#MilitaryPentathlon
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
Just finished my military service in the air force and he was still working as the sports officer!
Your whole military seems really bad ass..
@@Markus9604 This military guys never get old.
Sounds like the kind of Pro that you want to have in every unit of the military.
@@InNomineCerebri true
“Fun fact I have the crawling world record” 😂
Lmao, Magnus looks absolutely absurd in that video
Looking at 21:38 it seems to hold true!
Oh you too?? 😂
Magnus trained long and hard 😂 for that world record, deserves to drop the brag 😉🤥
@@dave_h_8742 The crazy part is, he didn't even! All the time he broke or come close to break records, he never really trained specifically for that! It's so frustrating at times, if he focused on each of those exercises for some days he could break much more records, he has so much potential and a crazy power/bodyweight amount
I may never look as badass again as I did at 7:25 😂 Great video as always brother
Haha
omg your name has two of the letter i dont have on my keyboard. and your goggle straps are much better than magnus
Man You just nailed the swimming proof
Second coolest person in any Magnus video
Tbh, one to one, you probably can 🥊 everybody on the video. In pure badass-ness thats quite high.
I love how these guys are able to be super competitive with eachother while staying super respectful and supportive of eachother. No macho bullshit.
So true. For the al gorithem
macho is for people without self respect or confidence
Norway am I right?
yeah you like that you softpuss dont you? xD think of it this way: if there would be no "macho bs" ever as you call it then there would be no real power seeking competition & the world records will have no meaning & everyone will be winners, more like tournys will become a big tea party. males are created & ruled by testosterone so its natural to be macho. its healthy to a good amount even. if not pretending. but well we are watching modern norse folks so... yeah go figure ;}
That whole macho attitude is really not the scandinavian way. Bros lift eachother up. We dont push eachother down so we can seem taller ourselves.
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 🏰 .
Hahahhah king of kindergarten 🗻
I love how respectful everyone is. Everything said is helpful and productive, it's so great to see, and really imparts a positive feeling!
I agree! So nice to see friendly competition that lifts everyone up
thats how its like in scandinavia!
Cuz there's no Americans there.
Not driven by ego but helpful to a noob
Exactly! Great great atmosphere!
Military pentathlon athletes: 🔥👊🏻💪🏻🤜🏻🔥 Magnus: I don’t want to brag but I’m kind of a crawling champion 😂😂😂 Great video
Did you already sign military contract or you coming to visit us in USA?🤘😅
We are all awaiting the next Anton/Magnus/Juji collab. :)
I'll be on the first flight as soon as things open again! Look forward to see you again brother
Now your turn!
@@magmidt i have a lot of “cardio” challenges for you!🤘😅 se are going to suffer!!! 🥲🥲🥲
Yay!
Watched this with my 4 year old and when it was over he said, “Can we watch that again? That was so epic!”
Can't believe it, this kids of this generation LMAO
So did I! Now we are building obstacle courses around the lounge room
2:43 literally dropping his arms in the background. I'm sure no one has ever done that excercise so casually before.
In situations like this I always say to myself "Well who else but Magnus.. " 💪😎😁
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!
well said, that should be his goal in life to pass this to as many people as possible. Because few people have this.
Would love to see Anton Fomenko do this course, great vid Magnus :D
I don't know how fast of a runner he is but Magnus is pretty fast for a non-runner. 500m might not seem much but any guy that doesn't have some endurance will lose a lot of time because he will run out of breath.
As ridiculously fun as this looks, it also seems pretty rough on the knees. Not something to attempt without powerful thighs.
Hi there
Sadly my thighs are fat not strong :(
I've done the course as a team in the Finnish Defense Forces, it was brutal mostly because im not in that good of a shape but it was fun as hell!
Tough on everything. If you misplace your foot on those balance runs or the beam .. ankle.
broke my foot in three places landing wrong i a gravel pit like that.. I can only imagine how many injures these guys have.
Props to Marius for completing the course twice and crushing the military requirement both times
2:42 Is a moment Magnus needs to remember, his face goes from military deadpan to 'I can't believe this, this is insane.'
Droped the climber, kept the Pro
I'm not the pro in this video😅
@@magmidt cap you really are
@@magmidt "vs Pro Pentathlete" is the term for it, if you were wondering.
@@Yakushii no...he’s doing a military pentathlon vs a pro....saying military pentathlon again is redundant. The title is correct
@@magmidt but you did damned good for a noob.
21:24 That in sync landing was so satisfying. Great video Magnus!
I was so surprised that they were so close.
In Rio, Danish soldier Daniel Wollbrecht did the obstacle course in 2:10 breaking the world record. It's on youtube. Really impressive run!
My kids will be mad if I watch without them... but they're busy right now, and I'm not. 😁
I think Magnus would've kept up in the second half if he could fall off things faster. The climbing has made him more adverse to falling 😂
It’s weird because of all the bouldering he’s used to dropping down. He should feel comfortable with it. Guess the idea of gravel and no pad makes it more intimidating and you have to get used to it.....but before it started I wouldn’t have suspected Magnus’ biggest time leak would be dropping down
@@youretotallyrightbut463 It's the boulderer's instinct to downclimb a bit to save the knees.
The world record crawler strikes again showing how he earned the title
I'd love to see some Parkour athletes like the Storror team attempt this obstacle course
I was gonna say, storror would kick their ass any day
@@6PinkRabbits They'd be gassed out from all the running. It's one of the reasons that make courses like this tough. Pure traceurs mostly do small bursts of activity
@@6PinkRabbits its 500 m
Great idea.
Challenge accepted
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.
agree , helps us see the benefits of climbing fitness , plus most fitness people are all round athletes so should be interested
3:28 -- wtf dude jumps down from 3.5-4m height
The first obstacle is actually 5 meters. Don't understand how they're not scared to jump from that height
@@magmidt i believe the gravel softens the landing so it does not really hurt the knees. just gotta be brave i guess haha
5m lmao thats scary
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!
Awesome video, it's always cool to see you try out all these different things that test the body out in so many different ways. I'm feeling pretty pumped after watching that, so I'm going to try to bring a little bit of your hustle into my workout today.
Honor to watch such dedicated and disciplined athlete. Thank You for sharing great videos and offer some inspiration.
Greatest crawler on the planet right here
I appreciate the effort of adding different shots in, but I can't get over the different shoes at 18:00 😂😂
Love these kinds of videos where you try new stuff. So interesting, had no idea the military had their own international competitions either. Learned something new today lol.
This looked like a lot of fun.
Perfect timing, I just came in my break. Thank you Magnus you wonderful human!
Magnus was so good on the crawl the second time. Marius stays so calm when he's doing the course. His breathing is amazing.
Gave me a perfect studybreak! Great job guys!
What an informative and enterntaining video! As a military-enthusiast, this was very fun to watch! Keep it up, Magnus!
17:29 looked like a Marvel movie
"really goes to the top score for your first try" "yep"
Military guys are just awesome to watch. They're made of a different fabric and it's extremely inspiring.
Your videos are so inspirational. You got me going to the gym to loose some weight and build muscle. Have been going for a month now feeling great.
Fantastic video Magnus!👍 This brought me good memories of 1988, the year in which I participated in 3 military pentathlon competitions, contributing to the Lisbon military region team achieving first place in the national competition.🙂
Great effort! This was really fun to watch.
You were so humble & did great doing their training, it's time that you get them in your training world & dominate them.
That was awesome! Well done boys 🙌🏼💪🏼 I wish they made this public, looks like a ton of fun!
Never before seen footage; 15:11 Magnus warming-up! ;)
Pmsl so fast I missed it 😀
Please make more military videos!! These are by far the most exciting videos youve made!!
21:39 someone taking his silly crawling world record a bit too serious there 👀
A world record is a world record, doesn't matter how silly it looks 😅 And it looked REALLY silly!
Think Magnus's tongue was firmly in his cheek.
I actually standed up and clapped at Magnus proudly when he for the first and only time reached and even gained some distance over him. It was like "now I'm going full crawler mode" and it was a testament to all the work and time he spent working on it, he beat the Pro on that obstacle, on his own course, taking the lead for a few good seconds, that should've felt amazing, and that's huge
Great to see Andreas again.
The workout is the warmup for this guy. 🙌
Nice to see the military as a supportive environment :)
So much awesomeness in 1 place, great effort Magnus & Andreas, Marius is a machine. ✌🏼
Earliest ever!!! Love for Magnus trying everything
Dude, the production quality of your videos is insane. You are super underrated. I'm telling you, you're gonna hit 1.5 mill by the end of this year fosho!!!
This would be somuch fun if I had an obstacle course like that around here. Such a cool exercise! Very motivating to go exercise more after watching this!
Good hustle Magnus 👌💪
As a former swimmer & swim coach, so glad we got to watch the "pro" swim. Soothed my 🖤. Finishing your strokes and rolling your hips in swimming is just as important as hip and body position in climbing.
Such fun to watch too. Cheers.
Brilliant video as always. Can't wait for an Anton and Juji collab!
One of your best videos, thank you very much! This obstacle course brings up a lot of nostalgia by the way and I so could empathize with you at the end of the course, with regard to that "unique" sensation as if you're about to puke out your soul, which lasts for a good couple of minutes afterwards... :)
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!
Amazing! Love these types of challenges
Watching these videos always reminds me that Magnus is a world class athlete. Kudos as well to Andreas who showed he's no slouch either.
"This guy is made of something different" - Truth
Really enjoy!Thank you for showing this video!
Oh my god. I ran track in high school and the 400 meter by itself was brutal. This looks absolutely agonizing. Good job!
Brings back memories of when I did the obstacle course when I was in the army.....it's definitely gruesome. 😅
Great one again guys on all fronts, advancing against obstacles to the conclusion of the exercise, jolly good show chaps 😎😉
I feel like having a civilian to run against was probably motivating as he definitely didn’t want to lose. Plus having good people to train with pushes you more.
2.32 Grip strength 🤣😂your in your element, and you know it !!!🤣👍Great video 🤗
Done my work week and rewarded with a MAGNUS video. Cant get better.
OUTSTANDING! GREAT JOB EVERYONE!
Wow! Quality stuff!
A genuine and great video as always 👍🏻
Everytime I watch one of your videos I feel so motivated! Stay healthy and have a great day!
Absolutely! 74 with bum knees, do what I can several times a week, gym and par course. Excellent, thank you!
I want to try these. Maybe in my next life
There’s something so honest and genuine about Norwegians. No ego involved. I wish the whole world were like them.
Great Video, so good to see you again Trond, very good explanation of Military Pentathon..!! miss you my friend greetings Raymond
Guys, I think Magnus will be joining the military.
They would win all the wars haha
Great video, this type of obstacle course stuff is really enjoyable to watch like ninja warrior.
Love the vids Magnus keep it up. Was wondering if you could do a video about getting better finger strength and stronger in general :). Or what you were doing to improve to get to your prime or what your were doing in your prime
That cardio and anaerobic endurance from the pentathlete is killer.
I love that they have disc golf at their track as well.
Passion Thank you for sharing your passion & pride for country.
Now this is what I call total body workout and awesome fitness....
With all the military videos, I hope to see you in next season Kompani Lauritzen, Magnus!
love this, love you guys!
I could not physically finish some of the obstacles in that 500 meter course. But I can deadlift a lot.
As a fat weightlifter gal who could never run decently, I resonate so hard with that sentence.
Loved This
I love these videos! Keep it up!
Love watching all these!
You are good if you can do it. You are a master when you can make it look easy.
commenting for the military pentalgorithm
Did not expect the nostalgia of seeing my old UB-corp(Dreyer) from Madla 2012. Awesome video!
you should try taking a martial arts black belt test (karate, taekwondo, mixed, etc.)! as a martial artist, my three-hour test was by far the hardest physical thing i’ve ever had to do and it would be cool to see how magnus holds up!
1.1K’th like. So satisfying to see it kick over. Wow. What a fun, impressive and challenging competition!! So proud of you all!!
Fantastic effort, all around!
That course was so much fun (when you are younger and body doens't take the hits that badly) 😉 Respect for Magnus for doing that - you did it really well if that really was your first touch of that course.
Your thumbnail looked like Gordon Ramsey with a Spider-Man costume for a second there haha
I think the Ninja obstacle course is a terrain that would be very unlikely to encounter, so I do not think you would experience that type of obstacle.
Love this original content. Good video Magnus👍
Great vid I'm training for an ocr right now so I feel your pain. You should take some of them climbing they would be so good at it.
