‘I knew it’: SAS Australia’s Firass Dirani SLAMS Channel Seven for editing him as ‘the villain’ – despite his antics causing two team members to quit
His cocky antics caused two team members to quit SAS Australia within two days.
But on Tuesday, Firass Dirani hit back at Channel Seven in an Instagram video to fans – where he claimed the network is portraying him as the ‘villain’ of the series.
‘I knew it. I knew they were going to make me into the villain!’ the 37-year-old said in front of his 62,000 followers.

‘There has to be a villain ladies and gentleman. There HAS to be a villain. And, low and behold – right here, this is it,’ he said, pointing at himself.
Firass certainly hasn’t won many fans over with his role on the military-style series so far.
His overconfident attitude has angered the DS (directing staff) on many occasions, with the rest of the team being punished twice due to his actions.
On Monday’s premiere episode, Roxy Jacenko sensationally quit after just six hours following a punishment targeted at Firass.
Unimpressed with the House Husbands star’s attitude, the DS made the celebrities submerge themselves in freezing cold water as punishment.

But an emotional Roxy, 40, refused to get into the water, and instead told the instructors that she wanted off the show.
On Tuesday, as they prepared for another grueling task, chief instructor Ant Middleton asked the celebrity recruits if they’d heard the phrase ‘loose lips sink ships’.
He then singled out the actor, and referred to an incident earlier on when Firass jeeringly said he’d hoped they be running.
Ant then directed the others to all run a series of sprints as punishment, but ordered Firass to stand back and watch.

‘What the f**k are you doing? Why the f**k are you washing yourself with drinking water?’ shouted Ant
But Schapelle Corby struggled to keep up during the punishing exercise, turning in her armband and consequently quitting the show.
Firass again infuriated the DS staff during Tuesday’s episode when he used drinking water to wash mud off his face.
‘What the f**k are you doing? Why the f**k are you washing yourself with drinking water?’ shouted Ant.
‘Do not f**king waste drinking water to f**king clean yourself!’ the furious instructor yelled, before throwing the flask at Firass.
SAS Australia continues Monday at 7.30pm on Channel Seven
