taught to bathe? What the hell
Biased as fuck. I take it an American made this video.
Sorry, but the British Army infantry training is much more rigorous than show here.
What? Royal Marines are some of the toughest nuts around man
my cock is bigger than your cock
Honestly, I see nothing wrong with being nice to your recruits, I don't see why it's such a big deal to be a complete hard-ass

Well, the old dude in the video said it's to totally deconstruct you, then rebuild you as a hard, emotionless marine. But it does seem a little overboard
Ridiculously biased.

No need to shout at recruits, just make them run up and down the Exmouth river

I know from personal experience that this shit ain't fun, but it works.
Ok then you probably won't mind if we take our marines and go home.
enjoy afghanistan

You don't have the scream a man down to do that.
Because if you don't angrily shout at recruits that must make them pussies.
You would think screaming wouldn't be that affective because it just becomes background noise/tolerated quickly.
Also i would imagine they would lose their voice quite quickly.

Excuse me, did I say this? It's to emotionally bring them down to ground zero. They do it to numb the marines. How the fuck is any soldier supposed to withstand the heat of battle if he can't handle being yelled at by a guy in a stupid hat? If they weren't treated like shit since training then they'd all be breaking down during combat.

There are ways to yell without straining your voice. It's very easy, actually, if you know how to correctly
So i was pretty much right, build up a tolerance of being yelled at.
so americans believe shouting at people makes them tough?

I wasn't even replying to you
Wow fucking fail, the video they used to compare the infantry to was the Royal marine OFFICERS. Thats like comparing the training course for A car dealership owner to that of a salesman.

Don't officers generally undergo an even tougher training regime?

It helps to accustom you to being treated like shit
You know, drill sergeants do more than just yell, are you stupid
[QUOTE=Etcetera;38528238]Don't officers generally undergo an even tougher training regime?[/QUOTE]
They do indeed!
Basic for regular RM Commandos is 32 weeks
Basic for RMC Officers is 62-64
Each of the tests for the officers have a higher requirement compared to their regular counterpart, for example: Regular commando recruits must run 30 miles across Dartmoor in 8 hours, officers must do it in 7 and must navigate on their own.
Yes 'Meriki, we know you can shout the loudest. The cherry-picking of clips is also adorable.

lol the royal marines don't want machines, they want independent thinking fighters. That's what makes them one of the best regiments in the British army.
they took the british army clips from gay porn. "here's how to shower..."... does anyone actually believe that's real?

you are the dumbest person in this thread :v:
Some of the clips showing the Royal Marines were from a shitty, dumbed down TV show where some 'rebellious' twats were shown how 'the military' live.
Needless to say it wasn't even remotely accurate.

I've never understood this desire for thoughless marines. Marines are supposed to be in the upper echelons of the armed forces, what use is it to train them to be a load of machine like men.

Transport to their training ground.
