'This is a video showing some of the warm ups carried out prior to taking on the assault course. This is a look at life course where people who are looking to join the royal marines take a look at royal marin life and royal marine training over a 4 day period to see if you like it or not so you dont waste their time and you dont waste yours, this course gives you an idea of how fit you need to be to join as the marines score your performance in the week out of a maximum of 30 points overall for the week 18 points is a pass entry into the marines 22 is a B pass and 26 is an A pass, points are earned with overall performance and attitude e.g. you gain a maximum of 6 points for 6 pullups. The British Royal Marine Commando\'s are the most proffessional and elite marines on the planet and they undertake the hardest basic military training known to man. This training is 32 weeks long compared to the United States Marine Corps 13 weeks of training and is completed at the Commando Training Centre Royal Marines (CTCRM) to give you an idea about the training here is some infomation about some of the commando tests. * A nine mile (14.5 km) speed march, carrying full fighting order, to be completed in 90 minutes; the pace is thus 10 minutes per mile (9.6 KM/h or 6 mph). * The Endurance course is a six mile (9.65 km) course across rough moorland and woodland terrain at Woodbury Common near Lympstone, which includes tunnels, pipes, wading pools, and an underwater culvert. The course ends with a four mile (6 km) run back to CTCRM. Followed by a marksmanship test, where the recruit must hit 6 out of 10 shots at a 25m target simulating 200 m. To be completed in 73 minutes (71 minutes for Royal Marine officers). Originally 72 minutes, these times were recently increased by one minute as the route of the course was altered. * The Tarzan Assault Course. This is an assault course combined with an aerial confidence test. It starts with a death slide (now known as The Commando Slide) and ends with a rope climb up a thirty foot near-vertical wall. It must be completed with full fighting order in 13 minutes, 12 minutes for officers. The Potential Officers Course also includes confidence tests from the Tarzan Assault Course, although not with equipment. * The 30 miler. This is a 30 mile (48 km) march across upland Dartmoor, wearing full fighting order, and additional safety equipment carried by the recruit in a daysack. It must be completed in eight hours for recruits and seven hours for Royal Marine officers, who must also navigate the route themselves, rather than following a DS (a trained Royal Marine) with the rest of a syndicate and carry their own equipment. After the 30-mile (48 km) march, any who failed any of the tests may attempt to retake them up until the seven day window expires. If a recruit fails two or more of the tests, however, it is unlikely that a chance to re-attempt them will be offered.
