Royal Marines Unarmed Combat Display

22/04/2010 Royal Marines Display team demonstrating Unarmed Combat at a Meet the Marines Event.

[@-Thunder-Warrior-]

Mate of mine from down the pub was a Major in the Royal Marines, he's in his 70's now but the other month a couple of blokes tried to mug him late at night while he was walking the dog... Needless to say they didn't get very far. "I introduced one chap to the cobbles and his companion had second thoughts." Were his exact words afterwards... Legend!

[@basgek]

Royal Marines Commandos are BEAST! Respect from Holland!!

[@jackquinn96]

marines are elite versions of soldiers who specialize in multiple scenarios whether thats entering by sea, by air or land. so personally i think everywhere is the perfect place for a marine.

[@skaterkid901]

I'm training to join the Marines (Reserves) this time next year. This video has now fully taught me not to piss off any of the other boys in uniform!

[@redgun1001]

Love how they play Pulse of the Maggots at the beginning

[@SebCharnock]

Want evidence of the Royal Marine's elite standards? Look at their training. It's 32 weeks long (I believe). That weedles out the unfit, the needy or basically, the undesirables. The Royal Marines (and the Parachute regiment) form what is known as the SFSG. The Special Forces Support Group. So they train and support the SAS (you know, the best Special Force in the world). Also, the majority of Special Force selection comes from either Para regiment of Royal Marines..

[@Titanlord10000]

Proves how solid a royal marine is, cant wait to be one

[@SillyEddyPhotography]

I've been treking through that weird part of KZbin... But thankfully I ended up back in the awesome section.

[@BbLlAaCcKkRrIiVvEeRr]

it doesn't matter how hard you think you are or who you are, don't mess with a royal marine!

[@thomasthepom2]

Not quite airborne insertions via parachute is now the exclusive domain of the RAF Regiment! The Paras now fast rope from choppers, as it is a more direct and less dangerous form of entry to the LZ. The only other dedicated parachute force is the SAS's Airborne Troop, but which is typically a small number of operators.

[@leonarddopson7156]

so happy i can hear my favourite band slipknot

[@Dave16101991]

Im English, im Christian & proud of it. Long live our Queen and luck forever be with our troops.

[@Akco007]

Quite in Comments! That was some impressive shit. A little basic training in self defence can help everyone especially those vulnerable or those who live in rough areas.

[@andrewreilly8791]

I sleep a little easier at night knowing these guys are protecting my country.

[@arinsfather4719]

How does one fight unarmed? These people all have arms, so the title is a lie.

[@arinsfather4719]

***** So, true.

[@partyrocker1159]

Arins Father They're trained in all kinds of situations, in case they don't have a weapon for some reason, this is what they are trained for.

[@arinsfather4719]

partyrocker1159 They have arms, so I don't believe them.

[@partyrocker1159]

Arins Father Like I said, trained for any situation, these tactics could be useful.

[@arinsfather4719]

partyrocker1159 This is a unarmed display, I don't see any unarmed displaying.

[@ReverendRover]

Its a demonstration of some ways they might fight, but obviously they don't want four marines ripping each other to bits to show it, so they are trained to do it safely

[@JackGamer193]

No it would and does work, it's a martial arts move that I picked up from Shotokan Karate, it's all about the placement of your hand, you get a hold on their thumb and twist away and they can't help but lose grip then all you have to do is twist their wrist into a rather uncomfortable position. Besides it depends entirely upon the person you're against.

[@DrunkenHoboAdverts]

i love how they use the Black Hawk Down soundtrack;)

[@airsofFTW1]

they go in first in the hard hitting parts mainly amphibious assault and you still get commando detachment like groups

[@fightstar4eva]

If you look closely, you can see the "Para Wings" on their right shoulders. You can only wear that badge if you're parachute trained.

[@dannyrose1526]

Great showmanship

[@MyUsername283]

I cannot wait to start my training

[@DrunkenHoboAdverts]

no, the RM's are specialised in the ability to be Amphibious, however, they can get their Para wings... source (three years as a Royal Marine Cadet)

[@ph1lo]

this is class. do the marines actually do a lot of this training?

[@Dave16101991]

You take internet warrior to the next level lol

[@Scotty_K]

His back right foot was perfectly suited for a sweep so if it was indeed that way it wouldn't have been to hard to floor someone after they grabbed you.

[@ozzyduzenli]

JIMI HENDRIX IN THE BACKGROUND "VOODOO CHILE" MARINES ARE ELITE AND ALSO HAVE GOOD SONG TASTE =D I'LL BE THERE SOON!

[@David86DK]

what music they are listening ???? the name Please

[@HeavyGundam7]

I think i went to that place with the sappers and did a raft race while i was on my officer selection? The far bank and size of the lake looks identical?

[@RealityRawTV]

I agree but clearly if you look closely in this vid you'l see that they have some sort of protective thing where they get struck with the baseball bat.

[@patrickisdale8311]

that is brutal.....ly epic!

[@agitonii]

I still wonder how do they decide who takes the blow to the stomach when they do the disarm and bat to the abdomen part...

[@dazatully7677]

uk RM commandos are special forces as they are trained as elite troops able to fight as a small group or on there own behind enemy lines hence the term commando

[@onemangamer587]

Harry Waddington the SBS used to be part of the Royal Marines to later be part of the UKSF.

[@EvilDeathNightmare]

True that, but this is entirely choreographed. There's no denying that

[@joefraser9769]

What country do you live in ?

[@davz1992]

really funny, nice education, do they say the part about getting killed or limbs blown off?

[@IAnArCHyxX]

No but there are royal marines reserves aswell as regular royal marines commandos..

[@Boro1Legend]

whats so different between a soldier and marine

[@Redcoat66]

It's a proven fact, Royal Marines, love Hendrix!!!!

[@SuperEpeen]

Hardly a fanboy. I live near Taunton near to where their base is and I had 3 Rm come to a class I take for a period before they were deployed to Afghanistan. Nicest blokes you could meet and their story was bit different to the one you tell. I assume you are either an ex RM, know one or have served with?

[@Slip666Knot100]

Yeah, Pulse of the Maggots playing when they start to fight.

[@killerclown789]

@nightcry96 Royal Marines are commandos, US Marines are basic rifle men. Royal Marines would kick their ass.

[@killerclown789]

@TRIPPYbugger Royal Marines are pretty much the same thing as the Recon Marines, who are also commandos. There are people out there that think Royal Marines are the same thing as the basic USMC rifle man.

[@whitefang2013]

Soldiers don't live in a state of perpetual childhood. Some are childish, most live in a perpetual state of Service!

[@bboymyers3853]

OMFG THEY PLAYED JIMI HENDRIX MADD RESPECT!!!!!!!

[@MrGoldbars]

loved that well done lads

[@SoLalbUs]

@LordWellington15 Actually it does come from some one who did 3 years of service in combat units and brushed shoulder to shoulder with some of the guys who served in those forces. The things I said here are coming from actual knowledge and not just empty talking.

[@alanfagan100]

Few pints was it last night son? I was in the Paras for 15 years.

[@EllisFitz1995]

When I'm 18 I'm joining the royal marines, can't fucking wait :)

[@PhillyBuckley2]

Don't mess with our Marines!

[@MrSmile1011]

Well, now i know what i wanna do when im older

[@aethefox7]

woah i think the corporal speaking was my section corporal in training

[@TankDempsey101]

I'm joining 45 commandos Royal Marines not just because of that to protect my country

[@iJoker39]

Why are you saying Semper Fi when they are Royal Marines, aka British Soldiers..

[@David86DK]

in 1 minutes music name - old rock ??? the Name ????

[@ben2061james]

And the last time Paras actually jumped for a full airborne assault was WW2.

[@longforder]

haha the guy who won king of the mat is Cpl woods our Troop PTI

[@phantom12321800]

Why do they keep kicking each other after?

[@069hughes690]

Scarily motivating

[@awesomerckr3]

im guessin these lads have already earned their berets

[@TraceurNath]

Obviously had something protecting their mid sections but was pretty cool :)

[@Bobfp3]

Do the Seals or US marines do this?

[@Gameboyycolor1]

I've never seen us marines do it so probably not in public places

[@andrewrocha6605]

Bob walker marines bro their just british

[@GrugSmesh]

Where was this?

[@jameshughes22]

well actually in a street fight your less likely to encounter to fight someone who is faster than a royal marine

[@Cathaydude]

luv this video

[@GillsFan91]

0:56 and onwards do I hear Slipknot - Pulse of the Maggots?

[@Boro1Legend]

YES THEY are

[@SuperEpeen]

They do train for commando style operations but due to the nature of the current engagements that they are fighting it its not possible to use that type of tactic so yes they are out there on the front line fighting like regular marines. In a larger conflict they would use these commando skills but its not appropriate in Afghanistan. It appears that you are american how do you come to the opnion that they are not commando's and how do you know how and what they are trained in?

[@TheBritishPillar]

Well considering the Regular Army is trained just as well as the U.S Marine corps, I'd bet on the Royal Marine.

[@Amdis100]

Couldn't agree more.

[@MrH1tler]

had 1 too many did we?

[@LordWellington15]

@armatulo I'm sure this is coming from someone who has even tried to sign up for any of those forces you listed.

[@TheCookieMonster5858]

@CoffeeFiend1 i completely agree with everything u jusy said except i know that the SAS selection can take up to a year and is longer than the marines, but i dont know which is the longest in the world... it could be the SAS but i dont know for sure.

[@navyteccs]

"the rear Japanese strangle!" wrong wrong wrong

[@turtleinahat]

basic moves are the usually the most effective!

[@ghostgoul007]

I bet they have balls of steel

[@mohawkmohican]

@ZombieModzTV ok then id like to see you try to take a marine on in unarmed combat

[@acfjames]

what do you mean at your disposal

[@cadetgary]

This style of H2H combat is quite similar to Systema Spetsnaz

[@Hughesy-97]

looks like some really vicious form of judo!!!

[@oOShutts97]

I think ill go get myself a cuppa

[@Pilotcoyle107]

lets see a Royal Marine take on a U.S Marine!!!!!!!

[@j69d]

Love it!

[@LordWellington15]

@CoffeeFiend1 They can only be from Commonwealth countries.

[@JimmyDontSmoke]

Take That! I got the formula and i'll rain on all of ya!

[@CoffeeFiend1]

Royal marines have the longest selection process in the world. They also have the lowest pass rate of any regular soldiers in the world. This speaks volumes in the silly "who is better arguments". Never the less,the important thing to remember is: It doesnt matter if the marine is American, French, German, Dutch, Canadian, Greek, Spanish or British they are all tougher and more disciplined than 99.99% of youtubes keyboard warriors. Respect to all soldiers past and present.

[@thomasthepom2]

The Gurkha version is ever better! They just take out their Kukri and start dismembering the bad guys!

[@robertlangowski1761]

They play Jimi Hendrix that makes it cooler!

[@SR71ABCD]

A liitle guy stands in and Kicks one in the crouch and makes a run for it lol

[@rayc146]

you seem to know all about it ducky

[@FilthyMrTibbles]

Love our british Marines!

[@MrMezmerrill]

amazing

[@Gameboyycolor1]

+Kkl Kkl why does every fucking person on KZbin say "you're brainwashed" bitch you're fucking crazy don't be replying to me with some stupid paragraph about the government or some shit. Stupid ass nigga you're fucking crazy that's what you are .

[@Hbusters53]

I find it funny cos in afghanistan u'd pee yourself when u saw the glint of an AK47

[@-Thunder-Warrior-]

Yes indeed, made me smile! :D

[@alexheaver2913]

the first song isnt it under siege

[@Sam171196]

i don't understand your message...

[@UP606754]

Wipe your tears.

[@TRIPPYbugger]

@killerclown789 there are about 7'000 royal marines and over 200'000 US marines. although the royal marines training is longer (32 weeks as appose to the USMC's measly 13 weeks), the USMC also has elite units like marine force recon which will be just as capable as the commandos. these constant comparisons are childish; they are allies and share a bond of freindship

[@mskiUSMC]

This is like watching benny hill..... Good shit....

[@philgreen6084]

Soft demo comedy. Love it.
