      @@John-te4ej Thanks very much, the aim is to eventually get to the point where we release once a week, we do have a few scripts already written and loads of ideas written down but finding motivation is something im struggling with at the moment. The current plan is to just make as many videos we can when we have the motivation and then schedule them for months ahead which will give us plenty of time to work on the next batch.

      @@John-te4ej i guess it depends how much time i have on a weekend, thankfully being at university means i have a lot of free time so I could easily make them midweek if I could be motivated to. Also thanks for the suggestions, I've got another channel that's pretty decently sized where we did a lot of the stuff that you have suggested, however the main issue is that the other channel was much simpler to make content for. I believe if i could just make more videos for this channel then it could be as big as my other one :)

    It takes 8 years to be a SAS member. Minimum 3 years of service in the Army, Navy or Air Force. Than 1 year of extensive training and tests and if you pass there is another 4 years of apprenticeship. After minimum of 8 years you will become proper SAS warrior. So it is a long process.

      It's the rules unfortunately, however you can always try to contact the army via their website. Another thing is you can't just join the regular SAS, unlike the reserve SAS. You either have to be picked by them if they see potential, or you can ask to go through selection, and this is only after you have served a couple of years in the army already.
