Marius Dreyer was our "sports officer" when I was in the Airforce 5 years ago. We weren't exactly the elite forces, but having him as a coach in everything from skiing to obstacle courses was a great experience. He is just so humble and motivating, even though we were the lowest rank in the military we played ping pong and watched football games with him after work. Amazing to see how he's still going strong

“Fun fact I have the crawling world record” 😂

I may never look as badass again as I did at 7:25 😂 Great video as always brother

[michelleotto]

Military pentathlon athletes: 🔥👊🏻💪🏻🤜🏻🔥
Magnus: I don’t want to brag but I’m kind of a crawling champion
😂😂😂 Great video

[gsfare]

I love how respectful everyone is. Everything said is helpful and productive, it's so great to see, and really imparts a positive feeling!

Magnus 'The Crawler' Midtbø, King of Kindergarten 🗻, the most famous ancient Norwegian kingdom. The legend says he could also crawl up vertical walls😲 even the ones surrounding his enemies' castles 🏰 .

Did you already sign military contract or you coming to visit us in USA?🤘😅

Watched this with my 4 year old and when it was over he said, “Can we watch that again? That was so epic!”

magnus is genuinely one of the coolest, nicest dudes. always supportive no matter who he is talking to, so level headed and genuine all the time, always askes the most thoughtful questions when trying something new, calm and collected in everything he does. magnus, you're inspiring and will always be a fan. Thank you!

As ridiculously fun as this looks, it also seems pretty rough on the knees. Not something to attempt without powerful thighs.

2:43 literally dropping his arms in the background. I'm sure no one has ever done that excercise so casually before.

[Joe-mmlb]

Would love to see Anton Fomenko do this course, great vid Magnus :D

[Nogarda_]

2:42 Is a moment Magnus needs to remember, his face goes from military deadpan to 'I can't believe this, this is insane.'

[goatbloat]

These videos are fun. Ignore people who say you should only climb. I actually want you to train a few of these sorts of things and do a 2 month followup. Andreas too (and of course Marta). Many of these videos tease us with your fitness potential but it is always an "exhibition" one-off. Weirdly, I am always most amazed at how fast you run. I am a bit staggered that you do not run and can run at those paces.

Props to Marius for completing the course twice and crushing the military requirement both times

[MortenBN]

In Rio, Danish soldier Daniel Wollbrecht did the obstacle course in 2:10 breaking the world record. It's on youtube. Really impressive run!

[garretthorner]

21:24 That in sync landing was so satisfying. Great video Magnus!

[scrawlerz]

Magnus, this is really cool! As a military guy myself that just got into climbing, love that you're having fun with the Norwegian army!

[rintje]

This looks like so much fun and Magnus seems very talented! I've asked for it before, but please do a VO2 max test. I really enjoy seeing you do endurance stuff!

Edit: I can see why you're the crawling world record holder now. 21:38 that was rapid!

[luckyspurs]

Magnus was so good on the crawl the second time.

Marius stays so calm when he's doing the course. His breathing is amazing.
