On today's Zero Limits Podcast I chat with Robin Horsfall former 22 SAS British Army operator.Robin Horsfall joined the Army at the age of 15. He became a full member of the Parachute Regiment in 1974 and served three tours of Northern Ireland. In 1978 he volunteered for SAS selection and passed on his second attempt in March 1979. He went on to qualify as a Paramedic and Sniper.He was a member of the SAS counter terrorist team that assaulted the Iranian Embassy in London in 1980, helping to rescue the nineteen hostages who had been held for six days. Robin Horsfall was just 23 when he shot and killed one of the leading terrorists inside the Iranian Embassy in London. May 1, 1980 – when six gunmen occupied the embassy in Kensington and threatened to blow up the building and the 20 hostages held inside by noon unless their demands were met.It was one of the most famous counter-terrorism operations in British history and after a tense siege lasting six days the crisis was resolved when the building was stormed by the Special Air Service (SAS) in front of the world's media.Robin has had an extraordinary life and has been speaking about it at events both small and large for over 10 years.Send us a text however note we cannot reply through these means.
