- More than 150 British Army paratroopers have been conducting joint parachuting exercises with Jordanian Special Forces, with the aim of making allies and adversaries take notice.
Second Battalion the Parachute Regiment, part of 16 Air Assault Brigade, flew from RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus and parachuted out of two C130 Hercules over Jordan.
@SianGrz joined them.

You’ve got to admire the British military. They’ve been doing it so well for so long. The Iron Duke, Monty and Churchill would nod their heads in admiration at these young blokes doing their job, without fuss or fanfare. Let’s not forget, too, the pride they provide for their mums and dads, sisters and brothers and wives and kids. From a fourth generation Australian, who is VERY proud of his English heritage.
No one cares.
Australia should come under the control of the motherland
@@Zoomer_Analysis Imbecile.
Brigadier is basically one star general, jumping with the lads? Damn. The one I have met sat in air-condition office pushing pencils and fine dining in the officer mess haha 😂
If you're the top bloke of the paras and can't jump you're a joke. That's why he's there proving himself to his men
@@brandonmutton2971 I'm not judging his ability to jump 😂 I'm commending his willingness to. The General I knew could probably kick my arse but I'm just saying I've never once seen him out in the field, only in the office and parade square, so I respect this brigadier
@@PB-hr3hy brigadiers are a field officer & not a general officer (but yes 1 star) so I’d think this would be expected. Either way good stuff from the Bois
Back in the 90s it was not uncommon for me to be sitting across from the 101st CG and base Sgt Major
@@brandonmutton2971 do all para generals do it? That’s his point.
Top bloke or not, there would be some who don’t jump @ brigadier or major general level, & they’re still top lads, do what gives.
I remember when i was in Aldershot RCT Driver, would get flagged down a lot by the Para lads when they were on their runs to give them a lift as long as no one was watching, so they could knock a few miles off their runs. Don't matter what regiment you were, if you could get one over the army you would do.
A true lad you are, from the bottom of our hearts thank you
No point in the run then , and how did the pti,s let this happen.
cheers dits
Awesome stuff Britain 🇬🇧!!! Love our British brothers from America 🇺🇸!!!
Half the paratroopers in this video are Jordanian , give them some credit too
Respect from Jordan 🇯🇴🤝🇬🇧
Respect 🇯🇴 from 🇬🇧
The UK has a long history with Jordan. A wonderful snapshot is, Soldier with the Arabs. It was published in the late 40s or early 50s. This was a time for great change in the Middle East. It's out of print but worth finding and reading.
Funny they spend millions of woke adverts and recruiting, yet this video is a much better advert for the armed forces.
brits using american tech,smmh
“Its ok to cry” 😂😂😂the military advertisements are a joke
"woke" adverts? because they showed a woman soldier? lol
@Harry Harry grow up
@Harry Harry oh noo I’m a white man who feels a tiny amount of hesitancy about my demographic !! Noooo lol I think white men will be just fine
Paratroopers got tons of balls ive seen people break their legs dropping down imagine that happening in combat absolutely terrifying
400+ jumps here...I've seen exactly *2* broken legs....I don't know where you saw that...
you only break your legs if you dont follow your training.
@@Old299dfk unlikely they’re all from not following training, for example is a fatality from a gun malfunctioning and exploding a death from lack of training or a failure of equipment, id say there’s definitely cases of faulty equipment causing these as well.
@@andrewrice4513 I broke my back the first time I jumped. I was too embarrased to tell anyone. I keep it quite and carried on.
@@gingerbaker4390
My hero. 🤡
I remember when doing my first parachute jump, Sargent says to me “Don’t worry if the chute doesn’t open, the ground will break your fall “…
Charming.
Would’ve liked to see the landing and the exercises with the Jordanians
It's great to see young guys of today keeping up the rolls of our veterans.
brings back many happy memories from my younger days, served with the paras for a few years
The Paras are better than most countries' special forces.
Paras are tough. Very good lads the ones I’ve met. 👍
🇬🇧👍AMAZING GUY's well done . I am Ex-Infantry my self . But a BIG 👍UP to Fella's AWESOME 🇬🇧👍
I remember watching them in 1978? at RAF LYNHAM. It was a large night excercise and if I remember right all three battalions were dropping. I was a dog handler patrolling the flight line. 20+ Hercs taxing out and taking off into the night sky , the sight and the sound of all those engines was incredible. I also remember watching the sticks of paras enplane from the hangers. I could not believe how much kit those men were carrying, awestruck is an understatement. A truly incredible sight,
Well done guys!. Anyone else notice the US. 82nd patch?
yeah, I was wondering about that too. Most likely he swapped patches with someone on an exchange program.
Yep I saw that as well! Always good to see my beloved patch! AATW!
Definitely Caught My Eye.
@@vectors2final36 we have blokes on the exchange program at Colchester. He was probably American.
I saw that too. you confused for it bit
It's good to have something to make you proud to be British. Ubique, Brothers 👍
Say what you want, but this is a really well put together video. More of the same required
Great stuff - really impressive - thanks for sharing!
Brilliant stuff. Hope the exercise goes off without a hitch.
Thanks uk🇯🇴❤🇬🇧
🇬🇧♥️🇯🇴
UK Beast Mode👊
2 Hercs! Remember when there were over 30 on exercise!
Wouldn't get me doing that, even when I was much younger. All the best to the paras and their allies Stay safe
I really respect your honesty
@@sneakypeacock8394 Thank you. I'd love to do something like this but am scared og heights. Even standing on a chair gets me wobbly-kneed.
@Spooky gnu Congratulations om jumping out of a plane 7 times!!! At 68 though and with certain health probs, I don't think it would be wise. (they'd end up tossing me out to stop listening to my gibbering wreck. I admire you for wha
t you have done and thank you for sharing
@Spooky gnu Believe it or not mate, I was the same and now I Drive a Tower crane on a Building site.
@@joekidd9456 You got some bottle to climb those ladders on them cranes 200 feet up
Love those front-loading Reserves brings back a few memories.
Fore and aft gear with 'Capewells'. The stuff of legends!
Wow Hercs!!! State of the art in 1954!!!! Yes, 1954... that is an amazing antique... love the antique road show!!!
Yes it was a longtime to get rid of the Hastings and be able to jump from the Hercules. At least the Argosy was a good "Stand-in".
" In the small hours, 150 Paras will soon be inside Jordan"...... I'd say that's a conservative estimate...
I see what you did there. Very good lol. On reflection a good night had by all.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖
GREAT to see thumbs up and shared.
Respect👊🏻
Great upload. Thanks for sharing.
Go on lads massive respect
3 am in the morning as opposed to 3 am in the evening? Just want to make sure.
3am is in the morning, so the time your likely to be sleeping at
12 midnight onwards is considered a new day so yes 3 am in the morning. Evening is usually 7pm to 12 midnight. Not sure about where your from though, maybe you were taught differently
Lol.
You numpties. She said 3 am in the morning, as if there's more than one 3 am per day. I'm laughing at that making it through the editorial process. That's almost as funny as you guys not picking up on it.
@@percyfaith11 I thought her fudging her line was funny enough, but turns out these comments are even funnier!
Jordan has no enemies.Respect Jordan from Turkey
Good luck lads be safe👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍
Doh..
I thought they were going to dive into Katey Price
..
LOL
No government would ok a operation into that kind of toxic environment, it would be a war crime
They are fearless...but not stupid!
Well done lads
Wish we could see what happened after the drop. Apart from that I love the vid like all of them.
ALL IN A DAYS WORK FOR OUR FORCES , MY RESPECT AND THANKS FOR KEEPING US SAFE 👌🙏🙏🇬🇧🇺🇸
They're not keeping you safe, they're keeping British interests safe. while the individual soldiers may care about you, the missions they're sent on are not in your interest at all
And you’d know this how?
@@mickydrippin3105 because our countries are run by lobbyists and politicians who have monetary goals and war is especially profitable when you have your fingers dipped into arms manufacturing businesses
Someone go and turn the brigadiers blanking plate the right way round.
I wonder if the Padre jumped with them to? Normally do.
Much respect all round.
The CSG and this. Big amount of power on display
Also shame we have scrapped most of our Hercules aircraft and will be scrapping these ones too…
What’s the replacement
@@4TheWinQuinn nothing. A400 atlas’s isnt certified to para drop, we need these hercs aircraft for tactical drops and they have and do serve us well and our Special forces. Shame we’ve lost so many and only have 14 left that will be sold cheap to ashithole nation like Bangladesh like some of our other hercs.
What have those transport planes being replaced with?
@@1anre a400s but they can’t para drop just now.
@@bulletproofguy5112 why’s that? They can ascend to the needed height no? And have multiple exit doors on both sides right?
I think we may need more of them in the near future
Utrinque paratus well done boys keep up the good work the jump order has never changed since my day made the hairs on my arms stand up. I’d do it all again no regrets
Class!
0:17 the bloke hanging out the door has airpods in
🤣 nice try
Pathfinders got to be the best in the elite forces
I miss the 80s moustaches, crab air seems the same tho
2 Para-legends 🙌🏻 💪🏻🪂
2 Para organized a Free Fall course in Aden in 1966. Based in Bahrein it made for a break from routine , even though Aden was not exactly a peaceful location. We all enjoyed the early morning flight's in the Army Air Corps Beavers. Our Instructor was a former member of the Red Devil's Team , Ray Etchel , R.I.P.
you can clearly see the Brigadier General is exhausted
Impressive
Do they jump with their rifles?
Yes, other wise when they land they can’t fight
I thought they only had handguns and rifles were dropped separately?
@@lucasdalli3256 where do they carry them when they jump?
@@teilohow3561 packed in bags disassembled or packed without ammunition loaded
@@teilohow3561 Only time paratroopers of any nation did that was in WW2
British Military Forces....Still the best in the World.....Bar NONE.
now now, dont be bold
keep dreaming colin
Can you tell me what military force in the World is better?
@@colinsmith6116 yes russia
You HAVE to be bleeding joking. They like the Chinese have lots of troops, most of whom are back in the feudal days.
Wow - that warning by the CO was pretty harsh - is this something that has to be read out prior to paras jumping?
That’s right, the briefing is standard and SOP
In the US Army it is. Different wording but pretty much the same thing. Only thing that was added is that you will be ordered not to touch your equipment.
Yes. Its called a green light warning order.
Yeah, I thought so too. Like he was barking at raw recruits.
I said so too and came in for a mixed response.
3 am in the morning!
I'm no expert by any means, but I seriously can't imagine any modern weapon systems allowing a move like that to be carried out unless the stars aligned.
1:51 How come the badges on his left shoulder seem to be rotated by 90 degrees?
officers for you
When his hands are up to surrender the badge will be in the correct orientation.
All the gear no idea
“We are talking to anyone trying to destabilise the region”
Israel ?
Islam.
@@alexsmart5452 the only one who is doing bad stuff is Isreal
Do the paras still have a parachute jump as part of their basic training? Or is it an add on? Weird question I know but I’d heard that not all paras have jump wings….
I believe once they’ve completed depot training (P Comany) at Catterick they’ll arrive at Merville without any wings and will then be loaded onto a jumps course at Brize. From my experience there was quite the waiting list to get onto your jumps but 2 & 3 para had priority as it’s their bread and butter. I did P Comapny and waited 7 years to get onto my jumps as I wasn’t serving with an Airborne unit, so I was a penguin for quite some time.
@@richardp4776 : cheers
@@jujitusuka no dramas 🤙🏼
It’s bullshut everyone has wings for the ones that don’t they are waiting for there course
You ruined the entire clip by admonishing/threatening a "non jumper" during a brief and on camera. These guy's know this already, whats your point?. I guess your medal is already in writing aye mate.
It's a legal requirement.
Done before jumps
Really!!! we worked on the theory that if you are in the first dozen or so and Debussing a C47 in 15 seconds the guys behind will make sure you go out the door 😂😂😂
@@victornewman9904 it’s not a legal requirement of a forces media video is it though
Even the most seasoned trooper must twitch when you only have 800 feet to play with, so the warning is unsurprising.
No markings on the c130 ?
You almost feel sorry for the enemies. Almost.
2 Para make me worry, and I'm British.
I did always wonder how you make 2 Para actually do anything.
As this video shows, their CO reads them the riot act before every excercise.
Doubt it’s eveytime. They seem to like this sort of rigor + the holiday in Cyprus first of all.
Imagine not being able to get all your jumps done , and you are flown out to Cyprus, and do.them all . Sheer heaven 👍
At about the :51 mark I see an 82nd Airborne patch. I thought this was about 2 Para's?
3 a.m. ‘in the morning’; how many other a.m.s are there?
2 if you count Zulu.
Oh really scary the capability of dropping a few paras from a single Hercules don’t think enemies are scarier by that. If was the entire 16th air assault brigade in one go that would be different but with cuts it’s not even a full brigade.
They are airbourne soldiers you might have noticed it in the title.
150 Paras can deal a fair chunk of damage.
800ft drop??? Paras are....(words fail me)
Here we go, Here we Go, Sand Fast.🇬🇧😇
Lame. They didnt even show the descent
🇬🇧❤
Years ago I dined at a Jordanian Officer mess and there was a nice photo of the Queen on the wall.
Great lads, but the Herc is getting the chop....but why?
Wait wha...... 800 foot drop ? Jesus the chute barely has time to deploy 🤔
Liverpool lads!
how prepared are they for enemy's within the state ?
" it's just before 3 am in the morning ". Hmmm
800 ft? Damn, that's a couple of swings and then impact. No room or time to recover from a mistake. Yikes!
And reason for such a brief opening window ?
@@1anre They jumped from 800 feet altitude...
@@GM-fh5jp that’s what I asked you the purpose of picking that height
@@1anre It reduces the exposure of the transport aircraft to radar as it's flying low and also limits the exposure of the very vulnerable parachutists to ground fire while they are swinging in their chutes as they are on the ground litterally seconds from exiting the aircraft.
Also it drastically increases jump accuracy as the parachutists have little time to be swept away by prevailing winds
Some high level drops have seen men scattered over a wide area,sometimes miles from the target and in small easy to defeat groups whereas a low level jump puts all the men in a tight pattern over the target.
hell yeah Paratroopers hooah!
is very good l like it
My old regiment hello brothers
Airborne Brotherhood leading the way
Interesting, an 82nd Airborne SSI at 0:52 time stamp.
I know they do exchange programs so that actually might be an American from 82nd 🇺🇸
@@Foxtrottangoabc While true to the most part, an American in the exchange program would be wearing it as a FWTS SSI (i.e. combat patch). An American in the exchange program would not have to be from the 82nd or even have been assigned to the 82nd, they could have been previously assigned to say the 173rd Airborne Brigade, or the 4th IBCT(Abn) of the 25th Infantry Division. And in the exchange program on either side, they usually wear the appropriate SSI of the unit that they are assigned to, i.e. the 16th Air Assault Brigade insignia or on the flip side the insignia of say the 18th Abn Corp or 82nd SSI.
@@RWebster325 thanks 👍
5:48 The patch with the black horse, on the guy's left arm sleeve, can anybody tell me what it is ?
🇯🇴Jordan
Interesting: no obvious weapons
1:27 he still thinks it's 1982?
wow, not a great look that you have to threaten the troops before they go fight for you.
no threat just a brief they’re obliged to give prior to a jump, i’m sure they began after there was some kind of incident of a non jumper
Its actually called The Green Light warning. Once you are parachute trained and excepted your wings you are obliged. Its read out before every jump.
6:15 and that message specifically: 'do not f*** with The Paras.'
For some reason I kept hearing: "16 Airsoft Brigade"
Yeah. Or the "16th Aerosol Brigade". :'D
@@TrueChell Ya, thats what it sounds like too! :D
does the brig have his patches the wrong way around? is this common practice or something?
Arakan
Not exactly Market Garden, is it.
Well market garden involved 10,000 men
that carrier strike group looks so sad
Bit like South Cerney...150 blokes trying to kip in a building interrupted by the dawn chorus of early morning farts..😁😁
800 ft is not low, we went out at 650ft years ago. (ex para)
Ex (para)noid here jumped at 400ft
As a Rhodesian in my mid 60’s 650ft is not low either. We op jumped between 500-550ft with FN or MAG (GPMG) strapped to our sides and a Beretta or Star 9mm tucked behind the reserve…..you were never going to use that anyway unless releasing and climbing down it if stuck in a tree 😂. Respect to anyone standing waiting for the light to turn green. Stand up, hook up, check equipment. Like it was yesterday. Death from the Sky. Stay safe lads and keep your head down. Respect and thanks 🙏🇬🇧
@@bulletproofguy5112 - not on a UK 'chute you didn't, we don't have any cleared for that height.
I was on JADTEU for a couple of years and the lowest height we had cleared was individual jumpers was 500ft with the lowest for mass jumps being 600ft.
A decent video for a change 👍
Well done to her magesty & allied friends..
🎉
Don't think the lads wouldn't jump,and certainly don't need that kind of rubbish from the CO..real morale booster!🙄
it' a standard thing before any jump.the stick commander all ways says it .but i have jumped once or twice when someone forgot.
00:54 (ish) is that an American "AA" patch?
A handful
