My mom's boyfriend from the ages of 6-10 was a Korean War vet that would threaten my life. Didn't shape me into a SEAL. Shaped me into a survivalist, and a bad one at that. If you want healthy kids, encourage them in their interests. Don't let them quit until they're done. Share as much as you have with them, even if It's almost nothing. They're depending on you for the rest of their lives.
1000% what are you doing now
@@jakezweig Unless they talk to you. Then kids are pussies, especially if they play basketball.
Your strong point is long form podcast/ interview format I’d listen to this for all 3 hours straight
First target I went on with 2nd batt I had my m4, 320, two frags, a 9 banger, 12 40mm, a NARP bag, and then I also carried the ladder off the bird to ladder up on the compound walls, and would occasionally carry a Glock, easily 100lbs of gear. That was in the Hindu Kush at 9k+ elevation
I’m about 6”1 and it is easier to move with weight when you’re taller I feel like.
But the man speaks the truth
This is why they call lower enlisted backpacks 😂
Oh my God I forgot the MRE time hacks at cole range.
They used to do “by the numbers”
Where’d you’d eat one item at a time under a time jack, like “pick up your main entree, you have 45 seconds, go” and do that with everything including salt packs”
I've been waiting for this part 2
I watch a lot of videos on spec ops training and life in the teams and this one and pt. 1 are amazingly good. Thanks for posting these.
10000%
We need the whole thing!!! Great work jake
It is 3 hours long and coming
This was awesome!!!
Ranger School went through RIP, passed. Fighting weight 145Lbs, end of Ranger School, 127Ilbs, no family at ceremony got back in civilian clothes, my jeans didnt fit, my shirt draped on me, got back home 3days later my wife picked me up, she was WTF. She also said i would mumble under the blanket as though reading a map, even saw me get up at nite, , go to a corner and eat the best damn hamburger ever, to bad it was imagination, 11B4V RLTW, retired of course. 83-2004
BOOOOOOOOM
I love that you are from washington state. & the fact that you express how the terrain is unique in charecter building.
You should make a video based on the attributes of warriors based on the state they come from.
Pnw culture builds unique individuals. I hear of alot of warrios talking about their rough mountains / terrain. and to us over here, those are just hills and little creeks.
i give thanks for the pnw for building me into a ruck monster. training my 12 mile rucks in the cascades is a blessing. alabama, oklahoma etc could never comprehend that
river crossing and freediving in the cold. land navigation in thick canopy. brilliant
Shit I only know our state
Glad to see more Rangers getting interviewed on different channels
Haha can so relate to all of this. Great job Jake and Jake !!!
It's so easy to take things we do day to day for granted and normal people bitch about shit, you guys are hero's and are very humbling sharing your experiences. thank you for your service gentlemen
Great discussion - both of you guys have weathered some sh**.
Great interview. Tom from Texas.
There's nothing better than sitting around and listening to 2 grown ass men talk about their struggles. Could be possible but I've never seen this between 2 women.... Talking real shit.
I was in the Army. As a young buck, I thought I could do anything. As an old head, I didn't have the grit to do any of this.
🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
Qq
Dang, you guys are super-human! laughing about it and all, just a Tuesday 🤣
The weight descriptions are like this for line grunts as well. I was a SAW gunner for 4 years.... shit is rough for sure. So I definitely get it. The military needs to revamp the amount of shit hitters carry
Holy hell the canteen messed with me too much 😂😂😂 I was about to write completely different comment but this was much more interesting
Like listening to these stories, just wow.
Hey Jake love the content. The stories bring back memories of my army experience. Reg army 05-09. Two tours in iraq. Many parallels to his stories of wtf is going on here.😂
I went through RIP in early 01 and weighed 145lbs at 5'10" and thought I could run with the best of them till I ran with the Cadre on forced rucks! 3rd Batt was always the hardest Joes because of having HHQ there and than the STB! Cole range was a killer especially hitting the wood line for the cadres favorite stick that you could never find!
Did you go sit by the fire? Did you put your head in the dirt? How about the Ranger toothpick? How about Mr. Third Person, you remember him?
@@motiv8d111 or I've heard the soda/snacks machine Trees
Yeah, y’all can keep all that crazy. I’m good.
Remember USASOC has Civil Affairs, & Psych Ops, 160th, alot of headquarters/ Intel/support, not all hitters
Hey what's going on great video as as always.
July 18th 2011 what's my ship date to Great lakes Illinois. The first couple days we got our medical done, and all the required checkups. After that... The ass beating began. I remember a RDC asked me if I was crazy, and I f***** around n said yeah. Blew my ass up. 8 count bodybuilders for a long time, mountain climbers the works.
I was pissed off when August came I was medically discharged for pigment syndrome....
Yo I realize this guys voice is the same as the TH-cam channel “life is a special operation” this is him!
It may be, but life is a special operation guy says that he was a west point graduate and a green beret at 7th group so he doesn’t match the description
Ranger School sounds rough 🇺🇲🫡
RASP you idiot. He wasn't talking about Ranger School.
@@Ash12428riiight
“Keep your hands outta your pockets, don’t be a punk” 😂
BOOOM!!!!! Fucking fire. 🔥🔥🔥
Hey Jake, love your content and it's so revealing to what nobody (me) realizes about special operations and I've read so much about each branch.
One of your Ranger Bat interviews talked about FNGs having to fight their squad mates constantly. Is that isolated or kind of everywhere? What happens if you get your nose broken or something? Don't you become medically unfit or something? Anyways, rock on. 💪
That is everywhere
@@jakezweig thanks brother
So I’m the dork in the video. In my experience initially the senior dudes in your platoon/squad set a hierarchy through violence or the threat of violence. Then sometime in your first couple weeks you will be told to go fight/grapple someone in a different squat or platoon. Usually the person they pick is a big dude that has a fighting background. You will lose but they want to see how aggressive you are even when you know winning isn’t an option. From here fighting only happens when you are bored or people have beef. We would have squad brawls every month or so grappling and body shots only. We would all just be bored hanging around then someone would be like “let’s go ball up 2nd squad”. Fighting and hazing are just the culture.
@jmc2282 thanks for elaborating on that! What an experience that must be though.
You were awesome in the interview and I loved every minute of it. There are some things that I really don't know if I could put up with, and make it through, in those RASP or pre RASP sessions. I really commend you for being so tough and having that much courage and determination. It really is incredible.
Ya I grew up doing martial arts, fighting in the hood,my cousins, working hard for real roofing my mom's horses etc. They want real MFs dude's, it's why I love Jake he keeps it real
Time doesn't stop. Just make it to the next meal, make it to the rack. Wake up and do it again. Everything comes to an end... Eventually.
LET'S GO CHAMP !!!!!!
I love how the military seem to name the bad ass hills you have to ruck and run up all day. I was in the British army and we had 7 hills surrounding the regiment camp, they were called the 7 sisters and the worst one was named heartbreak hill because it has a false summit. if you had never been up it you would run as fast as possible thinking it's not too bad you would reach what you thought was the summit only to look up and see you were only halfway up it, another one was infamous as recruits had died on it because it was basically a massive sand dune, but every Friday morning we would do p.t before we finished at 12 and it was always either a ruck around the 7 sisters or a webbing,boots,and weapon run we earned our weekend off 😂
Finally! What the brochure doesn’t tell you!!!!
Fire
PASTA TIME!!!!
Jake I would love to hear your thoughts about how soft our military has become and also how this will end up effecting our next war in the future (if you haven't already).
Military will be fine...its America where the problem is
What's the title of part 1? I can't find it on your videos list.
Damn this dude sure is hyperbolic.
Even in a light infantry unit you hump some weight. I was an AG (Assistant Gunner) with the 25th Infantry Division. My ruck with the spare barrel, T&E, Tripod plus I carried 600rds of linked 7.62 and the rest of your gear was over 100lbs. You hump for days.
Anyone remember the RIP days when cadre smoked you for hours the day before the course begins and on day 1 you had to pass the PT test to ranger standard, swim test on day 2, and 5 mile standard on day 3? Seemed like 75% of the class would be dropped in the first week before they took you to the woods to try and make you quit with all sorts of shenanigans.
Hey Jake, are you still posting the Friday zoom recordings?
Nope they are gone forever
Cole Range Where All Your Dreams Come True. Now Go Hit The Woodline.
Sup Jake love you brotha
Thank you for the love
@@jakezweig all day baby, been following, just started talking on here though
I'm curious about the Green Beret in your BUDs class. Did he make it to graduation?
No got med dropped then went army
I hate when ppl interrupt Jake because he doesn’t go back and finish his point.
I will work on finishing
Robbkeele, my dad built me too SF dude he locked out a Sub into Grenada on ODA, was to lias w Seal team 4 but they get caught in storm so they split in 2 went on,crazy story
English please?
@@risky7165 what do you need translation of?
3:45 💪💪💪
What is your thoughts on programs like the ranger blueprint that helps guys like me who want to be a ranger
Don't know, only know the pdf
I went to the real buds, i graduated
The real buds
Rangers lead the way...and have the shortest special operations pipeline. 😅
What’s the smallest you should be if you wanna actually be a asset to your teammates
Again I’m the dork in the video. I can’t answer your question but I can say. I think I was the 2nd or 3rd smallest guy out of my platoon (40 dudes) and one of the 10 smallest in the company (160 dudes). So any smaller than 5’6” and 150lbs you are definitely going to struggle in multiple ways.
@@jmc2282 let’s say your running 50 miles a week 9> 9> 100 push-ups 100 sit-ups 25 pull-ups 35> 5 mile but your light as shit let’s say 140 do you send it or are you better off taking the time to put on the weight
I joined the army at 130-135lbs. I would say drop your running some and incorporate strength training, be able to Bench 225, Squat 275, and Deadlift 315 for 1 rep at your weight and you will be good to go. The minimums IMO at your weight would be 75 pushups in 2 mins, 75 situps in 2 mins, 20 pullups, 36 min 5 mile, 185lb bench press, 225lb squat, and 245lbs deadlift for 1 rep each. Like I said in the video Ruck marches kill small dudes so figure that out before you go.
I knew how to take a beating, I knew how to get yelled at, and I knew how to do dumb uncomfortable shit for hours. So training was honestly just a joke even RASP. It sucks but it’s just a bad joke.
@@jmc2282 is it worth spending time in the infantry to mature or should you just hold off till your 100% ready for selection
🔥🔥
Where is the full video?
The links in the description
I had chaffing on the sidr of my balls. It was raw flesh and hurt just looking at it I had to put non stick pads.
Common
let's go first again
I got in boat accident lost my foot,so don't waste time guys get in there they need dude's bad right now
Gallon of water is 8 pounds. Damn. Just gripping 40 pounds running ur ass off.
SF is having hard time filling 4000 ODA spots,use to be battalion less Seals need about 3000, Rangers 3500 I believe but not all same line job there.. Delta & Dev only got about 600 shooters combined, about 10,000, 1/3 training,1/3 off, everyone not active at once
Mark my words: they are about to bring back the draft. God help us.
I'm 5'8 145 & would put my brother on shoulders and walk up stairs he's 6'4 260. Everyone built different. I would ruck & can squat over 300 tho, wind sprints, I was built for my size.. natty
27:00
9 miles a week lmaoooooo the first Sgt from the pog batt would destroy that guy RAKKASAN.
Ok dork
Met some RAKKASANs are a cult lol met some 101 grunts from there.. jesus ... lol
A dude at basic miscounted(lost count) on my PRT by 30 on both my pushups and sit-ups. If I exposed him they would have kicked him out(It was the last PRT) due to the scandal that happened before we got there when dudes were doing 20 push-ups then their partners would say they did like 57 or something. That dude that lost count on my PRT didn't get triple digits on anything like I did and he wants to go to buds but he is fat 😂 he never apologized or asked how many pushups and sit-ups i did even though I did 113 pushups and 95 sit-ups. I let it slide because the numbers he gave were passing (71 pushups & 71 sit-ups) the RDCs knew he was lying and asked me if he gave accurate numbers and I said yes because he looked soo scared because he knew he f***ked up 😂. The common thing people do on the PRTs back then was do the passing numbers then stop 😅 and do no more. IDK if I should have exposed him and got him kicked out for that but that PRT scores he gave are on my records and the rest are outstanding highs 😎 but idk if it was worth his career.
Did you make it?
@@jakezweig Navy basic training is a cake walk, I made it with ease 👍🏽 Corps School at Fort Sam Houston was nice and Field Med East was really fun because I went through with all my friends from Corps School and my platoon was for people with BRC orders after so we were all swole 💪🏽some of us were in SOCP(Special Operations Corpsman Program) back in corps school but quit to do other things or got tired of the grind, I was in 1st platoon and the primary instructor was a BUDs dud and BRC dud and made it as close to a DOR school as possible for us like little to no bathroom breaks or crazy ass kickers for falling asleep in class. I was gonna go SO after but the career councilor said that SEAL is a rate and not a warfare qualification anymore meaning that if I got orders to BUDs after crushing the PST it would be as if I never graduated fieled med or corps school making me not have a plan B if I got injured or something. There was also a year group thing for fleet returnees where you can only go to buds if your year group is open but Idk if that's the case now. I got sick at my 1st unit before my last PST to get my orders and almost died from gad 65 autoimmune encephalitis and had to medically retire from the Navy in 2017.
@@hnlong8531 gotcha get that 100%
I’m calling bullsh1t that this 5 foot 6 18 year old 150lb was squatting 200kg just gonna throw it out there
You are right I wasn’t 18 😘
I was 141 squating 405 for 3
@@jmc2282 that’s a cringe kiss emoji - how old then? The timeline skipped back and forward a lot.
You worrying about another man’s squat is cringe. But I’m an open book. First time I touched 4 plates I was 20, first time I touched over 400lbs in competition I was out of the military and in college so about 24.
@@jmc2282 he's one of those big dude's who can't understand why a smaller than him, even a lil dude is more capable than him
Who’s got 2 thumbs and wants to carry a telephone pole ?
I wonder how the future of special forces are going to be with Gen-Z type people are all you have to choose from.
Gen z is smart enough to understand it’s not worth fighting and dying for your own country that’s hates you, in some pointless for profit war
🇺🇲🦅
🚨Hello Jake Z, I made a couple premature comments on your video. At this time I will take back my words; you are not a pompous a hole 🕳️, who doesn’t know what he is talking about or who has heart ♥️ or not. You were correct ✅ maybe all this SEAL 🦭 stuff would be premature for a new hs graduate 👨🎓. May the Lord keep you in Jesus name!
Thank you a millions times over for giving me a chance to prove you wrong
