    When Billy caught the contestant lying about being in the Parachute Regiment. I thought Ant Middleton was going to kill that kid. Great guest, great human being. Jack you never disappoint.

    What an inspiring story. A very humble man and typical self deprecating sense of humour. Especially his comments about making it through Jungle Training phase. To go from a troubled childhood to the Paras then onto the S.A.S. and rising to the pinnacle as the RSM. Will definitely be giving his biography a read.

    Been sharing this episode to a bunch of friends already it's so good... 40 minutes in discovering they both served in the same SF compound working on the same mission... I had the pleasure of meeting Billy Billingham in June this year in the Brecon Beacons at a loadbearing endurance event and he's a true gent. What you see is what you get. Thanks both for this great content!

    I loved every second of this talk with Billy boy Billingham. Ain't he an amazing guy, who is highly decorated for his service. I actually live roughly 12 miles away from were that amazing knife was made in Sheffield. I was glued every second on this one buddy. I've got tickets to see Mark Billingham in the new year, and Jason Fox few months after so looking forward to meeting them both. I have massive respect for you Jack, your an awesome guy, a great genuine amazing guy who I've upmost respect for. Keep up the amazing work, and I'm going to grab one of your books, now I've done marks, Ollie ollerton, Jason Fox and Ant Middleton's. Mark Billingham for me has a great audible book, what a guy. I've not done SF, I did serve in the infantry for 9 years, totally loved it, regret leaving at times, just because I knew I could have pushed myself to a higher level. Love, peace and respect to all Veterans, and serving were ever you are. Thanks Jack for such great channel, big thanks for your service. Top guy💪🏻🇬🇧🇺🇸👍🏻

      Another thing about Jungle Phase is the DS are dead serious about strict water discipline and staying hydrated. The intense tropical heat and humidity sucks water out of a person like crazy. You had better be carefully properly monitoring and maintaining your water intake because you succumb to dehydration and pass out, you will be in deep shit with the DS. You don't want them to take notice of you in a negative light. They see that as very bad form and poor discipline after they have clearly instructed and warned you about water policy. Pass out once, you are on their shit list. Pass out twice...pack your shit, you're going to RTU.
