties, keeping his men safe, neutralising any threats. He was phoned by a friend asking for help so he did, arrived, armed, assessed and acted, primarily to get people out safely, acted as a team leader organising the unorganised and operated as a team of one inside the building, killed 2 nasties and suppressed 2 others into hiding, wounded. He stayed those 17 hours, attributed with saving 700, acted rogue solo doing what he was good at for hours before Kenyan special forces came and he stepped back to advise them. His biggest worries were acting without permission in a foreign country and in being shot by nervous friendlies. He also said that he operated flawlessly, a culmination of his army career's training and experience that perfectly prepared him for this moment, of 17 hours. Most true heroes are humble, unassuming, CC is no different, it was his job and he was good at it. He says that he has done 1,000 ops so I wouldn't tease him or ask him what his body count is.
What people seem to forget us that the SAS are trained to modify orders where appropriate, on assessing the situation he might have felt it would have saved time etc for him to lead the narobi special forces team as opposed to just advise. Chris Ryan did a similar thing in Brazil when he was teaching counter terrorism skills to BOPE, he was actually involved in several high importance raids.
I like it when people like Jessica Buchanan and Dr. Dilip Joseph (both rescued by SEAL Team 6) write books based on their experiences. Books like that always offer some unique perspective.
go check shawn ryan show just released and the part of him meeting a person he gives a ride to and he says may God bless you many times today. WHAT!!!!
There's a lot of great stuff here. I absolutely love how the reality of the world that few people like she experienced turned her into a true American patriot. The transformation from what she was ( which was fine) to what she became, the strength of heart she developed... it's powerful stuff. As a guy who would be considered a lesser version of Jack ( 0311), I got a little misty around my eyes.
@@calummacleod4416 lol not just the Scottish stop talking shit the MoD would of had some say init which would of involved English and Scottish but Sterling who led it was Scottish
Christian Craighead was not there shopping. A friend of his who was trapped in the Dusit complex called him to tell him a complex terrorist attack was underway and there was no police or security response and to please help. CC had his kit all set and was not far away at his own residence, jumped in his vehicle and went to the scene. Shawn Ryan has a riveting interview with Christian Craighead on his RUclips channel. CC remains very limited in what he can say due to the ridiculous UK Ministry of Defense shutting down his book publication or even speaking in detail under threat of imprisonment is absurd. Even with the limits on his level of disclosure, the 3+ hour interview is riveting. Another awesome interview is on Project-Archangel’s RUclips channel with another foreign expat - Slovenian operator named Dan Prastalo, who was in Kenya working as a private security contractor who also responded to the scene and joined up with Craighead on scene (never having met each other prior). The Prastalo interview is also awesome and he fills in some detail but limits it saying the one who deserves 80-90% of the credit and ability to tell the full details for the counter assault and rescue is Christian Craighead. CC remains barred still from detailed disclosure. Strongly recommend listening to both of those interviews which are riveting and compelling. There are some incredibly special and brave and good human beings out there in this world. Edit: Prastalo makes it clear that the Kenyan police and security forces played a very limited role in the operation, with a very small number of exceptions, and but for those exceptions there was a fairly widespread level of incompetence and even cowardice on the part of a lot of the Kenyan police/security forces. He had a bodycam on that recorded both video and audio of his actions including numerous instances of asking the Kenyan police forces to more actively help and they in a lot of cases did not. Yes, a few Kenyans helped - including a few armed civilians - but it was mostly Christian Craighead and a few other foreign expats who responded led and directed the response which was totally chaotic. Pastrala, who had lived for years in Kenya to that point had to eventually leave the country because the survivors accounts corroborated that the rescue and counterattack was not really done by the Kenyan police who were totally embarrassed by the truth and he feared they would set him up to be killed or arrested on false charges.
Chris is just like all the Regiment guys I have met, I have met quite a few who operated in the 80’s and took part in the Iranian embassy raid, They are all just calm and humble but tough, Chris reminds me of them the old school regiment lads.
I met Robin horsfall through martial arts gradings when I was a teenager (he was senior sensi to my sensi). I had no clue whatsoever about his day job until years later and the bbc doc about operation nimrod came out. I used to think why would he take the time, but it's clicked him teaching kids self discipline, good behaviour, morals and control through martial arts helps the next generation so it's part of his "service mentality".
I love how Google has the one line manifesto 'Dont be Evil'. Perhaps Google should Google 'evil' to recheck their boundaries. Anyway I Google a lot. More importantly, great interview!!
Saw Christian do an interview and thankfully he just went and did and operated in the grey area of they haven't given permission but they also havent said no.
I think the fact his job in Nairobi was to advise helped in regard to that grey area, If I remember correctly chris Ryan was "advising" bope in Brazil. He actually went on and took part in raids with them.
What an amazing interview, and what an amazing story. It always gives me hope to hear heroic stories like this, and it was really powerful hearing her talk becoming proud of the armed forces and feeling so patriotic. We really are lacking that heroic masculinity, and the love of country that comes from realizing the sacrifices made in order to shield everyday people from the brutality of the world. Also i love that shes pro gun now, we need to win the hearts of people especially the youth if we want to keep the 2nd amendment. All it will take is one generation who dont understand the constitution to vote our rights into oblivion.
Great interview and a great book. Her story is amazing, all of it, including the recovery. In the audio one thing stood out to me immediately, she was talking about the completely wrong media coverage she learned of later. In it, imo, they clearly edited out the term "fake news" and instead used a thesaurus word salad phrase instead, to avoid any connection to what has been a 7 year proven history of that phrase.

Christian straight up told Shawn Ryan he should have Meyli on the show. That says a lot.

Jack and Meyli should understand that CC was a highly skilled and experienced professional soldier, an SAS team leader accustomed to being given a task and completing it, determining the priorities, making decisive decisions, instructing his team, doing the task without innocent casualties, keeping his men safe, neutralising any threats.
He was phoned by a friend asking for help so he did, arrived, armed, assessed and acted, primarily to get people out safely, acted as a team leader organising the unorganised and operated as a team of one inside the building, killed 2 nasties and suppressed 2 others into hiding, wounded.

Yes, a few Kenyans helped - including a few armed civilians - but it was mostly Christian Craighead and a few other foreign expats who responded led and directed the response which was totally chaotic. Pastrala, who had lived for years in Kenya to that point had to eventually leave the country because the survivors accounts corroborated that the rescue and counterattack was not really done by the Kenyan police who were totally embarrassed by the truth and he feared they would set him up to be killed or arrested on false charges.
Chris is just like all the Regiment guys I have met, I have met quite a few who operated in the 80’s and took part in the Iranian embassy raid, They are all just calm and humble but tough, Chris reminds me of them the old school regiment lads.
I met Robin horsfall through martial arts gradings when I was a teenager (he was senior sensi to my sensi). I had no clue whatsoever about his day job until years later and the bbc doc about operation nimrod came out. I used to think why would he take the time, but it's clicked him teaching kids self discipline, good behaviour, morals and control through martial arts helps the next generation so it's part of his "service mentality".
What an amazing woman.
Jack I would one day LOVE to attend Thunder Ranch with you!!! Meeting YOU and Mr Smith would be the ultimate rush!!!
How to write a book about spending 17 hours in a bathroom?
I love how Google has the one line manifesto
'Dont be Evil'.
Perhaps Google should Google 'evil' to recheck their boundaries.
Anyway I Google a lot.
More importantly, great interview!!
Cool book Meyli🇺🇸..
So ironic that in the Land of the Free, getting help would make most people bankrupt
Christian Craighead should never have to buy a beer again!
Saw Christian do an interview and thankfully he just went and did and operated in the grey area of they haven't given permission but they also havent said no.
I think the fact his job in Nairobi was to advise helped in regard to that grey area, If I remember correctly chris Ryan was "advising" bope in Brazil. He actually went on and took part in raids with them.
What an amazing interview, and what an amazing story. It always gives me hope to hear heroic stories like this, and it was really powerful hearing her talk becoming proud of the armed forces and feeling so patriotic. We really are lacking that heroic masculinity, and the love of country that comes from realizing the sacrifices made in order to shield everyday people from the brutality of the world. Also i love that shes pro gun now, we need to win the hearts of people especially the youth if we want to keep the 2nd amendment. All it will take is one generation who dont understand the constitution to vote our rights into oblivion.
I wish Hollywood could produce a film off that book...
I got the book: it's excellent!
meyli chapin is very brave alonside christian craighead.
Great interview and a great book. Her story is amazing, all of it, including the recovery. In the audio one thing stood out to me immediately, she was talking about the completely wrong media coverage she learned of later. In it, imo, they clearly edited out the term "fake news" and instead used a thesaurus word salad phrase instead, to avoid any connection to what has been a 7 year proven history of that phrase.
You want the best ... you call the SAS
The Shawn Ryan Show has the full interview with Christian Craighead.
I Hope the app comes on to android as well soon
