Inside Delta Force Selection's Infamous 40-Mile Ruck | Bob ‘Ninja’ Porras

[@TheReedMorinShow]

Could you do the 40 mile ruck? Full Episode: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qITaoKOflttqppI

[@nrgylol]

Lol in one day. ez.

[@martinezjames83]

2 miles an hour? Depends on what the reward is

[@timishii170]

On my best day? Doubt it.

[@klink708]

I was 10th Mountain 30 years ago. We did 30 miles every month or two hiking back in from the woods. It usually took around 11 hours mostly on dirt roads. When you drop your ruck it felt like you were walking on air.

[@billynomates920]

maybe in a helo

[@Stewart5225]

Mr Porras is an inspiration! Respect

[@psudoctor3336]

I did a 75 mile ruck star course and got a patch from a Ranger and a Delta Force Operator… one of the toughest endurance events Iv’e done, and ended up in the ICU for 5 days and almost died and was transfused 9 times… good times. Wouldn’t change it for the world, learned a lot about myself under weight for those many miles in the Pain Cave.

[@JeffGush-pu8fy]

What a great tough guy full of humility and character!

[@wildmanturner]

Regular army wants followers who follow orders and are told what to do. Delta wants individuals who are independent and self sufficient…. But can work as a team. Not all men can walk through the wild mountains in the dark at night for 40 miles.

[@An_Enraged_Pig]

Thanks high speed!

[@HyperHyena88]

Shit man I have that feeling at work just about every day LOOL

[@dieterh.9342]

These narratives are useful for us not tier 1 military in that when, in life, when we think we can't go on, but with the help of the Holy Ghost, no Cross is too heavy.

[@thomashawkins6141]

Never give up! Strength honor courage

[@charlesopuoro5295]

Fatigue makes cowards of us all!

[@craigcrawford6749]

Ah, fatigue makes me tired, doesn't really turn me into a coward.

[@olijames7321]

No it doesn’t

[@charlesopuoro5295]

Chances are neither of you have been in the throes of war.

[@craigcrawford6749]

@charlesopuoro5295 wtf does that have to do with your idiotic statement?

[@pepitopalotes5608]

What I do not understand is that in order to get people that excel at CQB, you select them on the basis on how good they are at navigating and walking fast. Well, the system obviously works, but it must be frustrating for those dudes that passed relatively easily the selection phase to be dropped because they cannot CQB for shit.

[@blacklotusgym]

Where’s the episode on how he got that name ? Ninja

[@risefromtheashes6623]

Looks like a Home Depot manager, would never guess he was at the highest level in the military

[@dennisnguyen8105]

President Trump completed the 40 mile ruck under 4 hours, running backwards while singing our National Anthem in perfect pitch.

[@hankcom34]

They told him he completed the courses faster and better than any ever had before and thought he should be promoted to general.

[@TheAcceleratorMagazine]

Sir, I apologize and absolutely no disrespect but part of my, not crippling PTSD, is that I can't listen to or follow multiple people talking at once, picture the VIEW. Another is someone talkin but the storyline jumps around. I even talk like that myself sometimes but sadly I cannot follow your super interesting story. Not your fault but mine. I tried just using captions but the captions couldn't keep up either. Try it. So I will try again later when brain is possibly smoothed out a bit. rick in Tennessee. Didn't see anyone else mention it but thot you would like to know that some folks with closed head trauma, especially with cumulative effect, might have same problem. Not regular or former military tho have been law enforcement, medic and military contractor in several countries for over 40yrs. Shitt happens in every job and civilian occupation or just strolling thru life. PTSD can occur from just one horrible incident. Sorry, we all know this but I comment like I talk. Too much and too boring. My life has been a series of undeserved miracles thru much trauma and cancers, over 30 surgeries. No complaints just info but no one would want to hear bout it. That's ok.

modeled on 22sas...

[@leoamaya1818]

Everything hurts, but would you ever say “ I’m too tired to save her life “

[@MrBuds58]

easy

[@JB-td9fz]

22 do the same selection but it's harder due to weather and it's not viewed as remotely the toughest part of selection. There's levels to everything.

[@GrimReaper-te7sr]

What is 22

[@JB-td9fz]

@GrimReaper-te7sr oh dear..

[@deandarvill3821]

@GrimReaper-te7sr The original Delta Selection was based predominantly but not completely on the hill phase of 22 SAS selection process. Once hills are passed, SAS candidates go on to jungle training, which is often considered the hardest part of their selection.

[@GrimReaper-te7sr]

@@deandarvill3821 Thanks very much for enlightening me

[@Thebluesky0311]

That's not true at all, both sas and delta are equally hard as they both have to deal with weather!

[@amj3602]

What a boring interview

[@CleverDowed]

What a boring comment

[@PeterReeves-s6k]

What a boring life😅

[@SrAntonio301]

Interviewer seems bored.

[@Youtubesuckz976]

The music is really F’n annoying dude

[@DarkwaterUlf]

It is just about 50 seconds in total and only intro and outro. It is just some slow ambient guitar music. What is your problem? Why bother people with your negative attitude?

[@RC-br1ps]

Get annoyed, that is YOUR choice.
