I never once doubted that Lord Miles was okay. I knew he would be treated fairly, literally no reason for the Taliban to hurt him. But apparently it was even better than I thought, instead of being kept in a cushy cell he was chilling with Intelligence Officers, rubbing elbows with the Taliban leadership, and spitballing ideas to help rebuild the Afghan economy. What an absolute legend.
A British guy gets "held captive" by the Taliban for what was it, 8 months, and instead of being tortured and killed, he ends up being like... An unofficial part of their government. *Edit:* HE HAS IMMUNITY TOO?! DUDE! LEGEND! Tell me this like 6 years ago and I wouldn't believe you. That's how insane this is.
this guy is literally a modern day adventurer. Legit af. 8 months in Taliban custody, becomes friends taliban, chills with government officials, welcomed back with open arms. happens to the best of us. This is something that would be written down as part of a story of an EPIC or LEGEND of a character from history. Truly and legitimately the main character. PRAISE LORD MILES.
The only reason why he is a "LEGEND" to you, is berceuse you've been brainwashed to think that the Taliban are so dangerous and that they kill everything,,, bla bla,, the rest of the western propaganda the last 20 years. But if you put into perspective that the Taliban are actually good religious principled people that wouldn't harm you out of no where,, then you will understand that this is a normal treatment to anyone who came in contact with them.
Nice to finally hear from the man himself, so many "journalists" covering this story made you out to be human trash. Happy youre home safe and had an, overall, good time:)
Counter-petition for Callum to take Miles on his second tour of England's Englishness. Would be a hilarious juxtaposition to see Miles in Bibury (the town that was so pretty they had to put up signs that it's not a theme park), etc.

He looks insecure, like he's constantly thinking about how awkward he feels talking to a guy in Miles who's the complete opposite. Lord Miles shatters the little dough boys reality by simply existing and being chill.
It only took 200 years but a Brit has finally managed to “conquer” Afghan. Was it through military advancement or brutal diplomacy? No, it was because one slightly brain damaged brit managed to essentially befriend the Taliban and assist them in rebuilding a country. All we need Miles now is to essentially charisma build his way into becoming the new Royal Family of Afghanistan. Oh and Miles remember in your rebuilding effort, you need to teach them about British cuisine, show them the joys of the deep frier and chippies.
To be perfectly honest, if not for the neurotic chicken swinging ethno-religious supremacists in the tiny little hats, it is very very likely that most of the world could live in such peace. Unfortunately, we've got these paranoid inbred perverts, voraciously munching on mountains of baby D, inflaming ethnic and religious tension anywhere they possibly can, just to distract any attention from their own immoral and highly socially destructive behavior.
@@_marl3ne_ Could be. As far as I've been told, the Taliban generally frowns on that dancing boy nonsense, and tends to prosecute those who practice it. Not so surprisingly, it was mainly the warlords and such that western forces allied with who were doing that stuff. I've heard stories from guys who were over there. I'm sure you'll always have the "closet diddlers" though.
"We feared you were dead, but when we heard you've been taken by the Taliban we were like 'Oh thank Christ'" I laughed at this for more than a few reasons lol

Why does miles get so much hate? Every comment in news articles i saw was calling him a war tourist. Hows that differnt from regular journalism? Am i missing something
Because real journalism is VERY few and far-between. The media has manipulated and inserted fake journalists in the west for absolutely decades now to warp public perception, much less have people whom care not for the truth, but only the pursuit of the payday it brings. The mainsteam media (MSM), can, not, ever, be, trusted. Get this in your head and make sure everyone you know does as well, because most people still will not not learn.
I think the funniest part about this interview is that it’s completely convinced me that the King Lord Miles himself is genuinely autistic. Stay safe and have fun habibi. Go take a trip on the bird peddle boats in that one lake for us next time you’re there!

"turns out I met a load of CIA people". he had every incentive to snitch to his Tali-bros, frequent opportunities (set up by the Taliban) ,knew how much they got paid, which he learnt later and knew that by cooperating with them he is risking his life. I've never heard of this guy before, and a lot of people are very quick to believe every word he says, don't scrutinize him for normalizing and supporting a literal terrorist group, opening a gold mine in a 3rd world country ("1800s style goofing off" in his words), laughing about killing the American soldiers with the "sweet old man" who made bombs. if this isn't Stockholm's syndrome he is just a straight up terrorist. an "honorary member of the Mujahideen" is what he himself said. sitting with top generals evan. face timing them multiple times per week even after being released.

@@chumleyk I think it’s the opposite, he genuinely had an amazing time and got in on some incredible business opportunities in the process. He’s done several other interviews already discussing it, and posted photographic, and video proof of his claims. Cope.
People wonder how the British ruled like half of the world - I'll tell you plain and simple. It started with guys like this - few inhibitions, strongly held faith, a spirit of adventure, many other factors, and of course most importantly, business sense to apply.
Anyone confused about the ending? 46:38 It seems like miles thought they cut and said "you know i put on the act a little bit...if you just act like some chill Stoner dude that just goofed off"... weird it's almost like he's admitted he put on an act.. I hope he actually did have a good time and nothing bad happened. *EDIT* this part was edited out.
He would've had a Damoclesian sword hanging over him the entire time, no matter how otherwise pleasant. Definitely trauma to process. I wouldn't say he's faking anything per se, just probably emotionally pushing himself a bit more than he'd otherwise be inclined to atm.
That's wild, I couldn't even notice a cut. There's definitely a lot more to this than they're letting on. Can't have a charitable interpretation of that statement when it got cut out
YAAAAAAAAAS FINALLY! Seriously lad, if you read this, thanks for the closure we all wanted rather than the closure we all dreaded - a true educator and adventurer.
in a thousand years there will be some hill tribe in Afghanistan that will tell the tale of the time the great adventurer Lord Miles of some forgotten empire came and built for them the mines that led to their wealth and power, and he will be revered as a great man and an exemplar of the generous stranger.
Can you imagine if this guy ends up being the Foreign Minister to Afghanistan? Hey, I don't particularly hold the Taliban in high regards but, this guy managed more diplomacy in 6-12 months than the west or east did during their invasions
If they wanted to be diplomatic they could easily. You mistake the intention, everything is possible. Unfortunately billions are to be made using subterfuge and fuckery & many willing servants of evil.
well most of the west's diplomats are feminist lunatics or raging war hawks. Miles is more of a super old school westerner. he doesn't condemn the taliban's culture no matter what the normies/plebs are telling him to do. that's real courage and diplomacy.
If i went being a Army and never deployed to Afghanistan. Honestly Lord Miles is a legend. He became a Economic Adviser and achieved diplomatic statues.
its great to see miles back and Callum interviewing him it was such a blast watching the first Afghanistan video thanks for this Callum always a good laugh seeing you have fun here or in lotus eaters
i did some maths on miles gold mine idea based on the numbers he gave at 15:57 , roughly it works out at 5040 ounces of gold per year at around £8,209,630.80 GBP at current gold rates , minus running costs of around 500-800k that sounds like one hell of a profit margin to be had , he maybe onto something
Yeah from memory a feasible mine is ~1.5 grams to the tonne so if they're getting 15 grams on a big patch they'll be able to get golden Kalashnikovs next Christmas
I don't mean this in a bad way, but you two, are two of the craziest, coolest cats that I have ever had the pleasure to watch. Absolutely bonkers. I love it. Afghanistan needs more ppl like you, in their lives, I think! 😂 Big up to the Taliban for being decent chaps to you both. Especially to Miles, during his detention. Your videos make me want to visit Afghanistan 🙏
The Taliban leaned nothing from the US ways of interrogation. How do they want to be a developed nation without torture, waterboarding, abuse, 20 years in prison without a charge ? Mr. nice guy "we don't harm anyone" will serve you no good.
Darn, just missed the stream. Nevertheless, always nice to see you two guys having a bit of banter together, even if it's on the comfort of your own couch rather than Kabul.
I'm so glad Miles is okay! They have a warrior culture, but it sounds like if you walk the walk and talk the talk with them like one of them, then they can somewhat accept you. If you scare them or impress them, then they can respect you. Don't play the sycophant nor act a coward and they will treat you mostly as an equal. Be friendly, but only to show that you're not frightened. They recognized the traits in Miles that they admire, namely bravery. This is really fascinating. It's a strange reverse Four Lions situation. I commend Lord Miles, as always, for his courage and nonchalance in the face of potential mortal threat.
Pashtun warrior culture is way blown out of proportion by the Western media to turn these normal people into some sort of Ninja/Samurais of 21st century. Afghan Taliban might be slightly uptight at first, but these people have been at war for half century against two superpowers of our times, those KGB/CIA/Mossad memes have been a real thing in that country. Pashtun are chill people like any other ethnic group in this region, if you don't screw with them they are extremely friendly and loyal to the fault. Just be normal and friendly you will be fine.
This is absolute bs. Makes me understand how people can make up fantasies. I am from Pashtune from Pakistan and it's nothing like that there. They have a strong Islamic and honour based culture and if you respect them they will respect you. It's simple.
warrior culture? Yeah you mean the americans, right? Imagine being called a terrorist for defending your country and culture lmao. Damn bolshevick j3ws, man.
How many times do you think we would need to clone this dude to achieve world peace. He is just chilling with everyone and discovering gold like where this mine craft.
"COME BACK ANY TIME" The way Miles worded this made me imagine the Taliban as a fucking kindly Aunt of Grandmother after seeing the kids off- I had to pause the video for the tears of laughter.
Tali -bros can be an interesting reality tv show tbh😅 Also, based on some of your videos the country has good potential for tourism as it looks beautiful
What?! He got extremely lucky, make no mistake about it if you went wandering around afghanistan there is still a very high chance of being kidnapped and killed or sold off to another fanatical muslim group, risk it at your own peril
Well, most of the people might see him a bit... whacko but, he really seems to be genuinely nice guy. It kind of oozes out of him. Its like some sort of aura around him. Perhaps that is the main reason everything has gone so good for him.
guided tours of afghan would definitely be very profitable and great for PR, kinda like the north korean tours. a bit of a similar circumstance in both places, very unique business and social rules but not without opportunities not discounting the risks.

@@randacnam7321 Takes over Temple Mount, stops sectarian violence by converting everyone to Catholicism, declares Francis as Petrus Romanus, the pope destined to destroy Rome.
@@journeytoform I just attend the Latin mass and I can’t stand Vatican 2. I go to mass with the sspx.
Welcome back Lord Miles, very glad to see you safely home
This guy has maxed out his charisma to an other worldly level
Dang Miles looks hardened and thousand-yard-starey, despite keeping the trademark banter. You can clearly see he went in as the king of goofy danger adventures and came out all thugged out and a different man.
You tend to mimic what influences you surround yourself by
@@Devin7Eleven The next time we see him he’ll just announce he’s joining the Taliban lol
He left England as a boy, but returned as a taliMAN.
Stockholm syndrome's extreme version is Miles taliban syndrome
@@chumleyk I think it’s the opposite, he genuinely had an amazing time and got in on some incredible business opportunities in the process. He’s done several other interviews already discussing it, and posted photographic, and video proof of his claims. Cope.
I can’t wait for the next season of Callum and Miles
I'm at the point where I can't tell if this guy is an MI6 plant, or if he's just unfathomably based
Based. Miles is a legend, chilling with the Talibros.
Likely both
the latter.
Unfathomably autistic.
People wonder how the British ruled like half of the world - I'll tell you plain and simple. It started with guys like this - few inhibitions, strongly held faith, a spirit of adventure, many other factors, and of course most importantly, business sense to apply.
Can't wait for the 2074 film Miles of Afghanistan
Anyone confused about the ending? 46:38 It seems like miles thought they cut and said "you know i put on the act a little bit...if you just act like some chill Stoner dude that just goofed off"... weird it's almost like he's admitted he put on an act.. I hope he actually did have a good time and nothing bad happened.
*EDIT* this part was edited out.
He would've had a Damoclesian sword hanging over him the entire time, no matter how otherwise pleasant. Definitely trauma to process. I wouldn't say he's faking anything per se, just probably emotionally pushing himself a bit more than he'd otherwise be inclined to atm.
He put on an act for the Taliban.
That's wild, I couldn't even notice a cut. There's definitely a lot more to this than they're letting on. Can't have a charitable interpretation of that statement when it got cut out
@@LaughingMan44 100% I actually have it saved. Because I knew it would get edited out.
Of course the persona is a bit of an act, every entertainer does it. Those who seem the most genuine are just the very best of them.
Return of the king
YAAAAAAAAAS FINALLY!
Seriously lad, if you read this, thanks for the closure we all wanted rather than the closure we all dreaded - a true educator and adventurer.
This is NOT closure.
This is the beginning of .......?..........😮
in a thousand years there will be some hill tribe in Afghanistan that will tell the tale of the time the great adventurer Lord Miles of some forgotten empire came and built for them the mines that led to their wealth and power, and he will be revered as a great man and an exemplar of the generous stranger.
Legend. Straight up.
Miles would've loved being English in the 1800s
Can you imagine if this guy ends up being the Foreign Minister to Afghanistan?
Hey, I don't particularly hold the Taliban in high regards but, this guy managed more diplomacy in 6-12 months than the west or east did during their invasions
If they wanted to be diplomatic they could easily. You mistake the intention, everything is possible. Unfortunately billions are to be made using subterfuge and fuckery & many willing servants of evil.
well most of the west's diplomats are feminist lunatics or raging war hawks. Miles is more of a super old school westerner. he doesn't condemn the taliban's culture no matter what the normies/plebs are telling him to do. that's real courage and diplomacy.
If i went being a Army and never deployed to Afghanistan. Honestly Lord Miles is a legend. He became a Economic Adviser and achieved diplomatic statues.
One of the sickest interviews to date. Great stuff
The greatest consequence of the American Revolution was that we lost the great English tradition of Pancake Day.
The tourism website should cater to bachelor parties.
I attended a bachelor party in Jordan and it was great
Miles really is the main character.
its great to see miles back and Callum interviewing him it was such a blast watching the first Afghanistan video thanks for this Callum always a good laugh seeing you have fun here or in lotus eaters
What a fucking legend, like legit a modern legend.
Guy is a madman. Respect honestly
i did some maths on miles gold mine idea based on the numbers he gave at 15:57 , roughly it works out at 5040 ounces of gold per year at around £8,209,630.80 GBP at current gold rates , minus running costs of around 500-800k that sounds like one hell of a profit margin to be had , he maybe onto something
Yeah from memory a feasible mine is ~1.5 grams to the tonne so if they're getting 15 grams on a big patch they'll be able to get golden Kalashnikovs next Christmas
afghans are not good in with units and numbers. i wouldn't risk my money on it.
@@timucintarakc2281 He said it was based on some US survey.
Big Love from Texas, Thank you for all you do boys.
I don't mean this in a bad way, but you two, are two of the craziest, coolest cats that I have ever had the pleasure to watch. Absolutely bonkers. I love it. Afghanistan needs more ppl like you, in their lives, I think! 😂 Big up to the Taliban for being decent chaps to you both. Especially to Miles, during his detention. Your videos make me want to visit Afghanistan 🙏
The Taliban leaned nothing from the US ways of interrogation. How do they want to be a developed nation without torture, waterboarding, abuse, 20 years in prison without a charge ? Mr. nice guy "we don't harm anyone" will serve you no good.
While this was a fun conversation for you for sure, this was the best content I have seen the whole month. Thank you so much
Miles is opening the gates to rebuilding the British Empire. 😂
Miles just laid out phase four of the Lord Miles Cinematic Universe.
This guy is a legend, a total tripper but a legendary one
>be miles
>get sent to hell
>"so anyway I was goofing off in the bottomless pit then I pointed an RPG at the devil, he found it hilarious"
glad to hear about our lord safe and well. thanks for all the effort you put in to staying in contact with this mad lad
Darn, just missed the stream. Nevertheless, always nice to see you two guys having a bit of banter together, even if it's on the comfort of your own couch rather than Kabul.
They have couches at home...... in Khabul
@@greatestytcommentator more like pillows and rugs innit
Never forget thë USS Liberty and the men who died on that day
This dude isn’t on the spectrum he is the spectrum
"You are spy for our enemies, see you say you are Mossad agent, CIA agent"
"Nah it's just a joke"
"Can't argue with that"
I'm so glad Miles is okay! They have a warrior culture, but it sounds like if you walk the walk and talk the talk with them like one of them, then they can somewhat accept you. If you scare them or impress them, then they can respect you. Don't play the sycophant nor act a coward and they will treat you mostly as an equal. Be friendly, but only to show that you're not frightened. They recognized the traits in Miles that they admire, namely bravery. This is really fascinating. It's a strange reverse Four Lions situation. I commend Lord Miles, as always, for his courage and nonchalance in the face of potential mortal threat.
You just described Pashtunwali, their code of ethics
Pashtun warrior culture is way blown out of proportion by the Western media to turn these normal people into some sort of Ninja/Samurais of 21st century. Afghan Taliban might be slightly uptight at first, but these people have been at war for half century against two superpowers of our times, those KGB/CIA/Mossad memes have been a real thing in that country.
Pashtun are chill people like any other ethnic group in this region, if you don't screw with them they are extremely friendly and loyal to the fault. Just be normal and friendly you will be fine.
This is absolute bs. Makes me understand how people can make up fantasies.
I am from Pashtune from Pakistan and it's nothing like that there.
They have a strong Islamic and honour based culture and if you respect them they will respect you. It's simple.
White british men have been disarmed for so long but people like miles once ran 1/4 of the world.
warrior culture? Yeah you mean the americans, right? Imagine being called a terrorist for defending your country and culture lmao. Damn bolshevick j3ws, man.
I didn't know about this happening to Miles at all. What a story.
Where u neen living under a rock 😂
Great stuff, wonderful to see folks helping what debatably some of the damage we caused the past 60 years.
I’m so glad Miles is alive. Can’t wait for the new adventures
Jamming out to system of a down with the taliban sounds worth it.
I can tell he learned live streaming from Sargon.
⌚ Eurôpa the last battlë
How many times do you think we would need to clone this dude to achieve world peace. He is just chilling with everyone and discovering gold like where this mine craft.
human capybara
"COME BACK ANY TIME"
The way Miles worded this made me imagine the Taliban as a fucking kindly Aunt of Grandmother after seeing the kids off- I had to pause the video for the tears of laughter.
He's insane.
In a good way.
Miles singlehandedly just motivated me and likely many other men to look into both investment banking and the mining industry. Madlad
Awesome sound quality, I feel like Im listening to someone talking in the bathroom, through closed door.
I thought he died, great to hear that he's not actually beheaded
What would it take for Miles to become our Ambassidor to Afghanistan?
Lord Miles could geniunely have a movie made about his life, let alone his time in Afghanistan.
What would they call it Billy Bulls***
Tali -bros can be an interesting reality tv show tbh😅
Also, based on some of your videos the country has good potential for tourism as it looks beautiful
⌚ Eurôpa the last battlë
I wanna ski in afghanistan
What?! He got extremely lucky, make no mistake about it if you went wandering around afghanistan there is still a very high chance of being kidnapped and killed or sold off to another fanatical muslim group, risk it at your own peril
I'm so happy to see that these young lads have met each other's soulmates so early on. They will have such a wonderful life together. I'm jealous.
Man litterally gets held captive by the Taliban and then bake Pancakes and play Cod with them. That has to be the most chill thing ever lmaoo
Great to see that he's really back. Truly an absolute madlad, Miles is.
Glad to see Miles is back and safe at least, love his videos. Next stop Gaza i reckon?
Well, most of the people might see him a bit... whacko but, he really seems to be genuinely nice guy.
It kind of oozes out of him. Its like some sort of aura around him. Perhaps that is the main reason everything has gone so good for him.
Absolute GOAT mad lad. Much love and respect m'Lord
That is really some 1800s future billionaire style goofing off
I look forward to his Biography "Kilometres". Cheers for the interview, Callum.
Callum get yourself a new lounging shirt in a bigger size my man.
Glad to see Miles is back home safe
I thought you’d left this mortal realm . Very happy you’re loved by the Taliban .
Stay safe 💜
guided tours of afghan would definitely be very profitable and great for PR, kinda like the north korean tours. a bit of a similar circumstance in both places, very unique business and social rules but not without opportunities not discounting the risks.
Thank you, Lord, for keeping this young man safe! 🙏
What a pair of absolute muppets
Great to see Miles home, great chat!
