The challenge has been made
Watch this video in its entirety without squirming or turning your head away.
|
Couldn't. I was fine until the pull-ups. Then I said, "Nope."
|
i was covered in goosebumps and a little concerned about the second guy, but i did it.
|
That's the challenge? No problem.
Okay, here's mine. Watch pain olympics without squirming or turning your head away. |
well, i managed to get through the whole video without squirming or turning my head away.
and then i thought to myself.. three chin ups? i'm not impressed... |
Heights aren't my bag, so I bailed on the video. Honestly, I really don't understand these type of videos.
/me shudders |
I was confused when hey started hanging from their arms. "Pushups?" I thought. Not sure if I would attempt this, but it wasn't necessary to turn away.

Whoa!
Personally, and I do have a fear of heights, I think these guys are nuts! I managed to watch the whole video (twice) without turning away, but most of my body is sweating with anxiety now. And even though I didn't have my hands clenched, there is still some muscle ache there, weird. |
holy crap....I think i lasted until the still after the pull ups....damn. I really don't like heights all that much. that video skeeved me out.
|
I don't have a fear of heights or of falling.... LANDING, I'm a little afraid of.
I'll be here all week. |
The SEALS do that at jump school at Fort Benning. Apparently jump school is the last thing they do, so they're fully committed to being crazy by that point. I think our towers were around 200 feet... Don't really remember because it was too windy for us to use them at the time. Nuts, for sure.
|
watched it all . squirmed.
|
why why why would you want to do that ?
|
I didn't cringe or anything, I was just thinking about how stupid they were the whole time.
I mean, if the dude slips, you don't wanna be the guy who explains to the police, "yeah, we were gonna put it on youtube." Then again, you don't wanna be the other guy, either. |
I was expecting the second guy to need help getting up, he looked a bit nervous. It would be a stupid way to die. SEALs do some extreme stuff, but they would have had a plan to get down. Also, whoever thinks that 3 pull-ups was nothing, just think of the death grip they probably had on that bar and what could happen if you hands got even a little bit tired.
|
OMG they are nuts and I've just gone weak at the knees! I don't do heights!

The last time I had a reaction like this, I had jumped into an almost frozen lake. Heights suck
|
I had to have a friend play the over-the-city platforming portions of Jakk and Dexter. Watching this video past the start of 'the exercises' is not something that I can ever do. I almost passed out on the first guy's first pullup.
I was trying so hard, too :-/ |
that was surprisingly difficult- but I managed- interestingly, videos that show people being shot dead, which I have watched for work, are not anywhere near as difficult.....
|
Is it the fear of heights? I mean, obviously since the video has been posted, you already know that neither of them falls off the bar. So that's one point against the fear factor. Secondly, you're watching a video of other people doing it.
I'm not good with heights and I wasn't phased by this. Just wondering about the reason. |
