Never done dOfE but I’m going straight to silver
N3XUS J1NX exciting!!
Same I have the real one this weekend so I am hoping it will be ok
Minnie Riccevan I’m sure it’ll go well! Good luck!
Yh can’t lie our group failed
Wow
Dude honestly this video has made me so relieved, I’m shitting myself about gold having not done one before but like your video shows the positives
Klutz official hey man it all comes down to the weather on the day and the mates you’re with! Hope you have a great experience!
I’m doing my silver practice in a week and assessed in may! I just found your yt you have some good content my man! Keep it up!
-NHT- Aneeq Thank you, that’s very kind! I hope that it goes well for you!
Tristan Stocker thanks for the pin btw I have done my silver practice and assessed it all went pretty well, a lot better than bronze atleast
-NHT- Aneeq I’m glad! Moving on to Gold or is that the end for you?
Tristan Stocker I’ll probably do gold but my school might not be doing it so I’d have to find a separate centre
doing my DofE Bronze in a few weeks and we are now planning our route. this has helped ma group a lot with ways to keep our energy up thanks so much!
Hey thanks for commenting! Hope you have a great experience!
Did mine last year and after 20 mins of the first day we got lost in the woods for an hour and a half in a thunder and lightning storm 😂 brilliant memories though absolutely loved it!!
🤣 in mine my and 3 other groups all got lost in this place called jelly's hollow that seemed to have no exit😭
Good video. 👍 Pretty nice editing as well. 👌
Cheers!
Just came back from my silver dofe assessment and I cried twice and my foot started rotting from the trenchfoot 😂😂😂
Hannah g Wtf lol.
Ah that doesn't sound fantastic but I hope you still had a nice experience!
loved this😂
Glad you did:)
OH yeah!!!! Where's the bathroom???
FireFoxies Each camp had its own, not sure if you’re actually asking!?
I couldn't do my bronze because of covid so we went straight to silver, it was mint to be fair.
glad you enjoyed, probably worth skipping Bronze anyways to be fair
amazing content man! where did you do your silver dofe and just curiously what school did you go to? any way because you could leave whenever and with my school my team had to leave at an ordered time.
Hey, we did it around the Kent area at Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys - our school was pretty relaxed overall so long as we completed it to the correct standards! Have a look at my other DonE videos :)
i have silver tomorrow so i’m watching this to hype me up
Get hyped
totally not trying to convince myself to sliver after a hellish experience on bronze.
Go for it, but only if it’s with mates
Your lucky the weather was so nice 😞
We were very lucky with this expedition
I've just done my first day of silver training and the expedition is in a few weeks and we're not sleeping bc of corona🙄🙄
Excellent! What do you mean you’re not sleeping? You’re not setting up tents?
@@Tristan we have to set up tents and carry sleeping bags and mats but we cant sleep over
Good luck!
@@emilywilson9113 That's what we are doing, we can't cook food either lol
where is your background audio from?
Which one, I used a few haha! Try shazaming them I can’t remember which ones I used!
damn my silver real expedition is in a week an a half i’m shitting myself because bronze was awful wish me luck
One year late but I hope it went well haha
Any tips with the bronze DofE?
Hey sorry I've only just seen this! Just bring enough food but DON'T bring too much clothing or heavy stuff, our only going for one night which really isn't that long - just enjoy the experience and stay safe!
man i rlly dont know if i should do silver or gold- (great video thanks!)
Don't you need to do silver in order to do gold? We couldn't do gold unless we had already completed silver and if the same thing is true for you then your decision is already made!
@@Tristan in my college you can go straight to gold but it seems like too much effort to me, thanks for the reply tho!
Yeah my mates and I decided not to go further and honestly glad we didn’t. It’s a fun experience but expensive and it hasn’t come up once since doing it, it’s just one of those extra things to mention on an application or in an interview🤷🏼♂️
@@Tristan i want to go to the navy after im done with college so like i was thinking of different things that could help me to get in and to kind of like 'prepare' to what it could be like if i get in coz youve got 10 week training when you start it so obvs it might be helpful for me to be in good shape and become as confident as possible before i start it
@@fernandoroberts3591 yeah actually fair enough my previous reply was tainted by my own experience, my bad. Yeah I have a mate who’s doing well in the RAF who obviously also had 10 weeks basic training and he only did bronze. If you want to do silver/ gold then do it, if not then don’t. It’s not going to stop you doing whatever you want in the future but I’m sure you’d learn a few things from it. As far as fitness, a 3-5 day trek isn’t doing to do that for you, you’re better off starting an actual fitness regime now with cardio and weight etc
How many km did you have to walk?
nicki swales not too bad, about 15km every day!
Tristan Stocker lucky sod i have 15km, 16km, 17km it just gets worse each day
@@tiredhouseparty1404 1 k is nowt
Did you get given them bag covers?
azans number 1 fan hey, yeah we did but they were barely waterproof, they were just to show we were part of the same team. Hope that helps :)
@@Tristan oh😂when did you get them because im doing my practice bronze tommorow and my actual bronze next week
azans number 1 fan your leader may not give them to you, we got given them on the morning we arrived so don’t worry! Hope it goes well!
@@Tristan thanks,ill let you know if i remember
@@azansnumber1fan668 my one is stuck to my bag
Is the lad with the bergen in cadets?
he used to be!
Can you start your direct silver at 18 ?
You need to find a centre that offers DofE Silver and just ask what your options are
@@Tristan Thank you
bro i had no freedom when i did my silver the teachers were in the same campsite as us
haha we had quite a lot of freedom!
Why did only 2 of u have to wear a hi vis
Person at the start of the line and the person at the back, we swapped throughout!
Is it just me that cheated on their phone?
With maps haha??
I did it too. I told the assessor i was "texting my dad" lol
