This guy has got such a calming presence about him, it’s no wonder that he’s a good hostage negotiator. Thanks for all the awesome insights! Hope they bring you back again soon, perhaps to review other types of negotiations scenes in movies through the eyes of a hostage negotiator?

[@slimeruthlessroyals1026]

That last bit of info is golden: First seek to understand others Then formulate your position so that they might understand you. Imagine if people in politics took this advice!

[@lentawuzgood]

Right it’s so smart !

[@chasehedges6775]

The Negotiator(1998) with Samuel L. Jackson and Kevin Spacey is a really good hostage-negotiator movie. Absolute classic film

[@b1646717]

Yeah it was. Loved when he pulled the cameras right out of the walls and floor.

[@uosdwiSrdewoH]

I was about so say, they didn't do THE Negotiator. The whole movie is named after the practice. Maybe that's why. Too much to go through since they do talk negotiating tactics for like half the runtime. Now I have to go and watch it. Haven't seen it in forever.

[@Kim-vg7pe]

Love that movie

[@darylmorning]

I was hoping it was on the list... Bummer

[@BipoIarbear]

I really liked the movie , but there is something about it that I couldn't put my finger on that stopped it being a classic like these other movies , I'm not counting metro btw🤣 although it was a lot of fun

[@Ganiscol]

If I ever get in a hostage situation - whichever way - I'd ask for Mr. Nadeau to come sort it out. He is really pleasant to listen to as well - I guess that can be helpful too 😅

[@thejenmath]

I miss Mindhunter so much!

[@kaybeeloved3]

seek first to understand, and then to be understood. One of the 7 habits of highly effective people. Nice job!

[@jamesonstalanthasyu]

He loves Keanu so much, like most people, that he says it's not ideal, but I can see where we shoot the hostage. 😀

[@IXScasualty]

I think Hollywood forget there’s a difference between hostage negotiation and hostage rescue.

[@PerpetualBass]

Jfc thank you for starting this off with the introduction instead of a preview of what we'll see 10 minutes later

[@jordanweber5351]

The show Flashpoint has what I think are some great negotiating scenes and philosophies around calming the subject down and connecting with them. My all time favorite show

[@pop130]

This guy was the best!! Bring him back for more!!

[@JezzieBell666]

I was upset about Bob’s Burgers not being in this but I guess dog day afternoon sort of counts 😂

[@maddierader2231]

Love this video! wish it had more views. so so cool

[@templetonpeck393]

What about the film "The Negotiator"?

[@sahastranshumalviya2627]

Samuel L. Jackson, Negotiator? 1997

[@joeschmoe2697]

Great episode, but you guys absolutely missed a golden opportunity to have him watch scenes of flashpoint. Best hostage negotiation show of all time.

[@Bannanapeppers]

Does the person get to eat the chicken?😂😂

[@vinnieg6161]

I don't think shooting someone in the upper thigh is a safe option.. You'd bleed out real fast if a major vein is hit

[@New_Jax_City]

So you literally dont review the 1 MOVIE that has NEGOTIATOR in the title! THE NEGOTIATOR with kevin spacey and sam jackson!!! Hello!!!!

[@kai_winchester_66]

I like this guy he sounds very intelligent 👍

[@ronaldlee7566]

Desperate Measures, The Negotiator, Mad City, Money Monster and etc.???

[@mrthisbetterstick7776]

Flashpoint series not included here....what the show THAT perfect in their hostage negotiations??

[@uosdwiSrdewoH]

Why Speed of all things? He's not a negotiator, he's there for tactical support and to clear the building, not try to negotiate. That was a waste of time.

[@Gedagnors]

Stop showing professionals your hollywoke garbage. It is beyond annoying. You don't need specialist to understand that cringe is cringe.

[@463759]

Put I violence warning on these things if your going to show people getting shot in the head point blank. Eck.

[@angelotrinidad6888]

It’s funny when The Negotiator, literally in its title & is one of the best in the genre ain’t here. 😂🥲
