... for an unspecified gruelling length of time.
Many people are missing the point of the 5v1 setup. It's not to simulate a real 5v1 scenario. It's to test the 1's endurance, fatigue and fighting spirit against what is essentially a fresh opponent continuously. In real life you never know how long a fight might last. Super inspirational, thanks Magnus.
In "real life" you never fight 5 people at the same time - You do your absolute best to get out of the situation.
Any lenght of such a "fight" have to be minimum. That is obvious for ppl who practises BJJ/Boxing or use self defence professionally.
So, the point of this vid is:
You will need top physics as a person to qualify for Norwegian Armed Forces.
I agree this was an endurance test, but real fights don't last long it's not a sport with rules. Eyes, throat, balls, they end rather fast stop throwing punches and eye guage him and it's done.
Yeah, this sort of training is about developing the instinct and the mental strength to fight no matter how tired or hurt or stressed you are. That's really important and (with limited time) it's what militaries focus on teaching. But it's not a shortcut to being an elite fighter (and it shouldn't be sold as or criticised for that) - if the guy in front of you is ready and outclasses you as a fighter, he's still going to flatten you, no matter how aggressive or dirty you try to be. Fighting skill and fighting instinct are complementary; neither supersedes the other.
yall do HIIT workouts and yall gone throw up like this guy
Well ive been in both the Norwegian army and the FFL, and I guess you have done some service aswell from how you accurately understand what the test is mostly about. But that said, after 10 years of working as a bouncer at pubs and nightclubs I know that most fights in «real» life rarely lasts more than 30 seconds. This simply because of intoxication and the majority of people are inexperienced fighters so they rush in and give everything they got and get winded very fast.
Though the few times I really got worried about it getting ugly was when dealing with young known proffesional fighters with something to prove, first in rescuing the idiots trying to fight them. And second not getting knocked out by the pro’s before getting them to the ground and calming them.
Only once I did not catch such a fight early on, and the pro kickboxer killed one of the idiots with a kick to the head and broke the next guy’s face and jaw at multiple places with two punches. The pro went to jail and it ruined his career, the idiot who survived got a important life lesson.
Your endurance is obviously world class. The fighting spirit in you, not being in your element is beyond impressive. I am sure those instructors hope everyone they teach has that same level of mental toughness.
i don't know about world class. high school wrestlers have better endurance than this guy, but he did a good job
@@RobertMJohnson ??😂
@@josh46464 so you’re clearly not an athlete of any significant measure
NOW "GET OUT THERE" & INSPIRE ALL YOUR TABLET/THUMBSTROKE WARRIORS TO MOBILIZE A COUNTEROFFENSIVE AGAINST RUSSIAN ......OH, PLEASE....FUCKING BULLSHIT
"BUT MOMMY SAID I WAS TRANS"
@@RobertMJohnson bro really said a world class climber has worst endurance than a high school wrestler.
Crazy🤓
That looks incredibly tiring. Really impressive. Magnus did pretty well at the striking, his strikes were quick and straight near the start, especially his push kick was really good. Where Magnus struggled was probably the grappling and I think he knew it himself. Know where you shine and excel, know where you struggle and need work. But overall very excellent job Magnus, looks tiring. Very impressive.
His strikes got progressively worse - as they do for everyone - but he did really well with his grappling & knees. He shoulda used elbows instead of hands so much as we can see.
Some basic BJJ would improve that massively tho.
I think they over tired him early with grappling. It's not just lack of skills, grappling is very exhausting even with the skills.
I remember the first time I heared about this test (in some advertising for the norwegian military) and both I and many others attending though "That sounds really hard and painful, but I guess you could end up in a situation where you're 1v5 hostiles in the field" and then the army guys said "No, this is part of the instructor exercises, because you as an instructor might need to defend yourself from your recruits, who might hate you".
HAHAHA
Ahh yes cause in real life 5 people take there time 1 by 1 dwindling somebody vs circling them and beating the shit out of them simultaneously
@@luckymii24 no because in real life you can't win 1v5. At least in real life you can't have prolonged 1v5. If you don't neutralise 1 or 2 enemies immediately or if you are unable to create a 1v1, you are fked
The real strategy in this situation is RLH
Run Like Hell.
Their Human Resources team “🍎 thinks different”
For the safety of Magnus’ opponents we did not allow any chalk for this test!
lmao
Glad to see you and the team kept everyone safe by keeping the chalk away.
Hehe, bra for de 😁
Unfair haha
Ya but the real concern was shirtless Magnus, nobody would have survived him…
Damn bro absolute respect, you went for it. The total grit and determination is absolutely worth commending, it was at a level not just anyone can pull off often conditioned or not.
I'm impressed too. What the instructor said is very true. Looked and was very good. The enemy that wanted to wrestle him down probably had 20-30kg on him and was much larger. Getting out of that is not easy without foul stuff like eye gauges wich clearly you cant do in a test scenario
"You're a tough guy, but you're gonna... you're gonna feel fear." My heart went out to Magnus in this moment
Timestamp?
@@testplmnb 5:30
DID he feel fear?
@Eternal Peace Fear isn't limiting. It can be - but it's also the trigger for all-out fight where the adrenaline takes over and the brain screams "I'll make sure it will cost you to take me out".
@Eternal Peace Unclear what you are disagreeing on. You better make sure you picked up what I wrote.
Most people severely underestimate how draining hard sparring is. You can gas out super quickly. I've seen super-fit guys just absolutely die after a 3min round of BJJ. You use way more energy than you think, and a surprisingly big part of professional fighting is knowing when you can conserve energy.
Only those who've experienced this would know that sparring and techniques are much harder than they look. I can jog 8 mph for 8 minutes before needing a rest, while boxing with someone using 50% effort or higher wipes me out in just 3 minutes.
I have done this ... it is exhausting ... you are amped .. its relentless, and there is no resting its on until you puke
Agree. This is really damn hard. I remember my 1 vs 2's, when I was doing taekwondo black belt egzams for 1 and 2 dan. 1 vs 5 is way more harder.
Yup you can see his energy levels dropping. Any groundwork is especially sapping
@@timmanning5206 the bit at the beginning, kackera you because you have to go full clip or you will fail, so when the first guy comes at you your amped but by the time the 2bd fresh guy is trying to bear hug you to the ground you are runming on pure instincts
For not having any/much martial arts training, this is incredibly impressive, Magnus. In my dojo, individuals would spar against 10-25 other karatekas, and it's brutal. You did great in this.
Do you do kyokushin lol
@@koraegi - Shotokan
Yip kyokushin. But now we incorporate violent take downs etc...truth is in reality you need to be 3 times faster 3 times more violent
a lot of it is bulljitsu like the open hand strikes and grabbing a guys weapon tbh
Thank you Magnus. I’ve really enjoyed your work with the Norwegian military showing us some of the training they endure. I have subscribed because of this series. I admire you for getting in the “ring” with 5 instructors to give and take a beating. It was so intense, I kept forgetting to breathe. My thanks also to the Norwegian military for opening their doors to you.
Also my thanks for opening a new door and an understanding.
That was really impressive. Having done years of martial arts training, I know how difficult it is to keep up such a pace. Not many people can do what you just did.
The aggressiveness tends to taper out after a few rounds. Awesome performance.
Yeah honestly i feel like media doesnt really portray how incredibly strenuous this kinda thing is.
@@kyle3465 definitely, you see lots of films where they just fight 10 people then run 5 miles. I have 0 experience fighting but at one point I was training badminton competitively, we had to run 5 miles then change shoes in 30 seconds then play a badminton match to train endurance. This looks so much harder than that and even for that quite a few people threw up. (Needless to say, while that week made me a better player, I'm never doing it again haha)
@@jjpswfc yea and then in those same movies the untrained civilian kills like 20 trained soldiers like its nothing
@@jjpswfc I fought like 5 times, and 3 times I won because I got rage boost and suddenly "speedblitzed" my opponent, and other 2 times when I lost was when I got exhausted or got defeated by grapling
Instructor: We need volunteers to spar with Magnus
Guy who had pull up record before Magnus: Vengeance is mine
it's incredible how even I tensed up in those grappling situations without even being there. Kudos to you and your massive crown jewels for doing this. You're great and you really did well.
The hand smothering! Oh god. Even in training having your air ways slightly blocked even by an arm or flap of clothing is very panic inducing.
I love how practical this training is for them. He's like, "We kick low because otherwise you would hit their magazine." They really know their stuff.
Well then we will see how good we are when Russia and China come a knocking. Never mind the OPEC Muslim trillionaire Kings already own the Democratic party, therefore has taken control over the USA's military. Which means they can easily send us to the slaughter and the dumbed down sheep were none the wiser. You are all being played by the real global puppet masters who reside in the dark with endless amounts of money at their disposal to impose their will on the fake rulers of all nations they control. We are all just a number and are easily brainwashed, manipulated and controlled. Money is far more important then any military, because Money controls all the world's fake rulers who control and give orders to the sheeple they own. Without oil the military is dead, so keep taking orders from the Muslim Oil Gods and your machines, aircraft, tanks, ships and rockets will have enough fuel to play the role of being the world's police force. He who controls the most oil controls the world and has the money to control the flow of information the sheeple are exposed to in order to manipulate and deceive them into forced actions. You are all being played against one another at the behest and amusement of your real slave Masters. Population control is their biggest priority. So war, death and destruction is a given. So keep putting the majority of your time, resources, manpower and money into the mighty death industry in order to appease your masters.
Even so, kicking should be kept to a minimum for exactly the reasons seen here. Every time he tried it, he propelled himself backwards.
Had he been wearing full kit, and more top-heavy, he would likely have gone to the ground.
@@baldieman64 it's just bad form
@@baldieman64 yeah like Umar said, a properly executed kick shouldn't send u back. The opposite actually, u should put ur weight forward and actually end up stepping forward
@@mihailmilev9909 Try it in boots and body armour. Even a simple teep becomes a chore and speed is impossible.
Feet are for moving about and generating power through torque.
The fact that you were able to disarm that guy properly while being totally exhausted and only having extremely minimal training beforehand is extremely impressive. You're a legend.
I mean, they do go very soft in this test. I have done the test myself, or the former version of it at that exact location. And they're not fighting or resisting very hard. Still incredible exhausting, but not impressive to disarm him like that.
@@asdadfafafafffallslsldd8068 so anybody can take it? Or what was the occasion for you?
@@mihailmilev9909 No, I doubt anyone can take it. This particular test is something the Norwegian kings guard does as part of their hand to hand combat training during the recruit period at Rena. (at least used to do) Maybe the entire Norwegian army does a variation of it , I wouldn't know.
In traditional karate we did similar training but three on one all at the same time. That was incredibly hard.
Some have done 100man kumite as well.
@@Musashev ik in one school we would do this thing where it was still technically 1v1 fights but everyone would just line up and fight with every person in the gym for a min or two then go to the next . And do that for about an hour lol
@@Redbird10 bruh same, I remember how I got destroyed by everyone with good technique💀
@@Magic_Dragon1 I actually did very well , but I also had a lot of previous experience, and just more physical ability in general than my opponents did , so even tho I was younger and smaller it really wasn't all that much of a challenge in most cases.
@@Redbird10 oh
For someone with no martial arts experience that was very impressive, really good spacial awareness, instincts and you were able to keep calm and not panic.
Magnus I love your videos! I’m an instructor for the United States Army at the Northern Warfare Training Center in Alaska. You should come train with us we teach military mountaineering in the summer and arctic operation and survival in the winter!
This is a video series I would watch
I would also watch this video.
That would make a great video
Let's make it happen, that series would do great.
Is there classes or a chance to a sign up for normal civilians? Would love the opportunity.
Unless you have actually done this you don't realise how exhausted you can become. I did milling (boxing with head protection) in the British army as an ultra fit young man and after about 30 intensive seconds I was totally spent. Hats off to this guy.
Yeah man, you could see the fatigue kick in after that first battle.
I'm tired after just watching it. No idea why, when I knew perfectly well it is just an exercise, I was tensing up. Nothing but respect for all involved.
Sooo true!
@@darktoranaga me too.
@bcvbb hyui I'm in the canadian forces right now, and yeah his videos somehow motivate me even more. Him doing the hard challenges is inspiring. That a civilian would do all these things with barely any time and learning. But yeah seeing him fight reminds me of our close combat course, it's so fucking exhausting... 2minutes feels like an hour in term of exhaustion...
Combat against another person is great for working all those muscles you never knew you had. I remember wrestling tournaments where I was in the most average weight class, meaning I was the first fight, and the last fight of the day, and fighting every 30m. It was amazing where you'd feel muscle fatigue the next day, the next, the next. Our whole team would be walking around school like stiff zombies, but never felt so alive. Fast forward a few years, same tournament, the endurance compared to a rookie vs then, night and day difference, and no where near professional I'm sure.
I've watched you for years brother but this episode made me sub. I genuinely appreciate your daring and effort. Outstanding work.
This is the advice I got from my instructor that stuck with me for ever.
It's not how hard you can hit, it's not how much stamina you have.
It's about how much you can take, it's about how fast you can recover.
Magnus did very well, he stayed focused & determined well done.
This is paraphrase of Stallone's classic speech from Rocky Balboa /watch?v=D_Vg4uyYwEk&t
Idk how much one can train to take a beating or recover. I’d say high endurance helps with recover but I don’t think one can train to get concussed less while getting the head beat in
I’d probably be more interested in evasion/ striking /endurance
Stamina seems rather important no.
Allot of people would’ve done well being surrounded by people trying ther best not to hurt u… this is a show and should be treated as such
Sí ...Cierto Es la resistencia o el aguante de una lucha..👍👍👍
Great work Magnus! Wild video 🔥 Let’s get this man to 1M already 💪🏻
Why do you care how many subscribers he has?
Ayyy Brandon!! Huge fan of your channel, man! I do calisthenics as well! :)
Yes
*Subscribes* Because I wasnt even subbed but watch his videos all the time, dont know why :o
M2M? How so?
God, that grappling was tense. I wasn't expecting to react like that but I could barely watch.
I’ve seen people a few years of experience not do as well. I think if you worked on defensive grappling and staying off your back more you could keep up with these guys. What the instructor said about getting your knee down and under you when standing up is super important. Great job!
I love how aware the instructors were- such a great blend of pushing him and catching him off guard, but also being super controlled and so gentle with him. That was really cool to see (and oof, yes exhausting! I practice jiujitsu and disarming, and grappling with one opponent is exhausting enough- but 5, one right after another, after two hours of training cramming- man. I hope the day after he got to sleep the whole day, ha.)
Gentle is right
Exactly. They pushed him to his limits but were controlled enough to not hurt him. It's really impressive.
Was quite gentle I’d say
I'd be like "Front desk. I'm going to miss checkout time tomorrow."
Norway really seems to have a pretty motivated and well organized military, it also seems full with intelligent people, judging from all the video's i saw. Even as small as it is, must suck to face that in a war.
especially since they basically team up with the swedish in case someone invades and then you have to fight a whole lot of pissed of scandinavians...
Norway is a member of NATO. Good luck fighting almost the entirety of Europe as well as Canada and the US.
@@blarfroer8066
USA USA USA!
probably would take Norway our first lol.
They are master-race
Read up on when the Nazi Wehrmacht invaded Norway. It was tiny and poorly equipped force vs a huge and well equipped one. In the end it was still a matter of numbers, though.
HELL YEA!! Well done Magnus! That was not only fun to watch some inside info on some good tips of hand to hand combat fighting and what it takes to defend yourself in a pinch, but entertaining and exciting to watch! Keep the videos coming!
Great job going into an obviously tough scenario. The closest thing I've done to this was during defensive tactics training as a cop, where one exercise was a 1-minute-long, maximum-effort, defending yourself against a skilled instructor in a red suit who comes at you full-on. Just to be clear, I had only the ONE opponent. The whistle blows, and he is on you for 60 full seconds, and you have to fight for your life. I was in my late-20s, in decent shape, and I was already completely fatigued less than halfway in. I learned that 90% of people in good shape have no hope of successfully expending that amount of energy for that long. Flat-out embarrassing is what it was, lol. I'm no expert but I think you did pretty well. =)
Massive respect! Being attacked - even just in training - is scary. Being kicked, beaten and choked is very uncommon in most people's lives and experiencing it and not being stunned by it takes a tough body and mind. I hope you continue this series. It's a lot of fun watching you, and giving insight into such an environment!
Meth heads taking out ten cops at once with no training
Being in the Marine Corps and doing the different types of hand to hand combat from 1999-2015 was quite interesting in so many different countries I went to
@@SpaceRanger187 well yeah, that's the meth lol
When i grew up this shit was pretty common at school and out of school, almost every day.
Never been drunk huh?
Imagine how well Magnus would have done if he took his t-shirt off.
T shirt off and chalk? Unstoppable
YT comments💀
True! He could blind his attackers with his pasty skin.
Lol
And if he had his chalk! He would've been even better!
I admire your courage, this even had me stressed out and I was watching in my pj's
😂
Insane. Well done Magnus and to the instructors/participants as well.
I've been through this training twice in the American Air Force (first time I got knocked out/concussion), so I know just how hard it is. Respect to you dude, you put your all onto it.
Combatives?
Airforce 😂
@@gannard4126 Yeah lol
Where can I do this training!
@@chadigholam enlist in the US Air Force and they'll make it happen
Dude you actually did AMAZING! Ive been in various martial arts throughout my entire life and your ability to at least maintain some form you JUST learned 2 hours ago, after being exhausted like that is super impressive. Liked and subscribed just for the amazing job you did!
I wonder if Magnu’s stamina has been largely improved by climbing?
@@catman2430 Of course. He’s a world-class athlete, I don’t doubt he’s done a fair share of endurance training.
Yeah, really good effort mate👍🏻
@@rubenleejohnsen2037 imagine how strong his arms are, damn he did good
Especially given what the training was, it didn't seem explained well at all even despite the teachers form being perfect other than the palm strikes but he said the spoke in Norwegian though so maybe he got more correct instructions off cam
I'm shocked there was no mention of throwing people off balance from a clinch or grab, maybe they were worried he would focus on that and leave himself vulnerable trying?
Iuno, I just kinda know (knew) martial arts n Bas is my fave so palm strikes got me all hyped
Stress test was absolutely awesome 5 minutes heart and determination ❤ as many people posted with more training you would be unstoppable
Your endurance is already next level
"Some of my best videos have come from bad ideas"... That is the moment I hit the subscribe button.
I could seriously feel my energy draining just by watching him fight. Dude is a beast for not giving up
I speak from experience when I tell you that 2 on one at 100% for just 60 secs is incredibly difficult. I would not have passed my defensive exam if I had to endure 5. Nice work Magnus.
Dude needs to use some butterfly guard to stop that dude from mounting. He could possibly sweep the guy and end up on top and get some rest. 🤷🏼♂️
@@CDs_RUclips_bro it's his first day, he obv ain't gonna pull out some bjj hahaha
@@norsendo6532 Bro it takes two minutes to learn the basics of butterfly guard.
@@SnailHatan mf did it look like he was taught that beforehand?
I once beat off 6 hard guys, I can’t fight for shit though.
First time ever seeing your channel! Mad respect man, freaking awesome!!! Thank you
I felt that lactic acid building up… no wonder you threw up at the end.
And AMAZING endurance 👊🏼😎
Kudos brother. (Coming from martial arts, I felt that 😂😂)
Great video, dude. I've never seen you so exhausted that you looked like you were giving up but there were moments you were on the ground and I could see you had *nothing* left. Then you got up and started smacking the pad again, unreal. Massive respect for going through it, you gave it everything 👏
It's wicked to see the drive Magnus has. I am not surprised though because top athletes HAVE to have this drive to win, climb better, climb higher etc etc. I love seeing ppl push themselves in unusual and uncomfortable physical ways.
As stated above his will power and drive to keep going were top notch !
As an MMA coach and climber, I have to say I love your channel. This video gave me such respect for you. Feel free to come and train in Scotland. I have a gym full of killers and some of the best and most famous climbs in the world right here. You would be really welcome. Although we speak English, we would need subtitles for any videos for other English speakers to understand us.
Just watched this. That was a brilliant effort.
Growing up I had 3 older brothers who were also bigger than I was, so when I started Martial Arts at age 13 my dad said that if your sure you wanna do this then I'll help you. From that day on and for the next Literal 5yrs I trained everyday with both my brother's in a 2v1, I asked my dad one day lol why do I always have to train against both of them for? You don't make them do that! He said because they're job is to look out for you when I'm not around and our job is to make sure you can handle something or someone on your own, god forbid, if none of us are around. He said this is all about your conditioning and mental capacity for simulating fighting, you never know how tough your enemy is going to be and that's partly why I'm so tough on you. Awesome video I loved this one as it brought back some memories for me, thanks for that, sorry it's long
The smothering of the face and pretend threats muttered to Magnus while on the ground really made me anxious for him. To me, that was the most "real" aspect of this combat test and something Ive never seen before in sparring. I could see how in the moment it could actually make you feel scared they might kill you when you're winded, stressed, and fighting on your back.
lol
😆 covering smothering of one's face and finger locks/ ankle locks were my favorite little aspects in many and combative just jitsu when I trained with local pd and county sherrifs . They didn't like it lol
U gave it everything, Magnus. Imagine being in this situation in real life. The adrenaline I felt from just watching the fight was crazy. Good fight, Magnus.
If you are ever put into a situation where you have to fight 5 guys, just run away.
Hahahahhahahahahahhahaha
Same, I was duckin' and weavin' in my chair (look in reality I'd get absolutely beat to shit and if I won, I'd look more like a corpse than actual corpses, but I felt the energy).
Then you just pull the trigger until the threat stops haha...... But no joke I have problems watching shit like this lol. Me seating on my couch squirming at 1AM like I'm the guy fighting those guys🤣 Guess after years of wrestling and boxing it just becomes natural to try and move for him especially when I see the ground game😂
@@bubbahotep8892 one had an "ar15" and he was literally instructed not to run from automatic rifles for a reason ahahah
Well done Magnus! To go head to head against the best of the best in an unfamiliar endeavor with minimal training takes guts and heart! You did exceptionally well.
You did amazing, i really enjoyed it. Thank you for this video
Magnus' endurance is definitely impressive. Having trained both grappling and striking, it's easy to spot beginner mistakes, but I also know how tired anyone would be after something like that. The lack of experience in fighting also makes it worse because you don't know when to pace yourself and breathe.
Yup.most forget to breathe
No matter how fit you are, grappling first classes are pretty much death in the first minutes. Very good endurance by Magnus.
I love how humorous and humble Norwegian elite fighters are.
The polar opposite of the typical loud boisterous street thug who tries to use his bluster to intimidate people, hoping they won't call his bluff.
Much respect Magnus. You are awesome!! True athlete. Anyone who had ever fought knows that 2 minutes of constant action is draining. You did 5 minutes of high adrenaline action. I’m surprised you only threw up. Good lord man!!! Awesome!!
Absolute brilliant video, really enjoyed watching the combat techniques used 👍
What is enjoyable about your suffering is the honesty of it, and the empathy I feel as someone who asked "what's the bucket for?" in my first boxing class...
Yeah, the thing I noticed, and it happened to me during long bouts in the ring, is that when he got tired he lost the snap in his "punches" and was basically push his hands out. Pro fighters may do this in the latter rounds of a long fight.
@@locutusdborg126 Yup boxed for a few years myself an it would be absolutely exhausting in late rounds. You're thinking to yourself damn I think somebody filled my gloves with concrete towards the end hahaha. It's impressive to watch pro athletes in sports that you've done and people who never got into the sports themselves doesn't quite understand how good of shape those athletes are in. It always looks alot easier from the sidelines haha
As an old school, past his prime (and sadly overweight) brawler and Veteran, I learned 2 things;
1. Your small size was a huge disadvantage with multiple attackers.
2. Your fitness level was amazing and yet I could see you getting gased fairly quickly.
The lesson I took was I better get in the gym pronto, if I want to stand a chance against 2 people like I did in yester year.
All of my size and strength (183 cm and 129kg) doesn't mean crap if I'm so exhausted I can't breathe.
Good video and great effort.
being much bigger and stronger (if say you have trained for strength and size but have shit cardio) you always stand a good chance of knocking someone out with the first few punches but then on the off chance you don't you find yourself in very deep water very fast whilst your opponent/s are barely warming up which is a real scary feeling when can feel your self already oxygen depleted
Lose weight! Smaller people live longer (their hearts have less load). Adopt a vegan diet, and pounds vanish.
You did very very well all things considered, Magnus. Ive trained for years and I think you have a very natural talent to hand to hand combat.
good video!
This whole thing was just breathtakingly awesome, hats off to you, Sir!
Lot of respect, man. This was a bloody damn hard test and you did really well for someone "out of the street". They have been training for this for years while your training has a totally different aim. Your great endurance and physique showed here. Great job.
Какой это был тест 🤣🤣🤣 у нас так школьники в туалетах дерутся. Клоуны НАТО🤣🤣🤣
He should be greatly commended for his endurance and form and to keep those till the end... but they were going easy on him. They were in no way actually trying to defeat him. He would have died quickly.
@@austin3789 Well, yeah. They can't necessarily do that with each other, either. If they kill all their partners during training, then the training is useless if you can't wake up the next day to do it again.
I've got around a decade of martial arts experience (mainly muay thai) and I gotta say props to Andreas and Magnus! Incredible teaching, and incredible learning. That might be the quickest I've ever seen someone pick up on the basics of striking.
Funny to see this. My main sport group always had been martial arts. (Sinse is an nine) only very recently got into climbing. And now I am watching a climber fight his ass of. Perfect circle xp
Well Magnus has always said he wanted to learn a martial art ! Cannot get more martial than fighting five guys from the military 😀
@@mignonhagemeijer3726 Same for me. Gotta say Magnus's kicking is pretty good for a beginner
I agree. Really impressive. His body control and athleticism that he has from decades of training really show. Some would say it's talent, but I've always thought that calling stuff like that talent is dismissive of all the hard work being "talented" requires. There's very little talent in the world that isn't the result of hard work. Real talent is to find out what you want or like and putting in the max effort.
As a mixed martial artist myself, I have to agree. Really impressive especially the under standing and focus on gaurds and keeping himself out of bad situations..
I know this feeling. Salute to U! Great job!
Good job!!! So proud. Glad you tried this out!
If pounced by five capable adversaries, 'running away' is sound advice.
When you're on the ground, you can't run away. Therefore: don't get on the ground.
That's one reason the army guys went for the eyes: You can't hit what you can't see and you can't run if you don't know where you are running to. So blind your opponent.
Hats off to the army guys, they're scarily competent.
I was surprised they didn't go for the throat. I do judo and all I could see where ways to strangle Markus hahahahah.
But hats off, extremely well fought.
@@carlosperezdelema they don't want to submit you, they want to exhaust you and let you gain some experience
@@tearsien they want you to give up. I'm pretty sure giving up is the main way to fail this test. I think the moment we saw Magnus punching instead of palm striking was the moment this became all about Magnus' willpower. Much respect to Magnus for not just giving up when they took him to deep water.
@@tearsien that's true, but you don't need to choke him out just enough for him to start protecting his throat. The only explanation I could think of is that it is somehow very well protected when in gear.
@@Org80 I guess. It was just surprising for me that they don't drill for it.
After watching years of MMA, I was thinking "There's no way this is all one cut, he doesn't even look tired!" Then he goes outside and throws up for five minutes, lol. Okay, he was just really determined and really good at hiding his exhaustion.
And for me he looked tired after the half. Perhaps because I felt him so much 😅
Those tests ain’t no joke. I’ve done some over the years. I’m up for my next one…
Vomiting is a side effect of adrenaline. Which is dangerous indicator of exhaustion.
Just discovered your channel today Magnus and have watched six vids - great channel!
Really respect to you to challenge this one Magnus, you put on a good fight there! I also strongly believe you also learn something about street brawling survival. The instructor is also very good to teach you, break falls and practical tactics in close quarter combat.
We don't enjoy seeing you suffer, we enjoy seeing the amount of effort you put into your work. It is that which inspires people, Magnus 😄
I don't enjoy seeing people suffer, but the mad endurance and tenacity deserves a like from anyone who watches this. Mad respect.
Love seeing the will in you. Much respect.
EXTREMELY COOL, please do more like this.
Norwegian Special Forces seem like some extremely tough guys. The calm discipline behind that kind of lethality is quite something.
Not to take away from how brutal the exercises are, but just to clarify. These guys are not special forces, they are professional solders from the Telemark Battalion (TMBN). A mechanised infantry battalion with alot of international experience.
These military videos are simply awesome, please make more of them! I really appreciate all the hard work you put into these!
They are done really well. Very inormative and im not looking at a boasting american.
It was awesome, Magnus, proud of you doing it and so well aswell! Keep up the good work, challenge yourself further & become the best version of yourself :*
So much respect for this young man. Incredible his fighting spirit and endurance. Awesome!👍🙂
For just a couple hours of prep time, he did a good job against professional soldiers with years of training and conditioning. He should be proud.
One thing I've learned from some training in kickboxing and then later jiu jitsu is, you can push yourself pretty hard, but you can never push yourself as hard as someone else can. You learn some things about yourself when you're dead tired, get stuck in knee on belly and can't breathe, and there's no timed rounds. Good vid!
It’s such a unique exhaustion
truer words are seldom spoken
Yeah what people fail to understand is that there's no "exercise" you can do to train for this other than doing it.
Respect! That was very well done. You did so great man!!
New subscriber here. I am very impressed with your videos. You're very talented physically, but what I am most impressed with is your modesty and humble approach to your endeavors. You really performed well (greatly) in this challenge and I suspect your instructors were very impressed with you. You undersold yourself due to humility and respect but in the end your mettle was clearly displayed. I think you're a strong man physically and a man of strong character. Very enjoyable and educational, thank you.
I did Kyokushin for almost 10 years, and as part of the program we practiced Randori, or fighting multiple opponents. The stage for which these lessons are set is a typical dojo mat with three uke. The purpose wasn't to defeat all three uke, but to stay on your feet. Sometimes they came in one by one, other times it was more than one, and at no point in time was it easy. I couldn't imagine fighting five, well trained fighters, on my own.
I think in such scenarios, the better opportunity to take, if you think you are really up for it, is to literally bring them into the fight. Bystanders, waiting for their turn, aren't great fighters, or the master is waiting to put them into the fight. Point: Use their status as a weakness, and as you do, place them in a position where they are startled and need to be reactionary in defense, rather than them being in offense when the sensei decides to bring them in.
"An enemy undefined could be very well be an enemy, nonetheless."
"Be proactive rather reactive."
Just an idea.
I remember for my Shodan I had to remain on my feet for one hour
If I recall correctly, 1.Kyu was 45 min
In Goju Ryu, as a black belt exam, you have a 10-man kumite, a very endurance demanding exercise. And they go hard.
Quick clarification, Randori doesn't mean multiple opponents. It just means sparring or live training.
I want to see a professional do it!
I'm a Vietnam Marine combat veteran and I've done counter terrorism specializing in hostage rescue.
Your fight brought back memories of real hand to hand combat. I was tired/exhausted and scared, life had no meaning only death was a reality. Mike
I hope you are a lot better now.
@@ausar3105 I was doing hostage rescue up until 3 years ago, now I'm too old and slow. Looking to get comfortable. Lol Mike
That´s amazing, real life is harder than any training. Did the training help you to survive ? It takes a real man to do what you did.
@@hb-ol9oc to most people I believe training helps build confidence and strength.
A boxer trains days, weeks, months, for a 15 minute fight.
The important question is how to build up your spirit to do the impossible when called upon? Mike
No wonder you value NoStress.
1 minute of that would have finished me. Amazing how you were able to carry on. Well Done.
I love how understated Lødøen is at the start there with just a, "yeah, you're going to be really tired."
It's on the level of, "Fire? Yeah, it's pretty warm".
"otherwise i get my ass kicked' , no magnus.. you will get your ass kicked, thats what the test is designed for
Lift heal and twist hip 2:46
Hook slap 2:51

Combination 6:20
Low Kicking 6:32
Push kick 6:41
Elbows 6:54

Sparring 15:41
I felt really anxious and somehow claustrophobic by just watching that endless round of sparring, so tough, respect to magnus
I really like these videos about learning how different people fight and train to fight
Maximum respect to this man. Magnus you did it very well and gave us important fight lessons, thanks to the Norwegian Army as well. You guys rock!
I would really like to hear a little bit more how this experience was for Magnus and how he felt during the fight
Yeah I thought they might have filmed a recap a couple hours after the fact, when he wasn't dead
I wrestle greco myself so i can give you an idea. Gassing out during full contact combat with another adult almost feels like youre drowning, as if your heart is always 5 beats behind and your lungs cant catch up
@@cmap1503 Yep, back when I did sombo we did exhaustion training that was like this in the sense there was multiple vectors, getting jumped during attack, etc. Nothing in my life ever gassed me like that. I felt like I had 400lbs of weight on my chest just trying to breathe.
My hats off to you. I used to wrestle and when I would get into the 30 seconds or even in a minute grapple it felt like an eternity. Good job. There's no way I could it now.
I almost coulden't go on watching you suffer so hard... i made martial arts for 14 years and saw that you had so hard time with the takedowns. Man my muscles were so cramped!! Respect for you to really finish that challange!! Greets from germany😬👋
Same!! So tense
Yes was difficult to watch a RUclips "friend" in the takedowns
I was the same.
I can have a relaxing time watching pros fight, but I was really intensely absorbed into imagining what he must be going through.
Very impressed that he stayed in the moment the whole time and didn't let himself get into sensory overload or give up, this seemed to be the main objective of the opponents to seek out.
@@Dug6666666 yes it's what they look for in your first test to gain your white belt properly in the Ju-Jitsu I did.
Respect! You willingly put yourself into extreme physical and psychological discomfort and gave a fight. It's clearly visible when you start fighting for breath and start hitting with clutched fists instead of open palm
I remember doing this in the military. We didn't fight 5 Bobs, but we had to subdue one with a baton.
Those kicks are really powerful.
Damn great team work all the way fucking around man!!! MAD RESPECT FOR ALL PARTIES
You have such an amazing endurance and also incredibly fast learner, my utmost respect to you and also to the Norwegian Army. Your videos gave me the motivasion to push myself harder in training.. Greetings from Singapore .
His form and the pressure of the punches were a lot nicer in the other day!
You can tell Magnus got into pure fight or flight adrenaline. He starts open palm punches but near the end reverts to instinct with closed fists. Mad respect and like everyone else fantastic job! Wojld love a followup thoughts video
At the end he is throwing up because his blood sugar is out of balance, this has happened to me several times throughout my life when I worked out excessively. It took going to an elite body builder trainer to figure it out 20:26
Instructors of the instructors😮
Excellent job 👍👏👏👏
Magnus Meatball is the coolest person ever
Magnets
I train and fight in Muay Thai. This video randomly popped up and I'm glad I watched. You did surprisingly well, like they said and didn't look too tired. Covered it up well. Congrats you got some serious grit man, well done.
Yeah, I found it cool that the training was basically open palm Muay Thai
