The Real Life Body Guards Video

(PAL Format)

Eye Spy's best-selling film gives a chilling 

insight into the world of the professional 

bodyguard - the flesh and blood between 

the world's most powerful people and their 

would-be assassins.

Not to be confused with 'bouncers' or 

'minders', the 'grey man' is a completely

trained - lethal if necessary - professional. 

With an annual 23% rise in political 

violence worldwide and growth in fan 

stalking and kidnap or ransom, a new 

breed of bodyguard has emerged. Not bullet 

catchers - the priority of these men and 

women is to reduce the likelihood of an 

attack by thinking like the terrorist, 

and if necessary, confronting  and 

defeating him at close quarters.

The video features members of the International 

Bodyguard Association, including Eye Spy military 

consultant Jim Shorrt, and documents the rigorous 

training through:

• Escort Protection

• Driving

• Improvised explosive devices

• Electronic counter-surveillance

• Para medicine

• Close quarter combat

It is packed with fascinating demonstrations of the 

professional techniques used to take care of trouble 

whatever the threat, however it is delivered.

The programme also features extensive

archive footage of real-life examples of bodyguard successes and failures. With the benefit of expert analysis, you will witness attacks on Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914, Prince Charles, The Queen, The Pope, Presidents Reagan, Ford and Kennedy, Lee Harvey Oswald, and many others.

Jim Shortt, Director of Training of the International 

Bodyguard Association, reveals the frightening array 

of weaponry that can be concealed on today's 

Bodyguard. He gives the basics - never let your 

guard down - hints - always watch the hand - 

techniques - how to pull a man away 

from a group by his hair, nose or cheek.

Between the Bullet, the bomb and the ballot, 

these are the real bodyguards.
