      These are the professional units, so they don't just get conscripts by default like the rest of the normal millitary units in Norway, but have to get volunteers of sufficient motivation and fitness level to sign up. So to the military this is advertisement to appeal to those people to volunteer. That is why they let Magnus do this, because it is free advertisement for them. Really they should pay Magnus for the ad content just like any other advertisement agency, but i guess Magnus gets enough money from the RUclips exposure to make it worth while any way.

      Reason why SWAT and special forces units hold hands on each other's shoulders when entering rooms is precisely this. Your brain's natural instinct is to back out from danger, but in order to neutralize it you really have to make a quick and overwhelming entry. So someone literally has to push you in to danger when your natural instincts tell you otherwise.

    I have so much respect for Magnus. It's still insane how well trained the men are. There was a clear difference between how Magnus operates and how they operate. in 19:30 everyone but Magnus used their barrel-grip hand to open the door in order to keep a finger near the trigger 24/7. Their speed was also immensely superior compared to Magnus, but needless to say he did really well for a newbie/novice just as the rest of the squad claimed.

  • @Skyflairl2p
    @Skyflairl2p 8 месяцев назад +707

    What I respect about magnus is how seriously he takes all of these situations, its also likely one of the big reasons they allow him to participate. Most youtube content creators always try to make things like these seem "fun", laughing and giggling in every scenario. Im talking mostly about the training scenarios, he's attentive and fully engaged in the topic. Also I'm not saying its bad to laugh sometimes, or to have fun. But constantly doing it is just a sign of immaturity. Magnus is there like he is being recruited, its a lot more of a showcase of what goes on in the coastal ranger commando and less of a content-oriented "fun" trip to a normally serious profession.
    And I love that.

    • @WaechterDerNacht
      @WaechterDerNacht 8 месяцев назад +29

      I was a seargeant in the swiss army, which is a militia. When we did things with scenarios, we could see that it is very personality dependent if someone can get into the head space and take it serious or if someone just can't do that.
      Large part to that is also how it looks. If someone has to play through a scenario looking at a cardboard on a stick, it's way harder to do that instead of doing it with either clothed dummies or even in two teams, blanks and gear that tells you if you're hit or not.
      Same for firefighting exercises: if you can just make a room dark and fill it with disco smoke it makes a huge difference to putting a sign on the door frame so you see what should be inside when entering.

Now I wonder who filmed you and how everything went, like a behind the scenes or introducing the people.

      While the Scandinavian education system is really good and progressive, this probably has a lot to do with Norway being part of NATO as well. Especially as specialized forces, you do need to be fit in English. English is used for all international communication, on exercises and maneuvers. And on real missions as well, obviously.

    • @HansenFT
      @HansenFT 8 месяцев назад +1

      @@Nitidus not really. Non-military speak about the same level as seen in this video here. Might be different with some older people, though. The amount of nato exercises the average soldiers experience wouldn't be enough to make a huge difference. Germans and French are nato also, and the population there is far worse at speaking English. Has a lot to do with how few people speak norwegian, same with Danish and Dutch et.

    There's a reason why the UK Royal Marines and Special Forces are trained in Norway with/by the Norwegian Forces: they're some of the best in the world, and the environment is one of the harshest and toughest! It was great to see that they seem to employ Mixed Martial Arts (boxing, jiu jitsu, etc) in their hand-to-hand combat training, and I feel this is absolutely necessary.
    I loved that the dog had little "socks" or "boots" on his feet lol, though I imagine this is a safety precaution. Dogs are certainly a man's best friend, but I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of their duty! lol
    Thank you Magnus for giving us an insight into the Norwegian Coastal Ranger Commandos, and thank you to them for allowing this to happen! These dudes are amazing, and I'd love to see more!
