Late 80s with a [__] nightclub bouncer, come with me. You don't have three guys on you when you're all alone, you have to fight back. If you manage your door well, the evening will be a success. But why are you taking me for a fool? It's a shame to have the party. You can tell that people are a little more drunk. When you say things, if you're a man, you follow through. So, to give you a bit of context, it's 2 AM. This is just the beginning. Oh! Paul, are you alright? Where's Nathan coming from? Is everything alright? So tonight we're with Paul and Nathan, so what's the real term then, the real term of I think he's a security guard.
Security guard, or rather, nightclub bouncer? I think that's over. Before, there was a doorman, maybe a nightclub bouncer. Perhaps I'm missing some information, but I think that's it, currently we're going to stick with the term security guard. Great. So the goal of the video is to spend the evening with you and a little bit of the night too. We're going to start in a bar, we're in Hossegor. We don't say Hossegor, be careful if you see the video. Hossegor. The bar is therefore called The Tiger Club. OK, it's a big bar, right? It's certainly one of the biggest in Hossegor. And tonight you told me it's party time. We're at La Biche, we're here to work, and all the more so because I'm married. So there's no ambiguity then. So,
until what time are we in the bar, approximately? So basically the evacuation is from 10pm to 2am, but now we're going to do it until 1:30am. And afterwards we'll go to a club, right? Absolutely, at Pitch. Okay then, I'm with you, let's go, here we go So now we're simply going to change. Because I dressed entirely in black, is that it? Yeah, yeah, no, no, it's perfect. Because, like I said, it's a world I don't really understand, it's all nightclubs and stuff.
It's more basic, that's it, it's really as black as possible. Of course. Are you happy to be a security guard? For me, it's been 2 years. Which one do you have? You said 23. Do you have 23?! Are you 23? You're eating this, little one, uh, soup. There? Does it contain creatine? So at Tiger at the start there was no security, then there was only one guy but it was a bit complicated. It was always necessary to adapt a little. Then they understood the importance of security, of having people. As much to deter as you see, so that people exactly. Without security and all that, it's definitely more pleasant. How many people are there tonight I don't know, we can have 300 people. Okay, let's go.
What's behind the door? That's where the bar is. Where can we go to see it? Of course, of course, with great pleasure. This is where we pick up our gear, right? I'm getting my radio back here, it'll make it easier to communicate with the team because, you know, there's an upstairs, there's a garden and we're at the entrance. So if there's ever a problem, or anything like that So, you've got the walkie-talkie back, right? Exactly. So, I'm going to install it and then we'll go and show up at the door. Okay, perfect. Anyway, you'll see, yeah, I move around a lot. There, there's my brother PG who's going to stay with me at the door because it's the door, it's
really the most important thing. Whether it's in a bar or a nightclub. It all starts there. It all starts at the door, all of it. If you manage your door well, the evening will be a success. If you don't manage it, it can get a little more complicated. Little John, little John, pleased to meet you, pleased to meet you. That's what we call it in social security jargon, but it's the old-fashioned kind. He has nothing to prove. This is the absolute pillar of the Tailor's work. Well, he's the one who let us all in, right? So. There, we do the micro tests and everything, if all goes well. Microphone test, perfect. Everyone talks to everyone, right? Quite. Because, in fact, before there was only one security guard and it was too complicated. You had to be
at the door to screen people, to go and see if there was a problem and all that, that's it. And in fact, that's what I like about this job, the more we move forward, the more groups modernize their staff a bit because they have understood that now, security is not just security guards at the entrance who do 'That's it there,' to put up stops. Yeah, exactly. Actually, for me, it's a plus in sales. Basically, well, we're the first and last image of the customers. So it already helps to create a social link and all that. That's why we try to be smiling, kind, all that.
Sure, yeah. But at the same time, you see, when there's a war, you can pick up the glass. In fact, we are a hybrid. That's really the goal. We try to help our colleagues as much as possible. OK, I understand. And then, and then, there you have it. And uh, the last time I went into a bar, I remember, it was 15 years ago, it was the very beginning of social media. People were starting to recognize me. I was dancing with a girl in the bar. Everyone recognized me and formed a circle around me. He took out his phone and filmed me. Hell. The time I walked into a bar. So, since that day, well now, in the meantime, we got married and so on, but it's true that, well, that was the time, huh.
There? I'm getting all my abs thanks to your [__] shitty videos, huh. But keep going like that. Bravo, that's kind, thank you very much. I'm sculpting my body thanks to you. Well, that's an honor. [laughs] Dude, it's really an honor. Thank you, well done, well done, man. I hope you don't drink alcohol. No, it's water. Wait, wait, wait, still, still. Awesome. Well, have a very good evening anyway. In fact, as we were discussing before, but well, it may displease some, but we actually try to be bouncers, very smiley security guards
and all that. Because you don't want to get into a fight with smiling security guards. Sure, yeah, yeah. Even in the event that there is a case where it's a bit of a squeeze or unfortunately you have to be a bit more physical, yeah. Then, if we do it with respect and kindness, we can say that most of the time it works. In fact, what you shouldn't do is humiliate people. There you see, there are a lot of people, even if the guy did something stupid, if you take him aside discreetly, that's it So it's not always possible, but let's say we try our best. So, I'll let you show me around a little bit then. Like I said, it's been years since I've been to a bar. But you see, actually, there are
still people eating here, that the Tiger is also a restaurant. Whoops, sorry, excuse me. So here you have the main bar, that's the heart of the matter. Wow, it's huge, yeah. Yeah, that's all part of the catering. So this is the dance floor. Those are the cooks, those are our friends. Hey guys, what's up? Do you want something? So now we're going to go to the outside part. You'll see, it hides very well. So there's a restaurant and garden area here. Ah, is that it? When do you have to move people out? Is it blood alcohol level?
It can vary enormously. It could be alcohol, it could be disrespect, it could be the guy vomiting, it could obviously be drugs. He is? And in fact, he's a guy. Basically, he's not welcome here, so the idea would be to explain to him that, well, he's not welcome in our establishment. OK, no problem. But you see, we always go in pairs because, well, it doesn't matter, there might be friends, outside elements and all that. We'll approach this with a lot of diplomacy, we'll explain it to him and then we'll see what happens.
OK, well I'll follow you a little behind then. Because you're finally showing me. Oops, sorry, excuse me. I beg your pardon. THANKS. There's the second table, there's the first one sitting with the cap. OK, the one that's in my.? Yeah. OK. So that's the one with the guy he's talking to there. OK, OK. Okay, go ahead then. Excuse me, wolves, I'm telling you? Can I talk to you for two seconds, please? You can come with us calmly, if you please.
Well, listen, I'm not aware of what's going to happen with all this. You need to go to the establishment. So I wanted to tell you, " Go ahead, go ahead, come with me, there's no problem." And the establishment reserves the right to have or not have customers in its premises. Otherwise, what's the point of having it? So, if we go back I agree with that, but on the fact that there is no if nothing happened actually. I can understand if you tell me it's because there were no facts. It's in relation to, but maybe before or like that. Anyway, there's no point in me fighting. Of course. So you finish your drink and leave. So.
We invite you to finish it on the terrace over there And then, there you go It's already very kind of us to let you do it You can have your drink. No, but go ahead. OK. No, but go ahead. It's done. I'll take care of it. There you go, you grab your glass and follow me quietly and we'll go. I really don't want you to feel humiliated or anything. So. Okay, thank you very much. Okay, excuse me for, excuse me for, well, my colleague, he pressed a little. Well, I am for myself, I am fine.
No, but of course. No, well, but there you have it, it happened, it just happened, well, that 's one thing. That's it, that's my boyfriend, it's serious. It doesn't matter, you see. Okay, so uh no, well, that's it, that's how it is . That's what's needed, it's going well and smoothly. Okay, thank you very much. Bye. The uh, he hadn't done anything wrong, it's just that there was a history. Exactly. But to anticipate once again, he was a little unhappy because he didn't understand because, as you know, there had been no direct action. He told me there, I didn't do anything and all that. Technically, this is someone who had already caused
incidents in the past. So, unfortunately, we have to go in that direction and that's where we were going to stop for tonight What you absolutely must avoid is humiliation in front of friends and those around you, yeah. And on top of that , he's with his friends. When you take a guy out alone, well, you can make other arrangements, but here, there are people around. So, these are still potentially threats, in quotes, you see. If you humiliate him, his friends might want to get involved . So, it makes the tension rise and you can't get out of it When you do your job, what do you? What are you looking at right now You sweep around a bit, you cover a wide area. Me, uh, people who don't work in security, when they
look at me, they think I'm a bit crazy. Afterwards, your eyes are constantly moving. All the time, all the time, it's all in my head. In fact, the goal of our job is to anticipate things as much as possible. So, you try to observe the behavior of each other, to see if there is a time when he, when he is drunk, is going to be a little more annoying than the others. You see, he has behaviors that don't fool you at a certain point. And likewise, at the entrance of the bar, the nightclub, knowing if when he comes in, he's going to cause a problem, all that. Frankly, that comes with age, obviously, but you can feel it too. And that's why I was saying that to be a good uh security guard, a good doorman, well, you
also have to be a little, I think, basically, either sensitive or a little kind, you know, to feel things a little. Come on, let's change the mood, the atmosphere. It works the quadriceps a bit like that. And so, we arrive at the Carmine. This is a floor that is completely self-contained. So, they have their own toilets, there's even a smoking room. You'll see, they are very well equipped. There's a photo booth with some vintage-looking pictures and all that. There's a karaoke room if you want to sing with your friends and all that. What is it, people, they can privatize, is that it? Exactly. There you have it, the Carmine.
Nice. And look, they now have their own bar with our dear friend! regular bartender. I want to sing, is that okay? How are you,? [laughs] Ah, here, I'd like to introduce you to a guy who makes incredible cocktails. I'm sorry, I'm not the best customer for cocktails, I 'm sorry, I'm sorry. There are non-alcoholic cocktails. Ca n't you make protein shakes that would be like this? We're going to start a petition, we're going to start the petition. The evening is going well and everything, uh.
Okay, I've calmed everyone down, it's okay. Hey, everyone's in good standing [laughs] What are you saying? A? No, it's okay, thank you very much. No smoking, thank you very much. You see, there's the guy who lets go of the railing. 15 years on YouTube, perfect. What time do you wake up? It's a bit random. Actually, it depends on the time I go to bed, all that, but let's say it's more in terms of hours of sleep. And we film between 4 and 5 hours per night. Yes, yes, I can do that, that's great. That's the problem with security,
you're constantly on high alert. So, in fact, you are a little bit all the time. It's very hard to find sleep and all that. Ah, you see, I don't hide it Ah, you have to go to bed afterwards, it takes a while, yeah. Ah, but of course. And besides, we work in noisy conditions all the time. So, even if we have the traffic jams and all that, you know, we still need bags. I can't just go home and go straight to bed, it's very complicated. After that, well, I'm taking Z, magnesium, ashwagandha to try to. Do you have a nutrition plan or.? No. Ah, I'll make you a package, [laughs] then, I'll make you a package, I'll make you a package. So, did you do any studies or training related to this profession, or not?
So, I have colleagues who were in the army, they are former military personnel. But in fact, often it happens a bit by chance. And you see Nathan, whom you met, we met together during training. That's it, and he's the one who got me into the business. So he was already working there, he took the training, he got me into an establishment and then we have word of mouth and trust, I imagine. Absolutely, absolutely. As you can see, we're going to start forming the line because there are starting to be quite a few people. In fact, we're going to start structuring the inputs and outputs a bit. And after the good dress code, you'll see,
it's war, the good dress code. Yes, this way ladies and gentlemen. Good evening. Go ahead, please. In fact, there's going to be a back-and-forth. So, the people from the restaurant will leave, and then the people who came. And the bar closes at 2 AM, right? Yeah, actually the bar closes at 1:30 am. We're stopping service. After 1 hour 45 minutes, the music stops and it has to be -5 minutes before anyone else is there so we can start cleaning Is it a job where you take a lot of steps? Are you walking? Where are you pacing So, I don't have the watch, Nathan does. Please come this way. Good evening. But yeah, we walk a lot, a lot, a lot. It's paradoxical because we think we're often on the sidelines, but personally, I really like to
move around and that's why I like this hybrid position, being on the sidelines, going to the Carmine, going to the back, to the top and everything. I quite like that aspect of moving around a lot and all that. You can see the Because I remember when I was 18 and I wanted to go out to a nightclub, you try to appear sober in front of the nightclub bouncer. You succeed through experience, right? You can smell it. It shows The guy is like that, you know, like, " Ah, but the eyes, the behavior, the pupils that shine, that's it." When you have a doubt, well, you start talking to the person.
Exactly. You make him talk and at some point, he'll give himself away. Exactly, [laughs] exactly, exactly. There are lots of things. Then we could even make funny sentences sometimes. But sometimes you have guys who have incredible nerve trying to get into stuff, that's it. Sometimes there are funny things. No, but when you're drunk, you'll feel smarter, so yeah, there you go. Well, there are guys who always try other ways to try to get in or like that. But even now, identity cards, ChatGPT, you know guys they're changing them. But we have infallible techniques. Damn, we didn't have that back then, ChatGPT for editing.
Ah yeah. There are plenty of techniques now for modifying maps, but we're really, really keen. Yeah, I have my ID card here. What are you watching? So often you put it in the light, you know, like banknotes, which reflect the French Republic. If you can already copy that, you're really good. Like the tickets where you have the black strip right in the middle or something like that. On the back you usually have your date of birth but upside down. Exactly. Ah! 92 01 19. Oh [__]! Oh, I didn't even know that. Of course, of course.
Basically, when people aren't paying attention, they make changes in front but they do n't make changes behind. Ah! What's more complicated, let's say, you know, is the young people who have photos of the two of them, well, very young, actually, a bit like children and all. So, we ask some tricky questions, you know, but things like, you know, when we sign Astro, you know, when we sign Astro, if you know, you answer right away, or like, you know, we ask a question about the first three letters of your address. Sometimes it glitches if it's the older brother's card OK, OK, interesting, yes. It's true, it's not a healthy thing for us to do, but we have to protect ourselves. Because if we do a very
minor one and there are fewer problems or there is control. We'll come see you next, right? Absolutely, of course. So we try to be as hard as possible. Are you guys all good? Tell me, tell me. But dude, I started going to the gym because of you; I used to watch your videos. I come from Reunion Island. OK! I come from Reunion Island. I don't really like YouTubers, but you're the boss. You really are the boss. Thank you very much, it's an honor in any case. That's awesome guys, thank you. Here we are doing a report on the job of a security guard and so here we are doing the part really at the entrance of the bar and then we will go to a club and so we will
see, you see. I never go there, you see, it's not my world. That's nice. Thank you, that's kind of you. We send our love to all the subscribers who come from Reunion Island. Big kisses, guys. I will come to your place, I don't know when yet, but I promise I will come to your place. Do you have someone in your life? Not at all. Okay. Do you work in the world of.? Is this a job where you have to stay focused on the details? Obviously. Well, the problem is, why is my colleague laughing?
[laughs] Is it? No, but what is it actually for you? There are, but there are all the facets obviously, you're in contact with clients and everything, so you meet a lot of people and all that, it's cool. Yeah. If your goal is to go home with someone from the company, that way it can be done, but it can also be complicated. Both in terms of image in relation to your bosses and also in terms of the image of clients in general. After that, everyone is free to do what they want, there's no problem, yeah, there's no issue. But obviously you have to stay focused. You see, the nightlife scene moves very fast. I'm talking nonsense, but uh, you know, at the nightclub, we can talk at some point, you and I, I get a call in my earpiece:
"Come down, come down, come down, there's a fight down there, you have to. " But that shouldn't take away from it, of course, we're focused, but we 're smiling, you see, all that friendly stuff, all that good stuff of course. So, there's the colleague, what does the colleague do? He's going to raise the window and actually, it's to soundproof, so to speak, the terrace, exactly. This is so that basically the sound of people talking stays inside as much as possible and doesn't disturb the neighbors. And there you see, well, apparently it's full inside, so we're going to let even more people in. So now we're going to lock the door. So this will generate queues, potentially tensions, we avoid it, but there you have it.
And that's what can happen in a nightclub too. The nightclub has a smaller capacity, so it's a complete avoidance, so we queue, we try to slow people down as much as possible, because often people want to party and everything, so it's complicated. So basically in 3 minutes, we're going to empty the garden, that's what was agreed with the neighbors. There's the town hall, the neighbors, it's a whole. So, they had agreed on 11:30 pm in the summer. Okay, so we can start attacking. Nathan, who is he? Okay, I'll start with the ones I know. Ladies and gentlemen, good evening. I'm bothering you.
Okay, I'm sorry. None [laughs] none, that's very good. But I'm sorry, do you know why I'm coming to you? We're closing the garden, my dear, so you need to go inside. Yes, my dear. No, there's no nonsense, [laughs] you know very well. Okay, I'll let you finish your cigarette obviously and then we'll go inside. Thank you so much. Good evening. I you? Okay, I'll let you finish your cigarette of course, but afterwards I invite you to go inside. We're going to have to close the garden for our dear neighbors. To enjoy the evening, especially Chata. So. Okay, perfect. Thank you so much. Good evening. Thank you very much, have a good evening.
Girls, I'm bothering you, excuse me. Excuse me, I'm bothering you, good evening. Ladies and gentlemen, good evening. I'm bothering you. In fact, we're going to close the garden. I'm going to ask you to go back inside, we're going to close the garden. Ladies, I don't know if my colleague told you this or not. No. OK, we're closing the garden, so I'm going to send you inside. Finish the cigarette, of course. I'm going to send you inside, please; we're going to close the garden. Ladies and gentlemen, good evening. I don't know if my colleague told you that. Ah ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry, I have to ask you to make a golden ball here. Thank you so much. I 'm sorry, we're going to close the garden.
I can't do any better than that. But actually, we're going to close the garden. Sorry, I'm sending you inside. Thank you so much. That's very kind. Thank you very much, that's kind of you. On the other hand no, yeah no, yeah I am it can suit me that it's just the cigarette you light it you throw it in front. This one, seriously, you're killing me. And I had a lit one, yeah. Oh no, he'll kill me right now if he lights my cigarette. [laughs] It's because when we say we're going to deal with the job of security guard, of nightclub bouncer, we expect a lot of confrontations. And in fact, you realize that the goal is not to confront people, to humiliate them. In most cases, in
90% of cases, you say it's going well this way. Do you have an anecdote to tell? Not the worst night, but the worst thing. Oh, we had one not too long ago, uh. But actually, as I often tell you, it goes to the door. Yeah. Uh, not too long ago, we refused entry to some people who were already uh very drunk, under the influence of alcohol, there were drugs and alcohol in their blood, it was very hot. And actually, uh, my colleague gently put them back in their place, I pushed a little harder and it took on terrible proportions.
Terrible, meaning they jumped on us, everything ended up on the ground, uh, that's it. Do you ever get worried about people? It's happened before. Ah, of course. All the way to your place or.? And how are you? Are you actually monitoring when you take it? Are you always careful? The problem is that you are actually the problem, we know, we know that this is all part of the job. That's why, once again, we try to be as kind as possible. But unfortunately it can happen, you accidentally bump into someone at the door or unfortunately, you kick them out because they did something crazy. There are people
who have, uh, lunar behavior sometimes in nightclubs. We had a guy at the company not too long ago who had bad behavior towards women and all that. It can be very, very complicated. And sometimes we even tell them, "Come on, let's go outside." Even if you can be the nicest person in the world, the guy has a different, different view of things in his head. So he wants to settle things like that. So that's why I say that this profession is interesting for practicing combat sports. Well, it depends which ones, but because you already need a lot of self-control, you need self-confidence and all that. Because when diplomacy doesn't work. Unfortunately, afterwards, physical means must be used. But you
mustn't hurt him either. But we're very much involved in, uh, management, but sometimes you have to push. And that's why it's important to be much more present when you go out with a guy alone. I've already managed to get a guy who weighed me more than I do. It's tough, we need to gain the upper hand, that's it. We have to go, you see. You have hearts that rise and everything. When you're with several people, what kind of combat sport do you do So actually, I started with English boxing, but it's maybe not the best sport to. Yeah, it's almost what we mean when we say BJJ or grappling, that's why in my gym, we have a weight training area, but we also have a dojo area with a tatami mat where we do boxing and MMA classes.
OK. I'm becoming more and more interested in MMA. It is a discipline that is interesting for our profession, grappling in particular or wrestling in general, even if we avoid going to the ground. Because if we're on the ground, we're exposed. But here's the thing, it can be interesting to control rather than fight. So unfortunately, sometimes there are no other solutions. When you have three guys on you and you're all alone to fight back. But there you have it, in the last altercation we had, there were two of us at the door against five burly people. After that, I could tell you many more Of course. We have some, yeah. So, you see, we've emptied the garden.
Yeah. So obviously, everyone left. That's where we've done the sorting. Ah yes, you can tell there are more people here than before, finally. OK. So there, well, there are people. There, we're going to filter, you see, right now, while I'm talking to you, I'm looking a lot in the queue to see if there are any minors, if there are any faces that come back to me, positive or not. Thank you very much, that's very kind. You're looking at the bags, right? Yeah, always. So, basically, we're making little. uh. va mon? Is everything alright? What's this for? Do n't worry, we'll blur the faces.
We're not blurring it. [laughs] I like that. You see, that's the vibe I like. I like that very much. We'll see if we go inside afterwards. After, after, yeah. That's where we get people dancing, huh? It is? Oh yeah, I don't really know how to dance. Ah? Amazing, you dance well. Well, you see, people are on the road, so we're going to try to. Wolves, I'm just bothering you if you can come onto the sidewalk and not be on the road. That's perfect. No, no, there's no problem. Thank you so much. Yeah, you're going to have to look everywhere, actually.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Look everywhere, yeah. Well, you see, I know you're here and all, but at the same time I'm obviously very busy with work and everything. But it's really. People, people, they think you're my bouncer. Zima and Kouba are crossing their fingers that they don't end up in Kouba's stories. How are you, Kouba? Incredible, I'm making a YouTube video, man. It is? On the job of a security guard. Ah yeah. So, we're doing the bar part now, and then we'll do the nightclub part later Oh, magnificent.
Magnificent, man. Magnificent, magnificent! Super interesting because we just ran into Olly who then went into the bar. But it wasn't planned at all, so there you go, it's too good, it's too funny. So here we go, we're going inside, we're going to see the Chattam party now. Let's analyze all of this a little. Okay, off we go. Look, look at the war this is. Yeah. So there's a security guard there, and another one near the DJ. Let's go see Carmine, come on. That's why I'm telling you I can't sleep right now, my brother Jean. Because here it's until 6am, then it's the same, there's the nightclub.
We're taking you to two areas, we're getting some fresh air, uh. Good evening. That? Yes, I'm fine, are you okay? Delighted. Is that yours? Congratulations of course, very good. No planks, no abs tonight. No core strengthening, no core strengthening. [laughs]! The difference is incredible.! So, marriage then, that's it, soon, uh.! Congratulations, that's great. Well, enjoy everything anyway, and it's very, very, very beautiful, uh. Is the water bottle called Monglan or what Monglan, oh yeah.
Well [laughs] listen, it's, it's, it's okay, you. And well, you didn't tell your friends who booked the place for me, who only brought me here for.? Well, a very good wedding, [laughs] good evening anyway, enjoy! How do you organize your nights because it's 1am now, what time do you finish work? So, since we're going to the nightclub, I'll finish around 6am, 6am, 6:30am depending on the number of people, if we manage to get everyone out quickly and if there isn't too much cleaning to do because we participate in cleaning at the nightclub.
Let's say I get home, it's 7am or 7:30am, uh, there's breakfast because, well, I eat quite a bit and all, you know, there's always this buffer zone. I usually go to bed around 8:30 or 9:00, let's say I get up around 13:00 or 14:00, I try to get some sleep, you know. Is it hard to sleep during the day, or are you used to it now? It's not easy. Actually, winter is better because if you don't see the sunrise, it's easier for you to fall asleep. You see, I'm the same. But I was going to tell you, that's a lifestyle you're not familiar with. It's you, I know you get up very early. For me it's 10:30 PM to 6 AM. That's good, that's good, that's good. And so now I'm struggling,
I'm stepping out of my comfort zone. The first few times I worked in the nightlife industry, you fall over and stand next to the speaker to try and stay upright and all that, but it's really only when you have the Tiger, where it's from 10pm to 2am, that's okay. It's a suitable way of life. It's the nightclub that kills. It's 1 a.m., the alcohol is starting to kick in, so that's when you need to be a little more careful. Exactly. Then you see people starting to shout a little louder and everything is starting to wake up a bit. That's why we're being careful here, and it's good to put the brakes back on a bit to remind everyone that we're here. So.
You see that we are very nice, smiling and all, but you have to tell them not to take us for painters because if there are people who shout, there are people who can get angry next door and all that, it's a bit complicated. So that's why we're applying a little pressure. So what's going on, Paul? Okay, so now we're going to make the transition between the Tiger Club and the Pique nightclub where I'll let my colleagues finish up peacefully. It is? Exactly. Anyway, in 10 minutes we'll actually turn off the music. So, afterwards they kick everyone out and then we go straight to the nightclub. And so, well, since I'm the security manager at the nightclub, the goal is to arrive
before the customers and then we start the other life. Okay, let's go, I'm going to change outfits. Ah, 1:36, right? Look, I'm not lying, guys. 1 hour 36 minutes. Let's change our lives. Let's go. Here we go. I am known for being the bouncer at the Tiger, but also at Pique. I make sure to do my job well and as a result the town hall gets less negative feedback from us. That's a real job, that's for sure. You'll see, won't you? Now we enter the arena. Ah, but we can already see that, right? Maybe we're going to the.? So here we go, we're moving on to the second part of the evening, the nightclub. So now we're going to Pique's place in the
Segor power station. It brings back memories for me because that's where I used to go when I was 20 years old and I'm going back there 15 years later to make YouTube videos, it's actually quite funny. OK, so this is the entrance. Exactly. Ah, I haven't been to a nightclub in years. Yeah, so here we have the changing room, that's where I'm going. I'm going to change and all that. Ahyeah. There? That? Yeah, there's a little surprise guest. There? You see me singing there, is that okay? Yeah, it's fine.
Yeah, very good, thank you. Oh my god, a nightclub, what. Oh, it's been years since I've been to a nightclub. Oh dear, what a story. So, it's always the same. OK, is this your locker room? Yeah, exactly. But here, it's still the same. Actually, I'm the one in charge of security here. So, uh, these guys are putting up radios like they do at Tiger. We get equipped, then we need to communicate and all that. I had obviously prepared so I wouldn't be bored tonight. So, here you'll discover my little gadgets for the nightclub. They are super practical. The first one is the laser. In fact, you see, when there are a lot of people in the pit, instead of
sending someone directly if there is some kind of behavior In fact, I'm going to light it up in his face, he'll immediately understand that what he's doing is wrong and he'll stop. OK. It's a pretty handy thing.! So. And then, uh, I have my, uh, classic lamp. I don't know if I'll have it tonight, yes. So these are lamps, you know, they're lumens. It's very powerful. So if we're dealing with someone who's very aggressive like that, I put it in their face and it actually creates an effect on them, it makes a black mark. I'm already disorienting him a little. Or, quite simply, it's just that people lost keys in the box and all that. When everyone has to get
involved, you don't see everything. Okay, there you go. For me, it's both the laser and the lamp. There, you have something that's not bad at all. This is the main entrance. There are people who want to get in faster using the VIP section. There are the smokers. Sometimes you have to push a little because people, yeah, but they get a little worked up. Hi Loulou. There? Go ahead, please. What is the tampon used for? Knowing that people are well paid, they are valued by our clients. Because there are some who have smoked afterwards, they come out here.
OK. So you see, it's simply to prevent there being any liars, in quotes. So, we're counting here. Are you counting the number of? Yeah, he's got the clicker. Always be much more careful. You see, the box is much wider. What is the maximum number of people needed? There are around a hundred people. In any case, things are actually changing. After the people, they will go down, they will go out, they will come back a little later, they will go to the other box. It's going to empty out. From what I can tell, security is at its maximum. Hey guys, we're going to save some time. If you want to go back in, you have your
identity cards, right? I'd like that. No phone already, that's a bad start, but oh well. You don't have a card? Oh, and you're from 2008 too, if I may say so. If you're not interested in having your image blurred, just say so. My chicken, that won't be possible. There, you see, that's a typical example. He showed me a card, but he modified it. I have a card and I messed it up, I messed it up, I modified it, I looked at its settings and it's not good. So I refused it. Sorry guys. There you go, nothing against you, but anyway. And I'm going to be even less kind to the camera, as you can well imagine. Alright, good evening gentlemen, thank you very much. Did he have a physical card or an electronic one?
In fact, he had a SIM card on the phone, which I already don't like, especially since they were all 2008 models. When they're 2008 models and you don't have the SIM card, it's usually red. But what's more, young people now have France Identité, so you don't really have an excuse anymore. If there's France Identity, that's really great, show it to me right away, it's all good. So sometimes, I like to see it as a photo on the phone. No, we see it, we edit it, you know, unless the whole group has their card and one of them introduces me. But you see, we actually have an answer for everything; there are guys who tell me they lost their wallets. OK, show me the statement
you made to the police when you lost your [child], you're not small. I'm doing well. That's exactly it. So you see the people who have glasses and everything, I'm just going to ask them for some of my chicken, right? Just coming is no problem, but you'll obviously have to finish your drink to get into the club, that's all. Okay no yeah okay no calm down, don't choke. But no worries, you won't be able to bring it back, that's fine, thank you very much. There you go , there you go, it's okay, it's still a little bit quiet, but after when the whole bar, the corridor and everything closes, you'll see it's going to accelerate quite intensely. And then, in addition, sometimes, well, it's
not our job, we don't get involved, but sometimes there are fights really right in front, it's the city's private security that goes there. And we're keeping an eye on things because if they're overwhelmed by the numbers or something like that, well, we still need to help, in quotes. Who is it? Yes, it's you. Girls, gently, gently. I recognized you, wait, the guy is super famous. Yes, but girls, we can do it more gently. What are you? Is everything alright? So, how are you? What are you here for? You're the guy?
No, I'm not the guest unfortunately, we're doing a report, we're making a YouTube video. Ah, what? Are you okay? Are you lost or what? Uh, we live here now. Amazing. Ah, the Waï, that's true. Ah, a quick question. Thank you very much, that's very kind. THANKS. And where do you live? We are now in the Basque Country. We moved to the Basque Country. You see, normally they accept us. If you see, you negotiate with social security. Don't film me.
No, blur we blur. My dear, you know that the goal of getting into a nightclub is to behave like a saint, a little bit like a saint. No, but my dear, excuse me, look gently. I trust you. Right now, you don't seem right to me, my dear, but I'm. I'm out of sync. Relax, my dear. My little chicken, can you? That's all I'm telling you. I can already tell you're really excited about all this, I'm counting on you, we'll have a good evening, no worries and all that.
The truth is, I'm not going to get angry at all. Perfect, perfect, perfect. I'm telling you this with all kindness, no animosity, there you go, there's no problem. There will be no debate. Okay, I'm counting on you as much as possible, that's right. You mustn't let yourself go, that's it, but I swear to you. Okay, that's nice. What's interesting is, like you were saying, you can tell that people are a bit more drunk compared to the bar earlier Yeah, absolutely. In terms of the singing, the look, and everything else.
[cheers] Guys, just for the sake of appearances, a tiny bit. Thank you very much, that's all. There, perfect, perfect, perfect. It's hard to talk to drunk people. Yeah, it has to be perfect, perfect, perfect. Perfect, ASMR, the ASMR of drunk people. That's exactly it. That's good, there you go, good guys and all. Once again, hello. If you go at it aggressively, then they might come after you. If you approach them politely, they'll respect you even when they're drunk. At Tiger, you have eyes everywhere, but then again, you could end the evening with a migraine from all the moving around.
How long has it been since you started throwing butts? For me, it's been 6 years. You've been throwing asses for 6 years, OK. And what is the biggest mess you've ever seen in La? Well, actually, uh, I was working in La Rochelle in a nightclub, I was at the door and a guy came outside asking me for help, saying there was someone fighting on the other side. Is this that you can? So, I'm going to take it out. So I accompany them outside, they are talking amongst themselves, one of them offers him a cigarette to calm the situation. So I went back to the door and then he pulled out a knife and stabbed me 7 times
in the body. So, shocked, the first thing that came to my mind was to get there, they were on the ground, I gave him a big kick in the head. He left, I ran after him. I caught up with him, I brought him back, we. I got the police and the police came. Apparently, the guy got uh two or three years in prison. OK. And the other one, who was a bartender at a bar right behind the nightclub. Well, apparently he got off pretty well because it didn't hit any vital points.
OK. So, uh, he still had a few days of sick leave. A few weeks of sick leave, yeah. I was off work for a few weeks, but yeah, yeah, that was it You must have been hallucinating at first, you must have been hallucinating, all right. I was stunned. You had the courage to go and get it because I had a little while to react. It happened, uh, two or three seconds. Yeah. And then afterwards I went there and I thought, well, I still have to go because I started to have some blood. So these are all the bottles that people can buy, right? Yeah. Are they paying now or are they paying later? They are paying now.
What's the most expensive thing you own? THE? Champagne, yeah. Magnum 400. Oh yeah. What do they take the most? What are they taking? The Absolute. Classic Absolut vodka. It is? Okay, we'll do it, there you go, come on, come here If he's muscular, we'll leave him. Is he? My chicken, look, look, look. You tell me you're not going to cause a problem, I go downstairs and tell your son. So what do I do? I'm doing a? How's mine? Yeah, but you can see that.
The problem is that you swear to me. So come on, put your t-shirt back on. Yeah, well, wait, I think it's hot. Yeah, I think we're gonna smoke him. Ah yes, we'll go and talk upstairs. But I see your attitude now, and I don't like it. Go easy, my little chicken Quiet, quiet. Wait two seconds. Come on. Come with me. Look, my little chick, I'm being very nice to you, there's no problem. But actually you're taking me for a painter, and that's what I don't like. You 're the first person to tell me "I swear."
You're already swearing. You swear and you're the first to do something crazy downstairs. So that already means that you don't respect yourself, you don't respect me. It's not crazy, he took off his shirt, there's nothing crazy about it. But please. But then I want to. So that's it, I can't even explain all this to him. I'm very nice, I set him straight. But why are you taking me for a fool? That's a shame. I'm just here explaining that he swears to me he won't cause any problems. Am I? I am super nice and respectful. But here's the thing. But that's exactly what I'm trying to tell you, that when you say things, if you're a man, you follow through. You?
Then you told me, "I swear I'm not causing any problems." I come downstairs, you're shirtless. Do you think that's the kind of behavior you should have in a company? But do you think being shirtless in a nightclub is a good thing? There you go , that's good, my chicken. So, okay. I think that's fine, but the problem is that since you told me you swore there wouldn't be a problem and I come downstairs and you're already shirtless, I think it's better if we stop the evening there. I think it's best if you go home quietly and we'll see each other another time. Yes, my dear. Because the problem is that you're already telling me, "I swear there won't be a problem." I go downstairs, you're already shirtless. So what's it
going to be like in one? What are you going to do in two? Yeah, I know, but oh well. Look, I have nothing against him, but look, I prefer that we stop now and avoid anything else. Okay, but I appreciate it. Thank you so much. Okay, it's not a big deal. So. Yeah, I appreciate it. There you go, but that's good Okay, thank you very much. Good evening. Actually, my colleague Alex was watching the cameras because we have a screen right above us with lots of cameras in the nightclub. And he spotted a guy who was shirtless. And this is someone who, even at the entrance, I noticed was, it would
seem, already quite drunk. So I told him, "My dear, I trust you, let's take it slow." and everything. Bad luck, I go downstairs, and it's him who's shirtless. So that's a lot, I take him out, I tell him "Listen, you're getting some fresh air and everything." On the other hand, his friends who did nothing, plus they took a bottle, it pisses me off to have to throw the whole group out. You see, they are not responsible for the actions of their friends. So I gladly invite them to come back and then we continue the evening. Paul, it's 3am, for me guys it's the end of the evening. Good luck, until what time Well, we'll be there until between 5:30 and 6:00.
5:30 to 6:00. What a job, honestly, and a big thumbs up for Paul. Please give Paul a thumbs up in the comments, he deserves it. We're going to bed. Thank you so much. Thank you. See you soon. Ciao guys. Thank you so much.
