'Never Quit!' Special Operations candidates experience cold water immersion training #Shorts

"Never Quit!" students conduct cold water immersion during SOCOM Athlete’s Hell Day Virginia Beach training event.

SOCOM Athlete instructors for this event included active duty Navy SEALs, a Tier 1 USAF CCT, USCG MSRT, USMC Reconnaissance, USAF PJ, and 75th Ranger Regiment. Instructors provide invaluable mentorship and coaching to students, equipping them for future success in the U.S. military's most challenging selection courses such as BUD/S, SFAS, PJ INDOC, RASP, A&S, and others.

Events take place on U.S. military bases across the United States. Students are first administered a physical fitness test, and then forego challenging pool training. Students then transition to the beach for a ruck march evaluation, team events such as log PT, and cold water immersion.

The pain is only temporary, mine only lasted for 50 years

After I started Wim Hoffing, I could swim in 50 degree water for over an hour and not feel cold at all. It’s addictive actually. But if I go into a swimming pool at 75 degrees, I feel cold. It’s mental. I expect the swimming pool to be warm but it’s not so I feel the coldness. and I convince myself the 50 degree water is warm and feels so good and it feels warm. Cold water feels so good. Just keep doing it and it’ll get easier and addictive.

He's shivering, water cold. Then right over face. Tough, if you can take it. Kudos to those who pass this program.
I assume navy seals.

The pain is temporary but the long term effects is worse

One of them days when drowning almost feels like less of a punishment than being conscious.

[drrachelblackie]

Holy shit!even at warm temps that’s a tuff

Thats my strat right there, I dont think they do sand angels anymore, but youd make snow angles in the sand (laying down jumping jacks) then make it rain, throw sand on each other, then do it all over again. The point was to get sand on your crotch and armpits so when you started running again you would get a nasty rash, then go back into the salt water for extra brutal pain. The point is that you basically rug burn your skin and throw salt on the wound, causes massive pain without serious injury...😼👍💪

I can’t even open my eyes under fresh water.

I froze my tail off. And we did this early in the morning 3 a.m. when it's dark outside.

58 degree's that's evil. Just warm enough so the body don't really turn on the heater yet cold enough for your core to plummet.

[NEPTUNEM]

58 is better then spend a week in the woods with minimal clothing in 20° during the winter in Fort Leonard Wood

[zacharynunley]

Shit, 58 degrees, that’s a summer vacation!

[Mr.Winter]

temporary? That hypothermia shit you carry around for days, even with a hot shower you still feel cold...

[GarethEdwards-ojqh]

[Kobe_on_the.coyote-pawzzz]

[youngsnn]

[rachelroyce]

It's not the cold that would get to me, I have a huge phobia of fish. So I quit lol

[BanossCalibre]

Where is that? I am one that likes being cold as can be, I tried ice packets and any other cold thing I can find and snow isn't cold it's like the juicy fruit of cold, it's cold for a few seconds before stopping

[LTHALXFOX]

Man that would be nice after a day of hard running and swelling
