@Drake Butler If we're talking like that there definitely are people who took pre training for recon and people who have been swimming / surfing before joining...
As a marine who was with a recon unit, I can tell you these men are a different breed. I was just a radio tech for them, but I saw enough of them to learn a lot of respect for the shit they go through. This is probably one of the easiest things that recon training requires. Just being a Marine is hard enough, these guys take it to a whole new level.
I was A 53E crewcheif, watch these guys jump out of my hyelicopter many times, my youngest son just finished one of the recon training phases, He was explaining these "bobs". Bob were not part of my water survival training in Pensacola back in the day. I had to swim a mile in a flight suit, helo dunker, parachute drag, heicopter water rescue, HEEDS bottle traing, lots of stuff that made me feel like a badass in the water until I looked into the stuff he's doing...
@@matthewcherrington2634 LMAO It's Marine Basic Recon school dude. You're going to seriously correct a Marine who was attached to a Recon Battalion... SMH BTW, SEAL training, if you didn't know was originally blue-printed off of Force Recon training. That's the shit they keep hush hush.
@@waterbottlecrinkle6973 we grew up in a low income community. Urban environment. We had a community pool but it was hood af and crowded, so no “real” swimming could be had. We had the beach like 45+min away but like most folks, we just kept it waist deep in water. So most never really got too familiar or comfortable with swimming. When I got to Marine bootcamp, reality set in when I saw us black and brown folk sinking like rocks and stressing all night if we were gonna pass swim qual. When I got to the Marine corps fleet, one of my boys taught me how to swim in one of the pools on base, on the weekends as part of our post lift cardio No one else was there, just me and my two boys, and they guided me how to properly tread water, how get comfortable with the water and not panic, and how to use proper technique. Legit knowing and not knowing.
They’re tied. Just not tight. The goal of this portion of training is to not panic and not break that knot. You can separate that knot if you want to but it does not look good and will give you extra punishment.
@@TribeofSoul I don’t know about him but I just kept jumping off the bottom with my feet then when I would get to air I would scream help and take as a big of a breath as I could before sinking back down again, and that whole cycle went on for about 5 minutes until a life guard came and saved me, my dad was too busy playing with his new gf to even notice.
The hardest part of this is the mental aspect. If you look, they're not exerting too much energy. Like most things in the water, don't panic, don't thrash, work with the water not against it.
If their hands rent tied then I don’t understand the point or what’s happening to complete the mission/training? They are just bouncing in the pool. Some drop their ropes and get masks some don’t? I have mad respect for them not down playing just trying to understand
@@GalaxyFluke The rope is simply there to force them not to use their hands but in the case of they have to use their hands where they Slip in the water and can't correct themselves et cetera .. But what I collect is that it's really just about perseverance it's having the wheel power not to let go of the rope and keep on jumping up-and-down in the water keeping yourself upright and straight Ideally this exercise both works out your legs and helps swift mobility And balance I recommend trying it
@@onedirtrider thanks! My brain was trying to find a specific tasks but understand the work out and teachings of mind/body control. I’m personally a fish in the water and have been since a baby. I do deep underwater weighted aerobics diving to retrieve weights and such and push off so this would be day at the park for me even with holding the ropes. However, If my hands were actually tied and I had escape them being tied is another story 😂
@@onedirtrider I’ll add I literally grew up at a private pool playing gator with the boys and we had extra X rule to normal game of gator and you could swim out of the rope in deep end (couldn’t take breathe over there just swim underwater) and if someone tagged you, you could wrestle them and if you pushed their head up on the other side of the rope but your face doesn’t come up and you make it to the other side then your good. So many run on sentences but just remembered fun memory thought I’d share. Fun days growing up in small town riding bike to the pool.
It's actually super calming to do this. I do this in the river a lot. Of course not on very deep spots and obviously not tied. The most relaxing moment is when you can rest on the bottom for a few seconds completely motionless no contractions and just feel the current and weight around you before pushing yourself up for air again.
@@jogmas12 exhale fast at First so your boyancy goes down and U keep the downward momentum from the "Rebound" when you Dip in from the Surface again. After 1 or 2seconds U can exhale more slowly or hold your breath (when U feel Like you keep sinking fast enough)
I remember my time doing this it’s not that bad stay calm keep taking a breathe when you come up relax the biggest thing with this is Marines panic and it makes them lose breathing control but SEMPER FI from one of the few and prouder A RECON MARINE
Totally love living in a world that people have to do things like serving and potentially dying in war theyre so cool! Id really hate if they did something safe and innocent like play video games and other things on the internet! The horror 😱 Weird fuck
this is why you need to be serious in life. Reality doesn't appreciate only joy & fun. That's why whoever reaches & train to the top will be seen as successful & cheered because it takes a lot to be disciplined. The marines are truly magnificent people. Cheers boys.
Its a helluva lot of fun though lol. Me and a few jarhead buddies used to practice like that in the deep end of a pool. Feet together and hands behind our backs, take a deep breath and slowly blow it out as you sink to the bottom. Push off from the bottom of the pool and once your head clears the water, grap a quick gulp of air and do it again. We'd see who could go for the longest before having to use our hands and feet 😂😂😂 That's actually how I became comfortable swimming in deeper water where I couldn't touch bottom.
@@djkush8495 how does something like this affect your ears? I assume they/you weren't equalizing doing this, but maybe a BTV/VTO technique might work (never tried this)? Or maybe you just deal with the pressure and have a headache afterward?
@@tommydevine9993 It was only a 10 ft deep pool so my ears never gave me any problems. These pools look alot deeper though which would definitely make it more difficult.
I'd be absolutely terrified. I honestly don't think I could do it without some serious practice first. This is just another fine example of why our troops are the absolute best in the world!❤🎉
I'm sure that this is like everything else in life where if you do it for the first time, never having done it before, it will be hard, but with practice, practice, practice you will get better at it. Nothing out of this world that cannot be done...
How on Earth do I practice this? I can’t fuck up the first time otherwise il drown. There’s so many to watch over how is everyone gonna be safe? It is a matter of believing in yourself and just knowing you got that small moment to breathe. I think navy’s train their lungs too so they can hold their breath for longer.
I practice freediving and underwater breath holds for relaxation in the pool. I can hold my breath under water for bout 2 mins with no warmup, and swim 25 meters with breath to spare. This looks fun!
Understood but playing with life is hard thing to do so if u choose to do then u different that's a higher training it's not them training u that's a high power telling u u can do it ..... The mind is different in those men ..... Do you agree with that ????
Went through Search and Rescue training in the Navy back in 1998, a Marine Recon was in our class, who beat the wheels off all of us in every aspect of the course, much respect to these guys Hoo Yah! Hoo Rah! 💪😁👍
I don’t get it. Some people grow up swimming. That is a stupid way to start. A tough disciplined guy gets weeded out because he grew up in a big city but a surfer dude passes with no problem.
Same, every free time after swim lessons back in the day. Me n my buds would also weigh ourselves with rocks or kettle weights depending if we were at a river or a pool. The rivers are especially nice cause they have the thermal layers about 5 feet down despite not being able to see jack.
I used to bind my ankles with dinky pool rings back in the day and do bobs for fun while getting the pool toys back for the youngins. I think the scariest part of this for me would be getting used to no goggles but if it were a matter of finding them I'd really just look like Velma looking for her glasses. I've had my goggles kicked off more times than I can count during scuba training.
"So you guys just gonna twirl around and stay calm like yall at Disney world in 2 feet of water like kids huh...?".... these dudes are straight cyborg natural adrenaline junkies...." 😂..shout out to them for all they give !!!💯
When you go into the water just slowly open you eyes it’ll take quite a while for you to get use to it. I started practicing when I was 14 and it only look me around 2 to 3 months to get use to it. Now im 16 and it makes it much easier to swim.
They do tie your legs and hands for all spec ops training. It’s called DROWN PROOFING. They have instructors with with scuba equipment under water. Sometimes when they bring them up there already on the brink of drowning. They slap him a little and give him oxygen. In the start of movie lone survivor they show this. The clips in the very beginning are real BUDS training.
Definitely. I swim well and can hold my breath out of water around 3-4 mins and in water 2-3 mins. Love swimming underwater at longer distance. Would be a fun challenge.
Step 1) locate a sharp object to cut rope Step 2) try to get hands out from underneath you Step 3) float on your back You may be in a position where there is no bottom so bouncing off the bottom of the pool won't do you any good.
I used to do this as a kid when swimming in a pool or lake. It's really not hard at all. It's just about being comfortable in the water. They're just bouncing up and down, sometimes having to reorient themselves to their feet. I could easily hold my breath for 30 seconds in these conditions, and with that much time (or more), you're not at risk between breaths in this situation.
I have done this and it’s not difficult at all. Once you understand what to do.. Step one, take a deep breath. Stop two, slowly let the air outta your lungs. This way you’ll sink. Step three, once all your air is exhaled. You’ll find yourself at the bottom once more. Stet four, kick as hard as you can, upward. And again take another deep breath. Then repeat. It’s 98% mental and 2% physical.. I didn’t even need to learn this at BUDS either. I learned this within 10 minutes of lifeguard school.. Same exact thing with the rubber brick test. The idea is to not allow the brick to touch the water surface. While I will admit this can certainly become physically demanding!.. It’s kinda the same principle tho!. You hold the deepest breath you can, for al long as possible. Your head unfortunately will doubtfully be able to stay above water. But tread water as vigorously as possible while allowing your full lungs do the majority of the work. Then when you must come back up for a fresh deep breath. Kick as hard as possible to get that head above water, long enough to get a really good deep breath. And repeat until further notice. These are simply mind games, made to weed out those who are weak minded and aren’t good at problem management.. They effectively want to break you, to see who truly doesn’t want to honestly be there and embrace the suck.. (no homo) 😁
As a surfer, that's pretty much what it feels like to be held under the shore break. Scary at first but you just have to detach yourself from the situation and stay calm. You will never make a good decision while your panicking or scared
This is back in the early 2000's. Navy had a water confidence course where you are doing something similar to this ( not the same though). When you think you are a good swimmer to be humbled real quick. Those who swam competitively in their younger years flourished in the course. But you get a better understanding what you are capable of in water. At one point i could hold my breath for 1 min and 15 seconds with the techniques they teach you (only was able to hold it for 20 seconds prior to the course). ALOT of people quit after the first/second day ( 5 day course). Really a humbling experience. Source: prior Navy station off 32nd street San Diego, CA
I remember doing this in the navy and always get a chuckle when people talk about drown proofing as some dreaded event. Compared to surf torture, land portage, surf passage, and the hour long smoke sessions after dinner every night, drown proofing was a down right relaxing experience
It's called drown proofing, we did this in the Special Forces Qualifications Course. Not as hard as it looks, it's all about staying calm taking that breath in and then letting it out slowly is what will bring you right to the bottom with zero effort and then kick off and repeat.
Just got hired as a lifeguard and soon taking a 200m swim test, Just fyi I havnt touched a pool in like 3 years, I go running all the time so cardio is peak, I get to pool…confident as hell…I topped out at BARELY at 50m and that was pacing myself, I was humbled to say the least
The pool is a great equaliser, no matter how beefed or skinny you may be.

🤣
Asvab to skip class glad I didn’t join this with my high score. I flip burgers now king of the grill
Interesting 🤔
I did this as a REAL TEST at 5 and LIVED. ❤
with all those bare feet around me… probably couldn’t concentrate.
as a competitive swimmer I think this is the only kind of training I could do in the marines
Those are NAVY seals , if ur cmpt swimmer you can run do push ups pullups squats and shooting guns , soo you are simply another youtube like desperat
😮 my heroes 😊 stay strong n stay safe🎉
Cool video!!!🔥💯🤙🏾 Generally how deep is the pool???
That is so freaking hard . The guys make it look easy . I would be freaking out!
Welcome to another episode of humans acting like they don’t have advanced technology
Definitely. I swim well and can hold my breath out of water around 3-4 mins and in water 2-3 mins. Love swimming underwater at longer distance. Would be a fun challenge.
Escape swim...
Bravo for Marine.

Step 1) locate a sharp object to cut rope
Step 2) try to get hands out from underneath you
Step 3) float on your back
You may be in a position where there is no bottom so bouncing off the bottom of the pool won't do you any good.
I used to do this as a kid when swimming in a pool or lake. It's really not hard at all. It's just about being comfortable in the water.
They're just bouncing up and down, sometimes having to reorient themselves to their feet. I could easily hold my breath for 30 seconds in these conditions, and with that much time (or more), you're not at risk between breaths in this situation.
I have done this and it’s not difficult at all. Once you understand what to do.. Step one, take a deep breath. Stop two, slowly let the air outta your lungs. This way you’ll sink. Step three, once all your air is exhaled. You’ll find yourself at the bottom once more. Stet four, kick as hard as you can, upward. And again take another deep breath. Then repeat. It’s 98% mental and 2% physical.. I didn’t even need to learn this at BUDS either. I learned this within 10 minutes of lifeguard school.. Same exact thing with the rubber brick test. The idea is to not allow the brick to touch the water surface. While I will admit this can certainly become physically demanding!.. It’s kinda the same principle tho!. You hold the deepest breath you can, for al long as possible. Your head unfortunately will doubtfully be able to stay above water. But tread water as vigorously as possible while allowing your full lungs do the majority of the work. Then when you must come back up for a fresh deep breath. Kick as hard as possible to get that head above water, long enough to get a really good deep breath. And repeat until further notice. These are simply mind games, made to weed out those who are weak minded and aren’t good at problem management.. They effectively want to break you, to see who truly doesn’t want to honestly be there and embrace the suck.. (no homo) 😁
As a swimmer who plans on joining the marines, I see this as an absolute win
The calmer you are. This shit becomes easy. But yes getting over that transition to what you let disturb your center is the challenge
Getting to the point of being calm is the real training. The swimming itself isn't usually that taxing on the body
As a surfer, that's pretty much what it feels like to be held under the shore break. Scary at first but you just have to detach yourself from the situation and stay calm. You will never make a good decision while your panicking or scared
Yep, I'm gasping for air watch this.geez, much respect 🙏
Sean Strickland could never.
Literally could never I have blocked nose 24/7 and I cough 😂
Quanto è intenso il mio rispetto e la mia ammirazione 🙌 👏 🙏
Hell Yeah I'm Willing to Try!
I could definitely do this, it’s all about your mindset
This is back in the early 2000's. Navy had a water confidence course where you are doing something similar to this ( not the same though). When you think you are a good swimmer to be humbled real quick. Those who swam competitively in their younger years flourished in the course. But you get a better understanding what you are capable of in water. At one point i could hold my breath for 1 min and 15 seconds with the techniques they teach you (only was able to hold it for 20 seconds prior to the course). ALOT of people quit after the first/second day ( 5 day course). Really a humbling experience. Source: prior Navy station off 32nd street San Diego, CA
if you grew up around freediving or scuba it's pretty fun as well.
I remember doing this in the navy and always get a chuckle when people talk about drown proofing as some dreaded event. Compared to surf torture, land portage, surf passage, and the hour long smoke sessions after dinner every night, drown proofing was a down right relaxing experience
I teach my kids to do this in the pool to get to back to the side. It’s a great exercise..
That's scary. Felt sorry for those guys.
I couldn't but my son did. He served the corps for 8 years. Love to see men with testosterone still. 😊 Semper Fi and God bless
I'd love to attempt this at least once!
Man I just want to WANT to try
This is psychologically disturbing. I feel like passing out just watching it!
Kudos to those who attempt, even if they tap out!❤
It's called drown proofing, we did this in the Special Forces Qualifications Course. Not as hard as it looks, it's all about staying calm taking that breath in and then letting it out slowly is what will bring you right to the bottom with zero effort and then kick off and repeat.
Its all mental. Respect the water dont fear it. - Sr. D.I.
These are real men right here
Ya’ll still talking like this?
“Real men” lmao
this is nuts
Last Marine in focus even went the extra mile and escaped his wrist restraints at the very end. 😄
Yes , I have done it for 12 years now.
Just got hired as a lifeguard and soon taking a 200m swim test, Just fyi I havnt touched a pool in like 3 years, I go running all the time so cardio is peak, I get to pool…confident as hell…I topped out at BARELY at 50m and that was pacing myself, I was humbled to say the least
I'm drowning just watching this motherfathers
