People train for years to do this - The Spanish Special Forces fitness test

This instructor seemed like he was actually a really nice guy ! Pretty cool to see less of a hardass approach

The training instructor was so humble and gracious at the end where he said you're now his superior. What a gentleman!

The level of niceness on this guy screams competence. I bet he's a monstrous badass in actual combat. That has always been my experience, because exceptional people inherently get confident and real confidence is the opposite of blustering showy insecurity. Those people are Extremely chill.

I had the pleasure of working with the Spanish Army at Qala E Naw, Baghdis Province, Afghanistan in 2013 right before they left, including 9 of their special operations guys. It was one of the best experiences in my career. And I got my certificate in cutting Iberian Ham!

I love when Magnus tries to joke with super serious instructors 😂

I was in the Spanish Army for three years. The maximum amount of pullups I ever did was 20 (with good form). I never ran under 13 seconds. I saw a girl scream with a panic attack in the tunnel (though we did it with more people, going in both directions). This guy's form is absolutely outstanding. You have to have tried this kind of thing to understand how good of a form he has.

The instructor sounded like a great guy who really wanted Magnus to perform well. Awesome job, both of you.

I deployed to Spain as a US Navy Seabee in the mid 80s. I miss Spain, the Spanish People, and of course the food.

I feel like the instructor was a Magnus fan, he sounded like he was so happy to show magnus how to perform the exercises and his encouragement was spot on! What a great guy! Well done Magnus for another military test passed! Where to next?

5:50 very humble man, says he struggles with the pushups too to make Magnus feel better, love teachers like that. Makes learning what he has to teach much better!

This was so cool. Good job, Magnus! I was overseas in Afghanistan with Spanish SOF. They are all really chill like this guy. They were the best hosts and even gave us paella, too ❤

Magnus, I really appreciated your effort in this one, because this fitness test had elements that we haven't seen in others. The tunnel/maze test was wild and was definitely more mental than physical. The adherence to strict form in the calisthenics portion increased the difficulty dramatically. Adding weight to the run at the end tested both your physical fitness and mental toughness. The Spanish Special Forces is definitely looking for a specific type of warrior and I gained a tremendous appreciation for the men and women who qualify, and for you. You are a world class athlete. Thank you for this video.

never stop doing these things Magnus, but also never stop "this stupid climbing thing'

The instructor is an absolute class act. Bravo!

Spanish special forces are one of the most underrated military units in the world. ¡Great video!

18:40 When the instructor broke character a little and said “there’s no fu**ing way!” Because he was genuinely shocked at well Magnus performed was so funny to me 😂

I am always incredibly impressed when Magnus performs endurance tests. It is crazy to have a time like this with no special training.

I was invited to visit the base of an elite unit of the Spanish army by a high ranking officer . I was deeply impressed . True professional soldiers ; capable and dedicated . On par with other elite units from around the world .

A very respectful instructor! Nothing but respect for him.
