MrBallen Reveals The Truth About Navy SEAL Training… | John Allen

[@annburdges9534]

Thank you for your service, and sacrifices. Please also know your generosity through the MrBallen Foundation serves so many victims of violence with hope moving forward and it is sincerely appreciated!!

[@ricosuave7102]

Mr. Ballen is a professional at speaking. He didn’t make one error in grammar,annunciation and pronunciation.

[@lieneleanne.5613]

Ironic that this made him unpopular inthe community (not cool to be smart just like school huh)

[@Matua01]

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. ALWAYS GREAT TO HEAR YOUR POV.

[@renegadearms]

I would say the Green Berets are the best at a multitude, I mean who else can you drop in with 12 guys and create an Army of hundreds or thousands, the military’s multi tool is the GBs. Much respect to Mr Ballen though seems like a really good guy.

[@Rubeless]

All units can and do that.

[@BillLeonard-c8s]

“SEALs we do everything “, yes and you make sure everyone hears about it!

[@RyderGroveSt]

So original bud “A seal, green beret and Delta force walking into a bar…. The seal wrote a book about it” most tired joke ever.

[@cjstone28]

Sounds like jealousy

[@hope121107]

[@QYRANG]

Mr. Ballen is a class act. Sincere respect for this man from Canada 🇨🇦

[@kevinb7126]

Really great explanation of the whole process . Super articulate .

[@LisaStephanieFranklin]

Regardless of who's what..I am very impressed that he got off his block, applied, gained entry, trained, travelled and did something... We are have individual impressions, experiences and information decimination. Right or wrong it is His Truth. AS I WROTE ABOVE..HE DID SOMETHING, had a go at a successful idea. Has a huge following and HE'S BEING INTERVIEWED NOT YOU. .Let it Go/Be. Your comments are valuable as well. They are opinions. Thank god they vary or life would be dull..love steph❤

[@aoandd]

Ballen has a great presentation. Anytime he speaks, especially when he's explaining something like this. His cadence is perfect. I'll tune in to the full show & I can't wait. Thanks Bal..

[@Chiller11]

A study was done that found the characteristic that correlated most consistently with those that passed SEAL training was a difficult childhood. The successful applicants had a high need for acceptance and approval.

[@jonpicojones4032]

Many SF operators come from dysfunctional homes. An interesting pattern.

[@Djudo-q9x]

My oldest brother is a former SEAL. He told me loved buds plus we had a swimming pool in our back yard

[@TylerPereira-i4o]

That is the dumbest, most false thing I’ve ever read

[@saqu7143]

He is very right on the question on who makes it. Same here.

[@QuanPookie]

I think people are becoming SEAL’s nowadays just so they can become KZbinrs and make more money after getting out.

[@Rubeless]

It’s always been this way. They know everyone knows the name and there is no explanation needed. Tell someone you are in a force recon or raider platoon, they will say so what.

[@amongorangr]

That’s why they always need anyone but seals to save them and have massive mission faliures

[@circuscase]

It all goes back to "Navy SEALs" with Charlie Sheen and Steven Seagal with "Under Seige." Thats why I am going to sign up for the Navy.

[@Rubeless]

Sure you will. You’ll be a Walmart stocking shelves

[@MiClLC]

Why is your sub count high, but views and comments low?

[@joeywever9194]

A Delta guy, a green beret and a seal walk in to a bar.. and the seal wrote a book about it

[@josiahneal9440]

Army Sf Is for sure harder and more useful I Love you Mr ballen but it’s a fact not a opinion do some research your extremely good at it

[@Rubeless]

You never even joined the cub scouts.

[@redxgear9815]

Agreed. There's a reason why Delta and GB's are the unsung "heroes" of specops. The training is much more immersive and grueling. Im not saying that BUDS is a walk in the park, but anyone familiar with Army training knows how demanding Army requirements are for special forces. And then there's the issue of ego...nuff said

[@JohnWilliams-wz9vk]

Did Ranger 12-90..as an NCO ..Airborne was a joke. I was 6 foot 2 200..after eating for 2 days .at end of Ranger I weighed 164. .The Ranger Course then .was a legit guy check ..graduated about 100..out of 400..plus recycles..1 killed in Dugway..SMOKE SHOW . then .add no sleep .

[@vettevegas]

[@5150Reaper]

Im gonna say Delta Force is more trained. Quiet professionals & sounds cooler 😆

[@Rubeless]

Because you went through both. Just shut up

[@John_Lumbra]

Delta Force Recruits from Seal Teams and the other top SF operators in the other branches of service. They are already highly accomplished multi million dollar men before joining delta force. Those men are the best of the best of the best of the best. Refer to the Show The Unit. They’ve all been in active combat theaters and basically are selected to Delta. Of course. The Gov spends millions on training those men. Plus they get the best equipment….. However you can’t just get into delta without already being in the SF for quite some time prior…. Also have to survive to join Delta

[@kevinsmith9842]

Ex 7th group SF here. I wouldn't trust a seal to tie my shoes. SF or Delta... full stop... for anything that needs to get done in a clandestine environment.

[@jtr1019]

What is a SF or delta?

[@saqu7143]

🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

[@crimclay1077]

Definitely with all the scandals with the seals in recent years I also was going to say delta 👍

[@Bob-zh7lr]

Son, earning the green beret is incredibly hard. What years were you at Ft Bragg?

[@mrmichael972]

This is a ridiculous comment. You obviously know nothing about either.

[@tatanovic27]

@@Bob-zh7lr I know it's hard, in fact SFAS is one of the hardest SOF selection in America, but not in the world.. The hardest selection process in the planet is found in BUDS, SAS, SASR, CAG, Devgru, FSK, KSK, etc However I am tired of seeing all these former SF guys talking nonsense about the SEALs, because SEALs may not be superior to green berets BUT BUDS is way harder than SFAS and Q course. I think that Green berets should be more modest and recognize that they are not the world best, that title is for Devgru and Delta Force.

[@tatanovic27]

@@mrmichael972 there are some dudes in the Shawn Ryan Show and combat story channel who are former green berets, and many of them say that in the old days the selection was not so hard, but I have never heard a single person in the SEAL teams saying otherwise about buds. Also a lot of men join the Army SOF units because they can't swim very well, and it is okay but it's not okay to talk bs about those who join the SEALs and those who swim better, let's be humble and recognize our own weaknesses.

[@Bob-zh7lr]

@ Delta is the best but most SF guys also went through Ranger school. They usually have levels of hard training before selection begins is all I’m trying to sayi

[@billysmart24830732]

I certainly don't mind sharing my own military experiences but how many times can all these SF guys talk about the good old days? These Ppodcasts never seem to stop and are regurgitated

[@Seaneskatejitsu]

Yeah it’s pretty wack

[@mrmichael972]

You were in the military and you are calling him "SF"?

[@Rubeless]

Because he was in a support mos and doesn’t know SF is an army unit only. He means SOF or SO. I’m sure he failed his asvab and works at Burger King.

[@LoreleiLux]

Isn't this the guy who recites David Paulides' research as a spooky story-time for views on YT? Invite Mr. Paulides for an interview next time???

[@KGCARO24]

Delta yes but wouldn’t put white side SF on that level. A lot of SF guys were finance and other soft skill MOS before graduating selection and Q course. SF is good at FID not necessarily direct action. DA is not the bread and butter mission for SF.

[@Rubeless]

Another restart that doesn’t know shit.

[@JJReal-m7x]

🙄 Y’all been yappin for 20+ years now, everyone knows everything about you guys. To say the SEALs are the most skilled is laughable and a flat out lie. Especially white side Team guys. It’s not even close either. He knows he has to be careful hyping the SEALs up because it isn’t true and the veteran community will call him out and he’ll cry again saying that everyone was mean to him. This is the kind of dude who just wanted to be SOF for the title and then got out once he attained it. Met lots of guys like that, they get the title, think they don’t have to do anything else because they “made it” and then they coast off that. They don’t do much, might deploy a couple of times and get out. They’re turds. They don’t volunteer to go to schools, they avoid deployments, their evals are trash, they don’t make progress in their careers and aren’t really about the life. They talk themselves up to civilians and chicks at the bar because they don’t know any better, but veterans know the truth. Then to the public they make it seem like their teammates hate them for no reason, but really it was because everyone else has to pick up your slack. Don’t buy into the hype folks.

[@Rubeless]

[@Jalael]

[@christinafisher6169]

I just don't see the good in treating people in harsh ways to shape them into people who carry guns. There are so many people in the world who are already treated that way in society. Why would you train more people like that and claim it's a good thing?

[@saqu7143]

I guess the heart of your question is - why do we need soldiers? At least that's what I'm hearing. God knows I wish we didn't but you can't fight true evil with talks only. The evil usually wins because good people are standing by, doing nothing. (Not going into the question who is good and evil in any given fighting situation here.) If you need an army as a country you need special forces too. If you need special forces you need to train them to make them special. A normal guy from the street or fresh out of school will not be able to do these extremely hard and neccessary things. But you have that with many things. People go through extrmeme hardships to reach a goal. I actually think there is beauty in the fact that we can do that, as humans.

[@ArizonaGunsDave]

Clearly you've never served. Part of treating people harsh has nothing to do with guns, it's to see if they can mentally break you so you can quit. Those who don't quit generally can handle a situation such as being captured by the enemy as a POW or having to make life or death situations in a small amount of time and making the right decision when called upon. So, treating people harshly allows the instructors to weed out those that can potentially be an issue in a real scenario.
