Our King Frederike the 10th is a trained frogman and went through everything you see in the video.
My reply here is not meant to be rude, just informative.
Frederik (Frederike is considered a girls name).
If you meant to use the English version of the name it is Frederick.
King Pingo 😂😂👍🏼👍🏼🥇
Plus his months in the navy, and his patrol on the icecap in Greenland weeks alone with only the sleddogs and other soldiers.
With a speech impediment?
So, how do the frogmen fit the scuba mouthpiece in their mouths? Do they take the potatoes out or are the mouthpieces custom made for danish speakers?
😁
@@peartree8338 danish is not know for being a “potato” language! But just the most complex gramma and difficult pronaunsation….the divers just speak with the mouthpiace in and their pronaunsation improved
When the Terror Attack happened in Denmark in 2015, The Frogmen was deployed to assist the police.
Its also important to note the language the instructors are using. They talk very polite, and they adress the aspirants very formelly.
It's funny that the frogmen kind of look like the wives of the average terrorist.
well, personally i think that if they feel respected even by instructors and commanding officers they have a better tendency to listen and remember... respect goes very far in our society i feel.
As a Dane its cool to see your view on it as a british vet. Also the frogmen are indeed based on the the special boat service (like so many other special forces after WW2).The anglo-saxon really were the tip of the spear / frontrunners ;)
Someone once told me, when it comes to many jobs in the military the physical abilities is not the most important thing. Yes, getting in the frogmen core takes a lot of training to be able to complete their entrance course and to succeed in the main course. But, one thing is even more important and that is the aspirants mindset. Can they keep going even though they are tired, hungry, wet and stressed. It is much harder to train someone to have that mindset, than it is to train somebody to run 15k. You can be an absolute unit, but if you are only willing to give 50% of yourself, that is not the place for you.
The 311 number stated at the start was 100% correct at the time, 2015. In 2013 in an interview, we got told there was about 150 actively serving in the Frogman Corp. The public does now know how many are serving today.
I have a friend who serves. He does not want even a hint of what he does to even other NATO officers and SF. Also I am fairly certain there are not 150 Frøer. There are about 150 Frøer *and* Jægere.
@@PalleRasmussen Also thought the 150 active sounded way too high. You are probably correct.
And just to add to this, they say it takes 10 "Jæger (Hunters)" to 1 "Frø (Frog)", with a Jæger being equivalent to the British SAS. So you can definitely see the exclusivity in the numbers, and see there's not many Frogs.
The Danish Jeagers started as a bunch of halfway farmers,wildmen . So ever since they started only about 1500 has gone thru as operatives. I think ,not sure,but l read that The Jeagers started about a couple hundred years ago. That where they got the name from,as my grandfather told me. Only hearsay,but My grandfather was oldschool not to be fucked with
Our King Frederik did this. He also made part of Sirius Patrol in Greenland. Although he might have experienced it: He never spoke about freezing intimate bodyparts :)
He is NOT a full Frog. I wish people would stop saying he is. He was there to learn what it was, and as part of a PR stunt. He did not complete to course, he was not even asked to to the full initial trial.
It was the same with Sirius. He was there to observe and learn, and he had bodyguards there, he had food flown up, and his family visited him.
@@AB-80Xwhere’s the proof of your statement? According to all known records he is a full frog and completed both the test and education under same conditions as anybody else. No one gains anything from a media stunt like that.
My best buddy was a Frø, and he told me that they often trained with the USN Seals. And it was not always the Seals, who won. No disrespect!
There's no disrespect in that. It is well known that the Danish frogs are among the best out there. The Seals are a different unit, much less harsh. If you want to compare then to anyone in terms of how "elitist" they are, it's probably the Rangers.
@@AB-80X Only two Danish Frogmen/Jaegerkorps ever managed to complete the Rangers course.
@@TheAslakVind
True. But very few have ever applied. So it’s not really a useful statistic, if you know what I mean.
@@TheAslakVind Only two applied. And they finished first in their class
The Danish are tough,they dont fuck around.
2.43 once frog forever frog !!!! OUR KING IS A FROG!
The Danish Frogs are among the best elite forces in the world 🌎
Have looked forward to see you react to this 😊😊
Thank you, been a great start to the series
3.40 its funny how the frogman lineup looks like a model contest for boss!
Frogs are one branch of Danish SFs, the other being the hunters or jægere. They have a very different recruitment structure, where anyone can apply to become a frogman, only trained soldiers are picked for the hunter recruitment. They tried a similar setup to the frogmen, but found it took too much work to get them through the basics, PE, weapons training etc., to get them up to speed and ready to enter the course. How the Frogmen make it work, I'm not sure. The attempt was done to attract a broader skill set to the hunters, but unfortunately didn't pan out. And yes. They are the Danish equivalents to the SAS and SBS.
The corps was established on 17 June 1957, modeled on the British Special Boat Service, the American Underwater Demolition Team and the Marinejegerkommando in Norway.
Denmark is an archipelago. We HAVE to have soldiers, who can work under water.
Our sister and brothers have soldiers, who can ski - in mountains and forrests.
The Nordics have Peace Keeping Forces. It's beautiful - and a cute.
If we ever have to fight on home ground, it'll be a guerilla war. I say, good luck taking on the Finns and the Swedes. It's a different jungle!
But have you seen how flat Denmark is? There's hardly a hill 🙄No forrest, just a bit of woods. Where the f are you going to hide?
In the water :) or on one of the 800+ unnamed islands we have :)
@@Addlcove Exactly 😅
I have just this evening spent Midsommer Eve at Kongsøre beach and wood where King Frederik 10 was trained as a frogman. Their training track is in the wood which surrounds the Torpedo Station, but this section of the wood and some of the beach are fenced off. 😊
He is NOT a full Frog. I wish people would stop saying he is. He was there to learn what it was, and as part of a PR stunt. He did not complete to course, he was not even asked to to the full initial trial.
It was the same with Sirius. He was there to observe and learn, and he had bodyguards there, he had food flown up, and his family visited him.
I don’t even think there is a military uniform that could top theirs. The helmet and net combo with the black face paint is 🔥🔥🔥.
Yeah, a certain picture seems to be used a bit often for TH-cam thumbnails about Special Forces, even when there are no mention of the Danish Special Forces in the video.
Today it is around 350 people that have become Frogmen. Had the pleasure to work and talk with a frogman who was active doing the 70s and 80s, he had some stories, told us they got a new id and background doing that time, one of the things they did was training in responds too counter the special forces from Poland, who was dedicated for invading Denmark if the red flag was raised, stuff he wouldn't talk about, which makes you wonder, what did we do that doing that period.
Just so you know - Our King is one of the people with this education.

We do that Syringe test in all of the Danish defence force
So what? Any idiot can inject himself.
I think the most similar unit to the Frogmen are probably Seal Team Six. I would say the Jægercorps is better in combat, but not in piracy
my father was in another special forces group called (in english) "Hunting corps" i think in danish its called "JægerKorpset"
good video and yes im from denmark :)
We love our "Frømænd" and our King is a frømand veteran, his nick name was "Pingo". He impressed during the inauguration, of which some was public and followed by the Danish tv, where he (being a smoker) sat at the bottom of the pool for two minutes and then took the 50 meters still under water, to the other end. Now that's a warrior King. And you read correct, the Danish Frømænd have some of the highest, if not the highest attrition rate. They are not only considered mentally and physically strong, but very intellectual as well, why all walks of life can apply...
Is selection open to civilians? Or are the recruits serving members of the Danish military?
@@bob-zi1eb Danish civilians can apply..
He is NOT a full Frog. I wish people would stop saying that. He was there to learn what it was, and as part of a PR stunt. He did not complete to course, he was not even asked to to the full initial trial.
@@bob-zi1ebin the video someone said he was a carpenter. And he just wanted to try
@@AB-80X So he must be a slow learner, since he was there for two years...and a liar as well, along with his SOF tattoo....
I am still waiting for the "My War" documentary :D It's uploaded by Metziker.
2.08 comparing them to the small folk in the sas that they are drill instructers for yeah very nice!!
Frogman are hardcore soldiers
Only the best of the best!🇩🇰
7.23 our bornhomian beach cleaners of deadbeats like me is lead by an old ranger who has 40 kg of stone in his backpack and makes us be better humans i love it! our job is cleaning up plastic
It's and old documentary hence the equipment is not reflecting our equipment today.
Long story, very short; Danish Frømandskorpset is the best that Denmark has.
In Britain, they are SAS.
In US, they are Navy Seals.
And yes, Denmarks King Frederik André Henrik Christian is a trained "Frogman".
THX, British Soldier
Bornholm where they´re training is the island in the Baltic Sea where the Nord Stream gas pipe lines were blown up a couple of years ago.
In the intro is footage from a 6 part danish navy counter piracy documentary where they capture somali pirates and free 16 hostages who have been held captive for months th-cam.com/video/Lbhmo1NHiV4/w-d-xo.html
Did you ever finish the Sirius Patrol? I did not see that video?
I have a friend in Frømandskorpset and one in Jægerkorpset. The two units has a friendly rivalry, Jægerkorpset er the gung ho aggressive jump-ou-of-planes types, and Frøerne are quiet, calm, nice and lethal. It is no use to go aggressive under water; calm and deliberate action is what works there.
He did. All 3 parts of all 3 episodes are on the channel.
Yes mate finished the Sirius patrol check them out under videos on my channel.
Nice one always good to have a friendly rivalry, be good to come over and actually check the units out one day
@@CombatReadyHQ Frøerne likes to keep their identity secret. My friend there will not even reveal his identity to other NATO officers and Special Forces Operators. Hard to get to check them out.
@@CombatReadyHQ BTW, did you not serve with Danes in Helmand? Danes and Brits stood shoulder to shoulder in the hardest fighting there, and Danes suffered the highest losses per population. Though compared to what is going on in Ukraine, it was a police action. People did not like it when I called it that back then. Guerrilla screws your mind most, hot war screws your body most.
I think the stereotype of the aggressive Jaeger is more of a Cold War thing, that's at least what I read in memoirs, and that it changed when they switched to a more counter-terror and special operations profile in the 1990s. The old Jaeger motto also used to be "Forrest mod fjenden" (In the front towards the enemy) from their times as skirmishers and shock troops, which they changed in the same period to the current "Plus Esse Quam Simultatur" (More to be than to seem). If anything the current stereotype leans more towards the Frogmen acting like toughguys during these selection documentaries, compared to more laid back Jaegers.
React to the Indian Navy telefilm please
The video is in English, and goes into great details about the working and training of the navy. All of the footage is also original navy footage since the vid is official
when i was in the danish army we hadt way more weight on us for a the marches we did, but then again we where also heavy infantry
I guess for many of them this is literally the first time they've ever worn a military pack, so it probably makes sense to start out "easy". Later on they were marching with a full load. The initial march is also just a small part of the 5 day program designed to test them to the limit. I assume the ones who make it through can march with a heavy pack :)
@@Novacification i agree, and it was not meant as criticism, i was just surprised by it
@@jd4200mhz true, I found it a bit surprising as well when I first heard it and with the reactor noting it too. You kind of expect them to go full on all the way through. I did not intend for my comment to sound defensive, though reading it again I realize that it could come off that way. My bad :)
I just thought you maybe missed the line about the full pack load later in the episode.
This is a test before the actual course begins
I could listen to this guy read a dictionary from end to end and still find it interesting
can you do the UK SAS aswell? im danish but fighting to join the SAS
please do greek OYK next
They are only one company of 150. And there are only trained 5-6 a year.
it is a very small contry
Its correct. We have about 1500 Jeagers/Frogmen combined. Before any force on the planet set boots on ground,Danish has been on recce
Are you saying that the danish do a recce for any military unit of the world before they enter the place?
The Danish king has gone through that and Sirius paptrol
He is NOT a full Frog. I wish people would stop saying he is. He was there to learn what it was, and as part of a PR stunt. He did not complete to course, he was not even asked to to the full initial trial.
It was the same with Sirius. He was there to observe and learn, and he had bodyguards there, he had food flown up, and his family visited him.
@@AB-80X which you can document how?.. he did a full training and exam. He is a "frømand". He trained for 9 months. He has the service no. 210.
In Sirius it was another thing. Yes, he was with a bodyguard. Off course!! Anything else would be stupid! He there joined a 4 month long Sirius Patrol trip. But did not serve as part of the patrol afterwards (normally Sirius is 9 months of training and 26 months of service).
@@HR2635
Just stop.
It is well known within the corps. Here's the thing you need to understand. He was at the time, the future king. Every single time he had to do something, there was a risk assessment. What you do as a Frog goes way beyond this - even at a training level. Before he was sent to Kongsøre, both he, the staff up there, and and the government, had spent months preparing so that any and all changes that had to be made, was implemented in time. How do I know? My family was very close with the former hofmarschall, because my grandfather was a high ranking naval officer and personal friend of his. It was something that was talked a lot about back then internally. What they did with Pingo, and that goes for his ENTIRE military career, was to put him through several parts fo the armed forces. Naval, Airforce and Army. He went to all places. But you have to understand that he was not a career officer or career soldier in any of them. His job, and why it was done, was because at the time, not only was he generally interested in the Danish armed forces, but it was also deemed important to have a king which was in touch with how the armed forces worked. This was in part because his grandfather was quite famous for having a laid back and friendly relationship to most people who served that he came across - and this also meant that he was able to work with them and influence them if needed be.
The former queen and Prince Henrik was the very opposite, and that did in fact cause some problems. Those issues was what the royal family, the government, and the armed forces were trying to solve, by making sure that the future king had some proper insight into the Danish military.
Was he a good officer an soldier? He was fine, average but nothing special. My grandfather personally saw to some of his education in the navy, when he attended the Rader academy at Holmen. Let's just say that he was not first in his class, and that you sometimes get away with a bit more when you are the crown prince.
Danes like the royal family a lot, we are very proud to have our monarchy and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. But it sometimes means that some things and stories get a bit of added sugar on top. Remember how long it took before it came out, that he had actually not done the real Sirius Patrol? For years it was painted as if he did.
Understand that Frederik did well and he did achieve a lot. But for the sake of those who served and do serve in both the Frogs and Sirius, just take it for what it is. We have a pretty cool king, I'm a big fan actually. But as someone with some close ties to the military myself, it does bother me when people, even our king, is credited with things they should not be credited with.
eyyy i know somebody that served with TOT
Im danish
From Danmark🇩🇰❤
Bro 20 kilos ez I wieght like 45kg I was 13 and I was with the scouts up in high mountains in Portugal with 18 kilo and in Denmark we don’t even have mountains😂
Ik it’s weird I weigh that little with so much weight but I’m not joking😅
Btw we walked 60 on 4 days so long time but still
24.00 if you are a oussy you kill your team!
Længe leve Danebro❤

Anders Lassen VC, MC, of the SAS
by Mike Langley.
I believe he was one of the first members of SBS, and one of the highest decorated, with 2 victorie cross.
This is the second time I’ve had to correct someone online about Lassen’s medals. I don’t know where my fellow Danes get the idea he got 2 (two!) Victoria Crosses. He won his VC at Lake Camacchio, Italy in 1945 and two or three Military Cross medals, can’t remember exact number.
But NOT two VCs… come on. There’s only like 3 guys who has ever won 2 VCs. Think a little before posting
i want to be frømand
Think that our king in Denmark is Frogman
He is NOT a full Frog. I wish people would stop saying he is. He was there to learn what it was, and as part of a PR stunt. He did not complete to course, he was not even asked to to the full initial trial.

He is NOT a frog.
If you kiss a frog it becomes a Prince
Frederik is a King!

i am form denmark
I actully live in Denmark
See i come from denmark and i dont have to read the litle text
11.30 our king is better than these guys.. this is basic training!
I Can speak danish i am a danisher
No.. The hunter corps is considered more elite.. Compareable to Tier 1 units like delta force and sas.. Frogmen are comparable to navy seals which is tier 2 units. Not devgru!
Keep telling yourself that.
most of special NATO special forces are equal . Danish special forces are no different from their NATO counterparts. Top of the top NATO SF is propably Delta Force ( the best equipment, training, combat experience ) . people have limits .
