The thing I admire about Christian is that he's had so many people put him down, he always rises above the haters!

“The Last time I checked the motto of the SAS is WHO DARES WINS”!!! Best quote EVER!! 🙌🏼 THIS is the type of MAN that deserves to be in a Leadership position!! He gets it!! He doesn’t hesitate and knows how to make a decision instead of talking his way out of the situation! MUCH RESPECT!! 🙌🏼 this guy is a Fkn LEGEND and he’s so humble!!

How GB treated this man was a preview to how GB is treating people today. America PROUDLY welcomes this HERO as one of our CITIZENS!!!

I’ve only heard Chris’ story 40 times, but we’re about to make it 41😂

This man, Christian, epitomizes what it is to be a warrior under the motto WHO DARES WINS! I know exactly where I was when the chaos erupted at the hotel. It was loud, chaotic, and the smell of fire was intense. Chris answered a call for help, and his decades of training and instincts kicked in. Chris quite literally ran into the fire with no regard for himself and executed a rescue mission that saved hundreds. We not only owe Chris our lifelong gratitude but also our RESPECT!!! Whatever the behind the scenes were with the military after the fact, I would wonder if anyone in the hierarchy would have had the ball faced courage to step up and do the same. This unassuming British Special Forces Officer displayed for the world to see what it is to do the right thing honorably. THANK YOU, it seems inadequate. THANK YOU, Christian.

Legend is an understatement, Christian Craighead is a god of war

A true man is shaped by failures and keeps pushing through adversity..Thank you Christian for your service

I nearly lost my arm not by being shot, but a work accident after six operations and physiotherapy, I was devastated as I’m a carpenter and a guitarist.. Chris I’ve heard your story many times and you’re absolutely correct that sometimes the worst that happens is a gift! You’re a gift and a true hero. What you did that day was a gift and a curse for many. Thanks again for your service..from a fellow Northumbrian who lives in Denmark ❤️

Last time I fucking checked the motto of the SAS is Who Dares Wins.

The manner in which This man speaks as well as conducts himself with such integrity and thoughtfulness knowing theirs a flame burning inside him but he’s such a statue of humility and class it honestly makes me feel proud just listening to his honesty, he’s the epitome of real courage no grandiose pageantry as he tells his story but rather just real precise professionalism and masculinity

Chris Craighead is a real hero & we’re proud to have him here in America Thx for speaking on your interactions w/Trump & apologies for what’s happening in your homeland, it is atrocious

“Wolves are the ones that do things when they need to be done, without orders, off their own back and with total aggression and commitment…and the sheepdogs will do it if they have to, but won’t do it unless the shepherd tells them to do it.” I love this because no one has ever put it like this, we hear a lot about the sheep/wolf/sheepdog thing but not the added nuance of wolves being able to function independently of expectation or influence while fulfilling the role of the sheepdog.

What a guy 👌two uncles served in SAS/SBS now in late 70s . Story’s are incredible.

Christian is an amazing example of what can be achieved by not allowing a difficult childhood to define his future negatively. He transmuted those terrible experiences into something positive. He was born to be a warrior. Much respect to him. Great interview.

From the same town, and i know there isnt a single person doesn't think this lad is a true gentleman... Grew up as hard as a council house brick... And deserves the best life he has...

Watched many CC interviews, but this one is a huge step above the rest. Great interviewer, really natural flow of questions and answers.

I had a similar experience with bullies, still haven't told anyone all the shit that happened to me, and I also reacted by throwing hands instantly for years after that, but I've never made that connection until now. Just 15 minutes inn and I'm already getting a new perspective on my life, this is going to be a good episode ❤

Chris is the absolute embodiment of gallantry, resilience & dedication. Give this man a knighthood to go with his Conspicuous Gallantry Cross. Legend is an overused term but CC is the real deal.

This man is a national hero and I can listen to his story over and over again…I hope you are well and thriving…

True warrior of God, Mr Craighead is a fearless and selfless hero to many The press are poisonous, why would you light up one of our warriors and put his family at risk etc. He saved lives and reunited 700 families that day, the bloke deserve a bit of privacy?

A hero to real people both US and British. Supported by his peers. Formally recognised by Queen Elizabeth II. Criticised hushed and ignored by UK government and military brass. Embraced by the US. Now living in Texas free of criticism. Great Britain loses another hero.

fair play christian, thank you for your service and honesty

COUNCIL HOUSE TO THE WHITE HOUSE - has to be book title awesome

I was fortunate enough to be in Maryland training with the secret service that November to shake his hand sit in on that debrief, of course after signing the NDA

Christian Craig head is the definition of who dares wins. Ultra respect from a former marine who admires this man’s balls greatly top fella and elite soldier with great ethics

What a man, powerful and true words meant for people like myself, thank you Christian

MY TOTAL RESPECT !!

Para>Pathfinder>SAS>Obe One Nairobi: That's one method to defeat the psychological demons caused by being bullied in childhood.

Nice interview. Nice to meet the man who did that! I heard it kicking off and our guards (KK Security) were posted at Dusit 2 (the location). Nice job Christian.

So very brave an a true inspiration to all. This man is living proof of what is possible in anyone in this comment section or community’s. He words summed up for people struggling to understand the deeper meaning of what he’s saying,. If you want it bad enough you will eventually get it, highs and the lows and even move maintains to get there

This man will be an inspiration to many, just because the cameras were there. But he'd've done it anyway, not because he's extraordinary, but because the moment was extraordinary. His struggle with PTSD is because he would still be ordinary... but for the cameras. Chris, you had the chance to make the world a better place and did so. The Americans have a trite-sounding saying, but I really mean it, and you will know that it's not just for you, but you as representative of those who also serve - but unseen, humble of spirit and caring of heart: "Thank you for your service".

My thoughts on the reason they never want that book to see the light of day is for two reasons, God plays a huge part of the story, and if people realise what a human being is capable of their whole illusion is shattered and their chess board is flipped. Christian makes me proud to be British and to hold Warrior ideals. I know he'll keep being a Warrior of Light and leading others into the fight.

Proper British soldier cold calculated class

So appreciate Craig's approach. He is humble and he is 100% honest. Thanks Mulligan's and thanks Chris, you are a real hero and a real warrior. Respect. '' Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!” from the book of Isaiah 6:8 - God knows !

What a humble hero

It's a mind set , the body can do things that amaze your mind

You just know if he's got your back, he's got your back,a perfect team mate. I've seen a few interviews with him now. I like his honesty, the way he kinda jumbles up what he's saying shows he's just a regular dude who decided to pushed himself to his full capacity and look what he's achieved. He's the epitome of a role model for young men. You can transform the trauma of being bullied into a superpower and this is the ultimate revenge against weak vermin who bully.

honestly, people with anxiety or depression should go ahead and delete all social media from their phones. it's a huge waste of time looking at fake people doing fake things. you don't need it.

What an absolutely wonderul person. His honesy and ability to put away macho bullsh1t is heartwarming. I love his recollection at 19:50s about the trainasium. I have worked at height as a steel errector and used to think that (living in a macho world) that my fear(s) made me weak and unlike the rest. The trouble is most hide their fear and insecurity afraid of being branded an outsider, or incapable, or a square peg in a round hole. But the reality is folks 99% feel and think the same!

We Kenyans thank him. Hope our country can do something for him.

I can not get over this man's story. Legend.

1:58. I needed to hear that message today...thank you!

Most badass man on the planet right here. Unbelievable

I appreciate this guys honesty… one of the last of the Mohicans

I appreciate you Christian; thanks brother

Praise God for your exceptional courage and faith

God indeed blessed you many times that day!!

God bless you Mr. Craighead...you have inspired me...

A true man in every sense. We would all aspire to be men to be able to provide,protect,kill for the people we love.

What a pilgrim articulate Precise honest ,a true quite professional. The best interview. So very proud of you Chris Thankyou for your service. Memories of Geordie Eddy Lillicoe Listening to your Geordie Accent 👍🙏

Have heard Chris on all the military pods (Shawn Ryan’s is great), and still will listen to it again and again. When will he do Jocko, JP and Rogan?! They’d all have a field day with him from their respective angles, he hits every base with his story. My heart also bleeds for him for what he’s vowed never to mention from his childhood … I can only think it’s likely sexual abuse. What a life he’s lived and amazing things he’s done in response.

First off, the film Who Dares Wins was released in the US as The Final Option. I bought it at a gun show in VHS format when it was released in 1982 along with The Wild Geese. Unfortunately the stars have all passed away, including more recently Lewis Collin’s who played SAS Captain Peter Skellen in WDW/TFO. He was a member of the SAS Territorials (Reserves). I was a “young” fireman when it came out in 1982 and I was excited to see a very loosely telling of the Prince’s Gate op. There’s a newer version which is much closer to the real tale called Six Days. Another factoid: American Army Colonel Charles Beckwith trained with the SAS for a couple of years then came back to the States and formed up our Delta Force as a respectful imitation of the British Unit (as our force has also been nicknamed). I have a first edition copy of his book Delta Force that I also picked in that time frame at a gun show. Well done, Christian Craighead, (or whatever your name is), admirable action in a high pressure time of need. Congrats on your past successes and good fortune in the future. Welcome to Texas, USA, brother. Maybe I’ll see you here in Flint, near Tyler.

Cometh the hour, cometh the man

He followed his dharma, no matter how difficult the path. 'Who dares wins' indeed.

What a guy. I start training struggling students in September in a military style behaviour management program that have ambitions to join the forces. I would love motivational stories like this told to them.👊🏿🙏👌

Amazing story, incredible and inspiring - thank you for making this video,. I can only only say thank you to Chris and to you for making the video, God Bless.

Thank you for your service 👍🇬🇧

I hope those that bullied him as a kid have seen this, I hope they’re fully aware of who he is!

Says it all that nobody from the Britishgovernment met him to shake his hand yet trump who was president at the time went out of his way to shake his hand and thank him. The word hero is thrown around like confetti these days but watching Christian that day makes the hairs on the bk of my neck stand on end.talk about one man army!

Badass mutha SAS best in the world

I'm 100% sure Lieutenant Colonel Sir David Stirling,Lieutenant Jock Lewis & Colonel Paddy Mayne are in Valhalla saying you did well Lad,you fuxxing did well ;0]

Craig’s childhood was horrific, worse than advanced military training, instead of care there was abuse fortunately Craig managed to do something good with his life it doesn’t always happen for people after a life like this ✌️❤️🇬🇧

This guy is phenomenal a hero and an inspiration.

Outstanding achievement you two! Amazing! Great job!

What a riveting listen, start to finish. This man is a Template for being a good human being. Also, as a believer in High Strangeness and the Paranormal, the story he told about meeting the well dressed man the day of the attack tells me he met a white hat entity or messenger/receiver who then relayed his safe blessings from the Source Creator who had placed him at that time and place. His whole life was training for that moment.

Lord said "Here i am send me"

fuck, i need to read his book asap!!...

My God, the intro bit reminds me of the Jeremy Bulger case

Bullying is fucking awful, but it’s also a good life lesson. A lot of people come outside the other side as protectors. Some don’t survive. Growing up and being able to protect others with that perspective is becoming a warrior. Stand by mother f****

Basically an angel. The best of us. Shame on u govt.,

Amazing interview 😮

You cannot be teach this mindset. It’s in you or it’s not. I served in the British army, I knew I would never be good enough to put in for selection. I was quite good at E+ E. But I knew I never had the mind set to go to this level.

i went through pirbright as teenager at the same time as "Christian" and can attest junior leaders of Para Reg was a breeding ground of British warriors.

Would love to set and have a beer with this legend. Thank you

FOLLOW YOUR GUT. DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO.

I heard about the guy he picked up in the business suit a while ago. I still think about that now, angels and demons.

Can't wait for the book Release 😊

Hats off to this fella, goes beyond balls of steel this, but to the very few, what is right matters and they will see the job out no matter what the cost..

This is gonna be AMAZING. U just made my day. Thanks MUL FAMILY 🙏

Jason would make sas selection as long he has a supply of huel

This is by far one of the most influential interviews I've seen

He seems more relaxed in this one than on Shaun Ryan.

Unbelievable story, Unbelievable human...legend isn't enough when describing Chris!

Absolutely brilliant podcast 👏🏼 🇬🇧

Legend mate

Thanks for your service Chris 👌

Amazing man

Watched all Christian's podcasts so far, really looking forward to this one. Peace

I remember seeing the footage on RU-vid and thinking wow what a guy doing this but now knowing you from my part of the world and being from the northeast mates me even prouder knowing the North produces some truly heroic guys, I tip my hat to you for what you'd done 👌

I served with Geordie in A Company, 2 PARA, and he is a really good lad.

God bless you Sir and thank you

Tough chap .

How can you not love this guy mad respect 👏

Bought a cap and the postage is painful,but not as painful as what he's done,so was glad to pay it to support his business..

Great channel Shame about the sponsors plug always thrown in, ruins every podcast across the board

Fantastic interview with an amazing man. Respect man. 😉

Was this ever made into a movie?

Well done 👏

didn't Chris Craighead's SAS colleagues become jealous of his achievements during the hotel rescue and the subsequent tributes and commendations he received? i could've sworn there was an article which explained some kind of minor subterfuge within the hierarchies to dismiss his feat on that fateful day.
