It stands for "Sweat Isn't Real"
What a bizarre claim to make, that he can't sweat was it? Obviously not true, he was in the military I think, even as a helicopter pilot he wouldn't be able to serve if he couldn't sweat. You wouldn't be able to live without sweating first time you get some exercize you would get brain damage, or first trip to the subtropics, from the heat. Your balls would get fried too.
Guy obviously can sweat if he couldn't he would be like a bubble boy.
The really incredible thing is that he thought everyone was dumb enough to fall for all the bullshit in that interview. "I have a tendency to be too honourable." FFS.
The helicopter pilot was his nephew, Harry. I believe Andrew served in the Navy during the Falklands war.
Ah thanks I always avoided learning anything about the royal family but someone recently said he was also a helicopter pilot in the falklands, I remember Harry in afghanistan because of those comments he made that got leaked using a slur and whatever else.
Any which way, you can't serve in the armed forces in about any capacity if you can't sweat. They won't event take flat feet.
It's just such an outlandish lie, like that is the best he could come up with? And it doesn't absolve him either if I recall.
The interview where he made those claims backfired so spectacularly for him, it's worth a watch. I think I'm going to watch it again tonight.
