- In this episode of ‘Minutes With’, we sat down with Chris Fuller, a former British Army Bomb Disposal Officer, who now does humanitarian work in the Middle East defusing bombs left behind ISIS.
Chris talks to us about defusing bombs in the centre of London, and the difference between working in the UK and abroad. He then tells one of the most incredible stories we've ever heard in this series, when he describes his method for defusing an ISIS IED.

Underrated comment
Greatest comment on this video hands down 🤣
Bantz😂😂
Don't we all?
That made me laugh, thanks :D
The fact that he is still completely intact tells me he really knows what he’s doing.
Agreed, but there's gotta be a lot of luck involved too.
If he didn't see something by accident, it's kaboom.
You cant see his feet...
Polar Bear 🤣🤣
Agreed
Or else hes never done it and it's all a lie.... just kidding I agree hes clearly good at his craft if hes still intact.
The amount of steel balls needed to do this job is insane.
I wonder if he has ever even had sweaty palms
@@sosig8332 everytime you wear gloves to collect evidence 😉
And the amount of steel ball-bearing's you could get in-bedded in your skull if you get it wrong is also insane.
That's what the bomb maker said too 😕
Get your real balls blasted off by a bomb? Just replace them with steel balls.
Fair fucks to ladbible for making this stuff. This is proper journalism, the people watching are free to make up their own minds. Humility and realism, no bragging about heroism, no nationalism, just one brave human being helping another. Empathy is not something usually celebrated, especially in war. It's beautiful to see.
Humbled am I. McIntyre
Couldnt of put it better
It is a fantastic series, and the replying to comments follow up they do.
@I need more constructive outlets Ahh, the good old days, when Vice reporters weren't snarky hipsters.
I know 'fair play to you,' but 'fair fucks' is a really strange idiom.
'Be wary of old Men in professions where boys die young'
What a gripping interview, I'd like a full hour of this guy.
I wish he`d have his own youtube channel. I would have a ton of questions.
He's actually 21 - it's just the stress
I wouldn't be wary of this guy, especially if he was the person teaching me to do his job, I would listen very carefully to every word he has to say, because he obviously knows what he is doing.
Agreed! I wished him a good healthy life! God blesses the peacekeepers!
He’s definitely got lot more story’s that he won’t say on camera
Can’t say

When things were at their very worst:
2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
The first sign - the Earth will spin faster.
The second sign concerns the sun, which will loom larger, brighter and begin to spin.
Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
Beaware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
- will seem to rise from the dead
- will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.
- banking collapse was deliberately masterminded by the Antichrist
- Antichrist will step in and create a false peace in the state of Israel by joining them with palestine in an unlikely alliance.
- „He will recite extracts from My Teachings, which he will passionately proclaim from every secular stage in the world, until people sit up and take notice of him.“

Infinite respect to the Aussie bomb disposal experts that kept me alive in Afghanistan. Out the front of our vehicles in 45 degree heat with full battle rattle scanning our route through a mountain range for 7 hours. 5 IEDs just on the one route on a single day. They don't get paid enough.
So that's what a real hero looks like. :)
@@dean8367 more valuable, there is a lot of doctors out there. Not many of these guys though.
eod is one of the most dangerous jobs to do tbh, hats off to the lads that do it
@Khalil G dealing with explosives is always dangerous, no matter who made them. Most conventional explosive incidents in europe are with very very old pieces of munition (grenades, bombs, mortar shells, rifle grenades, etc etc) and they are still dangerous. If they were not dangerous, people wouldnt send EOD out for it. These guys know what they are doing and they make it relatively safe (relative being the key word). And working with homemade stuff is incredibly common in places like afghanistan. its IED central there.
@@HuskyTheDog2202 ofc they are, i read a book from a guy who had his leg blown off from one
@Khalil G even if its old, it coild explode, like u said, on inpact, most unexploded ww2 bombs were dofferent as they either exploded using a ticker, or impact. when ww2 had the blitz, some ticking bombs dodnt explode, so what they do nowadays is they put this fluid in the ticker to stock any potential ticks, then they dismantle the bomb and difuse it
@Khalil G good good, appreciate too
@Khalil G I do the same job as Chris and, you are not correct. There are no written instructions from a manufacturer on how to deal with their item of ordnance should it fail because there are a multitude of reasons why it may fail. Instructions or Render Safe Procedures as we call them, come from Operators that have gone before and written down what they did. Take a German WW2 bomb for instance (as Chris discusses), that bomb could potentially have three fuses in it, one in the nose, one transverse (on the side) and one in the tail. Whilst Chris rightly points out that a clock could have stopped, many bombs were dropped with time delay fuzes built into them and until you get at the fuze and see the markings, you will not know what it is that you are dealing with and even then, it was not massively uncommon for markings to be deliberately mislabeled. Your comment regarding home made stuff (IED's) is also incorrect. There are literally hundreds of ways in which you could make an IED function and the Operator needs to formulate his own plan based on the information that he gleans at the approach to and observation of the target item. We have one over riding thought. If the target for / of the IED is not obvious then, its you.
Example of someone whos actually figthing for freedom.
And he's not americsn lol
That’s a ridiculous statement. A man fighting for freedom does not work for a oppressive government, and not speak on its problems. This is a man who keeps his mouth shut and takes orders, regardless of right and wrong.
Regardless he’s respectable for doing what he does, but he is not a freedom fighter. Most Brits are not, the Brits do not care about freedoms they care about security by a large majority unlike other nations with more variety of policies and politics. Britain is a left wing ideology state, freedom is not a priority. Forcing peace, safety is, even if that just means hiding evil when it’s still there.
@@YusuphYT i think he means fighting for freedom in the sense that he doesn't need to do this job in places like iraq or Syria for the UK but rather is doing it for himself, and the freedom perhaps is liberating people from the danger and menace that is unexplored ammunitions
True hero

What a legend. No arrogance, just skilled and saving lives. Kudos.
I was EOD in the Army, 12 years. I did a tour in Bosnia, disarming land mines, and two tours in Iraq. I would go back to Bosnia, anytime, before going back to Iraq.
The ordinances used in Iraq were very unstable and unpredictable.
Thanks for sharing your balls of steel with the world, much appreciated

Thank you sir, may God bless you always!!!!!
I was in the serbian military in 94 one of my jobs was setting up and defusing land mines dig around and under carefully put yre hand under and unscrew the detornator job done , some mines once set not worth undoing particularly booby traps
Should call this guy to defuse a room when it’s full of tension.
Brilliant 😂
💀
My Grandad was bomb disposal in WW2, in North Africa fighting against Rommel, luckily made it back from the war but had a lot of stories about things gone wrong. He told my Dad about a time he accidentally sent troops into a "safe" trench to avoid a blast of a bomb he was currently defusing, but the trench was also booby trapped but never gave any more details. War is brutal. Nothing but respect to this hero and all he does.
I wish him a long life.
His soft-spoken voice makes his stories more intense.
I was literally sitting on the edge of my chair when he explained how he defused that IED.
What a hero.
There are certain careers that gain my respect without hesitation.
I worked with this Technician in Syria, he is an excellent EOD Technician and one helluva good man, was an real honor to work with him
What an incredible, selfless man. Huge respect 🇬🇧
He’s probably the most calm human ever
Sooo proud of you Dad 👏🏼🤩❤️
I hope that's really your Dad. If it is, give him a hug for me.

Another fantastic video from LADbible's "Minutes With' series...
This one being an eye-opening interview with a Bomb Disposal Expert.
THIS, is honestly what a hero looks like...
Selfless & matter of fact. No sensationalism, just utilising his hard-earned skill set to save those so much less fortunate & deserving!!
Nothing but #Respect
Ladbible has been nailing it lately. I do wish their videos are longer because I could just listen to their interviewees forever.
These lads don't get paid enough 👏👏👏
Not all hero’s wear capes. I salute you sir 🙏🏻
Looks like he could be a GTA protagonist
It's Lester's British cousin
Mad disrespectful tbh, he's a real life protagonist
@@Vanquish_Visuals are you taking the offense for him? I think being in a main role of a GTA game would be pretty cool. Would obviously mean you are an interesting character. What exactly is offensive? Lot of very cool characters in GTA.
@@Daithi_mk It’s a joke but I do think you’re comment slightly undermines his work. We don’t need to imagine him being in a video game when he’s a real person who does this work
@@Vanquish_Visuals no it doesn't, you're just being way over sensitive. If he's some how offended, he certainly doesn't need you defending him. Talking through your arse to be honest.
You can tell he is an expert as he still has two arms and two legs.
Just buy a defuser, press e and in 5 seconds the bomb is defused!
Op four has defused the bomb
Intriguing! Let's get him back for a full hour!
I wonder what he would say about The Hurt Locker...
He would probably love it. It’s very accurate.
@@aqeelraja4750 It's really not
@@Nyle95 it’s realistic enough. If they made it too realistic, it would be boring. It’s a fine balance between character, drama and realism. I think he would appreciate it, and even relate to the main character
@@aqeelraja4750 I can categorically tell you The Hurt Locker is utterly appalling. It’s virtually a film on how not to do EOD! No EOD person in their right mind would say it is anything other than garbage and nothing like reality. 👎
@@SLAMDOG0125 it received widespread acclaim, the second highest rated film of 2009😂. It’s clear that u don’t like it, but it’s purely opinion, and not factual. The hurt locker is a great film, u just don’t like it
Jesus....the minerals on that bloke....I'm in awe. There's a lot more behind that "No". Thanks again Ladbible.
There has to be something wrong with people like this, and i don't mean it in a bay way.
Contrary to popular display in movies, most western soldiers that get deployed into hostile areas are meant to return fire in case of being under fire, instead of seeking and destroying. Meaning they only shoot when they are shot at, in it's core it's an easy response to follow through - someone means harm to you in a direct way, and assuming you don't get nailed then and there, you defend your self by doing the same.
But in bomb disposal, your enemy is not attacking you, it's not a threat in it's entirety, only by it's design, and it becomes a direct threat upon you approaching and engaging with it. That would be the equivalent of a soldier coming up to a hostile target for an attempt to take him out, but giving him the first shot. It's total insanity and a display of balls in proportions only read about in bibles.
Bomb disposal really began in the UK in WW2. As he said, not all bombs detonated so it was just a case of walking up to it and removing the fuse. The germans realised this and started using the Zeus 40 fuse which was a secondary fuse that detonated when the first was physically removed, so they were bombs directly targeting the disposal team.
I'd rather approach an IED using a systematic approach and all the tools needed to dispose of it rather than have someone surprise me with bullets and a decent shot.
You may never see this message, but on the slight chance that you do sir, from one former soldier to another, commissioned or not I salute you sir for you are one of the true heroes of our craft. At the going down of the sun and in the morning. We will remember them.
This is powerful. He is so genuine, humble, and selfless..... he literally is living his life for other people. At any moment he could loose his life but he continues on with the thought that everyday he’s hopefully saving someone else’s life smh... he’s literally risking his life to make the world around him a better place... god bless you sir. I’m sending all my blessing, faith, and security to you. You are protected by god! You will die of old age one day, not a man made explosive🙌🙏
Audio could`ve been better, but i still appreciate the upload. Thank you !
Of course he's never seen one go wrong. He's that guy. If he "saw" something go wrong he wouldn't be here to talk about it.
That's a man's man right there. Good guy, balls of steel. Hats off to putting your life on the line for the benefit of others.
This guy invented search and destroy
🤣🤣🤣🤣
He just plays it irl
Respect interesting subject, brilliant content! Huge respect and appreciation for this man and his work, brave and completely humble, proud of our country
Like combat medics, EOD’s risk their lives for the sake of saving the innocent. Huge respect for people like this!
I'm guessing he was a royal engineer same as me , we did very basic explosive training but the eod guys are just so far above any training I had an I was a pro, these guys when u are around them u can feel something special , they are true heros that think they are just doing their job and not saving a life.
Best mate was a Medic too, hes a paramedic now, 4 combat tours , got married in Iraq, got that illness people get i forget wat its called and he walked straight out of camp into a minefield totally delirious an an made it out off his tree poorly hes mentally drained after all these years , its the civvy life thats done it too, too many kids die too young😔
Be safe out there and may a higher power watch over you. You got this.
My deepest respect! What a man. The world needs more of them.
Loved this, thank you for the work you do, and all the EOD techs, very humbling, and absolutley humongous balls. 🙂
Thanks for the support 😉
What an absolute HERO. There is nothing else to say.
Bonkers job. My grandad did this post world war 2 in London, he decomissioned ammo dumps and disarmed UXOs in the late 40's/early 50's. Fell into the job as punishment. I love the man dearly but he's a little nuts.
You can squeak by with an A-/3.9 GPA in some professions but you need to be perfect every single time when it's your job to safety explosive devices.
I just buy a defuse kit and hold e for 5 seconds

"how you ever seen a disposal go wrong?"
"no"
Yeah, he has, his eyes told a hell of a story in that split second he said no. Too humble, too grounded and too emotionally scarred to want to talk about it.
What a great guy, truly, a great act of selflessness. Nothing but absolute respect for him. Was a privelage to listen to him speak.
I suspect that it's rare to have more than one EOD technician working on a site at once so he might never have been close enough to actually see an incident. You'd also be subject to hearing a lot of radio chatter which I can only imagine is pretty harrowing when you hear of an explosion in an area that you knew your friends and colleagues were active in. Utmost respect to him and the other selfless souls who do this kind of stuff, the weight they carry is more than anyone should ever have to bear.
He dont want dancing daesh on his collagues grave. Thats why he said no. Cheering muslim is always frightening
@@DjDolHaus86 radio chatter would be very rare my friend, this is due to a thing called RF hazard which is the risk of radio signals setting off an electric detonator. We tend to walk back from the danger zone to the OP if we need to discuss anything or communicate with the EOD team. All communications equipment is turned off during a live operation.
@@markl9841 I don't mean directly from the job site, I just mean you've got a vague idea of who's working where/when and if something goes wrong you'll hear calls for emergency response and be able to put the pieces together in your head.
Thanks for the info though
CAN I HAVE MORE CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS IN UNDER 20 MINUTES ANYONE
are u alive
This is exactly the type of info civilians should be receiving from LADbible
In Northern Ireland a Sgt. Bomb disposal lived within the camp, he died trying to defuse an IRA bomb. Two weeks later his replacement arrived and he died within a few days on another bomb. The saddest thing was that we were still receiving their mail for months after their deaths. Soldiers were dying on a daily basis and the press no longer reported the incidents or stuck it on the back page. I still remember those brave men.
These uploads need to be much longer..!
People talk of heroes, this man is just that. Thanks to him
very good timing with the exeter bomb situation atm, went off about a mile away form me
Although they got the maths wrong and the damage done to the properties near by was not supposed to happen, someone is gonna be getting a bollocking!
@@Rawc90 yeah they did, a family member has a propertly there and is contacting insurance as there is damage
@@Rawc90 It wasn't a case of wrong maths. You are dealing with 1,000lbs of high explosive that is contained in a steel case so, its massively powerful and no matter what you do, if it explodes, it is going to cause a massive shock wave (underground) and just a big a blast wave above ground. We can mitigate by doing what we call "protective works,) ie, dig a deep big trench to stop or reduce the shock wave underground, put it blast walls such as containers filled with earth etc and overhead protection to try and reduce the blast and debris upwards but at the end of the day, if it cannot be defused (made safe) and your only option is to blow in situ, there remains a distinct possibility that there is going to be some structural damage out to some distance.
What a fantastic human being a true example of humanity at its finest selfless to the highest degree offering to others the only thing that's truly priceless and he offers it to those who cannot afford it
a real life super hero. thank you for simply being you ❤️
This guys is proud of himself, you can see it, genuinely proud of living sensible life! Love it!
What a beautiful man. So, grateful that people like him exist.
Chris Fuller has served. He put himself in danger so that civilians didnt have to. And not only his fellow country men, but civilians of another country. I fail to find words that express the magnitude of respect I have for women and men like Mr. Fuller. Thank you for your service, Sir.
This guy has balls of steel. Mad respect.
I believe people in his profession often jokingly refer to it as the least stressful job in the world "it either goes perfectly, or it is suddenly someone else's problem"
Also the motto "initial success or total failure"
It's always fascinating how for people in europe evacuations and news on old ww2 bombs are commonplace and not really newsworthy. Always blows minds for people from other parts of the world
What a lovely guy
Generous of mind, body and spirit. Inspirational.
Pfft this guy thinks his job is stressful.. sometimes I have to take three orders at once. McDonalds is the real war-zone.
(Seriously though, this man is a fucking hero. Humor helps me cope..)
(Yikes.. this was the 666th comment :/)
I signed up for the Navy, back in the 90's... BUT I'd still thank this guy for doing this job so I could choose to be a Boatswain's Mate (basic deck-ape) for 4 years and figure out that the military was a tad too structured to be my best choice for a career. There's no reason to think a draft is impossible, and with those orders you take the job you're given... or the choices are REALLY narrowed down to what they need you for. ;o)
A true hero. Much respect to you Mr Fuller. May God protect you and those like you.
I could listen to these types of stories for weeks

Wow. I couldn't imagine doing that for a job.
Bomb Disposal Expert is the only job someone can have that others can tell how good they are by just looking at them 😁
They had to interview a Bomb Disposal EXPERT because no-one can find an ENTHUSIAST.
I look and read on TH-cam, some of the most despicable individuals imaginable, but here is a man that deserves praise for his courage and humanitarianism sadly lacking in people who should know better. Mr fuller, a good man and most worthy human being.
I used to handle all German landmines all over Europe including Britain, the biggest was the street landmine field the USA said it couldn't be done I finished it in 3.5 years, the latter minefields where in Ardennes forest 3500 landmines airbombs and modified torpedoes per site outa 3 sites all cleared, took a while longer than expected cos of wolves and havin to go to Duren, Germany and ask em for an hand
Reminds me of Corporal Jones of Dads Army 'Don't panic, don't panic!'. RESPECT Sir 🙌💣💂♂️
He's the real deal, a hero. People always say that the soldiers are the heroes, especially in my country. But I think it's the people who help pick up the pieces that are truly worthy of respect.
I`m curious if there is such thing like in the movies, like red wire- blue wire situation. If you cut the wrong one you go boom. Or it`s just hollywood.
Absolute hero, phenomenal work ❤️
However, almost 200 comments and nobody has noticed he looks like the bomb disposal guy in Die Hard 3 🤣
ill save you guys the time if you're confused, what he's saying is when you see the bomb wires, you get a cutter, get your hand steady and eyes focused, and then tell the bomb to not blow up
bomb: so you have chosen death
Imagine choosing a profession where you can't mess up. Not even once. Sure makes me a little more pissed off at all those messed up McDonald's orders over the years.
I'm full of respect for this extremely brave man. Thank you.👏👏
Keep in mind there maybe more then one bomb and target at the same place at once, one a small bomb the other a bigger one and once they know your there the second bomb covers you the intended target you have to be prepared for that....sweep the whole area...know if your under surveillance then do only you know they expect once you know to evacuate then stop the bomber to stop the second bomb..🤯
