The Sixteen by John Urwin

The author has his own website which gives further background of the group and of his personal life. Their unique method of unarmed combat, river/ravine crossings and training methods including the 'One Step Beyond' fear elimination process are also given a further write up.
Many have questioned the validity of this book and even the author says that the very covert nature of the group meant that no documentation exists that would prove their existance. However, he has been interviewed in newspapers and on TV and Radio and has launched his own website so why would anyone put themselves up for such intense scrutiny if they did not have the skills to back it up? Would you? He has started to hold courses and seminars where he explains and demonstates some of the techniques covered in the book that made this group unique. He holds much of the system back as this he hopes to one day pass on to another similar group. The website is www.johnurwin.co.uk
