And you have to consider that they are doing this during summer, when it’s not really that cold. Doing this during the winter is a whole other beast, these guys are super tough.
cold weather is your guys strong point, they've got the serbians who just operate in constant arctic weather almost
@@NonsensicalSpudzCold weather maybe, but Serbia is quite far away from the arctic haha.
There is to parts to Winter that is bad, one is when it is super cold and frost, the second is during the high-time of thaw, you be sinking into wet snow everywhere, everything is lose, rivers and small ponds everywhere.
@@NonsensicalSpudz you are thinking of siberia, not serbia i guess. siberia is north east in russia and some parts goes further north than what norway do.
@@jbcool thats it lol
The fitness test coming after this video is awesome. And when he challenges the Telemark Battalion.
Norway is a really special place, they have stupid amount of money, and it hasent corrupted them. (thats why the nice kit) Stuning nature/landscapes/fjords/..... For the most part awesome calm and collected smart people with empathy. This coming from a Finnish dude, i wish i could live there few years at somepoint.
Right back at you👍🏻
Hasn`t corrupted us? If u only knew haha.
@@abccba2344 Maybe it just seems so to outsider. My country Finland according to various stats is one of the least corrupt nations in the world, that's total BS. We just do the the corruption sort of inbred way in or behind the sauna :)
Norway is a special place but ice cream that cost 7 euros, and 10 euros just for gas what the hell man
@@Chris09978 Fuel is around 1,5-1,7 euros, but they're talking about going up to 2,5 per liter
Very cool. Greatings from Italy to Norway. Our Alpini mountain troops are training for decades now within the AMF together in Norway. Very special country and nice people! 👍🏻🇮🇹🇧🇻❤️
You say Midtbø very good 👏👏
"really solid rock climber" is an understatement.
One of the 10 best sport climbers in the world. Only Ondra & Megos substantially stronger.
Yeah, kinda more impressive that he's still climbing 9a's and higher, without being sponsored as a pro climber. Wish he would do more crack climbing, it's a confidence booster to see someone his level struggle with his anti-style of climbing
While magnus is an absolute beast, I think that this is an overstatement on your part
The weather was perfect and warm. Imagine doing this in midwinter or heavy cold rain. 😬
Every weather have it pros and cons especially in the military operations.. they were like sitting ducs because visibility was so good and terrain was not good 🙂.
@@croci81 it's great for selection, but doesn't teach you what to expect from the shitfest at basic lol
Yea just thinking about those normal harsh winter storms.
Did that hike 20 years ago. We stopped just before the glacier. The brigade general mayor had gone up there in advance to greet us with food and drink. Epic guy.
Your Ø is not bad my friend.
I second that. Not quite as a Norwegian would say it, but overall I think it was quite good 🙂
We're happy to have you guys by our side. To protect our north. /Sweden
And we're happy for your steady deliveries of Carl Gustaf recoilless rifle! Välfärd!
I wouldn't protect Sweden, as a Norwegian.
Swedes didn't protect Norway during WWII, you just let Nazi Germany walk right through and into Norway to occupy us.
Shame on you, Sweden.
cameraman just ran past them to get a good shot, cameramen are immortals.
Considering Magnus is already in great shape and he’s struggling! Goes to show how tough it is!
Yes, considering Magnus is already in great shape and he’s struggling, what?
I don't understand why children are so bad at typing full, comprehensive sentences.
Check out the follow up vids too. Especially the fitness test - really puts it to perspective how fit these guys are. Doing a 35hr mission and taking a fitness test within few days (or was it just the next day)...total beasts. Respect from Finland💪🏻🙏🏻
the day after
Wow, a video where Magnus didn't take his top off! :)
He posted one on Monday where he climbed with these guys in their gym and did take his shirt off 😂 beasts all of them 💪💪💪💪
The Norwegian Ø-vocal is pronounced similar to the [ʌ]-sound in judge [dʒʌdʒ]; you were pretty much spot on :)
If you say "bought" you say å, båt. (phonetically it's the same as the Norwegian word for boat, båt)
If you say "cow" you say æ, cææw.
If you say "plural" you say ø, pløral.
:D
@@OriginalPuro I thought it was khow
I woud claim that the vocal sound iin ´burn, firm or turn " is slightly more simular to the Norwegian Ø. Mostly because the vocal sound in "judge" is extremely short.
your "Ø" was the best american Ø I've heard
Awesome video, really enjoy your breakdown and personal input to certain situations.
Magnus is a legend for even trying this challenge
That was just awesome! Literally elite troops, respect 💪
Respect... 5.5 Stone vertically, the Norwegians are a tough bunch!
I've thought about joining Canadian armed forces in long-range recon, and this was very helpful to get an idea of what it's like in long-range recon.
Was cool to see the perspective of someone from a different military group on this. Magnus has done a few other cool military videos including a hand to hand combat one and it'd be really interesting to see your take on it.
During my time in the german army, my worst memory is that one three-day training mission with half a meter of fresh snow and -15°C at day and -25°C at night. The goal was - you get dropped of at an unknown location roughly 80km away and had to find your way back to the barracks without being seen. When our group returned, we learned that only the first three groups were dropped of and the rest was recalled due to the sudden drop in temperature and got to do indoor maintainance instead. I lost 6kg on that trip.
The production value of this video is just CRAZY good. Insane!
The pizza were not delivered due to enemy contact for the pizza delivery guy.
He carried 35 kg with pizza.
@17:30 those binoculars are insane. Just roughly 40k dollars and they can be yours
He's just made a video of him trying to join the Norwegian marine rangers
These guys are super tough and their endurace is on another level
Respect where it's due. Extremely tough guys. Hats off. Ex British Army
Your pronunciation of "Ø" is pretty good! The only thing lacking in your pronunciation of "Midtbø" is the "T" sound. Pronounce the first syllable as "mitt" and you're golden!
15:38 that shot with the music choice is just a theatric masterpiece
Loved this reaction, really fascinating and the visuals of Norway's High North are incredible.
Doing the same exercise in December is ten times as tough. Terribly cold, strong winds, snowstorms and dark, no daylight. A lost glove, mittens and you get serious frostbite on your hand.
What is the Military advantage in operating a ground small unit of soldier in a cold environment i assume in enemy territory
@@WhiteGirlHeaventhey're a recon unit so they go in. Spot/recover etc. Can be very useful
@@loganholmes2991 i totally agree, and will do more research into cold weather warfare.
Ah...love to see this, I'm an old "Oppklesk'er" myself, the forefather of this unit, love to see this. I remember this terrain, recognize the places, so beautiful!
Puny guns though...should have had the old '3 (AG3) ;-)
Seriously though, impressed and proud! Good men!
Cool stuff getting an actual armed forces react to this. Didn't need that to know that it was an incredible feat, but good thing to know that it's also authentic.
Check out the fitness test they did the day after. That treadmill test is fucking inhumane! Even is a BEAST for lasting 30 minutes on that thing. Holy shit!
I'd love to see you react on the video where he did some tests with the same military guys
The one thing I remember from my time serving in the Army during winter time, here in Norway. Is Murphy's Law. All day, every day. Murphy's Law.
"this is a nice typocraphical map, because you can see heres a hill, heres a hill, heres is a hill"... these are not hills, these are mountains above 3000ft, the first one you pointed out is 3159ft/963m (the lowest of them). and the highest of them are 4527ft 1380. And the one they are climbing are 4885ft or 1489m... These guys are extreme...
Vilket berg är dom på? Ser ut som en jäkligt fin kamvandring!
@@Wiigert Istind i Troms og Finnmark. Litt sør for Tromsø, ligger I Bardufoss/Setermoen området
18:22 This what the soldier was using, and The name of it is called STALKER.
STALKER
DISMOUNTED SOLDIER SYSTEMS
RECONNAISSANCE, SURVEILLANCE AND TARGETING SYSTEMS
STALKER is a lightweight, handheld, day/night target acquisition, surveillance and reconnaissance device that is capable of locating targets even in adverse weather conditions. It is extremely lightweight and has an intuitive user-friendly interface. It is reliable in all weather conditions and allows operators unprecedented situational awareness for a variety of missions. It also has outstanding C4I (command, control, communication, computers and intelligence) capabilities, along with multiple interfaces including RS-232 and USB for data exchange with other devices.
STALKER is a similar device to the MOSKITO TI but has an integrated SAASM (Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module) GPS.
You did the Ø perfectly. Really good!
Operation Meatballs is a dig at Magnus's name. Midtbø sounds like meatball, so his friends call him meatball.
I'm having a hard time connecting those... Meatballs in brown sauce is a staple dinner dish here in Norway, though. So it suggests that this trip is pretty standard. Except it's really exhausting for those untrained for it.
His friend Anton Fomenko (Russian living in the US) gave him that name during a vlog collab and it has stuck on him ever since.
You need to do a video about The fitness test he does with these guys! Love The content man thx
Mitbo got on a women's world cup competition ice climbing route, and did it straight up with only a few hours training with ice axes. He's a climbing beast and would be well solid in any alpine/mountain territory.
You mentioned that the boots look good.
Depending on the time of year the gear changes of course, but the normal ones range from between 450-700 USD a pair.
Some of the extreme temp ones a lot more, so it's not the avg. cheap military boots.
As for the experience, I don't think anyone ever forgets the first time they hear shots during an exercise and it's always after you've been completely drained for energy, long night patrols or something like that. No matter how tired you are, if you have the training these guys do. Then your energy level means absolutely nothing, the second the first bullet rings, your battery is supercharged and all your senses just go through the roof. I don't know how to explain it, but it feels like someone else is controlling your body in that exact moment and the second it's over, it's like you've been turned off, as in. someone just hit the off switch and you just want to crumble into a little pile on the floor.
10/10 would still do it again though.
Not sure if its do-able as a reaction. But there's a couple of good interviews on Chris thrall's channel that you maybe interested in. The Interview with the Ex CO of 45 Commando Major Andy Shaw is awesome and the James o' Connell (3 Para) interview is a real eye opener as to the events on Mount Longdon in the Falklands. Chris starts the Conversations slowly but they really gain intense momentum. Thumbs up on your channel, you've become really good at pausing and not pausing and adding info. Good one!
Check out when he does our army’s hand to hand combat instructor test. It’s sick
The winter up there is not just cold, but dark as well. But the view and the nature experiences are awesome, you realy get to see the northern light in a whole new way when you are in that enviroment.
Give us a visit between January and February. That's when you have the coldest temps and the least amount of cloudy weather, so it gives you the best chance of spotting the Aurora. It's visible through-out the dark months from about October to March, but there's usually a lot of overcast weather during most of those months too, so Jan / Feb are the best months to visit if that's what you want to see.
@@kebman Joda, jeg var der å testa det. Oppleves best langt ute i fjellheimen ;)
Cold an wind is an real hazzard, had some basic training in sub artic warfare in sweden. We lived outside in tents for almost two weeks in - 25 celcius (-13F)
Man this looks amazing to do, but challenging as hell
Actually Hell is not that challenging, I've been there
The mountains are not really all that high, as stated around 1000m to 1500m above the sea. So realistically not a problem with low O2.
How ever, the vert they go through is really high. The fjords you see in the left of the map are at sealevel (d'oh, they are the sea) And the valley bases are often at 100 to 300m above sealevel. Sure, some roads lead up higher, but I recall the treeline is at around 500 to 600m or so. Since the started in the trees, they are actually climbing ~900m of vert or so. Part of it in technical scrambling terrain, with a heavy load... it's quite brutal.
Cameraman? There is no cameraman. This isnt a TV show with a production. Its just one of the guys pointing an action cam at them. And they have a drone. Which they would pack anyway.
Another great reaction video :)
"Man that looks like a nightmare." Pretty much all of Norway. ^^ But honestly, once you get up there (and you don't have to carry a 77 pound pack) then it's so refreshing and liberating to just keep walking or skiing.
There are 2 follow up videos that are also good. 😊
Eric the Beast 💪💪💪💪
Binocular these dudes are using is called "Moskito TI", super-cool gadget! had my hands on one of them! costs around 40000 Euros
What does cooled high resolution thermal imager mean in layman's terms?
You'd be surprised how quickly you lose the heat once you're on the ridge with wind hitting you. Makes you regret that you'd started sweating
Great commentary, love the Estonian flag behind you. My motherland ;)
That was wicked awesome!!!
I would love if you reacted to the video Magnus released right after thisone, you get to see more of those guys. The guy named Even, is built like a greek statue, just, damn.
He told at 8:35 that he takes 35 kg (77 pounds), a bit more then the 50 pounds mentioned before
I lived in Setermoen, and I where also in the support unit to the Long Ranger Recon unit. They have evolved for sure, not sure I buy the 1% though, when I was there probably around 10% made it. Fun fact. A guy in the LRR unit was home at leave and went for a run. He was thinking to himselfe that he had a really good pase. All the sudden he got passed by a dud with a tire tied to him. The dud was in the Marine Special Operations. He stopped and walked home. :p
Your pronunciation of "Midtbø" is correct. The first part of his name is pronounced "Mitt" and the "bø" is as you said. The sound Ø is like uhh as in her or slur.
When pronoucing the Norwegian Ø you should think french. Like the ending in Chaff-eur or liq-ueur. English nerve is close in the middle n--er--ve.
@@taffelost6221 i allways think of Ø as in the U in BUCK. and then MIDT as in MITTEN (MittenBuck - "en+ck" = "MittBu")
Edited and improved comment hopefully
Meatball?
@@benwhiley9680 Good one ;) I'm going to leave Kjøttbolle for someone else to phoneticize. Took me years to learn how to pronounce that. English is my mother tongue.
Wait, so is it ‘er’ or ‘uh’?
That 'ø'-pronounciation was on point
He should be glad that he didn't need to cross a river during mid-winter 🥶🥶🥶
Still icy in summer off a glacier
@@dave_h_8742 I used to live nearby when I was a kid. Pretty common to swim in those rivers (in the calmer parts) during the summer. But no, it's not exactly like the Spanish riviera... xD
Norwegian military really are at the top
They are using H&K 416 with elcan optics!It's the standard rifle in all branches of the military in norway,exept they are using 14,5" barrels on the standard guns!
As a former Norwegian UDT, I definitely choose the cold over the hot and humid, 10/10 times. Then again, I'd rather be 30 meters below sea level, than 1000 meters above. I have a massive amount of respect for these guys.
Only time I've undressed outdoor in -35 C, was when taking my diving licence in the Arctic. We used dry suits, so the diving part wasn't that cold, but man... after +20 min diving in 4 C water, then getting back into warm cloths was a shock, I was shaking uncontrolled for minutes. Lesson learned, Arctic diving winter time can be super cold.
@@tor6372 It's definitely not for everyone. We had a joint exercise with some American divers, and they were shivering after a thirty minute dive, wondering how tf we can dive for more than an hr at a time 😂
@@Henoik more than an hour?! Those American divers had an excellent point, lmao. I recall MJK had "minedykker", don't know if we had other UDT teams.
@@tor6372 So, MDK (Minedykkerkommandoen), which are Norway's UDT divers, are not part of MJK, though we do teach MJK in these specific practices and procedures at DFS. Side note: MDK is the only EOD unit in the Norwegian Armed Forces, which meant that as part of ISAF operations, we sent UDT divers in the middle of the Afghan desert.
@@Henoik thanks for the correction, I thought "minedykker" and "marinejeger" was under the same command previously, but what do us Army guys know. :)
You pronounce the ø well and did a good job with the name😊
Hey man. Cool reaction vid.
You should watch part 2 as well! :D
Video name: Most brutal Military test Ever - I tried to join the Norwegian LRRP SQN
And ye, you are saying his name pretty much perfect, natural in the Norwegian tongue ;)
of course the end is a show, but its also a typical norwegian exercise
As far as I recall, these guys were the first ones deployed to the Tora-Bora mountains looking for bin Laden, a week or two before US forces entered the country.
About problem breathing at altitude as mentioned several times: It is not a problem here, as the mountains in Northern Norway start at sea level. You have a fjord and the ocean, and then there is the mountain. I guess the altitude here is from 200 meters to 1600 meters at most.
You should check out the latest video from Magnus where he get his hands (and feet) active in hand to hand combat, and possible compare with your own experience? Even though they where a bit soft on Magnus, they where impressed about his stamina. (And so was I).
Recognized the mountain in the thumbnail and just had to click on this vid. Bardu represent :)
The map includes bardufoss airport. If you land there, and follow the road south, you'll pass by Combat Supply (CSS) almost immediately. Then you'll get to Heggelia, where Signals, my old unit was. And then keep going south and you'll get to Skjold (shield) where 2. infantry battalion and the engineers (good people) live. Setermoen is where the armoured battalion is, along with their buddies. The car they showed is the older Gelandewagen, it's the predecessor of the now famous G-wagon. It's not quite as luxurious, but it gets to places. :)
It's the coldest and shittiest terrain in the county, which is why the army got it so fucking cheap. It gets -30c in winter and +30c in summer. That's probably why we tend to have kinda mediocre or crappy kit, but our clothes are really good. White cammos are just white synthetic fabric you put over your uniform, so you can go with white pants + forest cammo jacket through winter woodlands, all white, all cammo, etc. It takes you like 5 mintues to change, so you just do as needed. The radio is the LRR as far as I can tell. It's a full NATO-spec thing, with all the [redacted] that involves.
What happens if you're a hiker, and stumble upon this area/these guys? Lay low or do a hail Mary?
@@willek1335
The code word you should know is "no play", meaning you are not part of the exercise. Just don't interfere or take pictures and you should be fine.
The Norwegian Army uses Bell 412 helicopters. A shame he didn't get to fly in one, it's fun :) also there is another episode after this one, pretty cool
The 339 Squadron is stationed at that airport. I got a few rides with them when I served. Was great fun!
Speaking from experience the not getting the chopper, and in most cases not getting that pizza at the end, builds resilience, you hate it then and there, but like one of the soldiers said, you get more and more used to it until hard is normal.
Am Danish but we pretty much speak same ways as Norwegians plus have been living in Norway myself... You said Ø well
Skriftlig er det nesten identisk, men muntlig er det som norsk med en sokk i munnen 😅😁
This is filmed around summer conditions to this area, so the temps are not in any way extreme. The elevation is also not in any way extreme at all.
The tough part is the endurance, and mostly hauling the gear up the amount of elevation, and being out for a long time with little intake and also little sleep. That being said this is a pretty simple and easy mission for these guys, which I'm certain they chose not to go too hard on Magnus.
Of course most people would struggle, but most people are in poor shape anyhow so...
Spoken like someone who's never done this type of shit
@@tarettime9392 I'm norwegian, and I know you are not. When you live in a country for 40 years, you got a very strong foundation of experience in relation to different areas, seasons, weather etc. The common thing I see time and time again is americans blowing things way out of proportions. Most americans call snow for storm everytime they see snow in the air, and that always just make me sad. Just because it is snowing, will never automatically mean there's a storm going on...
When I come in to try and put truth on the table, this mindset that has chosen to be blown away will then have to reconsider the lies he/she have chosen to believe in initially.
Most people who sit behind a keyboard tend to chose the cowardly approach, and then tries to blame me because they do not want to believe in truth. I see this every single day, so pick a number...
I know you are here on a fishing attempt, and that's why I will tell you right now that I am only responsbile for finding my own answers in life. You have chosen not to believe in truth, and then you have to live with it. Have a good one.
Nice poetic narrative. You assume so many things about me without knowing literally anything yes I am American, however I do live in the mountains in regions that get a lot of snow (not as much as Norway in the winter obviously). I live near mountains with permanent glaciers. I do a lot of Alpine hiking and backpacking. I was on a ridge like the one they were on 3 days ago. Complete with ice and snow. You don't have to be at extreme altitude for the thinner air to effect you. Around 6-7k feet is enough for you to feel the effects. The average air temp might not be extreme but when you're on a ridge you get strong cold winds that suck the heat out of you. I would say I'm far fitter than most and my endurance with backpacking is average but gaining 3-4k feet with 35lbs is intense for pretty much anymone and the thinner air makes it much harder. They're carrying 35kg packs which makes it even more exhausting and hard to recover from. Idk how much climbing you do but rock is really cold in those conditions it's usually colder than the average air temp around it (except on warm days in direct sunlight) traversing areas that require you to use your hands on rock that cold makes your hands go numb extremely quick which makes the traverse a lot more dangerous. I'm glad a keyboard warrior like you feels justified speaking about the activities they're doing just because you live in the country. It really shows your hubris that you just existing in the country this took place in feel like you know more than people who do similar activities regularly. Also if you feel Americans can't understand cold or mountains and snow just look at the north cascades and the Rockies (which is where I tend to be) many famous alpinists come from my state or come to my state for a reason
@@tarettime9392 I compared what these people did in this video *_compared_* to what they are used to, in which makes that mission a cakewalk. You see a short introduction with photographs to give you a little taste of just that.
You can watch the video as many times as you seem fit, until you hopefully will understand this was only a basic training mission for them which they chose not to go too hard on Magnus. They knew he would struggle anyhow simply because he is not used to this, like they obviously are.
You got to understand that I have nothing to prove to you, but you do. *_YOU_* do.
@@Perception_ god you're a prick. Obviously this is a routine training mission they even state that. This is par for the fucking course for these SF guys. You're the one talking like anyone in a generally fit condition could do this mission. You have at this point gone out of your way not to correct me in saying you've never done this type of shit which is my original point. You talk like someone whose never done intense Alpine hiking/backpacking. You continue to talk like someone whose never done this kind of shit and when I call you out on it you don't claim to have but you still try to put it on me to prove I have an idea of the kind of physical stress an endurance this takes. To be honest I don't. Not when it comes to packs that are this heavy hauling them in plate carriers with a weapon while trying to maintain vigilance for an enemy. I only have experience doing this kind of stuff with lighter gear for fun. You have not expressed even amateur experience in this yet you're passing judgement like an expert. No one is saying this is an intense out of the ordinary mission for the SF guys. You however are discounting how hard it is for a non SF person to do this. You someone with zero experience in this are saying it's easier than it looks. With what experience are you saying that? How many years did you spend in this unit? How many years have you spent Alpine hiking? How heavy is your average backpacking pack? How many feet of vert is a normal doable hike to you? Those are questions you should be able to answer easily if you are actually qualified to be commenting on the difficulty of this at all. My original statement still stands. YOU speak like someone who's never done this type of things
The two guys not blured faces is leaving the unit. For info.
FYI: I grew up in that municipality where that mountain is. It's about 1500M and that whole place is a big valley with mountains everywhere and in the bottom of the valley you have Barduelva( River). That river have its starting point up on Altevatnet and flows down to Målselv. I'm not sure which Istind they are on. There are 2 one who crosses the border to Narvik in Nordland county and the other crosses the border to Målselv ish same height. That place is a paradise if you're in to mountain hiking and climbing. As and English speaker you have a pretty decent pronouncing of the Ø letter. Those letters æ, ø, å are pretty hard for non-Norwegians to pronounce, and others. Yes the Norwegian language is not fun.
6:15 "luckily we're being picked by a helicopter at the top"
Sounds like his first time doing this, usually "something" goes wrong and secondary exfil plan is set into motion
Sleep deprivation and hunger. Two ruthless enemies, but they can teach you a lot about yourself.
Magnus is awesome
Great pronunciation of Midtbø 👍🏻
Hello from Norway!
Skål!
Have enjoyed watching Magnus videos for a while and especially the episodes when he have visited the Norwegian armed forces. I did my service in Finland in the Coastal Jaeger's so different but plenty of snow and cold weather by the coast in the winter but luckily not hill climbing 😁
But Finland does have some mountains by the Norwegian border? Shared mountain ranges with Norway?
@@Bi0m3ga Most of the tops are at the Norwegian side. Its Norway and Sweden that have the high mountains. We have more forests and swamps and lakes instead
@@Bi0m3ga Very very few
Damn im Swedish and i love Finland 🇫🇮 and im very happy to have Finland as our greatest ally, im considering moving there
Theo, what was it like training in Louisiana swamp? Did you see any gators?
I loved the heat tbh and no only wild boar haha
Check out the interesting dark moss/lichens growing on the rocks around the peak. They are anaerobes - Some of the most promising lifeforms for potentially surviving in space, these ones in particular as they subsist on rocks.
Could you react to “our war” it’s about British soldiers in Afghanistan and the povs from there helmet cams etc plenty of episodes to choose from daily motion has all of them on there website there cracking
"Im really looking forward to the helicopter ride back down"
Ohhh you gullible civillian you 😂
Where I live, rigth now..we have about 54 or 5 feet of snow (in Norway), and abot -7 degrees F. And I'm in the eastern part of the country, a few miles north of Oslo. These guys are in the far north....probably late spring.
2:35 hiking is what you do on trails. What they're doing is technically called "scrambling", it's easy climbing in rough terrain with some protection used in some places, but just basic stuff. Basically the challenge of it is endurance, not technical climbing.
I have been on the top of Istinden. Not necessary to climb, more like hiking.
Your pronounciation of Midtbø was almost spot on.
The Ø was perfect.
But "Midt" is pronounced "mitt" like in "mittens".
The "D" is silent.
Nice video.
Oah from Norway. 😁🇸🇯🇺🇸
norwegian military helicopters are Bell 412 and AH90`s
Funny part is Magnus is REALLY!!! fit.. So the dudes that are in that recon division.. damn.. Moe that fit I guess :) Also my friend Thank you for your service
Notice. This was summertime.
Such a beautiful country.
just as a reference, not sure anyone has said this before but, this is as far north in the world as Prudhoe Bay is, that is the north coast of alaska.
Another Magnus ep with the guys from this video - he challenges them to some sport climbing the day after this escapade. ruclips.net/video/UZ6--vpPbzE/видео.html
