Royal Marine Beasting

924 Troop - Commando : On The Front Line

[@nully88]

I once seen a lad in the royal navy facing a wall for an hour doing star jumps shouting ''I am a twat'' because he was late from dinner

[@sichere]

And he was a Rear Admiral !!

[@charleswindsor7835]

yeah he got off light

[@davidharrison441]

After 20 years in the royal navy I can confirm they are by far the best at beasting and general evil behaviour.

[@davemerry1912]

I served in the 60s. The instructors then did not use foul language except in exceptional circumstances.

[@Samuel11336]

When I was at Lympstone the training team would tuck me into bed at night and bring me Horlix.

[@sniffadoghq]

Samuel11336 Bless ya did you get a bed time story too 😂

[@sichere]

They would often let us sleep in the showers too !

[@GolfingInParadise783]

Mine did too, after making me hang in the pull up bar outside my grot 😂😂 lovely bedtime stories too

[@markgable101]

I remember I left my wife ( rifle) to get a drink a couple of yards away..... Big mistake.!!!! I received a 10 mile slog in full battle gear and bergan... Never again did make that mistake.

[@chrismc410]

Loss of or failing to secure your weapon can and often will put the base and the surrounding area on lockdown until accounted for and usually results in the worst smoke sessions imaginable if not UCMJ charges or both and rightfully so on this side of the pond

[@dexus8762]

Cheers dit’s

[@foryourlugsonly]

I once left mine up against a tree and went for a pish almost aide by side with the rifle. I was made to do 500 laps of that tree singing. "This is my rifle and i love her. I will never let her down again" 500 fucking laps. Never made that mistake again though.

[@B-Durry]

my sgt once thought it be funny to play rock paper scissors with the company, you have to win 3 times in a row or you run uo a hill that basically just goes directly up for 100 m in full combat fatigues. i won 6 times in a row and the look on his face when i walked to the truck was priceless lol

[@Pax.Britannica]

That didnt happen to be the hill at straight point did it? 😂

[@clarissamcpigeon7857]

I reckon this has been edited the wrong way round for effect. It kind of looks to me like the beasting for not wearing combat body armour actually came BEFORE they started firing - there's no way they'd even be allowed on the range without it and no way any NCO would risk their own arse by not enforcing the rules.

[@bighands69]

Commandos is all out tough dangerous training. Not wearing gear can happen. They are not children. Training used to be a lot more dangerous than it is today.

[@nakenmil]

Can't ever say we used CBO on the firing range back when I was in the army, though that wasn't the British or Yank ones.

[@Backs4more]

Except you can clearly see they are not wearing it.....1:23 on the LSW's

[@mad7206]

I remember being in NBC gear for 15 min and 2 guys started fighting over which one was slacking more ' I couldn't stop laughing '

[@Sagittbrit]

you're right in some ways but in the RM you tend to not get actually shouted at, it's normally just a quiet word with you or the instructor having a bite at you, they learnt if you shout at the recruits like on films then they'll just go "what's the point?" and leave, but it happens on serious stuff like this. but apart from that you're very right, depends on what the bosses are like

[@Cheshirev1]

Trust me mate we got shouted at a fucking lot in training.

[@chrisyboy666]

It pays to be a winner it pleases my hart that I'll never have to hear that again if they think that's a beasting wait until they get a proper one that lasts for hours

[@DavidSmith-rc2bk]

[@DnBDaily]

@sockschappercat Its part of training, Marines can't just give up at the first sign of pain like others do, they need to keep going and not stop until they acheive their goal. Thats what makes them one of the most feared conventional forces in the world.

[@princefancybum4605]

+Kieron Dixon I was supposed to start basic in March but injured my knee a few weeks before when running so I've had to postpone until 9th of May. It's a bit disappointing but I'll get there in the end. I just need to start building my running up again as I've had to have 8 weeks off for my knee to recover

[@alexmurdie9478]

[@conornewman123]

Prince Fancybum wouldn't bother bro, the life you have after passing out really isn't worth all the shit you have to go through in training

[@steve1mufc]

You can now stand toe to toe with the RAF Reg in the bar and ask them about their last day. 👍

[@canuckscountry]

I'm in the Canadian Armed Forces. We call it getting beasted 'getting Jacked Up'. And getting jacked up is no fun. Two notable incidents I remember of getting jacked up from my BMQ days. One time our ten squad machine guns assigned out between five sections of the course, the spare barrels got mixed up with the other sections. Recruits from all five section sections had to sit in the rocking boat pose in a circle, passing the machine gun parts around until the serial #s matched. Another moment of getting jacked up was doing the 'Day in an Hour' *shivers*

[@DnBDaily]

@SpoutnikMKV The French foreign legion is a tottally different concept to the royal marines. This was only 8 weeks in and the original video was designed to drum up recruiting numbers. If you go into RM training today you won't be so snarky by the end of the first week. Assuming you even get that far.

[@davidharrison441]

I would also mention that being the squad comic does not go well with NCOs . They would beast you till you wanted to die but the comic would always come up smiling and laughing which made them even more mad , i know , i did it for 20 years and i dont regret a single second of it .😅😅😅😅😅

[@sockschappercat]

He's not trying to be scary, he's just making a point and wants to be heard and understood. Most training teams prefer forcing recruits to subject themselves to discomfort and pain over shouting and giving out cleaning jobs as punishment, anyway.

[@GolfingInParadise783]

We rarely got shouted at when I was a nod… simple ‘press up position down’ they don’t need to shout lol

[@jasonferguson4247]

I've watched this series a few times and always thought it was "Bee Sting".

[@Voltaire152]

@mebecallum Well i think its more a case of, breathing through a restricted air flow, WHILE running (which normally requires max air flow to stop a build up of lactic acid) WHILE also carrying combat webbing, a weapon, etc which would trigger your body to demand even MORE air, also on uneven, possibly soft ground as well... Having done CqC in restricting body armour i can say its a horrible feeling to have your ability to breath restricted when you want to breath more....

"The pioneers of a warless world are the young men (and women) who refuse military service." - Albert Einstein

[@tyroneulisses1764]

No, that just incentives other nations to invade you. Einstein was an idiot.

[@dabtican4953]

Dumb thing for that narcissist liar to say. There will always people who wanna go to war whether for reasons you agree with or not. Einstein was German Jewish and fled Nazi Germany and I'm sure he wouldn't have wanted all the people who died destroying Nazi Germany to have refused to go to war as it would have resulted in the annihilation of his race and him eventually of course cause if no American infantryman wanted to fight then the Nazis would have just walked in and gassed him. If he truly said that it makes me dislike him even more.

yeah i know what you mean, the shouting stuff is good because it tests your dedication, but a lot of british forces, namely the RM have taken to the train them, don't shout at them approach, we just see it as if they're there, don't risk them leaving, after all, the RM is only around 8000 men in total. but, if you're in any military, you're gonna get beasted!

I wonder which is worse: being beasted or being smoked? Yes i know they're kind of synonymous on paper, the British Army, Royal Navy and Royal Marines call it being beasted. The U.S. Armed Forces call it being smoked

[@unhoymatrimony3024]

I think the the U.S. Marines are most likely to go overboard with the yelling shit. Like you mentioned, movies such as 'Full Metal Jacket' etc have too much influence unfortunately. I went through Specwarfare training in San Diego and the first month they rip you a new one but, once they realize who is going to remain and take it serious.... they get down to your level more and talk to you more like a peer instead of a smurf.

[@unhoymatrimony3024]

I'm not trying to start an argument as I came here in respect but, actually it is very similar as far as the yelling and what not. It mostly depends on your branch of service and particular drill instructor.

Why won't their body armour stop a round from a assault rifle? I know the idea of bullet proof armour is bollocks but surely armour to stop that sized round can't be that heavy right???

[@catlee8064]

The basic CBA (combat body armour) only has a small Kevlar plate front and back and it just about covers your heart, the rest is a kevlar weave designed to stop small shrapnel. The ones you use on ops has a much bigger and thicker plate front and rear.

[@hogwash9140]

Kevlar itself won't stop a high calibre rifle round. There are thick ceramic plates available that slide into the body armour covers (to be worn with the kevlar) which will, but they're heavy.
