lol highly encouraged by leadership aka voluntold

Airmen be like "Rifle? What's a rifle? I can't type with this."

Air drill instructor: "I've seen some airmen more fit than marines." The Marine Corps: "Oh really?"

We did this for the Army where I'm stationed... 67% of them failed.

"they're cross fit ninjas". LOOOOL

Every branch does a job that is needed when it comes to conflicts and missions . If you weren't willing enough to become part of the one percent who make that sacrifice don't speak on what you don't know . We all may joke about are sister services but we stand strong as a one

i like how he talks shit a little while explaining it, lol

I'm Marine, but I love that we collaborated with Airman to have them take on the CFT.

Props to the Air Force for doing the CFT. Nice job!

"wether you are running across a flight line under fire (cough cough never cough cough) or are a marine running towards the sound of gunfire..." lol hilarious

No training we ever did was fun. We trained until we were falling down exhausted. This looks like some PR bullshit to make the AF look better.

The question is, did they actually pass the CFT? Did they meet the proper times?

The combat fitness test was always fun to do. I always loved competing against other Marines in it.

I think its great they want to do our training. We can all learn from each other. I just wish we got to run ours on such a nice field.

Thats cool and all, but what percentage passed?

I love it when yall work together or train together its a beautiful thing 🇺🇸💪🏻

When I saw that man drop the ammo can, i felt a little twitch of "Done boi" cause you drop it you are done.

Good to see My Marine Family doing some Collaborating with our Brothers and Sisters in the Air Force. Semper Fi and Ooh Rah!

Now they'd think they rate.

crossfit ninjas haha

I like to think of it like sibling rivalry. Just know you have to be part of the family to crack jokes. Because I wouldn't let anyone make fun of my brother or sister, the same goes for my fellow service men and women. Don't think you can be a civi and crack on any of the branches. We earned to right to lovingly make fun of each other because of our shared sacrifice.

I've never taken a CFT on AstroTurf!

Go Chair Force!

This is a great event. I think each branch should have their own version of this,

Well put...

i hated doing this one in boot camp -.- it was hot as balls outside the day we did it! i did well if i remember correctly, and you knew you put out if u were literaly throwing up at the end (half of our company was after we finished). it sucked, but after i felt like anything left in my way was easy.... then came the crucible. semper fi

I'm 16 years old in Utah when I was able to the Marines that come to my school let me do the CFT and it was fun as hell

The shade 😎 “Whether running across under enemy fire, or running TOWARDS enemy fire as a MARINE”

respect to those airmen.. now they have a little taste of what it takes to be a marine

Remember, the "size" of the training is important, BUT the useful application of that training is what really matters.

Every week for me right now. Those ammo can lifts are fun.

Two things that come to mind when I see videos like this. 1. Branches need to stop bashing on each other. We’re all brothers in arms. We all stepped up and took our own unique route in the military field. To push and motivate ourselves to seek better. 2. Marines are the best though.

I agree 100%. I was in the Air Force, and some of the guys I worked with were complete idiots. Unfortunately, in my experiences in the military, there was WAY too much of this stupid disputing between sister branches. I've met smart Airmen and I've met smart Marines. I've also met a lot of both who were stupid. The most frustrating was when we used to go party in Myrtle Beach, and constantly run-into young, drunk Marines (and sometimes other Airmen) trying to pick fights. Very sad.

I love that game!

Makes me want to get outside and exercise. Though I may not be up to par with these folks. Good to see those Airmen getting down with Marine Fitness. Better them than me! ha!

Not going to lie. My first CFT kicked my ass.

The airforce hold the satelitte and missile defense system. Without the airforce we wouldnt know if we were being attacked or not. However, every branch has their own capabilities and faults. They are all important and neccesary.

Good for airmen

It's actually a high crawl and a "baby crawl". Low crawl is head in the dirt staying as low as possible.

RUN! the hell they walking with ammo cans for RUNNNNN

I really hate all this Military branch hate... It's the military, every branch should be different, and have different prerequisites, if not what would be the purpose of different branches? People who say Marines > Army, Army < Marines, Airforce < Navy etc are wrong. Like it or not, every branch in the military relies on the other branches in order to succeed.

CROSSFIT NINJAS!! way to go Captain!!

Thats the nicest fucking CFT area I've ever seen.

The passive flame " weather you're running across an air strip or running into the fire like Marines" LOL

Oh this out to be good

To some degree, yes they are done by other branches, but they are not done as well as the Air Force. For instance there is no branch that can strike anywhere in the world as quickly and with greater magnitude than the Air Force.

I would love to try this, just to see if i could do it.

The CFT is pretty fun as it gets the adrenaline up 😂

@Mumwaldee the 3 miles, pull ups and situps is for the PFT not the CFT

That's awesome that they did something like this. Have them run a PFT next time. :D

The most ambitious cross over event ever

the air force doesn't have the youngest guys and it's 3rd largest branch out of the five, not the smallest. You're right though, they're probably a little more selective on who gets in then say the army or navy. But with the military possibly downsizing soon it might be tough to get in any of them.

The CFT sucks. I rather run a PFT....even though 3 miles suck also. That 880....

Less CHEERING... MORE YELLING!!!!

I'm so glad I decided on enlisting in the Marine Corps instead of the Air Force.

Yo are we gonna have some marines trying to pass air force exams next

lol I love that comment "Under fire on a flight line or running towards it like as a Marine" wow that's some shade

those airmen hated life that day. good training!

Next episode: Marines try Air Force Pararescue physical fitness test.

Air Force Definately has the best CAS ever. Drones, aerial gunners, and warthogs... ;)

Should've had them do the PFT

@JahRasta01 last time I checked not just everyone can be a pilot they need to be fit to endure the extreme forces put on their body

Holy crap, I went to boot camp with the Capt way back in 98. Small world.

I think your underestimating the other branches.

I've done that thing before . . I believe my time was like 2:14. But it's been a while so I'm not 100% sure

Air Force has the machinery and the brains, the Marines have the muscle and leadership. If the two of them just stopped arguing for a second they'd realize that they could rain some hell upon our enemies together

apparently they're crossfit ninjas or something hahahaha

i like how they walk with the ammo cans lol wow

Making them go to war without going

0:56 Why are you walking my guy?? LMFAO

I am a firm believer that there should be one boot camp for all services then after boot camp they go on to their individual service training! I am a Marine who crossed over to AirForce Reserve as a Flight Medic. I can attest that the physical difference between these two services is huge!

I like how there trying to act so tough

My last CFT was three weeks before I got out and I walked the whole thing 😕

I wanna try this. Do they have something like this for officers or is it just enlisted? I'm in rotc now hoping to become an AF officer

Why is everyone fighting over who's best? There's no point. If you had respect for our troops it wouldn't matter what branch was the best. Whether you're a lawyer, pilot, or in the infantry, you're important.

Pogs....pogs everywhere.

No I haven't that's why I don't look down on airmen or any branch for the matter

get some chairforce!!! lol

Right sere0321. CAS with the Marine Corps is something we have perfected since the 1930's. The Army Air Corps didn't start working with it until the outset of WWII. The biggest blow to CAS within the Marines came during the Korean War when Gen. Ridgeway took away Marine air assets and spread them for the other services (namely the Army). Air Force Sabres were mainly used for aerial combat and the bombing and strafing of railyards and factories in the North and China.

Good luck.

Best little crossfit workout in less than 30 mins.

To be fair, the Air Force has plenty of people who have made it through Pararescue, Combat Controller, Combat Weatherman etc that could easily pass any physical test in existence lol

The army works with the air force. It's the same thing with the Navy and the Marine Corps.

So when are they doing it in full-kit?

Every branch of the military should have a CFT!

im a marine who served in 2003-2007 and i just enlisted into the air national guard....should be different lol

From my experience and viewpoint as an ex 0331 w the 5th Marines. I think LT GFX is on to a very important point, If you serve or die for your country does it really matter what hat / cover you wear.? As for some of the respondents to this vid (and others). The Military claims to make MEN; problem is they don't always make mature men. I really enjoy the comments section though, because it's such a great pulpit for branch of service and unit groupies most of whom have probably never served their country in any capacity.

Lets see.... Nuclear deterrence ops, Air superiority, space superiority, rapid global mobility, cyberspace superiority, global percision attacking, personnel recovery, agile combat support, global intergrated ISR, special operations, command and control, and humanitarian operations.

I NEVER had fun doing this lol.

1:08 marine Bruh moment in the background

We all have a part to play, and yes the Air Force has ground combat people, Para Rescue, Combat Controllers, Security Forces and more, hell when I went to SF school, now this was a while ago and I know it's changed but half our class were Marines and half were were AF in the end we were all best of friends, many comments from our Marine brothers were dam we thought you guys were just like the Navy you guys can definitely hang, shit I went to a special weapons course and no kidding the instructors rated the Marines better at CQB than the Navy SEALS and us not far behind. I know a lot of you Marines are saying bull shit but we train to fight against the enemies Special Forces groups, Navel Infantry/Marines so we have to be good at what we do with a couple billion dollars worth of Aircraft on the flight line. We are brothers weather you like it or not and I know most people in the Air Force have the utmost respect for the people in the United States Marine Corps. And I know people in the Marine Corps who have really been in the shit and had a couple of A-10's roll in and put steel on target won't ever talk shit about the USAF.

"Fun."

POGS!!!

did not see any cops out there lol we run circles around the rest of our branch haha

do you hear that that's the sound of nobody caring...

Headphone users love this...

0:32 that guy reminds me of coach Greg Jackson lol

My dream was be a Marines

I had to do this exact thing for football it sucks

When that airman picked up the ammo cans and started walking... as a Marine, that made me uncomfortable
