That clip of him at the end swimming in the open ocean is one of the most badass things I've ever seen.

Did the ironman with this guy - he's one of the greatest men I've ever met. Keep up the great work, Paul! You're amazing!

"I feel a great sense of having a purposeful life, and I'm very very fortunate to be a part of that." - Master Chief Paul Tharp That right there is one of the reasons why I want to become a SEAL and go through the hellish training pipeline. I want to be an old man one day, and know that I lived a life that not to many people get to live. A life of adventure and risk. Serving the best country in the world. That's what I want, and I'm going to fight to the death to achieve that goal. Let's get that SEAL contract!

Gotta admire people like him. Straight up determination

This takes another breed of guys, i could never do this, they are amazing how much they go through and how detremend they are

Id be scared of sharks swimming in the open ocean like thT

it just takes a certain sort of man to do this. they deserve all the respect in the world

This guy is badass. I have the up most respect for SEALS and the work they do.

That dude isnt swimming, water just likes being around him :)

this sounds AWESOME!!! makes me regret being at college. i'm an outdoors active kind of guy and though i am loving uc berkeley, it can get tedious not haveing a challenge or any close friends up here.

great motivation video, thanks paul tarp !!!

You can see the stress that SEAL training puts on the body when you look in the face of a SEAL

He reminds me of one of sarges in bmq. Awesome mentally tough man more physically fit than 95% of the young guys.

wow looks hard work..the swimming part u have to be good too...train hard to be a seal too...for those who did it...congrats...honor n respect for the good work u done to this country

Awesome. Just remember it's up to you to decide how much you are capable of, not your peers. Put in the work and you will see results.

It looks so graceful

The more tought it is, the more I enjoy of it. Im challenging myself everyday.

Yes, with Don Shipley. Thats Correct. Amazing Guy

Good luck brother. I will see you there soon. Hooyah!

Those dudes are carzy!

Well done, Sir

Good dude!,, very inspiring!

Well im a seal candidate right now, and leave for basic august 2nd. this vid is really motivating.

Whats the baclground song i love it

Inspiring ! Thanks

i have to give love to the rangers their bad ass!!!!

Thanks bro!

Os Seals são os seres humanos mais letais da face da terra. Respeito máximo!

This guy is awesome I'd like to meet him someday

I'd imagine that the JTF2 is just as good and tough. Probably won't do as much maritime, but I'm not sure. The Canadian military is grossly underrated. Good luck

This video is intoxicating. Inspires me to a better a man.

I will go the Army Diving school and i am 44, This video is so cool...

this guy and David Goggins, is who i aspire to be, also.. have you seen David Goggins video like this 1

Genial!! Best strokes...

When I served I was once in a rag outfit at NAS Jax and knew a AO (SEAL). he was newly checked in but assigned to be with the AWs. His rocker said Seal Team 2 and I never asked him what he was doing with AWs, because I was an AO also but figured it was none of my business. He was a second class, anyway we had the PT test one time and we usually would run at a place the squadron had reserved which was called perimeter road, it's basically a road that circles the whole base but it was shut down due to construction. So we had to use the flight line before flight ops started later that morning. This guy just played with everyone, he was in last place looking like he was struggling and all of a sudden he just took off, shattered the squadron record the first time he ran it and he wasn't even breathing hard when he stopped.

I hope more will take the challenge to be a Navy SEAL. We sure need more of them more than ever for sure.

I would really love to stay in contact with all the people on youtube who say they're going to be SEALs and see what really happens

Hooyah, Master Chief!!!

SEALS R PRETTY LEGIT

Dream. Act. Succeed.

Respect!

same here man joining the marines and then try to become a seal gl to you to man

Fresh and cool I love it.

those are real warrior!!

Hey! don't forget someone was filming :P

Im doing the Extreme SEAL Experience next year. I know i have the potential to be something great. Many have told me. I was thinking about being a marine or seal. still havent decided but the SEAL contract is fucking sweet.

Thats very true.

God bless the US NAVY SEALS

@strawberrrys Well, until recently you must have served I think it was 2 years in the Marines before you could even try out for a Recon Billet. And the length of the training for MARSOC (Marine Special Operations School) is I think 7 months, for all the skills needed. However that time goes up depending on what other A schools the Marine attends.

same here brother!

@TheRallycrossKing SEALs do all the most important and secret missions. You dont usualy here about the missions unless somthing goes wrong (Doesnt happen much) or if a retired seal tells people about it.

Damn right, HOOYAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love this video. Amphibious Warriors : It's common sense which in modern times the majority of the population have a serious deficiency. Take care of your body and your body will take care of you. :)

HOOYAH!!!!!!!!!!

The cinematography is amazing!

Dam..much respect

Beast

This Guy is a G

that's awesome

i leave to boot camp in Sept! then the 8 week prep course then it's off to BUD/S

@strawberrrys no sir the training of the force recon is more like the airborne rangers only of the water there are way more people in force recon much more than the seals team it shows how elite the navy seals are.

Master Chief What are your feelings for using a combat swimmer stroke in triathlons? Is it less efficient or impractical? I’ve never learned the stroke and in a snake swim it definitely would be a bad idea I feel.... but in an open water swim I was wondering if it is worth putting the time in to learn? I’ve done ironman and do about 8 triathlons a year. 43 years old. Thanks

the only easy day was yesterday!

This is my future.

@strawberrrys No your are fine, I just don't like those who willingly defend stupidity but, otherwise i appreciate how maturely you responded.

Look out, Michael Phelps!

That's all and great but you have to want it. You have to be prepared for pain. Each day will suck and you will wake up tired as fuck and sore. Be prepared for it.

@TheTTMman1995 Thanks.

I can't fucking wait to ship! This fuels me, HOOYAHHHH!!!

I rang the bell

In buds, there's a training exercise where they SHOW you videos of violent sharks before you have to swim across the San Fransico bay at night with a swim buddy. Is it likely? Not at all, it's just meant to leave that doubt in your mind and psyche put the guys who don't have it to put themselves in harms way.

@12jason223 not really every one is capable but its the ones who keep pushing through the pain and agony

If you look closely... you can see Chuck Norris swimming too... About 200 Yards behind Master Chief... :)

Jason from Seal Team

Running, running, and more running. Then cold, wet & tired for long periods; but you get to blow (stuff) up! Did I mention that with proper classroom education and field training YOU GET TO BLOW (STUFF) UP!

The only easy day was yesterday.

@moe761 amen, if you dont like it leave, no ones keeping you here

my hands are getting tired just from watching this

Eek a shark!

How can we remove fear from water

I couldnt take being cold wet and tired all the time. Im on the highschool wrestling team too..

ima go to seals but im in the sea cadets now when im 16 ima go to the SEAL cadets training

damn I wish I could swim like this!

Its not the bullets, its the mechanics of the firearm itself. The military can afford exceptional firearms that can function perfectly even after being submerged. Earlier firearms cant do this; the rounds simply fire into frame and the chamber exploads.

Kinda.. Hes the head of Pre BUD/s over on NSTC.. SOCS Rhoades is the head of our DIVEMO staff. DIVEMO trains recruits for the most part, and fucks with us whenever they want, heh. SOCM Tharp takes over if you go across the street for pre BUD/s

guys in high shcool watch what ur learing helps u qualify fastr

Hope do be a SEAL myself someday.

isn't san diego Bay,,,,not San Francisco bay?

go to the SEALSWCC webiste and download the free prep wokout routine they have. it will get you prepard for BUD/S

I’d like to quit smoking, from the fact that nobody cares about me to the point that I’m living with a mental illness I don’t know where I’m going with life, currently my biggest concern is how people think they can hold a thought about me

wooooooow!

Awesome 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸💪💪💪💪💪. You can be a human navy cruiser escort .

There are sharks in the ocean now.. You can be a master swimmer going for hours but then get eaten by a shark! In "war" there are 3 teams. Friend, foe, wild animals/mammals/fish.

I cant believe only 323 thousand people have only seen this, while others watch unnecessary things

When did Steve Kerr became a Seal?

yes it's S.D.

hooyah!

Actually, MasterChief PettyOfficer of the Navy, is the highest enlisted rank. MCPON :D

It is the highest enlistee rank in the Navy.

I love the Music. Wish someone could help me with it.
