We checked the footage and I did exactly one lap (400 meter) less.

[RubixBy]

Everyone: Easy as pie. Piece of cake.

Magnus: Easy cake.

[askkicjndnnsjidnx]

"feeling out of shape" meanwhile does better than people in shape..

[coltonhurley]

Magnus: I’m so out of shape

All 6 of his abs: (╯ ͠° ͟ʖ ͡°)╯

[boulderingbreakdown]

What sticks out to me is Magnus' mental fortitude. His ability to push himself is a big part of what makes him unique. Of course his physicality is off the charts.... but, without the mental toughness his physical attributes wouldn't be used to the fullest.

[tttITA]

I love how Marte reverts to Norwegian out of shock when Magnus shows his scrape injuries.

[groenhaerd]

Can we all take a moment to appreciate the lovely motion tracked, shaded and color matched boulder grades text.

[hanhosen]

Your time on the 3 mile run is mind blowing for someone who doesn’t even train for it

[phaseU]

yeah, I was a Marine Officer and we had to be in great shape. My best time was a 19:35, so he did outstandingly for not being a runner. But then again, that's what would be expected of a world class athlete.

[juukame]

"I'm so weak" "we're so weak".

Once I realized they're Norwegian, the extreme modesty makes sense

[jamescanjuggle]

Dude those edits for the grade of the boulders is fantastic, good job editor

[pricerowland]

How I think Marte's name would sound: "Marta". How Magnus says it: *"Marugkteh"*

[matthewmanning]

From my experience as an enlisted Marine, I just have a few comments about the crunches to help you get max every time. First, your partner should be sitting on your feet with their legs out to your side and they hold the inside of your knee and pull towards their chest. When they hold like that, you start doing crunches with your butt as close to your heels as you can and as you start to get tired you scoot your butt away from the heels to work your abs in a different spot to maintain stamina. Second, and this is important, your partner who is counting your reps needs to help you out when the verifier isn’t watching by skipping numbers. Counters often go “23, 24, 35, 36, 37, 48...”

[TommyGarland]

"I'm so weak" Is one of the most common Norwegian frazes. Just below "Im sorry" and "ups"

[alexl]

Magnus is the reason I started climbing and I feel great since I started. I feel like it’s been a great help for not only my physical health but my mental health as well.

[jordanspringer]

These challenges are so much fun to watch! Magnus is the man to give 100% effort towards anything!

[musctev]

Marine vet here, excited to watch this one :D Huge fan of your vids Magnus!

[soffwhere]

Magnus: “I’m out of shape”
Also Magnus: *beats my state’s 5k record time*

[davidprice]

Magnus is just such a pleasant, nice, humble guy. He is so much fun to watch.

[AverageAthlete]

I did a test similar to this and the run was by far the hardest part. Your time was great for someone who doesn't train for track.
