Editor's Notes and Comments:
Description:
The U.S. Navy SEALs are members of one of the world's most elite, most successful military commando forces. They are a highly trained unit of tenacious, intelligent and fearless soldiers. What does it take to become the best of the best? Find out as you follow Class 234 in a rigorous six-month training course that will push the men to extreme physical and emotional limits. The punishment never ends from the very first day to the course's end when only 17 of 83 men will succeed as they face the most demanding training of their lives.
Disc 1 Welcome to BUD/S (Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL) - From 'The Grinder' to 'Surf Torture,' the training begins with a punishing series of physical and mental tests that will push students to their limits. And this is just the very first day. It Pays to Be a Winner - With a one-mile bay swim in frigid water, the best students rise to the top...and half the class drops out by the end of the very first week.
Disc 2 Two Weeks and a Long Day - Week One is over, and the remaining students of Class 234 are battered, bruised and exhausted. See how poor teamwork results in one candidate's injury and how two team leaders cost their crews serious punishment. Hell Week - This is the eliminator. For 24 hours a day, six days straight, candidates are put through a brutal set of tests designed to bring each of them to his breaking point and challenge him to push beyond it.
Disc 3 The Only Easy Day Was Yesterday - Students must combat fear and panic underwater as they learn advanced scuba and breathing techniques. Those who make it must undergo a simulated combat dive that demands extreme levels of precision . The Home Stretch - This is the training's most dangerous phase. Using real explosives and live ammunition, candidates learn demolition tactics, land navigation and combat maneuvers. The final hurdle is a nighttime, live-fire mission on a simulated enemy base.

Along with all the fascinating observations about elite military training, this documentary has to make anyone ask the question; why do some people simply refuse to quit?
Since BUDS is voluntary, a trainee can leave at anytime. How come out of 114, only 16 stay to the end?
Human being generally seem able to take anything when they have no choice. But these guys can go home anytime they want. What makes a select few refuse to even let the idea of quitting enter their mind no matter what the misery?
Perhaps even better than watching these boys push it past the limit of endurance is the simple and direct comments of the instructors on what is happening. These instructors could write a PhD dissertation on human nature and it would be better than most of the garbage that is out there.
It's 5 hours - and you won't be able to look away.
See it.
