Could you do SAS:Who Dares Wins?

[Ohreally01]

I just watched the last two episodes of the reality version and there is no way I could do any of it!

I wouldn’t be fit enough for the running and lifting, I definitely couldn’t do backwards falling into freezing cold water from a height in the dark or the underwater helicopter escape while holding your breath without panicking.

I would do a John Barrowman if I was on it - I think he lasted 32 minutes!

Not a chance in hell.
I do however have a small anecdote about the SAS....
I was in the army reserve for 30 years but worked in clerical duties. I only had to.pass my weapon handling test once a year. Once after cleaning the weapon with a group of men that I did not know I was very slowly putting the rifle back together thinking to.myself 'now where does this bit go'
I didn't make any mistakes and noone said a word.
It was only after I had finished and they gave me a round of applause that I found out they were SAS and could probably do it blindfolded behind their backs :)

No!

I find it amazing how well some of the celebs do.

Yes I meant the celebrity version.

@ceecee32 It’s still more than a lot of us can do!

No! I am not at all fit, terrified of heights and really don't like being shouted at! Apart from that I would be fine!!!!!

i’d be afraid of laughing when they get all shouty.

Currently watching as I type ! It's awful no way I could do it

Yes, I’d smash it. Super fit, in a services job and like to think I’d give most 25 year olds a run for their money. Although admittedly I don’t really like heights.

no
I would burst into an ugly cry with all the shouting and my squeaky joints would make squats and lifting difficult. plus I can't do push ups.

I think I could do the bits with heights and the psychological tests.

I absolutely could not do anything to do with water, or walking long distances with packs, push-ups etc.

Plus, I cannot imagine Foxy and co happily standing there while I sit down regularly, drink tea and pee!

I would 100% die.

Omg nightmare! Watching at moment. Bobby Norris is very funny. Water jump is scary too.

I can’t swim so I wonder what they’d do about that?! Probably tell me to bugger off and get someone else

Poor Bobby. I wonder if he will get to the end!

I just couldn't be arsed.

Before I did my knees in? (At the grand age of 25, doing stupid things similar to that?) Maybe.

Now .. no way.

Who was the young woman who just curled up on the ground in the foetal position screaming before the submerged car challenge? I'd be like that for absolutely everything. I couldn't cope with even having the bag put over my head

My late husband was in the SAS. He was a lot older than me. He trained all the men who went into the Embassy in 1980. He retired two weeks before the siege.
I was deeply honoured to be given a free ticket to an SAS day at the Army Museum about fifteen years ago. I was lucky enough to meet two men who had worked with DH. The now late Pete Scholey was absolutely hilarious regaling everyone with the story of being parachuted into Borneo and getting stuck in a tree.. An orangutan started making sexual overturea from a neighbouring tree and he was frantically trying to get out of his harness. 😂 😂 😂
I also met Rusty Firman who went into the embassy.
I bought both their books and they wrote lovely messages in their to my Wilf about his Dadda. ♥️ ♥️ ♥️

Mentally I think I could.
Physically I would be absolutely fucked.

Anyone else fancy foxy?

Ew.

i’m a non-swimmer who has issues with authority, so the bookers would pass me by quickly.
